" " " - - -26 Om weak, by earriar .06 For information where to get Thanksgiving and Christmas things consult the advertising columns of The Paluwi-m. They are an unerring guide to the places where the best poods and best bargains are to be tad. It is now stated that Queen Wilhelmina's illness was precipitated by a violent quarrel with her husband. Duke Henry did not slap her as Alexander did Queen Draga, but he went off on a tantrum and refused to come back until his mother-in-law begged him to return. Verily, there be skeletons in palatial closets. Ii?t every person, who is able, consider himself or herself a committee of one to see to it that nobody in this community 6hall be without a Thanksgiving dinner. AThanksgivinp din ner does not necessarily include tur. key or any other particular thing, but it does mean something out of the ordinary. It is hard to be duly thankful with an empty stomach. Ex-Congressman Lorimer of Chicago has sued the Chicago RecordHerald for libel. He asks $100,000 damages. Mr. Lorimer has for a vjood many years occupied the position of Republican boss in the city by the unsalted sea. Of late the fates have turned against him and his nominations have been unpopular. Now he seems to be more sensitive to newspaper attacks than formerly, and hence the damage suit. The strike of the switchmen at Pittsburg is a very serious matter to the business interests of the country just cow. The roads centering in that city, especially the Pennsylvania, have for some time been taxed to tbe utmost to handle the freight on their respective lines. This strike will cause a congestion of freight at many points and will seriously embarrass both freight and passenger business. The advance in pay demanded by the strikers is not large and. to an outsider, it looks as if the conflict ought to have been avoided. It is claimed by the strikers that they are simply asking for the same wages in Pittsourg that are paid in Chicago. HAGERSTOWN. Harry Cheesmaa returned to his home in Kansas last week. Sadie Shaffer attended the wedding of her sister, which took place at New Castle last week. C. T. Knapp is erecting an addi tion to his marble?hop 20x27 feet.

To the Public, Allow me to say a few words in p-aise of Chamberlain's" Cough Remedy. I can recommend it with the utmost confidence. It has done good work for me and will do the same for others. I had a very severe cough and cold and feared I would get pneu tnonia, but after taking the second dose of this medicine 1 felt better, three bottles of it cured my cold and the pains in my chest disappeared entirely. I am most respectfully yours for health, Ralph S. Me vers, 64 Thirty-seventh street. Wheeling. W. Va. For sale bv A. G. Luken & Co. and W. H. Sudhoff.

