Detroit, October 17.—Secretary Shaw was given a great ovation at Light Guard armory where he addressed an audience of fully 2600 people. He spoke in part as follows: "The question of markets Is one of paramount importance. We export an nually In round numbers $1,500,000,000, bin of this amount more than $1,000,000,000 goes to Europe. The population of Eu rope is in round numbers $3,000,000,000. How long can we expect less than one fourth of the globe to consume 70 per cent of our surplus? We must not only hold the markets we have, but we must seek out new ones. •'Our foreign commercp In forty years has increased 400 per cent, but the aggre gate tonnage of foreign commerce carried to and from the ports of this country In American bottoms has fallen off two thirds. •'Instead of this American monopoly resulting In advanced rates, It has given us the cheapest transportation In the world. The time has come when we must construct not trans-continentay lines, but trans-oceanic lines. We have no regular steamship communication with any of the countries lying south of the Carrl bean sea. We have a few ships plying between our Atlantic coast and Europe, a few between our southern ports and the South American countries washed by the gulf and the Carribean sea, a small line that regularly crosses the Pa cific, in the aggregate less than a score of vessels. England, France, Germany, Norway, Sweden and Holland, with sub sidized vessels, are making regular trips to the South American countries and they naturally get the trade. "A ship subsidy bill has passed the sen ate. I am not speaking in its favor, but it is due those who have labored in its Interest to say that the drain upon the treasury would be infinitely small. It costs our people $200,000 a year to carry their transoceanic freight and under the bill as it passed the senate ngt to ex ceed $1,200,000 can in any wise be paid out until more ships are built, and whenever a ship Is constructed, 95 per cent of its cost goes to labor. So without discussing the merits of the bill now pending, want to urge the importance of a bill con structed upon very different lines, one that shall insure regular steamship com munication to South American countries, South African countries and the islands adjacent. "It Is idle to suppose that steamship lines will be established to those ports without government aid. There is little freight now to carry, and no Inducement, and a steamship line would perish before sufficient trade could be built up to make it profitable. It will take years to make steamship lines to those ports far to the southward profitable, and in my opinion any ship subsidy bill that will meet the approval of both houses of congress will contain special provisions for these new lines, and at rates far in excess of what is necessary to Induce competition with European lines in transatlantic commerce. The marvel to me is that the cotton pro ducing states are not a unit in favor of every means that shall enlarge the mar kets for their surplus. To my own mind, there is no public question of so great Importance as foreign markets for our manufactured products,” Chaffee Takes Command. Washington. October 18.—An order was recently issued by General Chaf fee, in command of the Philippines, assuming military jurisdiction of the island of Corregidor. The law pro hibits the importation of liquors in the islands except for hospital pur poses, and all persons engaged in the liquor traffic are ordered to cease. Fight With Whisky Men. Memphis, Tenn., October 18.—A spe cial to the Commercial-Appeal from Lake Village, Ark., says that in a fight between officers and whisky boat men this afternoon Sheriff Strong and deputies William Wallace and Parker Brawner were seriously shot j and a posse of armed men have gone to the scene of the trouble and a con- j flict is probable. I VARSITY COLORS DRAGGED IN THE DUST B Y WEARERS OF THE ORANGE AND BL UE AUBURN OUTCLASSES HEU HEAVIER OPPONENTS. Men From Tuscaloosa Fail to Make Any Impression on the Tiger Lineand Lose by Score of 23 to 0. Allison Makes Star Piay of the Game by Seventy-five Yard Run and Touch Down on a Buck Through Center. BY BOZEMAN C. BULGER. WITH the shrill blast of the ref eree’s whistle a doughty Auburn leg sent the pigskin whirling into Alabama territory, and for two hours it hovered around the goal of the crimson and white with the university men hope lessly at the mercy of the tiger-striped lads from the village of the plains. Score: Auburn 23, University 0. Again and again the wearers of the Ala bama colors made mad plunges at the orange and blue line, only to be thrown back and forced to surrender the ball or kick it into Auburn’s end of the field. Near unto 800 admirers of the red-striped giants for awhile sat stupefied, and with painful expressions listened to the exul tant yells from their rival rooters. As the Auburn men began a series of plunges through the line of the beloved ’varsity, the dismay deepened, and as it gradually dawned upon them that Alabama's task was hopeless, they drifted into a state of resigned silence, and the final score of 23 to 0 was not unexpected. University Had No Chance. From the moment the first toe struck the pigskin it was evident that Tusca loosa had no chance, and the much vaunted predictions that for the first time in aeveu ypars typ crimson and white would vanquish the lads from Auburn were cast to the forewinds. The univer sity eleven showed a woeful lack of team work, and not for a single moment did they show any effort at ingenuity. From the start they played straight, old style football, and depended entirely on main strength and awkwardness to make an in road into the stone-wall formation of their lighter but wiry opponents. They were painfully slow in getting the ball into play, and Auburn had every oppor tunity to prepare for any offensive action. Further to the disadvantage of defenders of the university's honor the backs were slow to take the ball from the quarter, and frequent fumbles resulted. A little hard work would straighten out the var sity’s miscomings, and with the strong material they have at hand a formidable team could be put on the field. Auburn played clean, snappy nail, and much credit is due young Zac Smith for his head work In the various formations when long gains were needed. The line work of the orange and blue was excel lent and their offensive plays against the line by tandem bucks was the best seen in Birmingham for several years. The in terference was almost beyond criticism, and If the Auburn lads can continue to protect the ball with such precision in the future the goals of many southern teams will be in danger. Auburn s Only Fault. The only fault the experts and alumni of the “Tigers” could find with their play was the slowness in getting the ball into play, though this was not noticeable to the ordinary observer, as Alabama’s work afforded no comparison. Smith will make the best quarter back Auburn has ever turned out if he will be a trifle quicker in calling signals. He handles the ball in a masterly style, free from fumbles, and his interference is of the highest order. It has always been Au burn’s custom to begin the signal before the players arise from the scrimmage, and by the time the men are m place the ball is gone. This method has run sev eral teams off their feet, and the old Au burn players say young 5m!TTl will see its advantages before many moons and lea. W eat Poin. then made good gains and gradually ad vanced to the goal line until Tomey was forced over for a touch down and kicked an easy goal. No more scores were made in the first half. Spectacular Run. In fhe second half after a spectacular run of forty-five yards from the center of the field by Kernan to West Point s five yard line. Jones was forced over for a touch down and Barnard kicked a difficult goal. In the next formation West Point suc ceeded in getting the ball dangerously near Harvard’s goal, but the latter finally recovered it and punted back to the center of the field. After a series of scrimmages Harvard, who was pre vented from making telling gains, lost the ball on downs. Then Harvard made a touch back and from a punt Hackett made a long run. At this point Graves tried a goal from (the field but the ball was blocked by Har vard. The Cambridge boys then got the ball to within two feet of West Point's goal. Here Harvard finally lost the ball on downs. Graves then attempted to punt from behind the goal posts, but Harvard blocked the kick and the ball bounded back into the crowd. Both teams made an exciting scramble for It, tram pling under their feet several spectators, but the coveted pigskin fell into the hands of West Point, who carried it back into the field. Here a lengthy dis cussion arose as to the nature of the play, and the officials finally decided that it was a safety and accordingly added 2 points to Harvard’s score. Time was called with the ball on West Point’s 15 yard line. Score: Harvard 14, West Point 6. Time of halves, 20 minutes. The Line-Up. West Point Left end.

