That prt of the public which has been looking for 'something better" in moving pictures, will have a most wonderful chance to nee the best. All this week of April 10th, the Arcade theater will be handled by the Lyceum Hio-Scenograph company. This company brings a stock of fiinis costing over $3000, chosen with care from the best of tho entire world's markets. There is everything from beautiful scenery and high class dramatics to laugh provoking comedies of the old fuFhio:icd kind. Such films as "The Iast Days of Pompeii." "Hen Hur," and "Nero or the Hurning of Uoino" are marvels of . photography. The entire programme changes dally. There will be from seven to ten picture in a- single show. The Lyceum lecturer will explain the films. Truly this is a treat for everyone at prices absurdly low. Watch this paper daily for advertisements of the day's program. At the Murray. Hob Fitzsiniinons, one of the most noble gladiators the prize ring has ever known, is in the city. Robert la accompanied to Kichby his wife, who is a most charming woman, and who appears with him on the stae In a sketch. They will play at the Murray all this week. Fitzsiniinons needs no introduction to tho sport loving public, as he is probably one of the best Known fighters in the world today. He is also one of the most popular. Few if any of the bozers in the country have ever held the high esteem of the public like Fitz and there Is a reason. He is as honest as the day is long and during his career In the squarod circle was never guilty nor even suspected of being guilty of a shady transaction or anything that would bring discredit to his profession. If all fighters and boxers were as honorable as lanky Hob, the pro fesslon would stand higher than it does. Kelffer and Hrandel in an act which they introduce as the "Sole Savers" are sure to make a hit as is Arthur Klghy. the minstrel. Frances Wood with a novelty hoop rolling act comes well recommended as an artist of great ability. Newlyweds and Their Baby. "The Newlyweds and Their Ha by." the i0 ,4 people music show that com es to the Oennctt Thursday, April 20, is composed of the usual ingredients only more so. girls prettier than usual, songs that beat all, stage effects uncommonly elaborate, even in this day and age. a stage baby, Jimmy Rosen, more canny or uncanny than even little Nemo: Oerman dialect com edians with more dialect than ever, and motion swifter and more dizzy than any previous records. The performers make their entrances and exits at furious rate of speed, and even the colored lights that are flashed upon them twinkle like the electric signs of New York during the Hudson-Fulton celebration. There Is les repose in the performance than in the tip of a terrier's tale. The story behind all this is elaborated, as has been explained before, from t'.ie famous cartoons familiar to students of the Sunday comics, which portray the ludicruos behavior of the Newlyweds with their preposterous child. Napoleon. Ixm? Hayes is to be making himself resemble an imiossiblo original and Oeorge I. Mnrpliy the character of the waiter Is invaluable in his fun-making. His "Operatic Solution" with a male chorus is excellent foolishness. Of the dozufi and more musical numbers and dancing specialties that make up the major part of the entertainment the " Boogie-Hoo" sung by a chorus of the "broiler" variety, and led by the agile and spirited Kva Marsh, takes I first place, though "My Sweitzer Bride" and "Mr. Jigger" also showoriginality and quaintness highly entertaining. Countess Olga von Hatzfeldt plays and decidedly looks the part of "Mrs. Newlywed" to perfection. CARD OF THANKS.

If H Wr Blggsr This Spider Would B a Real Psril. Strangely enough, the one really dangerous spider on the American continent Is small, obscure and practically unknown to popular or Journalistic hysteria. Latrodectus mactans is Its scientific name. It is about the size of a large pea. black with a red spot on the back a useful danger signal and spins a small web In outhouses or around wood piles. So far as Is known. Its poison is the most virulent and powerful, drop for drop, secreted by any living creature. Cobra virus, In the minute quantity which the latrodectus' glands contain, would probably have no appreciable effect upon rcan, whereas the tiny spider's venom, in the volume Injected by the cobra's stroke, would slay a herd of elephants. Were this little known crawler as large as the common black hunting spider of our gardens and lawns its bite would be almost Invariably fatal. Happily the "red spot'" fangs, being small and weak, can with difficulty penetrate the skin and are able to inject venom in dangerous quantity only when the bite Is inflicted upon some tender skinned portion of the body. Nevertheless fatalities consequent upon the bite of this insect are sufficiently well attested to take rank as established scientific facts.

