ChamberIain's Cough Remedy the Best
Made
"In my opinion Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is the best made
for colds" says Mrs. Cora Walker
Of Porterville, Cal. There is no
doubt about it's being the best. No
other will cure a cold so quickly.
No other is so sure a preventive of
pneumonia. No other is so pleas
ant and safe to take. These are
good reasons why it should be pre-
ferred to any other. The fact is
that few people are satisfied with
any other after having once used
this remedy. For sale by R. W.

Law Enforcement Endorsed.

Law enforcement L1lOOrSeQ.
! A mass meeting of citizens in
the interests of law enforcement
was held in the M. E. church last
Sunday evening. The weather was
severe but a representative and en-
thusiastic audience vas present.
The Rev. Lachlan Mclean presid-
cd over the meeting and addresses
we're made by Major Dollard, D.
W. Chamberlain, DR.. H. J. 6.
Koobs and J. H. Dickson. All the
speakers emphasized the import
ance of a due observance of law
and deplored the condition Of law
lessness which resulted in the death
of one of our citizens. The follow
ing resolutions were unanimously
adopted:
Whereas, This community is
shocked and outraged by the awful
tragedy which has taken place in
our midst, resulting in the death Of
one of our fellow citizens and
Whereas, There are other citi-
zens in our midst in like danger
who in like manner may lose their
1S,,oc. WIor,Fo.o ~
Resolved That as tax payers,
citizens and residents of the city of
Scotland, in mass meeting assem-
bled, we do hereby arraign, and
hold morally responsible the liquor
traffic of the city of Scotland for
the death Of this man.
Resolved That while we recog-
nize that the saloons Of Scotland
are licensed to deal in intoxicants,
we are also aware that according to
laws regulating such business pro-
lection is afforded minors, drunk
ards, and those under the influence
of strong drink, which laws, If they
had been observed, would have
been sufficient to have prevented
this awful catastrophy.
Resolved, therefore: That we
demand the acknowledgements of
all laws regulating the saloon bust
ness in the city of Scotland; such
as keeping the windows of the sa-
looms free from distinctions, sell
ing or giving Intoxicating liquors
to minors, drunkards, or those un-
der the influence Of strong drink :;
and we emphatically demand that
saloons shall be closed on Sundays,
having neither front, side, or back
doors open on the first day of the
week, commonly called Sunday.
Resolved, also: That we call on
all law abiding citizens of Scot
land in the interest of the fair name
Of II city to use their influence in
the enforcement Of all laws, in the
interest OF peace and order, and
that we uphold the hands of the
mayor and other officers in the dis
.,
charge of their duties.
After the adoption of the resolu-
tons 1t was voted that a committee
composed Of fifteen men be APP
pointed to assist the proper author
tiles in securing the observance of
law, to gather proof of the violation
Of law and the consequences arts
ing from such violation and to
appear before the city council
when the question for granting Ii
censes shall be heard to present
the evidence they have gathered
and urge that the number of such
licenses be limited to two.
On motion the pastors of the Nj.
ID. and Presbyterian churches were
appointed a committee Of two to
organize the committee Of fifteen.
The meeting then adjourned.

Orient. party of American negroes
are touring the world, the expense of
the expedition being met by Rastus
Johnson George ". Walker), who
has made a big winning in a lottery
and who attempts to buy the whole
Abyssinfan kingdom. The part is that Of
a hrst-water colored sport, and there
Is revelation In every line. every ia
cial expression, every piece Of excel
lent acting.
George Walker is a Lawrence, Kas.,
boy and only a few years ago was
familiar figure on the streets in that
city.
Bert A Williams, as Jasmine Jen-
kirs, is one OF the touring party and a
l-blOoded, black-as-tar American
negro. His work is similar, yet decid-
eddy different from that done by any
other black face" comedian. Of all
ridiculous characters, at least one of
which must appear in every musical
comedy, Jasmine is perhaps the most
ludicrous and there is likely no other
comedian who could portray the part
as does Bert Williams.
The success of the production lies IN
the elaborate settings, the work Of the
chorus, and of the three stars
Among the hits of the chorus are
1.-THE Island of By-and-By," Build a
Nest for Birdie as sung by Aida Over
ton Walker, Let It Alone" by Bert
A. Williams. and Its Hard to Find a

The extraordinary record of 900
performances has Just been achieved
by the farcical comedy. The Private
Secretary, says the New York Tele-
graph
Produced in London, in May, 1884,
it has been acted continuously since
then, and IS now in its twenty second
consecutive year of tour.
During the London run the weekly
profit amounted to $4,000. BY the end
of the second years run 100000 had
been made in London alone.
1t ran over 800 nights IN. New York
and A. NJ. Palmer made fortune out
Of it.
Altogether, the amazing career of
THE Private Secretary has resulted
in a total clear profit of at least
$4,000
Joseph Jefferson's lifelong success,
RIP Van Wrinkle" probably made
more money than any other single
production. Jefferson played the title
role no fewer than 5000 times. and
earned the great sum Of $5,o00s0 600.
For three successive seasons at the
Boston theater it averaged $23, 900 a
week in gross returns.
Another American favorite, THE
Old Homestead" netted s4,750, 600 in
twelve years The famous Vaudeville
theater success Our Boys" ran for
nearly FIVE years, at an average pront
Of $4,000 a week. Mr.. Barrie Lit
tie Minister" made over 100000 net
profit in England and America.
Probably "a Chinese Honeymoon"
made more money than any other
musical comedy. It ran for two years
and eight months. ard at the end Of
that period the author estimated its
remaining value at S2To.o0o. On the
London production alone the profit
reached six figures and there were be-
sides eight provincial. American,
European, and South African compan-
les playing the piece en- tour.
Authors shares Of such successes
make fortunes IN themselves. Mr..
Pinero received 100000 from Sweet
Lavender" Mr. @. R. Sims has made
as much as $4,000 a year from one
of his popular mefodramas. Mr.. W. s.
GiIbert's profits from six OF his Savoy
operas have been Teckonsd at $3.50 000.
ssPygmalfon and Galatea' alone
