"eraustark.v
backwards

An attraction that has created a great funore throughout the country will be seen at the Auditorium Sun day, November 21, when "Gnaustark," :" the dramatic version by George D. Baker of George Barr McCutcheons s novel of the same name, will be pre- scented. This play has proven to be even better than "Brewster's Mil. lions" by the same author, and has placed MT. McCutcheon far ahead of any other American writer oe dra- matic stiories.
 "Graustarx' was produced for the first time in Pittsburg and created such a profound sensation that New York managers began bidding for the honor of offering the play in their theaters. The New York engagement demonstrated that this story of love and intrigue, with it's magnificent pro- duc;ion of scenic and electrical effects and picturesque costumes, sumpasses anything seen in a decade, as an en. tertainment to especially please la- dies. The fair sex turned out en- masse and with their stamp of approv- al 1t is easy to see why "Graustark" Is such big success.

ABANDON NEW
 CANAL PROJECT MOVEMENT TO BUILD A CANAL THROUGH COLUMBIA HAS
 BEEN DISMISSED.
Commission Has Been Appointed to Separate Columbia from Panama Contracts Could Not
 Be Closed.

Facatativa, Columbia. Nov. IT, Louis Arturo Undurraga, the Chilean engineer, has definitely determined to abandon his efforts to obtain from the Colombian government a conces- sion for his canal project, owing to the fear entertained by Colombia of reprisals on the pant of the United States. Undurraga's plan was to con- struct rival to the Panama Canal, the route extending from the Gulf of Darien along the Atrabo river and it's bran.hes across Colombia to the Pa cific.
 President Gonzales Valencia is making desperate effort to have congress adjourn sine die, but the senate is determined to reconyene in February and May to elect a presi- dent.
 Paxton P. Hibben, secretary to the American legation at Bogpta, has left suddenly for Washington, without making known here the reason for his departure.
 In furtherance of his plan for a canal, Undurraga sought to induce the congressman and members of the di- plomatic corps to inspect the route at his expense, but all declined. A Colombia official stated that it appear ed inopportune to grant concession to the Chileans before their adoption of the treaty defining the boundary be- tween Panama and Columbia.
 When this matter had been settled, he added, the government would prob ably grant the concession
 Letters exhibited here indicate a. willingness of Germany and British capitalists to build a commercial and nonipolitical canal that could not be closed in the event of war. Unless the concession is granted it is feared that the disccntent fomenting at An tioqua and Cauca will eulminate ir a revival Of threats of secession.
 Unduwuga will sail on November 27 for England by way of New York. The president and congress have ap- pointed 2 commission to investigate the separation of Panama from Col ombia.
 Francisco De Borda. recently ap- pointed minister to the United States sailed for that country today.

CARRIED BY PROMINENT TEN. NEssEE VISITOR HERE AS AN
 INTERESTING EXHIBIT.
Veteran Doorkeeper of Tennessee State Senate Recalls Strenuous
 Period of Passing Statewide

Uncle Sam's check drawn In the sum of 1 cent to square accounts be- tween this government and one of it's officers, Is an interesting exhibit made by R. F. Brown, a veteran Ten nesseean, who is a visitor in Hot Springs now.
 Mir. Brown was a member of the national convention at Chicago which nominated Grover Cleveland in his last race for the presidency, and later received an appointment as postmas- ter at Rhea, Tennessee.
 After service for awhile Mr. Brown and the government squared final ac- counts, and later MT. Brown was sur prised to receive a check from the government for 1 cent, which had been overpaid, as observed in the final auditing of the account, This is said to be the smallest check ever drawn by Uncle Sam.
 MT. Brown is the veteran doorkeep CT of the Tennessee state senate, and brides himself on personal ac quaintance with every politician ir that state.
 In speaking of his service as senate doorkeeper he admits that the most strenuous period of his career was during the last session when the statewiders made an onslaught or the senate creating scenes which are yet vivid in the minds of those who followed the press accounts of tha campaign for legislation.

The story is one of absorbing interest and promises to rank among the best of this seasons s products of American authors.
 By some it is pronounced the equal of The Lion and the Mouse" or "The Man of the Hour" The engagement in this city will be limited to one per formance and the production will be one of the dramatic events of the season. Miss Marion Sherwood, who portrays the leading feminine role, is well known to the theater going pub lie and is an ever welcome favorite.

AT THE AUDITORIUM
Johnson-ketcheI Fight.


 During the Johnson-Ketchel fight picture you will see Ketchel knocking Johnson down, while the colored champion rises groggily to his feet and Ketchel scenting victory rushes in to finish the battle without q though of guarding himself and is met by Johnsen with the left hook on Ketchel's face, followed by terrific right-hand punch which landed square ly on Ketchel's mouth and nose. The force of the punch knocked Ketchel to the floor like log and Johnson to the floor over Ketchel's prostrated body. It also knocked the entire row of Ketchel's magnificent set of teeth going through the leather padded glove of Johnsons left hand, which you will see him showing to the news paper men after the fight. This with out doubt is the most sensational finish of any prize fight of the world, which will be presented at the Audi torium on Thursday and Friday nights November IS and 19.
