at all, Others with eyes, but

The rivers sometimes widen into lakes,
and the Dead Sea" is a feature.

Love Dope

Goodwin's Weekly has such de-
lightful way of looking at the bright
side of everything that its keenest
darts have their lighter side and It's
clouds silver lining. The Weekly
has noted Golfers crusade against
the patent medicine traffic and in the
following comes near hitting the nail
on the head. 1t says:
ave are not sure about the Justice
Of that persecution, because there is a
certain class Of patients that would
not be happy II they really knew they

prefer to believe they are always i'll
and make it their daily business to
test all the various nostrums that are
advertised as cure-alls. Abate the
patent n edicine business and these
people would get well and have to go
work, and that would be a hardship
unspeakabe. The proposition to
make all patent medicine vendors
have the ingredients used in their
medicines printed on the bottle, We
think, would cure the evil. For in

basis of Peruna was simply drug store

know what the would.be sick would
do because the discovery Of a new
patent medicine brings the same Joy
that the discovery of a gold mine does
to prospector, The miner gets one
assay that goes S37 .O5 in gold. There
may not be another piece that will
assay that much in the whole mine,
hut for the time being he is just as
happy as though that was the general
average, and while the illusion lasts
his Joy continues. 1t is the same way
with the patent medicine tiend. Every
new remedy is bonanza to him for
day, and why break the spel?"

WOndrOuS Music.

Prof, Ostien told Of the wonderful
music there is in the human voice
when pitched in song, but to those
who have never been in a great cave
and listened to music, no adequate
conception Of its beauty can be con-
veyed. In the case of which he speaks

A Great Trip.

A trip through Mammoth must be
a most novel and neyer-to- be- forgotten
experience, but a visit to any great
cave is well worth the while. The
writer has visited Marengo' cave
southern Indiana, one that is scarcely
more than two or three miles in ex.
tent, yet filled with wonders incon-
ccivable. No water is there, except
that which drips from the walls but
stalagmteS and stalactites in won
drous beauty are there. The Lean
ing Tower of Pisa" is perfect repro
duction: Natures Music Box is a
long row OF thin projections from the
ceiling resembling elephants ears.
Each Of these has a different tone, and
a genius can play fair tune there; a
great mass of stalagmite and stal

lights resembles in remarkable way

and on a return trip that name will be
crusted over with transparent sub
stance that leaves the name in view.

i Terry played Puck at the tender age of
 fifteen. The one exception to the rule
 so far as can be recalled was in 1859.
 when Laura Keene played Puck in her
 own production at the. Variety. Al any
 rate it is long step from the ingenious
 stage maiden so often portrayed by Miss
 Russe' n Shakespeare's sauciest boy. Il been the effort of Managers 1 Wae lals and Kemper to make this pre-
 sen. .l of "A Midsummer Nights Dre- l notable one, so far as accu-
 racy of detail ahd true artistic beauty are concerned. The ideas Of the best author ties have been followed out.
 Critics from Hazlitt down have ever | bewailed the absence of the dream feel
 ing in all previous productions of this , play. Once, in the Phelps production at
 Sadlers Wells, they were said to have had it. Phelps, it would seem, used gauge curtain or something of the sort and showed his figures in a kind of mist
 that gave the vague far-away sense one i associates with things of the fancy. G1uze is not used in the Russell produc- tiGn, but the lights are dim many times and there are plenty of other excellent first aids to Illusion. Colored lights bob up in flowers when Puck kisses them, an owl hoots and blinks his eyes and a
 whole troupe of little elves and fairies

 land, play leap frog, tumble down hill

 trees as any one could wish
 Miss Russell is a sort of Puck in pastel
 shades. She comes in first flying very
 prettily by means of a wire arrangement,
 graceful and appealing in her role of the madcap fay. She has a sweet singing voice and her song up and Down" is
 charmingly given. With a pleasing ar
 rangement of the music by Augustus Barratt, who was brought over from
 England by Messrs Wagenhals and Kem- per to make special arrangement of the Mendelssohn music for this production.
 A popular element in the play is the fooling of Bottom and his fellow actors, 8 Bottom who Is extremely funny and who actually manages to be so even when his own round, oily face is hidden by the
 ass head. John Bunny is the Bottom Others In the supporting company are Edwin Mordaunt, Atkins Lawrence, Os-

