Balke by Action f Absentees, Talk of Impeach ment an4 Other Proeeedlnes Ae-nlnst OVendere, President Zlmman. Temporary President Nicholson and Councilman O'Brien failed to attend the regular council meeting last night and thus prevented a quorum and the transaction of any business. Council man Hnye was escused last week and left on a shooting trip. Zlmman, Nicholson and O'Brien had obtained no leave. Under the new charter it takes six members to ac complish a quorum. As Schroeder. Dytoall. Huntington. Back and Evans constituted only Ave they were forced to either order a call of the house or adjourn the meeting over until today. They did the latter and set the hour at 10 o'clock. Majority members say the reason the three rouncllmen did not attend was the desire to prevent the passage of the $2t gas street lighting contract ordinance Until after cold weather makes It necessary for Mayor Moorea to seek a more kindly cli mate. It was given out that the majority Intended topass the ordinance last night and that the concurrent resolution Intro duced at the last meeting ordering the publication of the ordinance for two weeka before passage, on the theory that It Is a modification of the gas franchise, was merely a blind. Coaaell Aecnaea Xlmmnn. Attorney W. J. Connell, who was present to see that the gas ordinance went through all right and that the majority members did not lack proper legal advice, said: "I give It as my deliberate opinion that President Zlmman has laid himself open to removal from the presidency of the council by not coming to this meeting or being excused. Of course the three absent members are guilty of non-attendance with out an. excuse and will each have to pay a fine of $10, but this Is a minor matter. I think Zlmman can be removed for this and other delinquencies In office, if the five councilman desire I shall start' a suit for this purpose and serve without costs." Condition ot City Fnnde.

Mr. Walker Whiteside and his company In a double bill, "Jewels of Fire and "David Oarrlck's Love," the former a tragedy In one art, the latter a comedy In three acts. Cast for "Jewels of Fire:" Carego Mr. Whiteside Banker, s jeweler Mr. Sutherland Clarence Bradford, an artist Mr. Gardner The landlord Mr. Wender Janet... ..Mis Pollard Place Ten of a lodslns house. Birming ham. England. Tim V-Present, "Jewels of Fire" Is a two-volume novel compressed Into a single powerful act, a tragedy of life set forth with such com pelling force that the dullest comprehen sion mast appreciate It, while to the mind attuned to sympathy with the situation It ia so real that Its tragedy Is swallowed up In truth, and Its victim become the glorified victor In the dlvinest of dramas- Ufa of truth and honor. Neglected and cheated In this life, he triumphs In the purity of his art and the sublimity of his devotion to the woman he loved.. Carego Is a violinist; his wife hss been dead two years, and In mourning her he has allowed himself to sink to the lowest depth of poverty. He Is on the point of being turned from Ms squalid lodging on New Tear's eve, when he is discovered by an artist friend who haa been turned from his lodging. The misfortune of this friend brings new life to the starving, hatf-frosen musician, and he tells him that all will yet be welt. The world fails to recognise genius, but he will compel at least enough for them to live on. He has a trinket, a memento of his dead wife, which he will pledge with a Jeweler for a few shillings, on which they may survive until work Is obtained. This Is a necklace of paste dia monds he once surprised his wife wear ing, and over which they had quarreled. because he waa too poor to buy real stones and too proud to have her deck herself with tawdry Imitations. She died soon after the quarrel, and he had preserved the necklace aa his dearest possession, next to the memory of the woman he loved and who loved him. The Jeweler comes, and the necklace is produced, the musician asking for a single pound on the trinket as a pledge. The jeweler offers fifty, an hundred pounds, or more, and when asked not to jest, for the business Is serious, he points out his private mark on the setting, and tells the startled husband that the stones are real, and that he had sold them two years before to a young woman for 408. They had been purchased by a young nobleman, who paid the bill, clasped them on the woman's neck and kissed her. The Jeweler congratulates the musician as being a lucky dog for being able to fiddle such Jewels out of so beautiful a lady. On the morrow the musician tells htm he will see him and settle the amount to be advanced. The artist friend returns, and In his agony of grief the musician half tells the story; then he stops, and demands, a pledge of secrecy. A letter from London, offering a fine engagement comes, and the artist rushes out to answer it; tha sorrow of the stricken man overcomes him, he tears the photograph ot the dead woman to fragments In his Insanity of anger, and then picks up the bits, arranges them on the table and sits down. "I will play to you again, sweetheart," he says, and a