LlNCOLN'S SON
is SUN STRUCK

LOUISVILLE, KY, June 1.-Robert
T. Lincoln, son of President Lincoln,
was slightly stricken by the heat Mon.
day toward the close Of the ceremo-
MES of unwilling his fathers statue in
the Emancipators native county seat
of Hodgenville. Mr.. Lincoln is &c
years old, and the fierce rays OF the
sun beating down upon the canvas
over his head, the emotion incident to
the occasion and the fatigue of his
journey almost unnerved him.
He leaned heavily upon the arm OF
Henry Watterson, who spoke at the
exercises, and who escorted him to
his car. After eh had spent several
hours there Mr.. Lincoln was complete
ly restored.
His chief regret seemed to be that
his illness had prevented him from
taking the three-mile ride from Hodg-
enville to see the cabin wherein his
father was born.

"Three TWinS."

Three Twins" which comes to
the Lyric Theatre during Old Home
Week, Wednesday evening, Sept.
Sth, is positively one of the best
musical comedies that has ever
been produced. 1t ran for ten
months at the Herald Square Thea
ire in New York.
"Three Twins is musical
comedy with plot and many novel
features. The music titillates and
tantalizes, and the witty lines and
adept clowning excites one to
laughter. Mr.. Jos. NJ. Gates has
so lavishly costumed the beautiful
show girls that they are pleasing
to the eye. In the second act there
are eight of the handsomest Paris
ian Directoire gowns worn by beau
tiful and shapely girls. The cleo
trical effects are marvellous, the
faceograph being distinct novelty,
the electrical aerial swing being an
amazon structure of steel, illumi-
mated with over 1000 electric
lights revolving at a rapid rate
