Howard Gould, the rising young romatlc actor who nade such a pleasing Impression by his cie'er work In E. II. Sothern's old success. "A Colonial Girl," last season, returned to English's Opera House last(night In the dual rolo of Rudolph Rassendyll and King Rudolph V of Rurltania In the famous Zenda play "Rupert of Hentzau,' which has also been seen here before, with James K. HaÄett In the leading part. Mr. Gould succeeded In onco more commending himself to the favor of an Indianapolis audience. From the work of this young man in tie two characters he has impersonated here, it is safe to predict that the time will come when, la a popular play, he will crowd a theater. Comparisons are usually odious and often invidious, but Mr. Gould stands comparison with Mr. , Hackett In "Rupert of Hentzau very well indeed, 'llackett Is a great romatlc actor and makes a splendl swashbuckler, but withal he is somewftat inclined to rant, which: always brings better results from tho gallery than the lover floor. Mr. Gould is more repressed and delicate, thereby succeeding In getting closer to the cultivated portion of his audience. His successive portrayals of Rudolph and the King are really brilliant pieces of acting, while the rapid changes from one character to the other are at times almost marvelous. Perhaps the best instance of this latter is In the scene In the tan on the Hofbau road, where the King, sitting with bowed head at a table. Is hidden by a screen for a few instants, then revealed In apparently the same position, while- In the meantime the same man Is In view of the audience as Rudolph Rassendyll. "this clever bit compelled applause In the middle of an act, which is high praise. The greatest enthusiasm, however, was evoked by the really excellent mob scene, which was the climax of the third act. Mr. Gould Is provided with the original Frohman scenic production as may easily be seen from the worn appearance of U13 different rets. - The two scenes of the last act, ons showing a room in the palace and. the other the throne room with the bier containing the body of the suposed King, are still very picturesque. There Is a charm. about these old costume plays that never' seems to pall upon the public taste, and this fact is not discreditable to theatergcerä. One certainly does not go away from a play such as "Rupert of Hentzau" with a "bad taste in his mouth." Of Mr. Gould's supporting company, "Frank McGlynn, who play? Rupert, Is undoubtedly, the best. In the strong situation in the third act. ending with the death of Rupert after a fierce duel. Mr. McGlynn's acting almost rivals that of the star. J. E. McGregor as Bauer, Rupert's villainous, yet faithful servant, and Frederick Uertrand as James Rudolph Rassendyll's. valet, display much ability. Ruth A Id ridge sustains the difficult, though minor, role of Queen Flavia adequately. "Rupert of Hentzau" will be repeated for the last time to-night. Notes of the Stne. For tho first three days of New Year's week. Including Tuesday, New Year's day, the Park has booked Lincoln J. Carter's latest sensational melodrama, "The Eleventh Hour." XXX Ossip Gabrilowitsch, the renowned Russian pianist who has been engaged for the second Amphion Club concert, Jan. 30, is announced to give a piano recital (his third in the metropolis) in Mendelssohn Hall, Jan. 5. xxx The remarkable claim is made for Joseph Le Brandt's new play, "Caught in .the "Web." which opens a three days engagement at the Park this afternoon, that ten rowrjs from Worth, the celebrated Parisian dressmaker, are worn by members of the company. xxx Captain Nellie Sylvester's corps of trumpeters, artillery, infantry, cavalry ami rough riders, appropriately costumed In the habiliments of these branches of the military sen-ice. execute a very pretty drill at the finish of the Utopian show at the Empire Theater this week. xxx The new play In which Blanche Bates will shortly begin a starring tour under ths direction of David Belasco is a dramatization by Paul Potter of Ouida's celebrated novel. "I'nder Two Flags." Miss Bates will play the part of Cigarette, the agabond and camp follower. xxx .Charles T. Miller, an old-time resident of this city, Is here in advance of Sarah Cowell I.e Moyne In the brilliant Liebler production of "The Greatest Thing in the World." which will be seen for the tlrst time at English's Opera House next Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon nnd night. Matinees at this house on both Tuesday and Wednesday are decided novelties. XXX - The Burgomaster." fLuders and Plxley's Clever comedy, which comes to English's for the Urst time to-morrow night. .Is a delightful combination of richly-costumed choruses, pleasing vaudeville, tuneful airs, funny songs and effective tableaux. The Clece coutulns twenty vocal numbers, near

