BIJOU THEATRE WILL
OPEN NEXT MONDAY
Building Has Been Thoroughly Reno
waited and Decorations Have Been
Retouched-"A Runaway Match"

The Bijou theatre will open its doors
next Monday, August e. for the fail
and winter season. The building has been
thoroughly renovated and all the decora-
lions retouched.
The opening engagement will be "a
Runaway Match" The performance is
reputed to be of high class and its cast
of characters attractive. The Richmond
News-Deader of August IA had the fol-
lowing to say about the play:
"A Runaway Match" al the Casino last
night, proved a good WHITEWATER and
kept the large audience in attendance
laughing from start to finish. In the three
acts there is not dull moment as every
member of the company understands his
or her part and acts it well. Fred House
as Lenny Clayton has the most difficult
part of the farce comedy, and this he
set forth to the entire satisfaction of
the audience. Phil Gastroek as the father
of the young man; Edward L. Schooley
as Sol Short, the man of all work; Miss
Maude A. Scott as Mrs. Eleanor Matche,
the matchmaking widow who comes near
marrying the son when she ought TO
marry, and does finally marry the
father; Miss Helen Young as Mile
Matche, daughter of the matchmaking
widow; and Miss Bessie Ryan as the pro-
prletoress of the country hotel. where
everything was charged extra, all made
hits. The piece will run all the week and
is deserving of a large patronage"

ADJUSTMENTS.
East Lake Casino.

Professor Bonansinga was in readiness
to make an ascension yesterday afternoon
when the rain began falling in torrents.
From the crowd at night twenty-five or
thirty men volunteered to assist in hold
ing tho huge balloon as it was being IN
flated.
When the signal turn loose" was given
all hands let go, and Professor Bonan-
singa and his massive balloon shot
straight up into the darkness above. He
was soon out of sight and could only be
traced by the fireworks from the balloon
which was then about 1000 feet high.
Professor Bonansinga is one of the most
daring aeronauts In the world, making as
tensions at night and staying with the
balloon until it reaches the ground.
Ascensions will be given every afternoon
and night this week. The afternoon ascen-
sions will take place at A o'clock and
those at night at $3.50.

HOUSMAN'S STORE
NEAR FALLING IN
TWO MIDDLE PIERS SANK SEW
ERAL FEET-PLASTERING FELL
AND CUSTOMERS LOST NO TIME
IN GETTING OUT.

The corner Of the building In which
Housman's pharmacy is located at Third
avenue and Nineteenth street. showed de-
cided symptoms of caving in yesterday
about O'clock. Two piers along the mid
die of the store sank several feet, ac-
companied by fall of plaster, which did
no more harm than to break showcase
or two and several bottles contained
therein, besides frightening a number Of
people who were in thesstore at the time.
The fire apartment was hastily no.
titled. Ropes were stretched to keep the
public out and in short time the CEN
trail beam which seemed to be losing its
support was securely proped up by Con-
tractor A. ]. Krebs.
Bert Covell, the photographer, occupies
the floor above. The building is owned by
Frank Nelson. Jr.
Building Inspector J. P. Lind promptly
made Investigations He reports that the
defect lay with the foundations of the two
middle piers and that 1t was such as to
escape observation.
He notified all tenants that If they con-
tinued to occupy the building before re-
pairs could be made they did so at their
own risk.
1t is understood that the building will be
made safe speedily.

Is Disease a Crime ?

Not very long ago, a popular magazine
published an editorial article In which
the writer asserted, In substance, that all
disease should be regarded as criminal.
Certain 1t is, that much of the sickness
and suffering of mankind is due to the
violation of certain of Natures laws
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal, must appeal to
every reasonable individual as radically
wrong.
cruel, yes criminal, to condemn the poor,
weak, over worked housewife who sinks
under the heavy load of household cares
and burdens, and suffers from weak
nesses, various displacements of pelvic
organs and other arrangements peculiar
to her sex.
Frequent bearing of children, with its ex-

ACTION OF COUNCIL
ACTION IN MAINTAINING oRDi-
NANCE REMOVING GAMING
FROM SALOONS AND THE oRDl-
NANCE oUsTING BUCKET SHOPS

At the meeting of the Methodist pas
tors of the district at the First Method
list church yesterday morning the follow
ing resolution was unanimously adopted:
I'VE believe that the action of the
Mayor and Aldermen on last Wednesday
evening In maintaining the ordinance to
remove gaming from the rooms whore in
toxicants are sold, will become a land
mark in the moral history of our city.
The games being chiefly profitable in that
they Increased the number of drinks sold.
they became the occasion of the many ar
rests for aggravated drunkenness ard the
many crimes which never would have
been committed but for this drunken-
ness. The better judgment of all classes
of citizens will approve of the action
taken
1--WE heartily indorse the action of the
board with reference to bucket shops
as well as that looking to the removal
of those drinking places on the South
side which contribute so much to the
disgusting and demoralizing scenes that
must be witnessed by the people of the
city In passing on the cars. No amount
of police supervision can ever control the
disorders in this community as long as
the people have such ready access to-
the saloons
''Disclaiming animosity toward any
class of men, we nevertheless feel that
we should be recreant to every prompts
ing duty and unworthy of the corhdence
and esteem accorded US by all classes OF
people in this growing city, II we failed
to express our appreciation of what has
been done, and pledge our uLwavering
support to all measures calculated n
better the morals of our city"
