Bo governed by this rule and there will be no mistakes or guets work, as guess work in most eases is a failure and proves fata), in all branches of business, and if you start on the wrong track, the farther you go, or progress, the worse you are off. Be sure you are right and then go ahead. How many miserable failures can yeu call to mind by guess work, yet you often submit to guess work in many of the duties and incidents of life. Are you willing to travel a road on a supposition, not knowing its destination? In short, suppose the druggist should mix his prescriptions by guess work, what would ba the result. The answer is very plain and simple: a miserable failure. If the Doctor diagnoses your case wrong, of course bis treatment and remedies ate wrong. It is the duty of every physician to tell and locate your disease, and tell you every symptom, without asking you a question. This Doctor Jordan does, and can do in every case, and the Doctor would advise no cne to take treatment from any Doctor unless he can do this to their satisfaction. If you have to tell the Doctor, whoever he may be, all your aches,

Is a purely vegetable bitter and powerful tonic, and is warranted a speedy and certain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills and Fever. Intermittent or Chill Fever, Remittent Fever, Dumb Asne. Periodical qr Bilious Fever, and all malarial disordora. In miasmatic districts, tho rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst, lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the back and loins, and coldness of the spine and extremities, are only premonitions of severer symptoms which terminate in the ague paroxysm, succeeded by high lever and profuse perspiration. 9

It Is a startling fact, that quinine, arsenic, aud other poisonous minerals form the basis of most of the Fever and Ague Preparations," "Specifics," "Syrups," and Tonics," in the market. The preparations made from these mineral poisons, although they are palatable, and may break the chill, do not cure, but leave tho malarial and their own drug poison in the system, producing aninism, dizziness, ringing in tho ears, headacho, vertigo, and /)tlier disordors more formidable than tho disease they were intended to cure. AYEB'S AGUE CURB thoroughly eradicates these noxious poisons from the system, and always cures the severest cases. It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing that could injure the most delicate patient and its crowning excellence, above its certainty to cure, is that it leaves the system as free from disease as before tho attack.

For IJver Complaints, ATKR'S AGUE CURB, by direct action on the liver and biliary apparatus, drives out the poisons which produce these complaints, and stimulates the system to a vigorous, healthy condition.

We warrant it when taken according to directions.

In the progress of the Rogers trial in the superior court yesterday morning, Wiliiam W. Watkins, one of the defendants in the case, and wbo was under the influence of liquor, took occasion to call Judge Shelton, one of the counsel, "a G—d d—n liir." Judge Rhoads promptly assessed William $5 for contempt of court. The offense being repeated a similar fine was imposed for the second contempt.

Death of Louis Faust,

Louis Faust— and not Fred, as incorrectly stated in last evening's Gazette— who was removed to the pest house a week ago last night, died there at three o'clock yesterday morning. His case was one of the most severe of the confluent small pox, and he suffered greatly. He was badly broken out. The severity of the case was due to the fact that he had never been vaccinated.

The pleasant dancing party at the residence of Senator Voorhees, last evening, in honor of his eon Charles and his daughter, was attended by many of the Indiana delegation in Congress with their families, and other residents of that State now here.

Show Folks.

RICES EVAGELINE COMPANY. "Babes in the Woods" was presented last night to a good sited audience for the first time, ifcd it is to be hoped the last also.

The programme promised charming music, a we»lth of attractions and special scenery—a promise much diluted in performance. The extravaganza is made up and labored poems peculiar to this"variety of shows, ana con-

siderable variety business, The mnsic is borrowed from* various modern light operas, Olivette, Chimes of Normandy, etc.

The most creditable sirging was by Miss Hattie Richardson, whese voice is sweet. The audience encored the "Twinkle Little S:ar," in which she gave a very few pretty notes, and in tlje Bird Song she appeared to advantage.

The performance of the Babes (Miss Richardson and Charles Burke) seemed to afford considerable amusement) although very light. The Very Bad Man (Mr. Joe Harris) and Dr. Copa (Fred. Tfirner) were the most amusing parts, and gave opportunity for some remarkable dancing, especially by Turner, who is very agile, and elastic as rubber. The Evangeline heifer appeared, and brought down the house by the only perfectly utterly funny thing in the whole programme.

