Boston, l-'eh. L". George A. Fernald. f the Boston banking house of George A. Fernald & Company, on who.se application a receiver w&s appointed in Indianapolis for the Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville Railroad company.

lias made the following statement: "The application for receivership in connection with this road was a friendly one. The Chicago, Cincinnati ud Iouisville railroad is an exceptionally high grade road from a physical standpoint and has a total bonded indebtedness of but $23,000 a mile, Including the terminal property in Cincinnati. The bonded debt, is distributed as follows: $3,154,ooo first mortgage 5 per cent bonds; $3,Ol i.OOo, 4M per cent bonds; $30,000 equipment bonds; $75,000 Hammond Belt railway .bonds; total, $fl.7,(KM). The railroad is a consolidation of the Cincinnati A Indiana Western, the Cincinnati, Richmond & Muucie, and the Chicago Sc. Cincinnati railroads, with a total trackage of about "Js." miles. The application for a receiver is due to the inability of the company to raise money under existing conditions, and as a result its earnings have fallen from $116,000 in October. l!ni, to $64,000 in January, 1908. The object of a receiver is to preserve the property for the benefit of all interests." Mr. Fernald paid there was a floating debt oE 73o.0m and that there were mortgages on the property aggregating S7.O0O.00O.

NEW PHILLIPS. Week of Feb. 17. Vaudeville. GENNETT. Feb. 17 "Pair of Country Kids," (Matinee and night). Feb. 18 "Yankee Doodle Boy." Feb. 20 "Our New Minister." Feb. 21 Stetson's "Uncle Tom's Cabin." (Matinee ana Night.) . "Our New Minister." Denniuti Thompson and Geo. W. Ryder's comedy of Hard.-iorabblo life, "Our Xew Minister," which conies to the Gennett on Thursday, Feb. 20, ought to prove a big theatrical success. It's success on its first visit was of such nature, that those, who did not. attend will now want to do so. Manager Swisher knows a good thing wb.cn he sees it and lost no time in bobking a return engagement which

is indicated by the advance notices, there will be no disappointment. This is an act that will appeal to ail, old and young alike, for there is none so blase that he does not enjoy the tricks of the members of the animal kingdom. Apparently the remainder of the program is such as to make it a well balanced and pleasing one. Wednesday there will be a souvenir matinee, at which each lady receives a remembrance, and on Saturday the ma'iuee is a special one tor the children. Friday night the amateurs are invited to appear as usual.

"A Pair of Country Kids." We have all enjoyed Uncle Josh and Pi and all the other old and ancient crop of country characters who come to the city to get buncoed and incidentally to purchase a carpet sack full of hay from a gentleman in a large checkered suit and a fierce black mustache. These scenes and charac-

Ferhaps at no other place was there prealer interest in the announcement that the Chicago, Cincinnati and Louisville railroad had gone into the bands of a receiver than in Richmond, v.hich is the home of tnis railroad and where for some years the general offices were located. The C C. and L originally the C R. and M.. was the outgrowth of u desire by the citizens of Kichmond to escape the local monop

oly of the Pennsylvania Railroad company and in order to induce the promoters to put the road through, a subtidy of $l2r,000 was voted here, after long, hard fight. Nearly every township along the route in Wayne icounty voted aid to the line. Richmond residents have counted their money voted In the way of a subsidy veil spent, as "The Short Line" has delivered the city from the hands of the Pennsylvania, which up to that time was In full control of the local field, and also the Adams Express company, was without competition until the, new rond was built.

takes nlace on the above named date. Throughout, this beautiful story of lifo in the village of Hardscrabble run laughter, pathos and good deeds, and from these varigated strands the authors have woven a tapestry of humor, love and kindness, that touch the heart and eye alike, and the characters stand out with startling fidelity to life.

MAGNIFICENT EMBROIDERY DISPLAY.

The show windows of Lee B. Nusbaum's store present the most elabo

rate and artistic display of embroideries ever shown in Richmond. The entire front is a "Study in White." and is a masterpiece of the decorator's art. as worked out by Mr. Chas. Igleman. This stupendous purchase of fine embroideries will go on sale next Tuesday morning and it will be well worth a rip down town to see this magnificent display and the prices named will make the temptation to attend the sale irresistible on the part of the ladies.

