F., (net la«t Friday night, at the hall, cor ner of Moore and Decatur streets, with 4 large at tendance, Fulton Lodge Is having a very pros perous term, the third club having •tartad through. The lodge has one of the best halls In the city and can bonst of being the only lodge In the city that owns Its own hall. Much Interest Is being manifested In the work of the lodge. At the present rate that applications ire coming In the membership will be materially increased by the first of the year. a recent meeting of Fuiton Lodge, Odd Fellows, resolutions sympathy were adopted on the death of three well known members of the lodge, the late C. D. Camp, assistant United States district attorney; O. W. Wilson and B. L. Hartline: The resolutions follow': C. b. Camp. To Fulton Lodge, No. 32, I. 0.-0. F.: Today we are called upon to cast our eyes to the lonely spot that leaps our unwilling footsteps to the side of the little mound where rests In peace ful slumber that knows no waking, the earthly form of our beloved brother, Past Grand C. D. Camp. The sun that rose with a smile at the waking of the gray dawn, has gone down at the meridian of noontide. The sparkling rill that leaped from rpek to rock on Its careless travel through the canyons that crease * the hills, and mountains, has ceased the way of go ing. The broad and placid river, whose glistening waters danced In the shining glow' of the smiling sunlight, as It flowed In majestic silence through the emerald valley, no longer dassle the eye with their shimmering beauty. The flowers that had shed their Sweetest fragrance upon the pathw'&y of life, the leaves that clothed the trees In a garb of verdant loveliness, and the vel vet carpet which was spread over the peaceful bosom of Mother Earth, have all faded before his mortal gaze, with ered by the di*y breath of the power that men call death. Yet, when the morning comes again, the sun Will shine as bright as It did yesterday. When the heavens pour forth their tears of Joy, the springs and the rivu lets, the rills and the rivers, will hurry on as before, In their Journey of Joy and happiness. When the springtime comes again the flower* will once more send forth their fragrance upon the balmy air of eventide; the trees will again he clothed In their garlands of vernal loveliness, and the velvet carpet will once more appear upon the earth. 80 will our beloved Brother Camp, who has vanished from the palo of our mor tal vision. He will rise again, and shine In the firmament of the heavens, as a star of the first magnitude, as a sun of Infinite glory. He will walk beside the majestic river of life upon the boundless universe, as a song of the waters, upon the fading twilight of the drowsy old day. His example of fra ternal friendship and sweet loving charity will live on and on through the endless ages. TIs a sad wind that tells us of his going away. ’Twas a bright glow of sunbeams that reflected the glory of his pure life In the souls of the mem bers of the fraternal family he so much loved. ’TIs a dark cloud that now comes nnd whispers to us In Its own silent voice that his llfy work on earth Is ended. Yet, through all our sadness, there comes the still, small voice that whispers: There Is no death; that what men call death Is but the passing of a soul from a W'orld of beauty to a world of greater beauty. From the inmost recess of our hearts there Is something that tells us that this earth ly habitation, which surrounds our un dying souls. Is but a cloak, which must some time be put away and given back to Mother Earth, from whom It was borrowed. Fraternally, J. B. M’MIUHAEL. B. A. BRAY, L. A. HOLLY. • t , Committee. G. wTwilson. ... the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, nnd all that Is contained therein, hut hit masterpiece was man, whom he created In his own Image, to rule the universe. - And since that day man has multi plied arid flourished, but there are i great many who do not live up to the standard that God Intended they should. And yet there are others who It seems more than make up for the shortcom ings of their brothers, by living air Ir reproachable life—an affectionate hus band. an Indulgent father, an Ideal neighbor, and a model Odd Fellow. 