“FLOWERS” AND FUN
AT THE AUDITORIUM
Newnan Talent Scored Brilliant
Success in “A Musical
Bouquet.”
A company composed of New
nan ladies scored the theatrical
success of the year in this city
last Friday evening, presenting
•‘A Musical bouquet.” The per
formance drew one of the largest
audiences seen at the Auditorium
this year to witness a play; and
every person in the house was de
lighted witn every feature and
thoroughly enjoyed every moment
of the performance.
The play presented the "blossom
family” of "Hoosierville,” Indiana,
as a "dramatic troupe.” Mr. John
Quill blossom, the husband of
Mrs. blossom and the father of
seven lovely blossoms, was a gen
tleman with the characteristic ten
dencies of the age In other
words, he was determined to “get
rich quick” and with the expendi
ture of the minimum amount of
effort. Life on an Indiana farm
was too monotonous for Mr. blos
som and the returns promised too
little and were too slow about
coming in. So he journeyed to
the Klondike in search of goici.
The first act ot the play presents
the Blossom family at home, after
the departure of Pa for the Klon
dike. A letter is received from
a gentleman in New York, who
holds a mortgage on the blossom
homestead. He states that the
mortgage is due and must either
be paid or foreclosed. Casting
about for means to save their be
loved home, in desperation the
blossom family "go on the stage.”
The result of this rash resolve is
portrayed in the second act in the
presentation of "A Musical bou
quet ” The act closes with the
receipt of a telegram from Pa, an
nouncing that he has made #5,000,-
000 in the Klondike and is enroute
home. The blossom family ren
ders a farewell chorus, and the au
dience goes home happy—at least
that is what happened in Newnan
last Friday night.
Every member of the blossom
family company deserves ihat
"special mention" wiiich people
who appear before the public
in amateur theatricals arc* supposed
to desire; and, in rare instances
really deserve.
As the mother-in-law and grand
mother of the blossom family,
Mrs. Z Greene was perfect m the
character of "Mrs. Elder blossom’’
and her splendid voice charmed
j the audience in both solo and
chorus parts.
"Mrs John Quill blossom” was
strikingly portrayed by Mrs J. T
Kirby, whose understanding of the
part and delineation of the char
acter of the mother of a large fam
ily of fascinating beauties, was one
of the finest features of the play.
Miss Annie Powell, as "Pansy
blossom,” and Mrs. Sanders Gib
son, as “Rose blossom,” in their
specialty, the balcony scene in
Romeo and Juliet, won prolonged
applause.
"Violet” and “Daisy," the timid,
shrinking members of the blossom
family, were aptly portrayed by
Misses Ruth bailey and Katie
Arnall. Their duet, “We’re Poor
Little Sisters,” won an encore and
elicited much favorable comment
Mrs. Ellen Goolsby and Miss
Kate Snead, in the role of twins,
“Myrtle” and “Clover blossom,"
presented one of the features of
the performance in their song,
“I Don’t Know Where I’m Goin’,
but I’m on My Way.” “Miss
Myrtle” also scored a decided
“hit” witn her song, "My Name is
Morgan, but it Ain’t J.P.;”and
“Miss Clover,” as “De Leader of
De Company B,” convulsed the
audience with her rendition of an
“illustrated song.”
Mrs. T. M. Goodrum sustained
the part of “Lily blossom,” the
“Primy Donner,” with an exhibi
, tion of exceptional talent and her
beautiful voice was heard with rare
pleasure in chorus and solo parts.
"Juniper,” the hired man of
1 ebon hue, whose sudden transfer
from the sylvan shades of an
Indiana farm to the glow of the
footlights, in no wise disturb -d his
equanimity, "gave color to tne pet
formance" and furnished tun for
the scene while the blossoms sup
plied the dowers. This part was
well sustained by Mr. Robert
Lovejoy.
Between the acts the "Geisha
Girls” delighted the audience with
"Japanese Fan-tastics.” The
“girls” were Misses Ruth What
ley, Alma Kirby, Mabel Mitchell,
Lula Barr, Pearl Hughic, Evelyn
Martin, Katharine Gibson. Jennie
Lou Qrr, Frances Farmer, Annie
Goodwyn, Onie Brannon and
Eddie North.
During the performance excel
lent music was rendered by the
orchestra, composed of Messrs. T.
