IT THEtrat PM
This year, Instead of a barbecue, the
Chamberlln-Johnson-DuBose Company
has decided to compliment It* army of
employee* with tt theater party, and
has reserved 400 seat* at the Grand

the Fawcett Stock Company, which le
making such a hit In that old Robeon-
Crane comedy.
For years It has been the custom of
this mammoth department itore to cel
ebrate the first half holiday In June,
when the store close* on Saturday at
noon, by giving their employees a big
barbecue at the Cold Spring Cue Club
grounds. This has been done for sev
eral seasons, and has always proved a
success, but this year a change was de-
*'The*’management cast ahout for n
diversion In entertainment and decided
that a theater party was the thing.
Negotiations ww *■*&
management of the tjkweett
Company, with the result that 400 re
served seat* were laid **hie tor Frl
day evening’* performance.
In thl* way the employee* are de
lightfully entertained by ‘heir appre
dative employer* and, In addition, the.
have their first half holiday to'do a

served compliment that the Fawcct

lected aa the amusement offered ini

SET J? aboSftalf of the/first fir.,
but there will be plenty of «*»{« '
the regular patrons who desire to at
tend this performance on that night.
Expecting to augment the fund for
the Jamestown trip several hundred
dollars by tho aham battle last Satur
day, but finding an actual loss of about
1500 Instead, a meeting of the officers
of the Fifth regiment has been called
for Wednesday evening to discuss the
situation.
The prospect for taking the entire
regiment to Jamestown for Georgia Day
la gloomy. The military ralr put about
11,500 In the regimental treasury. To
take tho entire regiment to Jamestown
would cost 10,000 for transportation
alone.
Then someone hit on tho scheme of
having the sham battle last Friday. But
tho expectation were far from realltod.
Tho battle was scheduled for Piedmont
iark, while aL Ponce DeLeon a new
aseball park was being opened—a
counter attraction that kept peoplo
away from Piedmont.
Expenses Incurred In tho sham bat
tle were heavy. Twenty-two thousand
rounds of ammunition were ordered
at a cost of 114.90 per thousand, total
ing 5546.60, Inclusive of express
charges, etc. A barbecue for three
thousand people was prepared. About
750 soldiers and many guests wire ted
free of chargo.
And for the battle exactly S.OOO tick
et* were sold at 25 cents each. When
the final accounting was made, gloom
spread over the officers of the Fifth,
for they saw the Jamestown trip van
lahing from among tbs possibilities.
Seven thousand rounds of ammuni
tion had to be shipped from an arsenal
in Pennsylvania, and It arrived Mon
day, and though paid for In advance, la
of no present use to the regiment.
With tble situation confronting them,
a meeting of the regimental officer* has
been called for Wednesday evening In
the headquarters on East Hunter street.
The outlook for the Jamestown trip Is
not very promising just now, though
ways may be devised at the meeting.

KEPT PRISONER 7 MONTHS,
GIRL ESCAPES FROM GYPSIES
New York, May 29.—Restored to her
father after seven month* of wander
ing, Anna Elnslg, a beautiful girl of 16
years, today told a remarkable etory of
captivity by gypelea and cruelty. She
was recovered after the police had
raided a camp of gypsies at Wakefield.
“Last October 1 was taken by this
gypsies from Columbia, Pa., where I
went to a fair," she said. “They load
ed me with flnery and promised me all
sorts of things and I went with them.
When we got on the rood, though, they
treated me cruelly. They took my
clothei away from me, giving me only
gypsy things to wear and made me
wait'on them. 1 could not get away
because 1 had nothing to wear and I
was watched all the time. Even at
night when I would try to steal away,
I would find some of them watching
me. Finally I gave up all hope of es
cape and settled down to gypsy life.”

The Ladles' Aid Society 1 of Dr.

great effort to rats* additional funds
for the charitable work of that great
