EARLY J. HUGHES.
Between acts two and three of "When
Smith Came Home," which comes to
the Academy of Music on Saturday,
December 28th, matinee and night, Mr.
J. Early Hughes, the principal comed
ian and star, will take the audience
on a short trip through coon town.
The act is one long laugh, and affords
Mr. Hughes the opportunity of intro
ducing two songs that are the best of
their kind ever written. They are,
"That Welcome On The Mat Ain't
Meant For Me," and "The Peach That
Tastes the Sweetest Hangs the High
est on the Tree." Mr. Hughes sings
them in his own inimitable way, and
keeps the audience applauding from
start to finish of his act.
Mr. Fay, of Fay, Coley & Fay, the
trio, who furnish part of the fun . in
"When Smith Comes Home," was for
merly principal comedian with Prim
rose' Minstrels. Like his partner, Mr.
Coley, he has a more than usually good
voice, and he can furnish enough fun
to satisfy any audience, even without
the assistance of his co-workers.
PRESTON CLARKE.
Those who failed to visit Staub's
theatre Thursday night and see
Creston Clarke in "The Power
That Governs" missed something they
may well regret. It was one of the
strongest plays that has traveled this
way during this or any past season,
and was thoroughly enjoyed from the
beginning to the final curtain. Mr.
Clarke received call after call after
each curtain.
It is a very strong play and splen
did opportunities in the role of "Alex
ander Michael" are afforded Mr.
Clarke for the display of his excellent
talents. Almost constantly before the
audience, he never tired but seemed
to possess a heart interest in his work
and the climaxes were apparently perfect-Mr;
Clarke's support was of a high
order and the company was seeming
ly perfectly balanced. The blustering
style of "Jim Henderson" suited Mr.
Frederick Bock. The part of the de
pendent, helpless, ninny of a dude, the
pampered and petted son of a rich
man as displayed by Harold DcBeckcr
made him almost repulsive and that's
about the height of success. The
leading feminine part was carried by
Itenc Oshler in an entirely satisfac
tory manner.
"The Power That Governs" is from
the pen. of Mr. Clarke's wife, the play
wright, who writes under a former
name, Adelaide Prince.: She spent a
couple of years In Mexico, where the
scene of the play is laid, in order to
acquaint, herself with the scenes, cus
toms and manners of the country.
Tlint she has succeeded admirably it
is only necessary to see Mr. Clarke in
the play to vealisse. Daily Journal,
Knoxville, Tenn.
Badly Mixed Up.
Abraham Brown, of Wlnterton, N.
Y., had a very remarkable experience:
he says: "Doctors got badly mixod
up over me; one said heart disease;
two called it kidney trouble; the
fourth, blood poison, and the fifth
stomach and liver trouble; but none
of them helped me; so my wife advis
ed trying Electric Bitters, which are
restoring me to perfect health. One
bottle did me nior good than all the
five doctors prescribed." Guaranteed
for blood poison, weakness and all
stomach, liver and kidney complaints,
by all druggists, 50c.

COLD KILLS THF GERM.
Lieut. Perry Says There Are No Bald
Heads in the Arctic Region. .
The people who come back from
Klondike testify to the fact that no
native bald heads are there. The
evidence is that the cold climate
kills the germs that eat the hair off
at the root. Lieut. Perry, who went
to the Arctic Regions, gives the same
evidence. Newbro's Herpicide has
the same effect as the cold climate.
It kills the germ that eats the hair
off at the roots, and the hair grows
again. Herpicide is the first hair
remedy built upon the principle of
destroying the germ that eats the
hair off. Its phenomenal sale demon
strates the correctness of the scalp
germ theory. Sold by leading drug
gists. Send 10c. in stamps for sam
ple to The Herpicide Co., Detroit,
