AW ADVERTISEMENT
Which Proved & gain the Worth of the
Republican's Columns.
Somebody unknown caused to be in
serted in The Republican day before
yesterday an advertisement stating
that Charles Gittner, the bicycle man,
wanted to buy dogs in unlimited num
bers. As a matter of fact he has n.i
use for days but the advertisement has
not been without result. Like all ad
vertisements in The Republican it has
been read and since then Mr. Gittner
or his assistant has been busy telling
owners of dugs that a mistake has been
made.
Yesterday morning a woman called
at Mr. Gittner's shop. He hastened to
explain that he did not want any dogs.
The woman replied that f-he did. A
valuable dog had been stolen from her
on the day following the appearanc"
of the advertisement which seemed
to indicate to her that a sort1 of sec
ond hand dog store had been estab
lished and she thought that would be
a likely place to find the stolen dog.
Late in the afternoon two youns
women drove in front of Mr. Gittner's
place of business. He saw them but
being engaged and having his mind
mainly on dogs lie told his assistant
to tell the ladies that it was all a mis
take; he was not buying dogs
The women thought the assistant had
gone crazy. "Who said anything about
dogs?" one of them asked. They had
come to see about getting a bicycle re
paired. o

"JOHN HENRY."
Klaw & Erlinger's Latest Production
Opens in Philadelphia.
Klaw & Krlinget' spring production
this season will be George V. Hobart
and Edward E. Rose's new American
farce, "John Henry," in which Da.
Daly will play the title role. It will
receive its premiere in Philadelphia
May 11, ami, after two weeks in that
city will be presented at the Hetald
Sipiare theatre in New York for a r'ih,
opening Monday evening. May 25.
The foundation of the story of the
new laugh-maker is comic incidents
from Mr. Hobart's famous humoroim
sketches of the same title, which, pub
lished in four small volumes, have
made the record-breaking sale of 20.".,
000 conies.
The character of "John Henry" in
these books is unique and one entirely
new to light literature. His philoso
phy is that of the vigorous young M.cn
of the period. He always exprer:"
himself in original slang "remarka'-'j
for expressiveness and colloquial pi
cioancy," possessing the merit of the
"unexpected" in his humor and differ
ing materially from any funny type of
American life heretofore created by the
ci.mic writer, in that he represents a
high social plague and is surrounded
by such people in the experiences which
lie so facetiously describes in language
mainly unauthorized by the lexico
graphers, but without being coarse or
repellant.
Mr. Hobart and Mr. Rose have trans
lated "John Henry." with all his stro-.ig
individuality and merry revel in orig
inal extravagance of speech, to She
stage in an attractive story, into which
they have interwoven his most comic
adventures and the characters who
have most interested the hundreds of
thousands of readers who have laughed
to the limit of ( human endurance in
in their perusal of these sketches. This
role is one peculiarly suited to Mr.
Daly, who will make his first appear
ance in years in a comedy part out
side a musical production. In person
ality, natural drollery of speech and
stage methods he is exactly suited to it.
The stage story of "John Henry" will
be told in three acts, the scenes repre
senting the rotunda of the Manhattan
Hotel in New York City. Dove's Nest
villa, in Ruraldexe and the railrod sta
tion in this New York suburb. In
scenic equipment and costuming this
production will be exceptionally elab
orate. One of the scenes will be a dis
tinct r.ovdty and will represent a most
udvanced evidence of the progress of
American stagecraft.
Underlying the humor of "John
Henry" on the stage, there is a very
pleasing sentimental interest carried
by the hero, Clara J.. "Bunch" Jeffer
son, his chum, the real estate agent
and Alice Gray. The complications in
these love affairs involve "Uncle Peter"
Grant, Clara Js uncle, and William
Gray, Alice's uncle, a cotage in Rural
dene purchased by "Hunch" Jeffer.o-
for the Countess Veccio, an Italian
noblewoman, which John Henry claims
as his own to further his love affairs,
and a large selection of delightfully
contrasted funny characters. A "bur
glary." which represents John Henry
and "Bunch" Jefferson as bungling
amateur cracksmen, serves to introduce
an original scenic effect and one of the
most laughable incidents' seen on the
stage in a farce for many years.

CORRECT DRESS IN BUSINESS.
Young Man Should Dress Well nnl
Neatly, for It Impresses.
It has become an unwritten, but none
the less stringent, law that young men
shall dress well and neatly during bus'
r.esH hours. In many of the largest
banks and financial institutions none of
the clerks is permitted to go coat less,
and In the mercantile establishments
where salesmen are employed, "loud"
attire Is actually discouraged. The old
salesman gloried in his flamboyant
cravats and shirts, his diamonds, and
his peculiar clothes. His capital In
trade consisted of a flashy appearance,
vulgar stories, a constitution that
would stand Intoxicating liquor and an
unlimited amount of cheek.
He did not have to know anything
about the goods he sold, except in a
general way. He slapped men on the
back, took- them out to dinner, got
drunk with them and then booked their
order. The modern salesman is a well
educated, neatly dressed gentleman,
who knows all about the goods he sell.
He is never called upon to drink, h?
never needs to dine out, he trades on
honor and br,-ins and his customers
are men who only admire men who
knew as much, or more, than they do
about their business. Dress plays the
most important part in the game of
commerce, no less with the salesman
than it does with the manufacturer,
the mill man, the banker, or the finan
cial man. They all dress to impress
their fellow men favorably. C. M. Con

The Unconquerable Sonl.