In time the news comes that the "squaw man" has inherited a title and the suicide of the Indian wife in despair at the prospect of being parted from her child leaves him loved.
 From the glimpse of English country life in the first act to the more thrilling scene in the west in the other three the play is realistic and convincing Many of it's situations are unique and it's Ian guage is simple and direct. Liebler & Co. have given it a series of stage set tings that are effective and they have surrounded the star with a good cast

expected that the great attractions, the New York successes the talked about plays can all be brought to this city during the first few months of their careers. Nor is it to be expected that all of the theatrical stars in the theatrical Armament will consent to twinkle in the city every season. If, however. our To- cal theatre continues to manifest the enterprise already shown we will be quite as much in the theatrical world as Chi cago, Cincinnati, Detroit, Omaha or Denver. Her Own Way" which was the attraction at the Cambria theatre last evening. was no secondhand edition of q first-class production. It was not cast as first produced, but 1t came to us a well-staged, well-acted, wel-rounded- out attraction that deserves quite as much consideration as any of the new things that are rehearsed in the provinces before being taken. to the metropolis. Her Own Way" is more than a custom play. The fine dresses are not lacking. Fitch loves to have his characters always fashlonably garbed. But besides fine clothes there was also plenty of good character and emotional work.
 It is not necessary to review mlnutely this production, as it is well known, all though new here. It is only just to say, however, that Sylvia Lynden has a con genial role as Georgiana Carley and makes the character very human. She Is never stagy. never rants and has at all times a full command of those wo- manly qualities that mark this character In the supporting company Lizzie May Ulmer Josephine Foy, Maurice Drew and John McMurtie all do work marked by discrimination and real dramatic power The characters are well worked out. In short, Her Own Way" as presented last evening, was a production that gives tone to the season and helps keep the local standard at a very desirable ele- yatton

George has already mar ried without his uncle's consent, and to acknowledge it would result in his being dsinherited. He the wife and Nellie enter into conspiracy to fool the uncle and pretend that he has married the ward, anticipating the uncle's wishes. But as good plans often go wrong Richard Hamilton, Nellie's fiance, from whom she has parted in lovers quarrel arrives upon the scene and mistakes the manor for the asylum. He imagines Nell lie has become an inmate as the result of the quarrel George poses as the keeper and enlightens him upon the pe- culiarities of the various patients. This leads to numerous farcial mistakes and situations that continue to the final cur tain, when Richard discovers that he has been tricked and Uncle Heinrich. after a strenuous experience. is willing to for give and accept his new nlece-in-law. The experience of Ikey Rosenstein. wealthy neighbor. who, has been correspon ding wirn Cornela Dinkelspiel under the ad- dress of Miss Nellie, enhances the comedy situations of the play.

The reduction of prices at the Majestic theatre at the evening performances will probably serve to draw much larger crowds in the future than in the past In addition to that there will be a bill at the Majestic theatre tifls week that promises to be one of the best vaudeville bills ever seen on a Birmingham stage.
 It Is truly a bill of feature acts. All of them are not headlners. but each and every one of them Is novelty act or an act of unusual interest. The top-lner for the week is an act that has been the center of attraction at many of the vaude- vile theatres in all parts of the United States. and which promises to create sensation in Birmingham.

Although l like Arkansas and the good peo- pie of that country think man has many more advantages in the west than back there. The soil in most parts is very rich. Wheat is the principal crop grown here. There is is some oats and barley raised but just for feed and not for market. A man can earn from S2.50 to Sc per day working for wages. Wheat yields from 25 to 60 bushels per acre.
 There is quite lot of fruit grown here and all kinds grow down on the Columbia and Spokane River. Most all kinds of vegetables grow here. Corn does not grow we'll owing to early frost. This country is not as thickly settled as Arkansas.
