THE HAND OF MAN.—OCT. 11. Saturday. 11, afternoon and evening is the date for the presentation at the Park Theatre. Butler, of Lem B. Parker's famous sensational dramatic success "The Hand of Man", is one of the most successful of this seasons theatrical productions. It has met with an enthusiastic reception in all the larger cities where it has had an un precedented run. Prices 25. 85 and 50 eta. FROM EAST TO WEST.—OCT. 13. Katie Eminett, who is producing her new and thrilling melodrama '-From East to West." is regarded by competent authority as the best dialect actress on tbe stage to-day. Her ear is remarkably acute and any variety of speech im presses her instantly, and she is able to produce it without d'fficnlty. THE MIDDLEMAN.—OCT, 14. By arrangement with Mr. Daniel Frohuian, Louis J. Russell will present the famous drama of "The Middleman" at the Park Theatre, Tuesday evening. Oct. 14. Nature has favored Mr. Russell in giving him a fine equipment mentally and physically. His feelings are deep, and the means at his command for their adequate utterance, extraor dinary. A company of exceptional kbility ably assist this talented actor, and the staging of the play is complete Duss.—THURSDAY, OCT. 10. Ducs's organization is the largest company of musicians in tbe world, at least the largest musical organization en tour, and it is not a brass hand. The The word band is commonly applied to any dozen gaudily-arrayed horn blowers who may choose to organize and travel from town to town, but as applied to the Duns organization it means a great deal more, for Duss heads the largest and most expeniiive gathering of musicians ever taken out side of New York City. Over one hundred jiersons are represented on the Duss pay role, and seventy-two of these take part in the concert. This number includes both vocal and in strumental soloists. WAY DOWN EAST.—OCT. 17. Win. A. Brady realizes that generosi-1 ty in making a prodnction pays well. When he staged "Way Down East" so lavishly ho knew what he WBS doing. The scenery, company an'l accessories are of the best; thiH the public was quick to recognize and the patronage has lieen beyond the expectations of even Mr. Brady himself. Grand Opera House, I'ittslHii-g. "Charley's Annt", which will be seen at Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, the week of October 13, is probably the most ridiculous comedy ever written. The fact that it entertained London theatre-goers for an uninterrupted run of two whole years, and duplicated its success in New York City, where it en joyed a continuous stay of one year, with another year iu Boston, is the strongest kind of endorsement that could possibly be desired. Popularity of "Seventy -■even. The popularity of '"Seventy seven," Dr. Humphreys' Famous Specifics for Grip and Colds, is due to: The cures and the way they are made. The quickness of the cure, breaking up a Cold promptly. The completeness of the cure, no ill effects left behind. The tonic effect, the energy is sus tained during and after the Cold. The convenience, a small bottle of pleasant pellets that fit* the vest pocket. At all Druggists 26 cents, or mailed on receipt of price. Doctor's Book Free. Humphreys' Homeopathic Medicine Co..
