“THE CLANSMAN” AT McVICKER’S

“The Clansman,” by Thomas Dixon, Jr. comes to McVicker’s Theatre, Chicago, June 19 for an all-summer run, its record-breaking success at the Liberty Theatre, New York. Thousands of requests were received that “The «Clansman” should play out the season at the Liberty, but those interested were unable to change the bookings. Ib the interval before the resumption of the New York run the company played to phenomenal business for long runs in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pittsburg and Washington. A characteristic of Mr. Dixon’s celebrated drama is that it thrives on criticsim, favorable or adverse. It has been witnessed with frantic enthusiasm alike in the North and the South. Whether the spectator agrees or disagrees with the author’s views on the negro question has no influence on the enjoyment of the play as a play. Every auditor is held firmly in the grip of the thrilling situations founded -on the facts of history,“the era being that of Reconstruction, when the members of the Ku Klux Klatt wrested the government of the Southern states from the illiterate negroes and rapacious carpet baggers. The mysterious Klan is shown upon the stage, its habit and ceremonial revealed. Through the drama runs the thread of a delightful love story between a gallant Southern cavalier and a beautiful daugther of the North. For those who like old fashioned darkey fun. there are many lively comedy scenes. —- The many advance orders received for seats indicate the McVicker's will be the scene of an unequalled record-breaking run. All orders for seats for “The Clansman’' should be accompanied by remittances made payable to the to the order of Litt ami Dingwall, McVicker’s Theatre, Chicago, Illinois. Matinees will be played on Wednesdays and Saturdays and al) holidays.

CATARRH FROM CHILDHOOD

Cured by Hyomei, the Only Hedicine for Catarrh that B. F. Fendig is Willing to Guarantee. The popularity and growth of Hyomei are unique in the annals of medicine. The demand for the Hyomei outfit and the extra bottles in Rensselaer has been something phenomenal, and B F. Fendig says that he has never sold any other remedy which gave such universal satisfaction and made so many remarkable cures, The fact that Hyomei cures catarrh in the only natural, and sensible way, that is, through breathing medicated air, not by taking drugs into the stomach, no doubt has helped in the introduction of the treatment. There is certainly no other remedy for catarrhal diseases that is so effectual as Hyomei, and its discovery has realized in part Pasteur’s prophecy, “We shall one day rid the world of all diseases caused by germs.” The worst and most chronic cases of catarrh readily yield to the use of Hyomei. People who have suffered from childhood nave been cured by this remedy. J. S. Nugent, treasurer of the American Union Insurance Co., New York City, writes: “Hyomei has completely cured my daughter of catarrh, from which she has been suffering for years.” So many remarkable results have
