Woodward-Warren Co. P'lts
it on Tonight-
PLAYED‘THCOT’iER GIRL
To a Large and Most Apprecia
tive Audience.
Guy Woodward and his entire
support transformed themsehes
into a band of fun makers last
night.
The attraction was “The
Other Girl,” the second time it
was ever put on in Rome. Mr
Woodward played it here some
years ago, with Miss Mabel Paige
as “Evy.”
Mr, Woodward was a great
improvement over his for
mer effort —and while Miss
Paige did splendidly she was
scarcely as good as Miss Elbarta
Roy was last night.
This pretty little electric bat
tery, who received as many
shocks as she imparted, and who
lived only when there were
showers of sparks and storms
of applause in the air } is as vi
vocious a little soubrette as has
ever tripped gaily over the
boards at Nevin’s.
And then that little Cordelia,
“Little” Carrie, the pretty and
and precocious midget of music
and grace—why she outdid all
former efforts last night. That
little maiden is a wonder.
(|And Miss Tucker, the leading
lady of the Woodward-Warren
Co., appeared in a new role,
the lighter one of comedy—and
—well, Miss Tucker has won a
warm place in the hearts of
Rome theatregoers. She is as
gifted as she is beautiful and as
artless in her art as an angel is
angelic.
Miss Price and Miss Bessie
Warren each sustained them
selves and added to the high
opinion the people of Rome al
ready had formed of them.
Now for “the men in the
plot,” Bert Walter outdid him
self last night. His singing and
whistling specialties brought
down the house. As a rapid-fire
Walter is a whole battery with
army mule attachments. He
took things by storm last night.
Will Smith, as “Prof. Kill
quick” gave the audience anoth
er taste of his genius, while C.
B.Middleton played “Tom”,the

whatever, save
a little ignor
ance, or pos
sibly, a little
neglect.
The woman
who suffers from weakness and disease of
the distinctly feminine organs, whether she
realizes it or not, is being slowly but surely
tortured to death. She suffers almost con
tinually with sick headache. She has pains
in the back,what she calls "stitches” in the
•ide and shooting pains everywhere. She
•xperiences burning and dragging down
sensations. She becomes weak, nervous
and despondent. She neglects her home,
and is petulant with her husband. If she
consults the average physician, there is not
one chance in ten that he will hit upon the
real cause of her trouble. He will attribute
her bad feelings to stomach, liver, heart or
nervous trouble. A woman in this condi
tion should consult some eminent and skill
ful specialist who has had a wide experi
ence. Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty vears
chief consulting physician to the Invalids’
Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y., has, with the assistance of a staff of
able physicians, prescribed for many thou
sands of women. He has invented a won
derful medicine for ailing women, known
as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It
has stood the test for thirty years. It acts
directly on the delicate and important or

l|N REAL LIFE
The Tragic Story of Cannon
Is Duplicated.
BEfIUTIFU. GIRL DIED,
With The Last Lines of Her
Part on Her Lips.
Brussels, Oct 21 —“Carmen,”
ihu beautiful little dramat'c tain
by M-rimee, so ingeniously treated
by B.zet iti music, was enacted
turn almost to the letter in real
life at 1 o’clock this morning.
A young man, who is described
on the police record as “Ferdinand
8.,” emp'oyed by a life insurance
company, had neglected his busi
ness and friends for some time
past, being desperately in love
with a young Spanish singer, Car
men de Salvados of Sevilla, re
cen'ly under engagement at the
Olympia Music Hall.
The young man expected to
marry Carmen, but latterly she
made him most unhappy by har
faithlessness and overt relations
with an actor.
This morning, just after mid
night, the singer went to a case
with this man, and after playing
curds, just as in the Bizet opera,
l<-ft with the favored lover.
Thereupon “Ferdinand B.,”vvho
had remained in ambush near bj,
rushed upon her and after a short
struggle stabbed her three times in
the breast. .
Carmen fell, murmuring the
words as the Carmen of fiction;
“Cowardl”
She died in a few minutes,
“Ferdinand B.” was arrested.
Everyone is struck by the wonder
fal similarity of this real drama
with the story of fiction,
Counsel for the assassin will
plead that the literature and mu
sic greatly influenced the young
man in committing the crime, and
that, having to do with a Carmen
so like the Carmen of fiction,
“Ferdinand B.” was impelled by
reminiscences of the opera and
his own unhappiness to the same
denouement as that of ths book.

Much Knife!
The tisa cf the surgeon’s knife is be
soming so general, resulting fatally
in such a large number of cases, as to
occasion general alarm.
Mr. William Walpole, of Walshtown,
South Dakota, writes; “About
three years ago, there came under
■ay left eye a little blotch about the
fsiae of a small pea.
It grew rapidly,and
shooting pains ran
in every direction.
I became alarmed
and consulted a
1 good doctor, who
pronounced it can
‘/’itjCSi’, and said that it
be cut out.
’5 This I would not
J consent to, haring
little faith in the
indiscriminate tv»e of the knife. Read
ing of the many cures made by S. S.
8., I determined to give that medicine
a trial, and after I had taken it a few
days, th® cancer became irritated and
began to discharge. Thia after awhile
ceased, leaving a small scab, which
snally dropped off, and only a healthy
little scar remained to mark the place
where thedestroyer had held full siway.
