MARIE WAINWRIGHT.
Her Appearance Here in ‘'Shall Ws For
give Her.”
Marie Wainwright will be the attraction
at the Academy of Music on next Thurs
day night appearing upon this occasion in
“Shall We Forgive Her,” an English play
that was presented first in London at the
Adelphi theatre, where “Secret Service”
was recently played, and later in all the
large cities of England, Ireland and Scot
land. where it is still being played with
great success. Manager Jacob Litt se
cured the American rights and put it on
at rhe Fourteenth street theatre, New
York. It made an emphatic hit and was
warmly commended for its simple
.straightforward story and the skill with
which it was told. Its freedom- from clap
trap and the absence of sensational effects,
which have done so much to lower the lone
of good melodrama, won for it serious con
sideration and praise from the critics. Per
haps the- most interesting part of this an
nouncement to regular playgoers will be
the engagement of Marie Wainwright to
play the leading role. Miss Wainwright
has hitherto devoted her talents to the in
terpretation of what are called the legiti
mate roles. For several years she has
been a star in the high-class comedy and
a favorite’ with the public from one end
of the country to the-other. Her ability h

unquestioned and her versatility is estab
lished wherever her name is known. That
she will lend strength to the cast of
“Shall We Forgive Her” as well as dignity
to the performance, there is not the slight
est doubt. The story of “Shall We For
give Her" tells of a woman who has made
a mistake in early life. She leaves Eng
land. home and friends to join her lover in
Australia. After living with him for two
or three years, she finds that he is al
scoundrel. He has dragged her down al
most to his level, but she regains her I
courage and deserts him, determined to I
begin life over again. Friends aid her. she I
returns to England, secures a new foot- I
hold and marries an honorable man. She ;
is living happily when a shadow from -the j
past in the shape of her former scoundrelly '
betrayer arises to confront and persecute I
her. The husband has not been made ac- ■;
quainted with his wife’s early life, and
therefore is fearfully shocked and indig
nant when he learns the story told him by
tJie woman’s enemies. A separation fol
lows the admission of its truth by her. ■
The following acts describe the efforts |
made toward the reconciliation which ■
comes, of course, in due time, and every- |
thing ends happily. The piece is said to '
contain many situations of real dramatic i
strength and there is an abundance of ex- '
cellent comedy to lighten the more somber
portions. Miss Wainwright is supported
by an able company.

BRILLIANT
SPECTACLE.
(Continued from page U
stripes of the Engineers made the men
up to a greater advantage than the
other regiments, and, taking into consid
eration that there are many Georgia boys
in the regiment It was one of the most
popular regiments of the day. The regi
ment was followed by several ambulances
and the hospital corps.
Following the Engineers came the Sec
ond Ohio in command of Colonel J. A.
Kuert. The band of this regiment was
the best in the parade and they made ex
cellent music. The men showed up well
and as the platoons passed the reviewing
stand the alignment was perfect. The
regiment wat» loudly cheered. The plat
oon formation worked well and showed
the men off to a better advantage.
After the Second Ohio came General
McKee and staff and following him was
the Seventh Immunes, the ranking colored
regiment. It also made a good showing,
but the dress in the platoons was Irreg
ular and it seemed as if the men knew
very little about drilling.
Following the Seventh Immunes came
the Tenth. The men of this regiment
showed that they knew something about
drilling, as they kept perfect dress and
handled their guns like machines.
Next came the Third North Carolina,
commanded by Colonel Young. This regi
ment is composed wholly of negroes. No
white officers are found in the ranks and
even the colonel is a negro. He handled
his men well, however, and it made a very
creditable showing.
Following the Third North Carolina
came the Sixth Virginia, the regiment that
has been under arrest for some time past.
This regiment had the largest number of
men in line and even in a column of plat
oons they could barely march -down the
street. It was decidedly the best colored
regiment and put up the best drill. They
showed that although they had been dis
orderly Ghat they could drill. The regi
ment was commanded by Lieutenant Col
onel Croxton.
After the Sixth came the Seventh cav
alry. headed by Lieutenant Colonel
Cooney. This regiment captured the
crowd. Their band was out on horseback,
and as they reached the reviewing stand
they also struck up “Dixie.” This set the
crowd wild and they were loudly cheered.
It took some time for this regiment to
pass, as fully eight hundred men were in
line. They were also marched in a col
umn of platoons and made an excellent
showing. The horses behaved well and
none attempted to break away.
As the different regiments would pass
the reviewing stand they would turn into
Third street and return to their camps.
Taking everything into consideration the
troops made an excellent showing and
every officer should be proud of his com
mand. General Wilson expressed himself
as beirg well pleased with Rhe review and
so did General Bates. Several changes
will be made in the arrangement for the
Monday parade and everything will be
perfected. It was a noticeable fact this
morning that the negro officers handled
their companies well and seemed to know
exactly what to do. There was no mis
takes made in the commands and every
thing was perfect.
It is estimated that the review was wit
nessed by ten thousand people, and for a
time business was at a standstill. IL took
exactly an hour for the men to pass in re
view, and it is thought that they can go
much quicker next Monday, as all of the
officers will be familiar with the route and
ceremony. The review Monday will pro
bably be held at the same time as the one
today and with the exception of minor
companies short and the Third Engineers
same.
I* The review has been the subject of much
comment on the streets today and fill of
the citizens are loud in their praise 07
the men. The next review will he witnessed
be a larger crowd and much more enthu
siasm will no doubt prevail.
Parade Notes.
The appearance of over four thousand
negro soldiers, as they were lined up on
Mulberry street, created considerable com
ment. Never before has Macon witnessed
such a congregation of negroes.
The Second Ohio regiment was three
companies short and the Third Enginerrs
one, owing to the provost guard detail.
This accounts for those regiments appear
ing so small.
No bettei’ weather for today’s review
could have been desired. The temperature
was at that pleasant medium that did not
permit the soldiers to become too warm
while marching nor too cool while stand
ing still.
All the bands did themselves proud, es
pecially those of the Second Ohio and
the Third Engineers and Seventh cavalry
was quite a novelty.
The Third North Carolina is the only
regiment here that has not a white man
in it. All the officers and men are ne
groes.
Second story windows and balconies
along the line of march were at a pre
mium.
It was a pretty sight to see General Wil
son staff doff their hats every time the
national colors passed them.

Impersonal Writing;.
The newspaper is complete in itself.
Its issue of today is of value only until its
issue of tomorrow appears. It follows
that the newspaper man is valuable only
for what he can do today for tomorrow’s
paper. With every sunrise there is a great
gulf fixed between him and his past work.
This means that by no exertion, by no
years of faithful service, can he acquire a
position for himself. He must each day
enter a race in which there is the keenest
competition known, and on the morrow
this race will begin again. Now, it is a
physical law that as a man gets along in
life he loses energy as he gains experience
and knowledge. The American newspa
per is the development in its newsgather
ing lines of the intense energy of youth, i
But there is a side of legitimate newspa- j
per publication which the impersonality
of the writers in this country has dwarf- I
ed, yet which is one of the most interest
ing to the reader, and therefore one of the
most profitable to publish. It is that of
comment and criticism on the panorama |
of life. In order to write this years of ex- ’
perience and a vast fund of knowledge of
men are needed. Even with these the
column so written is not so interesting,
and therefore will not pay as well, unless
the writer be known.—Lippincott's.
