COMEDY AND NOT
OPERA TO COME
As an Attraction for the Sum
mer in Several of the
Foreign Cities.
MILK WHITE FLAG TONIGHT,
And Other Attractions to Follow
Next Week- What Happened
to Jones Last Night.
A novelty In summer amusements will '
be ottered in several towns tn Georgia this I
year in a season of comedies and drama ,
played by a stock company especially or
ganize! for the purpose, by Mr. Edwin !
Tbaohouaer of Atlanta.
Negotiations have been tn progress for I
sometime, and have just bw-n closed, i
Under the terms of the contract, the sea
son will begin some time In May and will j
continue several weeks.
A company of high-class actors will be
engaged, in fact, some of them have al
ready been engaged, and late successes
In cone dies and dramas will be carefully
and adequately presented at popular
prices. Mr. Thanhouser is now with one
of Erohman's "Under the Red Robe”
companies. The tour of that organization
will close early in May and Mr. Than
houcsr will at once set about rehearsals
for the summer season.
While at the details of the season
have not yet been arranged, It is prob
able that two plays will be given each
week. Each play will probably be given
at thr<e performances, two nights and one
matinee, aletrnating In the cities of At
lanta, Savannah. Macon. Columbus and
Augusta.
“What H append to Jones" is a good
farce comedy. One of the best in fact that
Macon th< dtre-goers have ever seen. Il
consists of rediculous situations. ludri
crous entanglements and uproriously funny
climaxes. There Is nothing wonderful
about the piece. It is a well prepared
farce—lt can hardly be called a comedy,
and It Is handled by competent people
who realize that the success of such pieces
depends upon action and plenty of it. In
other hands "What Happened to Jones”
might be flat, stale ami unprofitable, but
«s presented by the company having it in
charge last night there is not a serious
moment in It.
The success of Hoyt’s "A Milk White
Flag” which appears tonight at the
Academy has been called phenomenal, but
that is hardly the word, for it certainly
cannot .be a phenomenon for play goers
to flock to see an entertainment: it is
quite a natural thing, and not at al! out
-of the usual course of events. The piece
is in every way calculated to suit the
popular taste, end that is why people are
packing the theatres a! evt ry perform
ance. Hoyt knows bow to draw money to
the box office better than any other
American playwright. He finds out what
the fb-kle wants, what they will pay for,
then h, supplies the want.

The scenery in “A Milk White Flag”
is said to be the most elaborate ever used
in a traveling company. It is all of a
special design, and arranged with every
■possible detail to complete the stage pic
tures. It is an exact reproduction as used
ait Hoyt’s Theatre, New York, during the
great return of the piece in that city.
The first act represents the private quar
ters of the officers of the Ransom Guards.
The second act. the reception room at the
house of Piggott Luce. The third act. the
Crand Ball at the Armory.
The special musical numbers in Hoyt’s
• A Milk White Flag”—of which there are
« gr< at many - are the work of Richard
Stahl. Hoyt’s general musical director,
and the author of the operas, "Said
Pasha,” "The Lion Turner.” “The Sea
King," etc.
THE OLD HOMESTEAD.
For many seasons the ever popular "Old
Homestead” the strongest and best play
of Its kind, has been coming to Macon
Increasing in popularity every ,season. The
year Mr. Denham Thompson, in who is
as popular in the North. East and West
as Mr. Joseph Jefferson, and who created
the part is to be in the leading role, and
■Mr. Thompson’s reputation is sufficient to
crowd the Academy next Thursday night.
"Do You Know of a Contented Woman”
on Friday night. February 11. this popu
lar Hoyt success comes to the Academy
and will add to the Hoyt successes of the
year. Don’t miss seeing it.
GRIEVED OVER DAUGHTER.
Mrs. Maflola-Maaon Wants Her Daughter
Detained in New York.
Savannah. Feb. 3. —Mrs. Manola-Mason
is deeply exercised over the departure of
her daughter for New York with Manager
Askin of the disbanded Manola-Mason
Company and his wife.
She says the ex-manager told her daugh
ter all sorts cf stories about her wonderful
ability and held out inducements to her
that he could no: fulfill. She has tele
graphed to New York to have-her daughter
detained on her arirval until Mrs. Mason
is able to join her.
The fact that Mrs. Mason’s daughter is
said to be engaged to a nephew of Speaker
Reed and that they are expected to be
married shortly, adds interest to the case.
Mrs. Mason is recovering from her re
cent illness and expects to leave for the
North today.