Yale wins nara-t-ougnt uame. New Haven, Conn., October 8.—Yale de feated the Pennsylvania State college eleven today at football by a score of 11 to 0. The game was the hardest that Yale has been called upon to play so far this season and afforded Invaluable practice. The play was marred by the fact that the ground was muddy and the ball wet and slippery. Yales goal was not seriously In danger at any time, although two long runs by Smith, fullback, gave Pennsylvania cour age to hope to score, but neither time did he come near enough to the Yale goal to give the visitors a chance for a field goal. The first touchdown was made early In the first half by Farmer. Ward kicked the goal. It was not until late In the second half that Yale could again score. Ward failed of goal after making the touchdown. Columbia, 35; Hamilton, 0. New York. October .18.—Columbia de feated the Hamilton college football team here today by a score of 85 to 0. The game was noteworthy for several spec tacular plays of which were mads by Harold Weeks. Weeks did not play the first half In anticipation of the coming game with Princeton. In ftie second half he caught the ball on the kick off at Columbia's two yard line and ran 108 yards down the field for a touchdown, the longest run ever made on the polo grounds. Soon after he was given the ball and ran 80 yards for another touch down. Time of halves, 85 and 30 minutes. w LAST WEEK OF STRIKE OVER Milcliell Defends Pierpont Mor gan in a Brief Statement TRIED TO SETTEE STRIKE Almost All Miners’ Delegates Will Vote to Accept Committee of Ar bitration If They Are All Taken Back to Work. tVIlkesbarre, Pa., Ootiber IP.—What 1* probably the last full week of the anthra 1 cite coal strike closed today without any thing developing to change the peaceful trend of events. All the "locals” have met and selected their representatives to the WUkesbarre gathering Monday morn ing There seems to be little doubt but that the convention will accept the offer of arbitration. Reports nave been re ceived here, coming principally from tha region around Scranton, that there will be considerable opposition to the accept ance of the plan, but these reports arc not taken seriously at President Mitch ell’s headquarters. There will be opposi tion in the convention, hut It Is to disap pear after Mr. Mitchell explains the proposition to the delegates. Probabl" the most difficult question which will come before the convention is the one relative to strikers securing their old places. The companies are on record as saying they will take care of all of the employes who have stood by them during the strike. Many of the miners want the convention to withhold accep tance of the arbitration plan until the union Is assured that the strikers will be re-employed In the*r former places. This will likely cause a long debate, but tho officials of the union say the matter will be fixed up satisfactory to all concerned. President Mitchell was asked tonight what he knew of the report cable* to ths Manchester Guardian from New York that J. P. Morgan was forced to inter vene In the coal strike and In reply he said: Morgan i riea to Settle. "To my personal knowledge Air. Mor gan has been trying to settle the coal strike ever since he came back from Europe two moAths ago. If others had been as fair and reasonable as Mr. Mor gan was. the strike would have been set tled a long time ago. I know nothing about Mr. Morgan's financial Interests compelling him to seek a settlement of the strike, but I am Informed that he has keenly felt his responsibility to the public In connection with the fuel famine and has done his best to bring about the end. Both Mr. Morgan and Mr. Cas satt of the Pennsylvania railroad were working for a settlement when Presi dent Roosevelt made his last and suc cessful move. Mr. Morgan could not very well be forced to do something which he had been trying to achieve for sev eral weeks. I make this statement In Justice to Mr. Morgan. I am creditably Informed that he Is friendly to organised labor." The shaft of the Mount Lookout col liery of the Temple Coal and Iron com pany at Wyoming was wrecked today by one of the small locomotives used for hauling cars containing culm. The engineer left the locomotive for a moment and It suddenly started and rail full speed 300 yards to the shaft and plunged down, lodging 320 feet below tbe surface at the red ash vein. Fortunately the boiler did not explode, but the big machine In Its fall tore out the lining of the shaft and did other damage that will cause a suspension for a week or more. It Is probable the homeward movement of the soldlerB will begin about the mid dle of next week. It Is costing the state more than $30,000 a day to keep the na tional guard In the field. Shenadoah Favorable. Shenandoah. October 18.—A majority of the local miners of Shenandoah and vi cinity have Instructed the delegates elected to the WUkesbarre convention to vote against calling the strike off unless assurance is given that every man who responded to the call to go on strike will be given his old position back. Shipped 120 Cara. Reading, Pa., October 18.—About 120 cars of hard coal were brought down the Philadelphia and Reading road tv day from the washerles and mines. It la expected that more will be sent out late tonight from different parts of the region.