The audience was good-natured, applauded and encored repeatedly. The corps of performers was large, including a number of handsome figures that embellished the stage groupings, but judging from the result, we must conclude that the Evangeline and kindred entertainments are running down.

THE COMING WEEK.

Tuesday evening "Rooms for Rent" will be ^produced by an excellent company. It is full of funny situations and laughable complications. The Baltimore Herald sajs of it: "We recommend 'Rooms for Rent' as an infallible remedy for the blues, and warrant it to drive away any amount of dull care."

The "Mighty Dollar" will be given Wednesday evening by the Florences. It is perhaps needless to say anything here of the Florences, as their merits are too well known to our theatre-goers. The ladies are always glad to see this play, in order to "take in" the elegant dressing of Mrs. Gen. Gilflory.

Rice's Surprise Party will give "Cinderella at School" Friday night. The piece is credited with a long and successful run at Daly's, New York.

GOSSIP.

George Rignold is expected to arrive in New Yoik next week. John F. Sheridan, of the Fun on the Bristol company, goes out as a star next season.

Miss Lippincott, the daughter of Grace Greenwood, is to appear in English opera in this country next year.

Oscar Wilde saw Clara Morris in The New Magdalen, at the Union Squire last week, and declared she is "the grea'eat actress he ever saw."

J. N. Gotthold and Fred Bock, of the Lawrence Barrett company, are having a new plsy written for them, in which they propose starring next Beason.

Gsistinger and Mary Anderson play ''Galatea" in long clothe0. Geistinger doesn't have to, but Mary's le^lets are not corpulent enough to look well. "Day and Night," a new comic opera from the French, will be produced shortly at the Fifth Avenue Theater, New York, by the Comly-Barton Company.

Stuart Robson has purchased C. R. Thome's house at Cjhas3et for $15,000 to present it to his daughter Alecia, who is to be married to aNew York banker.

A telegram from Philadelphia says the well k.jown actor John E. McDonough is dangerously ill, suffering from a cancer involving the lower jaw, tongue and ncck.

The New York Dramatic News suggests that Haverly engage Theodore Tilton and 0.*car Wilde, and run them either as the Two Dromios or as a song-and-dance team.

Youth will be produced ac Wallack'a Theatre, New York, three weeks from next Monday. Fifty U. S. regulars will appear in the battle scene, and will be paid one dollar a night.

E. Burt has written a play for Minnie Palmer, and An Old-Fashioned Girl will be the title, if Minnie does not object to the implication conveyed in "old." She is to play in it next season.

H. J. Sargent divulges the following concerning the beginning of Modjeska's American career: "Modjeska'a opening in New York was $422, her second night $112, Christmas matinee $60, Christmas night $166. It was not until after weeks of hard work that Buccess came."

After the revival at the Haymarket, London, of "Ours," in which Mrs. Langtry will play Blanche, it is expected that "Diplomacy" will be revived, in which case the Jersey Lily will be cast for Dora. It is reported that her salary is to be £60 ($200) a week.

Matters are being arranged between Ernest Stanley, of the Evangeline Company" and Richard Waldron, of "Fun on the Bristol," to star! in partnership next season with a new comedy by & popular American author. {It is hoped it will be something worth bearing.

A curious rumor is afloat. It is that when he returns to London in April next, the representation of a constituency in Parliament will be offered Dion Boucicanlt. If FO, he will have matched Sheridan's career tolerably closely, provided he can talk as well as he can write.

Mile. Litta says Cleveland and New York are two places shd most dislikes to sing ia. It seems that one Underner, a music teacher in the latter place, wbo brought her up and educated her abroad, has her under contract to give one concert a year in Cleveland for his sole benefit.

Bartley Campbell has gone to Detroit to luperintend the production of his new play, Friend and Foe," which is founded on an incident in the Franco German war. Another new play of Mr. Campbell's will be brought out soon, st Chicago. It is entitled "The White Slave."

Jtfrs. Lfgrand White, of St. Louis, nee Minnie Madden, a daughter of the late T. W. Davy, of Detroit, is to go starring next season under the management of J. II. Havlin, in anew play by Ed. Chippendale, of Cincinnati, called Chip. She is quite handsome, and only 17, and Havlin has a three years' contract with her.

