You can count the few big roper
toire companies touring the country
at present on your fingers, and as the
Gennett this season has given SOME
sensational surprises at popular prices
10, 90 and so cents. the biggest bomb
yet to be thrown into amusement cir
cles of this city will be this week,
commencing tonight when the Nancy
Boyer company, decidedly first class
in every respect opens it's engagement
with the beautiful drama THE Girl
From Out Yonder." and to make ev.
erything perfect in regard to produc-
ton, a 60-foot car load of scenery is
carried, while the electrical effects
are the latest, in fact each and ever
play presented by the company will
be Il production complete in every de-
tail. while the company supporting
Miss Boyer are artists picked for
their ability along their individual
lines. Miss Boyer, dainty and sweet,
has never been seen to better advant-
age than in the role of "F1otsam" the
lighthouse keepers daughter, a waif
of the ocean, who loves the sea and
to whom the sound of it's waters are
as music to her wild romantic soul.

high classed for the headliner but the
bill this week has two headliners.
The Heidleburg Four, vaudeville
greatest singers, are one of the head
liners. Their singing is perfect and
the selections rendered are full o.
music and harmony The solos rend-
cred in this act are a treat to every
audience. The bass solo is exception
ally good.
The Carnel1as Family, the catapult
acrobats. are the other headliners.
The feats they perform are truly won,
derful. The double somersault per-
formed by the little girl of this COM
pany is one of the most daring on the
vaudeville stage today.
Barnes-Reming Co., have funny
little playlet entitled Mrs. Fotter's
First" 1t shows the awful mixup Of
twin brothers and the trouble is caus-
ed with one of their wives.
Marie Mcneil, the famous cornet
soloist, will give the people of this
city some real cornet playing. She
comes highly recommended and is
sure to prove popular with the audi
ence.

Needful KNOWLEDGE
Richmond People Should Learn to De-
teet the Approach Of Kidney
Disease.

The symptoms of l--sdney trouble are
so unmistakable that they leave no
ground for doubt, Sick kidneys excrete
a thick. cloudy. offensive urine, full Of
sediment, irregular of passage or ct
tended by a sensation of scalding. The
back aches constantly. headaches and
dizzy spells may occur and the victim
is often weighed down by feeling of
languor and fatigue. Neglect these
warnings and there is danger of drop
sy. Bright's disease. or diabetes. Any
one of these symptoms is warning
enough to begin treating the kidneys at
once. Delay often proves fatal.
You can use no better remedy than
Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Richmond
proof:
Mrs F. P Brooks, o15 S. Fifth Street
Richmond, Ind. says: I'VE have used
Doan's Kidney Pills in our family for
years and would not be without sup
ply in the house. I took this remedy
for weakness Of the kidneys and
pains in my back and sides and I
found relief. Doan's Kidney Pills are
deserving Of the strongest endorse
ment."

So Judge Fox Has Been In
formed in a Letter From
Governor Marshall
ANOTHER COUNTY BURDEN
IT Is ANNOUNCED THAT FOR THE
PRESENT ALL GIRLS SEN.
FENCED TO SCHOOL MUST BE
CARED FOR LOCALLY.

Judge Henry c. Fox OF the Wayne
Circuit Court, has received letter
from Governor Marshall informing him
that the capacity of the state school for
girls at indianapolis, has been reached.
and that until notice has been sent
out to the effect that present inmates
of the place have been released, all
girls sentenced to the school must be
cared for locally, either by boards OF
children's guardians, charitable organ
tzations, or In county jails under prop
er conditions.
The situation has been growing
grave for some time, and the COVER
nor's letter was not unexpected. Since
the separation of the school from the
women's prison a large number of in
corrigible girls have been sent to the
school. These girls present one Of
the most difficult problems with which
the state and the circuit court judges
have to deal.
Capacity Exceeded. -.
The normal capacity of the school is
245. Miss Charlotte Dye, superintend-
ent, reported to Governor Marshall that
the enrolment was 1913. The number
enrolled at the close of the recent fis
cal year, September 30, was 321. while
the average daily attendance for the
year was 2S6. 46 or Alag more than the
nomal capacity.
What the local authorities will do
with girls who would otherwise be sent
to the institution is question now Civ
ing the board of state charities, which
has control over such cases. considera-
BILE trouble. Under the law no child
between the ages of three and seven.
teen may be kept in county poor asy-
lum for more than sixty days. The law
provides further that no child shall be
kept in county Jail where conditions
are such that they are compelled to as
sociate with hardened criminals, and
few counties. according to the board,
are equipped to provide proper re-
straint for girls. The comparatively
small number of homes maintained by
boards of children's guardians further
complexities the matter.
Wayne county has number OF girls
confined in the institution but none
have been sent during the past year.

CURB FOR CHINESE EDITORS.
An AIIseeing Yamen In Pelin Makes Mis-
statements and Gossip Pertlous.

| statements ana 6Otstp FoFhvus'
Not long ago some Chinese gentlemen
with horse tails depending from Their
official bonnets saw TO II that an offending
editor was right properly fiogged with
bamboo rods-one hundred lashes were
the editors portion. These gentlemen
had no private grievance; they were
simply putting the new press laws OF
China into operation.
Last year, when everything In China
hummed with the news Of changing 9
order, when the old Empress Dowager
announced from her dragon throne that
she would have O constitution In China
within ten years or know the reason
why, and when the boycott against Japa-
nese manufactures was assuming the
features Of a national movement, some
Of the native papers played fast and loose
with ancient deoorum. They even crjti-
oised the Government. That called for
action from high sources.
Some ysmen In Pekin whose province

there handled obstreperous newspapers
