HOW MISS JERRY
Mg A HIT.
Something That is Coming to
Interest the People of
Macon.
MARION CRAWFORO TOO.
Both of the Good Attractions Are to
be Here Next Month—Some
thing About Both of Them.
When Alexander Block’s “Miss Jerry”
i was announced the critics and dramatic
| prophets with one voice began to cry
' failure.
i That photography should invade the
i fields of drama pictorial art seemed be
yond belief.
But from the very start. “Miss Jerry”
was an overwhelming success. Presented
to a crowded house upon its first niAt—
a crowded house made up almost eirtt.ely
of the curious and the critical —"Miss
Jerry” continued to draw in spite of dire
ful prophecies to the contrary. Those who
on trie first night come to scoff remained
to enjoy; and came again.
From New York, where it was first put
on the boards, “Miss Jerry” was taken to
London and there the picture-play made
Ihe distinctive success of the season of
’!'s and ’96. Night after night the play
was presented .to the largest mid most cul
tured audiences of London. From London
tin. play came back to New York and was
a “sure winner” again last season.
On February 12th “Miss Jerry” will be
presented at matinee and evening per
formance as one of the regular Library
I-.yce u m a t tractions.
Like every other work of genius its sim
plicity appeals to childhood as well as age.
Being a picture-play, its story is so clear
that the smallest child may understand
and enjoy it. For this reason—-and in
order that the children may be taught
what wonderful things it is possible to do
with pictures—the Library directors have
arranged for a “Miss Jerry” matinee for
which duly advertised rates will be an
nounced for school children. As there are
only two matinees billed for the remainder
of Macon's theatrical season it is safe to
predict that “Miss Jerry” will be present
ed to a packed house.
The coming of Mr. Marion Crawford’ to
lecture for the Library is the grandest
victory yet achieved by the managers of
the Library Lyceum.
It is unquestionably "carrying coals to
Newcastle” to speak to Macon people of
Mr. Crawford’s power and Charm as a
novelist; but it may interest them to know
that as a lecturer he holds his own. with
the best although lecturing is for him a
"new departure” and something in the
nature of a "literary lodlF”
In December Mr. Crawford delivered his
lecture upon Pope Leo XIII. before a rep
resentative Boston audience. It is well
known that a lecturer who pleases .Boston
and passes successfully the test of her
critics bears off the palm and is victor in
this lecture field. Harper’s Weekly in
speaking of Mr. Crawford's Boston lecture
is as nearly enthusiastic as that conserva
tive journal ever becomes when writing
of Boston. ‘Mr. Crawford clearly took
"the Hub” by storm.
“It is clear that Mr. Crawford is able—
as no other American can be—-to speak
I wI th assurance about matters pertaining
to Pope Leo Xlll—that grand old man
who with Gladstone stands prominently
■before the world in the sublimity of his
vigorous and consecrated age—‘tlhe most
notable and the most forceful personality
of his time. .Being a Catholic thoroughly
in touch with the church, Mr. Crawford
is almost as liberal and as broad-minded
as the Pope himself, and therefore thor
oughly furnished in all points to talk
both entertainingly and instructively about
‘Pope Leo and the Vatican.’
"As this lecture is so distinctively edu
cative in its tendency the Lyceum man
agement has decided to make special rates
for school and colleges whose pupils are
seated in a body. Special rates will also
be made to Lyceum subscribers, since this
is an extra attraction which was secured
by purest good fortune and most unex
peett dly.
The St. Joseph Cadets in compliment to
Mr. Crawford will attend in a body in full
dress uniform; and also in compliment of
the distinguished speaker Fathers Brislan
and Winkelreid will be asked to occupy
seats on the rostrum.
Mr. Crawford expected to return to his
home in Italy immediately after Christ
mas: but owing to his unexpected success
as a lecturer he was induced remain in
America to make the tour upon which he
is at present engaged.
It must be borne in mind that Mr.
Crawford did not mean to be a lecturer.
It is an instance of glory being thrust
1 upon a man. Lecturing, or rather talking,
at first simply to gratify the wishes and
requests of a number of close personal
friends who were convinced of his powers
in this line and who desired to make use
of them for the furtherance of some of
those “pet” charities to which the world
of fashion nowadays devotes itself. Mr.
Crawford soon awoke to find himself the
lecture-lion of the day. Professionally,
Mr. Crawford is not a lecturer. He is a
literary man—a novelist and (latterly) a
very clever essayist. His victorious career
as a lecturer is as amusing to him as it
is to those of his admirers who know him
best, who are his close personal friends
-and who. in a large measure are respon
sible for this additional leaf in his already
weighty laurel-crown of popularity.

