Major McKinley was visited by two senators this morning nnd with other calls passed a busy forenoon. lie had several conferences of Importance , but the KMitlcmen were rather reserved as to their mature. Among the early callcra were ex-Senator Sanders of Helena , Mon.i Senator Ilrown of Utah and General Ohatlca II. Collls of Now York. Senator Sanders said his mission to Can'on ' was for the purpose - pose of saying a good word for General At- ger , "But , " said tlio senator , "I sec there is no necessity for that now. General Alger will make a good official. " Mr. Wilson of Iowa left at 10:30. : When seen at the Fort Wayne train ho was very reticent , but It was not difficult to Infer from his talk that ho Is more than a cabinet possibility and might accept a cabinet port folio. Ho said thac the fact thai an Illinois map la already In the cabinet would not preclude a member being chosen from his Btato or Section. Mr. Wllscn Is supervisor of the agricultural works In the Iowa Agri cultural college and since 1S91 Jias been di rector of the experimental station there. Ho Is of Scotch birth , but has been a resident of Iowa , for forty-ono years. He was for six years a member of the Iowa legislature and served In the Forty-third , Forty-fourth and Forty-eighth congresses. Ho was rail road commissioner In 18S2 In the Interim of his congressional career 'between ' the Forty- . Mr. Wilson fourth and Forty-eighth congresses. son was speaker of the Iowa house from 1872 to 1S74. In congress he was known as "Thu " " "Pair Master" and became "Whip" or a very popular member. Ho Is the foremost reprc- scntatlvo of the farming Interests of hla state. Lieutenant nnd Mrs. Timothy L. Woodruff of Now York arrived In the city on the 1:10 : train on the Valley railroad this afternoon to visit Major McK'lnley. ' They wcro met at the depot by Captain Hctsland and were driven to the McKinley residence In the family carriage. They had lunch with the major and a conference ensued. Senator Drown of Utah , who with General Collls of Now York left at 2:05 : for Wash ington , said their . visit at the ilcK-lnloy home had been pleasant , but that It bad no political slKnllicanco. General Collls said hla talk with Major McKinley was satisfactory. Ho said in talking over the policy , of the Incoming administration that Major McKIn- ley's deslro was to ralso the country from the llmp ! < ng , halting ga't ' which had char acterized the past four years and have It come , forth erect , honorable and take Its place at the front of all nations. To tlvls end General Collls said evpry effort would bo made to place In operation a tariff measure - uro by July 1 that would bring activity to Industrial Interests all over the country. Among the afternoon callers was James Albert Chambers of Plttsburg. llobert J. Loveland and A. L. Lawshe of Converse , Ind. Lieutenant Governor1 Timothy L. Woodruff nnd wlfo of New York left this evening for Cleveland , where Mr. Woodruff expects to BOO Cha'lnnan ' Hnnna. Mr. Woodruff said ho had come hero to talk over the New York situation and particularly to recommend General Woodford for the navy portfolio. While nothing of a definte- nature had been accomplished , ho said he felt confident that Major McKlnloy wants to place a. New York man In the cabinet. As to whether or not Mr. Woodford will bo the man Mr. .Woodruff says he has no actual knowledge. Wood- ford and Woodruff arc neighbors In Drooklyn nnd excellent friends.

