The attraction for next week by the George Fawcett Company, at the Grand opera house, will be the stirring drama, "Soldlere of Fortune." The book, by Richard Harding Davis, created a furore when It was first placed before the reading public. The stage version Is by Augustus Thomas, the well- known writer of typical American plays, among them "Alabama," "Ari zona," "In Mlzsourl," and others. The story Is one of adventure,, and the cen tral figure Is a man of action. The scenes are laid among the tron mines of the republic of Olancho, South America, and afford excellent oppor tunities for the abilities of the scenic artist. Those who admire exquisite gowning on the stage will be gratified this week, for although there are but three ladles In the cast, the originality and magnlfl cence of the costumes will make up for the lack of feminine members. Miss Phyllis Sherwood, as Hope Lang, ham, the plucky heroine, will wear several costumes of the sort every girl wants and should have, and the clever woman will get some Ideas for her summer wardrobe. Regan Hughston will play the part of Robert Clay, who, notwithstanding the tremendous excitement of an uprising among the natives, finds the chance to fall In love with the daughter of his employer, the vivacious Hope Long- ham. Miss Sherwood will be seen as Hope, for whom the revolution has no horrors. The cast Is long and the en tire company will appear. The other members of the east will be: DeWitt Jennings, as MacWllllams Brandon Hurst, os Captain Stuart Frank Craven, as Ted Langham; Burr Caruth, as Langham: Charles E. Inslee, as Captain Burke; Allen Fawcett, as Mr. King; George Schrader, as Gen eral Mendoza, and Brigham Royce, as President Alvarez. There will be a special matinee on the Fourth of July. “A stranger IN TOWN” COMES NEXT TO CASINO; A COMED\ WITH COMEDY Rattling Good Show Promised For Ponce. The Atlantans -who like a clean, wholesome comedy and good, honest, straightforward acting and stay away from "A' Stronger In Town," at the Casino next week, will miss a rare treat. Mr. Beamish, the star of this excellent production. Is well remember ed for his excellent work with the Hoyt comedies. "A Stranger In Town” is a rapid-fire, entertaining, wholesome farce, and Is played with the ginger and gravity that such pieces need to con vulse an audience, Mr. Beamish, In the role of Bartley Swift, the young husband who under, takes to lie out of a previous love af fair to his wife, results In a tangle that only happens In farces, and he Is master of the art of acting a scream ingly funny situation In the serious, half-desperate manner that Is tho life of such a situation. His methods of acting are clear-cut and sincere, and he possesses a clean, likeable person ality that, carries over the footlights Immediately. He has a striking per sonallty, keen Intelligence, and If hi sticks to the Ideals In his art, will make a name for hlmsett with the the atergoers of the country. The supporting company Is one of unusual excellence. Miss Rita Knight, ns Nancy Noyes, contributes a charm ing characterization In addition to beauty. She Is a clever actress and carries her part through with line re serve. ENTOMBED ALIVE; PURSE OFFERED FOR RESCUE OF NEGRO Special to The Georgian.

He haa realized this fact, and the result Is that not only has he secured a large number of attractions for next season, but circumstances and the eon. tlnued good patronage of the pleusure- Invlng public have caused him to send the hurry call for new attractions to be erected Immediately. Three new attractions are now on the way.
