TRIBUTE PAID TO ANDERSON WILKES

A Chicago Horse Magazine Prr Tamous Horse of Co;.i..-.;s Stock Farm. DR. W. W. Z. MENTIONED. "WILL TRAVEL IN FAST COMPANY THIS SEASON IN THE RACING STABLE OF GEORGE CASTLE, CHICAGO MILLIONAIRE. Centerville. Ind., May 8. The Chitago Harness Horse gossip says: '"The Jargest stable of horses owned, campaigned and driven by one man is that of George Castle, the Chicago million's Ire theater manager, who is still an amateur under the rules. The string that will do racing in lf07 wli fly at pretty high game, especially in the pacing line. ' Castle has nominated Dr. V. V. Z., s. fast side wheeler, by Anderson "Wilkes, in all the grand circuit purses to which he is eligible. Just how fast the Dr. could go last fall Is a stable se cret, but Castle must rate him up to a

mile better than 2:10, or he would not be entered where all heats will be pacI in that notch or below. On blood lines, the Dr. will do for any company and Castle has been in the racing j game too long to get into deep water with him unless he has shown proper form. "The present owner of Anderson "Wilkes. Commons, an Indiana race liorse man, bred, broke and trained the Dr. W. W. Z., on his stock farm and passed him to George Castle iu 1SH.KJ for $.;oo. "Dr. W. W. Z.. was named for an Indiana politician, as the American Sportsman has it. but no part of Indiana is more familiar with this fact or better acquainted with this politician than Richmond; also with Conunonr., whom we are proud to claim as our nearest neighbor. It will also be noted in this list, that there is anothsr of Anderson Wilke's sons, Jim Daily, entered in the same class, thus with two such. Anderson Wilkes is sure to have another grand circuit winner for 1!N7. . though there never has been a better one yet, in horse history than the good old Effie Powers, 2:'iOne among his oldest colts. W alter Cox, the great Eastern driver, is training another one too this year that will undoubtedly follow in this liua next year. Anderson Wilkes has proven himself

years before as a wonderful speed sire, and owing to his great preservation and ability, he will some day be the leading sire in turf history. While his mark is only 2:'J21, not seemingly very fast in these times, yet it will be remembered such sulkies or paraphernalia as we have at present were unknown, and to have gone a mile in 2:12 with no advantage except a high wheeled sulky, makes his mark equl to 2:10 at this date. But with his strength and endurance, and his followers, adds more to his record thai that achieved under any favorable advantages of today. Piles Cured in 6 to 14 Days. PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. 50c. Free advice given on the germ diseases of domestic animals.

'NO BILLS F BY THE GRAND JURY Second Time in History of Preble County. SEVERAL CASES EXAMINED. Eaton, O.. May 8. The grand jury for the May term has finished its labors, and reported "no bills found." Several cases were examined, but the evidence upon the part of the state was not sufficient to convict any person. So far as is known, this is only the second time in the history of Preble county that no bills were returned. This is certainly an indication that Preble county is one of the best in the state, and that its citizens are law-abiding.

Woman's Trials. Tlje bitter trail in a woman's life Is to be childless. Who can tell how hard the tnigz!e may have been ere sh larnt to resign herself to her lonely lot? The absence of this linfr to bind marital life together, the absence of this one pldjie to mutual affection is & common disappointment. Many unfortunate couples bcome estranged thereby. Even if tnev do not drift apart, one may read the whole extent of their disappointment in the eyes of such a childless couple whn they rest on the children of others. To them the largest family does not too numerous. In many cases of barrenness or childlessness the obstacle to child-bearing is easily removed by the cure of weakness on the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription has been the means of restoring' health and fruitfulness to many a barren woman, to the great joy cf the household. Jn other, but rare cases, the obstruction to the bearing of children has been found to be of a surgical character, but easily removable by painless operative treatment at the Invalids' Hotel and Surf ieal Institute. Buffalo. N. Y.. over w hich )r. Pierce of the "Favorite Prescription" fame presides. In all cases where children are desired and are absent, an effort should be made to find out the real cause, since it is generally so easily removed by proper treatment. In all the various weaknesses, displacements, prolapsus, inflammation and debilitating, catarrhal drains and in all cases of nervousness and debility. Dr. PWce's Favorite Prescription is the most efficient remedy that can possibly be used. It has to its credit hundreds of thousands of cures more in fact than any other remedy put up for sale through druggists, especially for woman's use. The ingredients of which the "Favorite Prescription" is composed have received the most positive endorsement from the leading medical writers on Materia 3fedica of all the several schools of practice. All the ingredients are printed in plain English on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so that any woman making use of this famous medicine mav know exactly what she is takin?. Dr. Pierce takes his patients into his full confidence, which he can afford to do as the formula after which the "Favorite Prescription" is made will bear the most careful examination. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are the best and safest laxative for women. .