ly all of them credited with making goodsized hits. The engagement includes two

performances Saturday. XXX English's Opera House will provide Its patrons with two strong attractions next (New Year's) week. f Tuesday afternoon and nlht and Wednesday night Mrs. Sarah Cowell Le Moyne will be seen for tho first time here in her great New York success. "The Greatest Thing in the World." Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday matinee Ml.s Selma Herman will appear In J. K. Tillotson's bright play. "A Young Wife." in which she scored a metropolitan triumph early in the present season. XXX Local theatergoers are making the most of their opportunity to see Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Sidman at the Grand this week for the last time In their delicate, dainty and withal humorous sketch, "Back Home." When these clever actors enter in the field of the legitimate drama again with the play, "York State Folks," written especially for their use, which will be in a few weeks. Western theatergoers will be obliged to wait until next season to witness the production. xxx Holiday week at the Zoo Is proving the greatest in the career of that popular amusement institution. The change of programme has Introduced a series of hrenlo-exhibitions that would be difficult to surpass. Albertia puts a pair of fierce Russian black bears through a series of feats without the use of either muzzle or pito!. Sei lea. the pretty Oriental dancer, executes her graceful movements while surrounded by well-trained Hons. Professor Woodward's tricks with the hypnotic monkey, Mrs. Murphy, and the educated pug deg. Little Lou, are highly amusing. The chimpanzee Is proving a greater attraction than ever, now that his stay In this city is known to be limited to a few days The children fairly go into ecstacies over the midget pony. Tiny Bess, that is on exhibition outside of the arena constantly. The two spectacular exhibitions of feeding the Carnivora each day and the free rides on the camels, donkeys, ponies and elephant help to pass an afternoon or evening in a manner truly delightful. Fanchon Thompson as Carmen. CHICAGO, Dec. 26. Miss Fanchon Thompson appeared as Carmen to-night at the Auditorium Theater with Grau & Savage's Metropolitan English Grand Opera Company. This was her first presentation of the character since her partial breakdown in her debut in New York city, and the theater was packed. Miss Thompson was evidently nervous at first and her voice did not have much volume. As her nervousness wore away her work improved, and she won frequent curtain calls. Her voice, however, was apparently hardly powerful enough to fill the big auditorium. PEBSOHAL AND SOCIETY. Mrs.' Harriett A. Malpas and son Rolla M. Malpas are visiting in Pern.

SURPRISE BY ANDERSON

SHE MADE A WpNDCllFLL SPRINT AXD CROSSED TAPE FIRST. Last NigbVa Finish Wonderfully Exciting Llzctte Finished Second Ladles MfiLt To-Msht. Tillie Anderson showed a wonderful burst of speed toward the close of the two hours' riding In the women's bicycle race, in Tomllnson Hall, last night, and crossed the tape first on the finishing lap, with Lisette, the French champion, closely behind and Lizzie Glaw a close third. Lisette's front wheel almost touched that of Anderson's rear wheel, while Glaw's front wheel was abreast of Lisette's rear wheftl. The rapid sprint displayed by Anderson caused the crowd present to stand in their seats and applaud wildly when the girl from Sweden made the prettiest finish that has ever been seen in Indianapolis, and demonstrated without a doubt that she will make a hard fight for first money and the inter8.tional championship, which will be decided in this race. When Glaw dismounted from her wheel she made a protest that Anderson had fouled her, but Referee Krcuss would not allow a foul and disinterested persons who witnessed the finish stated that Anderson had crossed the tape fairly and was so far In the lead of Glaw that she did not have an opportunity of fouling her. The fight for the finish was a desperate one, and for fully five minutes before the two hours were concluded it was almost a continuous sprint, with Andreson leading, then Lisette, and as Glaw made a Jump to go to the front Anderson again sprinted faster and pushed her wheel into the lead. She held this position, although Glaw made a hard attempt to rush Into the lead on the last six laps. The riders were riding at a terrific pace when the revolver was fired for the last three laps. Anderson used all the reserve strength she had and continued in the front, while Lisette and Glaw made fruitless attempts to get into the lead. When the Ehot was fired the riders were very close together, and they swung around the track at a dizzy pace, varying but a few inches. Anderson was in the pace more than any other rider during the two hours. Her cold that bothered her on Tuesday was much better, and she explained after leaving the track last night that she will now be able to do her best the remainder of the week. If she has any more speed than what she used last' night it looks as if she will have mere than a fighting chance to win the international championship from her two strong rivals, Glaw and Lisette. The latter two, however, will make Anderson ride very hard the remainder of the week, and the contest from now on will be even more bitterly contested than on the first six hours. Lisette carried the riders around the track at a rapid pace when she was in the lad, and her ability last night to pedal across the tape ahead of Glaw demonstrated that she is capable of making a very fast race. Her generalship at the finish stamped her as a strong candidate for the championship. Mollle La Tour lost several laps last night, and the best she can do, barring an accident, is fourth place. Early in the evening she hoped to catch the other riders napping and made a Jump from the rear and sprinted several lengths to the front, but was overtaken by the three leaders before she could gain a lap. Managers Watkins and Ruschaupt announced that to-night will be ladies' night, nnd each lady accompanied by a gentleman escort or another lady with a paid ticket will be admitted free to any part of the house. The ladies have patronized th race well, and Mr. Watkins said he wanted tr. treat them as fairly as during the baseball season, when one day a week is set aside for ladles' day. The race continues two hours to-night, starting at 8:30, and two hours both tomorrow and Saturday night, when tho great finish will occur. At the conclusion of the six hours last night the score showed that Anderson, Lisette and Glaw, the three leaders, have covered 124 miles and seventeen laps, and Mollio La Tour 121 miles and fourteen laps. The riders are nearly live miles above the limit placed on the race. SSSBBBBSSS1SSBBBBSBBBSSSBBSSBBBSSSSBSSBBSS1 ACADEMY OF SCIENCE. . Some Remarkable Addresses Will Be Delivered.