J. F. Grauel is pastor. Mr. I'eabody's subject in the afternoon was "Alt Kxposure of Christian Science;" in the evening, "Kddyism, the Mask Torn Off." Mr. Pea body said in part: "I have asked R. Stanhope Kasterday, of the Kddy publicity bureau to be present. I sent him a registered letter and if he is here 1 want him to be free to ask me any questions that have any! bearing on the subject matter of my discussion. If Mr. Kasterday is here I shall propound certain questions to him and I predict in advance that he will not answer. I have asked these questions of Chirstian Scientists from Boston to San Francisco and back again to Boston without receiving any answer. A year ago I delivered this address at Greensburg. Mr. Easterday was in the audience and did not disclose his presence. I wish somebody would have the manliness or womanliness to call me to account if anything I say is not true." If Mr. Kasterday wa present he did not choose to respond. "This is the first time I have spoken of Mrs. Kddy since her death, and there could be no conceivable excuse for detailing the private life of any woman, but if she is sponsor of a system of lies, a system that is a fraud and a sham, that has reached out over the land and seeks to govern other lives, I conceive it to be the duty of a man to state the facts frankly if he knows them. No Sympathy for Sponsor. "For Mrs. Kddy who has sacrificed on the altar of greed the lives of God knows how many children, there is no sympathy in my heart and there shall be no scrap of charity in my speech. She was the inventor and proprietor of the greatest get-rich-quick scheme ever conceived. Her business converted the religious feelings into cash and has extorted large sums of money from credulous people for healing them of something that was not the matter with them. After she was sixty-five years ola she accumulated a fortune of over J3.000.000. She has made money out of religious emotions of mankind. Nobody ever entered Christian Science because of his intelligence, but in spite of it. There are now no preachers in Christian Sci ence. Thougn there were until a few years ago. Mrs. Eddy stopped them because they did not talk about her exclusively. The services are now conducted by so-called first and second readers with alternate passages from the Bible and from Mrs. Eddy's book. "Arthur G. Frisbie who was first reader of a Christian Science church in Cleveland, is now out of it, as everybody who is intelligent and honest gets out of it in course of time. He said he could not find any relation between the Bible passages he was reading and the passages from Mrs. Eddy's book that the second reader was reading. "Mark Twain in a letter to me three or four years ago, said he was not combating Christian Science, that he had merely written the articles to please himself. 'I have not,' he said, 'a thing in the world against it. butam making fun of that shameless old swindle, Mother Eddy. At bottom I take a delight in seeing the human race make an ass of- itself, as it always has done. It distresses me to hear you talk about sanity to men. They have never shown any sanity. See them get down and worship that old woman.' Attacks Healing Methods. "Mrs. Eddy is the mother and promoter of the new.old witchcraft, malicious animal magnetism. Of all the evils of this imposture the greatest is that upon the lives and sufferings of children. Mothers permit their chil dren to suffer and die without the turning of a hand to save; without doing anything except to ask a fool man or a jfool woman to come in and say passages to himself or herself from Mrs. Eddy's book.

Peter narvey. the friend and biographer of Daniel Webster, was a large man with a small voice and that pomposity of manner that many very diffident men possess. Above everything he valued and prided himself upon his friendship with the "great expounder." The first year of the war between the states he went to Washington and on his return was asked bow he liked President Lincoln. "Well." he said. "Mr. Lincoln is a very singular man. I went on to see him and told him that I had been an intimate personal friend of Daniel Webster: that I had talked with him so much on the affairs of the country that I felt perfectly confident I could tell him exactly what Mr. Webster would advise in the present crisis, and thereupon I talked to Linccn for two solid hours, telling him Just what he should do and what he should not do, and, will you believe it. sir. when I got through alNMr. Lincoln said was. as he clapped his hand on my leg.

