In a letter from the plucky cltlsenesa of tha new re public Her appointment aa a leader of a corpe of men has already been promised her. tha letter continued, as a reward for her services to data In tba causa of tha revolution. To take np tha cauaa of the new re public actiyely Miss Jewell resigned from a remuneratlTe position as pri vate tutor to tba children of Quan Kal. tha millionaire "flour kin if of Hongkong-.

Both her father and mother, know ing her acuta sympathy with tha rebel cause, have repeatedly urged her to loin tha nursing squad of tha army If she felt that aba muat do something for the cauaa. but their plucky daugh ter has refused to bo satisfied with anything less than actual military service. It la reported In Chinese circles that tba leaders of tha republican move ment, particularly General U Yuan Hong, under whom aha will serve, are particularly anxious that tha girl should take the field, aa they believe her presence will have a great moral effect on tba rebel trfops. much as rrad the leadership of the Maid of Or leans on tha French aoldlera.

Her masterful knowledge of Knglish. as well as her thorough Chi nese education, enabled her to get a position In the Imperial School at Boo Cbow. Her work there attracted tha atten tion of Quan Kal. and tha Chlneaa mer chant prince persuaded tha American born girl to give up her work In the school and take np the instructions of his own children when she had bean teaching but four months In tha gov ernment service. She remained with the Hongkong mercbant'a family nntll a month ago, when she decided to en ter tha military service of tha new re public Last year Miss Jewell was engaged to a French nobleman attached to tba diplomatic service la Shanghai, bat broke the engagement, declaring she would rather marry an American.

Oscar Flgmaa ' Jack Tobla BT LKONB CASS BAKR. IT Is said, by no other veraolous au thority than the press agent himself, that "Madame Sherry" Is being pre sented by CS companies In tha United States, Austria, Germany, Franca, Eng land and Australia. Ona of tham came to tha Hellig last night. It la "Ma dame Sherry's" second time. A right warm welcome it received, too, and deservedly. Maria Flynn, who looks tha attrac tive blend pf French and Irish her name might suggest. Is tha Tvonna of thla season's company. A bit reminis cent of Ann Tasker In her dancing la tha dainty Mlas Flynn, Her voice la small and very clear, piercingly sweet In Its highest notes. She handles her votos with expression and musical knowledge. Miss Flynn Is a treat for tired optica and la amaslngly and plquanUy demurs as tba convent maid. Oscar Flgman Is back aa tha mil lionaire connoisseur of Greek art. The opbllus 6herry, who voices his con stant surprise. As before. Mr. Flg man Is an individual vaudeville number and gathers applause In chunks, almost stopping the show last evening. Ha still baa bis couple of aong knockouts, neither of them new any more, but nona tha less enjoyable aa he Interprets them, mlnua any particular tuna, but full of expression. These are "Ton Can't Argue" and "We're Only Poor Weak Mortals." Flo Irwin, a somewhat smaller edi tion of her famoua sister. May, who makes so much money back In New Tork that she never has to go a tour ing, is the housekeeping Catherine, who poses as Madame Sherry. She de llneatee tha Irish type, vaudeville type perfectly, even to the atmosphere a vivid green gown suggests, and bar scene when sha has looked too long upon the bubblea In her glass Is ludic rous and not at all broad. Miss Irwin's personality makes up for a total lack of voice, but her two ditties, "Pots and Pans" and "Goodby. Old Gal," brought repeated recalls. Virginia Folta la Penlta, the Spanish maid. Her "Dance of Danger"' and the Mad Madrid," In which her partner blithely picka her up and nonchalant ly twirls her about In midair, was ona of tha big bits, danced with William Cameron in the role of Phllllppe. who Is president of the Janitors' Associa tion, and husband of the masquerading Madame Sherry. Lillian Tucker, a re markably graceful, good-looking girl. who sings In an unaffected, wholly charming way. has the role of Lulu, the actress, and original dancer of the 'every little movement. A very fine baritone la heard In the singing of David Lithgoe. who has as Interesting a stage presence as young Gomes, who poses as one of Madame Sherry's children. Franklin Farnum admirably sustains the leading male role, Kdward Sherry, and his dancing with Miss Flynn Is especially skillful In Its execution of Intricate steps. In no sense does the quality of the staging differ from that of last sea son's "Madame Sherry," the nine chor us girls are exceptionally pretty and sing well. And while every cafe, grill. movlng-plcture shew and home has lta copy and rendition of "Every Little Movement." and the other melodlea In Madame Sherry, they are none the less tuneful and unforgettable. The Hellig will bouse tha attraction up to and Including Saturday evening with a matinee on that day. With Promises of Support to Admin istration, Need of Intervention by United States Becomes More Distant, HAVANA. Jan. 1. With the as surance made tonight to President Gomex by leaders of tha veterans' move ment that agitations would cease and tha veterans would support the admin istration loyally in bringing all Cubans together and in removing tha fainteat excuse for American Intervention, thera appears to be no doubt that the crista In Cuban affairs has been passed suc cessfully. Tha conference of the President with prominent men of all factions last night proved merely an exchange of views, no definite policy being formu lated. While the necessity of union and co operation was recognised on all sides there was one discordant note In tha attitude of the leaders ot the veterans, who seemed reluctant to surrender the fruits of their heretofore triumphant campaign, and were disposed to Insist upon the constitutional rights of the ouicers of the army and rural guard to take part In the movement. Opposition la Gome. That this opposition has completely surrendered lta position Is indicated by an official memorandum Issued tonight from tha palace after a long confer ence between the President and Gen eral Nunas and Colonel Coronado, ed itor of Discussion, representing the veterans. "Both veterans," the memorandum says, "declared It would be their fore most effort to restore amity and con fidence throughout the republic and re move tha slightest pretext that might endanger the Independence of tha country. They wera fully resolved to put an and to tha present veterana' campaign. "The veteran clubs ara to continue In accordance with their laws aa be nevolent and patriotic Institutions, In no way departing from the purposes defined In their constitutions. It also was pledged that this agreement promptly would be submitted to tne general council of veterana for legal rectification. President la Gratified. "The President Is greatly gratified at these declarations which he expect ed in view of the ardent love from tha country which has aver Inspired the I liberators of Cubs. While a definite policy has not been decided upon, and doubtless there will ba no further confarenoea, the adhesion of the veterana to the administration apparently removes ail possibility of disastrous discord. Probably tba first move would be the presentation In Con gress tomorrow of a bill rescinding the annulment of the civil service law and afflrml-g the equal right of all Cubans to bold office. ' - All the conferences so far hare been characterised by expressions of friend- ip and gratitude to tha United States. Secretary Knox' note Is regarded aa a warning issued In a friendly spirit and couched In terms which prohibited Its Interpretation as a threat. Doubtless President Gomex will notify the American Minister, Mr. Beaupre. that all cause for anxiety in Washington regarding the ability of the Cuban government to maintain or der has been removed. With the expiration of tha veteran movement, the hopea of General Nunea for the Presidency apparently have vanished.

What food I ate did not seem to digest, but felt like a lump in my stomach. My stomach would bloat with gas and was sour all of the time. I was so sore about the body that I could not bear to have my clothes touch me. Later I began to be troubled with rheumatism, which settled in my limbs. They were swollen and at times my arms were so stiff that I could not raise them. There was a dull, aching pain through the small o my back and for weeks I could not bend over. Nothing seemed to help me, although I tried many remedies, until I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People.
