Among people who ought to know all
about Rock Island the movement in the
stock appears to be regarded as some
thing quite mysterious They admit that
the road is doing We'll but where the
buying comes from they do not seem to
have the slightest idea. Possibly when
they get all the stock they want they
may have some information on tap.
The latest rumor about the great North
ern melon is that just as Mr.. Hill was
ready to DO the slicing, he was compelled
to leave off on account of an investi-
cation in St. Paul into rate conditions in
the territory of his roads 1t is said
he was served with a paper command
ing him to appear before the railroad
commissioner yesterday and thar this
involved his departure from New
York two days earlier than he would
have gone. Whether there is anything
in the report or not. 1t is certain that
this is one Of Mr.. HIS busy weeks.

 Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char coal is the safest and most efficient dis;nfeetant and purifier in nature but few realize it's value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose.

 Charcoal sweetens the breath afFeF smoking, drinking or after eating on icns or other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and inn proves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as natural and eminently safe eathartic.
 It abscrbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfecJs the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probaly the best charcoal and the most for the money is in StCart's Charcoal LoZenges; they are composed of he finest powdered Willew charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large, pleasant tasting lozenges. the charcoal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use Of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condi- ton of the general health better com lsleXion, sweeter breath and pure blood, and the beauty of it is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit.

Unlike most young actresses who heretofore have stepped from societys ranks into the realms of theaterdom, Miss Davis be- can her professional career at the lowest rune of the histrionic ladder, and has gradually worked her way to the much enyied position of star.
 Some years ago, Miss Davis was connected with a western stock con- rany in which she played in many Shakespa aarean plays, like 'Tha Hunchbaclz,' 'Ingomar," etc., after which she spent a year abroad in study. She next played for two sea sons in the companies of Charles Frohlnan and Dan el Frohman, and later in the leading comedy role in Sol Smith Russail's "A Bachelors Ro- manca." Miss Davis is young and pretty and regarded as one of the best women fencers in the country. She would make an admirable i'm pressiGn as the fascinating actress of the Drury Lane theater in the time cf Garricl.

Mildred Holland.

Miss Mildred Holland, a star whose worth is well-recoanized in the north and west, made her init al appearance here yesterday in her new play. "The Lily and the Prince" and although it is not class of attraction that ap- peals 10 Sunday theatergeers, there were two fair audiences presen-, s2ys the San Antonio Gazette.
 Miss Hollands play is strong. well-written story of the middle ages, during the time of the great struggle between the church and state in Rome, and embraces the tale of a young girl who is suddenly thrown from the environments of peaceful quiet life into the very midst of the blackest of court intrigue and turmoil. The opening scene is in the rose gar den at Florence, and Miss Holland is shown as maiden who is unsoiled by the world, whe does not even under

 Miss Holland is a recognized artist. She is artistic in everything. Her pro- ductions are staged under her per- sonal direction, and they show it. Sel- dom has a romantic drama been given a more beautiful presentation than that invested in s"The Lily and the Prince And the selection of the company showed the handiWork of a master craftsman in every detail. Many an actress of Miss Hollands $ standing makes the mistake of ap- bearing with ugly or unattractive Wo- n1en in the minor roles, who serve as foils for the beauty and attractiveness Of the star. This is not the case with Miss Holland Her product ons are staged not with view to showing Miss Hclland to the best advantage. t5t w;th an eye to the art stic whole. For instance, the character of Lucre- tia Borgia is played by a really clever actress and a maen ficent specimen Of feminine beauty Miss Teresa \, Dale. Not only does she look like she might have been the great enchant- ress-poisoner, but she throws into the character a world of naughty passion ! and queenly grace. In fact, she was Well-nigh a perfect Boreia. But the i star does not suffer by comparison. i TC tell the truth one does not com l rare Miss Holland to anybody. She ! has a wonderful amount of personal magnetism, that appeals to an aud enee even few minutes before she comes on the stage.
 Mildred Holland will appear at the Elks theater tonight, and matinee this afternoon. It is a pl asant task to

A Human Slave.


 There is something doing all the time in "A Human Slave" which was presented at the Elks last night to a small audience, congre9ated for the most part upstairs From the very first act. in which things "pick up with the death of Mildreds father, until the curtain drops on the happy consummation of loves young dream of pure happiness, there is strenu- osity that must be the envy of the Rough Rider president. And not only is there something doing all the time, but everybody does someth fng-most- ly murder, arson, assault, strike or things of similar nature. The whole ganut of crime is shown, and this in it's most overwhelmingly exciting man. ner
 Tn the first act, Ernest Stockton dies with convenient stopping of the heart, for which he should be eternally thankful, saving him as it does from passing through with the scenes which follow in rapid success sion. This leaves his daughter, Mill dred, the wife of poor. but honest man and the persecuted victim of the villain, her own cousin, Melvin Thorn ton, who steals all her property. in- cluding the great iron works.
 The next act shows what poor, inno- cent little Mildred is made to suffer for her indiscretion in marrying a poor man. Here's where "Sleeker" gets in his work on the collector, giv- ing local debtors a tip on how to deal with their creditors, by punching him out Of the room.
 The third act shows the interior of the mill where someth ne is doing every second Now, Richard Ather- ton, the hero, is compelling the vil- lain to give him employment, now ttda gooda Italiano mana is punch is punch ng the Italian anl the vil- lain both, but finally the Italian gets in his work with a saWdust telegraph pole, and it's all off He is placed in the house to be roasted alive, while the audience is praying for the whole company to be confined Il the sane room.
