FRENCH OPERA.
New Orleans to Have q Splendid
Season of Grand and Comic
Opera.

New Orleans, La. Oct. 18.-The las
letter received from M. Charley
impress ario, selecting the new Frencl
Opera Company for the season o
grand and comic opera about to opel
in the French Opera House in thi.
city, shows that he has practically
completed his work.
Over the results, he is in the highes'
degree elatcd. and he makes the
broad statement that never in thu
history of French Opera has there
ever been such a company as he has
been successful. in organizing. He
has been in q position to command
the market and the artists have looked
him up, instead of as heretofore,
forcing him to look them up. 1t is
obvious from his letter that he is
confident of presenting a company
sure to more than make good.
Besides a grand opera and q comic
opera company, he is bringing over
an orchestra of sixty pieces, many of
them solOists, and all selected with
the same care that has marked his
work in the assembling of his COM
pany. At the same time that this
work has been going on in Paris and
other French centers, there has been
great activity here in putting the
French Opera House in splendid con-
dition. Several thousand dollars
have been spent ON renovation. and
an army of artisans and painters
have been at work, preparing the new
scenery for the stage.
The opening performance will
probably be on November q and
from the tremendous interest mani.
tested, the occasion will be one of
great brillancy. 1t is the ambition of
the gentlemen responsible for this
renaissance in high art, to make
this project that broad and grand
thaf it may be looked upon, not Far

leans, but of the entire South, and
the great interest manifested here.
Ind throughout the South indicates
that they are going to be successful
In their laudable ambition.

AN AGED PHYSICIAN
After Years of Experience Gives the
Following Advice.

IF you have anything to do with
medicines at all be pretty sure you
know what you are taking
The Moss Pharmacy say this is a
strong point in favor of their valuable
cod liver preparation. Vinol. Every
thing it contains is plainly printed on
the bottle. therefore it is not a patent
medicine
Vinol contains in Il highly concen-
trated form all of the medicinal ele-
from fresh Gods ~iiverS. hut without a
and upset the stomach.
This is the reason that VinOl &C.
cOmplishes such wonderful results in
curing chronic coughs, colds, brOn-
chial and lung troubles. and there is
nothing known to medicine that will
so quickly build up the run down,
OverwOrked, tired and debilitated, or
give strength and renewed vitality to
the aged, as VinOl.
Mrs. Martha Fraser of Portland,
Me-, writes: Il was all run down
from OverwOrk and had a chronic
cough for years. l had tried so many
remedies without help that l had lost
all faith in medicine. My daughter
bought me q bottle of Vinol. 1t
simply worked wonders for me-: it
cured my cough and brought back
health and strength and l am better
than l have been for years."
We can only ask every one in
who needs such q medicine
try Vin0l on our guarantee to
return their money if it fails" Moss

nream OF siberIan Conquest.

A dispatch from Toxic, says; IL the
Car of Russia remains defiant aud OBJ
durately refuses to take the initiative in
negotiations for peace, Japan will press
the war to the utmost possible limit.
Japanese statesmen are dreaming OF a
Siberian conquest. At the beginning
of the war the most sanguine hoped for
no more than that the Russians might
be expelled from southern Manchnria,
and there was no sentiment in favor OF
pressing the campaign to Harbin. Now
it is confidently expected that Field
Marshal Oyama will capture Hsfbin
within n month. The result will be TO
practically cut Russia off from the
Pacific coast, for Vladiyostok, Saghalin
and Kamcbstka will be indeiensible.
With this vast territory wrested from
the Gar Japan can confidently de-
maud an indemnity.
The overwhelming success OF the
Japanese armies, the headl9ng flight oi
the Russian "Grand Army" and the
Japanese control of the sea have all
combined to bring about tremendous
change of sentiment here. That the
government is beginning to be affected
by the glory of conquest was shown in
an address made by Premier Katsura
Friday night,to an assemblageor bankers.
He spoke OF the subiugation of Russia,
and said il wonld take the whole
japanese nation to accomplish 1t. IL
would be difficult. he said, TO say when
the war would end. When the lighting
began all was uncertainty. Ii was like
entering the gates Of death. But the
japanese armies had been victorious be-
yond all expectation.

Mysterious shooting.

The murder Of Gnsiavns Stein, who,
for many years and until short
time before his death WAS German
consul at PusbIa, Mexico. has caused a
profound sensation throughout Mexico,
particularly among the German residents
of the republic. In addition to the
great wealth which he possessed, Stein
was looked upon as the leader IN ali
matters affecting the interests OF Ger
mans and their country in Mexico.
Another thing that has added interest to
the tragedy is the fact that lie was shot
and killed in the palatial home OF
Antonio Conttolene, mnlti-milionaire
business man of Puebla. Couttolene
and his nephew, Francisco Rangel, are
in prison, charged with the crime.
The poiice were not notified of the
murder until several hours after II had
been committed. When the officers ar
rived at the home OF CouttOlene they
found STEMS body laid out on the
handsome mahogany table in The lnxnri-
ousIy furnished parlor OF the man who
is charged with the murder. AT the
iour corners Of the table candles we're
burning. The body had been neatly
dressed, and great care had been taken
TO give It all the care that is usually
given the dead Of the wealthy in Mexico.
To the police Couttolene admitted that
Stein had been shot and killed ia his
home. He said that The body was laid
out by his servants at his request. Ran
gel was present. and he and Coutlolene
we're arrested aud placed in Jail.
Couttolene has made a statement, pnr-
porting to give au explanation Of the
tragedy. He says that lie and Stein
were closely associated in many business
matters for several years, and that Stein
called at hishome to discuss certain busis
ness affairs with him. A disagreement
arose between them. Stein, he says, got
excited and raised his voice ia anger.
Couttelene says that the next thing he
knew there was the report of a pistol
and Stein fell dead at his side.
Rangel takesup the story at this point
He SAYS that when he heard Stems yio-
lent language he thought that Coutieiene
was aboni TO be attacked, and he shot
and killed Stein.
1t is the theory of some that Stein was
lured TO the Couttolene home for The
purpose of putting him out of the way.
The police are conducting most rigid
investigation upon this theory.
