THE LAND OF THE LIVING.
Interesting Diainn Produced at tho
Academy oOIusic.
''The Land of the Living," a strong
five-act melodrama, was produced at
the Academv of Musln lnt vnnim liv
"a company headed by that very compet-
ent actor, Frank Knirlngton. The
scene of the drama Is located In South
Afilca and Loudon and the story Is full
of action and excltlnir Incidents and
thoroughly intci estltig. In the fourth
act Is a very teallstlc explosion which
destrojs an old bilck btildlng In an
old quartrr ot London and Is incidental
ly expected to kill two poisons. Of
course the latter part of the design Is
frustiated.
Besides Mr. Kurtlngton there arc
many clover people in tho company,
Including C. AV. Tiavis, Neva Hauls
011, 'Elanoia Brodhny and Lola Moiris
see. The drama will bo lepeated this af
ternoon and evening.
N0 ARRESTS WERE MADE.
Al. I". rndiluu Has Something to Say
About That Alleged I'iplit.
Continry to Constable Wchaul Bat
ron's exptessed Intention ho did not
cause the arrest of Hotelkeeper James
Tvlb, of Prlcobuig, and M. F. Faddon,
the owner of the hotel building, yester
day, on tho charge of ptomotlng a pi be
light. On the previous night the con
stable and several olllcois visited Twlss'
hotel and alleged that they put a stop
to a pilze tight after thteo 1 omuls had
been fought. Ai tests weie to follow
jesteiday. When seen by a Tilbune
ltpoiler yesteiday Mr. Fadden said:
"No I have not been unested and
will not be. That threat of an est was
simply a bit of spite woik on Consta
ble Bat ion's pait. Thursday evening
I was told that Bait on contemplated
a raid on Tw Iss' hotel and as I am the
owner of the building I was natuially
anxious to know what was being done
that would wairant such action on tho
pait of the constable. I went to see
Tvviss and asked him for an explana
tion. He told me that ho expected a
number of fi lends at his place that
evening and as a means of enteitalnlng
them had secuted the services of two
Scianton boxois who weie to have a
filendly bout with gloves. As that sort
of entn talnment Is permitted every
vvh'eie I had no objection to offer as I
was positively assuted that nothing In
the wny of a finish fight was contem
plated. "While we were talking Barton and a
numbei of thugs entered the place and
created the only disturbance that took
place during the evening. At this time
the men had not donned their gloves
01 struck a blow and the asseition that
there lounds had been fought Is wholly
inconect. The whole affair was en
glneeied by Ban on to giatlfy a pet
sonal spite and Injuie the house."

The Incalculable amount of good that
Palne's celery compound Is doing In mak
ing sick and oven despalilng people well,
should compel the attention of eveiy ju
dicious person who Is out-of-health.
Tlie undeiljlng cause of nervous debil
ity, apparent in headaches, djspopsla,
sleeplessness and neuralgia, is faulty nu
trition of the entire nervous sjstem
So long ns tho blood Is pale, vvatoiy and
hampered b bad humois the nerves can
not assimilate fiom Its piouer noutlsh
ment, no matter how much food Is taken
Into the sjstem. Palne's celery compound
arouses a heaity appetite, iegulates the
bowels and brings about a noimil action
of the liver. It economizes tho expendi
ture of neivo fot co and makes the blood
a healthy medium, callable of conveying
nutriment to all tho vital organs.
This Is the sweeping and thorough man
nei In which Palne's celerj compound
fices the sjstem not only of lheumatlsm,
eczema, --alt iheum and other diseases
due to Impure blood; but also of neuial
gla, sleeplessness and nervous headaches

IT WAS A FALSE ALARM.
At Lcnst Nothing Itcsuinliling Whnt

Last night about 8 o'clock somewhat
of a commotion was made by the ro
poit that the bod' of a man had been
seen floating in tho Roaring Biook, by
a pedestilan on the Spiuce street
blidge. A ciowd collected and foi a
long time a couple of liundtod palis of
eyes peeied over the tailing Into the
water below tiylnir to make out In the
blackness the foim of a man or some
thing uppioachlng It
A searching pait' with a head-light,
bottowed fiom a passing stieet car,
scorned the banks of the river but found
nothing lesembllng tho object of their
quest. Chief of Police Robllng and
Lieutenant Davis weie also on the
ground but the river 1 of used to give up
anything even to them, If the moon
had been shining and tho bosom of the
biook placid one might be led to believe
that the man who gave the alann was
"floating" and mistook ills own lellec

moon was shining last night and the
bosom of the biook is placid just at
that point. 1
