Arnold Opera Company Disbands
After Singing "Fra Diavolo."
The Arnold opera company disbanded
after singing "Fra Diavrlo." a', the Grand
opera house Saturday night.
Dan Young, the comedian, was the own
er. The company had been in hard luck
for some time and. after the Topeka en
gagement it was found to be impossible
to continue and the company disbanded.
J. J. Raffael and Miss Ada Palmer Walk
er will join the Castle Square opera com
pany and other members will join other
opera companies. The last appearance of
the company was perhaps the best of the
engagement. W. C. Roberts, the heavy
bass singer who took the part of one of
the brigands Saturday night, has been
singing in opera for 15 years. His bass
attracted attention even in the chorus and
it was fortunate that he was cast in the
closing bill for one of the heavier parts
so that the audience might appreciate his
ability.
The sextette at the close of the next
to the last act, In which Mr. Raffael, Mr.
Roberts, Mr. Cluzetti and Miss Palmer
participated won several recalls. Mr. Raf
fael appears to good advantage in Fra
Diavolo. It was a sorry and dejected
appearing crowd seen behind the scenes
between acts. The members of the com
pany realized that the end had come.
They sat around on boxes and in the
dressing rooms, their painted faces serv
ing only to heighten the feeling of de
jection. "It s all over," said a member of the
chorus.
"Better the end than this awful sus
pense concerning last week's salary," re
joined her companion.
The audience did not know that all par
ticipants in the rollicking opera had lost
their positions and were hundreds of
miles from home and friends. It is the
business of the actor not to let the people
know how he feels.
Weather is Uncertain.
The highs and lows are about to mix
and change the present engagement of
pleasant weather In Kansas. Just what
the elements will do the weather men do
not know but are doubtful whether the
balmy weather will continue. Sunday the
maximum temperature was 81. The mini
mum was 50. Today the minimum was 53
and the temperature at 11 o'clock 68. The
wind has at last changed from the south
to southwest and has been blowing about
six miles an hour. The forecast today is
"party cloudy tonight and Tuesday with
possibly showers south portion. Cooler
Tuesday and southeast portion tonight."

CRITICISES M'KINLEY.
National President of Christian Young
People's Union Talks In Topeka.
Sunday afternoon an enthusiastic
meeting was held in the First Presby
terian church under the auspices of the
Good Citizenship Federation, and Miss
Eva Marshall Shontz, of Chicago, deliv
ered an address on the subject "Our Na
tion in Slavery Young People to the
Rescue" For one full hour the audience
listened attentively, and the speaker was
frequently interrupted by appiause. Miss
Shontz is the president of the American
Young People's Christian Temperance
Union. She is the successor of the late
Frances E. Willard, whom she favors to
a remarkable degree. Miss Shontz com
menced her address with the touching
story of "Old Soapy," and vividly pic
tured the wretchedness and misery that
exists in thousands of drunkards' home
all over our nation. In speaking of the
army canteen, she said:
"When the nefarious canteen first ap
peared In our army during the late war
with Spain, the ministers of this nation,
the mothers of this nation and the
churches of this nation petitioned con
gress to take it away from our soldier
boys, and congress heard their appeal
and nobly responded, passing a law pro
hibiting the canteen: and then now
good people, don't get angry and then
Attorney General Griggs wrote an opin
ion for the war department nullifying
that law. O, give us a man as commander-in-chief
of our army who will en
force the will of the people and the con
gress of this nation and protect our sol
dier boys."
She urged that the people should vote
for only thoroughly good men for offi
cial positions, especially in local poll
tics. She said: "If your party nomi
nates a man for district Judge or county
attorney who confederates with the
jointists and is against the enforcement
of your prohibitory law, vote for the
other candidate who will do his sworn
duty.
"Our organization," she said, "is a po
litical organization; but it is decidedly
nonpartisan. We are striving to get a
million voters to pledge themselves to
vote only for a man for president who is
the candidate of a political party in
whose national platform is a prohibition
plank. When we get a million voters
to thus stand together the greatest po
litical parties will hear us and accede
to our demands. If they do not, then
a convention will be called and dele
gates sent to it. and that convention will
determine what will be done, whether the
million votes will be swung to the old
Prohibition party or whether a new
party will be organized. Nobody knows
what will be the result when that con
vention meets, if it dots meet. We start
ed out to get a million votes for this
election, but we were not well enough
organized ,and only got something over
a third that number. We will get the
million pledged votes, though, in four
years from now."
ROCK ISLAND OFFICIALS

Road's Building Into Denver.
Directors and officials of the Chicago,
Rock Island & Pacific system arrived

train on the regular annual tour of in
spection of the lines. They have been

Always Took Food Before Pleading'.
Dr. Brunton, one of the most famous
physicians of London, tells of a patient
of his who was a noted banister an 1
who always took a full dose of cod liv. r
oil before pleading a case. This barris
ter did not believe in stimulants nr. I
never used them while engaged in men
tal labor. Yet he always took his do,e
of cod liver oil because he said it ren
dered his mind muni more active. With
out doubt cod liver oil Is a most re
markable food, especially when partly
digested as it is in Scott's Emulsion. It
certainly strengthens the memory and
feeds and builds up the whole nervous
system tq a most remarkable degree.
