.ft - muu :.e. kh They certainly did "eat it alive" that big musical comedy show pre sented at' , the Royal yesterday. It plainly showed "which way the wind blows"; that Wilmington amusement lovers prefer . musical Comedy to vau deville and that such a classy show as was presented for their entertain ment yesterday : will always draw big business. Bobby Hagan and his Manhattan Girls Musical Comedy Company, al though they arrived late after a tire some day trip to fill their engage ment in Wilmington, presented a tip top matinee yesterday and a better show last night. By the time they appear today and tonight they will be rounded into great form and will open your eyes. Featured on this show for first hon ors come the nifty dancing "girlie whirlie" chorus, a half dozen of th prettiest chorus girls seen here this season, and they are some dancers, too, exhibiting some of the prettiest costumes seen hereabouts in many weeks. All of 'em are young, pretty, vivacious and put over the show with a -snap and a "pep" that is irresisti-1 ble. Bobby Hagah in the leading role keeps 'em laughing all the way through, while Ed Loop as the origi nal "silly kid" also putting over a feature whistling act, is another drawing card of merit. Tomorrow a brand new big show goes on, featuring that b.'g piano and girl specialty that you certainly must not miss.

F, Hardisoii is Happy For it and Joins Large Local Chorus in. Giving Praise to Tanlac. Mrs. J. F. Hardison, residing at .,18 Wooster street, has gained so rapidly through the use of Tanlac that her hus band refused to entertain even the smallest amount of hestitancy in voic ing his sentiments in chorus with num berless other Wilmington folks, as to the superlative merits of Tanlac as the ideal reconstructive tonic. "Yes, sir," he exclaimed to the Tan lac Man, "Tanlac has done more for Mrs. Hardison than physicians and other treatments combined. Just think of it, my wife now eats as hearty a breakfast as I do. To get the full weight of this you must consider that until she started on Tanlac she would not eat a mouthful of food. "Acute indigestion was responsible for her lost appetite and this malady, together with malarial fever, had her in a run-down condition. It took all she could do for her to get through the day's housework. Severe pains would grip her in the stomach, and she com-1 plained of feeling tired out a good deal. "Arid from just one bottle of Tanlac, her condition has taken on a decided change for the better. Now she can eat anything and her sleep is sound. Her strength has improved and all in all she is feeling better than for months. Hope that this story may help others enjoy the same comfort is why I offer it for I know what Tanlac can do."

He has been in the employ of but one road, the Rock Island, where he began in 1879. In 1884 he was promoted to engineer. He became grand chief of the brotherhood on the death of Grand Chief Arthur in 1903. Long a student of the economic as well as the industrial side of labor questions, he was for six years a mem- ing on the Des Moines, Osceola and Southern line.

The conference sessions will continue i three days - and will be interspersed I with several notable features -of en ' tertainpent, ' , . - : Indian Who killed Wife Liber ated Bickett Grants His Thirty-fifth Pardon. : ' . ! (Special to The Dispatch ) : Raleizh. N.. C.. March--20. Senator; Frank Gough, of Robeson, played in better luck with Goyefno;- Bickett yesterday than in: the closing days of the General Assembly, when the Bick ett crop Hen bill was before the Sen ate and Mr. Gough was "agin" it. The Senator came here for a par don and got it "while you wait." Gus Hunt, an Indian of Robeson, was , serv ing ten years for manslaughter and the one slain was his wife. On gener al principles Governor Bickett oppos ed the murder of wives and says so. Hunt, however, has served six of the years and all the evidence tends to support his defense originally that he killed his wife in an accident. He was submitted for manslaughter on the ground of carelessness. While loading a muzzle-loading shotgun and ramming the shot down the gun fired and killed his wife. Governor Bick ett thinks the punishment has been long enough. The Governor pardoned T. Pierce Jackson, of Transylvania county who had served seven months of his year for manufacturing liquor. The par don is conditional upon" good citizen ship. The Governor ran his thirty-fifth pardon up today with Geo. Hamilton, 1 Wake county brat, who is serving a term of three years for breaking into the Horace Dowell house two years ago. The? boy is still in his teens and has given a great deal of trouble, but the Dowell family urged the pardon and moved by the hope to help the youngster Governor Bickett gets him out before the end of his term. He must show good behavior. Mrs. William Moilcure, one of Ral eigh's best known women, died sud denly near midnight of Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Moncure had been to church and was planning to go away on a midnight train. When she was about to bid goodbye she fell without previous intimation of feeling ill. She died in a few moments after conscious ness of her condition. Three children survive, Miss Viev ienne Moncure, of New York, Miss Belle Moncure, of Raleigh, and Dr. William Moncure, of Hamlet. The funeral will take place Tuesday. Pictures of Miss Bettie Howe, movie maiden, who was to have sponsed for the Agromeck, the State College (old A. & M.) baseball team, were printed in the afternoon paper today sored edition This newspaper enterprise follow ing a war between seniors and facul ty as to the use of Miss Howe, brought to the public's attention the first that a large section of that clientele had seen. Last week the newspaper print ed a most amusing editorial joshing the faculty on its prudishness. The boys met, read the ribaldry and re- solved to stand pati They put a pic- ture of Miss Howe in a public place just the remnants of her handsome self. The faculty disclaim the initiative in breaking up the plans of the stu dents. To the teachers belongs only the referendum. Some of the seniors according to President Riddick in a statement issued this morning, called attention to the picture and said other girls in the State objected to it. The college government agreed that the pictures were an offense and did its part to stop the use of them in the annual. The senior class then yield ed its point and the deleted but dainty, heels cannot be traced in the book. President Riddick acknowledges in general terms the rights of the stu dents to get out their own publica tion. but he insists that such annuals as bear the college name should carry ,,,io..rr,Q aa it can be. And he thinks the public will come to the same conclusion, The Secretary of State yesterday chartered the Wilborn Furniture Co., of High Point, with John W. Wilborn, Jacob Wilborn and J.