Montgomery, October 18.—Came Lomax, United Confederate Veterans, has re relved from Qen. Ell Torrance, late com mander-in-chief of the grand army of the republic, a cordial letter In acknowl edgement of the resolutions passed by the camp expressing Its appreciation of General Torrance’s "good will” letter of September 14 In behalf or the Mountain Greek home for confederate veterans.

After Nashville Franchise. New Orleans, October 18.—Leading men of New Orleans and Nkshvllle have or ganized a stock company with a paid up capital of $10,000 and they will make an effort to secure the Nashville franchise of the Southuern league. Already an option upon a locaton for the new ball park has been secured and If the fran chise Is seoured grounds exactly the du plicate of the New Orleans field will be laid out Several of the leading members of the present Nashville baseball backers are interested In the new deal. They are not satisfied with the present manage ment. While no definite action has been taken by the league, the chances of granting a franchise to the new company and forfeiting the old franchise on the grounds of failure to comply with the rules and Instructions of the league, are regarded as extremely bright.

Washington, October 18.—(Special.)—It is reported that the coal companies ex pect the labor arbitration commission to deside that the coal miners are entitled j to an advance in wages, and they will j therefore advance the permanent cost of coal not less than BO cents per ton. It is understood that a permanent Increase in the price of coal will be considered im perative if the demands of the miners are granted. The increase is certain to be large enough to compensate the roads for the enormous losses they have in curred by reason of the strike. Taking the normal output of the anthracite mines at 50,000,000 tons per annum, an Increased profit of B0 cents per ton would amount to $17,000,000 should the miner be allowed i 15 cents per ton additional wages. ROOSEVELT NOT INTERESTED. Use of His Name In Mining Enterprise Was Not Authorized. Washington, October 18.—The fol-! lowing statement was made at the' White House today relative to the re port that President Roosevelt was in terested in some -Colorado mining claims: ‘‘With reference to the story pub lished today concerning mining claims in Colorado, the use of the President’s j name was wholly unauthorized and I steps have been taken to have its use discontinued."

Washington, October 18.—The com missioner of internal revenue has ruled the wholesale liquor dealers can not receive for sale packages of dis tilled spirits from a person who is neither a rectifier, distiller nor whole sale liquor dealer without violating section 3319 revised statutes. But the President, without sending the pack ages of spirits to them, make them his agents for their sale and on his doing so they can dispose of the spirits by means of a hill of sale delivered to the purchaser at their place of busi ness where they hold the requisite special tax stamp, and the person taking such bill of sale can receive the package of spirits at any other place from the owner of them and the latter not thereby become involved in special tax liability as a wholesale liquor dealer.

La Victoria, October 18.—A messenger has arrived here from the scene of the engagement near thlB place between the government troops and the revolution ists. bringing news that after seven days of terrible fighting 9000 rebels under Gen eral Mendoza had abandoned the field, having retired from their last positions, six miles from La Victoria, Friday night, retreating In the direction of Villa de Cura.

The victory of the government troops, which Is said to be due to the personal courage of President Castro, who twice, with a Mauser rifle in' his hand, charged at the head of his soldiers, is considered a serious setback for the cause of the revolutionists. A courier from Valencia who arrived here today reports that up to yesterday that town was not In the hands of the revolutionists.

