"Uncle Josh Spruceby," the first of
the many rural plays now being pre-
scented in the different cities, will be
seen at the opera house Friday night
This production is said to be different
from all others as it contains much
comedy as we'll as pathos, and the
realistic saw mill scene is said to be
the most exciting and intense effect
ever produced. The scenes of the
play are laid in Vermont and New
York, which gives ample opportunity
for portraying the simple rustic char
acters in country as well as the many
incidents that befall the simple coun
try folk that visit the metropolis.

Important Case Remaudea.

Washington. May 29.-The Supreme Court of the United States today re- versed the decree of the Circuit Court of the United States for the northern district of Illinois dismissing for want of jurisdiction the case of the Board of Trade of Chicago against the Ham mond Elevator Company and Western Union Telegraph Company. and re- manded the case for further proceed ings.
 The question involved is one of Jurisdiction. The Elevator Company has its headquarters ct Hammond, Ind, and contended that its Correspondents" in Illinois cities were not its agents. The business of the company was to take orders for the purchase and sale of stocks and grain, the orders or customers being transmitted over the wires of the Western Union Telegraph Company from the various offices of "correspondents" to Hammond, Ind. The decision, which gives the Illinois court Jurisdiction. was not coneurred In by Chief Justice Fuller and Justices Har- Ian and Day.

NElGHBORS MURDEROUS
sLAYs SISTER AND HUSBAND AND
 WOUNDS ANOTHER.
Man Who Ran Amuck in Chattnnooga is in Jail and shows no Thought
 of Contrftion for Act.

Chsttanooga, Tenn, May 2s.-Frank Neighbors, a white man, aged 25 years. shot and instantly killed his sister. Tela Taylor, her husband, George Tay- Tor. and seriously wounded another sister, Mrs. John Whaley early today. Trouble concerning the character or his two sisters is said to have led up to the tragedy.
 With the same ealmness that he ap- pears to have done the killing. Neigh bors afterward surrendered to the police and is now confined in the city jail He was not drunk when the kill ing was done, but according to the tes- timony of witnesses before the coro- ner's jury he had been drinking. There were no eye witnesses.
 Neighbors walked toward the house in which the killing was done. an- nounced that he was tired of the con- duct of his sisters and that he had decided to kill the whole bunch." He then proceeded to the house and car ried his threat into execution. Upon returning he declared that he had "cleared up the whole outfit"
 No other motive besides that he con- sidered the conduct of his sisters to be bad and that he was tired" of their actions is shown for the killings so far as can be learned. Just why he killed George Taylor is not known, since no one knows what occurred in the house.
 Neighbors made no effort to escape. expressed no regret over what he had done and seemed to be perfectly con- scious of the result of his actions. When seen at the police station where he was confined in the city after the killing, Neighbors declared calmly that he had no statement to make and showed no signs of intoxication or in- sanity.

RoAsTs THEATRICAL TRUST.
Mrs. Fiske Makes Spirited Address Tn
 Salt Lake City.

Salt Lake City. Utah, May 29.--Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske. who was paTreu from a professional appearance in salt Lake City through her inability 10 se- cure any of the local theatres, nired, a public hall and tonight delivered an address on what she termed The tneat- rical trust and it's effect on Salt Lake City. Mrs. Fiske and her company or players arrived here today. In opening her address to the large audience Mrs. Ffske said:
 q am happy to say that the theatrt- cal trust which excludes my company from your playhouses is not sufficiently powerful to prevent us frSm stopping In your city on our way to the Pacihc coast. Nor can 1t rob me of sais priv ilege of addressing you"
 Mrs. Fiske said she was sure the local managers would be glad to open the doors of their theatres to her com pany if they dared. but they dared not do so, she said. In the East and on the Pacific coast she said there were thea tres open to independent actors. but the theatrical syndicate had endeav,. ored to block the way to California by holding the avenues of approach so that it would be impossible for an in dependent actor to fill a tour from Chi- cago to San Francisco. The trust. she said. made 1t impossible for an inde- pehuent, actOT tO pidy III hdHsds Oily, Omaha, Denver or Salt Lake. You can readily understand" said Mrs. Fiske. that the expense entailed by the jour ney of large dramatic company direct from Chicago to San Francisco would be more than any degree of success in San Francisco would make profitable"
 Among other cities which she said were trust ridden Mrs. Fiske mem tioncd Cincinnati, Toledo. Washington. nafrnif Clava1aud Torontn MOntreal New Orleans, Buffalo, St Paul and Sacramento.
 In conclusion. the speaker declared that the patrons of the theatres have the right to demand that their theatres shall be open to every worthy actor whose performances they may desire to see. The patrons of the theatre had 1t in their power, she said, to liberate the theatres from any unfair and unjust domination.

MUST KEEP OPERATING.
Prussia Wants no Coal Mines Closed
 Down.


 Berlin. May 29.--The Prusslan Diet today passed a law forbidding owners to shut down coal mines unless in cases where it can be proved that the mines have been operated at loss. Tho law is the outarowth of conditions which arose about a year ago when the coal syndicate was reorganized and e number of the smaller mines where the cost of operation was relatively high were shut down. This caused considerable loss of employment Tn some districts, compelling the miners to migrate to districts where the most powerful companies were situated
 The law passed today empowers the euperor's board of mining inspectors to order resumption of work at any mtn9 mhich has been Idle for six months provided 1t can be shown that the nina cannot be operated profitabty. If the owners refuse the board can institute compulsory process. The owners have the right to abandon their property 70 the State if they are unwilling to con- tinue operations or the State can as q las tresort disposess the recaicitrane owners

 The general notion is that catching cold affects the head, throat or lungs
 It does in most cases
 But . cold is liable also to settle in the pelvic organs and produce many distressing ailments peculiar to tho fe- male sex.
 Pelvic catarrh is medical term first used by pr. Hartman.
 It means catarrh of some one of the pelvic organs.
 It results from a cold the same as catarrh of the nose or throat. Local treatment is of no more avail i'm these cases than in eases of cafnrrh of the nose or throat. Systemic treatment is the only ra- tional cure.
