That Is where some people feel
weak all the time.
They are likely to be despondent
and It Is not unusual to find them
borrowing trouble as If they hadn't
enough already.
The fact Is their kidneys are weak,
either naturally or because of sickness,
exposure, worry or other influences.

That Julia Marlowo Is to be ranked
among the few artists to whom tho play
going portion of Omaha's citizens extends
ft cordial wclcomo was demonstrated by
tho magnificent audience that assembled nt
the Boyd's last night. Not since the up
pcaranco of Hlr Henry Irving last spring
has so representative nn assemblage of Its
best citizens gathered within Ita walls, and
tho cordiality with which tho star of tho
evening was greeted demonstrated tho
regard In which she Is held by tho patrons
of .the theater In this city. Lot us hope
that both she and her manager have read
tho lesson that tho ovation sho received
last night teaches and that lu tho futuro
sho will not Include this city nmong tho
one-night stands when Bho leaves tho east
ern metropolises and starts on a tour
through tho provinces.
As IJarbara Freltchle, the heroine of Mr.
Fitch's play, Miss Marlowe appeared to
ndvantage, although It does not offer bor
the opportunities that compel her to rs
crclso her talents to tho extent of which
sho 13 capable. Sho makes tho part all
that tho author Intended nnd possibly
more. Sho Is dainty and dollcalo lu all
that sho does, but thcro is not enough for
her to do. It Is beneath her and tho feel
ing that there Is a woeful wasto of talent
gclng on upon tho stage Is ouo that can
not bo wholly shaken off. Whether she
has progressed or retrograded In hor art
since last seen In tho city can only bo con
jectured. Tho demands mado upon her In
tno play furnish no crltorlou by which
to Judgo. Sho Is greater as an actress
than Mr. Fitch Is as a playwright and sho
needs tho work of a master to bring out
her talent to Its fullest extent. It is an
nounced that sho will glvo but a few moro
productions of tho piece. Let us hope so
and lot us further hope that should tho
plcco she now has lu hund and which sho
will produco for tho first time In St. Louis
this month prove ns Inadequate as tho

