If there are any terms of praise that have not already been applied to the George Fawcett Stock Company, the critic would appreciate the favor If called to hla attention. The company gave a splendid and an altogether delightful presentation of Hall Caine's masterpiece, "The Chris tian," at the Grand Monday night, but all the ready adjectives. It Is learned have already been lavished upon the members for other splendid perform ances. It was quite the largest audience of the summer season that greeted the company Monday night, and certainly no audience of previous nights was more pleased. "The Christian” In It self It a difficult play to produce, snd It abounds In roles that art difficult. And yet, with a nnlsh truly artistic, with a perfect care for every little de tall remarkable for a stock company, and even more unusual on a first night, ahd with a mastery of technique on the part of the principals, ths play waa presented In such a manner aa to leave room for only silght criticism, even If there had been a maturity of expert ence on the part of the entire caat. Flaws there were and flaw* there probably always will be on a first night Miss Jane Wheatley mode a eplendld Glory Quayle, the mischievous, care free girl of the woods, but as Gloria, ths music hall belle, she did not have qulto the vivacity, the dash, tho sip, that one la wont to associate with such a part. In the last acenee, when the scales began to fall from her eyes, her Interpretation and delineation were again well-nigh perfect. Regan Hughston. as John Storm, made the real hit of the evening. Mi Hughston Is blessed with a well mod ulated voice and a commanding atage Tesence, which add luster to any part e portrays. The play Is well staged. The mob was not mob-llke and did not d enough mobbing, but It will probabl; Improve with age. "The Christian” wll be on all the week. "All the Comforts of Home." If "laugh and grow fat” fa an axiom of good repute, then Atlanta's thin population has an excellent opportuni ty to wax corpulent by journeying out to the Ponce DeLeon Casino, where William Gillette's comedy, "All the Comforts of Home," will be presented every night this week. The company made Its Initial ap pearance at Ponce DeLeon Monday night under most adverse circum stances, ths drisxtlng rain and threat ening weather keeping all but the most herdy away from the park. Conse quently the show was witnessed by an audience which did not approach any thing like the proportions the play merited. But nevertheless, ‘‘All the Comforts of Home” captivated the In lereet of tho spectators throughout the four acts and It waa one contlnuoua round of laughter from the rising of tho curtain to the falling thereof. Ths effort of an enterprising young men to make money during ths ab sence of his uncle by renting the house of the latter to roomers, furnishes the reel from which the two hours and a half of fun Is unwound. There Is little music, no singing and no dancing, which Is unusual for a comedy, but there are plenty of good jokes, witty remarks, comical situations and the like to keep any audience in n frenzy of merriment. "All the Com forts of Home" Is well worth seeing. Pastime Theater. This week's bill at the Pastime The- atei on Peachtree street eeeme des tined to make that little home of vaude ville one of the most delightful of At lanta's many summer resorts. The Mu sical Stlpps pleased and delighted be yond measure. During their turn, which lasted twenty minutes, nearly every known musical Instrument was handled and sweet airs elicited from each. Heins nnd Beatle, the clever comedy team, presented an original playlet which mndo an Instantaneous lilt. Miss Anna Stelnborn made great hit by her sympathetic ren< tions of popular ballade. The stere optlcon views shown while she song were particularly apropos. Miss Kelly brought the bill to a eloee by her songs ond dances. There are performances dally at 3 and 4 o'clock and each even Ing continuously from 7:30 o'clock. “Inaugural Carnival." All the preparations are now com pleto for the "Inaugural Carnival 1 which Is to be held In the rink of the St. Nicholas Auditorium at Ponce De Leon park Saturday night.
