Jim, the Penman.—Jim, the Penman,
will be presented at Springer Opera House
Thursday evening by A. M. Palmer’s pop
ular company. It is doubtful whether
there is any play on the American stage
today that is more familiar to the theatre
going people, or that lias been received
witli more pronounced favor. The strong
dramatic power of the play—its compact
ness, its clear-cut dialogue, and, above all,
its opportunities for brilliant acting—have
made it what it is today considered—a
;reat play. The company that comes to
Columbus is a strong and well-balanced
one. Clias. Riegel leads the company,
playing James Ralston, the forger. Louise
Rial plays Nina, Ralston’s wronged wife,
and the victim of his cleverest forgeries,
James L. Carhart plays Baron Hartfeld
Edward Travers plays Captain Redwood
the drawling, drowsy, clumsy detective
The other persons in the company are
Hardy Vernon, who plays Louis Percival
T. A. Washburne, Lord Drelincourt; Miss
Livingston, Mrs. Chapstone; Win. She!
don, Jack Ralston; Evelyn Hardy, Agnes
Ralston; Grace Graves, Lady Duuscoinbe.
GEN. ALEXANDER WOULD LIKE TO SEE,
BUT HAS’NT FAITH.
Gen. E. P. Alexander, President of the
Central Railroad, returned to Savannah
from New York on Monday. Daring his
absence he has kept posted as to the direct
trade movement through the newspapers,
and in an interview with a Times reporter
says:
“The great difficulty lies in the inability
to get return cargoes. The lines of
steamers running from New York, four
and five sometimes leaving in a day, de
pend upon the passenger traffic mainly for
their support, and accept freight at little
or nothing. Oftentimes they accept it on
their return trips for purely ballasting
purposes, the revenue from that source
merely meeting the expense entailed in
handling it. That, I consider, is the
great drawback to the success of the pres
ent movement.
“Then,” he continued, “the steamships
will have to depend entirely on Southern
products for the outward bound freight.
I do not think Western products can be
diverted to a Southern port. New York
keeps abreast with the demand and trade
cannot be diverted from it or Philadelphia
or Baltimore to Savannah. I was at one
time very hopeful that grain might be
brought from the West and shipped from
a Southern port to Europe, and so I helped
to put up the big elevator at Port Royal,
which stands today, serving no purpose
and representing an expenditure of thou
sands of dollars. As far as I can see
Western products cannot be relied upon in
tiie slightest to aid in making the move
ment a success.
“As for the immigration feature, there,
too, I can see no probability of success.
Several efforts have been made in the past
to make a Southern city an entry port for
immigrants, but in every instance they
have signally failed. The same conditions
exist today as existed then. Immigrants
from Europe want to settle together on
great tracts of land. They are induced to
come to America by the extensive and
very expensive advertising of large syndi
cates, owning hundreds of thou
sands of acres in great blocks,
who settle them in this country
where they really form what might be
termed a colony. That is what has been
done, and still is being done in Texas.
Georgia, South Carolina or Alabama, and
other States, do not offer the same condi
tions. There are no available large tracts
of fine agricultural lands that can be util
ized in this way in Georgia, no blocks
of 50,000 or 100,000 acres of rich, fertile
soil that a syndicate can take up and
develop by immigration and through
the expenditure of thousands of dollars
abroad. It takes money, and abundance
of it, to induce immigration to any par
ticular locality. Immigrants will not
come aimlessly into the South. There
would have to be a well defined, carefully
managed movement to get them here, even
under the most favorable of circumstances.
I only wish we could get thousands of
them to flock into Georgia and build up
her waste places, but I have no hope of it
being done on a wholesale scale just
now.”

Charles A. Gardner Tonight.—
I Charles A. Gardner will appear at Springer
Opera House tonight in “Fatherland.’
This play has been seen by Columbus
theater-goers and is greatly admired here,
| It was written by Sidney R. Ellis, assisted
| by Mr. Gardner himself. The action
laid in the heart of the romantic Austrian
Tyrol, and the scenes and business repre-
I sent the life and local- manners of the
Tyroiese, who are sprightly people, fond
of music and dancing, and excel in rifle
shooting and athletic amusements. Gard
ner is a picturesque actor according to all
accounts, and sings a good song, one of
which a love-lyric, called “The Lilac,”
{ praiseful mention is made. Consistency,
originality and wit are claimed for “Fa
therland,” and the special features, such
| as the “Festag,” “Spinstube” and Saen-
gerfest scenes, are cited as quite absorbing.

