MINSTRELS TONIGHT.
The Great Al. q. Fields Company at
the Academy OF Music.

The AL. G.. Field Greater Minstrels
who are here tonight have made the
ovcal music of their splendid enter
tainment one of it's chief features. The
singing contingent is larger and more
talented than was ever brought to-
gether with a minstrel company.
1t has always been the purpose of
this popular organization to offer the
latest ballads of the day by the best
singers. With this end in view, Reese
PreSSor, the eminent tenor, the best
singer of the simple, touching melo-
dies of the day, has been re-enged.
He stands pre-eminent among tenors.
Walter Rose, a tenor robuSto, has sung
his way into popular favor throughout
the country. His classical selections
are a revelation to his auditors. The
powerful baritone of Walter Brood
well has made him famous. Herbert
Wilson, alto, has remarkable voice
and is one of the song hits of the bill.
VIM. Moore has made his mark dur
ing the years he has appeared as a
tenor soloiSt; for his clear pure voice
has a charm for all. b. S. Carnes,
contra bass, adds to the general pleas
ing effect of the singing. Paul La
Londe has a powerful basso profundo
voice which has established his repu-
tation throughout the country. A score
of twenty cultured singers completes
the great vocal contingent of the AL
G.. Field Greater Minstrels.

WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall.
1t was tile universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure~ail
and mind you, this old-fashioned rem
edy was not without merit
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects Of sulphur in a palatable, con-
Centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a table
spoonful of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium sui
phide) and sold in drugs stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
let's and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con-
centrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily Vigor and
liver, and excretory organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dOsed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
er of sulphur were often worse than
the disease, and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
of sulphur, Of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used.
They are the natural antidOte for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in
a way that often surprises patient
and physician alike.
DR.. r. NJ wilkins while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form. He says:
"FOr liver, kidney and blood troubles,
especially when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, / have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
even deep-seated carbuncles, L have
repeatedly seen them dry up and dis
appear in four or five days, leaving
the skin clear and smooth. Although
Stuart's Calcium Waters is a pro-
prietary article. and sold by druggists,
and for that reason tabooed by many
physicians, yet l know of nothing so
sa fe and reliable for constipation, liver
and kidney troubles and especially in
all forms of skin disease as this rem
edy."
At any rate people who are tired
of pills, cathartics and so-calied blood
purifiers" will find in Stuarts CAL
cium Waters a far safer, more palat-
able and effective preparation

New Orleans, Sept. 15.-Today's Of

afternoon follows:
New cases, AZ; total to date, 2,505.
Deaths, 2; total, 331. New foci, G.
Cases under treatment $50. Cases
discharged, 1874.
The number of new cases continues
larger than was hoped for. but this
has not had any dispiriting effect on
the people. The same air of hopeful
ness and confidence that the disease
will eventually be stamped out, exists,
and it is recalled that September is
always the worst month for visitations,
such as the present. In fact during
the latter part of August, when the
situation began to look so bright DR..
White warned the people in several
of his speeches that the worst was
still ahead of them and he pointed to
the September records of previous
epidemics. There has been some talk
about the possibility of the grand en-