Hw,--V 1 AMUSEMENTS. t

WHITE SLAVE. j At the Gennett this evening the "Whiteslave" will be the at traction. The "White Slave" is what can be ' termed stijoiiy a moral play. The ' -entiment'is iofty, and the struggle i of a young girl to guard her chastity I against the onslaught of a racally roue forms the oasis of the plot. There is nothing to offend and much to admire in the theme, and, moreover, it is all not only probable, but the same scenes were constantly enacted in real life during the period of slavery. It was the same condition so grapnicaiiy renectea in i.ne White Slave" that brought about the war of '61-'05, and it all nas the charm of history and as it interested the oast generation so will it enter tain and enlighten the children. It is vastly superior to the later day productions of the same class, and when properly staged, as it is this season, it can not but renew its triumphs. Special prices 25, 35, 50 1 5c. THANKSGIVING PLAY", Mistress Nell at The Gennett on Thanksgiving will do a fine business. The rush for seats is already great. There is a matinee in the afternoon. Tbe prices are 50 and 75 cents, and seats are reserved as for the night performances. No play ever produced bas a record or success equal to tnat of Mistress Nell. It was originally produced in New York and Henrietta Crossman in tbe title role and its success was so instantaneous that the limited engagement of three weeks w .s extended to an entii e season Mistress Nell occupying during last year the Bijou, Savoy and Wallaeh's theatres in succession. HORSE SHOW FEATURES. Cnlqae Drrorlio at a Fiboh (( tilt in Hosteiry. The Waldorf-Astoria hotel, in New York, houors the horse show with the most elaborate floral decorations of its history. Proprietor Georgre C. Boldt deputed Florist J. II. Small, who created the flowery fantasies of the Rockefeller weddin?. the Mackay and Bradley-Martin balls and the inauguration at Washington, to transmogrify the big hotel into a bower where beauty and the horse will divide the honors. The equine symphony's first movement will begin in the pillars and trellis work of the Thirty-fourth street portico, which will be twined with a medley of Florida smilax and incandescent lamps, says the New York Journal. At night the lamps will nestle like fireflies in the ropes of green. As the visitor swings in bis hansom Into the driveway he will be confronted with a statuelike hansom banked in chrysanthemums and palms and yoked to a steed, blue ribboned, fashioned out of 2oO,000 leueothea leaves from the forests of South Carolina. This horse was not made In a day. It took three months to build him out cf nothing but leaves. He is constructed on the lines of one of last year's winners, j From the pillar capitals in the main lobby will depend facsimiles in flow-, era of the heads of equine wonders of former shows, each with his appropriate ribbon. Passing from the office to the ladies' reception room, the eye will be challenged by the counterfeit presentment of a horse life size done in Pennsylvania moss. Palms and flowers will flank the bases of the supporting columns of tbe lobby, and fragrance will be heavy everywhere. Profuse decorations will delight the senses in the dining rooms, palm gardens, billiard room and cafes. The chrysanthemum in yellow, white and blue will furnish the dominant note, relieved by coils and wreaths of southern smilas and asparagus vines. There will be 60.0tX) chrysanthemums in evi dence. Including several hundred Timothy Eatons. which retail at a dollar apiece. Fresh flowers will garnish the dining rooms every morning, and the menus will be decidedly horsy in getup. Saw the JoVr. A prominent Bostonian inquired of a London shopkeeper for Hare's "Walks In IjOiiduti." The shopkeeper, after much BeaYch. found it on his shelves, but in two volumes. "Ah." said the Bostonian, "yon' have your Hare parte! in the middle over here." "What"'" qneried the Englishman blankly, passing his hands over his hair. Tiie nest day the Bostonian called for .mother !ook. "" - "I'm so glad you returned. said the Kuglishui.'Mi. "I want to tell you 1 see that joke." Cared. The following is a Chinese joke: In a certain house there was a baby that annoyed every one by its contin ual squalling. At last a physician was! " - - .... .

AS A CRITIC ;