SPONGES!
Anno Domini, 1919.
The Louisiana State Lottery Company is pecu
liarly an institution of Louisiana. Its interest in
its charities and the popular appreciation of tbe
company’s efforts to advance the interests of the
State, are too well known to be controverted at
this late day. The Legislature of Louisiana, be
fore adjourning on the 10th day of July, of this
year, ordered that an amendment to the constitu
tion of the S a o be submitted to the people a an
election in 1892, carrying the charter of the com
pany up to the year 1919. In the meanwhile the
present charter does not expire till the first of
January, 1895. There will not be the slightest
change in the policy or methods of the company
which, under the management of Generals Beau
regard and Early, wifi be characterised by the
same regard for equity and fair bnsiness dealing

THE PROSPECT ENCOURAGING,
An enthusiastic meeting of the Board of
Directors of the Chattahoochee Valley
Exposition Company was held yesterday,
when considerable business in connection
with the great show was transacted. The
several committees are well up in their re
spective departments, and everythin:
moving along like clock-work.
It is certain that there will be a lively
contest for the county exhibit premium
Harris, Talbot, Marion and Muscogee
are already assured, and probably Lee
county, Ala., and Glynn county and possi
bly Troup will be added. There is now
movement on foot to bring the magnificent
county exhibit, ship and all to Columbus,
and to facilitate this a special committee
of five from the directory will shortly visit
Brunswick to interview the Broad
Trade on the subject.
Contracts were yesterday closed with
Miss Peek, the noted female character,
and her retinue for several days exiiibition
and with the owner of the celebrated trot
ting dog, “Doc,” of whicli mention has al
ready been made in the Enquirer-Sun
for two days.
It has also been determined to invite all
the traveling men, or “commercial tour-
its,” and all the railroad passenger con
ductors to a conference with the directors
on Saturday night, the 4th of October, at
the Rankin House for tiie purpose of con
suiting in regard to the interests of the
great show.
The railroads have agreed to give one
cent a mile each way for two days in each
week of the exposition, and one fare for
the round trip tiie rest of the time. An
effort will also be made to secure such
schedules as will give a better opportunity
for the people on some of the lines to visit
Columbus, enjoy the entire day and return
in the evening if they desire. Space
the main building is being rapidly taken,
and there is every indication that the dis
plays by home merchants will exceed any
thing in this line seen at a Southern expo
sition.
There are numerous inquiries from all
parts of the country in regard to privi
leges, which is an evidence of the interest
that is felt in Columbus’ great show.
The advertisement for bids for the res
taurant, bar, and similar privileges will be
published in a few days, and from the in
quiries that have been made, it may be ex
pected that there will be numerous bids
filed.
Merchants’ Day will be one of the grand
est of the Exposition, and the mercantile
friends of Columbus in the entire territory
tributary to this city may count on having
a royal time.
Altogether, the Exposition is on a boom,
and Columbus is going to give a show that
will be memorable.
REGISTERED VOTERS.
OVER THIRTEEN HUNDRED WHITE
JORITY IN THE COUNTY.
The registrars for the county precincts
presented their books at the office of Ordi
nary Pou yesterday.
The following table shows the number

in the county as compiled from the books
of the registrars.

It will be seen from the above statement
that 2,472 voters have registered in the
county, of which 1,894 are white and 578
colored, which shows a white majority of
1,316 in the county. In 1888, the total
registration for the county was 2,162, of
which 1,308 were white and 854 colored
In 1888 the city districts furnished 1,093
voteis and the country districts 1,069.
This year the city furnishes 1,690 voters
and the country precincts 782, of which
321 are colored. There are 1,433 white
voters in the city and 461 in the country,
Two years ago there were 81G white voters
in the city and 492 in the country. This
gives an increase of 617 white voters in
the city and a decrease of 31 white voters
in the country districts.