( Special Tele gram. ) Before the senatorial ballot was taken In Joint session today pairs were an nounced between Senators Case and Keith , Craig and Hlncklcy , Representatives Holvcr- son and Gunntcon , Dean and Purdln , Howell and Lilly , Blackstone and Thompson. The vote on the ballot was : Plcklcr. 48 ; Kyle , 27 ; Goodykoontz , 14 ; Plowman , 11 ; Loucks , 8 ; Kcllar. 2 ; Palmer , 1 ; Taylor , 3. Both houses today attempted to clean up their calendars of bills and no new busi ness was Introduced. The house passed the bills regarding punishment of treasurers for embezzlement ; relating to garnlshcc ; to pro tect persons nnd property from Injury from steam engines on public highways ; relating to payment of taxes with county warrants ; prohibiting use or nlckel-ln-thc-slot ma chines. The senate passed a bill relating to ad justment between counties and townships. A committee ; consisting of Senators Jack- eon , Burllngamo and Kink and Representa tives Wright , Williamson , Storlle and Ander son of Klngsbury , was named to visit the different state Institutions. Senator Kyle thinks that the delay In cau cusing until next Wednesday night U < n hla favor. Telegrams and letters arc com ing from leading populists of the state de manding that the members get together ar.d select some one , and Kyle thinks ho Is the man who will bo finally selected. Kyle has In the different ballots taken se cured forty-ono votes , within one of enough to nominate It ho could over have bunched them on ono ballot. The republican caucus dcctaloi last night to glvo their steering committee authority to name some other candidate than Plcklcr without caucus ac tion means that they nro likely at any time to put up a candidate who they think might draw populist or democratic votes. Senator Kyle has appointed M. W. Shcafe colonel and H. S. Volkmar captain as rep resentatives of the national guard at the inaugural ceremonies of McKinley. The house has passed senate bill No. 1 , the railroad bill , without n dissenting vote. Several amendments were presented and Jumped on so hard that they coan had no existence and on the final passage every mem ber voted for the hill. It will receive the signature of the governor as soon as the en grossing committee can get It out. It Is a bill with the main provisions of the Iowa law , but la amended In minor particulars to suit different conditions. If the railroads had presented a bill giving partial relief two years ago , It could have been passed , and the present radical law would rot have been so Imperatively demanded by Jhe people of the state. House bill 203 Is an appropriation for the services of Silas G. Irish as lieutenant In the Dakota militia in 1802. The appropriation Is for $221 principal and $520.80 Interest from 18C2. At that tlmo territorial war rants were- Issued for the amount duo. but from some reason they wcro never presented for payment , and remained In possession ot Irish until his death , at some point in Iowa when his son-in-law found some tlmo ago , - - them among old papers which were among his effects. The son-in-law sent -them to the state auditor , who could not pay them , as there was no money available for that pur pose , and the bill has now been Introduced to take them up. A gopher bill has been Introduced which has the saving clause that It is optional with county commissioners whether they provide for the bounty or not. The minimum bounty provided for striped gophers Is 2 cents apleco , and at a low estimate of five gophers to the acre they would swamp any county It the bounty was Imposed. An echo of the capltol removal came up In the senate when nn effort waa made to get a favorable report on a deficiency bill In which Huron parties wcro Interested , who had been making the fight for capltol re moval. The deficiency was fought by Sena tor Horner and others , nnd was killed by a majority ot two. TO nOXATB I-i.YXD FOIL LIIII1AUIKS. IIIllx Introilnccil In ( lie Wyoming ; I.ec- IMHdinUuIrfruity Levy.

( Special ) In the house of representatives a petition was presented from the citizens of Douglas praying for the defeat of house bill No. 32 , which provides for the division of the pro ceeds of gambling and liquor licenses be tween cities and counties. Petitions from other Wyoming cities are also to bo pre sented , for the same purpose. W. II. Kelly of Laramie county Introduced a bill by which miscellaneous publications and books may be added to the slate library , and mak ing a donation of 15,000 acres of land from the public lands ot tbo state for the purpose of raising revenue to maintain and Increase the library. AUo a bill donating 1B.OOO acres of land tor the maintenance ot county libraries , and a like amount of land for supporting the state law library. In committee of the whole the house dis cussed at length the bill fixing a levy ot one- fourth of a mill for maintaining the State university at Laramle. It was urged by a number of the members that consideration of the hill should bo delayed until an Item ized statement of the expenses of the uni versity for the past two years tbould be furnished by the treasurer ot the Institu tion , as required by law. The friends of the measure urged that the proposition for delay wns made with the ultimate Intention ot defeating the hill. On behalf of the treasurer of the university It was eald that his failure to make a statement of the ex penses of the past two years was done ad visedly , as the law requiring the statement is defective. Mr. Kelly of Laramie county- produced a statement which ho stated was an Itemized statement of the expcnjcs. and which had been mislaid , The bill was finally recommended for passage by the com mittee. In the senate Mr. Cross Introduced a bill providing for the reclamation ot the arid lands of the state and selling them to settlers In tracts of ICO acres at 60 cents per acre. OIIM NATIOXAI.

