ADJUSTMENTS.
At the Jefferson.

"Way Down East is a play that has enjoyed wonderful popularity It has been seen by thousands of theatre-goers, yet the homeliness of the story, its com edy and it's pathos, seem undimmed by the march of time, and people are still interested in the story. The con- pany which presented Way Down East" at the Jefferson theatre last night was a well balanced organization, and each of the characters was brought out in a care full and convincing manner. Grace Hop kins as Anna Moore, Charles Reigel as Squire Bartlett, Josephine Bacon as Louisa Bartlett, Madge Douglass as Kate Brewster, Warren Cook as Professor Sterling and c. H. White as Lenox San derson all acquitted themselves with credit. Eddie Heron as Si Holler pre- sented fine comedy part and kept the house titllating with his antics. The scenic effects were good, as usual, and the familiar snowstorm scene has lost none of it's effectiveness. 'Way Down East" seems destined to continue before the public for a long time.

ATTACK ON DI VORCE
 AND RAGE SUICIDE
AT THE NATIONAL PURITY CON- GRESS AN ADDRESS IS MADE DE. TENDING THE HOME AND THE HONOR OF WOMEN.

Battle Creek Mich, October 31.-Rev. Father J. NJ. Cleary, of Minneapolis, vehemently assailed divorce and race sui eide at tonight's session of the National Purity Congress which opened its ses- sions at the Adventist tabernacle here today.
 Taking up the "quaty not quantity argument often advanced in defense of small families, Father Cleary declared that quantity and quality in this relation were not antagonistic terms.
 "The assumption that one or two chill dren will be reared to be better men and women than ten to dozen in a Christian home is false,' he said. and cannot be supported by the test of experience. The mother who harbors the heart of mur- derer. the woman who has slaughtered the helpless unborn babe has smothered mother love in her unnatural bosom.'
 On the topic of divorce, rather Clark said:
 "The honor of woman is insecure in human sympathy when the dread spectre of divorce casts dark shadow on the Christian home. Under every pretext the depraved desire can suggest. tte wife and mother who should be the most tender object of chivalrous devotion. is set aside and degraded by the one individual, her husband. who should value his life at but beggarly price to pay in defense of her dignity and honor.
 ''The married state is the natural one for the majority of mankind. The church has never faltered in the faithful defense of the holiness and inviolability of the marriage bond"

A Prince Without Country.

From the New Broadway Magazine
 In the little room on the third floor of an ,npretentious downtown Broadway hotel without suite or attendants or any sign of regal pomp, a royal youth dwelt TOT several weeks of the hot New York summer. He came unhearalded, the news papers barely noticed his presence, no official recognition was taken of his visit, and he went away as quietly as he arrived. He was Trying Chi M, or the rayol blood of Korea. prince without a country. Il pathetic little figure Of a boy Only % years of age he had come to America in the hope of re-establishing his nation. now become a province of Imperial Japan His errand was hope less and in vain, as vain as the earlier attempt which he made to bring his land into the congress of nations a The Hague
 The prince is mere lad, looking more like an American college freshman than q diplomat He has seen, however. years of service for his country He resided in Washington four years, from 1896 to 1900, when his father. Prince Tchini Pomme +.i was the Korean minister. Later he was attache to the Korean legation in St. Petersburg until Korea ceased to be a nation. He speaks English. French and Russian nusntly. and has played a lead ing part in the feeble diplomatic life of the defunct kingdom. His ambition now is to build up q new Korea that shall loom large in the future of the conquering east.

CATARRH OF
 THE STOMACH
A Most Dangerous Disease, Which Causes Serious Results, Unless
 Properly Treated

Catarrh of the Stomach is very com. mon and is known as one of the most obstinate diseases, which. when neglected or improperly treated with cheap patent medicines, tonics. drugs. pills, and other secret quacll remedies results in a broken down constitution and often con sumption and death.
 Catarrh of the Stomach, like every other disease of the stomach, except cancer. is the result of poor digestion. The digestive organs have become weak. there is 8 lack of gastric juice, your food is only half digested, and as a result you be- come affected with lass of appetite pres sure and fullness after eating. eartburn. vomiting. waterbrash. tenderness at pit of stomach. slmy tongue. bad taste in the mouth. constipation. pain in limbs and face, sleeplessness, nausea, belching of sas, uiarrhoea, sick headaches, dizziness. menta, depression, nervous weakness, and many other common symptoms.
 If your stomach cannot digest the food you eat. then the stomach needs a rest as that is the only way you can get rid of your catarrh, but in the meantime your body needs plenty of nourishment because you must live and in order 10 live you must eat. and If you must eat your food must be properly di- gested, and if your stomach is too weak to do the work. then you must get substitute that win do the work.

PHONE COMPANY
 GETS INJUNCTION
CITY OF MEMPHIS IS TEMPORAR- uY ENJoINED RV CUMBERLAND TELEPHONE COMPANY FROM REDUCING THE RATES.

Shattanooga, Tenn, October a.-Tenl- Cumberland Telephone company by Fed eral Judge Charles D. Clark, preventing the city of Memphis from nfofcins re- cent ordinance passed by the city council and reducing the Cumberlands telephone rates. In granting the inJunctton 'he court places the Cumberland Ieiephone company under a s500O bond to cover any damages the city of Memphis might re- ceive while awaiting the final settle ment of the suit
 This litigation started some time ago and the city of Memphis and the Cum berand Telephone company have been fighting ever since the company raised it's rates to s6 per month on phones.
 The city coupncil of Memphis passed an ordinance preventing the Cumberland Telephone company from raising It's rates, but reducing it's former rates. The Dill was then filed in the federal court seek ing an injunction preventing the city or Memphis from inforcng it's ordinance,
 Judge Clark in granting the injunc- ton, says in part:
 'I think that the complainant Is en- titled to an injunction even If the right of regulation were conceded. because l think the city estopped and bound to contract to set out in the bill as prohi- biting it from adopting the Legislation now called in question. The Dill dlstlhct- ly charges that the rates fixed by thls ordinance are such that if iniorced they would not permit reasonable income on the capital invested and the result would be confscatory and destructve.

some great men, but no native. or adopted, son of Alabama, has ger done as much good for this state as he has, and he is willing to continue this policy of building up Alabama provided capital invested in railroads is given the same care and protection as is given to that of individuals. To my mind, the people of Birmingham should call a mass meeting for the purpose of appealing to the leg islature to consider well how far they should go in the oppression of the rail- roads and other industries whose time may come next if the present adverse sentiment prevails.