TO KET<jH A JDOODLE
You’ve gotter be up to snuff. It takes cunnin
instid of force. It’s the same trouble with buy
ing goods to sell again. It’s all in the way you
do it. There’s many a man worth two mil lions to
my one that can’t give you the bargains of 3,000
volts such as I hand out to you on a waiter while
you wait every day in the year. I ain’t much on
force, but when it comes to strategem and schem
ing anil lying—in wait for a golden hoppertuuity
to stick its head out of its hole, I’m a whole
team with a yaller dog under the wagon. 1 found
that out when I was caut by a coachwhip snake
one day. When just as he was about to tie me
and fall to and everlastingly larrup the fillin’
outer my negligee briches 1 slipped a imitation
rubber king snake outer my pocket and run tbe
dad shamed willun plum outer bis native state—
i. e., the state of self-confidence in which he had
been living—into a state of terror, and he had to
pay the penalty of his nerve by crawling around
over the country till he wore all the skin iff his
stomach hunting a “snake doctor” to
get a dose of anty piereen to
quiet his nervous apprehension. But it was only
to illustrate my position that I lugged the family
affairs of an erring brother—I mean of course
that it is only to show you how I stand in the
bargain world that I yanked the sacred veil of
obscurity often tbe domestic concerns of a mis
taken snake—who no doubt ere this is suffering
all the pangs of a serpentine conscience loaded
down with a double dose of remorse kept alive
and fanned into flames of fury by
a skint stomach, tbe high price of vaseline
and the scoffs and jeers of a cold-hearted and
unsympathising world. I got there in great
shape on that last paragraph, didn’t I? That's
the way 1 get there on vases. I’ve got more dif
ferent kinds of vases and liner vases and more ol
’em to boot than you can shake a stick at. 1
don’t ax the McKinly bill or any other bill any
odds as far as this season is concerned. Tbe
same cunning that I indulged in when
I got into a beroolia with the above
i caused me to buy n y vases
in January last and get ’em' in and salted away
before the Republican party drapped onto my
little game. As soon as they found out wliat I
had whirled in and done, I tell you right between
me and everybody else, they were the sliamedest
crowd you ever see. I treated ’em the same way
about all my toys. It may have been taking an
advantage that wasn’t due—1 mean an undue
advantage of the g. o. p. but I’m so snakey 1
just—ha! ha! boopee! Honestly, 1 couldn’t
help it. Oh. what a willun I
am! But as far as shaving soap is concerned
I’ve got it handy. Thais the name of it. Handy
Sliavlng Soap. But up in nice boxes with kivers
and bottoms to em. All for 10c. As proof of its
virtue, I have only to say that Ed erry uses it
altogether in shaving folks-at least he said he
would do it pretty soon. Ed is our barber and a
good one too. If all the negroes in this country
got a move on ’em like Ed and all the white folks
got a hustling hump hitched to ’em like your un
cle 10 cents Holloway wo would have a
eonntry here that you read about. Now don’t
think that Ed will take offense bekase I called
him a negro, Ed has horse sense and don’t no
more mind being called by the name of his race
than I mind being called a

Old Pocket Rook.
Old pocket book, on side walk lay,
Teasing all who came that way.
First two boys, with faces black,
Down together they go whack.
Two black skulls almost crack.
Next the preacher, with dignity,
Stoops down, quite gracefully,
Comes up again quite hastily.
Now with temper somewhat vexed,
Almost forgets about the text
Third, the dude, the purse has spied.
Wraps his pants aronnd his side.
Tip, tip, tip, to the book does glide.
Then tucks his head, shame face to hide.
Pretty maiden, she comes by,
Tries to get it on the sly.
Flings it down, with heavy sigh.
Almost ready now to cry.
This innocent pocket book caused all this
trouble (and more too) by being thrown on the
side walk in front of the place where I keep a
complete stock of the best Shoes; also, the larg
est stock of fine Confections and Toys in the city.

A GRAND OVATION.
New Goods and New Prices reign Supreme. Our first
announcement on dress goods a grand success. Hundreds
of eager buyers and lookers attest I heir appreciation of our
judgment and taste by crowding our dress counters. Deter
mined to get this stock down to low water mark, we will
offer during the present week ihe greatest values ever known
to dress goods buyers. AVe are determined to do the bu iness.
Not the entire business of Columbus, but our share of it, and
will, for a time at least, sell goods for prices much less than
their value.
In Fine Wool Dress Goods
Our line of Cashmeres, Serges and Henriettas cam ot
he surpassed. In new and lovely colorings from 30 to 41
inches wide a! 45, 60, 75 and 85c. per yard. We guarantee
price and quality against any and eveiy market here or else
where. A large and generous stcck of those goods enabiis
us to suit any ta-te.
Another shipment of those lovely Embroidered Pattern
Suits at $8.00, lor g winded concerns would hold them cheap
at $12 00. An ample stock of low priced Dress Goods at 8,
10, 12i, 15, 20 and 25c.
Plushes, Gimps and Novelty Trimmings. An elegant line, no old or antiquated
styles in the lot.
Will open this week some high class novelties in Plaid Dress Goods.
In speaking of Ginghams, we believe an intelligent trade always demands the best.
No inferior goods or off styles, such as tasty buyers would reject, find a place in our
collection at 6, S, and 10c. No better goods, no tastier patterns, no faster colors, can
be found in the Gingham World.
Tol Du Nord,
A genuine French name for an American fabric, only a high class Gingham after all,
equal in every respect to the Scotch goods, and only half the price, 124c. a yard In
Plaids and Stripes, with solids to match, makes elegant and tasty combination dresses,
colors guaranteed.
We will knock the hotton out of the Calico trade this week by offering the very
best at 5c. This will include Indigo Blue and Mourning Prints as well. Remember
this figure on Calico is for this week only. If there are any better goods than these in
the market we would like to know where they can be found.
A direct importation of Linens from the best Belfast looms, enables us to give
prices on Table Linens, Towels and Napkins not within the possibilities of competi
tion. Try our goods and prices in this department.
Notwithstanding the warm weather, Flannels and Blankets have a steady move
on them. The magnetism of the price keeps the ball in motion.
In anticipation of chilly mornings and evenings we bought an elegant line of
light weight Stockinette Jackets in Blaek and Navy. They are just the thing for early
season wear. Material, fit and workmanship guaranteed.
Polite and courteous attention assured every caller whether buying or not.
