"If I hM my way," said a man yes terday, "J would make a law to have Individual drinking cup* wherever a crowd drinks. Every man. woman and child should be compelled to carry a cup, and as they are made collapsible, they could be easily carried In the pocket. Take the water cooler In a passenger car. You drink out of a glass that everybody, consumptives and atl, drink out of. and you put your lips right down on the rim that other Ups, no matter how diseased, have Just presxed. Look at the school* chil dren drinking out of the same dipper with all sorts of children! Even in the communion service, all lips press the same cup. Not long ago I saw persons I knew to be consumptives alp from the same cup that was passed around the entire congregation. How are we to get rid of the great white plague u long as all drink from the same dipper, or the same glass, or the same cup? If we go to a hotel and ait down to a table to eat, and the waiter should bring us a glass that had been Just used, by some one else, we rise up and smite him; but we go to communion and we sip from thst same cup with hundreds. We go Into a school where there are hundreds of children, and wo see them all drink ing out of the same dipper" "All thst you say Is true, too true." said another man. "hut there Is an other cause of disease that Is Just .aa had. nnd It Is no wonder tha* disease spreads as It does. **■—* holding tuberculosis convent long and passing a lot of wheresses and resolutions, and all that sort of thing, but It atrlkes me that If there Is any one thing in this world to scatter diseases broadcast worse than the promiscuous drinking out of public glasses and cups and dippers, It Is the dust that la allowed to blow and fill our lungs. Just take any street In Macon (or in any city for Jhat matter) and take notice of the num ber of people who pass on It. to say nothing of the animals. Now, seventy- five per cent of men chew tobacco, and If they chey they must surely spit. They spit on the street, not necessar ily on the sidewalks, but on tha street any how. Tha wheels of the vehi cles grind that spittle or snuta Into the fine dust, and the wind blows the dust right Into your nostrils, or your mouth, and right Into your lungs. Then, outside of the tobacco chewers. look at the diseased men and women who spit on the street. We spend lots of money sending delegates to these boards of health and health con ventions and congresses and In other ways to talk and resolute; wo spend thousand of dollars for doctors' bills and for medicine, nnd I believe If we could gather all this up and heap It In n pile we would have enough to pave every street In Macon. We would then reduce the dust area to a minimum, and If It didn't savo our lives It would surely aave the lives of many of those to come after us. And if your law Is passed and enforced to prevent tho Indiscriminate drinking out of common drinking vessels, we would he the healthiest race of people on tho earth. Just think about that, when you have time." MAY PROVE FATAL When Will Macon People Learn the Importance of It?

Down on Second street a number of Telegraph subscrib ers were made mad when they went out In the early morning to get their paper to llnd that It was not there. At first there was a possibility that the carrier was late. Then aa time wore on there was a possibility that the carrier had thrown tha paper In such a way as to !oa* It among the roe# bushes sad the shrubbery. A diligent search failed to reveal its hid ing place, and then came back the thought that the carrier was late. But this was dispelled by the sight of the man serosa the street reading his pa per with evident satisfaction. It la strange how much one misses the visits of the paper. The coek may fall to put In appearance to cook breakfast, and If she does the good wife will get up and manage to scuf fle around and get up something to eat. ami the Joke goes merrily-about the wife having to cook breakfast; but If the paper falls to tum up. there are but two things to do—to buy one from the newsboys or go down town and get one from tha office, but either of these means delay. In* some states the punishment for horse stealing is hinging. There I* a five dollar fine for dropping a banana peeling on the sidewalk. These pun ishments are mttd compared with the stealing of a morning paper from a doorstep, especially on a Sunday morn ing. when aa a general thing one hat more time than on any other day in which to read the paper.