Lester Wallack has purchased the American right to The Sqmre, the comedy but just produced in London. It is by Pinero, Jhe author of The Money Spinner, but it will in all probability not be seen this season for if Youth, which succeeds The Money Spinner, is a success, there will be no need of any new play till next fall.

Helene Stoepel, better known to American audiences at Bijou Heron, a daughter of Matilda Heron, will play the part of "Berangere," in "Odette," to be produced at Daly's Theater on the 6th prox. Miss Stoepel has the advantage of having seen the character as interpreted by MIL Legault, at the Vaudeville Theater, Paris, just before leaving for this country.

On Thursday night a house in the rear oi a Bowery theater, New York, caught fire, and although the smoke was coming

through the Btage and the engines were located all around the theater, the audience had to be asked three times to leave the theater before they reluctantly complied with the request If all audiences were so cool there would be fewer panics.

The Greek Play, which was produced Monday night at the Globe Theater, Boston, is both novel and uninteresting. The play was originally produced at Harvard College, in Greek/last spring, and now, as then, Geortp Riddle, professor of elocution is that iifttitatioa, is seen in the leading part fie delivers his lines in Greek, the balance of the cast speaking in Eoglish.

There seems to be some doubt as to the result of Miss Anna Dickinson's appearance as Hamlet, in Rochester last week. The New York papers say she was a failure, while the Philadelphia, Detroit, and other newspapers represented at the opening, declare that she made a success. They agree that she drew large audiencer, however, which must be intensely eatislactory to Mies Dickinson. "Rooms for Rent" is spoken of a Cleveland, Ohio, correspondent as follows '"The company is capital from the top to the bottom of the list, and every one in the cast did excellent Work. Mr. Hal-*, the author of the piece, has written a part for himself that is very well adapted to his abilities. He is also a composer of music, and has written many beautiful things, among them being songs in the fourth act of the play.''

A correspondent of one ef the Paris papers gives a somewhat amusing explanation of the ehange in the Patti management. He says: "In this country the Monroe doctrine plays apart in everything, even in the matters purely of art. There was not an American who did not feel insulted at being called on to pay a few dollars to a foreign impressario in order to hear Patti. Now that it is an American Bsrnum to whom he pays his money, it is 'all right,' as they say here."

C. A. Byrne in Dramatic Times: I am very much afraid Mr. Haverly is working too hard. It is only a question of timo when any man wbo carries such a load as that which rests upon his shoulder will feel the strain so heavily that he must give up work for a while or break down altogether. The fact that Mr. Haverly has kept going up to this time, and has successfully weathered some complications that would appall most men, shows that he is a man of far more than ordinary vitality. But he cannot endure everything, and it is with apprehension that I learn of the magnetic rubbings, sleepless nights and restless days he at praent undergoes. Who is there in Mr. Haverly's employ at this time who could take his business in charge if he were to fall ill? N .body of whom I know. And as for rest—he would laugh fit me if I were to suggest it.

And so Louise Cary is not to be married after all. The Cincinnati Star says: We are also glad to be able to state, on the authority of Mrs. Osgood, that Cary is not engaged. Mrs. Osgood says: "She told me the origin of the Btory the other evening. It seems that Miss Cary and a friend were sitting, a short time since, in a Boston theater, when the former discovered that a lady near by was straining her ears to catch their conversation. Miss Cary said: 'There is some one listening to us, let us amuse her.' So she went on, telling about her engagement (a purely imaginary one), and wishing to name some one who was known, she impoaed the responsibility upon Mr. Lorillard, whom she has never met. Miss Cary extremely fond of *a joke, and she carried this so far as to go into all the minute details an to when and where the engagement was made, gifts she had received, and the prospective wedding. The next day it was all published, and a week later had gone like wildfire over the country. So that is the truth of the Cary engagement,'" said Mrs. Osgood.

The Electric Light.

An informal meeting of the City Council took place in the council chambers night before last to discuss the electric light question. The matter was thoroughly discussed, and the entire pommittee which visited Aurora recently seemed highly pleased with the result of the light there. The committee will doubtless make a favorable report at the next meeting of the Council.