I AMUSEMENTS. _ ' | * ? ftrtt The oft-rcpoatcd assertion , the truth of which Is quite generally acknowledged , that the average Hoyt force will drlvo a sensitive man to drink , had ample confirmation the other night , when "A Illack Sheep" opened to a largo audience at a local theater. To see the crowds of men going out nnd In between the acts , trampling over men , women and children In tholr path like so many thirsty Juggernauts , was an Instruct ive , If not an edifying spectacle. To bo qulto accurate , they wcro not as a rule sensitive men , but rather the ordinarily honest and not over-refined citizens who find the plays of Mr. Hoyt amusing and who consider Mr. Hoyt a satirist. Dut tholr exits and their entrances wcro Just as much of an unmiti gated nuisance to those whom they Incon venienced , as If they had been gentlemen ; In which case , to bo sure , they would not have run in and out at all , but would have brought In their drink with them If they must have It , and taken It out of the bottle In their scats. A drunkard may still have gcntlcmanllko attributes. There Is hope for him that he may reform. But a man who will rise up three or four times In the cottrso ot a play of ordinary length and make a whole row ot his fellow creatures rise up also to let him out that ho may drink some thing alcoholic and como back to suffocate his neighbors with the fumes thereof such a man Is beyond the pale of all but divine mercy. Ho Is practically one who does not so much interrupt the play by going out for drinks as ho Interrupts the steady flow of his drinks by dropping In to see the play whllo the bartender rests. Possibly with out being nwaro of It , a man who cannot sit through a four-act play without a drink Is pretty far gone. Ho ought to take the euro or put himself under restraint. Ho Is an Insufferable nuisance , which by Its con tinued and unregulated existence gives the female wearer of big hats to declare with some show of truth , "I'm a lady , I am , and I don't care who knows It. " The drop curtain at one of the local houses was painted by a resident artist'of no small skill and a reputation hi his art consider ably wider than the city limits. For pres ent purposes lie may be called John Smith. Ho Is a man not learned In the ancient tongues , though a handy man with the brush. Wherefore , when ho came to sign the cur tain Jn question , desiring to make use of the familiar skeleton of the Latin word plnxlt , ho boldly set down "John Smith , P. X. T. " filling the abbreviation full of periods. The signature as It stands has been a stumbling block to many who , Ilka the painter , have not been sufficiently In structed In the dead languages or have for gotten their Latn. It formed a topic of discussion the other night for several people who were attend ing the theater In question. Only one could offer a satisfactory explanation ot the Ini tials. Ho thought the "X" might stand for " & , " In which case the whole Inscription might be read , "John Smith , Painter and Trimmer. " Thomas W. Keene , the tragedian , Is con sidered ono of Iho most entertaining talkers In the protesslon. He has a wonderful memory ot Incidents In his career on the stage and whenever he meets a party of friends ho Is apt to Indulge In story telling and reminiscences. Not long since , whllo he was being entertained , he was asked by ono of Jils friends what incident In hU stage career Impressed him most. He replied : "I think the one that most Indelibly stamped Itself upon my memory happened at the tlmo. I was playing an engagement at what Is now known as Robinson's opera house. In Cincinnati , at the tlmo when the late I3ob Miles was the manager. At this tlmo President Garflcld was on his deatliT bed. The theater was crowded , and I was playing 'Richard III. ' Just as I had spoken the line , 'How awful Is this gloom , ' In the tent scene , Miles whispered from the wings , 'Garfield U dead. ' I Immediately rose from my haunted couch , divested myself _ sud denly of the character , and walked to the footlights. I said solemnly , 'Ladles nnd gentlemen , the president Is dead. The audi ence Is dismissed. Please go out quietly. ' There was not a word spoken by anyone In the audience that I heard , and everybody departed as I had requested them. Fre quent comments were made at the time , and have often been heard since the Incident , on the singular and appropriate expression which I used In my lines Immediately pre ceding the announcement of Garfleld's death. " Eleanor Morettl. whoso performance of Hoxy In "Pudd'nhoad Wilson" Is well re membered In this city , has been engaged by Manager Harley to create the leading part In F. Marlon Crawford's "Dr. Claudius , " which U to bo produced by E. M. and Joseph Holland at the Fifth Avenue theater. Now York. Arnold Daly , the Chambers of the old "Pudd'nhoad Wilson" company , will also try his hand at "creation , " having "been selected to originate the part of Jack Manley In the now play , "John Rradley's Money , " which will he produced next week. fv Kvctits. Thomas W. Kecno will play DJ brief en gagement at Doyd's theater , beginning next Tuesday evening. Ho will no doubt bo cordially welcomed. Charles D. Hanford. a popular young tragedian , who wns formerly with Booth and llarrctt. Is associated this season with Mr. Keene In the dual capacity of leading man and manager. The union of the professional Interests of these two tragedians Is a combination similar to that In which the lamented Booth and Barrett were Joint stars. Mr. Kceno and Mr. Han- ford have received very cordial recognition and generous financial support. Mr. . Kccne has decided to open hU engagement with "Richard III , " This Is the play In which ho made his debut as a Shakespearean star at thi > Boston theater many years ago and with which ho has ever since been liulcntl- flcd. Ho Is by many regarded as the on'y Richard on the American stage , and as the Richard of Shakespeare. Mr , Hanford will appear as Richmond. Shakespeare's tragedy , "Othello , " will bo given at the Wcdnrsdiy matlneo. Mr. Kecnc will appear in the title role and Mr. Hanford as lago. "Julius Caesar" will bo given Wednesday .evening. It has been several years since Mr. Keene appeared In this play. Mr. Hanford will tppear as Marc Antony , a character In wh'sh ho won distinction with Booth and Barrett. An elaborate production of this great his toric tragedy U announced , and as the play has not been seen In this city for seve.Ml years , Its presentation by Mr , Kecno w'll no doubt attract more than ordinary In tercut nnd a largo audience. The staging of the play Is said to be worthy of the highest commendation , Th Woodward Theater company will ho the drawing card at the Crolghton for two weeks , opening with a matlneo today , at which "Struck Gas" will bo iirosentod. "Arabian Nights" will bo tonight's bill , The program will ho changed at each per formance. The company. It la said , has been both enlarged and Improved slnco It was last seen hero and the repertory In cludes a number of now plays. Edison's Improved magnlscope will bo Introduced as a special feature at each performance , n scries of now pictures being presented , "Paul Davtmt" will < be the Tuesday bill. ivhllo "All IsNot Gold that Glitters" will 110 presented at the two performances Wednesday , "Ten Nights In a Barroom" Is announced as the play for Thursday and "Myrtle ' Ferns" will bo presented Friday night. The usual low prices will , be In force throughout the engagement. When Sousa comes to Boyd's on Sunday , February 7 , for the concerts he will find a ( velcomn watting for him which will make 111 in proud. His peerless baud Is now trav ersing the entire country , covering a ter ritory of over 21,000 miles and his concerts hio are a part of the eorle.s. What Strau > [ a to the waltz Sousa may fairly bo said to bo to the march. If In the waltz ho lacks that elasticity so eminently Viennese , in the march Sousa must ho considered pre- 311 In cut in the stirring effect that hr irouees. A Canadian woman gravely re oiarkcd that she hoped America and Hug land would never go to war whllo Sous- remained to direct the "Liberty Bell ' inarch , Tor men would go straight to the cannon's mouth with It , 01 hU conducting ot tbo march Sousa says : ij'\fy march , uncon sciously , too , follows tiio.stride of the cav alryman , I try to Infuse all my marches with the military aplrl | . My men follow mo absolutely. I havokt\own \ them to or rlvo at a town and gdi oa.tlio stage almost too tired to hold their instruments. I am a believer In will power , /ind I hnvo gone on the stage with the determination to dc the best In tny Hfo. And every man has freshened up and done his best , too. " The mood of the moment Is' quickly noticeable In Sousa's work , as In that of all conductors ! but the change of manner Is moro distinctly noticeable In his case than with the ma jority. "Tho Wizard of the Nile. " the success of which has not been equaled In the field of comic opera productions In many years , will bo presented at the Crclghton In the near future , when It will be seen entirely now as a production , the scenery and cos tumes having been wholly replaced. The cast will remain Identical with that of the opera's first great season , with a single ex ception. Among those artists surrounding Frank Daniels the only new face will ap pear In the role of Cleopatra , and Messrs. LaShello & Clark count on an Immediate and pronounced hit for their new prlma donna. The chorus Is as large , as talented and as pleasing to the eye as heretofore. "Tho Wizard of the Nile" lias recently been accepted for production by Manager Jauner of the Carls theater , Vienna , where It will have Its first European hearing early In September. It Is confidently predicted by those familiar with the Viennese public that Its success In the Austrian capital will bo so great that the opera will bo produced In twenty different European cities before the end of the season. Negotiations are also pending with one of the foremost ot Lon don's managers for a production In England , and Williamson and Musgrove , the Austra lian managers , have already made nn offer for the Australian rights , Not since "The Mikado" Jias an opera achieved such suc cess In n season as to malco It a desirable commodity throughout the civilized world. Manager Crawford has made arrangements with Edward E. Rico 'to present his mag nificent production ot that favorite bur lesque. "Evangellne , " at Uoyd's for three t.'lght , 'beginning Thursday next , with n matinee on Saturday. "Evangellno" was selected as the attrac tion for Manhattan Dutch during the sum mer months , and afterwards transferred to the Garden theater , New York City , where Its success was so encouraging that It was moved at the close of Its engagement there to Ilammerstcln's new Olympic theater. The engagement In Omaha will begin ai Doyd'c theater next Thursday evening , when It will bo presented wittiJill the new scenery , beautiful costumes , dazzling brlHancy , pretty girl. ? , bewildering ballets , and Interpreted by one of the strongest organizations of bur- losqucrs Mr. Hies has over had. George Fortcsque , who has long been Identified with the role of Catherine : D n Iaaon , one ot the beat German comedians , will Interpret ths Captatu ; Sherman Wade , n funmaker of note , will be seen hero as ths Policeman , ami Frederick Melville , a character actor , is alsc In the cast. Maude Courtnay , who was lasl season with " 14D2 , " will be seen In the title role ; also Viola Fortcsquo- Mae llakor , Lot tie Prince , Madge Edwanls''and others. With the exception of Irene.-Verona , all of the principals were with tlie Ni5w York company. "Evangellne" will mo doubt prove one of the most e-ntcrtalnlng attractions of the season. The usual matlneo will 'be given. The Marie Wellesley conipany played tc two very large audiences at Doyd's yester day. "T'rlss , " or "Uey'ond the Rockies , " was rendered at the matfneb and "Confusion" In tbo evening. In conjunction with "Easl Lynne" at the matlneiS today and with "Th : Streets of New York"this evening , fourteen new vle > s. w'lilch matce'-tfrenty In all , 'will be shown1 uyllutnIcrexlontlcrfnJ1'machine for the reproduction of "m'oUbn pictures.

