For the south to plunge on cotton

the south to engage in a gamble which

When the officers Of the law take
things in their own hands and Stay
each other as was the caes in Thomas
ton Saturday night il is all the more
regrettable for the reason that the
ordinary citizen feels it his right to
do the same when his rights are tram
pied upon and disregarded. Officers
OF the law are poor officers indeed
when they fail to keep cool judgement

Dr. E. J. Lyons, prominent physi- clan (retired) of Lake Charles, La., has put himself squareiy on record in advocacy of the Hobo Kidney and Bladder Remedy. medicine that is producing 4ruly marvellous results for sufferers from Bright's disease and other kidney and bladder troubles.

Finally she could get no relief except when actually un- der the influence of the drugs" Af- ter taking the first bottle of Hobo Kid ney and Bladder Remedy she commen- ced to improve until she had taken ten bottles, when she seemed completely cured. He adds: "She has not had a single recurring symptom and I con- slider her cure complete and perman- ent."

searches for his papers Jen tells him that she has devilered them to the commandant at Rise Post.
 Tom is grateful and announces his intention to ride to the post. She seeks to prevent his departure by threaten ing to shoot him, and in her agitation the revolver is discharged and Tom falls unconscious. When she is search ing for bandages Pierre returns to the cabin and embraces Jen. Val en- ters at the junction and is about to kill Pierre when the mounted police arrive. Val forces Pierre at the point of his gun to acknowledge himself the slayer of Gray Cloud, and they leave with their prisoner, leaving Tom in the care of Jen. Explanations follow and all ends happily.
 This perturbation was made by Charles Maigne, and the photoplay was excellently directed by Marshal Nellan, Thomas Meighan gives a strong, virile impersonation of Ser geant Tom, while the Pierre of E. l.. Fernandez is an exceptionally clever performance. Matt Moore as Val and Sidney D'Albrook as the Indian are artistic.

BEST THEATRE. Elsie Ferguson In "Heart of The Wild'; Today and Tomorrow.

Best theatre patrons again have de- lightful Elsie Ferguson with them. Her engagement runs through today and tomorrow, and she is presenting "Hearts of the Wild" picturizing Ed gar Selwyn's Pierre of the Plains wherein Miss Ferguson won great fame as speaking actress.
 The versatility of Miss Ferguson was never displayed to finer advan- Ntage than in this superb story. Ac- customed as she has been to the de- lineation of subtle roles, such as Nora in "A Dolls House" which was re- gently seen here, and similar strong Dhotoplays, it is distinct novelty for her admirers to see her in a pho- toplay of the West, in which she does daredevil riding and other stunts so often seen in red-blooded plays of the Western variety.
 As Jen, the daughter of tavern keeper on the Standardization borders, who sells whiskey to Indians. despite the excise law, Miss Ferguson has a role of the deepest dramatic in- terest. Her brother, Val, stays Gray Cloud, an Indian chief, who has made an insulting proposal to him regard ing Jen. The mounted police are mo- tified of the murder and a strenuous pursuit, is at once begun. Sergeant Tom Gellantly, who loves Jen, receives the order to go to Archangel Post and there seek to capture the fleeing assassin. He stops at Galbraith's rlace, and announces to Galbraith that he has sealed orders and is on his way to capture the murderer of whose identity he is, of course un- aware.
 Galbraith and Pierre, cowboy, loves Jen places laudanum in his coffee and stupery him. Jen, who loves the sergeant, seeks in vain to revive him. and on learning that he has secret or ders to deliver to the mounted police at Archangel Post she takes the pack ct from his pocket, dons his hat and coat and rides away for the post Or her return that night the sergeant is | still unconscious, and unable to arouse \hinn, Jen becomes anxious. She ther Marns with horror of the trick played uhpn him by her father and Pierre anAo the part she has played t bringA about the arrest of her brother Tom iA at last aroused, and when h.

CLOCK WEIGHT FELL
CRASHES THROUGH SOLID cE.
MENT AT COURT HOUSE

An accident which might have prov
en- very disastrous happened at the
court house at quarter of five Sat
urday afternoon, when one of the huge
weights Of the town clock broke loose
and crashed through the ceiling of the
third floor
The weight, which is heavy, in the
neighborhood of twelve hundred
pounds is held by half inch steel
cable and is enclosed in a wooden cas-
ing. The clock had just been wound
and the weight dropped a distance of
fifty feet before meeting an obstruc-
ton. II went straight through the ce-
ment floor of the third story, breaking
the iron braces as though they were
SO much kindling wood. II then struck
the iron railing of the stairway, tear
ing it down. but in some way bounced
back onto the steps, and here its jour.
ney ended.
The cable has probably never been
changed since the clock was installed
away back in the eighties, and is far
past repair A new cable must be sent
for and 20 we will be without the use
OF town clock for the next few days