GOOD PROSPECTS.
Real Estate eDalers Say That Business for
’9B Has a Promising Outlook.
The real estate dealers of the city report
that the outlook for 1898 is moat encour
aging. and that already business is be
ginning to pick up. in the real estate
market none of the dealers expect to do
very much -in January and Februa
ry. but so far there has been considerable
activity in the market.
One dealer said to a News reporter yee
terday afternoon that he had done twice
the amount of business this January that
he had last January, and the prospects
now were that his business for 1898 would
trible that of 1897.
Consumption Positively Cored.
Mr. R B. Greece, merchant, of Chil
howie. Va.. certifies that he had consump
tion, was given up to die, sought all medi
cal treatment that money could procure,
tried all cough remedies he could bear of,
but got no relief; spent many nights sit
ting up In a chair; was induced to try Dr.
King’s Nt-w Discovery, and was cured by
the use of two bottles. For the past three
years has been attending to business, and
says Dr. King's New Discovery is the
grandest remedy ever made, a sit has done
so much for him and also for others in his :
community. Dr. King's New Discovery is j
guaranteed for coughs, colds and consump- |

IN MAY ATHENS COMES
To Play the Annual Game of Baseball
With Mercer University at Macon.
The annual game of baseball between
Mercer University and the University of
Georgia will be played in Macon some time
in May.
The prospects for the game this year are
that Mercer will come off victorious, as
the team that will be put on the diamond
is one of the strongest that the college has
ever had. The Athens team, on the other
hand, Is said to be sadly In want of mate
rial. Billy Sandford and Richardson, their
two star twirlers, are not attending the
college, and there is no probability that,
they will. So far the Athens men have not
been able to get a pitcher to suit them.
They have been trying with all their might
to get Fort McAfee to come there, but
his paren-ts will not let him go anywhere
but to Oxford. The Mercer boys made an
attempt to get him.
The Mercer team will go on the diamond
for actual practice as soon as the weather
moderates.
FREE TO MILLIONS.
A Valuable Little Book Sent Free for the
Asking.
Medical hooks are not always interesting
reading, especially to people enjoying good
health, but as a matter of fact scarcely one
person in ten is perkfectly healthy, and
even with such sooner or later sickness
must come.
It is also a well established truth that
nine-tenths of all diseases originate with a
breaking down of the digestion, a weak
stomach weakens and impoverishes the
system, making it easy for disease to gain
a foothold.
Nobody need fear consumptioin, kidney
disease, liver trouble or a weak heart and
nervous system as long as the digestion is
good and the stomach able to assimilate
plenty of wholesome food.
Stomach weakness shows itself in a
score of ways and this little book de
scribes the symptoms and causes and
points the way to a cure so simple that
anyone can understand and apply.
Thousands have some form of stomach
trouble and do not know it. They ascribe
the headaches, the languor, nervousness,
insomnia, palpitation, constipation and
similar symptoms to some other cause
than the real one. Get your digestion on
the right track and the heart trouble, lung
trouble. liver disease or nervous debility
will rapidly disappear.
The little book treats entirely on the
cause and removal of indigestion and its
accompanying annoyances.
It describes the symptoms of Acid Dys
pepsia. Nervous Dyspepsia. Slow Dyspep
sia. Amylaceous Dyspepsia, Catarrh of the
stomach and all affections of the digestive
organs in plain language easily understood
and the causes removed.
It gives valuable suggestions as to diet,
and contains a table giving length of time
required to digest various articles of food,
something every person with weak diges
tion should know.
No price is asked, but simply send your
name and address plainly written on pos
tal card to the F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall.
Mich., requesting a little book on Stomach
Diseases and it will be sent promptly by
return mail.

The funeral of Miss Jennie Butner, who
died yesterday morning at the Park Hotel,

Miss Butner was one of the most ener
getic workers in the Christian chqroh of
‘Macon, and she will be ■missed from this
work. When she was first taken with
pneumonia no one thought that it was se
rious, end when the end came the shock
was a terrible one to the relatives.
FOR AN AUDITORIUM.
The Epworth League Have New Plans on
Foot For Building One.
The petition of the Epworth Leaguers,
which was made to council sometime ago
for permission to build an auditorium in
the park place in the middle of Poplar
street between Second and Third, was not
looked upon favorably by that body, and
now the Leaguers are arranging plans for
a building somewhere else.
They see now that it will be absolutely
necessary to build somewhere, and they
are determined to get a place. Their plans
new are being kept a secret, but they say
that they think they will be successful this
time with them.

