SHORE ACRES
FAILED TO DRAW
Macon Put a Slight Upon One
of the Finest Attractions
Ever Brought Here.
MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE
Greeted by a Handful of People at
the Academy—lndifference that
Must Hurt the House.
For three hours a bandful of people were
entertained at the Academy of Music last
night as no audince has been entertained
in the bouse this season.
The occasion was the presentation of
James A. Herne’s “Shore Acres,” in which
Herne himself presented the leading char
acter of Nathaniel Berry.
The pur; st and the most perfect per
formance of the sea-son will leave a most
pleasant impression on the few theatre
goers who had the good taste and the good
sense to take advantage of an opportunity
seldom offered to a provincial audience.
The play is magnificently staged, and
notwithstanding the disgracefully small
audience, and the long rows of empty
benches that greeted Mr. Herne and his
splendid company last night, not a de
tail was omitted nor an effect blurred by
carpless work.
From first to last the faithful few, who
know a good thing when it gets here, saw
the whole play given by the same com
pany with the same scenery, the same ef
fects and the same properties that has
aroused the enthusiasm of the largest
metropolitan audiences that have ever
greeted a purely pastoral play in this coun
try.
It would be ridiculous, of course, to en
ter into a criticism of the play. The bet
ter part would be to criticise the intelli
gence and appreciation of the people of
Macon who allowed such an atraction to
pass unnoticed.
Mr. Herne must have carried away with
him a poor impression of Macon, and it is
dollars to doughnuts that he will not come
here again.
If there were more such plays as “Shore
Acrts.” and moiq such honest and consci
entious actors as James A. Herne, the
• niious actors as James A. Herne, the
I’tagc would not have fallen into its pres
ent unfortunate condition of disrepute, nor
would the public taste have become de
moralized and immorality Jje made the
chief feature of the most popular perform
ances.'
“Shore Acres” is a pretty story with a
moral. It would do to tell around the
family fireside, and sound well given in
the plainest wording.
Hut “Shore Acres” as presented by the
company supporting Mr. Herne is a play
that arouses the best and purest senti
ment, it portrays types and paifits charac
ter. it gives us a true idea of farm life
among the people who live upon the
shores of Maine, and in Nathaniel Berry it
offers the simple, honest, beautiful char
acter of a man, and “every inch a king.”
It cannot but elevate the moral
tone of an audience, and James A. Herne
in his portrayal of this beautiful charac
ter does as much, if not more, to help hu
manity and forward the cause of honest
Christianity than half the preachers in
the country.
Tears followed laughter and laughter
tears last night. 'No man of big heart
there but found the touch of nature that
brought a lump to his throat, and none
dared to smile because tears glistened in
many an eye, even after the light had
died out in the old farm kitchen on Christ
mas Eve. and the dear old man had gone
to bed smiting over the happiness of oth
ers brought about by his own self-sacrifice.
It is to be hoped that no such slight
will ever again be put upon an attraction in
Macon as that which the Macon people put
upon Janu s A. Herne in “Shore Acres.” A
repetition of such an audience to such a
performance should close the house to any
thing but cheap vaudeville and lavish ex
hibitions of lower limbs. »
STI ART ROBSON TOMORROW.
Tomorrow night Mr. Stuart Robson will
be at the Academy, and Macon theatre
goers will enjoy a delightful treat in his
presentation, with his admirable company,
of “The Jucklins.” a comedy-drama in
tour acts by Augustus Thomas, dramatized
from Opie Read’s novel. The story is of
rugged pastoral simplicity. It is Ameri
can to the core, without a foreigner in it,
without a city society woman in it, with
out a wicked woman in it, or a dude.
“The Jucklins” are a plain North Caro
lina people in a.country town, and whilst
the play is modelled after that of “The
Old Homestead,” and of “Shore Acres,” in
bright sayings it surpasses them both. The
performance will be in every respect one
of the most delightful of the season. and
Mr. Robson's reputation is such that
theatre-goers can be assured that nothing
better will be seen in Macon in many’a
day.
“The Girl I Left Behind Me,” which can
be seen at the Academy Tuesday night
and matinee, seems to have the power of'
delighting all classes of society. It ran
for months at the fashionable Empire The
atre after its initial production, and then
during the winter was revived at ithe
Academy of Music, the largest theatre in
New York, where thousands of people were
thrilled with the great stockade scene in
the third act. Perhaps the judicious ming
ling of judicious incident, the flirting and
fun that are sure to happen wnen soldiers
and pretty girls are thrown together, and
the exciting war scenes explain this suc
cess with different classes. But even with
out its pretty girls and the brilliant ball
at Camp Kennion. there is enough Are and
stir tn the tremendous stockade scene to
fill any audience with enthusiasm, no mat
ter whether it is a purely fashionable one
or not.