At th e residence of .the bride's mother,
Mrs. A. E. Seifert, at 8:30 o’clock last
night Miss Alma Elizabeth Seifert was
married to Mr. Edward B. Causey, Rev.
H. O. Judd, officiating. The handsome res
idence was handsomely decorated with
palms and ferns and lovely white roses
a-nd carnations. The wedding march was
finely rendered by Miss Minnie Black
shear, and the bridal party entered the
parlor in the following order: Miss Doris
Seifent, maid of honor, wearing a hand
some yellow satin gown and carrying
Marechai Niel roses; then came the best
man, Mr. Edwin Winters, and the bridal
couple entered together, the bride attired
in white organdy over white silk, and car
rying a bouquet of bride roses. Mr. Ed
ward Seifert gave the bride away. After
the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Causey re
ceived the congratulations of those who
were present, and an elegant supper was
served. A 'number of handsome presents
were received, and Mr. and Mrs. Causey
have the good wishes of a host of friends.

.'At the residence of the bride’s mother,
Mrs. W. H. Jones, last night at 8 o’clock,
Mrs. Mattie Williams was mar
ried to Mr. DeWitt McCrary. This mar
riage was of much interest on account of
of the prominence and popularity of the
contracting parties. Mrs. DeWitt Mc-
Crary is the charming daughter of the
late Mr. W. H. Jones, and a sister of
Mr. Ben L. Jones, two of the most suc
cessful business men Macon has ever had.
Mr. McCrary, who was an aiderman for
many years, is a man highly esteemed by
a wide circle of friends, and of unques
tioned popularity and business ability. The
wedding ceremony was witnessed only by
the relatives and immediate friends of the
contracting parties, and was impressively
performed by Rev. J. W. Weston. A deli
cious supper was served during the even
ing.

MACON NEWS THURSDAY EVENING, JANUARY xj xBsB.
CARLEY REID
BROUGHT BACK
He is Looking a Good Deal
Better Than When He
Left Macon.
HIS WE WITH HIM.
She Has Spent the Entire Day in
His Cell at the County
Jail.
Charles Reid, who has been serving sen
tence in the Durham coal mines, near
Cattanooga, Tenn., for the murder of L.
VV. Halstead, was brought to Macon last
night and placed in jail, from where he
will be taken next week and will appear
as a witness against Robert Dennington.
Reid says that he is treated all right at
the camp where he is stationed. His la
bors are comparatively light. He has been
made storekeeper for the camp.
His appearance indicates that he has
had good treatment. He is some heavier
than he was when he left Macon, and has
more color in his cheeks. He has allowed
a slight mustache to grow.
Mrs. Reid went to the early this
morning and has been with her husband
all day. Their meeting was a most affec
tionate one, and tears were in the eyes of
both.
Next week Mrs. Reid and Robert Den
nington will be put on trial as accessories
to the crime which Charley Reid is serv
ing sentence for. Reid will appear as a
witness in the ease, and no doubt his evi
dence will clear both of them. He has not
tried to shirk any of the blame, and has
in no way implicated either of the other
two accused.
The trial will not last long, as there is
no evidence further than that which was
introduced in the trial of Reid. It is prob
able that both Mrs. Reid and Dennington
will be tried together.

