Health department officlals and Dr. Spald- ing are much pleased with the results of the use of anti-toxin In a case of diphtheria at 1913 Douglas street. Sunday evening the appearance was on the left side alone. Monday evening when the application was made the appearance was also on the right eide and had increased one-third on the left. Yesterday noon when the case was seen the appearance was wholly gone on the right and half gone on the left side. Altogether the Improvement is such that it is not thought It will be necessary to use the remedy a stcond time, though usually at least three applications arc required, e Hayden Bros', ad. is on page 5. i Kobbed the Widow and Fatherless.

From the solidly substantial meat provided by *Don Caesar” to the mawkish sentiment” which Mr. Salvini offered to his audience last night, is € strongly in contrast that one wonders at the Judgment displayed and marvels much at the lack of knowledge which so excellent a player shows in selecting such a character for fmpersonation, “The Student of Sala- 1s hardly a mask and is in no sense an_addition to a repertoire which includes a Don Caesar, a d'Artognan, a Ruy Blas, and other immortals of the stage. The play, which had its first performance in Omaha at Boyd's last night, drew a larger house than on the preceding night, a fact accounted for in that the word “‘comedy was attached to a new play and Mr. Salvini's first attempt at dramatization. But o ap- parent was the nervousness of the people and so palpable were the shortcomings, par- ticularly in two acts, that the fate of the play seemed only a question of time. Even the stage has some scales of measurement left, and the playwright who makes pla as a cook garnishes a ham by sticking clovi into it may possess the qualities of a chef without atfaining to the rank of a chevalier. Viewed in a calmly critical light “The Student of Salamanca’ seems to be a Spanish cdition of Zekial Homespun,—with, however, the advantages afforded by a great uni- versity,—and in love with a senorita of royal descent and the chief lady in waiting upon the wife of Philip the Fifth of Spain. The bachelor of the university talks modern Bnglish_although the scene of the play is laid in 1726 in Madrid. It is, however, in his overpowering ardor for his inamorata, in his gawkishness and in his disposition to get mixed up with the furniture that the chief interest of the comedy depends, and Salvini assuming the nimble caperings of a light comedian is a composite picture which aroused the audience somewhat last night. It must be apparent already to Mr. Salvini that an attempt to write plays outside their native atmosphere is not his forte, which rather lies in the portrayal of those stressful characters included in his repertoire. The third act of the play improves some- what, while the fourth brings the inevitable conclusion to all comedirs cast In the ro- mantic lines of “Student of Salamanca.” However, the play was written to give Mr. vini’s wife, Maud Dixon, aa opportunity to display her dramatic ability which she does not find in other plays of her husband’s repertoire. As Inez, Miss Dixon presented a right pretty picture of a Spanish senorita, but the prompter was very much in evidence throughout the performance, marring what would otherwiss have been a thoroughly acceptable impersonation. Mr. John Lane made a most satisfying inn keeper, but for the others, opportunity was what w most needed.. The play was fairly well put on from a gcenic standpoint. This evening Mr. Alexander Salvini will close his engagement at the Boyd by giving his strong personation of Philippe d’Artog- nan, in Dumas’ romantic play, “The Derby Guardsmen.” In all the round of Salvini's repertoire there is mot a character to be found possessing the vividness and high pressure of d’Artognan, and Salvinl's por- trayal of it has perhaps mever been equaled here. Corinne and the Kimball Opera Comique company will be at Boyd's for three nights, commencing Monday. The opera of ‘“Hen- drick Hudson” has a splendid investiture, and it will bb presented by a company of sixty people, There will be a number of new specialties introduced; “Little Queen Irene,” a song written by Lester Bodine and E. H, Packard of this city. Aside from the fact- that Corinne Is always a favorite, this recognition of an Omaha production will add to local interest, The Kimball Opera company this season in stronger than ever, and includes Willard Simms, the famous comedian, and other artists, ] On Thursday evening next. Mr. Joseph Murphy returns to the Boyd, after an ab- sence of two years, much improved in health from the rest. Mr. Murphy is one of the most popular actors who comes to Omaha, as has been evinced by the crowded houses he has invariably played to here. On Thursday and Friday nights Mr. Murphy will appear as Larry Donovan in ‘“‘Shaun Rhue,’” Saturday afternoon and evening in the ro- mantic ~spectacular Irish drama, in four acts, entitled, he Dcnagh. The engagement will close Sunday night with the old-time favorite, ““The Kerry Gow.” The Saturday matinee will be played for the benefit of the Nebraska drouth sufferers, and will be under the direction of the State Relief commis- sion. The sale of seats will open this morn- ing at 9 o'clock. “The Derby Winner'" closes its engage- ment at the Empire with two performances today. The usual ladies' matinee at 2:30, when any seat may be obtained for 25 cents. ‘“Phe Derby Winner” has met with the de- servedly cordial reception it merits during its return engagement in this city, and fur- nishes an enjoyable and interesting perform- ance, Farce comedy, that very popular but much abused form of entertainment, which is responsible for the change in the tastes of theater-goers the past few years, and which has rapidly degenerated into a variety en- tertalnment, with its specialty features pro- nounced, has given to the stage a novelty at last in one of the brightest, funniest and most entertaining comedies of the farce order sean for many years on the stage, The play, which s a distinct advance in the right di- rection, ls: called “A Green Goods Man,” and the plot, for it has a plot, and a good one, too, deals with the green goods and bunco swindlers, For those peaple who have read of the green goods game It is a treat, as it gives a complete expose of how the game Is worked.- In its simplicity lles its chief charm, for the swindle is as easily turned, and as deftly, too, as to seem almost incredible. The company seen in the sentation of this play, which appears Empire for four night day matince, January 27, is composed of the best company of comedans, singers and dancers ever put together in one company.

