AT THE THEATERS
Vaudavilla at the Casino.
Have you seen Ameta, In her robes
of'Are. her biaxe of rainbow lights?
She Is worth going all the way to
Ponce DeLeon to see, even If there were
no other attraction on the bill.
Ameta surprised an audience at the
Casino Monday night. There have
been mirror dancers and Are dancers
and serpentine dancers galore In At
lanta vaudeville, but Ameta Is some
thing new. Better take a trolley to
night and eefe her dance.
Very fair vaudeville In this week's
bill. Rice and Elmer do some first-
class stunts on the hopsontal bars.
Howell and 8cott have a Hebrew com
edy turn that It modeled more after
David Warfield's Jewish Interpretations
than the average Hebrew knock-about
turn. Some of their work la really
clever. Bartlett. Gorman and Bartlett
have a comedy sketch In which the
singing of one of the trio la rather
good.
Did you see "The Sleeping Beauty
and the Beast" last season at the
Grand? Harry DeVIne was the ring
leader of the comedy, and Bella Wil
liams was the prlncers beauty. Neither
lived up to their roles In that produc
tion. but they are doing a very clever
comedy sketch at the Casino.
There's another turn. He comes In
under the head of "Moving Pictures,"
and seems to be traveling Incognito.
He Is Wise. During the ten minutes
apent In carving pictures out of paper
and sticking them on a colored back
ground. the audience umused Itself
; wondering how he got past the stugc
door and what was his excuse for
drawing a salary. But he didn't stay
on long.
There are performances all this week,
with matinees on Tuesday. Thursday
and Saturday.
"East Lynne" at Grand.
The presentation of "East Lynne"tat
the Grand Monday night marked the
beginning of the end of thA engage
ment of the George Fawcett Stock
Company In Atlanta.
The very fact that "Bast Lynne” was
the play was indication enough dnd
proof positive that It was the Inst week
of the engagement. Miss Wheatley,
as Madame Vine; Regan Hughslon, as
Archibald Carlyle, and DeWIlt Jen
nings, as Sir Francis Levlson, had the
•Important roles of the play and took
splendid care of them.
To Miss Phyllis Sherwood, as Joyce,
fell the Important duty of relieving the
strain of pathos and tragedy that runs
consecutively through Ave acts, and
she succeeded nobly.
This Is the tenth and last week of
the summer engagement of the com
pany. The company collsctlvely and
the members Individually have shown
a merit and ability far away and above
that of the average stock company, and
It Is with genuine regret that the the
ater-going public see them leave.
“East Lynne" will be on the entlri?
Week, with the usual matinees.

An automobile bill, even more dras
tic than any previously Introduced In
the legislature, and one that apparent
ly provides every practical precaution
that Is possible for the protection of
pedestrians and animals on the high
ways and roads of the state, has been
offered In the house by Hon. Madison
Bell, of Fulton, and Is now spending
before the general ^officiary commit
tee.
The bill Is pre-eminently a state
measure, providing for state regulation
of the aulmoblles, the granting of state
lenreses and thus Insuring the same
restrictions all over the state. It meeta
with the hearty Indorsement of the
Atlanta Automobile and Good Roads
Club, and seems to have the approval
of the automobile owners of the state
generally.
In the Arst place, the bill Is more
dr Anile than any bill yet presented, the
principal and most commendabl *
ture being that It Is a state blit.
It provides for a tag In front as welt
as In the rear, thus giving those who
may be Insured or whose property may
be damaged by a careless driver a bet
ter opportunity of learning the number
and driver of the machine.
It provides for one set of tags and
only one, these to have only the state
numbers. In other words, nn auto
mobile owner or driver can not cause
confusion by having the tags of other
states on his machine, as some do now.
The drivers pf machines who are not
owners, and who, therefore, have little
responsibility and oftentimes small care
In handling machines, must wear
bodges to be provided by the state.
Penalties are provided where persons
wearing such badges violate any -'re
visions of this act.
No intoxicated person and no person
under 18 years of age shall be allowed
to operate an automobile.
The license to he Issued by the state
shall cost 83, Instead of the fee of It
exacted now.
Only one kind ol horn—the "honk,
honk" kind—can be used on automo
biles.
A maximum speed of 20 miles an
hour Is Axed. The game maximum
shall be enforced In all countlea and
cities. \
Every automobile driver shall stop
his machine when signaled to do so by
Ihe rider or driver of a restive horse,
mule or other domestic animal.
The An« for an Intoxicated person
driving an automobile shall be not
gienter than 8100. For violation of any.
of the other provisions of this act, the
Ane shall be not less than 810. For
subsequent offenses the Anea are great-
The bill seems to combine all the
commendable features of other bills,
and to eliminate the features that are
objectionable to both sides, and It will
probably be adopted by the general
assembly.