Last evening at the Crelghton theater the Mendelssohn soclsty gave a performance ol "Pinafore , " a comic opera 'by Gilbert and Sullivan , in tlu presence of n large and en thusiastic audience. Juit why a society de voted to the production of comic opera should bo named after Mendelssohn , whoso claim to fame rests most upon his oratorios tories r.nd piano music , docs not at this writing appear. Perhaps Mr. Torrons Is con templating giving "Elijah" In costume. As Mendelssohn Is responsible for the paradox , "Songs Without Words , " and as the songs In comic opera are often without words that any ono can understand It may bs perfectly fair to him to name a comic opera com pany In his honor. Ho was a Jolly sort o ! fellow anyway , and would have enjoyed the performance by his latest born lasi evening. Mr. L. A. Torrons deserves much credit for the production of Gllbert'and Sullivan's beau tiful llttlo opera. Ho has rehearsed Ills people during the last three months untir ingly and with a persistence that Is com mendable. As a director ho leaves some room for Improvement , Ills method ot con ducting Is far from clear and distinct , largely from the fact that no matter what kind of tlmo or measure the piece may be written In ho uses only what seems to ho the down beat. This Is very confusing to hla singers , and especially to his orchestra. It U difficult to cetabllih a standard oi criticism for an amateur , performance which shall do justice to the public and to the performers. It goes without saying that evsry person upon the stage did his best , and oftn that best was very good. There was a great deal of talent In the cast. Miss Jessie Dickinson as Josephine deserves much praUo for her finn voles and Intelligent singing , Her stage walk verges upsn the tragic , and at times reminded one -'of Marie Stuart or Lady Macbeth. It I ? 'pretty serious work for a company of amateurs1 to glvo a comic opera , and It Is no wdndeV/thoy gave them selves three cheers whenIf was over. Miai Dickinson has been Uife moving spirit In the whole enterprise'1 'and1 ' possesses mar velous energy. Her SvJluo Is clear and resonant and the high'tdiies especially ef fective. Mr. Luther II.

' Tomorrow evening at the Crclghton thea ter the Omaha Musical society will glvo Its third concert this season. It Is an Im portant event In n city like this when ICO of Its best singers and players glvo a great public performance and present a program of the world's choicest music. It Is Im portant to the musical welfare of such n city that such nn organization and such an undertaking bo patronized , encouraged and supported. Only so can music bo developed as an urban Institution. The con cert to bo given tomorrow evening Is moro Important than any purely local affair could be , for It will be the means and afford the opportunity of hearing several of the great est singers In the world. U was a bold business undertaking to contract for such an attraction , and the Omaha Musical Eoclaty Is receiving much credit and commenda tion for its enterprise and courage. The breaking of the first contract and the finan cial difficulties Involved were a sufficient cause for discouragement and the abandon ment ot the whole matter. But ono never wins In that way. Success may bo slow In coming , but what was worth doing at first ou"ht to bo worth doing at last , and , acting upon that policy , the society decided to carryout - out Us original Intention and Introduce to Omaha the Nordlca Concert company. Of all the vocal artists now before the nubile no one Is credited with greater ability than Mine. Nordlca. Her triumphs have oc curred In every capital of Europe and in hcv own country' America there Is not anil never has been any one to dispute her supremacy. As a dramatic singer she is without an equal , perhaps even In the world. As an actress sh& Is pre-eminent ana her presentation ofs the dramatic rolls in the Wagner music dramas and cperas 13 looked upon as being equal to that of those singera selected by the great composer hlmielf and drilled by him for the Bayreuth festivals. It Is a source of pride to all Americans that one of our countrywomen should have at tained such greatness and It Is a conspicuous event in the history of this city when she Rppears hero in connection with one of Its local musical organizations and gives a per formance such as she will glvo tomorrow In the company with Mine. Nordlca is a singer who has long since convinced the world of the Justness of her claim to be called a great artist. Mmc. Scalchi Is one of the greatest contraltos cf any country or any age. There Is a wlerd , mystic quality to her voice which has charmed thousands upon thousands of people and much of the Interest In tlio program tomorrow evening will center In her. She is ono of the best representatives of the real Italian style ol singing. Earron Borthald was ono of the leading tenors In the Damrosch Opera company last season and was heard here then , He has a powerful dramatic voice , especially well adapted to the Wagner music that he Is to John C. Dempsey Is a barltono of reputa tion , and has been with Mine. Nordlca on her tours during the entire season. Isidore Luckstone , the pianist , Is an artist In his specialty of accompanist , and has been selected by nearly all the great singers during the last ten years to play for them. The chcrus will number 100 singers and may bo expected to do even better work ( ban heretofore. The orchestra will number thirty-three musicians , with Franz Adel- mann as concert master. Their work Is more Important than at any previous concert , and greater excellence may be expected of them. The following U the program : Vorsplel nonbdll . Moszkowskl Musical Society Orchestra.

