YOUNG RUNAWAY REPEATS
After a Day of Sight Seeing
Frank Jacobus Cries for
Home.

Life on his fathers stock farm became
so irksome to eight-year-old Frank Ja-
eobus that he decided TO run away and
see the world yesterday morning.
Frank didn't appreciate the contract
he had on his hands, and left home with
no more pretentious baggage than an
extra coat and a couple of shirts done
up in newspaper parcel. His capital
amounted to thirty-eight cents, and to
save expenses he concluded to spend
nothing until he reached the ferry for
New York.
When he reached Hoboken yesterday
afternoon he was SO fatigued and hungry
that he broke his resolution by invest
ing ten cents in cocoanut pie. He ate
this in the bakery where he bought it,
and then started TO -four the town,
The young traveller had only been to
city three times before. and he found
many things TO interest him.
The big ships lying in dock between
First and Fifth street especially APP
pealed to him, and when he saw Ham
burg American freighter being berthed
by the snerting tugs he was enchanted.
The most enthusiastic sightseers get
tired, however. and Frank was no excep-
ton to the rule When darkness fell he
began to feel sorry that he had run away
fro inhome.
Home began to appear a much less un-
inviting place than it had been in the
morning Everything he passed on the
streets put him in mind of it. People
were hurrying home from the ferries.
storekeepers were putting up their shut
tiers to go home. He noticed that even
new policemen were coming on post, so
that the ones they relieved might go
home. As it grew later he noticed fewer
people about
Lights from the windows that he
passed ON the residential blocks shone
kout cosyly. He could think of nothing
but home Emotion finally overcame
him, aud Patrolman McGuinness found
him in tears near the Fourteenth street
ferry entrance.
Whats the matter, youngsteri" asked
the bluecoas.
u want TO go home," beloved the
wonder-seeker.
McGuinaess took him to the Second
Precinct station and word was sent to
| the boys father over the telephone.
The Granton stock farmer arrived at
the station shortly before midnight in a
runabout, and soon had the repentent
youngster under a Buffalo robe and
speeding up the oBuleyard behind the
| tenn bound for home.

UNIQUE ROOM.
It's Walls Papsfsd With Pic
lures Of s, 900 Members
Of the Theatrical
Profession.

Possibly one of the most oddly papered
rooms in the country is that which is in
the rear Of Harry Roses cafe, at No. "a
Gregory street: The walls are covered
with about 5000 heads of actors, ac-
tissses, circus performers managers and
playwrights. The heads vary In size
from an inch to six inches In diameter.
They are all pasted on the wall singly
and are put on go as to form fancy de-
signs. Tie room is not entirely finished
as vet and when completed the number
Of heads win reach. eleven or twelve
thousand.
All Of the pictures have been cut from
Autographs advertising the various shows
in which the originals have appeared.
Mr.. Rose has been at work papering the
walls for about six years and intends
to have the job finished inside of another
year.
Among the heads can be seen those of
the old timers who trod the boards in
one capacity or another from twenty to
fifty years ago, such as Adam Forepaugh,
Sam T. Jack, Rice and Barton, John w.
Kelly, Sam Devere, Mike Whalen, Cor
don and Link, Frank e. Bangs, White.
law and Stewart, Gilbert and Goldy,
Vine Henshaw. Cissy Sheridan, Nor
rissey and Rich, Farrell Bros, and in
Vulnerable others.
& Mr.. Rose was a member of the pro-
fession up to eight years ago, when he
started in the liquor business. He was
at different times an acrobat with Adam
Forepaugh's circus, minstrel with Skiff
q GAYLORD, and a member Of the Key
stone Comedy Company. He was the
originator of the once famous Ross
Brothers aerobatic team.
Hardly a theatrical company comes to
Jersey City but some of its members
drop In to see Harry as he is fa-
miliarly known, and many an old time
yarn is revived and enjoyed, and new
jokes cracked by the old lights and
newer ''yaudevillains- This is the one
place In town where some members of
the profession can be seen every night.
Mr.. Rose had collection of old play
bills up to the 70s, when he lost them
all in the Gault House, in Louisville,
KY, when it burned to the ground. He
now has collection of several hundred
play bills which he has collected since
1870.
A room which is just off of this oddly
paper room Is having the walls covered
with framed photographs of prominent
actors and actresses.

ONLY A SUGGESTION.
But It Has Proven OK Interest and
Value to Theusas1ds.


Common sense would suggest that II
one wishes TO become heshy and plump
it can only result from the food We eat
and digest and that food, Ike eggs, beef
steak and cereals: in other words, the
kinds Of food that make flesh are the
foods which form the greater part Of
our daily bills of fare.
But the trouble is that while we eat
enough and generally too much. the
stomach, from abuse and overwork, does
not properly digest and assiiniiate it,
which is the reason so many people re-
main thin and underweight: the digestive
organs do not completely digest the fissh
forming beefsteak and eggs and similar
wholesome food.
There are thousands Of such who are
really confirmed dyspeptics. although
they may have no particular pain or
Inconvenience from their stomachs.
If such persons would lay their preju-
lices aside and make Il regular practice
of tnking, after each meal. one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, the food
would be quickly and thoroughly digest
ed, because these tablets contain the nat
ural peptones and diastase which every
weak stomach lacks. and by supplying
the want the stomach is soon enabled to
regain its natural tone aud vigor.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest
every form of iesh-forming food. meat,
eggs. bread and potatoes. and this is the
reason they so quickly build up, strength
en- and invigorate thin, dyspeptic men,
women and children.
Invalids and children, even the most
delicate, use them with marked benefit,
as they contain no strong. irritating
drugs, no catharfic nor any harmful in
gredient.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the most
successful and widely known of any
remedy for stomach troubles because it is
the most reasonable and scientific Of
modern medicines.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are. sold
by every druggist in the United States
and Canada, as weil as in Great Britain,
at so cents for complete treatment.
Nothing further is required to cure
any stomach trouble. or to make thin,
nervous. dyspeptic people, strong. plump

MAN IN BlACK's NEW ROLE.
Was Disappointed in Love and l.
Locking FOR the Fair "Giltsr.''

The very latest story going the rounds
regarding the strange actions of the
mysterious imam in black is as star
fling as the others already told. The
story is that the man is slightly demented
caused by being disappointed in an affair
of the heart. He swore that If the woln-
an married anyone but him he would kill
her. 1t appears that the girl did marry
someone else. and this SO preyed on bis
mind that he went insane. It is believed
he is the "uan in black" looking for the
woman to kill her. This accounts for his
peering into the faces Of women and
girls.
Nothing has been heard from the stran.
ger since last Sunday night, when he was
chased down Kearny avenue by a crowd.
The police have been out several nights,
but they have been unable to locate
him.
