THEATRICAL.
The next attraction at the Graml
opera house will be the famous comedy,
"Hogan's Alley." In every big city
where this whirlwind musical comedy
has played It has met approval and a
measureless degree of admiration. This
is the third season and extraordinary
! preparations were made to launch it.
It is a redolent of New York life, full of
pretty girls, bright catchy dialogues
. and the features that appeal to all
I tastes. Little more need tie said. En
! joyinent is ahead, that is certain. Joe
Kernoy and a big company, including
America's leading farco comedy stars,
will interpret it. That It will be greeted
with laughter and delight goes without
saying. See it on Friday evening.
t t t
] Under the auspices of St. Paul's Primi
tive Methodist church, "The Story of
of the German Reformation" will be
given at the Grand opera house on
' | March 18 and 18, under direction of Mrs.
H. E. Monroe, of New York city. Over
100 local people will take part In the
performance.

The history of the stage has not re
corded the production of a play equal in
religious motive to that of Cbas. VV.
Chase's dramatization of "Quo Vadis,"
with the single exception of the Passion
play, which in the judgment of many
Christians is too sacred for stage linper
satioii. No such sacriiige fs attempted
in "Quo Vadis," although the scenes
and varied incidents take place shortly
after tho death of the Divine Master,
and one of tho principal characters in
the play is that of the Apostle Peter,
simple, aged and venerable. If more
such plays were presented It would be
better for the stage in particular and
for the world at large. "Quo Vadis"
will endure as a classic for all time, for
aside from Its strong religious tempera
ment it is one of the most moral, dra
matic and interesting plays ever pro
duced upon any stage.
Reports show a greatly Increased
death rate from throat and lung troubles,
due to tho prevalence of croup, pneu
monia and grippe. We advise tho use
I of One Minute Cough Cure in all of these
difficulties. It Is the oulv harmless
remedy that gives immediate results.

W. E. Nlhclls, of St. Louis, Mo., who

pastor of St. James' church in that
town. In the latter year he gave up
active church work, owing to his age,
but continued to labor unostentatiously.

nieu whose broad and liberal views on
all matters pertaining to the welfare
and advancement of mankind won him
the respect of people of all denomina
tions and he had the warm friendship
and esteem of many not of his own faith.
The deceased was a native of Belfast,
Ireland, and during his life ho was a
staunch advocate for the rights of his
country and its people, and his ancestors
