THE GOULD BOYS CAR.
TraveIing West in One That Serves
 As SchooIroom of Railroading.

From the New York American.
 'We expect to go all over the west, south and southwest, and we should have a bully good time"
 That was the remark made by King don Gould, with the approval of his brother, Jay, before the boys followed their father, George J. Gould, into the handsomely equipped touring Ata- lanta, at the West Shore depot yesterday afternoon.
 Mir. Gould stated that, with his sons, he contemplated travelling over all his lines, but, owing to the probability of being called back to New York at any moment he had not arranged the com- plete itinerary.
 "We will go direct to Detroit from New York" said MT. Gould, but where we will go after that cannot tell"
 The party Is made up only of MT. Gould and his sons, and the trip Is for the pur- pose of giving the young men a chance to study the workings of the vast net work of Gould lines throughout the coun- try Incidentally, MT. Gould will trans act some business but the most of his time will be spent in instructing his sons fin the details of railroad management
 The Atalanta was attached to the Con- tinental Limited which left the West Shore depot at o'clock, and which is due in Detroit at 7:30 o'clock this morn- ing.
 Dixon, MT. Gould's favorite chef. was busy preparing dinner before the limited pulled out and he exhibited with a great deal of pride the well-stocked larder that had been arranged for the trip. MT.

Father Zahm Says the Action of Gov

Paris, April 1.-The Very Rev. Dr. John zahm of Notre Dame, Ind provincial of the Congregation of the Holy Cross of the United States, has arrived here after visiting the branches of the order in France, which Is among. those ordered to disband. He is continuing making ar arrangements to send large number of the members to the United States.
 When Father Zahm was seen at the Academy of the Holy Cross here. which is the second largest in France, the place showed signs of confusion and disorder following the notification to disperse
 Dr. zahm spoke more in terms of pity than bitterness. He said this and other academies represented the life work of those who had been ordered to disband. The effect would be particularly severe on the old men and on the sisters of the female orders. They retain only their personal belongings and lose their schools and properties and buildings, and here after will be unable to wear the habit of the order or continue worK as members of the congregation

He will appear at the Jefferson theatre Tuesday April 21, in Rip Van Wrinkle" the char aeter which has made this play famous. There is nothing this favorite actor does that has not the imprint of his own genial and artistic nature. His own soul is as if It were stamped on the work. All the humor, facility, humanity and tender heartedness of the man are woven into his characterizations. and the art and skill employed in doing this are of school peculiarly and solely his own. This Is particularly true of Rip Van Winkle' in which he appears here and which is favorite role with him.

Joseph Jefferson.

Joseph Jefferson is the foremost figure on the American stage today. He stands for all that is artistic ideal, clean and pure in modern dramatic production, and his fame and popularity extend even far beyond the theatres going public into the large class who are never attracted to a play except when it represents the rare qualities enumerated above and which are recognized everywhere as the trade marks of MT Jefferson's performances. No other actor of the past or present century has been so close to the hearts of the people or so universally and dearly beloved.
 His engagement here is an event. Local theatre-goers recognize that there is but one Joseph Jefferson. and that as his years have far exceeded the scriptural

 Charcoal Is remedy that the more you take of 1t the better; 1t is not a drug at all. but simply absorhs the gases and impurities always present Tn the ston,> ach and intestlues and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath atter smoking, drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and im- proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic.
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels: it tllsinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another but probably the best char coal and the most for the money is in Stuarts Absorbent Lozenges: they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal. and other harmless antiseptics fin tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tastir lozenges. the char coal being mixed with honey.
