Comparison between the perennial "The Prince of Pilsen" and the average musical review of the present cannot be otherwise than favorable to the older work. The production of Frank Pixley*s and Gustav Luder's musical comedy at the Grand yesterday afternoon and last night left something to be desired as regards the soenio embellishments which were rather stingy when compared with the elaborately staged musical plays of the period. However, the producers have evidently used the money they might have spent on a 'gorgeous and cumbersome "production" in employing a first class cast and a splendid chorus—and for that let us be thankful. Perry J. Kelley, the present holder of the rights to "The Prince of Pilsen," has the right idea. Being compelled to economize in some direction, he has revived the work with about the same scenic equipment given it fifteen years ago when it was first produced. Indeed I am told some of the scenery used in the present production is as old as the piece itself and it looks almost as well as ever, having been built in a substantial way and kept In good condition by alert scenic painters.

This season's cast is probably as strong collectively as "The Prince of Pilsen" hai ever had, though some of the characters have been entrusted to players of greater distinction than some of those in the present aggregation. For instance, Dorothy Morton was in her prime when she created the role of the widow. And what a glorious voice this prima donna had in those days) She was followed by Trixie Frfeanza, Arthur Donaldson, too, was a brilliant prince. John W. Ransone was the first Hans Waguer, but Jess Dandy, who followed him, played the part in London'and for several years in this country. Mr. Dandy has, indeed, made the part his own by his droll delivery of the humorous lines assigned him. Mr. Da.idy is just as funny as ever. Eda von Luke, the new widow, finds herself midst new surroundings in "The Prince of Pilsen" for her greatest successes had been scored in wion-musical plays. However, she gives a sprightly performance and sings the numbers allotted her, particularly "The Widow" and "The American Girl," in such & way as to win numerous encores. Dorothy Delmore is ag-ain the cute little bell hop. Edward T. Mora gives a spirited performance of the hole .of the real prince—and Billy Arnold is a dashing Tom Wagner. But really it was in the ensemble numbers that the full strength and splendid balance of the company was shown. The male chorus was particularly good, the Heidelberg boys forming a double Quartet of real singers. Last night's audience was remarkably demonstra-

The appearance of Walker Whiteside, in his new play "The Ragged Messenger" at the Grand next Saturday afternoon and night is an event of more than striking interest. The making of the play from W. B. Maxwell's novel was a matter of much discussion and its recent Chicago success is a token of further triumph. The four acts of the play strike a dramatic contrast between the aristocratic circles of London's drawing rooms and the squalor of its slums. The players chosen to represent these characters assure a performance of unusual distinction. Maud Milton who .since her first visits to this country with Irving, has become identified aa an American actress, will be seen as a vivacious woman of title. Lilian Cavanagh, playing opposite to Mr. Whiteside, made her first appearance in Chicago, though she has already won an American reputation through leading roles. She played in Marie Tempest's season of repertory at the Comedy theater,'New York, last spring Leonard Mudie, for several seasons the leading actor with the Manchester Repertory company, Miss Horniman's players, is so far known only by reputation in America, but the number of famous roles he has created in London place him beyond the border of spec ulation. Norman Loring- is also a graduate of the Horaiman company, and for the rest, their names have ail been familiar to Chicago playgoers for some time. There is Stephen Wright, J. Palmer Collins, William Eville, A1 ian Thomas, Arda LaCrolx, George Spelvin, W. H. Whitecar, Josephine Morse and Marie Pettes.

actor, who was last seen here as leading man to Margaret Illington in "Kindling," has the leading male character in "Daddy Long Legs," the current attraction at English's opera house, Indianapolis.

PASTOR ARRANGES LECTURES.

Rev. J. Boyd Jones Announces Interesting Topics. Rev. J. Boyd Jones, pastor of the Central Christian church, has mapped out a course of four lectures^ one to be given each Sunday, beginning Oct. 10, his idea being to test the pulse of the Terre Haute public in all branches of life. The first lecture will be on "The Idpal Wife" and the last on "The Ideal Husband."

During this week, Mr. Jones plans to get letters from twenty-five young Terre Haute men in all walks of life, on what their idea of an ideal girl is. The following week the girls will be asked to give their opinion of an ideal young man and so on. These letters will be read in connection with the lecture but Mr. Jones promises to withhold the names of the writers.

SPARKS SET HOME AFIRE.

