Doctor G. Barrows of New York
City submitted the report of case to
the New York Obstetrical Society and
outlined treatment tending to re-
volutionize the methods of modern
medical procedure in dealing with
cases of blood poisoning. 1t would
seem, indeed, that an actual specific
for this dread ailment had been dis
covered Briefly the treatment con-
sists of injection of formalin into the
veins. Doctor Egbret Grandin, presi-
dent of the New York Obstetrical So
ciety, after hearing Doctor Barrow s
report, says: Without further trial,
and taking this case as it stands, l
consider Doctor Barrow's discovery
as the most important contribution to
medical science of this generation. !"
In an experimental case where the
patient was supposed to be dying the
new treatment was administered and
relief came almost instantaneously
with perfect cure within short time.

Down Mobile"

Prominent, dramatic critics claim
that Lincoln j. Carter's thrilling
drama. "Down Mobile,' which comes
to the Grand Saturday, is the best and
most faithful exposition of Southern
life produced in recent years. The
play, which is in four acts, is the re-
suit of months of.character study in
the South, and the characters de-
picted have their counterparts today
in Alabama. In "Down Mobile" Mr.
Carter is said to have not only en-
deavored to furnish accurate portraits
of interesting Southern types, but to
have framed his pictures in surround
ings calculated to show the best style
of the modern scene painters, art.
The result is a series of true and real
istic representations of the Localities in
which the incidents of the play occur.
Theatre goers here will be able to
judge for themselves of the accurac.
of Mr.. Carter's define alton whel
"Down Mobile is given its first pre-
sentiment here,

The Lecture of Father Cleary.

1t is to be regretted that such a
small audience greeted Father Cleary
in his lecture american Citizen

evening. The lecture was a gem of
straightforward, forceful eloquence.
the kind that appeals to the deeper
sentiments of person, and was so
full of sound, practical logic that it
should have been heard by a crowded
house. Father Cleary is one of the
great lecturers oi the country, and
those who did hear him enjoyed a
rare treat, indeed.

Herbert Webster Passes Away.

The news of the death of Herbert
Webster, on Saturday night at IL 80
o'clock, at the home of his mother,
Mrs. E. Webster, in this city. elicit
ed universal expressions of sorrow
from his many friends, with heartfelt
sympathy for the bereaved ones.
About two years ago he felt his
health failing, and went to Colorado
in the hope that change of climate
would be beneficial, and so it was for
a time, but later he began to feel
worse and returned home, since
which time he has made brave fight
with the dreaded disease, consump-
tion, but although everything pos
sible was done, it had fastened itself
upon him so strongly that it could not
be conquered. Friday night he was
taken to his bed, and rapidly sank un-
til the end came.
He was born in this city July 15,
1882, and his life has been spent here.
He was young man of good char
acter and habits, ambitious and hope
full, and his passing away at the
Threshold of life comes as a sad
blow to the grief stricken relatives.
The funeral services will be held this
Wednesday afternoon at two O'Clock
from the family home, Rev. X. w.
Robbins officiating, with interment in
Phelps cemetery.

A new series of stamped envelopes
will soon be placed on the market by
the postoffice department, which will
be of especial interest to philatelists.
Four new styles will be produced,
to sell for one, two, four and five
cents each. At present the stamps on
our stamped envelopes are oval in
shape, while one of the new stamps
will be rectangular, another oval,
another round and another square. IT.