Under the bludgeonlngs of chanc
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

ON FILTH IN FICTION.
Countess Tolstoi Says Much Low Life
ness Is Praised.
A discussion is raging in Russia on
the proper limits of realism in fiction.
The debate, says the Literary Digest,
had its origin in a letter written by thj
Countess Tolstoi to the Novoye Vre
mya in denunciation of a story by a
young novelist, Leonid Andrleff. re
garded as a Fort of follower of Gorky
and literary grandson of Tolstoi him
self. The countess resents both com
parisons, especially that to her husband.
"In the stories of Andrieft one feel.i
that the author relishes and derives
satisfaction from the vile phenomena
he depicts, and by this love for vice he
affects the undeveloped, morally un
washed reading public, which is as yet
uncapable of analyzing life and which
stupidly repeats the favorite but sense
less formula: 'But this Is reality!"
"Reality! But why should the read
er's eyes be turned on that particular
side of life? What an Immense hori
zon there Is before the really gifted
artlet! I cannot refrain from men
tioning the great work which was cre
ated under my own observation 'War
and Peace' In which the author pene
trated into so many hearts and com
pelled us all to love that which he
loved. For years thousands have been
attracted by this book, which throws
not the smallest shadow of corrupting
influence on the Fouls of its readers."

NO ACCOUNTING FOU TASTES.
Marie Cahill, an actress who haa
achieved some renown of late as an ex
ponent of roles in musical comedies, and
whose claim to distinction rests chiefly
upon the manner In which she sanjt
"Nancy Brown," has been cathechlseci
as to her likes and dislikes, and the
confessions of this young woman ar i
so perfectly up to date that they are
interesting, though many may not
agree with her on all things to which
she gives the authority of her r.ame.
When asked who were her favorite
composers, she unhesitatingly replied,
"Rossini and Cole and Johnson." Ask
ed to name her favorite humorist, Mlsa
Cahill said "George Ade." Mssrs. Cole
and Johnson wrote "Under the Bamboo
Tree." They are two colored gentlemen
of tilnt, who are furnishing the music
fur the Klaw - & Ealarger spectacles
and -keeping publishing houses busy
supplying the demands of variety act
ors w ho want that class of music. Mr.
Ade, as every one knows who reads the
Sunday Post, is a versatile writer of
fables in slang. As for Rossini, though
he wrote a "William Tell" overture and
some sacred music, we really don't see
why he should be dignified with a place
beside these brilliant young men. But
there Is no accounting for tastes.

Love Outgrown.
Quarrels come and the day turni
dark
Partings are, and the parted moan;
Death stalks by, and a body stark
Lies where love once claimed Its
own;
But the saddest thing Is a love out
grown. A word, and the quarrel's smooth
pgaln
A time, and the parted clasp and
kiss;
And even death Is eased of pain
By hop? of a reunited bliss
But a love outgrown is stript of this.
'Tis the living form and the heart Ions
dead;
'Tis the touching hands, yet the soul
alone;
'Tis the trick to walk bride garmented
With dust and ashes upon us thrown.
The saddest thing is a love outgrown!

TIIE EARTHBORN MOON.
Looking back through the rnlsts of
time we see the moon ever drawing
nearer and nearer to the earth. Our
satellite now revolves at a distance of
240,000 miles, but there was a time
when that distance was no more than
200,000 miles. There was a time mil
lions of years ago, no doubt, when the
moon was but 100,000 miles away and
as we look further and further back we
see the moon was ever drawing closer
and closer to the earth, until at last
we discern the critical period in earth
moon history when our globe
was spinnintr round In a ptTiod of
about five or six hours. The moon, In
stead of revolving where we now find
it. was then actually close to the earth:
earlier still it was. In fact, touching
our globe, and the moon and the earth
were revolving each around the other,
like a foot ball and a tennis ball act
ually fastened together.
It is Impossible to resist taking one.
step further. We know that the earth
was, at that early period, a soft molten
mass of matter, spinning round rap
Idly. The speed seems to have been si
great that a rupture took place, a por
tion of the molten matter broke away
from the parent globe, and the frag
ments coalesced Into a small glob-.
That the moon was thus born of our
:arth uncounted millions of years ago
Is the lesson which mathematics de
clares It learns from the murmur of the

You may have a friend who will die
for you, but you have none who will

If troubled with this distressing, ailment, watch for the first indication of
an attack; as soon as you feel it coming on take three of Chamberlain's Stom
ach and Liver Tablets and the attack may be warded off.
Mr. Geo. E. Wrijcht, of New London, New York, says: "For several yeare my wife was troubled with what
physicians called sick headache of a very severe character. She doctored with several eminent physicians and at a
great expense, only to grow worse until she was unable to do any kind of work. About a year ago she began taking
Chamberlain's Stomach .nd Liver Tablets and today weighs more than she ever did before and is real well." He has
since recommended these Tablets to several of his neighbors, who are enthusiastic in their pnise of the remedy. Sold