Tho smart set In these so cial centers were completely captivat ed by recant performance* by these merry troubadours who are now on their twelfth American tour, and It has given them the stamp of fashion. The swell specialties, whirlwind sen sational dances, Weber and Gieldonian ebony tinted choristers, comic charac ters and sweet-voiced soloists, so com pletely fascinated society that Its leaders have ordained that the cor rect thing for the theater la a Black Patti Troubadours* young peopl«’i matinee, or a Black Patti Trouba dours' evening b*<x party. This edict has been so extensively promulgated that even the high society white folks south of the Mason and Dixon lines are almost a* cordial In their greet Inga for their troubadours as those of the north. In the southland the trou badours seem to give more pleasure and create more enthusiasm among Its patrons, especially when singing south ern refrains. The troubadours will appear at the Grand today for matinee and night. “THE GREAT DIVIDE.** "The Great Divide," which will be •een in this city st the Grand Opera House tomorrow night. Is both a ro mantic and a problem play. It has proved one of the greatest successes the New York stare has known, hav ing taxed the seating capacity of the Princess and paly's theaters and Acad emy of Music, for nearly two seasons. Previous bookings that could not be cancelled compelled Henry-Miller and hla company to leave New York at the aenlth of their popularity^ or it would no doubt have become a perma nent attraction In the metropolis. “THE THIEF.' "Tha Thief," which Charles Froh- man will bring to the Grand on Wed nesday, November 4. Is a fine example of the 4>eat In dramatic art—a’ p ay that conveys an Idea to the apccta tor not through any bald treatmen: of a set thesis, but through the emo tions. In ingenuity of plot, cumula tive Interest of development and log! cal denouement, It ranks with the half dogen or se masterplces of the mod ern theater. Its author, Henri Bern stein, haa lu this his most sensational yet finished production, displayed power of observation, a freshness and directness of expression, a knowledge of humanity and a skilfulness in reach ing and arousing the emotions that fully Justify the distinction that his play has earned for him as the fo.v- most dramatic composer of the pres ent day. “The Thief is unique In many way*, hut In none more so than in tne breadth of Its appeal. Ifhas been translated from the French into English. Russian, German, Swedlah and Spanish and in all these different tongues has been a source of absorb Ing Interest to all classes. The story of "The Thief 1s as follows: The Voyslns. husband and wife, are visiting M. and Madame La garde* at their country home. The Lagardes have a son, Fernand, who is smitten with Madame Voysln. and writes her the most-.ardent love letters. Madame Voyaln. who is young and charming, and who loves her husband with an unswerving devotion, treats the young man's amatory attitude tightly, as a sort of romantlo flutter that will soon pass away. Sho is good natured and humored towards him, but hla atten tions have made no Impression upon her other than they are the outbrenk of * silly sentimentality on his part. Ho writes her love letters which he R laces under the pillow of the bed in or boudoir and leaves them around In other places where he knows she will And them. 1 This letter writing leads him Into serious difficulty, upon which he has not at all reckoned. For Madame Lagardes has had some money ntoleh from her bureau drawer, and aa a detective named Zambault, who la in the house masquerading as friend of M. Lagardes, hasHmam Fernand quietly slipping up the stairs to the bed room and has also seen him take something from the drawer In question, he openly accuses him of being the thlef.'s It Is known that Fernand haa had an affair with pretty Actress to whom he has made presents, and It looks as If he has stolen the money to meet the financial requirements In this Hason. The La- gardes are astonished at the revela tion. They refuse to believe the de- teotlve. He unfolds bit by bit. how ever, his evidence and the father Is at last convinced. He sends for his son. Fernand has gone into the grounds to recover the letters hr wrote Madame Voyaln. she having told him where he would And them, unopened and unread. Madame Voysln volun teers to go after Fernand, when the father demands his presence. She return* in a moment with him. To the amasement of everybody hut the detectlT*. Fernand confesses his guilt. Hla father, furloua at the young man's disgrace, decides to send him away for a period to a distant country, where he can earn and repay this stolen money. Of course, Fernand le not the thief. The dlseprery of the real cul prit and the boy's exculpation comes Inter on. Meanwhile the preparations for Fernand's departure proceed. Madame Voysln'a hlce kindly talk. In which »he told him how futile hla pas sion for her was. as she loved her husband too dearly to care for any body else, hks not had the effect of quenching or In any way subduing hla lov# for her. The relations between husband and wife become painfully •trained, and continue to until the moment set for Pernand'a departure. Here disclosures are made that put an astonishing but satisfactory com plexion upon all tho circumstances, and the dramatist Is permitted to carry hi* story to a happy conclusion. The cast of 'Th» Thler* Include* such fa vorite players aa Charles Dalton. Her bert Kelcey and Effte Shannon. These will be seen In the three great prin cipal role* and will be assisted by HIS HONOR.