To the JC'JItor of The Boo ; In the tnuslral department of your paper of last Sunday Mr , Homer Moore stated that the Doyd's theater orchestra waste to bo reduced to four men , The effect from the publication of this statement has been to make the management of thin theater ap pear In a ridiculous light before the public , moro especially with those conversant with musical matters. Thereby It has worked an Injury to this house which was unwar ranted. It Mr. Moore had called upon mo before publishing this statement I would hnvo fully informed him of thefacts. . The regular orchestra of this theater from the llmo Mr. Crawford opened the house on the 1st of September last until two or three weeks ago consisted of nlno men , Including Mr. Ernest Nordln , the very capable loader. At the present tlmo the regular orchestra numbers seven men , and for all standard attractions during the remainder ot the season that number will always bo found In the orchestra. Our orchestra has ro- celvcd the highest pralso from the manage ment .of such companies as David Hender son's Schiller Theater Company , Jacob Lilt's "In Old Kentucky , " Julia Marlowe Taber. Dcnman Thompson's "Old Homestead , " Miller & Peal's "At Gay Coney Island , " Charles H. Yale's "Twelve Temptations. " Sol Smith Rufsell , KJdlc Fey , "Tho Ameri can Girl , " "Alabama , " Corlnne and Dan- croft. The high reputation attained by our orchestra will bo maintained. I. W. MINER , Representative for L. M , Crawford. \V013S OK A TIlUATIllOAIj MAXAC.KIl. AVhou Wnnlcil MontHie Heavy Villain Knlln to AliiH-ur. It appears very likely and probable that F. L. Hllllkor has worked F. L. Sterling , manager of the "Wellesloy Players , " who uro occupying the 'boards ' of Doyd's theater at the present time , for about $ GO. It also seems very likely and probable that Man ager Sterling will have to whlstla for tits money , unless by chance ho will bo able to get hold of sonio of Mr. milliter's clothing or property and attach them. Hllltkor was a stranger to the theatrical manager until something like a couple ot weeks ago. The company was then In Moline - line , Illi , and steps were being taken to strengthen It. Ons of the principal charac ters was especially weak and the manager was casting about for Eomo Individual to take the part. In the course of his search ho learned of Hllllkcr , who was then lu Clinton , la. Manager Sterling bought him self a ticket to. the lown town and went there to sec about hiring Hllllkcr. IHlllker nind his wlfo wcro tied down In the hotel. They could not leave bscauso the hotel pro prietor was holding their trunks , for a board bill. The couple alleged that they had been members of a company that had boon stranded In the town. Sterling believed the story. He waa pleased with llllllker , although he had never seen or heard of him before , and the upshot of the matter was that he hired h'm ' to do the heavy villain part In some of the plays. It was arranged that Hllllker waste to como to Omaha and Join tlio company here on the first night of the engagement , which was last Tuesday. Dy that tlmo Hllllker was to be posted In his part. The theatrical manager settled the beard bill of the II1111- kcrs and purchased tickets for them to tliM city. All qt tnls cost him Just $30. The manager then returned to his company. Hllllker came to Omaha , arriving last Sun day night. Ho put up at the Mercer hotel. Tuesday night the Wellesley Players pre pared to give tholr first performance at the Boyd. Just as the curtain was about to go up It was discovered that Hllllker was luhs- Ing. Ho could not be found and It would not do tt cut the heavy villain out ot the play. Fortunately another member ot the company know the- lines and