THEATRICAL
During the action of the play, "Wicked
London," by tho Edwin Young Dramatic
Company, Wednesday evening, Miss
Madeline Sadol, AH actress, lost her
temper and showed her displeasure by
insulting the local musical director,
Michael Capece. Tho attack was
brought on while Miss Sadol was en
deavoring to sing, ller music called for
march time, but she evidently wanted a
galop, to judge by the remarks, "faster,"
"faster" and the stamping of her feet.
The audience resented her insult to the
pianist by returning loud hisses as she
retired from the stage.
Tho company gave a good perform
ance of "Wicked London" to a large
audience, all the members of the com
pany taking their parts in a satisfactory
manner. They will likely appear hero
again later in the season.

Tho Stephenson Quartette, which ap
pears here on Tuesday evening next,

city by those who wish to greet these
favorites.
Reorganizing Council.
The counclluien-elect will take their
,oats on Monday evening, alter the
present body disposes ot its unfinished
business. As tlm new council is over
whelmingly Democratic, there is much
rivalry for the positions and appoint
ments which the members have at their
disposal.
There ar. rumors that some of the
members of the dominant party contem
plate rank treachery by forming combin
ations with the Republicans, hut these
reports are not credited by the Demo
crats. at such action would not be
tolerated by the party.
The Republicans two years ago estab
lished the precedent of reorganizing
council on strict party lines and the
Democrats are justified In doing likewise.
N3w Tims Tables

gratuitous advertising given to Mr.

A powerful engine cannot be run with
a weak boiler, and we can't keep up the
strain of an active life with a weak
stomach; neither can we stop the human
machine to make repairs. If the stom
ach cannot digest enough food to keep
the body strong, such a preparation as
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure should be used.
It digests what you eat and it simply
can't help hub do you good. Grover's
City drug store.
A dynamite explosion at Lattlmer
stripping yesterday seriously injured
John Sharkey, Peter Doni and Vete
Torroll. Sharkey's right hand was

classes of foods may be completely di
gested by a preparation called Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure, which absolutely digests
I what you eat. As it Is the only corabi
-1 nation of all the natural digest&nts ever
devised the demand for it has become
enormous. It lias never failed to cure
the very worst cases of indigestion and
it always gives instant relief. Grover's

long from the top of a forty-foot pole in

Reports show a greatly increased
death rate from throat and lung troubles,
due to the prevalence of croup, pneu
monia and grippe. We advise the use
of One Minute Cough Cure in all of these
difficulties. It is the only harmless J
remedy that gives immediate results, i
Children like it. Grover's City drug

amount of argument could he pursuade
them that he was close to thirty until ho
finally removed his hat, and by his bald
head satified them that he was not only
entitled to the drink, but also to a front
scat at the ballet show. We think this
young man would bo willing to lose the
"drink and the front seat if he could over

him to send for a free sample of
"Luxura." and start his hair growing.

dandruff, prevents hair from falling out,
and promotes a new growth. A written