"What do you mean." he at length secrted. "by charging me $2." for a two weeks' treatment when you charged Handerson only $10 for a treatment extending over the same length of time?" "If you mean that I am not Impar tlal in my charges." retorted the bris tling doctor. "1 want you to distinctly understand that you have absolutely no foundation for your Insinuation. I ordered Handerson to eat three square meals a day. while I forbade you to eat more thau one light lunch. Now. sir. if you will add the cost of Hander son's meals to my charge of $10 and compare the result with the cost of your meals plus my charge of $23 you will obtain such proof of my equitable ness that you. if you are a man. will humbly apologize to me for your unkind and unwarranted attack."

EXHAUSTION OF SOIL IN AMERICA

On Contrary It Is Becoming! More Productive, Says Scc'y Wilson. By RODERICK CLIFFORD Washington. April 8. For some time Secretary of the Department of Agriculture, James Wilson has been receiving inquiries from farmers, scientific societies, and others asking whether the soil of the United States is not being rapidly exhausted by constant cultivation and by the neglect to apply fertilizers, as is generally done in European countries. To all these inquiries, Mr. Wilsou has submitted statistics for the past, fewyears, which to his mind, indicates that the soil of the United States is not being exhausted in the least, but on the contrary is increasing in productiveness. Mr. Wilson is of the opinion that the cause of these inquiries is brought about by the fact that lately there has been a great deal said of abandoned farm lands in the East, and South. In some quarters this has produced the impression that the United States will ultimately become dependent upon other countries for its food supply. What Experts Say. According to experts of the De partment who have made a study of the soil in various parts of the coun try, there is no cause for such anxiety at lcsent. It is admitted, however, that sometime along in the dim future the soil in some of the older states may become worn out, but it is said there is no danger whatever that this country will have to buy its food supply abroad for ages to come. The reason for abandoned farms, it is said, is due to the fact that "land robbers" exhaust the soil for their own financial gain. These men do not allow their fields to rest, working the farms until the soil becomes worthless for production, and then selling the land Another reason advanced by the department is that farms are worn out through the Ignorance of their owners. Farms, like human beingjs, need rest or changes in order to become prolific. This to agricultural scientists means the rotation of crops. Until very recently, numbers ot larmers did not know what was meant by a rotation of crops. Through the Department of Agricultre, however, it is generally understood throughout the country now, and is being practiced by a large per cent of the rural population. Through the Department, public schools, colleges of agriculture and the publicity avenues of the Department of Agriculture, farmers are be ing instructed in the best means ot conducting their farms. Instructions are given the farmers in the rudiments of agriculture, revealing the mysteries of nature and the character antf habits of "various forms of plant life.

tion show the best means the farmer can apply to get the most profit out of his farm, aud at the same time preserve the fertility of the soil. Has Been Demonstrated. The ability of the soil under scientific management and cultivation to maintain its strength and usefulness.

and to produce crops at a rate of increase equal to or greater than the normal increase of population, has been demonstrated time and time agaiu by the Department of Agriculture, by its experiment stations in various parts of the United States. Secretary Wilson shows that there: has been almost constant increase in j the average production, per acre, of all the principal crops in the United j States iluring the last twenty years.1 Not all the states make this showing! for all varieties of crops, but it is I particularly noticeable in the staple crops. In corn. the increase this twenty year period has been at a rate very nearly to that of the popu lation of the states, the yield of wheat ; per acre increased more rapidly than the population in twenty-two states, oats showed a much larger increase per acre than the population of sixteen states, re. twenty-one states, buskwheat. eighteen states, potatoes, fifteen states, and hay, twenty-five states. The increase of cotton, ac-! cording to the statistics used by Mr. Wilson, showed a total increase in excess of the population in only one state. Oklahoma. A like increase in tobacco was noted in Wisconsin. The failure of the cotton and tobacco crops to keep up with the increase in iopulation is due mainly to the disposition of the growers, and not to the condition of the soil. In the cotton and tobacco states there has been a general tendency to restrict the production of cotton and tobacco in order to boost the market price of these commodities. The production of cotton, however, is expected to show a tremendous increase shortly, because of experiments recently made by the Department of Agriculture in growing Egyptian- cotton in the Southwest. There is much prospect that irrigated lands can be found adaptable to the cotton crop. The climate is suitable. This class of cotton is in demand among Amer CHICHESTER S PILLS V'jC.
