PURITY AND FRESHNESS.
Two things that arc essential to substantiate the claim
ol Good Candies. Clark’s Bon-Bons, Creams, Choco
lates and Fruits sre the purest that can be made. The
name is the guarantee oi purity.
You would not care to buy chalk lor cheese and
there is no necessity to buy chalk for candy. That’s
common sense.
Clark’s Ice Creams and Ices, prepared lor iamily use
are made on the same basis. They are the purest that
can be made, and are soid with a view ol increasing the
patronage accorded. Clark’s serves parties aa well as
dinners, making the selection (or you or carrying out
your selection. Ask about thia service.

THEATRICAL
Criticism Is the means whereby art
becomes conscious of Its own exist
ence.
Rose Coghlan.
During its run in New York through
out last season "The Duke of Killlc
rankie" scored one of those genuine
hits for which Charles Frohman's
fashionable Empire Theatre has al
ways been famous. Outside of its New
York success Capt. Robert Marshall's
comedy has carried away tne laurcis
of the past two seasons in London,
and with Miss Rose Coghlan in the
Stella role, it is almost certain to
duplicate its New York and London
success while on tour of the states. It
certainly haß the advantage of the
most creditable cast that extensive
resources can mußter, but it is not the
sort of a play that depends upon per
sonality for its carrying power across
the footlights. Although light in plot,
the play has a delightfully perfect
symmetry constantly sustained inter
est and its dialogue is more crisp and
cleverly written in a vein of unflag
ging humor than has been heard in
many a season. It gives Rose Cogh
lan. that admirable actress, whose art
might be called flawless and whose
work is always celebrated, the part of
a vitriolic and frigid widow, whose
biting and sarcastic temper fairly
burns its way to effectiveness. It.
calls upon Mr. Lynn Pratt to play
one of those graceful feathery roles
of innate good-breeding, so well adapt
ed to his temperament, and opposes
to him in clever contrast a character
of pompous assinity in which Wallace
Erskine is always inimitable. Miss
Minna Phillips is the fourth member
of this all important quartette, and is
given full play for those delicate semi-
AMUSEMENTS.

Proceedings were today instituted
by the Seaboard Air Line railway

Welles, as well as the Seaboard at

Creston Clarke.
The Daily Evening Telegraph of
Philadelphia says of next Tuesday's
attraction:
Creston Clarke, in the Mansfield
dramatization of Booth Tarktngton s
story, "Monsieur IJeaucaire,” repeated
his success of last year at the Park
Theatre last evening in the role of the
romantic Bourbon prince. This char
acterization of Mr. Clarke's has
L;rown stronger yet mellower, more
highly colored, yet more softly toned,
with time, and his acting last even-
I jug brought him frequent applause and
a number of curtain calls. “Beaucalre''
is a scintillating comedy, wltttjr. quick
and plctorislly attractive, and the as
sociation of exciting incidents wilh
these qualities accounts for tnc way it
has held public favor.

THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
The tiller of the recorder's court
was handled by a new skipper this
morning. When the whistle blew Mr.
Archibald Blacksliear was steering the
craft usually guided by Judge Plcquet.
This Is quite a compliment to Mr.
BlHokshenr. for he only took his seat
In council on last Monday nnd this
is the first time that nil alderman
of so short a standing, from tho time
Viewpoint, for Mr. Blacksliear stands
about six feet, has been selected to
deal the game. But he was there
with the goods, ami. although some
of the delinquents held strong cards,
then; was nothing doing In the bluff
line. The old game of taking a drink
on account of a chill and then being
found helplessly drunk was tried, hut
the "bully" was called off tho ilmb.
Again the gag that the Innocent man
was only playing drunk for the amuse
ment of bystanders, was put up. hut
the bluff wrh called Mr. Blackshear
went at it like an old hand and dis
played tine form. Ho got 'em coming
Hnd going and the mystic maze of
testimony that was showed up over
the table was culled and trimmed llko
a. tree when the street department
gets through with It—that Is nothing
-left. Outside of the fact that, thero
was a new man in Ihe game there
was little of reel Interest in the pro
ceedings this morning.
Lula Turpin was accused of cussing
over the speed limit on Kollock street,
' hut there was a hitch in the evidence
i and Lula got off. Minnie Robinson
: and Frances Manly were up for vlolat
ling No. 460, hat. both were dls
i missed.
B. B. Willingham was up for run
ning a wagon nnd telling fruit there
from without having the license tag
attached. Mr. Willingham appeared In
court and showed the receipt for tile
tag nnd said that the regular driver
of the wagon had removed the tag
and carried It in his pocket. Yester
day the regular'man was sick and did
not turn over the tag to his su#< cssor
on the seat, consequently the whole
bunch whh pinched. Mr. Willingham
was released with the admonition to
lie careful In the future.
Neal Rawls put a plain drunk and got
*2.50 or 5.
Anthony Jordan was a big buck nig
ger that got. loaded and went In to
an outhouse of a white man. When
found lie was in rather a negligee con
dltton. The wagon was called for and
still there was trouble. There was
some talk of calling out the wrecking
engine, but It was finally decided that
with the assistance of several of the
bystanders that he could he bundled
into the wagon. This was done with
the negro wrapped In a crocus sack
and In was brought to hcadqunrtcrs In
a helpless condition. He was warned
by the acting recorder against a repe
tition of the offense and was given
*5 or It) days.
T. J. Horne had a plain drunk nnd
said that he was only "doing It for
fun. The Judge could not see the Joke
and put Horne on the horns of a
dilemma, consisting of $2.50 or 5,
Thus. Beeiun was full of the booze
and had a battery of artillery stuck
in his licit, consisting of a gun about
two feet, long. He was looking for
someone and was swearing that he
would fix him If he Aker got his bat
tery In range of the other man. Thom
as was repentant and looked aggriev
ed when he got *5 or 10.
HE CAN’T WAKE UP.

hospital since last Friday. He wits

He said that AM had probably taken