In which sho mado 'her llrst success and

Tho supporting company was ndequato

Mcllae, who essays tho rolo of Captain
Trumbull, tho noi thorn soldier to whom

CINCINNATI, O., Nov. 13. The experts
who have been working today with Receiver
Tucker on tho books of the (Icrmau Na
tional bnnk nt Nowport, Ky., plnco the
shortage of Frank M. Drown, the missing
assistant cashier and Individual book
keeper, nt flDl.GOO.
According to reports from those who
wcro with Drown when ho left last Tuesday
night ho had less than D00 with him.
Drown's salary was only $1,500 a year.
Cases aro now cited whero he spent moro
than that amount In ono day. His bond
was for $10,000, and It Is good as far as It
goes,
United States District Attorney Hill will
arrive from Louisville tomorrow, when It
Is ald criminal proceedings will bo begun.
Tho federal detectives have certain persons
under Rtirvelllnnce and thcro aro reports to
night about arrestB that will follow on tiro
arrival of District Attorney Hill.
During tho run on the (Jerman Nutloual
bauk lust Saturday $200,000 was secured in
Cincinnati to bridge over the trouble. This
wna returned today and Receiver Tucker
had other moneys and papers also trans
ferred to Cincinnati. Drown's system re
quired a wonderful memory. Tho experts
say ho carried In his head tho figures that
enabled him to call off correctly u lot of
false entries In u wuy to throw off the
track tho clerks who were doing the
"chocklug" with him.
A depositor would put In $3,100, Drown
would iirtcr the proper amount of tho do
posit lu ono took and enter It as, $100 In
another. Ho would take the dlffcrcuoc,
$3,000, himself. Then, when It camo to
checking up, ho would hnndlo ono of tho
books.
Another clerk would check and Drown
would call off. Instead of calling off $100.
which appeared ns the amount of the do
posit on tho book which ho was handling,
ho would call It as $3,100, thus making It
correspond with tho book In tho hands of
the other clerk.
Ho also, It Is nllcged, worked It In an
other way. A, depositor would draw out
$100. Drown would ranko tho proper entry
In ono book und enter $3,100 In another.
When tho doposltor had his nccount
checked up tho figures wcro taken from the
book In which tho correct entry had been
made. When tho bank oillclals looked to
sco what amount was duo tho depositor
they wero given their Information from the
books which showed that $3,100 had been
withdrawn. Drown hod memorized nil tho
Individual accounts and tho experts find no
private marks of any kind on tho hooks.
Tho general ledger was kept correct and
balanced with tho cash, whllo tho Indi
vidual ledger. It Is alleged, was llxcd to
suit Drown's purposes, tho former being
tho one that tho bank officials examined.
Uiiuk Cloned by Comptroller' Order.
"This bnnk Is closed by order of tho
comptroller of tho currency.
(Signed) O. P. TUCKKll,
"National Dank Kxamlner."
Tho foregoing notice appeared on the
doors of the stately building of tho German
National bank of Nowport, Ky., prior to tho
time for opening today. Tho salient facts
of the cause of tho notice had been known
slnco Suuday morning and thereforo thero
wero nono of tho usual scones accompany
ing a run on tho bnnk by depositors. The
alleged defalcation of Assistant Cashier
Frank M. Drown to tho amount of about
$200,000 was a fact so overwhelming that no
doposltor was foolish enough to suppose
that any good could bo accomplished by
attempting to get money from tho bi'nk
today.
National Dank Kxamlner O. P. Tucker,
who Is In charge, In un Interview today
said that tho alleged defalcation was not
discovered by him until 10 o'clock on Sat
urday night, that both ho and tho bank's
own experts had been unable to Hud any
thing wrong until' that time. Tho discov
ery was made In a comparison of Brown's
Individual ledger with tho cashier's dally
checking up. Here, ho said, It was found
that Drown had been forging balances from
day to day until tho total of 5102,000 had
been withdrawn from tho funds of tho bank.
Tho examiner further said that tho matter
of criminal proceedings had becu referred
to United States District Attorney Hill
of Louisville, who would causo u warrant
for Drown's arrest to ho Issued. Tho ex
aminer himself had not taken this step
becauso he knew that Drown was absent.
Tho only bond which tho bank holds Is
that of Paris C. Drown, tho father of tho
abslstant cashier, who Is a well known river
man and president of the Consolidated
Boat Storo company. This bond Is an open
one, conditioned to cover any shortage by
tho sou. It Is said that though Paris C.
Brown has voluntarily offered his cntlro
property to meet the obligation, not moro
than $20,000 can be realized from this
sonrco. Tho examiner stated that ho prob
ably would bo named as temporary re
ceiver, but tho appointment of a, permanent
rocotver wns In the hanls of tho comp
troller of the currency. Tho btock, ho says,
la of no value, as a double liability assess
ment must be made. Depositors may re
ceive a dividend as soon as tho comptroller
of tho currency will authorize It, but this
may be weeks and even months. The de
positors will bo notified of tho amounts of
tholr credits and they will bo required to
make proof of their claims. Bank Kxam
lner Tucker puld ho would employ a full
torco of clerks to urrango tho business of
tho bank and mako every effort to collect
all tho debts duo tho bauk nnd lu every way
discover the bank's exact condition and
until that ttmo ho could not make n posi
tive statement as to tho extent of the lia
bilities, which appeared to be $192,000. Tho
bank was tho depository of nine building
associations aud of tho adjoining corpora
tions of Dcllevuo, Dayton and other towns,
as well an of about 1,500 Individuals and
firms,
Thero are no Indications of nn accom
plice or of anyono knowing about Drown's

WASHINGTON, Nov. IS. Comptroller of
tho Currency Dawes has appointed Oliver
P. Tucker, national bank examiner, tempo
rary rccolver of tho German National hank
of Newport, Ky. Mr. Tucker telegraphed
the comptroller that he had taken charge
owing to the discovery of a defalcation
amounting to about $133,000 and thereupon
tho comptroller appointed him temporary
receiver. Tho officials hero consider It
astonishing that n defalcation amounting
to more than the resorve of tho bank could
havo remained undiscovered for nny leugth
of time, but they attempt to offer no cs
planatlon, as Mr, Tucker has not yet
furnished nny details. The last examination

