Had Conducted Small store for
Thirty Years.
Charles S. Proctor a resident of this
| city since 1855 was found dead In bed at
| the rear of small confectionery and cigar
store which he had conducted at ia East
Broadway for several years. The dis
covery was made by Officers Weir and
Peterson after the latter had made re-
peated efforts to arouse Proctor from the
outside as had been his custom
1t had been the custom of the officers
on the Upper Broadway beat to awaken
Mr.. Proctor at $50 every morning. Officer
Peterson. failing to get any response to
his efforts to arouse Mr.. Proctor, notified
police headquarters, and Detective Weir
was sent to investigate. The officers, with
Charles and AL Huber, whose meat mar
ket is close by, broke into the place. Proc
tor had evidently been dead several hours
as the body was almost rigid. Death had
apparently come quietly, as the bed cloth
ing was not disturbed and Proctor lay as
If asleep. He had been subjected TO heart
trouble for several years and the physi-
clan who was summoned pronounced that
was the cause of death.
Deceased was 60 years of age and was a
native OF Stockton. Yorkshire, England.
He came to this country in 1857, settling
in Nebraska, but the next year removed
to this city. For nearly thirty years he
in the employ of the Union Pacific
at the transfer depot. For several years
he had conducted the little confectionery
and grocery business at ia East Broad
way, making his home in the rear of the
store.
He is survived by a daughter. Mrs. Fred
Whitney of Oelwein Ia, and a brother in
Australia. c. A. Lacey of this city is a
nephew. Mr.. Proctor's wife died suddenly
about a year ago.

HERE ARE SOME FACTS
over two years ago. next August. two
gentlemen came to him with very bad,
condition Of nervous prostrltion, today
they are we'll and strong. and as much so
as any well man might be.
Two years ago, next March. a young
lady came to him from out OF town, and
had been sick nine years with nerve trou-
bic. Her relatives had given her up; by
the suggestion OF one OF her friends she
came to Prof. Dinjian and she was cured
in two months: went home in sound
health.
Two years ago last August a prom-
nent man came to him with catarrh OF
the stomach. He had been so for thirty.
years and, of course, was discouraged
with life. He, too, now enjoys the oest
health.
Another young lady came to him early
truation; discouraged of life. also. with
terrible sick headaches and sick in the
stomach as long as two or three days al
a time. She has been cured and entirely
relieved of her trouble. and to this day
has not complained.
Another we'll known lady came to him
with the rheumatism. She was cured In
thirty treatments.
A prominent business man came near
losing the use of his hand, and he was
also cured in the length of twelve weeks
Two other prominent business men
came to him, troubled for seven years
with nervousness, gastritis, constipation.
They have now been cured permanently
for two years
Two ladies came to him a year ago in
a very bad condition with neuralgia. They
are cured and well today.
year and half ago great, big, ro-
bust man was brought to him by a friend,
after making arrangements with sur
gical doctor to be operated upon for APP
pendicitis. He was cured and sent home
and now enjoys walks.
Three years ago a lady came to him
with a Gall Stone; had been suffering for
eighteen years; had made arrangements
with a surgical doctor to be operated
upon. She was entirely cured with ORR
entail Scientific Massage, and she enjoys
the life of a healthful one
Four years ago prominent man man
came to him with kidney and liver trouble
He. too was cured in a short time.
Another well known business man
came to him four years ago. He was
troubled with bad indigestion. He was
cured with the Oriental Scientific Massage
by Prof. Dinjian
Another we'll known business man in
this city was troubled with sprained
ankle for two years; he could not lace
was cured by twenty-four treatments,
and now enjoys the walks.
Prof Dinjan is perfectly willing to
give his patients address by special re-
quest in his office, so they can have a talk
with these people and be convinced. He
will also make examinations and consul
tations free of charge and give one
treatment at half price.

EAGLE HALL VAUDEVILLE.

The largest crowd since the open ing of the new vaudeville house at Eagles hall attended last evening to see the amateurs do a turn. It was an anxious audience and they could hardly wait for the finish of the reg ular performance before the yell went up for the amateurs. The hook was not put into service, as the au- dience did not make a request, but they kept a few of the would-be &C., tors. busy lodging lemons which were hurled from different parts of the house. Nelson & Grouse, the first team up did a few stunts on roller skates and finished their act just in time. When the awarding of prizes came they seemed to be the target for the lemons. Dan Shea, the we'll known baton swinger, captured the first prize of s5 and was greeted with much applause. He went through his act without break. Malley and Murphy, dancers, appeared by special request and took second prize which was also S5. This is the team which took first prize last week. The Uvard brothers, acrobats, performed until they were nearly exhausted; their act was very good but 1t was too much for the boys and a third prize of s2 was awarded this team. Miss Edna Smith sang while the audience was in an uproar. There was no cheering when she finished. The regular bill this week Is up to the standard and makes good show for the admission. To-day Is souvenir day and all the ladies who attend will be presented with prizes.

MRS DANES DEFENSE. "

MRO DANE LEFT LNoE.
 The Poli stock company presents this week d bill that seemed to take with the audience right from the opening scene. Mrs Danes De- fense" was originally produced in Wyndham's theater, London, Octo- Der g, 1900, with Charles Wyndham as Sir Daniel Carteret, Mary Moore as Lady Eastney and Lena Ashwell as Mrs Dane. The production was made in this country at the Empire theater in New York on December 31, 1900, with Charles Richman as Sir Daniel, Jessie Millward as Lady Eastney, Margaret Anglin as Mrs Dane, and Joseph Wheelock, Jr, as Lionel Carteret. With the local stock company Edna E. Bruns, the newcomer. appears as Mrs Dane, George c. Nichols as Sir Daniel, Jane Tree as Lady Eastney and hichard Gordon as Lionel Carteret. Interest centered naturally on the opening night of the week in the new leading woman, Edna E. Bruns. It is safe to predict that she will prove a popular favorite while with the Poli stock company, for her work last evening was all that could be de- sired. She was ably supported by the other members of the cast and the play was nicely staged and we'll enacted.