During the absence of the family of Mrs. J. M. Clift, 1621 Sycamore street, about 8 o'clock Monday morning, sparks from the flue of an adjoining house ignited the shingles of the Clift home, causing between $600 and $700 damages. The fire had gained a good headway before it was discovered by pedestrians, who turned in the alarm. The greater part of the roof was burned away but the lower floor of the house escaped with little damage

Dress-up Week Effects

The streets of Terre Haute Sunday showed to a certain extent the effect of "Dress-up" week campaigning, but neprt Sunday is expected to prove the real "bon ton" day of the campaign, as next Sunday is known officially and nationally as "Dress-up Sunday," the grand climax to the event when all men are supposed to appear in their "finest" and make a spectacle to .rival that on Easter Sunday.

However, Sunday's pedestrians, and there were many of them, having come out to enjoy the balmy summer breezes, showed clearly that the campaign was meeting with considerable success. Comparing the size of the two cities, Terre Haute's streets showed better results of "Dress-up" week campaigning than those of Indianapolis. The women, too, were out in their "Sunday best" and added to the general pleasing appearance,

Merchants all over the country are centering their efforts this week to make next Sunday a "second Easter" and have all of the men appear in their new clothes. The weather man is being cornered daily in an effort to send sunshine and beauty on the next Sabbath,

PUTS UP UNIQUE DEFENSE.

Negro Telle Court He Attended Church and Judgment Is Withheld. James Summers, colored, arrested Sunday night while prowling through an alley on the north side was In City Court Monday morning for vagrancy. He said he had been to hear Rev. J. Boyd Jones preach earlier in the evening, and unwittingly touched on a topic of considerable interest to the Judge, who attends the Central Christian church.

The judge asked the negro what the sermon was about and Summers teM he arrived too late to hear the text. He eald the preacher said something about white horses and their riders.

The sermon referred to Mayor Gos som and the council. Summers said he waa in the alley getting chicken feed. Judgment was withheld in the case.

William Poulter, charged with vagrancy, admitted he was guilty but said he only was borrowing money at Third street and Wabash avenue^ where he was arrested. Patrolman Burke told the judge the man was the worst "moocher" in the city and Poulter was fined $50 and costs to be spent In jail.

COTTON CONDITION DECLINES.

Little Promise of Top Crop Offered In Reports. WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.—A heavy decline in the condition of the growing cotton crop during September, almost double the average decline of the last ten years, has decreased the production prospects forecast earlier in the season by almost a million bales. The department of agriculture today estimated the crop at«10,950,000 equivalent 500 pound bales, which would be the smalest crop since 1909.

There is little promise of a top crop, except In the northern portion of the belt, due to the climatic conditions and the unusual activity of the boll weetvil.

MUSCULAR BACKACHE

The muscles of the back do the heavy work of the body. When they are overworked or ill nourished they ache and people who are looking for trouble begin to worry about their kidneys.

Backache may be due to lumbago, which is rheumatism of the muscles of the back, but more backaches are caused by overstrain, overwork and muscle starvation due to thin blood than by anything else.

Dr. Williams' Pink Pills build up the blood and sufferers from backache would do well to try this treatment before giving way to worry over a fancied organic disease. Rest and the tonic treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will correct most forms of backache, even rheumatic.

For people who work too hard or dance too much and sleep too little, better habits and a course of treatment with Dr. Williams' Pink Pilla are all that are needed to drive away the pains and aches that are warnings of a coming breakdown.

Two books, "Building Up the Blood" and "Nervous Disorders" will be sent free, if you are interested, by the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N. Y.' Ton can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at the nearest drug store or by mall at 50 cents per box six boxes, ?2.5^ I

THE HOUSE OF KUPPENHEIMCR,

WANT DEAD ANIMAL BATTLER. Property Owner* to Ask Board of Works to Act.

The' board of public works will likely be called upon in the near future to make some arrangoments for remojv ing dead dogs other than by having the carcases removed by the garbage men, according to some property owners about the city. It is said the garbage men have such large districts to cover that it is impossible for them to make special trips for dead animals. One dog was reported to the garbage men as lying in front of 206 Wabash avenue Saturday and had not been removed Monday morning, while another was reported Friday at Twenty-first and Seabury streets and had not been removed Monday morning. It has been suggested that the board make arrangements to halve a man stationed at the city hall to take charge of such work.

Lyons said Albin nearly choked him to death at Seventh street and Wabash avenue before Traffic Officer Ricklemann could reach the men. Attorney Miller said there was technical guilt but pleaded for mercy. A sentence of $25 and costs and thirty days was suspended.
