RODGERS COHTIUES HIS RECORD FLIGHT Announces Intention to Fly from Kansas City to Fort Worth, Texas.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. 13 While tnacbinists gave his big aeroplane a thorough overhauling, C. I'. Rodgers rested here Thursday and tried to accustom himself to walking once more upon mother earth. Rodgers is now within a hour's ride of his half way point on his trip across the continent. The aviator expects to leave Ovlngton park early Friday morning for Fort Worth, Texas. "I will follow the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railroad to Fort Worth," Rodgers said. "Through the mountains I will follow the Southern Pacific. My machine is in good condition and I am getting better at handling it every day. I will reach the west coast in record time I regret not winning the $50,000 offered by Wm. R. Hearst, the time limit on which expired yesterday, but I am glad Mr. Hearst tempted me to make the trip." Amusements THY NEIGHBOR'S WIFE. Arthur Byron is the principal member of Daniel Frohman's New York Lyceum Theater company which will be seen in the comedy success "Thy Neighbor' Wire" at the Gennett Thursday, Oct. 1!). This play has made a positive hit and is one of the merriest plays produced in years. Mr. Frohman says it is the best comedy he ever produced. Regarding Mr. Byron. He has appeared in support of many stars and has starred himself. Last season he had a long engagement with Maude Adams in New York at the . Knickerbocker theater. He played the part of Patou, the dog, in "Chantecler," originally played in Paris by Coquelin. Mr. Byron had previously been Miss Adams' leading man. The actor cast for the Owl was taken ill one night and Mr. Byron was asked to play the role. As the Owl scene Is In the second act in which Patou, the dog, does x not appear, it was an easy matter for Mr. Byron to don the oostume of the Owl and go through the part, but it left him very little time in which to change back to the make-up of the dog for the third act. In the haste of making the change In dress, Mr. Byron picked up the Owl's head and put it on and went on the stage with the body of a dog and the head of an owl. He was discovered in this hybred state by the stage manager as he was about to make his entrance. There followed several minutes of extemporaneous dialogue and laughter by the actors, while Mr. Byron ran into his dressing room and changed. "BABY MINE." Announcement is made that the eat sale for the performance of "Baby Mine" at the Gennett on Saturday, Oct. 14, matinee and night, will open on Thursday at the Murray theater box office. The present theatrical season will bring no greater laugh producer to Richmond than "Baby Mine," which ran for one solid year at Daly's theater. New York, and which is conceded by press, public and managers to be the biggest comedy success ever known. "Baby Mine" Is now in its second year in London, at the Vaudeville theater, and will aeon encircle the globe with laughter with performances in Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Rome, St. Petersburg, Australia, South America and Japan. William A. Brady. Ltd., under whose direction the tour is given, will bring an exceptional company of clever players SHE HAD CONSTANT PAIN Until Relieved by Lydia E. Pinkbsra's Vegetable Compound.

The above is only one of the thousands of grateful letters which aro constantly beng received by the Plnkham Medicine Company of Lynn, 1 Mass., which prove beyond a doubt that llflrdia E. Piukham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, , metually does cure these obstinate dis- ! eases of women, and that every such ! Buffering woman owes it to herself to at least give Lydia E.

AT THE MURRAY. When one stops to consider the woes and worries of the man who has to direct a big vaudeville circuit it is not to be wondered at that he frequently pads out with some of the inane acts that perodically crop out. It is therefore a pleasing surprise to have a bill of such excellence as that which was sprung at the Murray. A better acrobatic act than that of the eight Bedouin Arabs was never seen on the local vaudeville stage and it would not be exaggerating very much to say that there are none as good. The exhibitions of the strength, the enders of pyramid building, the spinning, whirling somersault feats of these lithe, agile, muscular fellows deserve the extravagant vocabulary of a circus press agent to do them justice. They are such even as to make the palms of the most passe itch with the desire to applaud. But best of all is the spirit with which they work. There is such a heartiness of will, such an air of enjoying the thing for its own sake that one is almost led to imagine himself transported into the midst of an Arabian desert where he has stumbled upon the sports of a group of its untamed deizens. Wanted Sewing-woman to work on Ladies' Coats and Suits at Knollenberg's Store. PLA YS AND PLA YERS A Berlin hit called "The Lady in Red," is to be imported to this country.