Some Local Mall Carriers Received Money and Presents. 'I understand that the mall carriers of this city reaped quite a harvest in the way of Christmas presents from people to whom they deliver mall," said a man who Is prominent in local official life. 'These presents, I am also Informed, quite frequently took the form of money. I do not like to hear a thing like this, for It does not tend to make one swell with pride over the vaunted American manhood and independence. The mall carriers, of Chicago, especially those along the fashionable thoroughfares, on which reside such people as the Potter Palmers, I note by the papers, also fared very well, one man getting something like JtJOO or $700 In cash. I do not know what others might call this, but to me it looks very much like vulgar tipping, such as is Indulged In restaurants to an alarmingly increasing degree In this country. "I am reminded by this information of an incident I witnessed several months ago when I was in Canada. I accompanied a party of friends on a tour of inspection of a British warship. We were shown all over the splendid vessel by courteous midshipmen, and when the tour was ended the leaders of the party proceeded to 'tip the seamen Just as If it was expected, which indeed it seemed to be from the nonchalance with which the money was received. The next day we paid a visit to an American man-of-war and were treated with fully as great politeness by the sailors, but when the Englishmen in the party pulled out coins and tendered them to the men you ought to have seen those manly fellows draw themselves up and bestow freezing glances upon the men who dared to Insult their American manhood by offering them 'tips.' I tell you, it made me swell with genuine rride to witness that incident. For myself, I cannot discern the difference between a sailor accepting a half-dollar or a dollar for showing people over his ship and a letter carrier accepting a ten-dollar gold piece from a citizen to whom he has delivered mall for a year with nothing more than the fidelity he owes to his government." . The words of this objector aroused curiosity as to the habit of rewarding the faithfulness of Uncle Sam's peripatetic employes, and a little Inquiry was set on foot. The result was the dlscoverey that the custom of making valuable presents to mail carriers has been In vogue in this city several years, and that the amounts realized In this way may grow annually larger. The man who carries mail to the hundreds of tenants In the ßtevtnsoa building was per-

haps the luckiest of all the letter carriers in Indianaporis. In addition to receiving a number of valuable gifts, such as chairs and other articles, he was rtren juite a sum of money, so that the aggregate result of his Christmas trip to that building was somethinfir like $50 in money and valuable merchandise. South Meridian street is a thoroughfare upon which mail carriers also love to take dally walks and deliver mail, for they know the big wholesale merchants cn that street are very generous about Christmas time. The practice is Justified on the ground that the postmen are a hard-wcrklng, faithful lot of men and are deserving of some little reward In addition to the salaries they draw from 'the government. Objectors assert with warmth that, while this may be all very true, the reward should be in the form of some suitable gift ether than money. HANOVER MEN AT DINNER.