Leitef Getting Ready for Another Advance
in Wheat.
Chicago, Feb. 25.—Wheat is slated for
another advance, and the upturn will be a
repetition of what the public has seen in
the past week of ten days. George French,
Leiter’s lieutenant, admits that the wires
are laid for another boost. More of the
clique wheat is to be moved as soon as
possible. Leiter’s May line is larger than
it was a week or ten days ago, and the
trades that have been made in the pit were
generally the selling of one “short” to an
other. Traders are expecting Leiter to
manipulate July.
Something to Know.
It may be worth something to know that
the very nest medicine for restoring the
tired-out nervous system to a healthy
vigor is Electric Bitters. The medicine is
purely vegetable, acts by giving tone to
the nerve centers in the stomach, ■ gently
stimulates the Liver and Kidneys, and aids
these organs in throwing off the impurities
in the blood. Electric Bitters improves
the appetite, aids digestion, and is pro
nounced by those who have tried it as the
very* best blood purifier and nerve tonic.
Try it. Sold for 50c. or SI.OO per bottle at

VICTORIA-GLADSTONE.
Prophecy of a Gypsy to Her Majesty the
Queen.
London, Feb. 25. —Queen Victoria is
anxious about Mr.-Gladstone, and during
his visit in Italy had telegraphic reports of
his condition sent to her twice daily. Her
venerable majesty—suc-h is the story—has
some idea that Mr. Gladstone’s death will
ibe 'but a brief forerunner of her own, be
cause of a prediction once made to 'her by
a fortune teller.
Many years ago the queen and the late
Prince Albert were out walking together a
mile or two distant from the Highland pal
ace. They were quite unattended and were
passed on the road by a gypsy caravan.
Acting on a sudden impulse, Prince Albert
hailed the gypsies apd intimated that he
and wife would like to have their fortunes
told. A tall, gaunt looking mother of the
tribe approached them, and, it is supposed
with no idea of their exalted rank. The
hand of the prince was first offered,
but with a hurried glance the gypsy drop
ped it and then for a few moments stared
into the face of the queen’s husband. “I
can tell you of no fortune,” she at last
muttered.
“You will live with the sun, but the
dark will soon deepen.” The queen and
the prince laughed, and then her majes
ty’s palm was extended. The gypsy woman
locked and then fell on her knees. “I am
in .the presence of one who is great in this
world,” she Piunnured, “and so I give you
homage, though I know not wh4tn you may
be; your days may be long, but sorrow
will not spare you, and when your end
comes there will be a falling stone.”
No explanation was vouchsafed by the
gypsy, and as the rest of the caravan’s
inhabitants were beginning to gather
around them a liberal dole was bestowed
and the queen and prince resumed their
walk. Probably the gypsy's words were
forgotten until recalled by the death of
the prince consort. The allusion to “a fall
ing stone” remained a problem, but now
it might be solved as having reference to a
falling (Glad)stone.
DANGER IN SODA.
Serious Results Sometimes Follow its Exces
sive Use.
Common soda is all right in its place
and indispensable in the kitchen and for
cooking and washing purposes, but it was
never intended for a medicine and people
who use it as such will some day regret it.
We refer to the common use of soda to
relieve heartburn or sour stomach, a habit
which thousands of people practice almost
daily and one which is frought With dan
ger; moreover the soda only gives tem
porary relief and in the end the stomach
trouble only gets worse and worse.
The soda acts as a mechanical irritant
to the walls of the stomach and bowels
and eases are on record where it accu
mulated in the intestines, causing death
by inflamation or peritonitis.
Dr. Harlardson recommends as the saf
est and sure cure, for sour stomach (acid
dyspepsia) an excellent preparation sold
by druggists under the name o-f Stuart's
dyspepsia tablets. These tablets are large
20 grain lozenges, very pleasant to taste
and contain the natural acids, peptones
and digestive elements essential to good
digestion, and when taken after meals
they digest the food perfectly and prompt
ly before it has time to foment, sour and
poison the blood and nervous system.
Dr. Wuerth states that he invariably
uses Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets in ail
cases of stomach derangements and Ends
them a certain cure not only for sour
stomach but by promptly digesting the
food they create a healthy appetite, in
crease flesh and strengthen the action of
the heart and liver. They are not a cath
artic, but intended only for stomach dis
eases and weakness and will be found reli
able in any stomach trouble except cancer
of the stomach .AU druggists sell Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets at 50c per package.

