To-night's I'luy.
"The Siian of Life" has been for several
seasons a reigning favorite In the dramatic
firmament. Its return after an absence of
two years will no doubt ha the occasion of an
outiwurlng of those amusement seekers who
prefer their entertainment spiced With a dash
of realism. Nothing more realistic than the
bridge of human bodies in "The Span of
Life" can be conceived, and the lighthouse
scene Is conceded to be a marvel of stage
mechanism. The story has been told in
these columns before. The play Is preaonted
this season by an exellent company including
George O. Staloy, Eobert Neil, Williahi
Friend, W. W. Allen, A. K. Adams. George
Elwell, 1'rItE Arthur, Dclphine Pcrrault,
Rachel Sterling, Clara Coleman, Florence
Foster, and Little Daisy, tho wonderful child
actress. Tho Don.netti Trio of acrobats has
betn especially engaged for the human
bridge. This play will occupy the boards at
Ferguson's theatre this evening.
Death oT David Dyke.
David Dyko, one of Ceutralia's oldost and
most highly esteemed citizens, died yester
day morning from the result of a paralytic
stroke. Ho was first stricken down about
four weeks ago, and a week later had a
second seizure. A fow days ago ho had a
third stroko that left him weak and helpless,
and since then his death bad been antici
pated. Ho was born in Wales, on July 4th,
1880, and came to this country In his youth.
He is a member of tho G. A. It. and is sur
vived by a wife and two daughters and two
sons Tho funeral will tako place on Sunday
afternoon.

'the Stores AV1I1 Close.
The most successful and enthusiastic meet
ing of tho clerks was held in Wilkinson's hall
last evening, which was attended by 75
people. The potltlon for closing early was
presented and signed by 31 business proprie
tors, which included some of every branch
witli the exception of clothiag dealers. It
was uuauimously agreed that these stores
will close on and after Tuesday, March Och,
at 7 p. in. It is the opinion that many more
of tho business men will consent to clo&e
when the timo arrives to d so.
This Opportunity Should Not bo Lost.
Tho world is filled with suffering people
who can't seem to get well or find out what
their trouble is. Such people, oftentimes can
not aflbrd the time or expense of a trip to the
city, or ths large fees charged by the best
physicians. It is for just these people that
Dr. Greene, of 35 West 14th St., New York
City, who is without doubt the most success
ful specialist in curing diseases, makes tho
following offer. Ho invites you all to write
him about your complaints, tell him bow you
feel, and he will answer your letter free of
charge, explaining the meaning of every
simptom, telling Just what your troublo is
aud how to get cured. Write him immedi
ately. It will doubtless result In your cure.
Proven Unsuccessful
The first week of shipping coal from
Delano to tidewater direct over tho Lehigh
Valley railroad has proven unsuccessful.
Very few trains wre able to go through.
When tho trains iuspectod at Packerton a
number of cars were usually found in neod
of repairs, and in shifting them to make re
pairs considerable time was lost. It is
thought hy railroad men that tho system
just inaugurated abounds with too much
trouble and oxpense to make it a success.