"The Yankee Doodle Boy." The company presenting Powell & Cohan's comedy drama with music, "Bud 1 licks, The Yankee Doodle Boy", which conies to the Gennett Tuesday night, is unusually slroi.g vocally. Each principal is a soloist. The result fs a singing show of merit. There are len song hits introduced throughout, the action of the play and each, one is of the "whistling" kind. Special attention has also been given the scenic mounting. The three acts are carried complete no house scenery being "utilized. In every respect the production is noteworthy.

tors have become as familiar to us as "Uncle Tom's Cabin." It is therefore with pleasure that Manager Swisher announces the coming of what is said

to be an entirely new rural play that is a novelty and with its principal interest in a pair of up-to-date country youngsters who manage to present an evening of lively amusement.

"Uncle Tom's Cabin." Perhaps there never has been so lavish and adequate a production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" as that which Wni. Kibble will offer amusement lovers next Friday, matinee and night at the Gennett. The scenes, which are

large enough to fill the most spacious stage, could not easily be Improved. Those representing the Ohio River in

winter, the rocky pass in which Geo. Harris protects his family, the St. Clair plantation, the levee at New Orleans, the cotton fields in full bloom and the "Celestial City" are all notable efforts, and the stage perspec

tive is so deep that the effect is exceptionally pleasing. The company is said to be worthy of its environment. Frank Lee. minstrel star, offers an excellent study of "Uncle Tom."

Washington, Feb. 13 "I predict that the Panama Canal will be an absolute failure if made with six locks and will never meet the demands of commerce," said Senator Tellei" in speaking this afternoon on the item carried in the Urgent Deficiency bill appropriating $12,000,000 for continuing work on this waterway.

"It is one hundred times more risky

than a sea level canal," said Mr. Tell, er. "It may cost a little less, but not much, when completed. I do not believe there is an engineer in this country who thinks the canal can be built for $300,000,000. If it is finished for $500,000,000 and proves to bo a good and successful canal, it will disappoint the best engineers in the world. Some of you will live to see the present Panama Canal abandoned just as some of you will live to see a sea level canal successfully completed and capable of accommodating the world's commerce." Senator Culbertson started the discussion by calling attention to the assurance given iu 1905 that no part of

the Canal appropriation should be used for publicity work. Since then, he said, the work of publicity had gone further than before and even a newspaper has been established to disseminate information. Senator Culbertson saifl the sameman. Joseph B. Bishop, who managed the Publicity Bureau, is now in charge of the Canal Record. He has simply been shifted from the United States to the Canal Zone and his duties enlarged. Senator Bacon thought that after Congress had expressed its disapprov-

New Paris, Feb. 15 The local lodge of 'Odd Fellows held a roll call meeting this week at which out of a membership of one hundred and ten, a little over half were present. The evening was one of much pleasure. Speeches were made by the Rev. J. U. "Williams of New Castle, E. R. Clark and others. Afterwards the third degree was conferred. At the close of the meeting a special committee

served the order to an elegant threecourse luncheon.

Two For Five. One day Thomas Bailey Aldrich, the distinguished author, happened to saunter into an auction room while a sale of rare editions, old manuscript and autographs was going on. The auctioneer, holding in his hands a bundle of letters, said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I have here two autographs which rrere written by a man named Thomas Bailey Aldrich. I shall now start them for you at the price of two for 5 cents." No further bids were made, and they were sold for that sum. Mr. Aldrich in speaking of the Incident afterward to a friend said. "I wouldn't have cared at all if they had gone for 5 cents each, but 'two for 5' reminded me very forcibly of little apples."

The Twllurfct Of Life. The muscles of the stomach in old affe arc not as Etron? or active as in youth and in consequence old people are very subject to constipation and Indigestion. Many seldom have a bowel movement without artificial aid. Many. at"o. have unpleasant eructations or gras from the stomach after eaticsr. AU this can be avoided by the use of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which permanently reeulates the bowels so that pa&sasres come naturally, and so strengthens the stomach that food fs digested without discomfort. Druggists sell it at 50 cents or SI a large bottle.
