HIS SUICIDE PROTEST
OUST GRIFT
Dr. Theodore B. Sachs.
Dr. Theodore B. Sachs’ suicide has
aroused many charitable workers and
their sponsors in Chicago, who look
on liis act as a protest against graft
in the Chicago Municipal Tubercu
losis Sanitarium, of which he was the
head. He resigned from the public
institution and went to his private
sanitarium at Naperville, where he
took poison. He said politicians had
Interfered with the work of the muni
< ip<*l sanitarium, and that he had
grown weary of fighting them.
GREINWOOO SHOWS
Ml FIRST
Special arrangement has been per
fected by which the Greenwood shows
will exhibit in Americus for one week,
commencing Monday, May Ist. This
organization is in no way similar to a
carnival. Only one performance is
given each night, but free street par
ades will be made daily by the Green
wood Challenge Band and each night
just prior to the night show a free
concert will be given on the base ball
park show grounds.
The mammoth rainproof tented pa
villion has a seating capacity of over
twenty-five hundred people and a gen
eral admission price of ten cents ad
mits all. A company of thirty musical
comedy artists are employed in each
production and a distinct change of
jiill is offered each night. A singing
chorus of unusual excellence and a
coterie of gifted comedians and danc
ers are attractive features of the
Greenwood shows.
An orchestra of nine solo-musicians
accompany each performance, giving
it the volume and general character
istics of the high-class productions
seen in city theatres. An exclusive
advertising contract with the Chero-
Cola Company makes possible a liber
ality and investiture that could not bo
embodied in any ordinary road attrac
tion depending solely upon public pat
ronage at the trival price charged by
the Greenwood shows. Owing to the
fact that several years have elapsed
since tented attractions of any merit
have visited Americus, a large attend
ance is predicted for the week during
which the Greenwood shows will be
here.