Y., October 18.—The most destructive fire that has visited Albany In a number of years broke out shortly before 11 o'clock tonight in the Tower Brooks Co.’s Boston store, one of the largest dry goods stores In the heart of the business district. For a time the entire dry goods section was threatened, and only by most heroic work on the part of the firemen were the flames prac tically confined to the building in which they started. There were many thrill ing escapes from death and one fire man was killed and a number injured. Thomas Ward, a pipe man of Engine Company No. 1, slipped from the top of a ladder and fell thirty feet, break ing his neck. At the time the fire broke out a dance was in progress In a hall on the top floor of the burning bullcu.g. Escape to the street was cut off by the fast spread ing flames and twenty-five young men and women were lifted out of the front windows and helped over adjoining roofs. The shrieks of hysterical women created much excitement, but c^.ol needed fire men and spectators soon carried them to a place of safety. Several women were burned but none seriously hurt. It is Impossible to secure any estimate of the losses tonight. DISTRESS IN ST. VINCENT. Eruptions of Soufriere Have Badly Crippled Island's Resources. Kingstown, St, Vincent, October 18. —The eruption of Soufriere on Octo ber 15 and 16, the fourth terrific out burst since the catastrophe of May 7, has plunged the colony into deeper distress than before existed, crippling its agricultural resources by further devastating the arrow root fields and completely destroying wide areas of growing crops on lands which have been considered outside the volcanic zone. Even the Mesopotamia valley, an ideal garden of tropical vegetation, although twelve miles from the vol cano’s crater, is burned with sand. Travel on all the roads in the wind ward district has been rendered ex tremely difficult. Large numbers of refugees and other persons left Georgetown for Kingston, a distance of twenty miles, October 16, and many oi them fainted on the way from hun ger and thirst and the fatigue en gendered by trudging through the hot sand. The situation is desperate. Comparatively no damage was done on the lee coast by the outbreak. No lives were lost. This eruption was equal In duration and violence to that of the night of September 3. But owing to the bril liant moonlight the electrical dis charges were less terrifying. STREET CONDUCTOR KILLED. Decatur Man Round Dead With Bullet Hole In Breast. Decatur, October 18.—(Special.)—Rich ard Newman, a street car driver, was found dead here today with a bullet wound in his left chest near the region of the heart.

The embassy stall and their wives and Consul General Mason and Mrs. Mason were present Made a Good Guess. From Spare Moments. She was an amateur artist, and, like most of her kind, considered herself sev eral laps in advance of the average ama teur. She was eager, however, to know how her work would impress one of the masters who had managed to grasp tickle fame by the back of the neck. One day a real painter called at her home, and she Immediately conceived the idea of testing him. She would show him a speciman of tier handiwork, but would reveal nothing that might lead him to suspect her as being the creator thereof. So the fair amateur proceeded to guide the real painter toward er masterpiece. “Of what school would you call this painting?’* she asked, expectantly. “Of the boarding school,” promptly re plied the real painter.

