A New Novel.
“Mariposilla,” a novel by Mrs.
Charles .Stewart Daggert, is to be issued
shortly by Rand. McNally & Co. Mrs.
Daggert is a resident of California and
uses that state as a background for her
New York and California people. The
local coloring of the tale is reported to
be excellent and the dramatic force in
tense. The publishers prophesy that
"Mariposilla" will at once place Mrs.
Daggart in the front rank of American
authors, and look upon her as one of
those rare discoveries that once in a
while rejoice the heart of the publisher.

COTTON LETTER.
New York, Nov. 16.—(Special.)—During
the past week for the first time in many
months the bears in the cotton market
have assumed a decidedly aggressive atti
tude. Helping on the decline which the
changed conditions of supply and demand
had occasioned and relentlessly hammer
ing prices whenever it seemed clear that
the sellers outnumbered the buyers. The
lowest price was touchd yesterday, when
January closed at 8.07, a decline of 1.37
points from the highest of the season.
Today Liverpool surprised the bears by
an advance both in spots and contracts,
which was reflected by an improvement
here of about 10 points. The day's trad
ing. however, was of a comparatively
quiet character, the fluctuations having
been within a range of 4 points. The
highest and lowest prices for January
were 8.19 and 8.15. The close was quiet,
but steady, with January at 8.16@8.17.
After the close the demand Improved and
in private trading bidders were offering
8.19 for January.
The heavy liquidation during the past_
week has undoubtedly lifted a heavy bur
den from the market, and the creation by
the German houses here of a very con
siderable short interest increases the
probability of a sharp advance when the
right time comes. Meantime W’e incline
to the opinion that there is not likely to
be anyjurther very serious decline. The
buying during the last few days has been
by some of the strongest houses here. W e
favor purchases on declines, though for
the present it may be the right thing, as
it is certainly the safest to accept profits
upon rallies. RIORDAN & CO.

