FACES THIEF

MRS.,THOMAS COLLIN'S EXHIBITS UNUSUAL NERVE-'

BOLD DAY LIGHT ..INTRUDER

Burglar Dropped His Booty and Fled But Was Later Arrested, by the Police.

A woman's courage is responsible for the arrest of George Brown, aged 48, last night, on a charge of drunk and suspicion of larceny. Brown entered the room of Wm. Rapson, a boHerniaker, at the. home of his sister, Mrs. Thomas Collins, 108 North Eighth street, yesterday afternoon shortly after 2 o'clock. Mrs. Collins did not Hear him open the front door. She was not feeling well, andi was lying on a couch when she heard the ring of silver money. She ran' to her brother's room, but the presence of a bold daylight burglar did not terrorize her. She found Brown with Rapson's trousers in one hand and the money in the other. She. seized the trousers and attempted to get a hold on Brown, but he dropped the trousers and: escaped by. running down the stairs and out the front Hoor. The matter was reported to the police and Brown was arrested last night tv Patrolmen Jones and Gregory at Fourth and Eagle, streets. The sum of $3.(50 was taken from him. When Brown came here several weeks ago, it was on the night of one of the heaviest snows of the winter. He was found lying in the snow almost frozen by Patrolmnn Feiler and •sent to jail for shelter. Upon securing his release, he worked a short time at the Lexington hotel, on Basle between Fourth and Fifth streets. The hotel is run by Mrs. Collins' sister and through the relationship Brown became acquainted with the Collins' home. He claims to be a spectacle peddler. He was given work at the Lexington hotel through sympathy.

On hearing the evidence Judge Rawlev found Brown guilty of larceny, but withheld sentence until he can make some investigations regarding the past character of the man. He will probably pass on the case at the session of the city court in the morning.

THEORIES ABOUT CATARRH

Peculiar Ideas Regarding a Common Disease. Mark Twain's cure for a cold in the head was simple, but' he* claims very effective in his own case his plan was to eat nothing whatever for twenty /our hours or presumably liiitil the trouble had disappeared,

Although riot able to speak from personal experience as to the effectiveness of this treatment, it certainly has the merit of extreme economy, but it occurs to us that the application of it to a case of nasal catarrh might be attended with difficulties.

Catarrh, as everyone knows, is a chronic cold in the head and ]\Ir. Twain's treatment, if it should become a fal would make of us a nation of fasters an army, emulating the example of the immortal Tanner who achieved world wide fame by fasting forty days.

Catarrh is certainly becoming a national disease and there is little doubt but that errors in diet, particularly over eating is a very common cause.

Most people however are more interested in the cure of the trouble than in .the cause, and modern medical science has produced more effective and less Jiei^pic, remedies -than Mr. Twain's.

Hydrastin is a new remedy, very effective in some forms of Catarrh. Red Gum is another which on account of its antiseptic properties is very valuable, while many severe cases of Chronic Catarrh have been entirely cured by the sanguinaria or extract of Blood root alone.

Within a year an enterprising chemist has combined all of these remedies in tablet form, palatable and convenient and the superiority of this tablet over other catarrh remedies is so apparent that all druggists now carry them in stock to supply the popular demand.

They are called Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and it is doubtful if any medicine lias achieved a national popularity in so short a time as this.

Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are used by thousands of traveling men because they can be carried in the pocket and used any time and in any quantity being free .from Cocaine, opiate or any poisonous fdrug.

They clear the head and throat from )f^he disgusting secretions of catarrh, very often in a few hours time. V' For nasal Catarrh they are far superior to any wash, lotion or ointment the use jyiof which is often as inconvenient and annoying as the disease itself.

For coughs, colds, bronchial catarrh 5§and catarrh of stomach these tablets give immediate relief and a permanent cure -where lotions, douches and inhalers make

1g'r.-*'f^that

"bo impression whatever. This preparation is a boon to catarrh 4/ufferers and any tfruggist will tell you Jh Stuart's Catarrh Tablets is a remedy that has come to stay.

The Week's BUI.

Tuesday—"The Hoosier Girl."'. Wednesday—High School Commencement. Thursday and Friday—"McCarthy's Mishaps. Saturday, matinee and night—"Lost

River."

From a rural comedy standpoint, "The Hoosier Girl" deserves great and unlim!ited praise. It is filled to overflowing with dialogue and a plot that is strong and very amusing many new, bright, sparkling specialties an ocean of cami-! *cal situations a bevy of pretty girls, in fact "The Hoosier Girl" is a veritable antidote for the blues, and if you are looking for a bombardment of fun, laughs, and hilarity, you can't afford to miss seeing the petite little actress, Miss Kate Watson, as "The Hoosier Girl" at the Grand this evening.

