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. r - ' /’A \ < J \ ,r /V ' \ T . ■' - <i jf ■ ' 1 | I 1 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. SIOO REWARD SIOO. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure In all Its stages, and that is catarrh. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foun dation of the disease and giving the pa tient strength by building up the consti tution and assisting nature in doing its work.

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.

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. O JE ■i.Xul’L . Tho he- ■ z? SOUTH WESTERN STOCK HOLDERS.

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. WALKED WHILE DYING. Left Her Bed and Fell Dead on the Pub lic Road. Knoxville, Tenn.. Feb. 3. —A remarkable case is reported from Skaggston, near here. Mrs. Delthia Douglass has been ill with consumption seven years.

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!” C ASTORIA For Infants and Children "he lie- jt.Mlls ' 1 ts B FAN FOOD. J.
