MONOGRAPH BROKE THEM UP
Boy Played It Continually TiH Step
 mother Demolished It.


 New York, Aug 16.-Tn the Bloom field, N. J., police court, Wednesday Recorder Cadmus decided that Mich ael Prill must furnish a bond to sup port his wife, which he did. Mrs Prill, who is his second spouse, had sued him for non-support.
 Prill tried to prove by witnesses that his wife was insane, but failed.
 It was phonograph that broke up the happiness of the Prill family and caused husband and wife to separate. Little Johnny Prill, who is Prill's son by his first wife. saved enough money to buy a photograph. At first he only operated it at night after he ar rived home from work. Later he be- came so taken up with it that he played 1t in the morning before the was howl from the neighbors.
 Finally Johnny became so enam- ored with the machine he left his po- sition and played it morning. noon and night, with a couple of matinee performances thrown in. He ground out Navajo" "Tammany," Every body Works but Father" and other airs until Mrs Prill says she was al most crazy. She stuffed cotton in her ears, but all to no purpose.
 Tt was awful" she said, "and it was a wonder I didn't go insane"
 When Johnny added ''I'm Living Easy" to his repertoire Mrs Prill de- clares she could not stand it any longer, so she seized the machine. took it out in the yard and reduced 1t to kindling wood with an axe.
 Then followed the separation.

Tomorrow afternoon the souvenir matinee will be of an unusual charac- ter inasmuch as two photographs will be given to each lady in attendance. Last week because of circumstances which could not be foreseen. big audience was disappointed in not re- ceiving the pictures of James Null lin. the distribution of which had been advertised. The management not desiring to take advantage of the cir cumstance will not only distribute Mir Mullins likeness but also a photograph of Arthur Claire as we'll. Mir Claire has more than made good during his stay here and already his popularity has grown to proportions easily measured by the applause which invariably greets his first en- trance. Next week the last souve- nirs of the season will be given away and the set completely filled. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents, afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10 cents.

RESORT TO BRUTE FORCE.
Meeting of Union Broken Up and the
 Chairman Is Assaulted.

Hartford. Aug 16.-Matters in the strike of the local iron holders took on q serious turn last night. when em- ployes of the Pratt X Whitney com pany attempted to hold meeting in Central Labor TIhon hall. and other members of the local union entered the meeting and proceeded to break if ID after threatening to throw the man who called the meeting out of the window. The latter defiei the in- truders and was then dragged bodily into an ante-room. locked in hy his captors. and talked to and repeatedly threatened until the hall was cleared of his fellow employees who desired a peaceful discussion of their griey- ances.
 It was apparent that the breaking up of last nights meeting created 6 breach in the local ranks that will weaken the present strike and affect the organization as a whole.

Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is
the safest and most efficient disinfectant

Charcoal is a remedy that the more you
take OF it the better; it is not drug at all

intestines and carries them out Of the
system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after smok-
ing. drinking or after eating onions and
other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and improves
the complexion, it whitens the teeth and
further acts as a natural and eminently
safe cathartic
1t absorbs injurious gases which collect
in the stomach and bowels; fl disinfects the
mouth and throat from the poison Of
catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form or
another. but probably the best charcoal
and the most for the money is in stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges: they are composed of
the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and
other harmless antseptics in tablet form
or rather in the form OF large. pleasant
tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use OF these IcZenges will soon
