DE ANGELIS IN TOWN

FAMOUS COMEDIAN TALKS OF HIS NEW COMIC OPERA

THE LAST WORK Off ULLIVAN

Action Occurs in Ireland About One Hundred Years Ago—Large Company With Him.

Jell De Anglelis, the famous comic opera "star arrived in the city today from ln'jdianapolis, with his large company of 'players and he will be seen this evening at the Grand for the first time in this city in his new comic opera, "The

Emerald Isle." In speaking today of his latent work the comedian said: "The opera possesses an additional interest on account of being the last Svork of Sir Arthur Sullivan. The composer did not live to finish the work that he had begun and the scorc was completed some time after his death by Edward German. Sir .-Arthur Sullivan wrote all of the first act and several numbers of the second. It was well that the finishing touches fell into the hands 'of so competent a musician as Mr. German. as nearly all of his share of the work is very praiseworthy, his Irish •lance and a military chorus about the lri!i soldier being delightful creations.

Sir Arthur's sparkling music throughout the first part of the entertainment exorcises the same magic influence as of old over the audience, and his Jaeautiful serious composition, 'Good-bye, My Native Land,' which is sung by Bernard Sullivan and Kate Condin toward the close of the opera, and which was the last work that the great composer ever accomplished, receives several encores at each performance. "The libretto of the opera was written by Captain Basil Hood, who is admired in England for several little one-act plays and short librettos. "The action of the opera occurs in Ireland about one hundred years ago. The cene of the first act is just outside the fates of the palace of the lord lieutenant, the Earl of Newton, where a company of peasants, like all other Irish peasants ever seen on the stage, are holding a secret meeting to protest against English rule."

WAS COLD IN '64

'Soldiers Were Here in Camp Dick Thompson Then and Nearly Froze to Death.

The severe weather has instigated peoile to thinking of the coud weather in it her years. The stoTies being told show he younger generation that the city las had some severe sieges, in its hisory.

In January 1864 a particularly severe ,pell of cold weather, was experienced. the time the 71st regiment was staioned at Camp Dick Thompson on the lloomington Toad two miles east of the •itv. The men were housed in what vould not now be regarded as good sheds .nd nearly froze to death. Coal was carce, and it wa-s with the greatest difficulty that they kept warm. Finally fter they had burned everything that vas not shelter, they were brought to the ity and given quarters in the old court louse, where they staid till ordered to he front a few weeks later.

WIFE WAS CRUEL

lilo Stephens Says That His Wife 3 Whipped Him and Was Un bearably Cruel.

Milo Stephens has begun suit in the uperior court against his wife, Grace lughes, asking for a divorce. He says nat he and Grace started to trot in ouble harness less than a year ago, and hat now he is ready to kick out of ho traces. He says that they had been •get'her but a short time before Grace dopt.ed corporal punishment for chastisig hiin for any act that might displease or, and that besides this little eccenricity on the part of his wife she would ^frain from remaining at home and ^•tending to her household duties. She now away from home and plaintiff ants a divorce so she will be forced to lay away and not be permitted to come ack and whip and abuse him.

AND SO

he Found How the Coffee Habit Could Be Easily Left Off.

"My husband had coffee dyspepsia for number of years," writes a lady from hmdee, N. Y. "Coffee did not agree ith him as it soured on liis stomach and decided to stop it. i"Wc felt the need of some warm drink nd tried several things but were soon ived! of them. Finally A friend told me f- the good Postum Food Coffee had one her family and I ordered a package 'om the grocer. S"We have used it for three years with lendid result. It agrees perfectly with js stomach and dyspepsia has entirely jft him. I find in talking to people who ive used Postum and not liked it that ie reason is that they dio not let it boil nig'enough. When prepared according directions, it makes a beautiful, clear, jlden brown beverage like the highest -ade of coffee in color. "We let the children have Postum ••ery morning and it agrees with them icelv and they thrive on it. I am sure mt if everyone using coffec would lange to Postum that the percentage of ivftlids would be far less than it is at recent." Name given by Postom Co., i'f tie Creek, Mich. tit i* easy to change from coffee to Ostum and the benefit is sure aiul quick, i^Postum is composed only of the $ain$ intended by-nature for mart's subfetettoc and it goes to work in nature's to correct the disorders caused by fjffee and rebuild the broken down blood jU-l Oerve cells. A ten days' trial of will prove this to the most ptral.

DRUMMERS IN

TRAVELING MEN HEAR SERMON BY DR. WHEELER

AFFECTING SCENE OCCURS

Several of the Travelers Professed Religion and the Testimonies They Gave Were Unusual.

At the First Baptist Church last evening the sermon by Rev. Kittredge Wheeler was to traveling men. Mr. Wheeler spoke of the peculiar temptations to which business men and traveling men especially were exposed, and also spoke of the fundamental standards of success, recognized now by all business houses. "It is not necessary to set up the drinks or to 'see the town' to sell goods. The goods are their own commendation." Mr. Wheeler referred to the Gideous Band, an organization of Christian traveling men in Chicago, who frequently take charge of the entire evening service in many of the churches in the city. They are also engaged in active Christian work on the road. The meeting last night was one of special interest and of deep spiritual power. Many of the traveling men were deeply affected.