It was then she began to use Peruna and had improved so much within a few months that on April 8, last, she rode j seven miles to Los Angeles, spent the forenoon on a shopping tour, and at noon tripped up a long flight of stairs to have j her photograph taken. Her letter reads as follows: “I think I owe my life to the use of Peruna. have tried innumerable doctors and medicines, but of no avail. The doc tors gave me up saying they could do nothing for me. as my death was only a matter of a short time. “Then I began the use of Peruna and am glad to say that instead of being con fined to my bed with the dread kidney complaint, I am up and about. “I am 84 years of age, yet I rode seven miles to Los Angeles, spent the forenoon shopping, and climbed h long flight of stairs to have my photo taken to send to the Peruna manufacturers as a sample j of what their valuable medicine has done for me. “I candidly believe I would have been I in my grave today but Tor tne use of j Peruna."—Susannah McHenry. Kidney Troubles in October. Look out for kidney trouble in October. The heat of summer is past. The activity of skin perspiration haB ceased. During the hot months a great portion of the blood poisons have been eliminated through the skin by sweating. In October the -cold days and nights put an end to this and throws the whole responsibility upon the kidneys. The kidneys are obliged to do an extra amount of wprk. This is very likely, to lead to kidney diseases. More cases of kidney disease originate i in October than all the other months in I the year. Catarrh of the kidneys is very I apt to set in when free perspiration of the skin is stopped. A short course of Peruna is very desirable to prevent this. At least those who have experienced any warning symptoms of kidney disease should begin Peruna without delay. Catarrh of Kidneys. Peruna reaches the seat of the diffi- i culty by, eliminating the catarrh from the kidneys. Even after all other rem- I edies have failed, Peruna brings prompt I relief. Catarrh of the kidneys in October has become so established in this climate that it is stupendous folly to neglect any precaution. There is no use to take reme dies that simply stimulate the kidneys. What is needed Is a remedy that operates to cleanse the kidneys cf all catarrhal taint. This Is what Peruna will do. Peruna is absolutely unique as a remedy for this class of diseases. Take No Substitute. Substitutions for PdrUria are without exception, frauds. Peruna \9 in a class all by itself. Nothing is just ns good. Noth ing can be substituted with any success whatever. Insist upon having Peruna. Beware of substitutes. Be sure that you are using Peruna. Never allow any one to persuade you that he has a remedy that will ’do the same thing that Peruna does. If you do not derive prompt and satis factory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case and he will be pleased to give you his valuable ad vise gratis. Address Dr. Hartman. President of The Hartman Sanitarium, Columbus, Ohio. A Two Country Postoffice. The most curious postoffice in America Is the one which stands, in Beebe Plain, a town half In Vermont and half in the province of Quebec, Canada. Tho old postoffice was built about seventy-five years ago exactly on the line between j the United States and Canada, so that j it stands in two countries and serves In the postal service two nations. The cellar of the building connects the two countries, and some years ago, when the postoffice was a general store, whisky was known to he sold in one country ano I delivered in another without having gone out from under the roof of the old struc ture. The combination postoffice is now be ing run by parent and child, the father being postmaster for Canadian QuelTCc and the daughter postmistress 'for Ver mont. Standing in front of this strange postoffice is a large post, which fnarlcs the boundary line, and it is. said that one time a man who wanted to get a roadway to his premises moved this post, and many thousands of dollars and no little time were spent to establish tfte exact line again. Nationalities In Hawaii. From the Honolulu Star. There is no place in the world where such various nationalities and such wide ly different race* can be found in so %inall an erea. It is true that on the maii^ana such races are to be found, but not all in one spot. Few people realize how many different nationalities are to be found in our schools and Vhat few schools are confined to one nationality. The statis tics of school children give us Ha kalians, part Hawaiians, American, British, Ger man, Portuguese, Scandinavian, Japan ese, Chinese, Porto Ricans and scatter ing, which are classed as "other for eigners." The tabulation of teachers gives Hawaiian, part Hawaiian, Ameri can, British, German. French, Belgian, Scandinavian, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese and others. The Japanese and Chinese teachers are not employed m the public schools of the territory, but are engaged in private schools. The main body of the teachers in the public schools are American, Hawaiian, part Hawaiian and British. The Newer Prison Idea. From the Des Moines Register and Lead er. Newgate, happily, is one of the few surviving prisons of the olden time, and now it, too, is to disappear. It Is a long and dreary way between these prisons of the olden time and those of today, in which punishment is based on the ideas of public safety and tbe cure of cer tain moral obliquities, for which it is held the individual is not wholly responSs ble. The old prisons were starting places for the guillotine end the gallows; the new are sought to be made a starting place for a better :ife. Had Another Flame. From the Philadelphia Times. A man who had lost his much-beloved wife consulted a stone-mason in regard to the erection of a tombstone with a suita ble epitaph. After having a number of lines suggested, he finally relected the following: "The light of my life had gone out.” A short time afterward the widow fell in love with a very charming girl to 3 whom he became engaged. He intended to leave town, returning on the day of tue wedding, and before he went off In structed the mason to alter the epitaph so that the feelings of his prospective wife would not be hurt. This the mason promised to do, and when the widower returened he visited the grave at once, the epitaph now appearing: “The light of my life has gone out, but I have found another match.” New Use for the Pulpit. From the London Tid Bits. There are queer nooks and corners In England yet. A country parson lately went to preach In an old remote parish one Sunday. The aged sexton, In taking him to the place, insinuatingly said: “I hope your riv’rence won't mind preachin’ from the chancel. Ye see, this is a quiet place, and I’ve got a duck sit tin’ on fourteen eggs In the pulpit.” Up Against It. From the Chicago News. Tired Tatters—Here’s a piece In dis paper wot's an Insult to be profesh. Weary Walker—Wot’s It say? Tired Tatters—It sez dat a feller ortn't ter eat nuttin' when he's tired. Weary Walker—Well, wot’s de matter wid dat Item? Tired Tatters—Wot’s de matter wld It! Say, do youse want er feller ter starve ter death? Queer. From the Philadelphia Press. "Of all the bodily ailments,” said the surbanlte, “I think ague is the most par adoxical.” "How paradoxical?” inquired Citlman. "It gives you the Bhake, and sticks right to you.” Mere Opinion. From the Chicago Record-Herald. The varnish is soon worn from the rail ing in front of the bar, but church pews seldom need repairing. A bad man gets vast credit for doing a good thing which nobody would have noticed if the doer had been decent. When a baby girl is born she at once begins to yell for clothes, and she never gels over the habit. When a man has difficulty in finding a chance to propose he can make up his mind that the girl doesn't want him. The business instinct frequently takes the form of an easy conscience. Fixing the Limit. From the Chicago News. "Would you like a half-size or a quar ter view?” asked the photographer. Better gimme one o' them quarter kind, I reckon,” replied the rural party from the uncut grass. "Fifty cents air tew much fer a picture." Another Keyboard to Be Learned. From theChlcago Tribune. "Oh!” despairingly exclaimed the eypa son on the piano, "I don’t believe I can ever learn to operate it. The keyboard's writer girl, who was taking her first lea bo different!” r Mulcted. From the Philadelphia Press. "He's an unfortunate man of letters.” “Why, I never heard he was an au thor." "Well, he was the author of several let ters that lost him a breach of promise suit." r I 111J_LL__-at YOU NEED A STOVE I have lots of them WHY WAIT?