Stillson: treasurer. R. J. Elvin; secretary, E. 1L Kemper McComb WILL FIGHT TO THE END RIVER BOUNDARY CASK TO GO TO TUE HIGHEST COURT What Attorney General TaySor Sayi Extract from Dissenting Opinion ot Kentucky Judges A year ago In November tho Court of Appeals of Kentucky, unanimously rendered an opinion In the case of Meyler vs. Wedding, holding that Kentucky had exclusive jurisdiction on the Ohio river, and that no Indiana court had any Jurisdiction whatever below low water mark, either In criminal or civil matters; that no summons could be served in a civil case, nor any arrest made in a criminal case on the Ohio river. It was not known to Attorney General Taylor that such a case was pending at all until after the decision had been rendered. He then obtained leave of the Kerilucky attorneys to appear for them and file petition for rehearing, and the Court of Appeals permitted him to appear and have a reargument of the case. That court now divides and two of the judges. In very strong and vigorous dlssentiRg opinions, find in favor of the doctrine of concurrent Jurisdiction in both civic and criminal Jurisdiction in both river between the States of Indiana and Kentucky. The majority of the court, however, refused to change their opinion and the case will be certified back to Bowling Green, Ky., where proper records will be made, permitting the case to be taken to the Supreme Court of the United States. Attorney General Taylor has already taken steps to perfect an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States. It is a question of too great Importance to Indiana to suffer such a decision to stand. He says: ' "Indiana, for seventy years, has maintained concurrent Jurisdiction. Men have been tried and convicted of murder In the first degree; have suffered life sentences: the rights of property have been disposed of in Indiana where arrests were made and service of summons had on the Ohio river below low water mark. Indiana will not surrender Jurisdiction now at this late day. In fact the concurrent Jurisdiction was maintained by Indiana before she was a State, during her territorial life. "If the case was one of first Impression with the court of Kentucky, it would be different, but the Kentucky Court of Appeals again and again have held that Indiana and Kentucky have concurrent Jurisdiction on the Ohio river, and this is the first break from the long line of decisions of her Supreme Court. It Is without reason and against all the authorities." DISSENTING OPINIONS. The two dissenting "judges close their vigorous opinion with the following language: ' "There Is greater reason for the concurrent jurisdiction on the river where the low-water mark on one side is the line between the States than where the line is at the center of the stream, for the reason that -the State holding to the water edge at low-water mark on its side of the stream would otherwise be practically at the mercy of wrongdoers on the river, and the policing of the stream would be a burdensome tax in many cases on the other State with little correspond ing benefit. Indiana has on the shores of the Ohio the cities or uvansviue. New Albany, Jeffersonvllle, Madison, Lawrenceburg. Aurora. Mount Vernon, Itockport, Vevay, Canelton, Leavenworth and a num ber of smaller towns. Concurrent Jurlsdlc tion Is a practical necessity In the admin istratlon of government on the river. Other wise the police boats maintained! by these cities will be no protection. A thief can sit along side the wharf boat In open posses sion of stolen goods and the entire peo ple on the north shore of the river will be utterly unable to protect tneir naroors, landings or wharves or other property from the army of river tramps, here today, gone to-morrow, leaving no trace behind, and only known to have been present from the stolen valuables that are not to be found. 'In many years no practical inconvenience has resulted from the concurrent Jurisdiction exercised by Kentucky and In diana on the river, and there is no reason for the apprehension of trouole in the future that may not be settled by the prin ciples applied in other cases of conflict of laws. The two states nave concurrent ju risdlctlon on the river, and neither can by its laws Impair or control the Jurisdic tion of the cause and the parties will re tain it and the courts of the ether State will not interfere. "No question of conflict of law arises in this case. The only question is whether the Judgment of the Indiana court Is void for want of Jurisdiction, because the pro cess on which it was based was served on the Ohio river." CITY NEWS NOTES.

The greatest danger to life in ths city is not the car with its clanging gong, but those silent invisible foes, the germs of disease. The prevalence of consumption in cities is stated to be largely due to the frexjuent expectoration of diseased per

sons, whose dried sputa mixed with the dust and blown into the air, is inhaled by some luckless man or woman. Sanitation may minimize these perils but can never obliterate them The essential thing is to edu Icate every person to the " knowledge that the germ can find no permanent lodgment in a healthy body. Keep the blood pure, the stomachy and other organs of digestion and nutrition in sound health and vou are practically germ proof. This disease resisting condition is obtained by the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical 'Discovery. It purifies the blood, strengthens the stomach, nourishes the nerves, and heals the lungs. Even when there is obstinate cough, bronchitis, spitting of blood and other conditions, which, if neglected, lead to consumption, the faithful use of Golden Medical Discovery will, in almost every instance, eöect a cure.

I then called on a doctor, who said that one-half of my left lang was gone, and advised me to leave my home and go to the country. I wrote to you for advice. I took four bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery which I wncerely believe has done me more good than all the other medicines I hare ever taken.