he took the part In addition to his own. In order to dose so he was compelled to "switch" costumes with a velocity that would have made him a fortune on a variety stage. Hllllker was looked up the next day. U was found that ho had gone and that Manager Wink Taylor was also mourning his departure to the ex tent of $0. the hoard bill that ho had left behind as a memento of his visit. It was learned that he had gone to Coin , la. "It was terrible , " said Manager Sterling , as the perspiration stood out on his brow when ho told the story In pollpo court yes terday. "If wo had not had another man to take the part we would have been compelled to call off the performance , and cancel the engagement and our company would have been stranded In the city. " To manager wanted to discover some means by which he could punish Hllllker. It was found that bo could do nothing. Hllllkcr had not com mitted a felony and therefore requisition papeia could not he Issued for his arrest In Iowa. The manager was sent away with advice to find some of Hllllkcr's trunks and attach them for his bill. The theatrical manager Is of the opinion that Hllllkcr lived somewhere In this sec tion of the country and simply worked him for the price of the fare home.

A Ucinarkublu Cure of Dropsy After Five Years of Agony 2 ! ) Fonda \Vllllanisport , Pa. , March 7,1SOO. Ilobbs Remedy Co. , Chicago : ( .iontlemcn Some live years ago my wife , Mrs. Ijlms. 11. Hall , now 55 years of age , was taken with dropsy and heart trouble , growing worse from month to month. Two years ago she was so side that she was compelled to stop work at every kind. The best phy.slelnas in thla city weie secured , but she grew worse so rapidly and her heart so bad that a year ago they said nothing more could be done for her , as death was liable to como at any time. At this time she measured ten feet around the waist and weighed over . ' ! ( ) ( ) pounds. Owing to her heart trouble the doctors would not tap her , only to keep her from bursting. These operations did no good , as they failed to get a drop oC water from her , claiming that It was in sacks all over her body and they couldn't reach It. For four months she could neither He down or walk. Tlio longest sleep she had during that time was li. > minutes. The smallest cracker would distress her so that she could hardly breathe , yet she dare not take stimu lants. Her sufferings was so terrible that she prayed day and night for death to relieve her from her miseries. Her kidneys did not act more than one gill In-18 hours and then thick with brick dust. Her bowels could only be moved under the most wretched powerful cath artics prescribed by the physician. About this time I saw an advertisement of Dr. Hobbs Sparagu.s Kidney Pills In the \VIlliamsport Kim. I determined to try a box. My wife objected to my spending any more money on her , as she felt that she was past all help. However , she be gan taking them at once. The fourth day they began to do their work , when slio passed two gallons of water In 124 hours. I then got some of Dr. Iloblw Little Liver Pills and they did their work equally n > \ well. After using eight boxes of Dr. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills she Is reduced to her normal weight of about M5 pounds. She has a good appetite and Is doing her own work. People who knew how near she was to death's door pronounced her case nothing less than a , miracle. She is certainly a living monument to the inestimable worth of Dr. Ilobbs Kparagus Kidney Pills and Little Liver Pills. I am thankful to God and your valuable medicines that my poor suffer ing wife can live and be comfortable after the terrible ordeal Hhe has passed through during the past live years.