A young man clerk In a large storo In
Kansas City had a curious cxperlenco with
food, as related to his health. Ho says:
"About ten months ago a dizziness came
upon me each morning, kept growing worse
and a headacho would Invariably como on
In tho afternoon, and after meals I would
have vomiting Bpells which would leavo mo
very weak; nlso thero was a burning sensa
tion lu tho locality of my heart and many
nights I havo not slept a wink. ' '
"A physlelun whom I consulted told mo
to glvo up my position at once and go to
somo watering place for my health, for It
I did not It would only bo a question of a
short tlino until death would claim mo. I
did not feel able to glvo up my position,
but my condition kept gettlug worso and
finally my skin turned to n sort of greenish
color, nppotlte left and I was thoroughly
discouraged.
"About this time our grocer, by mlstnko,
sent up n package of Grapo-Nuts Inetcnd of
some othor goods ordered. 1 thought I
would try It, having no Idea that It would
In uny way benefit my health, but the first
day after using tho food I noticed a decided
change In my condition. My sovore head
acho did not appear as usual and I began
to havo an appetite.
"I thought ot llrst It wan the effect of a
medicine I was taking, hut one of the
family suggested that It might bo Grapo
Nuts, for Orapo-Nuts had tho reputation
of bolng a great nerve builder. In order
to bo Btiro I quit taking nny medlclno what
ever, but continued the use of Grape-Nuts.
"On the eighth day tho dizziness entirely
disappeared and tho headaches were very
slight. I felt almost like a new man aud
In threo weeks after I began using the
food was entirely well and am now In
belter health thap I havo ever been. My
own cose proves the truth of tho elnlm
that Grape-Nuts food Is a great vltallzcr
and bfnln food." Wm. J. Woods, 1717