AT,THE JEFFERSON. Monday Night and Tuesday Matinee —"The Wizard of the Nile.” Tuesday Night—"El Capltan.” Wednesday Matinee—“H Trovatore"! Wednesday Night—“Faust.” Thursday—Frank Daniels In “Miss Simplicity.” Friday Night and Saturday Matinee, —“The Taming of the Shrew.” Saturday Night—“Much Ado About i Nothing.” AT THE BIJOU. Polite vaudeville all the week—mat inees Tuesday, Thursday and Satur day. At the Bijou. The resources of Jake Wells seem bot toipjess, for he has In the last few weeks demonstrated that the secrets of vaude ville are like an open book to him. It was rather a difficult proposition tor a man ager to take up a new people and study out their fads and fancies, for what one city cares for another does not, but Mr. Weils adopted the plans and the policy that established him so firmly in other cities, and the result here is that the theatre-goers know that they will al ways get value for value when they ex- change their money for a seat at the Bijou. Since the opening of the theatre there has not been a really disappointing offer ing, It Is true that there have been bills better than others, but measuring all of j them up to one standard the people have not been disappointed. The conveniences of the house, the manner in which it is j conducted, the refinement of the pro- j grammes, and the general all round home like feeling that one becomes accustom- ed to in this new house has made it j popular with society folks as well as the i gallery god. The bflls are put together to suit the mass, and not a class, and i when there is an earnest and enthusiastic demonstration on the part of the people, evidenced by applause and attendance, there can be no question but that the theatre is popular with the people. The bill for this week has been care fully selected. It will contain a new run of acts all of which are to be found in the directory of headliners, and real rep resentatives of the most acceptable comedy and novelty numbers. There is no special feature. Each number will be looked upon as such, and each will be expected to “make good.” Ode of the acts on the new bill that will* probably be acceptable here, is that to be contributed by Falke and Semon, musical comedians. The duo is well kno^vn In the profession and Is a drawing card in the best houses. Both are clever entertainers In the comedy line, and both are gifted musicians. One of the com edians Is a manufacturer of catch words, and he will hand out a few choice selec tions during the week. Another strong comedy number will be the offering of Ward and Curran, eccentric comedian and gifted vocalist. Their sketch will be a satire on a police court scene, called “That Terrible Judge.” Ward Is one of the best character comedians In the pro fession and his partner is a sweet singer, possessing a tenor voice of rare beauty. The Rio brothers, who are considered to be the best acrobatic equilibrists in the profession will offer an act that is full of deep Interest. The trio acrobats have ncomnpltshed a wonderful series of tricks and their stage appearance makes a picture not soon forgotten. Tim Mc Mahen. the minstrel favorite and Edey the Chappelle, will present a comedy sketch that Is brim full of comedy and singing, and both will demonstrate clev erness as dancers. As a special number for the ladles and children. Mr. Wells presents Little Elsie, “The American Loftus.” The little miss Is one of the cleverest mimics in stage land. She is also original and she sings selections that will please. Her Imitations arc perfect. There will be other numbers nnd all told the bill gives promise of being equal to the best that has been seen here. The usual performances will be given all week, with matinees Tues day; Thursday and Saturday. "The Wizard of the Nile.” The theater going of Birmingham will be pleased to learn that at last the comic opera success, “The Wizard of the Nile" whloh has run successfully for the past five years to tremendous crowds through the' United States and Canada will be seen here. But this will mark the first visit this city of this production with all Its scenery, costumes and cast. One of the big features of this production is the trick alligator which is carried by the company. “The Wizard of the Nile” Is without doubt one or tne greatest comic opera successes on record, having a run of a year In New York, six weeks In Philadelphia, four weeks In Chicago, ten weeks In Boston ana long runs in St. Louis, Cleveland, Plttsourg and other large cities. "The Wizard of the Nile will be pre sented by Grau’s big organization Mon day' and Tuesday October 20-21. "Tuesday night Souaa's “El Capltan” will be the bill. '*r Frank Daniels. Frank Daniels will present his newest success, "Miss Simplicity” for the .first time here at the Jefferson theatre next Thursday. Hla earlier productions in ►•The Wizard of the Nile," "The Idol’s Eye,” “The Ameer" and other mirthfully melodious offerings have been character FRANK DANIELS AS BLOSSOMS, IN “MISS SIMPLICITY.” MARIE DROFNAUL, HANFORD’S LEADING LADY. ized by such emphatic and unmistake able marks of success and prosperity that there is no question as to the hearty greeting that will be extended to him during the forthcoming visit. All ques tion as to whether or not "Miss Sim plicity" is up to the standard of his earlier triumphs has been set aside by the achievement of this composition in New York, Philadelphia, Boston and oth er cities in which it has been thus far seen. Reliable reports from these places are to the effect that the piece offers Daniels by far the best role that he has ever had for the display of those quaint and comical methods that hav» won him his popularity, and the two authors, R. A. Barnet and Harry Lawson Heartz, are credited with having turned out one of the most witty and tuneful pieces of operatic literature that has recently grac ed the American stage. Several of tliu reviewers who have seen the new piece have not hesitated to assert that it is unquestionably the best that Daniels has ever had. The period of the piece, is that of today and this fact opens up the way for the introduction of modern costumes, and it is said that many of the gowns for the piece have been Imported direct from the swell shops of Paris. In this new character of Blossoms, Daniels is an ex trolley car conductor who has become the valet to Lord Montfort, a typical young London swell of the day. Montfort by some quirk of European diplomacy, has been appointed king of a pocket edi tion kingdom on the continent and on his way to the coronation, becomes entarigled in an affair of the heart with a pretty peasant girl. In preference to giving up the -girl* he gives up his prospective throne. The only obstacle in his way is that he must find a substitute to accept the crown. None of his London pals will accept the job and he is at a loss as to 'what to do when his man Blossoms sud denly bursts upon bis view coming through space from the explosion of an automobile. Montfort commands his valet to become the king. Those who are fa PRINCIPALS OF GORDON-SHAY GRAND OPERA COMPANY.

And it is not difficult to imagine the funny strug gles that Daniels puts into his role in an effort to support the dignity of roy alty with a trolley car education as a foundation. The exigencies of “Miss Sim plicity” are such that Mr. Daniels finds it necessary to carry almost twice as many people in his company as he has ever done before. That it is an excep tionally clever organization may be gath ered from the well known names on its roster, among them being Will Danforth, Frank Turner. Mark Lane, John Wheeler, Grace Orr Myers, Kate Uart, May Lowrie, Florence Holbrook and Isabelle D’Armonda. As has invariably been his habit. Mr. Daniels has taken the utmost care in the selection of his chorus and much stress has been laid uponthe youth and dash and beauty of the fair women in his support by the critics who hav, seen the piece. Charles B. Hanford. While "The Taming of the Shrew" Is sufficient for an evening's bill, It is Charles B. Hunford's custom to couple It with "The Old Guard," a one-act play whose pathos and power exceed those of many volumlnious tragedies. It Is the story of a soldier under Napoleon who cherishes honor above everything, and who Is faithful to a trust even In the face of starvation. In order to preserve the French atmosphere which Is essential fo a proper appreciation of the piece Mr. Hanford plays his part with a touch of dialect. The character Is something of a departure from a man whosa work has been hitherto so closely confined to Eng lish blank verse; but the “Old Guard" Is an exquisite bit of literature which is well worthy of recognition among the classics.