HUDSON ACQUITTED.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the
jury in the R. H. Hudson case returned
a verdict of "not guilty.” It will be re
membered that Hudson was under indict
ment for murder in the first degree for
the killing of Deputy Sheriffs C. H. Cole
and Jim Smith, which occurred in July,
1894, at Coalburg. The case was one of
unusual notoriety, It being alleged that
George Hudson, a son of R. H. Hudson,
was implicated in the Pratt mines riot of
that year. A warrant was sworn out for
his arrest and placed In the hands of
Deputy C. H. Cole, and in attempting to
make the arrests both Cole and Smith
lost their lives at the hands of the Hud
sons. In the first trial Solicitor C. W.
Ferguson represented the state, and the
jury not being able to agree a mistrial
resulted. The last trial occupied the
greater part of the week, Solicitor Fer
guson being assisted by Mr. Lee C. Brad
ley. Mr. C. P. Beddow was the leading
counsel for Mr. Hudson, Messrs. J. J.
Altman and John T. Shugart being as
sociated with him. His address to the
•jury was one of the best heard in the
court house in many days. Mr. Beddow
is one of the new acquisitions to the Bir
mingham bar and is fast forgtng to the
front as one of the leading lawyers of the
city, the acquittal of HLudson being a
great victory for him.
THINGS DRAMATIC
The Grau Opera company closed their
| engagement at O’Brien’s last night, pre
| sen ting the beautiful opera, "The Grand
Duchess.” The audience was small, but
appreciative, and the attraction all that
I could be desired. %
Miss Bands'll sang in her usual exqul-.
site manner; and so was the singing of
Mr. Libby, Mr. Frear and others good.
"Indiana” was repeated at matinee.
Theatrical Notes.
Miss Mary Hendertbn has been en
gaged as leading lady for Mr. Charles
Rohlf's during the latter’s starring tour.
Miss Henderson was formerly a prom
inent member of the companies of
Charles Frohman and A. M. Palmer. She
will play Portia- in "The Merchant of
Venice” and Mary Leavenworth in "Har
well." Miss Henderson is the wife of W.
T. Henderson, the celebrated musical
critic of the New York Times. She Is a
beautiful woman aVid comes of an old
theatrical family.
The many glowing accounts ef the way
Mr. Salvlni is staging his repertoire this
season, and of the excellence of his sup
porting company, is the best evidence of
his artistic conscience and goes to show
that he Is willing to return to the publi a
proper value for what he receives from
it in profit, it has come to be generally
conceded that in a measure at least he
faithfully reflected the lustre of his fa
ther’s genius, and as a result Interest
Voncernlng him is ever on the increase.
Hanlon Bros.' "Fantasma" Is billed for
Friday and Saturday nights of this week.
One of Manager Theiss' attractions
the coming week at O’Brien's opera
house will be Creston Clarke, and the en
gagement promises to bj a brilliant one,
as his appearanoe last year as a star
created a most favorable impression.
Among the Shakespearean reportory
"Hamlet" is the.one he has selected to
play here. The critcs agree that in many
ways he favors his distinguished uncle,
the late Edwin Booth.
Creston Clark was horn in Philadel
phia August 20, 1865. He was reared in
Paris at the college of Notre Dame de
St. Croix, where he first studied for the
church, but abandoned his original in
tention and decided to go upon the stage.
He made his first appearance in England
with Edwin Booth in 1882 in "Hichllieu,”
after playing a round of parts in Mr.
Booth's repertoire during that visit. He
was engaged at the Haymarket theater,
London, and played a part In the orignal
English production of "Fedora.” under
the Bancrofts. He next went to the
stand with Jennie Lee. He then appear
ed with the late Lytton Sothern in “Our
American Cousin.” At the close of that
engagement he again Joined his father,
this time as leading man, appearing In
"The Heir at Law,” "She Stoops to Con
quer," and in various other roles. In
1886 he returned to his native land for
the first time since his babyhood and
played a stock season under the manage
ment of Lester Wallack. In 1887 he open
ed as "Hamlet" in Richmond, Va„ and
subsequently played the role in Balti
more, and a fortnight later in Philadel
phia. He was next engaged by Law
rence Barrett to support Edwin Booth
in “Hamlet" as Laertes, and in “Othel
lo” as Iago. Then followed an engage
ment with Augustin Daly's company.
His engagement of twelve consecutive
weeks In Philadelphia and his recent re
turn aprearnce at thp same theater for
sixteen weeks broke all previous
Shakespearean records In America. Miss
Adelaide Prince will support Mr. Clarke
the coming season in opposite star roles.
GEORGE H. ADAMS.
Early in the theatrical season of 1887
George H. Adams, hten the commedlan df
Gardner’s Zo Zo company, was playing
an engagement at O’Brien’s opera house.
The opposition the first day was Barnurrt
& Bailey’s circus. Mr. Adams and sev
eral members of the theatrical company
attended the circus during the afternoon
performance. An act not down on the
bills produced more merriment and was
enjoyed more by Jjoth audience and circus
people than the entire regular perform
ance. At a certain point In the old-time
circus programme, after the completion
of a very difficult and dangerous exhibi
tion of bareback riding, It was the cus
tom for the ringmaster and clown in a
grandiloquent way to indulge In a dis
cussion of the merit of the rider and de
clare that there was not a man living
the globe that oould equal the riding of
the young man whose skill and courage
was then being discussed, whereupon one
of the best performers In the company,
who was seated with the audience,
dressed as a country man, would step
forward and claim that he could surpass
in skill and daring anything attempted
by the champion. Mr. Countryman would
be Invited in and assisted to the back of
the horse, and the usual act of disrobing
would begin until the rider appeared in
his circus tights and spangles, to the ex
quisite delight of the small boy and un
sophisticated portion of the audience.
The above described act was introduced
during the performance attended by Mr.
Adams and associates. At the conclusion
of the act Adams, who was seated on one
of the lower benches, staggered over to
the ring and In a maudlin tone exclaimed
to the clown, "Say, Mr., I’ll bet my old
shoes I can beat that feller all holler.”
The audience for the moment thought it
was another circus man. The circus peo
ple having knowledge of the fact that
the fellow was an outsider, and recog
nizing an opportunity to have some fun
at the expense of a tipsy countryman, in
vited him in the ring. After Bveral dim
Cull aUcIIipiB lilt? HU W II O U\A.CCUU <11
lng the supposed countryman on the
horse's back, who was started around the
ring at a lively rate by a cut from the
ringmaster's whip. With seemingly ap
parent difficulty the countryman gained
his feet and then commenced staggering
and pitching all over the horse’s back,
all the time talking In a maudlin way to
clown, ringmaster and audience, which,
as a matter of course, created roars of
laughter. The circus people, who had all
gathered at one end of the tent to witness
the denoument, began to smell a large
sized rat, when, after steadying himself,
Mr. Adams turned a back somersault,
lighting upon his feet upon the horse’s
back and remalnlrig as steady as a
"die." For the space of five minutes the
horse continued to go at fun speed around
the ring, and George H. Adams gave
those circus people an exhibition of trick
equestrianism rarely ever witnesed In a
circus ring.
At the conclusion of the side act not
down on the bills the circus people gath
ered around Mr. Adams Inquiring as to
his identity, while the audience kept up
a cheer for the country circus rider.
Mr. Adams will appear with Hanlon’s
Fantasma In this city November 22 and
23. __

thoro was blood on iji$ face and clothes,
aud before any questions could be asked

course of conversation said:
“You have a spot on your nose. You
must bo careful, or It will get worse. If
you llko, I will remove It from you by
rubbing It with n little harmless fluid."
Tho lad, who took him for a bcnovoleirt
