NEW YORK, October 29.-(Special)-
M 1t was with strangely mingled feel
ings that l called on the son of the
greatest genius of the English stage. Sue
cession is often disappointment even to
those most keenly Interested. "The king
As dead; long live the king!" is well meant,
and legal custom has much to do with
ats being SO, but the rulers of the theatrl-
cal kingdom who wish their nantes of
ermine and cloth OF gold to fail upon the
shoulders Of a favored son must abide by
'public decision. The son of great ia
ther finds more difficulties in his path to
fame than does he whose name falls
strangely upon our ears. The sons of Jo-
seph Jefferson can speak with fervor on
this subject. for no matter how carefully
dear old Rip proportioned his dramatic
legacies among his heirs, the public will
not be satisfied. Whether II. B. Irving
will encounter this sentimental opposition
when he makes his London debut in his
1ather's famous roles remains to be seen,
Nor that is a trial yet before him. His
reception in America has been more than

Mr.. Irving was seated at a writing desk
when ] entered his private parlor at the
Hotel Marie Antoinette, and his attitude
was so amazingly like that of Sir Henry
that l paused for a moment and watched
him seal his letter. There was the same
shaped face with the broad forehead, the
strong jaw and chin. the hair worn rather
long, the kindly expression of the eyes.
In another instant he rose and came for
ward with that air of good breeding which
Is so unmistakable a manner of frank cor
diality combined with an utter lack Of
Rffectation. He is Sir Henry in his youth
when the future offered its glory.
This is Mr.. lrvings first visit to the
States, and, as is usual with Engishmen
he is impressed forcibly by the hustle and
hurry of New York He is at present

of q quick descent from a surface car
In speaking of the accident, Mr. Irving
said with a characteristic accent:

FOR COUNTY POOR FARM
SUPERVISOR TAYLOR GOES TO cANANEA MONDAY TO IN-
 TERvIEW COL. GREENE.
Beard of Supervisors Endeavers to Get Clear Title to Land Which Cop per King Will Donate to County for . Poor Farm.

DOUGLAS. April 30. Especially
 Supervisor c. A. TaylcT will go to Cananea Monday to interview Col w c. Greene on the poor farm. situation.
 Some months ago Col. Greene made known to the supervisors that he would take pleasure in donating eigthy acres of river bottom land along the San Pedro in Cochise county for a poor farm.
 Pleased with the prospect of such a gift, the supervisors voted money to put suitable buildings on the land When ready to build however, they were informed by some of Col. Greene's head people that Col. Greene had no land on the San Pedro to which he could give a title at this time.
 Unwilling to proceed without title that is perfectly clear, the board call ed everything of until they could see Col. Greene in person and consult with him on the matter. Several efforts to do this have failed, but he is now at Cananea and expects to remain there for several days, and Mir. Taylor hopes to see him Monday.

All women work; some in their homes, some in church, and some in the whirl of society. And in stores, mills and shops tens of thousands are ou the never-eeasing treadnaill, earning their daily bread.
 All are subject to the same physical laws; all suffer alike from the same physical disturbance, and the nature of their duties. in many cases, quickly drifts them into the horrors of all kinds of female complaints, ovarian troubles, alteration, falling and dis placements of the womb, leucorrhoea, or perhaps irregularity or suppression ache, nervousness, irr;tability and lasSitude.
 Women who stand on their feet all day are more susceptible to these troubles than others.
 They especially require an invigorat- ing. sustaining medicine which will strengthen the female organism and enable them to bear easily the fatigues of the day, to sleep we'll at night, and to rise refreshed and cheerful.
 How distressing to see a woman struggling to earn a livelihood or per form her household duties when her back and head are aching, she is so tired she can hardly drag about or stand up, and every movement causes pain, the origin of which is due to some derangement of the female or ganisrl.

Jesus Durass Badly Slashed About the Arms, Neck and Shoulders by His steaIthy AssaiIants, Three of Whom Are Now Under Arrest.

DOUGLAS, April 30. Especially
 Five to one in a fight appear like big odds to the one, particularly when the five are armed with wicked knives for your destruction. Such was the percentage against Jesus Duress last night, and today he is muchly dis figured Jesus. He resides with his father in the Zeigler flats OF Fifth street. Last night, shortly after dark, when father and son were nearing their home on their return from work, they were assailed by five Mexicans, all of whom used their knives freely about the arms, neck and shoulders of the unprepared Jesus. They had lain in waiting for their victim. and after they had badly slashed him they left him for dead and disappeared into the shadows from whence they had emerged. Jesus was far from dead, however. He seems to have sus- tained only flesh wounds.
 This is the story his brother told Policeman Lee Thompson, who sue ceeded in locating three of the men suspected of the assault. Mir Thomp- son found them secreted in a cellar and he promptly took them to the city jail to finish the night They will be heard this afternoon at o'clock by Justice Mcdonald.
