Sam SteePS Lecture.

DR.. Sam Steel lectured in the opera
house to large, intelligent and ap-
preciative audience on the subject
"Home Life in Dixie" He is fine
speaker and an artist in painting word
pictures. His description Of the
times, the sufferings and deprivations
to which the people of the South were
subjected were true to life. He told
how things began to give out that
could only be gotten from the Yam
KEGS by going into their lines and
taking the oath OF allegiance, how
bitter was this thing to the Southern
er, how they came almost to the
verge OF starvation before they would
do this. His description OF how his
mother drew the line at salt was ire
sistble. The good lady had to have
salt and she went in the lines and
got it, but did not take the oath.
Everyone was well pleased with the
lecture.
We had the pleasure of meeting
DR.. Steel personally, and find him as
pleasant and entertaining in conver-
sation as on the platform. We hope
to see him i'm Union again.

"r I WERE KING"

No dramatic artist visiting this city
in years has been looked forward to
with greater interest than to the COM
ing of e. H. Sothern, and his appear
ance July at the Spokane theater
will be the feature of the summer
season. The fact that he presents
Justin Huntly McCarthy's four-act
drama, IF 1 Were King" gives Addi-
tional interest to his coming. This
play is by general consent admitted
to be not only the greatest success
Sothern has ever had but by general
consent of critics and the public alike
to be the best seen on the stage dur
ing the last two seasons. 1t is de-
scribed as a strong, clean, wholesome
play of absorbing interest, told in
language conspicuous for its beauty
of style and poetic imagination.
The central figure is that remark
able character of the fifteenth CEN
fury, the vagabond poet. Francois VII
Ion. He is seen first as the poet, next
as the grand constable of France.
winning the love of the noblest and
| fairest lady of the court. A charm
ing vein of comedy runs through the
play and Mr.. Sothern never had a
part that suited him better.

HIs IAsr xoFE RHAIxxED.

(From the Sentinel, GebO, Mont.)
In the first opening of Oklahoma to
settlers in 1889, the editor of this
paper was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim he encoun-
tered much bad water. which, to-
gether with the severe heat, gave him
q very severe diarrhoea, which it
seemed almost impossible to check,
and along in June the case became
so bad he expected to die. One day
one of his nefghbors brought him one
small bottle Of Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy as a
last hope. A big dose was given him
while he was rolling about on the
ground in great agony. and In q few
minutes the dose was repeated. The
good effect of the medicine was soon
noticed and within an hour the pa
tient was taking his first sound sleep
for a fortnight. That one little bottle
worked u complete cure. and he can
not help but feel grateful. The sea-
son for bowel disorders being at hand
suggests this item. For sale by all
druggists.