weird, sorrowful strain of music floats up from his violin; slowly,' more slowly, and softer the strain, till It dies away. The bow drops from his hand, the violin falls to tha table, and the musician sits there, dead and the bells ring; out the old year, and the"merry jingle lof . the slelghbells mingle with the Joyous, orles of "Happy New Tear." Simple, buf most pathetic, and telling a story of the lives tha. ere hidden, the griefs that are never-krtewn, the tragedies that are never played. Mr. Whlteide en acts the role with a power tnat Is tremend ously effective , His personal temperament puts him Into harmonious sympathy with the character, and he delineates It with the utmost of fidelity, filling out each little de tail with a truth that makes the whole a triumph. His effort last night won for him that most welcome of tributes, round after round of spontaneous apptauae, and he was compelled to bow . his appreciation again and again before the curtain. Mr. Whltslde is the author of "Jewels of Fire." "David Garrlck's Love" was well played after the curtain was down on the one-act tragedy. The comedy was finely done and greatly enjoyed. This double bill will be presented at a matinee this afternoon. "We Are King" wilt be given tonight, closing the .engagement. The Hand of Man" at the Krng. Another of the thrillers, with the latest of names, began a short engagement at the Krug last night. This tells a story In a way Just a little different from that ordi narily adopted and Introduces some effec tive bits of realism In the scenic production. It Is very well staged and the company hav ing It In charge Is quite eapable of giving It life. The opening performance last night waa witnessed by a fair audience, which was quite appreciative. "The Hand of Man" will be presented at a matinee this afternoon and again this evening. "Sky Farm" opens Its engagement at the Krug on Thursday night. Many Children ReseneA.

C. WORDS OF PRAISE WELL A.ERITfcD BY A WELL KNOWN ARTICLK. i Bo tnneh haa been written by the I standard medicial authorities, of all the 'several schools of practice, In prsise of the native, or American, medicinal plants which enter into the composi tion of Dr. Tierce's Uoldrn Medical Dis covery, that in attempting to quote from the various works on Materia Medica one hardly knows where to commence, since tney are o volumin ous that only the briefest and most Im perfect reference can be presented in a short article like this. Briefly then let cs tay that the "Golden Medical Discovery was named from the sturdy little plant Golden Seal, the root of which enters largely into its composition. Resides this most valuable ingredient, it con tains glyceric extracts of Stone root, Queen s root, Black Cherrybark, Blood root and Mandrake root. Finley Ellingwood, M. D., an emin ent practitioner of Chicago and Profes sor of Materia Mtdica in the Bennett Medical College 6f that city, in his ' recently published work on Therapeu tics, says of Golden Seal root: "It is the most natural of stimulants to the normal functions of digestion. Its in fluence upon the mucous surfaces ren ders it most important in catarrhal gastritis (inflammation of stomach) and gastrie (stomach) ulceration. " Many other authorities as well as Dr. Ellingwood extol the Hydrastis (Golden Beat), as a remedy for catarrhal dis eases of the nasal passages, stomach. bronchia, gall ducts, kidneys, intestines and bladder. Amonp these, we may mention Prof. John Kirig, M. I)., author of ths American Dispensatory; Prof. J. M. Scudder, M. D., in his " Specific Medication"; Dr. Hale of the Hahne mann Med. College ot Chicago: Grover Coe, M. D., of htm York, in bis "Or ganic Medicines." Dr. Bartholow of Jef ferson Med. College and scores of other leading medical writers and teachers. All the foregoing eminent authorities extol the curative virtues of Golden Seal in cases of stomach, liver and in testinal weakness, torpor and ulceration of bowels.. Dr. Ellingwood recommends it most highly, " In those cases of atonic dyspepsia when the entire apparatus, including the liver, is stagnant and inoperative." He also extols it roost highly in the many weaknesses and de rangement peculiar to women and lays, " It is a most important remedy in many disorders of the womb." Golden Seal root (Hydrastis), is an important ingredient of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre scription for weak, nervous, "rundown" .women. But to return to ths "Golden Medical Discovery " it may be said that its cur- ' ative properties are not wholly depend ent upon Golden Seal, valuable fcs it is, as other equally potant ingredients add greatly to its value and in fact are not less important than the Hydrastis, or Golden Seal. In all bronchia.!, throat, lung and kindred ailments, Stone root, Black Cherrybark, Queen's root and Blood root, each clavs as important a part in effecting the phenoroinal cures of "Golden Medical Discovery" as does Golden Seal. All these ingredients have the endorsement of prominent practitioners of all schools ot medicine for the core of d'seasesof the bronchia, throat and lungs.