The double bill of "II Travatore" at the matinee and “Faust" in the evening, which has been Anally decided upon for the presentations on the occasion of the debut of the Gordon-Shay Grand Opera company at the Jefferson next Wednes day Matinee and evening, will undoubted ly meet with popular approval. No two more popular operas are extant and so much has been heard about the success of the company In them, that Birmingham music-lovers will undoubt edly hall their production with approval. The performance of "Faust” In the evening will probably attract a large and brilliant audience and the old fa vorite "II Trovatore" will draw many old friends, especially for the reason that it is known in advance that the com pany is fully capable of giving a brilliant performance of the work. A number of theatre and box parties, it is said, have already been formed anu the appearance of the company here promises to bring out the fashionable element of the city to a large degree. It has been some time since Birmingham has had a grand opera company and the music-lovers of the city should turn out In numbers. The production of Faust" Is one of the. handsomest which the company has. The east of this opera will be as follows: Marguerlta.Ross Cecilia Shay Selbel .Pauline Johnson Martha .Trfna Winter* Faust .Joseph Frederick* Mephisto .John Dunsmtir* Valentene.Archills Alberti Wagner ..George Franslc Beard Some Idea of the excellence of this per formance may he gathered rrom the fol lowing critique In the New York Herald on the occasion of the production of th* work by Miss Shay and her company In that city: "The role of Marguerite In "Fsuatf’ has always been a test of the great prlraa donnas of the world. It Is not only be cause Gounod’s music Is exacting on the singer, both as to the sustaining power and color capacity, but because the con ception In accordance with Goethe's crea tion must meet the requirements of high ideal. "While the music was written by a Frenchman for a French stage It Is the presentation In operatic dress of a Ger man legend. Notwithstanding the bril liant beautiful melodies that Illumine the score, It Is nevertheless an extremely difficult work to artistically and appro priately cast. It requires artists well balanced of the highest degree of skill to give the opera its proper ton* and effect. It is a love story told In the very finest of the art of music and entails a spectacular picturesqueness not always essential In even the greatest work.

STOCK MARKET REMAINS FIRM Partial Renewal of Operations in the Railroads UPWARD MOVE AT CLOSE To the Conservative Element the Bank Statement, Which Was Favor ably Regarded, Brought Re sumption of Activity. New York, October 18.—The market op ened with a partial renewal of yesterday’s pool operations In the railroad stocks, Baltimore and Ohio made a wide opening, advancing about 1 per cent. Pennsyl vania was active, though Belling frac tionally lewer, as did also Norfolk and Western. The reaction in the latter stock was ascribed to heavy selling by those who believe that any increase In the semi-annual dividend will not be more than one-half of 1 per cent, putting the stock on a 3 per cent basis. Extreme weakness was shown by New York Cen tral and Union Pacific, and St. Paul also sold below yesterday's close. Baltimore and Ohio made a further advance, but the southwestern group, under the lead Of Missouri Pacific, showed somewhat heavy. In the Industrial class, Tennessee Coal and Iron and the United States Steel stocks were the features In point of strength, while sugar and amalgamated copper were lower than at the previous day's close. The list showed some further realizing, due to heavy selling for Lon don and profit-taking by local traders. Prices showed a tendehey to sag In the second hour, but the publication of the bank statement, which was favorably re garded, brought a resumption of the early activity -with better prices. In the final trading,' however, there came another realizing movement, and the closing was weak, with lowest prices of the day for many of the more active issues. To the conservative element the bank statement presented several gratifying fatures, namely, the decrease In the Iorii account, the Increase of almost 31,800,000 In cir culation, the gain in cash, and the In crease of reserve on all deposits which now places the surplus reserve about 33, 000,000 above the legal requirements. At tempts were made to revive interest in gold import movement, but they met with little success. In the opinion of experts any serious efforts to bring in gold before the middle or end of next month will be wholly artificial and profitless. The week was one of the most memor able in the recent history of Wall street. It began with a further liquidation of stocks, this movement being largely in duced by the previous week's disappoint ing bank statement, a further contrac tion of loans by the local hanks and fears of higher money. That this latter feel ing was justified was shown before noon of the first day when the rate for call money advanced to 18 per cent. In the early afternoon a reversal of -these con ditions set in on authoritative news that a settlement of the coal strike was at last under way. The selling movement was checked all around and the list made net gains and with few exceptions In creased Its advantage as the week wore od; advances in some instances extending to more Ihan 10 per cent. Other causes that contributed to the general impor tance was the large purchases of bonds by the treasury, releasing about 320, 000.000, practically Insuring easier rates both for call and tinje money, and the foreign trade statement showing a large Increase in exports. Sterling exchange weakened to a degree and was accom panied by reports of probable gold im ports. but no engagements were an nounced. Total receipts of the treasury for the fiscal year to date aggregate 3175. 600.514, and total expenditures 3163,90].976, leaving an excess of Intake over outgo of over 311,700,000. Trading in the latter part of the week was conspicuous for a series of upward drives in the securities controlled by the various pools. Such stocks as St. Paul, Union Pacific, Balti more and Ohio. Norfolk and Western and the soft coalers as a whole were bought in large volume and.closed with heavy gains. The buying of Norfolk and Western re vived rumors of an increase in the divi dend of that stock, but no official an nouncement on that point was made. It was generally admitted that a better un derstanding exists between the St. Paul and Union Pacific interests, under the t,erms of which the first named system Is expected to reap material benefits, but the exact terms of the deal have not been disclosed. There appears, however, to be little foundation for the report that a St. Paul-Unlon Pacific alliance fias been made at the expense of the Missouri Pa cific road. Nowhere has the virtual settlement of the coal controversy been received with greater satisfaction than in T-oucam, and that center was a factor in t his market throughout the week, lending encbuVage ment by heavy purchases of -the inter national list, a part of which was resold to this market later tn the week- Taking the stock list as a whole, prices still average 10 points below the high level reached a few weeks ago. In fine. It has recovered only about one-third of the loss which began with the heavy liquida tion about two weeks ago. Trading during the present week was widely distributed and commission houses were active on the buying side, but there was much profit taking. Trading in bonds was on a large scale and there were many substantial ad vances in the speculative Ust. United States 4s advanced 4 per cent as com pared with the closing call of last week.