8uch a man was our brother, G. W. Wilson, and, whereas the All-Seeing Eye saw fit to remove him from our midst, on August 29, 1906, therefore., be It Resolved, first. That In the death of Brother Wilson, Fulton Lodge, No. 32, I. O. 6. F., loses one of Its most en thusiastic members, whose place can not be filled, and the remembrance of whom time cannot efface. Second, That this lodge extends to his bereaved family our deepest sym- ithy; with the assurance that their sn Is our loss, but heaven's gain. Third, That a copy of these resolu tions be sent to the family of Brother Wilson, The Atlanta News and The At lanta Georgian. | Fourth, That our charter and regalia be draped for thirty days In honor of the memory of our departed brother. Respectfully submitted, JOHN E. WHITE, E. A. BAUGH AN, N. H. MATTHEWS, Committee. B. L. Hartline. We are again called upon to witness the passing away of one of our most beloved brothers. God, In his Infinite wisdom, has seen fit to call from us to the great beyond, our beloved brother. B. L. Hartline, whom we recognized and appreciated as a brother and friend: His demise forcibly reminds us that all that Is bom must die, passing through death to eternity, and ndmon- Ishos us of the Importance of keeping our house In order, ready for the call of the grim messenger. Resolved, That In the departure of our brother from this lodge, we have lost a brother whom we respected for his kind disposition and his unswerving loyalty to the principles of friendship, love and truth. Resolved, That while we humbly nnd reverently acknowledge the superior wisdom and power of God, whose voice Is heard In the solitude of the pathless woods, in the thunder of the waterfall, that He doeth all things well, yet we cannot refrain from mourning the loss of one so true to the principles of Odd Fellowship.

Joiner, one of the West known Masons In Georgia, was recently presented with a beautiful past master's jewel by Atlanta lodge, one of the features of the occasion be Ing the e|oquent presentation speech of Hon. James L. Mayson, whose oratory has won a wide reputation. The speech of Mr. Mayson was as "A wise iiinn hhs wild, ‘We seek for Imp- pines* In strlrln# for things which.

Yet Mil the while the God. who gives us sir for esch breath—nltd fslleth not—has also piled happiness all around, nnd we have but to reach forth and pluck the rosy fruit—eat, drink nnd In* merry. Pardon me for quoting words I like so II, ‘The home where virtue dwells with happiness Is the fairest flower In all the world; where your wife Is queen ami you a loyal subject;* where a busy little wife keeps her busy hands going all the day long—pressing down n thousand cares -and building up u thousand Joys; where the music of children's laughter rlplles through the home like a murmuring brook through n forest; where at nightfall the good wife gathers up the little ones, und, with the assistance of much soup nnd wa ter. patience and prayer, persuades the dirt to leave the chubby hands mid dim pled' cheeks, and then she gnthers them about her—to tell them of papa—what n great nnd good man he Is, and how they must meet nml greet his return. Their little hearts swell with prble for their papa. and. when the expected one strides In, they cover, him with a shower of lit tle arms and caresses, until his tired limbs take new courage—his drooping spir its rise, ami he holds up his head as a king coming to his own; where, nt Christ- mnstldc papa and mamma, with knowing glance*, tell many ,ji story of the wonder- drop a tear upon the page anil blot forever.’ Money nor ambitious power can give one smile of this happy home, nor reprofluce one note of Its childish glee. ’’Next to the home, the friendships of the lodge must fake rank In the Temple >f Earthly Happiness.

