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.

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 aii Mr. B. D. Jenkins, of Lithonia, Oa., •ays that his daughter, Ida, inherited a •evere case of Eczema, which the usual aarcury and potash remedies failed to relieve. Year by year she was treated with various medicines, external appli cations and internal remedies, without result. Her sufferings were intense, and her condition grew steadily worse. All the so-called blood remedies did not aeem to reach the dia ease at all until S. S.S. was given, when an improvement was at once noticed.

Yea, Scrofula, ii anything, may beealltn the adverliaeiiicnt of foul blood. 11 Lth scourge of the world—offensive, painful debilitating, stubborn cud veil r'<{l unendurable. 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 sores since that time.” Marietta M.

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. Roman’s have an opportunity this week to enjoy strictly high grade amusements at popular prices. Guy Woodward should play to a full house every night he is here. Performance begins at 8 :15 each evening. Admission 10, 20 and 30 cents. Matinee tomorrow afternoon at 2:30, admission 10 and 20 cents to all. 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.