Receipts Smaller by Nearly 25, 000 Bales Than a Year Ago PRINT CLOTHS CLEANED UP Southern Spot Markets Were Active and Steady, While In the New York Market the Trading Was Changeable. New York, October 18.—The cotton mar ket opened steady with prices 2 to 5 points lower In response to poor cables from the English market where futures were net some two points lower. More over, the weather chart reported gener ally fair condltolns, with no rain. The receipts were smaller by nearly 25,000 bales than for the same day a year ago and tha estimates for this week’s “in sight” were for 475,000 bales, as compared with 568,498 bales same week last year. The further reports from Fall River told of cleaned up stock of print cloths with a firm undertone at 3 cents tjid for reg ulars. Southern spot markets were fairly ac tive and steady. In the local market j prices rallied several points immediately j after the call on room covering and light outside buying for a general improvement during the coming week. But vigor ous speculative support failed to mate rialize and toward the close of the first hour opening bids were again In force with the tone barely steady. Private tel egrams from the central and eastern portions of the belt reported unsettled weather and predicted a steady shrinkage in the crop movement from now on. Texa/», too reported a disposition of re- j receipts to fall off. Wall street appeared j to he to llgftten Its lead of January and to cover March shorts preparatory to a withdrawal from the market for a fresh look at the situation. New York.

New Orleans, October 18.—In the spot cotton market today factors were offer ing freely and on the lower grades are not averse to making concession, these qualities being in relatively heavy sup ply, but grades better than middling are firmly held and not a little difficulty is experienced in securing them at the quoted level, Liverpool advices were very discouraging to exporters. Spin ners, encouraged by the huge stocks now held on the other side and afloat for Liverpool are buying only in a hand to mouth way. The exchange committee posted file fnarket today as easy at pre vious figures with sales of 2350 bales of spots and 2200 bales to arrive. The contract market opened 2 to 5 points lower under the influence of a drop of 2 points in Liverpool, hut when it became known that Gates and other heavy western buyers were making large purchases in New York there was a spurt of free buying which sent prices up 4 to 6 points all along the lino. The advance was checked at about that level, however, by the taking in of small profits by room traders and during the remain der of the half day the market ruled dull and without interesting features. At the noon closing the board showed net gains of only 1 to 2 points from yester day evening's range of prices. New Orleans.

New York, October 18.—Disappointing cables had a depressing effect on the early cotton market. While the move was light and decidedly below expectation in view of better weather of late, which should have tended to swell the receipts, nevertheless certain surroundings were unsatisfactory^ such as the high temper ature In the south, uncertainty as re gards the January deal, and the fact that the total movement for the season to date exceeds last year by half a million bales. Bulls, however, will profit by the comparative movement during the com ing week. Since last year's figures were 561,000 bales, which were the largest week's movement of the entire season, It Is estimated that figures of the coming week will not exceed 475,000. Some Inter ior points today reported quite small re ceipts, and while the temperature In a Y-af IV, the south was quite high, the forecast was as a rule for rains or showers, which It Is contended would prove Injurious to the plant. In fact, dry weather Is said to be necessary for some weeks. Esti mated receipts at the ports were 49,000 against' 70.000 last year. The market was dull during the brief session, but prices rallied by 11 a. m. on a forecast of show ers and colder weather for Texas. Ar kansas and Oklahoma. Cotton Letter L. W. Lee Co.’s Letter to H. D. Coth ran Co. New York, October 18.—The question during the coming week will be one of receipts and not weather. This morning the market opened weak as far as prices went, though the tone was more feverish than weak and underneath there was considerable, resistance noticeable; not much trade In May and March until the Houston estimates for Monday were re celped and started a few shorts who were nervous, and this ran March to 8.40 In short order. Ihls is the first time this season that receipts have started the market In any such fashion as this, for that reason *we are inclined to think tSe movement will cut more figure than movement the coming week. We would buy cotton on ally and every break for a steady market. New York Cotton Futures. Months— Open. High.
