The eminent actor was called eight times before the curtain after each. act and his success was so great that he at once arranged to cancel his road time, in order to bring the play into New York at once for a run.
 "Richard Lovelace" sees Sothern again in a. romantic role as an. expo nent Of which he stands foremost on the American stage. His name will all ways be remembered through his pres entauon of of I Were King" The Prisoner of zendo." (of which he was the first producer), "The Proud Prince "An Enemy to the King and others.
 Richard Lovelace" is romantic play of the same order as these The play was written by Laurence Irving. who also wrote Peter theA Great" and translated Robespferre and Dante for his father. Sir Henry Irving. Like "If l Were King" the leading role of 'Loyelace', is that of warrior-poet and the story Is written around the love of Lovalace for. the Lady Lucy. Love- lace is historical character. who lived In lehu. IL was He WHO WTOtG IHOSG immortal lines; T could not love thee. dear. so much. loved not honor more" Loveface fought on the side of King Charles of England against Cromwell and the period of the play gives Soth- ern ideal opportunity for picturesque and artistic costumes as well as diver sified portrayal. The military back ground of the play gives dramatic aet- ting to the 1ove-story. One of the scenes takes place as the famous bat tie of Worcester between Charles II Of England and Cromwell Is being fought.
 A feature of great interest Is the fact that MT. Sothern's leading lady is Miss Gladys Shocks, of Atlanta, who is known on the stage as Miss Gladys Hanson. Miss Hanson, until the conn mencement of her stage career two years ago. was leader in social circles in Atlanta.

The Many Phases of ostsrrh.

AhG MhNt A1@S~S VI catarrh may appear in the household in the form of slight cold or cough, an attack of la grippe. or even hay fever.
 Peruna meets these invasions squarely and reptiles the enemy before 1t gains a foothol5.
 Therefore, Peruna is a household remedy. Used at the correct time it often obviates the necessity of con- tinued doctoring.
 Perhaps in no other way can the wisdom of economy and foresight be so forcibly expressed as in keeping on hand bottle of Peruna to protect the various members of the family against the encroachments of catarrh.
 We have on file thousands of testi- monials from heads of families. located north and south, east and west. | These letters praise Peruna for its eficient protection of the family against catarrh. Mother and ChiIdren Depend On Pe-ru-na.
 Mrs. J. F. o'Connor, 4e0 S. California Ave. Chicago, ILL. First Soprano, Areai Singing Society, writes:
 @For a number of years had suffered from catmrrh of the head, and while some of the remedies helped me little while taking them. they did not cure me Permanently. My child was also sensitive to the cold and. evey little drausht gave her Q cold in the head, and 1t used to worry me a great deal

SPARKS SHOPS NOW
RUNNING FULL TIME

Orders were issued yesterday at
Sparks which restore the full time
schedule at all the shops, yards and
round houses of the Southern Pacific
at that place.
With the order also came the an
nouncement that the number of train
crews will be increased this week by
the addition of a corresponding number
of locomotives to the power facilities.
Extensions, which have been in
allegiance since last September. are or
dered carried forward and the work
at INLAY will be completed at an early
date as that place, with its yards and
engine houses, is badly needed.
The answer to all these announce.
ments lies simply in the fact that in
creased and increasing traffic demands
the changes and the fiscal year having
passed, the new appropriations to the
maintenance and expense accounts are
now available.
The order issued yesterday calling
for full force in all the shops affects
$50 men in all branches. The order
increasing train crews affects nearly
80 men directly and indirectly, and the
decision as to extensions affects hun
dreds of day laborers and Others not
now employed.
Sparks dejoiced yesterday with the
return of its prosperity, and as the
order more than doubles the monthly
payroll at that place. All work is TO
be full time, eight hours a day and at
the regular wages, and beginning this
morning the shops will hum with ac-
tivity in every department.-Reno

CARTRIDGE CACHE
UNEARTHED

Yesterday E. B. Johnston, the
Southern Pacific detective, and Joe
LaVoy unearthed what they consider
a robbers splant" under large
sagebrush about 100 yeards west of
the powerhouse. The property consist
ed of some 600 rifle cartridges and
few smaller articles of merchandise.
The plunder was loaded into wagon
and delivered to Sheriff Lamb. Efforts
are now being made by the railroad Of
icials to identify the goods.
Sheriff Lamb is of the opinion that
the property was not cached by rob-
bers, but was dumped there years ago
by someone, as the cartridges are those
used in the Spencer rife, which went
out of style some time during the last
generation. The fact that a speculum
was in the outfit would lead to the
conclusion that the parties were Of a
scientific turn of mind. After shoot
ing a man or beast, as the case might
be, they would be enabled to make
critical examination Of the wound.