The company which is to erect the towers and fdfbish the light—in casa the council acts favorably upon their proposition—is determined to do the work theroughly. Five towers are to be erected, the central tower to be located at the corner of Fifth and Main streets, and the remaining four at distances not greater than five squares from each other. The central light will have a power equal to that of 20,000 candies, and the rest a 16,000 candle power. The towers are to ba 250 feet high, of iron, the foundations to rest at each of the four corners of the street intersections, and the lighte will be raised and lowered by means of the pulleys. All this, if the councill accepts the proposition of the company.

Dora Hesse, the girl who burned the clothes fnrnisbed by her Sheriff Stepp, was informed yesterday by the latter official that if she again destroyed the clothing which he gave her he would turn her out of the jail anyhow. He purchased a pair of shoes and a neat calico dress for her, which she put on, and then left. Later in the day she was arrested by the officers and placed in jail on the charge of vagrancy. It is said the girl's reluctancy to quit the "gloomy portals" is that a "fellow" of hers, a tramp nicknamed "Curly" is confined there, and his sentence will not expire for some yet. In company with "Curly" she has tramped all over the country, finally bringing up here.

The "Rooms for Rent" party which shows here Tuesday night, came in from Greencastle yesterday morning, and went down to Evansville.

A Pennsylvania Tragedy. PITTSBURG, Jan. 28—The particulars of a terrible tragedy which occurred in West Deanjtownship, this county, yesterday afternoon, have just bees {received here. It appears that a young man named Lee, oQWestmiddlesex, Bultin county, •started out yesterday morning on a hunting expedition. Later in the afternoon while walking through the woods a few miles from home he met two young lady acquaintances who also resided at

Middlesex. Without any provocation whatever Lee raised his gun and fired two Bhots, wounding both ladies, but neither seriously. He then ran away, and the ladies managed, after considerable difficulty and pain, to reach their homes, when they informed their friends of the shooting. A brothel'' of one of the young ladies, named Allison, together with three other men, started in pursuit of Lee and came upon him in the woods. He made a desperate resistance and when he found capture was inevitable he committed suicide by blowing off the top of his head. The parties are all well converted and tho affair has created intense excitement, Lee was twenty-one years^f age and has always borne a good reputation. What his motive was for shooting is enshrouded in mystery.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company has awarded prizes amounting to $2,215 to supervisors and foramen of the various divisions between Philadelphia and Pittsburg, as incentives to diligence in keeping its road-bed in good condition.

The prediction is made that should there be a failure or partial failure of crops along the main line of the Wabash next season, the entire system would be placed in the hands of a receiver as a result of the poor business and that officeial would be A. L. Hopkins, the present first vice president, one of the most "slippery" railroaders of to-day.

The recent purchase of the controlling interest in the St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad by Jay Gould aod C, P. Huntington is deemed by the New York Herald remarkable for the vast amount of money involved, the capital being $25,000,000, and the union between two capitalists not before believed to be friendly, The principal point gained by Gould was the checkmating of the rivalry of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe to his Missouri Pacific.

A MODEL BILL.

A bill organizing a railway commission has been introduced in the Mississippi legislature which "takes the cake" even in these days of the Brigham act in Ohio and Bill 42 in the Kentucky assembly. It declares the "train tracks" within tho limit of the stats to be "public highways"— which is a novelty, to say the least. The commission is to consist of three persons at $2,500 per annum each, with a clerk at $1,000 (this seems to be the ruling figure for an A1 commission), and these salaries, with incidental expenses, are to be paid by their victims, the railways, which are to run, like groggeries, on twelve months' licenses, revokable at the pleasure of the c. mmission.

NEW YORK, January 28.—The Circuit Court of the United States for the eastern district of New York, following the decisions of western courts, has enjoined the Long Island Railroad Company from interfering with the business on that line of Wescott's Express Company, and from refusing to furnish all facilities necessary therefor, and has adopted, as a measure of compensation to be paid by the Express Comyany for the transportation of messengers and express matter, ens aad a half first class railway freight rates on actual weights of express freight carried.

The above balance of $1,348,623 is nearly 9 per cent, upon the stock of the company issued against the averaee mileage in operation during 1881. In 1882 the capital stock, increased by the $5,000,000 London is3ue, will be about $2,900,000 and the estimated earnings for this year on the mileage as it stood on Dec. 31st, 1881, and on the average earnings per mile realized in 1881, without allowance for development, will leave a balance of $2,133,422.