At the Theaters Theatrical Calendar. GENNETT. Week of May 6 Repertoire. May 10 Mary Mannering. May 11 "Faust." PHILLIPS. Week of May 6 Repertoire. Repertoire at the Phillips. Those who have not yet seen "The Unwritten Law," as it is being presented at the New Phillips the first half of this week, will still have opportunity to do so tonight. Beginning on Thursday afternoon the Desmond company will present "A Desperate Woman," which is one of the most spirited productions in the repertoire. Specialties this week are of particular interest. "Faust" Gennett. The beginning of the fifth act shows us Faust and Mephisto toilfully climbing the steep rocks and yawning chasms of the peak of the Brocken, in the Hartz mountains, where, accord ing to the German legend, the Witches and Warlocks meet on Walpurgis night (the thirteenth of April) to hold their yearly festivities. The night grows darker and darker; the moon Is in its last quarter and gives but little light. They climb higher and higher; the trees and rocks and distant cliffs take on wondrously fantastic shapes in the dim light of the dying moon: only the hooting of owls and the far away cry of a lonely night-hawk breaks the solemn stillness; strange shapes crawl to and fro, and weird, snake like forms seem to writhe and try to clasp the wanderers in their horrible embrace. At midnight a mighty tempest rises and the witches gather, from far and near to their unholy festival. During tha truly horrifying scene that follows Mephisto . shows Faust the never-failing "Punishment of Evil," and the curtain falls with terror stricken Faust writhing in the Evil One's grasp. A perfect storm of electric fire descends, amid which the imps and witches are seen reveling in their fiendish merriment. The production will be seen here at the Gennett on Saturday, matinee and night. Mary Mannering. Gennett. The engagement of Mary Mannering in her new play, "Glorious Betsy," under the direction of Sam S. and Lee Shubert. will be made at the Gennett on Friday night. In this new play Miss Mannering will be seen in a radically different role from that of her former creations. In this new romantic comedy written especially for her by Rida Johnson Young, Miss Mannering will appear as Elizabeth Patterson, the beautiful Baltimore girl, popularly known as "Betsy," famed for her beauty and wit. The events of the play concern the love affairs which resulted in her marriage to Jerome Bonaparte, while that young brother of Napoleon was on a visit to this country in 1803. The scenes are laid in America and France, and the story deals with those days when Bscsy's career was at its height and when her name was the toast of ever fashionable gathering from Baltimore to New Orleans. The play is an ardent love story, a true picture of one of the most romantic periods of American history and an illustration in the title role of the southern beauty who made pages of international history. "Glorious Betsy" comes heralded as one of the most entertaining of recent comedies, beautifully staged and costumed and acted by a company of unusual strength. These facts coupled with Miss Manncring's great popularity in this city in dicate that her coming engagement will be marked as the most successful of the season. In Miss Mannering's support are such well known players as Messrs. Robert Warwick, Douglas J. Wood. Herbert Carr, Wallace Shaw, E. J. Dearney, H. S. Hadfield. Edgar Baum, Harold de Becker, Reginald BarAgency,