This year It la "Wonder land," staged by Julian Mitchell and fresh from a success In the East. Jane Kennark, who will present Vio la Allen's last play, "The Toast of the Town," is well known in Atlanta. Last season she presented “The Eternal City,” another of Mias Allen’s successes, and created a very favorable impres sion. Miss Kennark wets associated with a stock company In the South several years ago and her remarkable versatility was shown In her ability to Interpret widely differing roles with each weekly change of bill. In "The Toast of the Town" she has the sub ject of much favorable comment by leading critics. Sidney Toler la coming to the Bijou again in "How* Baxter Butted In." one of the beat comedies on the Bijou cir cuit last season. The popular priced house should be filled to capacity dur Ing the week. * "Wonderland.” After a long and successful run at (he Majestic Theater last season and scoring one of the few musical come dy hits of the metropolitan year, "Won derland” will be the attraction Monday and Tuesday at the Grand. Wonderland” Is the musical off spring of Victor Herbert, and the book and lyrics are the product of Glen Mc Donough's brain. It Is a production nf Julian Mitchell, who waa responsi ble tor those two notable extrava- ganxas, the "Wlsard of Ox” and "Babes In Toyland," and Is aald to be the masterpiece of his well-known taate and ability In color and stage effects. Its story Is of the fairy-tale kind, such as Mr. Mitchell delights In for their opportunities In startling and unusual scenes and transformations, and la aald to be diverting and amusing. Man ager Joseph M. Galtes, who controls the destinies of "Wonderland,” has en gaged a large, well-balanced company, at the head of which he has placed Little Chip and Mtft-y Marble. He has also brought the entire production that was used during the successful 'run of the piece at the Majestic Theater last season. "The Toast of tha Town.” Jane Kennark, last aeen here In “The Eternal City," wjll present Clyde Kltch'a play, "The Toast of the Town," at the Grand next Wednesday and Thursday. When It was announced that Mr. Fitch had written a new play It waa taken for granted that It was a modern society comedy, This did not follow, for the author's most lasting success, "Beau Brummell,” was laid In "old and golden days." It was but natural that Mr. Fitch should have harkened back to the Georges and again prospected In a domain which had yielded such rich dramatic ore. Brummell waa the hero of his first Georgian play, while Betty Singleton Is the heroine of hla liter effort. Mis* Kennark has appeared In dra ma* laid In various periods of time. The chief requisite has always been thnt the play be a good one. While certain periods are more qlctureSque than others, a moving story, finally told and capitally presented, la so al luring that Its locale la of second con sideration. Unquestionably Miss Kon* nark would not have hesitated at a drama laid In modern time, for she has appeared In several tn recent years, notably "T|io Eternal City.” "The Toaat of the Town" deals with characters of a former age, the pict uresque period of George the Third. In this play Mlsa Kennark Impersonates Betty 8lngleton. a famous actress of the time. Mlaa Kennark'* company for this season la an excellent one and embraces such well-known perform er* as Karl Anthony, Lellla Vane, Ber tha Livingston, Mnurtce W. Stewart, Dorothy L* Mar, Mr. Warren Dahler. The engagement will Include a mat inee Thursday afternoon. SCENE FORM "WONDERLAND" AT THE GRAND. 8IDNEY TOLER IN "HOW BAXTER BUTTED IN.’ "How Baxter Butted In." Owen Davis' latest play, that much talked of combination of character comedy and rural drama, "How Baxter Butted In,” la the offering at the Bijou next, week. "How Baxter Butted In' appeals not only to lovers of good high class melodrama, but to those who enjoy truthful characterisation of types of every-day Ilfs. Baxter Is a commercial traveler, and In the courae nf business drifts Into a country hotel In a little town In Ver mont. In this hotel he meets a young girl, the step-daughter of the tight- fisted old miser who owns the place. This girl, In defending the good name of her brother, who Is accused of theft, I* turned out of doors and publicly disgraced before the whole village. This Is where Baxter "butts In," and he butta In to such good purpose that the girl and her brother are restored to their former place In the esteem of their neighbors and the persona who have connived and plotted against them are caught and punished. Baxter's victory over the young girl's enemies la only won after many exciting adventures, and before