Alter the sermon Mr. Wheeler invited all to remain in the auditorium to a short second meeting, and then tliere followed one of the most remarkable scenes ever witnessed by an evening congregation.

When Mr. Wheeler called for remarks many of the traveling men responded. One very bright young man, from a neighboring southern state rose in the meeting and said: 'It is eight ye are since I have been to church. I went this morning, and I was impatient for the hour to come for this evenings service, and I am glad I am here. I am selling whiskey. You will be surprised at that. I wish I were out of the business. I return to my business house soon, and I shall then look for something else." Mr. Wheeler took the young man by the hand saying: "God bless you, my brother. Get out of that business at once. A man of your ability does not have to engagb in a business like that." "But/' said the young man aloud in the meeting, "It is $2,500 a year to me." "Yes," said Mr. Wheeler, "but a man like you can earn $3,000 some where else."

This was immediately followed by another young man, who rose and said: "I am selling cereals. My business differs very much from that of my brother before me. And by the way, my friend, get out of that business as soon as you can. It is but a short walk to (mentioning the man's city). Go there and give up your job. A man,.

of your heart and of your parts, don't have to sell whiskey." Following these two testimonials, several other traveling men rose and spoke out of their hearts, expressing the desire to lead a better life, and asked for the prayers of Christian people.

The audience was deeply moved by these testimonials, as the men spoke with the deepest emotion and some with tears. Many said they were never in such a meeting before.

At the close almost the entire company rose expressing a desire to live nearer God. Mr. WheelerT expects to preach next Sabbath evening to the business men of the city,

NOJETO NECESSARY

.THE ORDINANCE ORDERING BOND ISSUE FOR PARK NO GOOD

MAYOR STEEG HEDGING

Says New Ordinance Will Be Passed and He Will Not Veto It—-Time Limit Too Short.

Mayor Steeg has found a way out of the dilemma and he will not have, to veto the ordinance passed at the last meeting of the council ordering a $25,000 bond issue for the purchase of a 145x545 park on East Main street. The mayor, however, claims that he has changed his mind and would not veto the ordinance, to defeat it.

The ordinance "provided that the bond should be sold on the 20th of this month, and the law requires that the Sale of bonds must be advertised two weeks before sale. Tlie» ordinance was passed on the sixth, and the mayor is allowed ten das to either sign or veto a measure. Up to the present time he has done neither, and shoulrf'he attach his signature to the ordinance now, there would not be time to advertise the required two weeks prior to the date set for the bond sale. This, the mayor says, kills the ordinance and leaves the park proposition just where it was before the last council meeting. There will be no need of a veto, because the ordinance would be null even if it had the mayor's signature. Had he signed the ordinance on the same night it was passed, there would have been barely time for the advertisement, before the date fixed for the sale of the bonds.

The mayor says there is no question but that the matter will be again brought up at the next meeting and a new ordinance presented, giving sufficient time to advertise for the sale of the Jionds. When asked whether or not lie would veto the next ordinance, he said that he w,ould not as he was now in favor of buying the ground, "as a majority of the people wanted it." He says that he has changed his mind regarding the proposition, and he believes that the purchase will be a wise business move. He says that if the tract proves too small for a park, it could be platted into city lots and a neat profit from the purchase realized. When the measure was passed by the council the mayor was. pronounced in his opposition and his talk indicated that he would apply the veto power. There is much' and varied speculation as to what brought about his sudden change of base. It is certain the measure will have opposition when the next ordinance comes before the council.

DEALERS ARE AGREED

FAIRBANKS SAYS THEY ARE NOT FIGHTING COAL TRUST

MAY 1 WILL SEE A COMBINE

Local Capitalist Says It Now Depends on New York Capital and That Will Be Forthcoming.

Crawford Fairbanks, in an interview this morning, stated that it was his opinion that the coal trust would go through before May 1st. It all depended, he said, on the JSew York .parties who were to supply a portion of the finances for the deal, and what they would do was a matter almost -entirely of conjecture. 'i

The options have been extended1 to May 1st, said Mr. Fairbanks, and it is hoped that before the expiration of these options something definite shall have been done in furtherance of the coal trust. Of course," he added, "the consummation of this deal, as the papers have all along intimated, depends largely on the New York capitalists who are, looked to to help finance the affair. Whether or not they will do this, is a matter pi conjecture, but the movement is so evidently a good thing for all coal men, and consequently a good business deal that the likelihood is of their backing the movement. "As to the .progress being made, or the methods being used to bring about the combination, Mr. Fairbanks declined to commit himself, nor did he incline to discuss the drawbacks, such as the fact that the present enormous prices the operators were receiving for their product, would incline them to want an exorbitant price for their properties, when they were sold. He said, however, tnat the fact that they had' extended the options on their properties, tended to show that the dealers were in favor of the movement.

v. "V

Th^ deal, lie believes, will be consnmmated before the options expire on May 1st. Who the probable officers of the trust would be, he stated, was a matter which was as yet wholly conjecture, aiv1 lie nor no one else knew.