What a Georgia Editor Thinks
of the Young Labor
Leader.
Editor J. B. Nevin, writing in his paper,
the Rome Commercial, talks interestingly
of Eugene V. Debs and his work. Mr.
Nevm seems to have formed the correct
impression of the man, as all will agree
who have met him or who heard his
speech. Editor Nevin writes as follows:
1 huce taken some pains to inquire
around town as to the effect of Mr. Eugene
V. Deos’ speech at the opera house a few
nights ago. I will not say that I was sur
prisea at the general approval of lais
speecn, tor 1 cannot see now a man could
weii oojeet to it, out 1 was somewhat sur
prised at me very kina words expressed
tor nun by ail classes ot citizens, zv great
many people went to me opera house ex
pecting to hear a blood and thunder ora
tion uau seiiL.mcneS odlcmdlca du OlcfcU
discord amt discontent, instead tkey wer«
treated to a speech teeming with kmdness
and good win, and overflowing wiwi tne
doctrine ot universal brotherhood.
While there are many men wxio do not
accept his doctrines as practical, there
seems to be none who do not respect the
man and his methods. In other words,
mere are some who do not question his
theory but who question its application to
present conditions, i am glaa r went and
1 am glad so many of my fellow Romans
were on hand also. That speech could do
no harm and it must do good. A great
many questions concerning the present
conditions of the laboring classes were pre
sented in so truthful and so frank an as
pect that it must cause men to stop and
think. Whether we decide that his remedy
is the right one or not, we must confess
that something is wrong. If he did not
giVe his hearers some hard nuts to crack
1 never heard any one do it.
He has been called a “dreamer.” Prob
ably lie is, but 1 will say that if he is he
has dreamed some mighty hard, common,
everday facts. When he dreamed that a
man couid not live and support a family
on 42 cents a day, he dreamed a dream
that cannot be disputed. When he dreamed
that the world cannot go on at this kind
of business forever, he dreamed a dream
that we all know to be only too true. A
dreamer maybe, but a prophet more Mkely.
There is only one thing that is the mat
ter with men in general along this line,
and that is the fact that we will not be
frank with one another. I know one man
who would not go to hear Debs because he
said that he “did no like him.” Condemned
him before he heard him! I am glad that
so many did hear him, for he made a
splendid impression and convinced many
that his methods were those of kindness
and not of harshness.
I heard one of Rome’s most prominent
citizens say the day after that speech:
“Debs made a speech that it would do any
man good to hear.” The man who said
this confessed to me that he went .there
prejudiced against the man and expecting
to come away respecting him less. This
man is a prominent capitalist in Rome and
one who has never had much sympathy for
the laboring man. If Debs can bring such
a sentiment from the lips of one of this
kind he certainly must be doing a good
work. Disagree with him, if you want to,
call him a dreamer if you want to, but re
spect him you must—if you are not preju
diced against him. I believe him to be a
man. as I said in introducing him, “work
ing, struggling and striving for the uplift
ing of the laboring man and the peace and
comfort of every fireside in America.”
I like the mai as a. man. and I think
he will do good. I certainly do not believe
him a bird of evil. When our Lord and
Savior lived on earth he was called a pub
lic enemy and everywhere was heard the
cry. “Crucify him, crucify him.” and yet
the day has come when his persecution
and death is the grandest and most glo
rious song of all and the light shed there
has pierced the utmost corners of the
earth and toda* r its rays guides the foot
steps of millions upon millions of men.
When Patrick Henry made his famous
speech demanding liberty or death, the cry
of treason was heard upon all sides. And
yet he lives today in the memory of all,
oae of our most cherished heroes. When
Lincoln swore the Union should be pre
served some called him fool and tyrant.
When Davis swore the Confederacy should
be maintained, some called him kaave and
traitor. And yet neither one was such.
Each was an honest man, standing by his
sincere convictions and battling for the
right as he saw it. If you de not agree
to all Debs says, and you may not. let me
say that it is not a sign it is not true.
Be fair and honest with all men and
never more condemn a man without giving
him a hearing. I am certain of the opin
ion that Eugene Debs is a man more
“sinned against than sinning.”
PROMINENT CAROLINIAN DEAD.
Columbia, S. C-, January 13.—General
John Bratton, of Fairfield, died at 'Winns
boro last night of heart trouble. He was
for maay years prominent in public affairs
in this state. Entering the Confederate
service as captain, he rose to the grade of
brigadier-general. He was a'ctive in the
Hampton campaign of 1876, being a mem
ber of the state Democratic committee, and
was chairman in 1880. In that year the
legislature elected him to comptroller
general. which post he held for two years.
In 18S3 he was sent to congress, filling the
unexpirsd term of John W. Evans. In 1800
he was induced to run for governor against I
Tillman. Since then he has taken no part
in politics. He was about 66 years old.

That exceptional group of artists known
as “The Bostonians,” are announeed for an
apearance at the Academy of Music next
Thursday. The 'engagement is sure to
elicit a warm respone from the music
lovers, for, beyond question, this splendid
light opera company is the best equipped
and most famous in the world. This year
the 'Bostonians have entered on their tenth
annual tour, playing ‘to crowded houses
everywhere and creating a veritable .furore
with their latest operatic offering, “The
Serenade,” written expressly for them by
Victor Herbert and Harry B. Smith. In
fact so urgent has been the demand for
this opera that their reperto'ire has been
limited to this above named composition
•and “Robin IHood.” The management has
also been extremely fortunate in securing
a list of talented young singers, who have
made unqualified hits and- strongly aug
mented the artistic forces. Among the
most prominent singers will appear here
Henry Clay Barnabee, William PI. Mac-
Donald, Jessie Bartlet Davis, Eugene
Cowles, Alice Nielsen, George Frothing
ham, Jesephene Bartlett, William E. Philp
and many others. The production to be
made here will be on most lavish lines, in
cluding full singing and acting strength of
the organization and with the same acces
sories that have marked the original pro
ductions of the opera.

Having made arrangements with the
Michigan Stove Works, of Detroit, to han
dle their line of goods here, we are in po
sition to give extra inducements. We
( have been given carte blanche to sell. Our
instructions from this, the largest stove
factory in the world, is to sell stoves. This
we are doing to the satisfaction of the fac
tory, but not to our own satisfaction.
When we sell five we feel that we would
be better satisfied if it were ten, and from
this time on we intend to try and double
. our sales by making a still further reduc
-1 tion in price, and we guarantee to give a
) heavier, finer and better stove than can
be gotten elsewhere for the price. All our
stoves have the very latest improvements,
and the Michigan line is renowned for the
small amount of fuel required, and the
quickness with which thej- cook. We have
sold hundreds of them right here in Ma
con and are not afraid to make the above
assertions as to their merits.
If the reader of this ad has a stove in use
which is consuming too much fuel, get rid
of it and buy a Garland, Woodland, or
Home Michigan, and in one year’s time it
will save enough in the way of fuel to pay
for itself. This is inducement enough to
say nothing of the great satisfaction of
having a stove will cook a meal in
such short order.
We are also sole agents here for the
famous
Sfflto Qua

There is something remarkable about
this No. 4 list of utensils. When a per

how it can be done. Besides the regular
No. 4 list of utensils, we put in one of our *
gem assortments, containing thirty-two
articles. This assortment is gotten up
specially for us at the factory and packed
in r neat box, and one assortment goes
