They Stand Alone.

Standing out in bold relief, aLl olossA and as 8 conspicuous example of open, frank and honest dealing with the sick and afflicted, are Dr. Pierce's Favorits Prescription for weak, oveE-worked, de- bilitated. nervous, rrun.down,' pain Medical Discovery, the famous remedy for weak stomach, indigestion. or dys- pepsia, torpid liver, or biliousness, all catarrhal affections whether of the stomach, bowels, kidneys, bladder, nasal passages, throat, bronehia. or other mu- cous passages, also as an effective remedy for all diseases arising from thin, watery or impure blood. as scrofulous and skin affections.
 Each bottle of the above medicines bears upon its wrapper 6 badge Of hon. esty in the full list of ingredients com. posing it--prnted tn platn English. This frank and open publicity places setree, and Is the best guaranty of their merits. They cannot be chased as pa tent nor secret medicines for they are neither -bet7ag of h1t01eR composition.
 Dr. Pierce feels that he can afford to take the afflicted Into his full confidence and lay all the ingredients Of his medi. cines freely before them because these Ingredients are such as are endorsed and most strongly praised by scores of the most eminent medical writers as cures for the diseases for which these medi. cines are recommended. Therefore, the afflicted do not have to rely alone upon Dr. Piefce's recommendation as to the curative value of his medicines for cer' tain easily recognized diseases.
 A glance at the printed formula on each bottle will show that no alcohol and no harmful or habit-forming drugs enter into Dr. Pierce's medicines, they being wholly compounded of glyceric extracts of the roots of native, American forest plants. These are best and safest for the cure of most lingering, chronic dis eases. Dr. R. V. Pierce can be consulted FREE, by addressing him at Buffalo, N. r., and all communications are re- Earded as sacredly confidential.
 It is as easy to be well as ill-and much more comfortable. Constipat tion Is Ehe cause of many forms of illness. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipa- lion They are tiny, sugar-coated gran lles. Che little Pellet ," is a gentle Iaxa- tive, two a mild catharric. All dealers in medicines sell them.

deserved the liberal applause given II. and the Florens and .fruantho troupe could not be improved upon in acro- batic work.
 The feature of the show. however, with the exception O. the dip. Is the Imperial Vinnese Troupe, aerialists. Their work deserves every adjective that the able press corps of the show can heap on it.
 The races, as are all circus races, are tame.
 The Dip of 1seth.
 Then comes the Dip Death. Miss Butler did not go on v6sterday after noon. A young women. her under study. did. Persons connected with the show say the understudy don't get as much money as Miss Butler. Miss Butler must get a bunch that would make John D. Rockefellers daily in come look like the widows mite. or the understudy Is a vastly poorly paid , person.
 There is absolutely no skill in the act. It Is clean case of disregard for the condition of the neck and trust in the infallibility of the laws of gravity. The young woman is placed | in an automobile car with no motive power and no stopping power. The car is placed at the zenith of a circu- lar sloping plane. The young woman Is strapped in the car. She shouts Let her go," and a man in blue gives the car kick and she goes. Around the circular plane she Is carried and shot into space. When she is hustlins | through the air, she finally strikes a second plane, which takes her to | mother earth. She need not organize a union of Death Dippers. Mighty few people want her joo with all its emoluments.
 And then there are lots and lots of | other creditable acts wi.ch we have all seen before but which always please.
 The crowd was handled well inside the tent and there were no incidents to mar the pleasure of the perform ance. The Barnum and Bailey train left few hours after the night per- formance for Dothan where it plays today.

TO STRAIGHTEN HIGH STREET. Property Owners Start Movement t,
 Improve hOrOughfArc.

Residents and property owners along High street have inaugurated a move ment for the straightening of that street in such manner as 70 provide a handsome thoroughfare in front os their property. rather than eries of ill-matched alleys.
 At the present time. High street from Bainbridge street, as c1r west as Jackson street, is far rom straight There are a number of jogs and off, sets, and it is the intention of thos , interested in the movement. to have them removed as far as possible, mak ing the thoroughfare straight.
 The block from Union street to Ripley street is one of the worst in the entire length of High street, and that is one to which attention will first be attracted Already a number of property owners in the tlOck have agreed to donate to the city a strip of ground off the front ends of the,r lots. so as to straighten the street for that block, and make it full width
 At that point High street is about eleven feet narrower than in the next block between Bainbridge -.nd Union streets. the jog coming entirely on one side of the street As the car tracks occupy the center of the thor oughfare below Union street, there is little room left in the street above that point for teams.
 AS soon as the street has been widened and strengthened for this one block, an effort will be made to ex. tend the improvement as far as Jack son street.

forget. He was walking along one of
the outer boulevards an evening or two
ago, and had Joined a group which was
watching Il Cinematograph show at the
facade of a house when he felt a hand
playing with his waistcoat pocket and
soon perceived that a valuable watch
had left him, in company with a scarf
pin and his purse.
He looked around, and, perceiving a
man hurrying away as fast as he could
go. started in pursuit, and was about to
catch the fellow by the collar when a
couple of bullets whizzed past his ears
Undaunted by this dangerous attack
the American rushed on, and, overtak-
ing the miscreant. rendered him incapa-
BILE of further mischief by a well-di-
rected blow from his fist and then gave
him a sound thrashing. This done, he
recovered possession of the stolen
articles and triumphantly committed the
pickpocket to the custody of some po-
licemen who had now arrived on the
spot.
As the miscreant, who turns out to be
an old offender, was being led away his
captor quietly strolled back to have an
other look at the cinematograph, Just as
if nothing unusual had happened, much
to the admiration of the crowd which
had watched his plucky performance
