E S SENTS BEAUTIFUL SOUTHERN STORY YOUNG U MEETS "Down Where the Cotton Blossom Grow" Pleases Large Audience at the Parmele Theater as the Company are Splendid Actors and Always Delightful in Their Acting. The Hreckenridge Slock com pany was greeted by a very re spectable audience at the Parmele last night to witness that beauti ful play of the old south, "Down Where the Cotton Mossoms Grow." And to say the large audience was well pleased but half expresses it. Harry Smith, as Richard Uoone Slanbury, sou of Old Kentucky, was a character well presented by Mr. Smith, who is an up-lo-dale actor. liertha Rennert, as Marian Chandler, a Louisiana heiress, held the reputation already established in I'lattsmouth as a most clever act ress and played her part to per fection and most pleasingly to those present. Fva Lappin, in the character of Tassie Chandler, a Southern Rosebud, as usual, played the part most charmingly. She is also very clever in all her parts and in Ibis one she did ex ceptionally well. Maud Folsom, in the character of Anastatia Lovejoy, a Yankee school mar'm, acted her part to perfection and demonstrated more than ever that, she was an accomplished actress. This article would not be com plete at all did we not, mention Charles Hrerkenridgc as 1. Whit aker, a Yankee lawyer, who, of course, played the part to perfec tion, and it could readily be seen that lie had captured the audience by the demonstrations made every time he appeared. The play was one of the best ever produced here and the com pany, in its entirety, deserves great, credit for the manner in which it was presented. The en tire cast is a capable one, and to gay the least, there is not a poor actor with the company. Tonight will be presented "Nebraska," and as the scenes of this great com edy are nearer home, should call forth an immense audience. The price of admission 10, 20 and U0 cents is within the reach of all, and no amusement-loving lady or gentleman in I'lattsmouth arid vicinity can afford to remain away. The llreckenridge company is deserving, because their plays are all first-class and every lady and gentleman of the cast are first class artists. Don't, fail to attend, and buy your tickets early in the evening and have them reserved at the Hotel lliley. I home, and since the death of Mr, lloolh she has decided that she would feel much more at home in that city. She leaves many warm friends in Plattsmouth, who will wish her well in her old home.

The evening hours were devoted to all sorts of amusement s calculated to make the occasion a most, de lightful one, these amusements being interspersed with conversa tion, the leading topic, for the ladies being "incubators, "'and for the men "Teddy."

Miss Mary Hobscheidt, who had been teaching near Kenosha and had just finished her school, met with an unfortunate accident yes terday afternoon in Omaha. Miss Hobscheidt and Miss Anna More ley went to Omaha yesterday, and in boarding a street car, or alight, ing from one, as the young ladies were making they- way up town to the Burlington station, Miss Hobscheidt was struck by a pass ing car, or fell from a moving car, it is not certain which, and was rendered unconscious. It is supposed the young ladies were going to the station to catch No. 11, as the 'phone message of the accident was not received by Miss Hobscheidt's parents until about 9 o'clock. The message came from Miss Moreley and ony slat ed that Miss Hobscheidt was in jured and in a semi-conscious condition and gave no details of how the accident happened. The unfortunate young lady's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Mike Hob scheidt, and Mrs. William Morley left for Omaha on the first train this morning. Mr. Hobscheidt understood that his daughter had been taken to St. Joseph's hospital and that Miss Moreley was with her, but he tried for over an hour last evening, from 11 to 12 o'clock, to get in telephonic com munication with Miss Morley, but failed lo do so. He was under I he impression that his daughter was very seriously if not fatally injured. Since the above was put in typo Mr. and Mrs. Hobscheidt, accom panied by Miss Moreley and her mother, brought. Miss Hobscheidt home on No. 2 5. The young lady was able to walk to Hie hack by being assisted by Miss Moreley. The accident occurred near the nurliiiglon station at Omaha and was tne lauit oi ine nioiorinan starling the car before the pa sengers had all alighted. Miss Hobscheidt was thrown backward, falling on the pavement with such force as to rentier her uncon scious. A gentleman on I lie car sprang lo her assistance, and in doing so broke his own arm, but with his other hand pulled Miss Hobscheidt out of danger of being run over by the car wheels. Th injured jady was taken lo a near by drug r-tore and an ambulanci sent for, when she was removeii to St. Catherine hospital. Jas. C. Dahlinan. serving his third term as mayor of Omaha, Neb., again was successful in re ceiving the overwhelming support of the voters in the primary elec tion. He also successfully rid himself of a bad case of kidney trouble by the aid of Foley Kid ney Pills, and writes: "I have taken Foley Kidney Pills and they have given ine a great deal of re lief, so f cheerfully recommend them." What Foley Kidney Pills have done for Mayor Dahlinan they will do for any other person bothered with backache, rheuma tism, or any other form of kidney or bladder trouble.

Hexall Orderlies are eaten just like candy, are particularly prompt and agreeable in atcion, may be taken at any time, day or night; do not cause diarrhoea,' nausea, griping, excessive loose- ness, or other undesirable f-; feels. They have a very mild but positive action upon Hie organs with which they come in contact, apparently acting as a regulative tonic upon the relaxed muscular coat of the bowel, thus overcom ing weakness, and aiding to re store the bowels to more vigorous and healthy activity. Hexall Orderlies are unsurpas sable and ideal for the use of children, old folks and delicate persons. We cannot too highly recommend them to all sufferers from any form of constipation and its attendant evils. That's why we back our faith in them with our promise of money back if they do not give entire satisfac. lion.