Before he leaves London for this country, Harry Lauder will have a fine advertisement for his tour in the shape of a "command" performance before the British Royal family. Several leading theaters in New York have raised the price of seats for their Saturday evening performances to $2.50, and it is expected that other houses will soon follow the example. Paul Wilstach, author of the dramatic version of "Thais," has written a play for Tim Murphy called "The Poor Rich," which Mr. Murphy will make his starring vehicle about the middle of November. George Bronson Howard, author of "Snobs," that is now current at the Hudson theater, New York, has completed a new play, which is to be used by Blanche Bates at the end of her run in "Nobody's Widow," under Belasco's management. Th Music Soothed Him. In his book "My Life's Pilgrimage" Thomas Catling gives an interesting glimpse of Gladstone in the Midlothian campaign of 1SS0: I happened to meet an organist from Edinburgh, who told me that In the throes of that electoral fight Mr. Gladstone soothed ,and steadied himself with music. Having arranged a time for the organ practice, he was provided with a key, by means of which he could enter the church quite privately. Silently and alone he would sit in one of the pews with his forebead resting on his hands while the organist played over a number of familiar and Impressive hymn tunes. The listener neither looked up nor spoke until the hour compelled him to more. Then, with a "Thank you," he passed out to throw himself again Into the bustling political contest. Cruel Retort.

WOULD HAVE BEEN PAID m FAVORS Illinois Solon Admits He Was Offered Reward to Vote for Lorimer.

(National News Association) CHICAGO, Qct. 13. Former State Representative Henry A. Shepard, of Jerseyville, Ills., admitted receiving offers of political patronage in return for his vote for Wm. Lorimer for United States senator when questioned today by the senate committee, which is investigating the Lorimer scandal. Sheard was the first witness called. Others who were in the court room, ready to testify, were Rep. Harry E. Whelan of Rock Island; Rep. L. J. Pierson, of Wilmette and State Senator E. J. Glackin, of Chicago. Shepard declared on the witness stand that he was promised by Senator Lorimer that neither of two of his most bitter political enemies would be appointed as postmaster at Jerseyville, Ills. In return for this promise, he voted for Lorimer, he said. He denied having received any money for his vote. Senator Lorimer was again in the court room when the day's session of the investigation began. He was surrounded by a number of his close friends. The senator watches the testimony of each witness very closely, and often aids his attorneys by suggesting questions. GRISTLE BREAD. . A Favorite In Norway and In Part of Germany. "What is gristle bread? Why, that," said. a baker, "is a kind of bread that is peculiar to Norway and to some parts of Germany. In Norway it has been made for many years, and here there are bakeries in which it is made for Norwegian patrons who still prefer it wherever they may be. "In making gristle bread the loaves when first formed up from the dough are laid on boards and put through an extra heated oven in which there is baked on them an outer crust or skin the gristle. Then the loaves are turn ed over and put through the oveD again, so that the gristle may be baked all over them. This quick oven make? only that outer crust on the loaves which are then placed in another over for theirt final complete baking. "Originally in Norway gristle breat was made of rye flour only. In this--country there was a demand for i handsomer and larger loaf, and wheai flour was mixed with the rye, as hasnow to some extent come to be the cus torn in Norway also. Here the pro portions now used are about half and half, the result being a bigger loaf ol the same weight as one of all rye. "Gristle bread costs more than ordinary bread because of the greater time and labor required in making it.'' New York Sun. His Equivocal Answer. The blushing girl buttonholed her Hushed fiance. "Well, Egbert," she murmured, "did papa give his consent?" Egbert drew himself up stiffly. "He did not commit himself either way," he responded. "Then are we or aren't we engaged. Egby?" "I do not know," answered Egby. still stiffly. "But what happened?" "This," said Egby more stiffly than ever. "I went in and said: 'Sir, I wish to marry your daughter. Have I your consent?' He turned and looked at me a minute, then he grew red in the face, then he grabbed me, then he lift ed me up, then he threw me over the banisters. But whether he is in favor of our engagement or not, Ethelbrite, he did not say." Beginning of the Drama. The theater in the only sense that is worth considering was born in Athens. Both tragedy and comedy spring from feasts in honor of Bacchus, and as the Jests and frolics were found to be out of place when introduced into graver scenes a separate province the true drama was formed and comedy arose. The father of the Greek comedy was Aristophanes, who had lots of fun lampooning the public men of Athens. The creator of Greek tragedy was Aeschylus, born B. C. 525. In sublimity Aeschylus has nev er been surpassed. He is to the drama what Phidias and Michelangelo arc to art New York American. The Irony of Pats. "What is your understanding of the irony of fate?" asked the bashful young man. "Well." the beautiful girl replied, "if two fellows should fight over me and I shouldn't get into the papers I should think that was about it" Chicago Record-Herald. Mrs. Taft's epigrams are said to be the joy of Washington society. Her latest was on the subject of beauty. "She is beautiful but. not at all accomplished," a woman told Mrs. Taft of a western matron. "My dear," Mrs. Taft answered, "there is no accomplishment more difficult than to be beautiful."