That evergreen laugh provoker, "McCarthy's Mishaps" with the strongest cast it has had will be at the Grand on Thursday and Friday. The old farce is still as capable as ever of provoking unrestrainable merriment and the present company loses none of the opportunities offered. But the play's not the thing this time. In the cast are so many pleasant entertainers and well known vaudeville artists that the performance takes on a sort of high-krlfts^ vaudeville air. Barney'Ferguson, the veteran Irish comedian, his old-time teammate. John Mack. There are nineteen special- ties in the course of the performance, nearly every one calculated to burst buttons. No wonder the program warns the auditor not to hunt for the plot. There is hardly chance for the plot to get a word in edgewise. Ferguson and Mack are as funny as ever, and their antics throughout the three acta have never been excelled by any of the numerous Hibernian comedians, and their act is a combination of remarkable acrobatics and slap-stick fun which has never been copied during the years in which they have been New York vaudeville favorites. It is entirely unique. "Dick" Ferguson and Grace Bassmore do some of the best softshoe dancing ever seen and the other members of the company are well up to the standard with their efforts at adding to the entertainment. It is by all odds one of the liveliest shows ever presented.

The splendid spectacular production of Joseph Arthur's big scenic melodrama "Lost River, with scenery and effects the same as were used during the phenomenal run of six* months in New York city, comes to this city Saturday matinee and night. The production is said to far surpass Blue Jeans. Three thoroughbred horses are used in the dash for liberty down the old Baden toll road and the scene at the toll-gate is thrillingly realistic.

Mrs. LeMoyne who conies to the Grand Wednesday, February 4th, is not a one part star. Without reflecting in any manner on noted actocs who win fortune out of a single piece of character-work, it may be stated that she finds the utmost pleasure' in passing from the classical and dramatic drama to the gaiety of twentieth century comedy and back again, as occasion requires. A student of Browning, her interpretation of his dramatic lyrics has been extolled by laymen and literatfcurs. She has acted the parts of a French grands dame, an American society woman and a mediaeval queen with equal distinction and facility. On account of her wide range of culture and intellectual powers she is much sought after as a guest at social functions. In New York Mrs. LeMoyne is a member of all the considerable women's clubs, and takes an active lead, in enterprises for the advancement of woman and help to her less fortunate stage sisters. During the SpanishAmerican war she was active in sending food, luxuries and home comforts to the soldiers in the fever camps.

Parrot at the Depot.

A parrot at the Union depot today w:as the cause of a great deal of merrimerit among the various employes. The parrot was in a covered cage, and whenever any one would approach its sanctum, it would remonstrate by a wild scream. Several passengers waiting for trains and casually walking around, not noticing the cage until they were right beside it, would suddenly hear an unearthly scream directly-under their feet,, and the result was usually a wild jump, to get out of the way. fv

HOME CO-OPERATIVE COMPANY RULED OUT AS FRAUD

FORTY BRANCHES CLOSED

Complaint Had Been Made Ayiinst the Concern by Some pf the a re

Avho

The attorney general has rendered an opinion in the case brought by the post office department against the Home cooperative company of Kansas City against which complaint has been heard here. The attorney general sustains the action of the postmaster general in forbidding the offending concern the use of the mails. The opinion of the supreme court in annulling the charter of the company is quoted1 by the attorney general,

adds: "The similar scheme of

the Home co-operative company may not be in a strict technical sense a lottery, but it is a gift enterprise for the distribution of money by chance, and sis such you fire justified in excluding it from the mails. This view of the case makes it unnecessary for me to determine whether the business also is a scheme for obtaining money or property of any kind through the mails by means of false or fraudulent representations. Whatever their intent may have been, their scheme in its operation offends the provisions of the postal laws, which forbids the use of the mails to further, schemes in the nature of lotteries."

It is expected that the formal order of the post office department denying the concern the use of the mails will be issued at once. The order will apply to the local concern at Kansas City, and to about forty branches of the organization throughout the West. The case has been before the department, since last May. The Home co-operative company advertised to build houses and purchase lots for its patrons upon a nominal monthly payment, the awards in each case to be made by lot:

Time is running on— Our shares are being taken up and some day soon people will be asking What about the Vigo Tropical Fruit Company?" and will be answered, "The company has raised the shares to one hundred dollars each, and you can*t get them now for ten dollars," and then some people will be sorry they did not get a move on them when stock was selling at the ten dollars for one share. IQ

The shares now offered at ten dollars will soon be sold, and then the price will be raised to one hundred dollars,—and in two years we will be paying thirty to fifty per cent dividends on the face value of the hundred dollar shares—