GET READY.
L. A. W. Men Preparing for the Assembly
Next Week.
The office of the Missouri Division of
the L. ,8 W. is one of the busiest in the
city these days, says the St. Louis Chron
icle. The arrangements for the General
Assembly at the Southern next week are
being rapidly completed. Secretary Louis
Rosen made a trip to Chicago Saturday
night, returning Monday morning, on L.
A. W. business.
"The impression is rapidly being
strengthened among the L. A. W. mem
bers that the office of chairman of the
National Racing Board should be more in
dependent by making it elective,” said
Secretary Rosen to a Chronicle represen
tative Monday morning. “At the present
time the office is one of the few gifts
within the appointive powers of the presi
dent es the League. It Is a position con
sidered of as much importance as the
presidency itself, owing to the fact, that
the chairman is practically at the head of
all the L. A. W. bicycle racing in the
United States. His decisions are final and
be has control of the racing men. We
are in favor of such a movement and I
think many other divisions are. Up to
about two years ago It was not a paying
office, but later at one of the conventions
It was decided to give the chairman all
the money left over in the racing board
after the expenses were paid. The surplus
amounted to nearly $5,000 this year. From
the outlook of the coming racing season
the chairman will get nearly SIO,OOO this
year.”
It is quite certain that in the event of
Isaac B. Potter’s re-election as president
of the L. A. W., Albert Mott will be re
appointed chairman of the Racing Board.
Political influence in the L. A. W. is be
ginning to amount to no little thing. It
is claimed that this caused Chairman Mott
to Impose the slight punishment on the
promoters of the sixty-day race short
track scandal in New York recently. If
one of the circuit chasers happens to
slightly disobey one of the rules he gets
suspended for a year, while the promoters
are allowed to get off with a slight fine.
NATURE'S DEMANDS.
From want of use muscles soon become
diseased. This is shown first by their los
ing the power of full}’ contracting and be
coming soft and flabby and surrounded
and permeated with fat —'the last thing the
blood makes and the first thing it g£ts rid
of.
Used muscles contract strongly and
burn 'up the surplus fat in and around
them.
The only function of muscles is to con
tract or shorten. This power is lost if
they are not used. Notice, for instance,
the overlarge abdomen or the round shoul
der stoop of persons who do not use the
abdomen and nature’s shoulder braces
enough.
Nautre demands that the body be used
or she will deform it. If one uses the
muscles too much it will result in malfor
mation of the body. All parts must be
given proportional use.
MARY ANDERSON’S 'BABY.
In the life story of Mary 'Anderson,
(Mme. de Navarrro) in the February
number of Young Women, the former ac
tress dilates to the writer on the “hollow
ness cf stage life” and the “inexpressible
relief and happiness of the calm and the
peace of the simple, quiet life” she Is
now leading.
Mme. de Navarro is quoted as adding:
“Never again will there be a thought of
stage life. Life is something greater and
beter than stage excitement and admira
tion, as, for nistance, that boy up stairs.
“One of my constant delights Is music
and singing, especially oratorio, of which
I hope to do a great deal. Stage life? No;
never, never again!”

it could not be fixed except with a new
it has not leaked any. He has painted roofs
for J. W. Hopson, John Tillman, Clayton
Groover and others. He Joes the best work
I have ever seen done on tin roofs. He is
an honest and upright man, who would nol
deceive you for your money.

Having had Mr. Harvey English to paint
several roofs with his incomparable prep
aration for stopping leaks, it affords me
pleasure to bear testimony to his honest
workmanship and to the fact that “Eng
lish Paint Stops the Leaks; Yes, It Do.”

Mr. Harvey English has stopped a very
bad leaking roof for us with his English
Paint. I recommend his paint to any one
who is troubled with leaky roofs.
F. White, Supt.
Georgia Cotton Oil Co., Albany Mill.
Mr. English has done some work for us
that required the best of paints and skill
as a workman. Without soldering he has
made a very leaky roof dry and tight. It
gives us pleasure to recommend him.

The corrugated iron roof of our shop
leaked so badly that in times of a heavy
rain, we have been compelled to shut
down all work and wait until the rain was
over. Mr. English painted the roof with
his English Roof Paint, stopped the leaks,
and now the work goes on, rain or no rain.
His paint is a first-class article. We take
pleasure in recommending English and his
paint. Beverly Bros. & Hargrave,