BURMAH S ODD SHRINES.
Caves Beneath a Fortress and a Tem
ple on Top of a Balancing Rock.
Eurmah doubtless can offer the odd
est places of worship to be fovmd any
where in the world. Some miles ont of
Maulmeln, in the middle of a great
plain, stands a lone rock so peculiar in
form as never to be forgotttn when
once seen. Ages ago- the cavc-s which
honeycomb this fortress were trans
formed from the habitats of bat and
wild animals into places for devotions.
Thousands of Images of Buddha are
carved upon the walla and in every
chamber bronze, stone or wooden god
are standing, sitting or reclining in end
less, silence, writes Jessie Acgerman !:
the May Housekeeper. No one can com
pute how many millions of f-et have
pressed the earthen floors of these sac
red caverns. Almost as remarkable Is
a Burmese shrine built by a rich tnan
as an offering to his favorite god. This
was erected on the very apx of a
"balancing rock" so formidable in ap
pearance as to strike terror to the
heart before one can carry out the
resolution to make the difficult ascent.
The material was transported to the
rock on the backs of men and pulled
to the top with hand power by means
of a rope. To reach the top requires
stout limbs and steady nerves'. Tiny
steps have been cut in an almost per
pendicular wall and a slip means a fall
to certain injury and perhaps death.
The difficulties of erecting a place of
worship have given no end of anxiety
to the well Intentioned who have the
Interests of a community at heart.
Sometimes it Is as difficult to obtain
the material as it Is to raise th' money
with which to pay for it. In North
Queensland the problem Is: " What will
withstand the ravages of the white ant
pest? Every kind of wood has been
tried in vain. Again and again have
the little white ants destroyed fine
churches, razing them to the ground.
As a last resort the good people d:
cided to use corrugated Iron. This ma
terial has proved satisfactory so far
as resisting the attacks of the Insects
is concerned, but it has one decided

THE AMERICAN-MEXICAN RAIL-
WAY.
An important meeting of the com
mittee appointed to arrange for the
raising of $20,000 to enable a bond Issue,
for the construction and equipment of
the Tucson division of the American
Mexican Pacific railroad, to be placed
before the English capitalists for sale,
was held Wednesday afternoon in the
chamber of commerce rooms, says the
Tucson Citizen.
The entire committee was present,
except General Manning, who was un
able to attend. The finance committee,
having reported that, practically, all of
the money had been subscribed, the ex
ecutive committee took up the matter
of detail leading up to and expending
of the money.
After a great deal of discussion, on
motion of B. M. Jacobs, it was resolved
that no part of the subscribed money
be expended until direct communica
tion was had with the English deben
ture company, and the obtaining from
them their opinion as to the probable
result Of fforing of the bonds for sale.
A sub-committee, consisting of B. M.
Jacobs, Albert Steinfield and M. P.
Freeman was appointed to communi
cate with the debenture people, asking
a reply by cablegram.
This answer should be here within
two weeks, during which time the sub
scription list will be completed, when
active work leading up to the offering
of the bonds will be prosecuted if the
reply be favorable.
H. E. Cooke, promoter of the American-Mexican
Pacific railroad, will
leave this evening for California, hav
ing completed his part of the work on
the new project. The remainder of the
work as to the handling of the finances
will be left to the board of directors,
which will be elected at a meeting held

another report of the story to the effect
that the event occurred a day or two
since. However, no further light

made of the first Mexican caught in the

scene of the hanging being at the
further end of the mountains and near
Patagonia, it is probable a coroner's
Inquiry was Instituted by Santa Cruz

was reported to have served a term in
the county Jail here and believed to
have been one of the prisoners who
broke jail here about six or eight years
ago when quite a number of prisoners
gained their liberty by digging through
the walls under the cells, having first
sawed through the floor. Nearly all of
the prisoners were recaptured, but the

THE SICK CHILD.
He for whom the world was made
Cannot lift his heavy head.
All Its pretty curls puffed out.
Burnt with fevers, parched wilh
drought.
He, the tyrant, whimsical.
With the round world for his ball.
In a dreadful patience lies.
Old since yesterday and wise.
Like a martyr on the rack
Smiles, his soft lips burnt to black.
While the fever still devours
His small body, sweet as flowers.
Dreadful patience like a sword
Stabs his mother's heart, dear Lord;
Make him naughty, wild and gay.
As he was but yesterday.
Little services he pays '
With his kisses and his praise.
While his eyes ask pardon still
That he's-troublesome and ill.
He lies smiling with a fire
In his cheeks blown high and higher.
By the wind of fever fanned.
Lord, his kisses on my hand!
Give me back my boy, I pray.
Turbulent, of yesterday,
Not this angel, like a sword
In his mother's heart, dear Lord!
Katharine Tynan In the Spectator.
