The coming of Mr. Sanford Dodge
and his talented company of dramatic
artists in Macbeth, Tuesday. April 11th.
will be greeted with delight by all
lovers of the drama. The name of
Sanford Dodge is a synonym of dra
matic excellence, as it lias ever been
connected with the highest class oi dra
ruatic work and this season his pro
ductions are superior to anv he has
ever before attempted. No other at
traction touring the Northwest can
afford to carry the high class artists en
gaged by Mr. Dodge, as no other actor
lias the confidence of the play going
public in this territory to such an extent
that they will give sufficient financia
j support to pay the immense salaries
commanded hv the artists who support
Mr. Dodge this season.

Death of Mrs. Wm. Jeffrey.
On the 28th day ot March occured the
death of Mrs. Wm. Jeffrey, at her
home in Ashton, Sherman county, Ne
braska, aged 08 years, 2 months and 20
davs. The funeral occured from the
Presbyterian church at t arwell, where
she wa« buried by the side of her
mother in the cemetery at that place.
Mrs. Jeffrey, whose maiden name was
Mary Gordon, was born iir Faruiana
county, Ireland, Jan. Sth, 1847. She
immigrited to this country and to Ne
braska m October,1879. She was married
to Wm. Jeffrey in February, 1880. She
leaves a sorrowing husband, but has no
children, to survive her She has one
sister. Mrs. John Irvin, living near
Farwell; a si-ter in Ireland, whose
name we did not learn, and a brother
living in Sacramento,Calif., Mr. John
Gordon. We have not been informed
of the circnmstances of her fatal illness
and subsequent death. The lady was
most highly esteemed by those who
knew her for her sterling qualities,
and the bereaved husband and rela
tives have the deepest symyathy of all
in this th. ir hour of sorrow. Mr. Jeff
rey desires us to express Ins heartfelt
thanks to the kind friends who adminis
tered consolation and performed those
acts of fri*imshii* and aid during the
illness and subsequent death of his be
loved companion.
A later account received gives the
further information that Mrs. Jeff rev's
death was caused by a complication of
dise s*s. culminating in dropsy. She
was married t<> Mr Jeffrey at Grand
Island, Feb.l^so, and lias since lived
on a farm two miles east of Ashton
She was a consistent member of the
Presbyterian church, and greatly es
teemed by her vvideclrcle of friends.
Costs To Open Wrong Letters.
The authi rities at Washington have
fixed the penalty of £200 tine on any
person taking out of the postofflce mail
other than their own. All postmasters
are liable to m ike mistakes and get the j
mail in the wrong boxes, and the law 1
says that people must examine their:
mail before leaving the office, and
should they rereive a piece not address
ed to them.it must be returned at once.
That it is the fault of the postmaster
makes no difference. This law includes
newspapers as well as first class mail.
There is a class of curious people every- j
where, and they are, as a rule, contem- i
tibly curious about letters and other*
mail matter which they chance to get
hold of. They will open all letters
coming into their possession. and often 1
when knowing full well they don't
belong to them They will, after read
ing the letters, write on the envelope,
“opened by mistake.’’ without signing
their name, drop it back in the post
office box at night or during the day
when not observed. This class of
curious individuals is warned to Le
careful in the future. If they open
mail hereafter which does not belong to
them, they must sign their name and
state nuy they opened the same
whether bv accident or design.—Gales

Perhaps it’s Worth Trying.
Death to cattle from eating corn
stalks tiny be prevented by giving one
pint of s>lt containing three table
spoonfuls of turpentine dissolved in
three pints of warm water and given
m a drenching hott'e. Even alter the
animal is down, and unable to walk, it
can be relieved in thirty minutes and in
the end permanently cured. After giv
ii g the drench, rub half a pint of tur-!
pentme on the animal just behind the
shoulders on both sides, and then along
the neck veins from the jaw to the
nrisket. Ihis will promptly relax the
nervous system. The salt will pene
tra»e the dry husks in the stomach,
while the turpentine entering the blood
will counteract the nerve trouble pro
duced hv husks.—Exchange.

This offer may not appear again. There is no
catch about it. If Mull’s Grape Tonic does not
positively cure Constipation you are out
nothing, as you may have the first bottle free.
If it cures, which it will, tell others, that is al i
we ask. No remedy has ever before been
known to cure Constipation permanently.
Mull's Grape Tonic is not a physic. It is un
like anything you have ever Vsed. It cures
Constipation. If it did not. this offer would
ruin us. The process is gradual but sure. You
know from your own experience that physics,
like Pills. Salts. Castor oil, Mineral waters,
injections, etc., make you worse.
Where can Mull's Grape Tonic be had?
Your druggist sells it. The $1.00 bottle con
tains nearly three times the 50c size, but if you
w ill write today to Mull's Grape Tonic Co . 3d
Ave.. Rook Island, III., and give druggist's
name, you will receive the first bottle free with
full instructions. This gives us a chance to
prove to you at our expense that it is a woader
ful remedy and places vou under no obligation
to invest a penny. Only tell your friends
about it. (No. 313.) marl6-05