PAXTON BLOCK, pre- | LAYING DOWN A PRECEDENT Supreme Court Settles a New Point in the Relation of Marriage, UNFAITHFUL WIFE AND INSANE HUSBAND Mrs, Shank, Divorced at Suit of Her Hus- band's Guardian and Married Again, Has No Inheritance in the Estate of the Former. RED OAK, Ia, Jan. 22.—(Special)—Last Friday the supreme court handed down a decision in part reversing a case appealed from the district court of this county and presenting a very unusual state of facts Moreover, the decision is arrived at only upon the merits of the case, there being no precedent to which the court could refer. On January 1, 1865, Anthony Shank mar- ried M¥ry A. Temple and they lived together until 1873, when he became insane and was sent to the Mount Pleasant hospital. From there he was sent to Mercy hospital at Dav- enport, where he died in 1892, In 1873 his wife was appointed his guardian, but® was removed In 1881 because of mismanagement and T. H. Alexander was appointed. No children were born to Mr. and Mrs, Shank, but in 1881 Mrs. Shank gave birth to an illegitimate child. In 1884 Alexander, as guardian, brought suit for divorce for his ward from’ Mrs. Shank. The divorce was granted, and Mrs, Shank accepted $1,012 in alimony and soon after married Mohler, the father of her child. After Anthony Shank's death she began suit against his adminis- trator for half of the etate and claimed the divorce was void because the guardian had né right to bring such action and she was entitled to inherit as Shank’s widow. The caso was tried in 1893 before Judge Towner, who decided 1n the woman's favor, Defendants appealed, and the supreme court, in an opinion by Justice Rothrock, sustains the ruling of the lower court in finding the divorce proceedings illegal, but declares that under the circumstances the woman cannot inherit as Shank's widow, since she accepted the alimony in full con’ sideration for her claims against his estate, and had, further, accepted the divorce by marrying Mohler, In ‘rendering this decision the court say “We can discover no reason why Mrs, Mohler should be allowed to masquerade in a court of justice as the widow of Anthony Shank and at the same time claim that she was the wife of Mohler for about eight years be- fore Shank died. Both the law and good morals forbid it. Having accepted the di- vorce as valid In the way she did, she should be held to be estopped from main- taining any claim to any part of the es of her former husband. The conclusion we have reached in this case on the question of estoppal is not directly supported by the decisions of this court. But it appears to us in harmony with modern legislation upon the relation of husband and wife.”” ASKS THAT THE BOODLE BE RETURNED Philadelphia Briber Shows His Nerve to the Citizens of Des Molnes. DES MOINES, Jan, (Special Telegram.) —The $1,000 paid to the Saturday Review (newspaper) for purchase of its silence on the gas question, which was exploited in the city council meeting last night, was today placed in the hands of a committee of five leading citizens for final disposition. C. K. Mead, agent for a Philadelphia gas company, who made the deal with the newspaper, appeared with an_attorney today and demanded the return of the money on the ground that the conditions had been violated by the newspa- per men. He was referred to the committee which held the money. It is probable the grand jury will make an investigation and criminal proceedings follow. It is said other sensational developments will follow, con- necting some of the aldermen who are said to have been bribed in connection with the gas ordinance. It looks like the penitentiary is in store for somebody. Supreme Court Declslons, DES MOINES, Jan. 22.—(Special Telegram.) —The following supreme court decisions were filed today: John W.