j Much Interested In James Creelman's New Book. ! two EurjncTs appzal to elll The SUmmRn Telia What lie Thinks A boot I lie I'ope -Ueaevoleal Draw f poiiam bbb . -ixi -mr y if liajtrrr YVilb Tolslot'a Viena o n Marriage aa Reported by Creelman. Hall Caine has written the following Interesting letter, which a friend of his recently sent to the New York World, on socialism, religion aDd marriage apropos of James Creelman's new book. "On the Great Highway.Ckekca turu. Isle of Man. Nor. Z. ' I have read with a great ileal of pleasure Janrea Cre. man's stirring book. "On the Urrat Highway." Two al least of the subjects he deals with are of great interest to me. The first is the pup and his views on social questions. The pictare Mr. Creelman presents of his risit to the Vaueaa is admirablr faithful to the atmosphere of (he g-reat house as I know it. and the version be gives of the pope's views is not onlr true to tbe spirit of the holy father's published encyclicals, but he has caught with quite extraordinary fidelity the tone and manner that are peculiar to the Vatican utterances and especially characteristic of the speeches of its great bead. I confess that with all my reverence for Pops Leo XI1L as a Christian statesman I fail to realize the definite menace conveyed in tbe words Mr. Creelman has given. As in the encyclicals, so here, the church by Its honored mouthpiece teils the world that it must cultivate religion, be obedient to its bishops snd bow the knee to the authority of the pope. Such in effect is the word of life which the church gives to s sick world through the mouth of its sovereign pontiff, snd it leaves undisturbed the great inequalities of rich snd poor, which are the manifest causes of the world'! unrest. Perhaps ft is too much to expect the holy father to be more definite. His obligations sre too many; the claims upon him sre too pressing. Perhaps, if one may say so without offense, his own position is too perilous. For my own poor part, having none of these responsibilities, I do not hesitate to say plainly that the only solution I see of the grievous social and economic problems that weigh on the world at present lies in the direction of the triumph of democracy; but this means the downfall of all forms of arrogated authority, even when they come In the guise of a benevolent despotism having its only logical seat on the temporal tliroue of the sovereign pontiff. The second of the two subjects which most In-' terest me in Mr. Creelman's suggestive book is Tolstoi and his views of marriage and the social order. There cannot be a more sympathetic and often enthusiastic reader of Tolstoi than myself, but nowhere have I seen the essential sophism on which his great mind is built more plainly revealed than in these chapters of conversation. Tolstoi was gone further since Sr. Creelman talked with him, and in one of the admirable little books published by The Free Age Press ("The Relation of the Sexes") he says plainly that in his view -marriage is an un -Christian institution," that it is "a sin demanding redemption" and that people should marry in the same way as they die. "only when it is impossible to do otherwise." This at all events is no uncertain note, and if we may take it in relation to Mr. Creelman's conversation il is strangely wanting in the quality of loRic. Mr Creeltran presents Tolstoi as saying that the physical impulses in marriage, like the appetite of hunger, are the expression ol a law of nature and therefore neither good nor bad. A?ain Mr. Creelman descrities Tolstoi as saying, contrary to an essential tenet of Christianity, that human nature at its root is good. Now. if human nature ia good and the impulses in marriage are of nature, how comes it that marriage ia "a sin demanding redemption Tolstoi's views on the social order, as revealed In Mr. Creelman's book, would appear to me to be equally wanting in tbe quality of logic He approves of Bundareff's theory, which requires that every man shall work with his hands to procure the necessary food for his own subsistence, meaning by that that he should till the earth and grow grain to make his own bread. At the same time he admits that the developments of modem civilization, with railways, bridges, ships, telegraphs, tbe press, universities and all. other machinery of social life which has been built up throughout the ages are hastening the day when humanity will be one great family and the Christian law of love and brotherhood will piers iL Here, surely, is an absolute .contradiction. If every man had spent some portion of his time in tilling the earth for his awn maintenance, the present order of civilized life could not possibly have come to pass, and if we carry the world back to a condition in which each man tills the soil ar his own maintenance, we reduce it to a condition in which the Christian law of universal brotherhood could not have come to pass. My conclusion (which I advance with all humility against the authority of Tolstoi's great name) is that the laws of nature, whether in the relations of the sexes or the relations of the classes, are working out tbe will of God. If they are not doing so. 1 am compelled to conclude that for 6,300 years the Almighty has been sllowing the world to go in the wrorg direction under the influence of laws which humanity has been powerless to control. Before I can think that I shall conclude that there is no Cod in the world at a'l and put Christ;an:ty aside as a painful and cruel delusion. I find the sadness of tbe world, the mystery of its great burden of sorrow, as perplexing at if appears to most men. but I should abandon faith altogether if I did not fiel that on the whole and in the long run and taking the universal view the world is ruled in righteousness. ELvu. Caisc The Animal Mas aad viae Newsboy. If Mr. Thompson Seton chose, he could write a book on his lecturing adventures that might prove as interesting, though in a very different way, as bis "Lives of the Hunted," says the New York Commercial Advertiser. Not long ago he was stopped at the theater door by half a dozen ragged boys, one of whom said. "Say. mister, are you de jay dat talks about de animals?" -Yes." "Well, say. won't yon give us a pass? "How many are there of you?" "On'y eleven" (others now appearing). Mr. Seton called his manager and said: "Pass these eleven boys." rere's eighteen now," said the spokesman. "All right; pass eighteen," said Mr. Seton. After his lecture of an hour and a half was over he stepped out of the stage door, and there were the eighteen awaiting as before. Their spokesman once more came forward, and tnrse were his sentiments: "Say. mister, dat was great! Yon're no Jay; you're a bird a reg'iar bird" Plaatln Wild T.rkers. The attempt is being made on some western game preserves to plant th wild turkey. The bird, are trapp and their wings slipped. Sometime they axe allowed to breed with the tame birds. Tbe young then show less inclination to wander, but are not so good for purposes of sport and lack the delightful - fiavor for which tbe wild ancestor is fasous. -