hla final success he has quite captured the hearts of all the young people of the town. The part of Baxter la i moat complex character study and de mends an actor who ta equally at home In strong dramatic scenes and In com edy. The title role la enacted by Sid ney Toler, an actor of note nnd varied experiences. A "Cohan Show” Coming. George M. Cohan's most famous suc cess, "Forty-five Minutes from Broad way,” will be presented at the Grand aa an early booking. The play cornea here direct from a year's run In New York and Chicago, having been pre sented twenty weeks In the former and thirty weeks In the latter city to enor mous receipts. Messrs. Klaw A Er- langer have given Mr. Cohan’s bright and witty play a good production and a cast of much prominence headed by Corlnne. For his funmaking the young play wright seised upon the harmless vil lage .of New Rochelle, on the New York, New Haven and Hartford rail road, which Is only a short run from the metropolis, and brought to Its sleepy precinct* a number of wide awake New Yorkers, who are In despair at being settled In a town that goes to bed at 10 o'clock, and cannot boast a single cafe. The story of tha play la told In such a novel manner as to be really absorbing—and Incident succeeds Incident In rapid order. Real comedy is the basis of the piece. Corlnne la irresistible In the role ol Mary Jane Perkins, the housemaid of the deceased millionaire. She la giv en a splendid part, and brings raro and delicate Interpretation to tho role of the almplo Mary, who Is all heart, with her smtlea and tears, her puna and witty sallies. The music of the play Is composed In; Mr. Cohan's best style, two of the songs, "Mary Is a Grand Old Name," and "So Long, Mary," having acquired Immense popularity everywhere. Al G. Field”Minstrels. Al Field came again Friday night with hla retinue of silk-clad singers and as always the Grand was filled to a point where even the standing room sign was taken down. That the crowd liked the show waa evident in the ap plause that followed every hit. It would be n waste of space to at tempt a criticism of a minstrel show. Men go to the minstrels who never vis- It any other form of entertainment. They go to laugh and they do laugh. They have no stundard for romparlson except the minstrels of other seasons. They believe that they got thetr money's worth and If a hundred laughs for a dollar—one cent a laugh—la not cheap enough the fun-seeker should walk out to Grant park and look at the monkeys. Al Field In 190* Is neither better nor worse than the Al Field of 1905 or 1904, or any of the seasons In the past de cade. There are many of the old faces recognisable, even under the burnt cork of minstrelsy. There are new ones which may In their turn be come old favorites. 8ome of the old singer* are missing—notably Reese Prosser. There were thousands who liked Prosser's falsetto notes, hut If there Is a flaw worth calling attention to In the show this season It Is that Mr. Field has too many of these piccolo voices on his program. It Is all tenor or falsetto—not a single well-rounded baritone or basso Is given a solo num ber. Pres* Eldrtdge Is the master of the high Jinks and he has 'em going. His monologue In the olio, ending with his song limericks, was the best feature of the program. Al Field and Doc Quig ley had their usual dialogue, which has not changed materially. The Gridiron Club is still there with no new guests. Harry Van Fossen, whose foghosp voice ■hook the rafters In "Where Is Brown?" made himself one of the favorites. The first part Is beautifully staged, the en semble singing and the novelty turns at the close gnve satisfaction to the spectators. The engagement Is for Sat urday afternoon and night. D. G. been hoped by mnny lover* of the stage thot (lie old churncter, created by Joseph Jefferson nnd so closely Identified with him, would ho nllowed to die when Jefferson died. "Rip Vsn Winkle'' was not a greet play—It waa Joseph Jefferson yln> made It grent. Ills son could easily afford to choose another vehicle for the display of hit tal- eut, "On Pnrnle," a drama of the civil war, said to be written from the Mnuthern standpoint, was presented st Washington Inst week by Charlotte Walker and Vincent .Serrano before nn andleure largely com posed of army offleera, who gave It a hourly reception. The play la by I sails Kvan Shipman, a Southerner, and tho Virginia nt- mosphore Is sabl to be remarkably faithful' to tho Old Dominion. Lew Dockatndor opened hla now minstrel at Chicago this week, and the critics seeiu to like I-ew aa mueb as ever. Reese Prosser, whose voice was for yean one nf the chief attractions of Al G.
