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.
