A Friend of Everybody.
Some men are very sociable and quick
to form friendship with everybody they
meet with. Without a formal intro
duction they talk and joke and are the
center of every society. Everybody
likts them they are "good fellows."
On the other hand, jxu find men cold
and reserved, whose presence in a com
pany means uneasine33 and lack of cor
diality. They hate company and peo
ple hate them, al .hough in most in
stances they should not be blamed for
it. They are sick. Their digestion is
out of order. They cannot eat or sleep;
they cannot enjoy life. Never allow a
slight indisposition and a sour temper
run too far, or else ycu will become a
misanthrope. Use Triner's American
Elixir of Bitter Wine at the first sign
of some slight illness, loss of appetite,
coated tongue, constipation, back ache,
paleness, headache and nervousness. It
will speedily correct the system, ;be-

Z0LAIT1 THE PANTHEOH
Ashes cf the Great Writer Resi
Now in the French Tem

ANTI-SEMITIC PROTEST IS VAIN
They Declare the Honor an "Insult
to the Nation."
Cheer and Groans Greet the Proces
sion Carrying the Ileraalns to
the Pantheon, bnt the
Cheers Predominate.
Paris. June 4. With elaborate c. re
monies the body of the famous author,
Emile Zola, was today placed In the
Pantheon, the French Temple of Fume,
the government making the function
a state affair and the exercises ebing
almost Identical with those performed
when the body of Victor Hugo, the last
great Frenchman to lx bo honored, was
transferred to the Pantheon. The real
ization that Zola was glorified not sc
much as a reward for his prodigious
literary activity as because he was the
first gnat leader In the Dreyfus affair,
which routed the general staff of the
army and- forced France to puree her
self of the charge. of social injustice.
revived whatever is left of the old anl
monitlee that ten years ag divided
France Into two camps.
React lonar m In Bitter Protest.
This Is apparent from the rage ninnl
fi-sted by the former anti-Dreyfus pa
pers. which today are heaping Insult
upon the memory of Zola- as a traducer
of France in his novels, and are cry
ing that the translation of his remains
to the I"antheon Is a national disgrace
These reactionary agencies plainly are
trying to provoke anti-Zola manifesta
tions. In accordance with the arranged
programme the remains which had laeen
lying under a striking bust of the uov
elist in the cemetery of Montmnrtre,
were borne last night in a simple
hearse, followed by the widow and oth
er members of the family and a few
Intimate friends in carriages to th
Pantheon, where the coffin was placed
upon a high catalfalnue erected in the
middle transept beneath a high cupola
Doth Cheers and Groans.
Thousands of persons who had as-
scmbled around the Pantheon raised
cheers and groans, the cheers predom
inating, as the hearse passed and an
attempt by "a few rowdies to start a
hostile manifestation proved a failure.
During the night the-body was watched
over by friends of the famous writer to
prevent iossible manifestations before
the tomb.
Editor Declares It an Infamy.
The rabid anti-Semitic journal La
Libre Parole published an extra de
nouncing the government and parlia
ment in the foulest terms for ordering
the "glorification of Zola," character
izing it as an infamy which will con
vert the Pantheon into a sewer. It
appeals to the people to demonstrate
against "this insult to the country and
their faith."

St. Louis. June 4. "I shall g:o to
the scaffold, if God gives me strenjth,
protesting my innocence. I am ready
to meet my Maker, and it will not be

In these prophetic words William

THE TALK OF
ALL THE TOWN
"The District Leader" atihe
Parmele Next Mon
day Night.
The show that is going to set the
town talking, singing and whistling is
"The District Leader," which comes
to the Parmele Theatre next Monday,
June 8. "The District Leader" had
its first production at the Wallack
Theatre, New York, and it is a satisfy
ing evening's entertainment of the
light variety, and will greatly outclass
many of the productions that have been
more copiously heralded and is more
highly acclaimed.
The story of "The District Leader"
is an intermixture of melodrama.com
edy and comic opera, with a vivacious
bunch of show girls, which combination
produces a happy effects. The melo
dramatic strain without the chorus
girls and the ear tickling musical
numbers might prove to be depressing,
but the occosional introduction of these
lessens the serionsness of the plot,
when the opportunity for a heroic sit
uation presents itself and the tragic
ensemble gives way to the joyous show
girls and the catchy music. Dan Law-
ton and Tim Holloram are rivals for
political honors. The younger man is
in love with his opponent's daughter.
The father of the girl resorts to dis
honest tactics in endeavoring to secure
his election, the plan being to inveigle
his daughte's lover to an opium den
and then cause a raid upon the place,
have the story printed in the news
papers on the morning of election day,
and thereby cause his opponent's down
fall, all of which gives ample opportun
ity for melodramatic effects, many
changes of scene and a variety of
costumes.
"The District leader" may well be
called a "novelty," for it introduces
many things that are really new.
Among the song hits of the piece are
When You Go Out To Dine," "Way
Down in Jersey," "So?" "A Heart
to Let," "Sing Song Sammy Sem,"
"What's the Use of Drearring?"
"Won't You be my Girlie?" and "The
Same Old Story. ' ' When it is eaid that
"The District Leader" is the brightest
and most pleasing entertainment yet
given to the stage by Mr. Howard, it
should count for much, a3 there are
very few writers of late years who
have turned out more genuine musical
hits.