(Copyright, 1!K by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, Nov. 17. (Now York World
Cablegram Special Telegram.) London
scclcty shrugged Its shoulders today on
hearing that tho Uuko of Manchester had
secretly married Miss Helena Zlmmer
ir.nn, a Cincinnati heiress. Thero was a
cynical sigh of pity for the bride, accom
panied with tho remark: "Perhaps It may
turn out bettor than people think. The
unexpected always happens, "
Tho dowager duchess of Manchester em
phatically denied that hor son had taken
a, wlfo when she first heard of It this
morning. Sho said tho report must havo
been set afloat by a certain person who
devotedly hoped tho marriage would oc
cur nnd she manifested extreme dlsplcni
uro at the tnero thought of her son mak
ing a duchesH of Miss Zimmerman. Then
to satisfy herself sho went to Marylobono
pnrlsh church, where, to hor amazement
nnd chagrin, sho saw tho record of tho
marriage, a copy of which Is cabled to
the World.
Ono of tho witnesses ot tho marriage,
Krncst Cavan Lambort, a nephew of the
carl of Cavau, was bccii today by tho corre
spondent nt his chambers, Princess man
sions, Pall Mall, and said: "Monday n
week Manchester came to mo and said:
'I urn going to marry Helena Zimmerman
ou Wednesday. Here Is the llccnso and
I want you to act ns best man. It will bo
quite private.'
"I Bald: 'Certainly' and went to see
Canon Darker, who conducted tho cere
mony. Separated Immediately.
"Tho wholo thing went through very
quickly nnd quietly. After the ceremony wo
drovo to Prince's restaurant and had
lunch four of us only. I left tho duko
and duchess thero with Miss Evans nnd
tho 'arrangement was that tho duchess was
to go to Paris that afternoon, while tho
duke, having to attend to some business
here, intended leaving for Irelnnd at tho
end of tho week. Whether that plan was
carried out or not I can't say, as I havo
not seen oither of them slnco I left them
at Prince's restaurant."
"This separation Immediately after thu
ceremony was rather strange," I ven
tured. "Well,"' responded Lambort, "It seems
that they docldd to separata until they
have a public marriage In America, which
the duchess considers essential."
"Can they ho married again In America?"
"Well, I'm not a lawyer, but they havo
been advised that they can get married
to each other any number of times; there's
no law against it."
"Then tho duchess Is not with the duko
nt Tandrageci"
"As far as I know sho In In Pnrln aud tho
telegram from Manchester which you havo
shown mo implies that sho Is not there, 1
think."
"How long was the engagement?"
"Thcro was talk about it before, but "the
engagement was only urranged week be
fore Inst lu Dublin. T wns asked to bo
best man becauso I Introduced Mauchciitcr
to Miss Zimmerman two years ago at
Dlnnrd."
"Is not her fn'ther opposed to tho wed
ding:" .' .
"Well, I don't think ho Is really opposed
to It," Lambart answered, "but ho has been
disgusted by so many contradictory re
ports. That's my vlow. HoweveV, It's a
good thing and will como out all right."
.Ml IS flic IS van it In ItespniiHlule.
Lambart is n typical young man about
town, smart, clean shaven and perfectly
groomed. Ha spoke of tho affair lu n most
off-hand manner, but at tho samo time
clearly Implying that tho match was none
of his making. Tho prima mover In tho
affair was MIhb Efflo Uvnns, the bride's
aunt on her mother's sldo, and well known
as a newspaper writer lu Paris.
"I callod at the Hans Crescent hotel to
sco Miss Kvaus, but wun Informed that she
had loft Sunday without tolling whero sho
was going. Canon Barker, who performed
tho ceremony. Is chaplain In ordinary to
the queen and nn eminent divine of thu
English church. He Enid; "There wns
nothing In particular about tho wedding
to distinguish it from any other, I had
a visit from K Cavan Lambart, a young
gentleman whom I did not know, on Tues
day, who said, 'I como from tho arch
bishop of Canterbury.'
"Why, what lu tho matter with the arch
bishop?" I asked.
'"Nothing Is tho matter with hlm,'
laughingly replied tho visitor, 'only he
wants you to marry tho duke of Manches
ter tomorrow and I thought you would
like to know.'
" 'O, cortnlnly,' I said, 'and who Is tho
bride'
" 'She Is a great American heiress, Miss
Zimmerman, and has $10,000 or $20,000 a
year. Her father Is one of the richest men
In Amerlcn.'
"I asked, 'Arc her friends to bo present?
Do they know about the wedding?'
Her Parent Not Told,
"No they don't, but she Is of full age and
every legal formality has been complied
with."
"I think her parents should he made
aware of tholr daughter's Intention."
"Well, sho and tho duke have decided
and It would do no good. There hos been
opposition already."
So 1 could do no more."
"They cmno In by tho back way tA tho
church Wednesday. Everything, In fact
was dono apparently to preserve secrecy and
a friend of theirs stood near tho door dur
ing tho ceremony. Whether they feared uc
tlvo hostility at tho last moment I can't
say. Tho bride Is a charming blonde, very
quiet and ladylike. Sho responded during
tho service In low tonos. I do not care
about performing such marriages, but I
bavo no option when, ns In this case, tuo
parties are of ago and never have been
divorced. I think Miss Zimmerman should
mako a very charming duchess."
I next visited tho register of Marycbono
parish, who recorded tho marriage.
"It was tho quietest wedding Imagina
ble," sold tho register In answer to tho
correspondent's question, "Accordlug to
law wo should get twenty-four hours' no
Hco of n marriage by license, us this was,
but I knew nothing of it until Wednesday
morning, when I heard that tho duko of
Manchester was to he married at 1 o'clock
nnd that Canon Barker, our rector, was
coming especially from the country to
perform tho ceremony, Wo did not hold
tho duko to tho usuaj notlco and be ar
rived nt 12;43 with n frleud. Tho bride,
with her woman friend, arrived punctu
rlly. Tho bride looked greatly depressed
and anxious, Sho cried during the cere
mony, her woman friend cheering her up.
But the wholo party seemed 'anything hut
gay.
.Mont Melunulinly WeddliiK.
"I roglster 500 marriages annually, so I
don't tako particular Intorest in the parties,
but I never lu nil my exporlcnco saw u
more melancholy wedding. The duko looked
worried, he did not evon pretend to be
cheerful. It was a marriage by ordinary
license, such as any parishioner ran get at
Doctors' Commons for 2 23 6d ($10,02),
although ihe secrecy of the proceedings
shows that thero was something to conceal
Canon Bnrker could not refuso to officiate,
except under penally of iloO ($250). Tho
duko got tho license hj-. sweating to an
affidavit that tho ceremony should take I
place immediately nnd, even If tho bride's
father hnd presented himself aiid objected,
thnt could not have stopped the wedding.
"Tho wholo thing was hurried throuth
ns quickly as possible and the bride and
brldegrom left lu the carrligc which the
bride and her friend had como there In.
There wns no congratulations that I saw.
They wcro glad to get it over as quickly
as posslblcl"
