Wooly West.
EARLIEST IN 25 YEARS
Soldiers Eyes Turn Longingly
to Dixie.
Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 17. —
The earliest winter stoim in the
wist in twenty-five years, and the
worst storm on record, yesterday
almost completely shut Kansas
City off from wire communication
with the south, the west and the
north.
An opening on the oast has alone
kept the city from being totally
isolated. It bad been raining for
the past twe.ity-four hours. Short
ly after midnight last night the
rain.turned to snow and the tem
perature dropped perceptibly.
Steadily since then a heavy wet

points reaching the volocity of a

graph and telephone poles out in
the open have either been blown
down by the strong wind or brok

At Fai: mount Park, near Kan

where portions of the 3d and sth
Missouri, and the 21st and 22d
Kansas regiment, respectively are
encamped, many tents were blown
down and thu soldiers made to suf
fer acutely.
The storm came up with great
suddenness and caught many un
prepared. Numerous cases of suf
fering to man and beast will doubt

tion shall have been resumed.
Railway traffic, while more or less
hampered, has not been badly in
terrupt, as far as can be learned.
In Kansas City no seriom damage
has resu't<d.

WOODWARD
WARREN GO.
Gaue a Splendid Performance
Last Nlylit.
QUITE fl GOOD HOUSE
In Spite of The Miserable
Weather.
Guy, Woodward, always a fa
voritein the Hill City opened a
week’s engagement at Nevin’s
last night.
The attraction put on last
night was “The Captain’s Mate”
and to say that it was brilliantly
performed and enthusiastically
received would be the plain
truth, nothing more.
Guy Woodward, when he ap
peared, was greeted with en.
ihusiastic applause He has not
been a stranger before the local
footlights since his first appear
ance, and will never be again
while bis light holds out to burn.
At his last appearance here he
was easily ranked as the peer of
popular price stars. His work
last night shews that he has
climbed rap ; dly aud he now
claims and is justly accorded a
peerage among the best fun,
makers on the American ttage.
But not satisfied with improv
ing his own individual work he
has gathered about him and the
gifted Miss Warren a large aud
splendidly selected company of
dlever actors and actresses.
In last night’s performance
Miss Warren, as the aged hag,
Hannah Lyons gave it a most
villainous interpretation and
proved herself a worthy mother
of 11. B. Siggins who, as Dave
Lyons,was as dehpdyed a scoun
drel, (stagely speaking) as ever
scuttled a ship or cut a throat.
Miss Elberta Roy—Oh if you
say Elberta is a peach—you
won’t Miss her. She is as capti
vating as Patti Rosa ever was.
Miss Roy has a bright stage fu
ture. Her Rome audience fell in
love with her last night.
Bert Walters is a lulu. As
Mary Ellen Riley he was im
mense and if he was the “coon”
who “sung and danced,” why
his equal has not been seen
Nevin’s since the house was
built.
Will N. Smith also deserves a
chapter of compliments for the

Yea, Scrofula, ii anything, may beealltn

scourge of the world—offensive, painful

Outward applications do not cure, the;
only drive the difficulty to now quur.en
Emollients may palliate, they canno
abolish the evil. There is but one aur<
way out, and that is to eliminate th,
taint from the blood.
Ther*! is one remedy that can effoct.this
and it is the only one that, so far as W
know, has almost invariably succeeded
even where the system baa been poisoned
by long years of taint, and the ravages to
be repaired are tremendous. That remedy
is Hood’s Sarsaparilla. Read this:
“ My daughter was afflicted with im
pure blood. There were running sores
all over her body and they caused her
much suffering. We tried ’medicines that
were recommended as blood purifiers,
but could not see that they did any good.
A friend told ine about Hood’s Sarsapa
rilla end I began giving the girl this med
icinc. The result vas that she was per
fectly cured after taking a few bottles,
She has Lad no symptoms of scrofula

Dave Lyon. His interpretation
of the two parts was such as to
prove him to be an artist of rare
power.
Miss Bonnair Price. Mr.
Charles Middleton and Mr. John
S. Sullivan each acquitted them
selves in a manner to justify
Mr. Woodward in claimin; that
he has in his company artists
for even the easier characters.
“Little” Carrie Cordelia’s
specialty in singing and dancing,
was most remarkable, while the
illustrated songs of Mr. Burt
Gilderoy are worth double the
price of admission.

this week to enjoy strictly high

YELLOW FEVER
Increased Number of New
Cases at Jackson.
Jackson, Miss., Oct. 18
Contrary to general expectation,
Jackson’s report of new cases of
yellow fever for today is unusu
ally large, the total being fifteen.
a his is accounted for by the fact
' that the cool weather tends to
devolop the disease in persons
whose systems already contain
the gjrms of infection, but it is
believed that further spread is
not p >ssible with the prevailing
temperature.
END OF INDIAN UPRISING.
Walker, Minn , Oct., 18.—
Indian Commissionei Jones and
his party and the newspaper
correspondents who left cn the
tug Flora for Black Duck Point
to attend the Indian council,
passed through one of the sever
est storms ever known on Leech
lake.
In attempting to land here on
their return the Flora ran into
the sunken timbers. There she
hammered, while small boats in
the lee of the steamer with great
difficulty brought those on board
ashore. The Flora will go to
pieces before morning.