OLD DEKALB WAS PIONEER
IN PR OHIB17 ION MO VEMEN 7
ASKED FOR 7HE LAW7N 1882
Judge H. H. Walker
Was Foreman of
Grand Jury.
Perhaps the pioneer movement for
state prohibition in Georgia was In
augurated by the grand Jury of De-
Kalb county In Ha presentments at a
special session of the September term,
1882.
That grand Jury had as Its foreman
Judge Henry H. Walker, who Is still
living at the advanced age of 84 yean
In Norcroas. The presentments of that
grand jury were published In The De-
Kalb News, edited by Ernest N. Word.
A copy of The News has been furnished
The Georgian. After calling attontlon
to county matters, the presentments
closs with ths following;
"We can not close this report and
pass unnoticed the baneful effects of
intemperance and drunkenness that
>revall to an alarming extent In near-
y every community where retail liq
uor shops are permitted to exist. The
effectn on ths county where situated,
iwlng out of this unnecessary traf-
and sale of liquors, are but too well
known to need recital by this body,
and demands very serious considera
tion.
Grand Jury’s Report.
The evidences of evil are *o nu
merous that we are at a loss how to
enumerate them. These whisky shops
are both a private and public nuisance
and a Pandora's box In every com
munity where situated: affording op
portunity and encouraging drunken
ness; spreading this bsastly habit and
contagion; widening Its bitter streams
with its damning and withering Influ
ences upon every phase of society.
Invading even the home of the pious
and good; Instigating the commission
of crime'; corrupting the ballot box
demoralising the youths of the county
Increasing the burden of taxes; tilling
the criminal dockets of our courts with
the charges of crime and tilling our
jails and chalngangs with Us victims.
“This awful malady of human de<
structlon marches on with dagger In
hand, leaving Its crimson stain upon
our records and blackening the history
of our county. Producing Its woes and
tnlssry with the orphans' cry and wld
ows’ wall Inscribed upon Its banners
beggary, want and bankruptcy follow
Ing In the wake of Its dark chasm of
crime, human wos and misery.
“As the records of our criminal courts
abundantly show, neither age nor sex
are exempt from Its ravages. Thera
Is, In our opinion, no other agent so
potent In ths hands of his Satanic Ma
jesty, the Dsvll, for the destruction
of human family aa thla evil; fastening
and dooml
ment for
their graves.

Nefarious Traffic.
“Thla authority to sell la obtained
under the guise of public necessity for
sale for chemical and medicinal use.
We are at a loee to aee the wisdom of
a policy for the state of Georgia, or the
United Htntes, to take auch a step
backwards In thla miserable, humlllat
Ing echeme or policy In order to In
create revenues by peddling out prlvi
leges for Its tale, knowing beforehand
the curse and evil that la certain to re
sult from thla nefarious business and
truffle.
"We might ask with what dagree of
honesty or consistency can our legis
lature enact a law to punish a crime
that It has sold a license to commit?
We feel that It le our Imperative duty
as wall as that of all good cltlxens to
redress thla tide of evil and woe, which
Is growing and fastening Its fangs of
destruction In Ita victims, to be loosed
only In death.
We. therefore, respectfully recom
mend and urge our representatives to
the general assembly to procure the
passage of an act making It unlawful
to grant license to retail or tell liquor
In DeKalb county or the state, only
upon the concurring recommendations
of two grand Juries at two successive
terms of the superior court, and we call
upon all good cltlxens of our county tc
aid In the enactment of such law, and
we declare that wo will not support or
advocate the election of any man to the
legislature from this county who will
not use his utmost power to procure
this relief for his people and country."

. In speaking of this pioneer mova-
raant, Judge Walker recently said:
“a Legalised Evil.”
"It was both unwise and unconstltu
tional for the legislature of Georgia to
organise and legalise an evil to curse
the people of the state. Our general
presentment In Do Kalb was In the na
ture of an Indictment of the general as
sembly for licensing bar rooms to invite
the commission of crime, and then
laws to punish the crime Itself.
"Th- action of the legislature of 1907
In rising In their majesty and throwing
off the yoko of oppression from the peo
ple will go down In history along with
the faun- of the Immortal founder of
American Independence.
"The DeKalb grand Jury of 1882 sow
sd the seed that has ripened to full
fruitage In this good year. Georgia
will be the first of the Southern states
to threw off this curse, and her action
will And quick emulation In other
states."