stomach weakness and their cure mailed

GOLD FIELDS OF AFRICA.
John H. Hammond Speaks of Their Richness
and Annual Output.
New York. Feb. 25. —John Hays Ham
mond. speaking of the Transvaal in the
Engineering Magazine, said:
“In 1892 the main trunk line from Cape
Town was pushed forward from its then
northern terminus to Johannesberg. The
distance from Cape Town to Johannes
berg by rail is 1013 miles. In 1894 the road
was compk-tc d from Delagoa Bay, a port
in Portuguese territory on the southeast
coast of Africa, to Johannesberg—a dis
tance of 377 miles.
“The third road reached Johhannesberg
a year later, from Durban, a port in the
British colony of Natal, distant 483 miles.
“From 23.000 ounces of gold in 18S7, the
output has risen to 3.000,000 ounces in 1897,
giving the Transvaal the second place in
the world’s production. There Is no doubt
that the present ourput of the country will
rapidly increase, and probably within a
few years, notwithstanding the increased
output of other countries, the Transvaal
“The town of Johannesberg may be
taken as a good index of the wonderful ex
pansion of the gold mining industry of the
district. From a few huts in 1886 it has
developed into a town unexecelled, if in
deed equalled, in the imposing character
of its buildings, by any of the enterprising
mining towns in Western America. In
dee, Johannesberg has but little of the as
pect of an American mining camj. In its
general appearance it reminds an Ameri
can more of Spokane or Salt Lake City.”

Foolish Remarks Made by Those Who Shake
Hands.at the White House.
Washington, D. C„ Feb. 25.—There will
always’ be something new to the observ
ant eye anent a president’s reception.
There is perhaps no time or place in
which there is such urgent need of quick
ness of wit and kindly tact as at the pub
lic receptions given by the president of Hie
United Slates and bis wife.
When a queen receives her subjects the
etiquette is fixed and inexorable. No one
speaks unless addressed by royalty..
But Americans of all classes crowd into
the Blueroom, many with a question or a
joke which they have prepared to fire at
their unprepared ruler, and they judge by
the fitness of his reply whether he is com
petent to hold his office or not.
Many of them, too, through sheer pm
bai 1 assment, make foolish remarks, the
memory of which probably causes them
misery afterward.
One frightened lady assured Mrs. Cleve
land, “It is a mutual pleasure to mees
you,” correcting her mistake by calling
out as she went down the line, “I meant to
say the pleasure is all on your side.”

The corrugated iron roof of cur saop »
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,
