Vaudeville and Concert and
Thanksgiving Dinner
Planned.
ORR’S HOLIDAY OPENING
Thanksgiving Day behind stone
walls will bring something worth while
to the men and women In the Federal
prison, the weary ones shut out for
years from all that goes to make the
world bright and* happy—the workers
to whom a day is but a period to be
finished and passed behind, a mile
stone on the Jong way.
f Warden Moyer- and his associates
will give the convicts> real Thanksglv-
'D&y„ a holiday -Wth '
lng
a holiday when no work
tainmenti Food apeh as they know
but seldom, music—and real vaudeville,
a really truly* theatrical show—are on
the program for the day.
There ate men of many vocations be
hind the bars. Bin' belongs to' no class
and the record of the prison shows that
almost every calling of mankind Is rep
resented upon the long roster. And
among the men whp are waiting for
their release to come are musicians,
men to whom music was life itself, .but
who have almost forgotten the touch of
a violin string, to whom the strains of
a waltz are but a memory.
The Convicts' Concert.
Can't we have some mu&lc on the
Thanksgiving Day?" was the petition
sent to Warden Moyer a short time
ago. "Let us give a concert
And the warden Consented, for Is not
Thanksgiving Day Unclq Bain’s own
holiday, and should he not give his
charges a bit of pleanure once a year?
So it was nil arranged. For several
weeks the convict musicians have used
their spare time In rehearsals, and they
promise to give a concert worth hear
ing.
"I'd like to help a bit," said Man
ager Ben Kahn, of lhe Orpheum, when
he was told of the Thanksgiving plans
at the prison. "I’ll bring my whole
show out that day, If you’ll let me.'
And so It was all arranged. The
acrobats can not take their elaborate
paraphernalia, but all the rest will go.
Charlie Sweet, the "burglar," will show
the real burglars and second-story men
(n hfs unique audience how a stage
burglar works, though few of them will
believe that any real "Raffles” would
stop In a house to do stunts

well and the rest will all contribute to
the show, which will be given: In the

BULL GAP MYSTERY
SOLVED IN COURT
So Well”
This refers to the Chef in the big hotel who made rolls no
cook oould excel—
Mrs, W, II, Rmerson, of 175 Ashby street. West End, con
cluded last week’s Capitola, Limerick verse with the line—
“HE USED ‘CAPITOLA’ SO WELL,”
and was awarded first prize of $10.00 in gold.
tc
Three Cheers for
Capitola” They Yell!
This was the concluding line which won second prize of
$5.00 in gold and was awarded to Mrs. W. B. Senn, 396 Cen
tral nvenue.
And last week’s list of praises for Capitola is a vociferous
echo of the sentiments of Mrs. Senn, whose first thought of
Capitola in connection with the Limerick verse was a sponta
neous outburst.
Three Cheers for “Capitola” They Yell!
this week we have made a new division of the prize money,
offering eleven prizes in gold instead of two, as follows: 1st
prize, $5.00 in gold for the best line, and ten prizes of $1.00
each in gold for the ten next best lines. This affords an in
creased opportunitv for contestants to win.
TheVollowing is the CapitolaXimerick verse for this week:
A young lady whose front name was Joe,
Never lacked for a suitable beau—
Her bread, cake and pies
At the Fair took the Prize,
Now then, all together, everybody (ns the “all-day singing”
master says), get a good start by phoning or sending to your
grocer for a sack of Capitola Flour, write a concluding rhym
ing line to above “Limerick,” cut out the word Capitola
from your Capitola sack and mail or send both to our office,
nnd be in line for a prize. ... „. „
Completing line is to end with a word rhyming with beau.
Be sure nnd date your line\ind send in your answer early, an
in case of an accepted prize lino having more than one repre
sentative, priority of date will determine the award. Contest
closes Saturday at noon.

It was a deep mystery and It re

$Ut after the mystery of Bull Gap road
was Injected Into the Controversy,
moonshine whisky went back to the
tall timber where It naturally belonged.
One of the witnesses told about
traveling along Bull Gap road. Colo
nel Tom Greer, with his suit of home
spun and long hair on his shoulders,
defended Southern and he asked more
about Bull Gap. One of the Jurors
asked about It, too. District. Attorney
Carter Tate took up the line of ques
tioning and sought information about
Bull Gap. Ho It wasn’t long before Bull
Gap yoad had forged to the front and
the defendant. Isaac Southern, and the
moonshine whisky found near Bull Gap
road became minor considerations.
Bull Gap road got to bo a regular
Peachtree or Great White Way Just
because some Illicit whisky was found
near the road and ,because the said
Isaac Southern lived near this now fa
mous thoroughfare nnd was suspected
of having some connection with It.
The Jury retired and In a short time
the Jury returned, like the king of
Spain’s soldiers. The Jury said Isaac
Southern was not guilty.
The mystery of Bull Gap road was
solved.
