On Thursday night the elite of Ridgeway were delighted by the per tormance of "Finnigan's Fort:ac. The play was produced by the Ridge way Dramatic Club, which by the way is a bright aggregation of theatri cal stars. For a long time expectation was on the que vive and great interest had been awakened in this play, and the effort of those engaged was fully re paid by the large audience which greeted their appearance on Thursday It was perhaps the largest audience that has assembled in Ridgeway on such an occasion for many a day. The house was crowded and enthusiastic, and well might they be; the play was in itself a strong one, and. was in every respect all that could be desired. It was~ a good play well rendered. One seldom has the good fortune to seo so much good acting among ama teurs. Taken all in all this rendition of "Finnigan's Fortune" regect great redit on the performers and the town. Mr. McEachern, in the title roll, was eminently a success. His every word and gesture showed his thorough ap preciation and comprehension of the character he was impersonating. At times he became pathetic and held his auditors by the spell of his tart, and yet tgain he touched the springs of wit and humor, which brought forth bursts of applause. Jake, the kee-or of a first-class Dutch saloon, was without doubt a most happy and artistic impersonation, and Mr. eeorge Moore, in this charac ter, gave evidence of histrionic talent of the highest degree. Jake's advent was from first to last the siga of mirth and applause. And now what can we say of pretty winsome little XEaty that will do even faint justice to the charming p ortrayal of this character as acted by Miss Sarah Coleman? We can only. say that when she stepped before the footlights she so won the hearts of the -anir*--andien that whn the~ curtain fell on the last act the whole house, like Patrick, was in love with the sweat little Datch girl. Lady Eanna, too, won laurels for herself, and it will be long before those who saw Miss Marie Moore in ths character will forget the thrill of pleasure they felt whenever she ap peared. Messrs. A T. Moore as auf fety, Ed. Boyd as Patrick, R. M. Bolick as Count de- Morney, sustained the diferent parts4-n which they were casted with great ikill' and are de serving of th'e higaest praise. Eut when all were so good, if it can be said that one excelled, it is to Mrs. Blair the palms belertgs. In the role of Mrs. Finnigan MErs. Blair gave evidence of theatrical ability of the highest order. From the moment the urtain went up until its fall she caught and held the sympathy of the audience. This presentation 6f Mrs. Blair's was indeed the perfection of art assisted by beauty. It was diffi cult for the beholdierto decide whether to art, beauty, or grace was due to the sensations of pleasure, wonder and a-miration which ever and anon took possession of the mind as we beheld the fiae performance. Love, anger, pride and disappointment were each in turn touched and portrayed by this gifted performer. Nevet over done, never under done, but always true to nature and to art she was. The play was a fine one well rend ered and all praise is due to those who carried it to Euch a successful finish. The success won in the past should be an incentive for efforts in the future, and we hope that "Finnigan's Fortune" will not be the last of the entertainments which we will have the pleasure of witnessing in Ridge way. Bobbed the Grave. A startling incident of which Mr John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain contin ually in back and sides, no appetite gradally growing weaker day oy day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters,' and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle mnade a decided~ improvement. I contined their use for three weeks, and am now a well msn. I know they saved my life and robbed the grave of anotber victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cents per bottle at McMaster Co.'s drug store. 6 CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

U Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, sI Ill., makes the statement, that she el caught cold, which settled on her Is lungs: she was treated for a month by tt her family physician, but grew worse. C He told her she was a hopeless victim ii of consumtion and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist sang- IC gested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption; she bought a bottle and bi to her delight found herself benefited t( from first dose. She continued its use and after taking six bottles, found her self sound and well; now does her .. ewn housework, and is as well as she ever was. Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at McMaster Co.'s drug store. I.arge bottles 50 cents and $1.00. 61 HOW TO CATCH A sHEEF.

Mc Master Co.' 3.T.8 . 1 FEUIT CURES INEBRIEEY. Do you know any one who is a - large fruit consumer who is a drunk ard? If you do, I do not and wh ?j In a conversation with a phsician on this subject he admitted th tct and justifies It with this reason that the desire among borticulturists for liquor is, comparatively speaking, un known to those living largely on ubacid fruit, that one of the mildest andi speediest cures for the liguer appetite is a habitual fruit diet. Another rays that the eating of toma totis with salt by one addicted to alc) hulic beverages will soon make liquor as a beverage offensive, undrinkable and ungrateful to the stomach, so much so that it will nauseate 'when druuk. If so this is the'cheapest reme dy yet offe:ed and should supplant the "Keley cure." As the season of the year when pneumonia, la grippe, sore throat, coughs, colds, catarrh, bronchitis and Iang troubles are to be guarded against, nothing "is a fine substitnte," will "aswer the purpoSe," or is "j lstsS good" as One Minute Coug Cure. h That is the one infallible remedy for all lung, throat or bronchial troubles.