M. Thompson, Ray Crane, W. J.
Perry and Mr. Stubblevine, with
Miss Kate Lane as pianist. Mrs.
B. C. Sanders and Miss Emmie
Young Conyers acted as pianists
tor the “dramatic troupe.’’
From a financial standpoint the
“Musical Bouquet" was as great
a success, "comparatively speak
ing," as Pa’s explorations in the
Klondike. The gross receipts
amounted to about £125; and the
net proceeds were large enough to
prove very gratifying to the ladies
who devoted much time and effort
to the rehearsal and presentation
of the play.
Atlanta the Trolley Center of
the South.
Atlanta is rapidly coming to he
the Indianapolis of the South.
And when we com pure our
Twentieth Century City to the
capital of Indiana, we do not con
descend to so small a prophecy as
toil full equality in mini hers, blit
wo refer more particularly to eon
ditions now rapidly growing which
will make Atlanta the trolley cen
ter of the South.
From Indianapolis there are
trolley lines running wherever a
railroad runs, and many a trolley
line which i nns where 110 railroads
are to ho found. Indianapolis is
connected by trolley with'almost
every center in Indiana and sur
rounding states. From the Miclii
gan border and the Illinois cities
eastward to Cleveland and Colum
bus, and south ward to Cincinnati,
the trolley lines carry baggage cars,
coaches, closets and in some in
stances dining cars and sleeping
coaches.
We are not Indianapolis yet in
Atlanta, hilt we are now making
the beginning that will bring ns
before long to that desirable sl id us,
We already have in addition to
the suburban lines to College Park,
Fast Point and Decatur,a line run
ning 20 miles to Marietta. Several
months ago the Pratts incorporated
a company and secured the riglil
of way to a line which is now
building to Griffin, barnesville,
Forsyth and to Macon.
And here comes another line
that will perhaps he completed he
fore the lines to Macon, by the
Atlanta and Carolina company,
which has perfected its arrange
ments for a line running through
Fast Point, College Park, Newnan,
LaGrauge and to West Point.
This line is definite and certain.
Work will be begun in a very short
while upon it and pushed rapidly
to completion.
Another line by the same com
pany strikes down the Georgia
railroad to Stone Mountain and
Conyers, and on toward Augusta,
and before the decade is over we
shall have an Atlanta not only of
railroads but a vast wheel of trol
ley lines with the spokes radiating
in every direction and multiplying
the facilities and conveniences of
travel in this city.—Georgian.

‘Vagrant.”
come, is a vagrant, and this is true
notwithstanding such person may
have a fixed place ot abode where
he usually lodges. Especially
would such a person he a vagrant
when his loafing and loitering was
about pool rooms, barrooms, dives,
lewd houses and other places of
like character.”
This disposes of the fellow who
lives upon the basket his wife
brings home. He must cat out of
his own basket or live on chain-
gang fare.
It also disposes of the chap who
picks tip a chance job which, for
the labor of a day, gives him sus
tenance, without labor, for the
next two or three days. He has
no “regular” income and no "rea
sonably continuous employment,”
and is therefore an apt subject for
the public works
It also disposes of the “habitual"
loafer, idler and vagabond. The
habitual drunk ird is not neces
sarily drunk every day, hut has the
habit of getting dturik; and so the
“habitual" loafer has a fixed habit
ot getting tired. 'J his meets that
very numerous class ot “quitters,”
male and female, who Work a little
and get so very weary at jt that
they must needs take a good long
rest.
The II rater who "wanders and
strolls about in idleness with no
lawful purpose,” wiil now float
into a place where he will neither
stroll nor idle lor a good many
months. Those are the vagabonds
whom the old law describes as
“such as wake on the night and
sleep on the day, and haunt cus
tomable taverns and ale-houses,and
roust about; and no man knoweth
from whence they come, nor whith
er they go.” For such ill-omened
birds of passage a cage now
yawns.
The officers of the law have now
clear clues to go upon. Follow
that big basket home and see
where it lands; take a look at the
pay-roll of the contractors who
can’t get enough steady hands, and
see who are the intermittent fel
lows; run over the “Wanted—A
Servant” column and inquire who
has just quit, and what the quitter
is doing; round up, systematically,
the dives and see if the habitues
thereof, or any recent accessions
thereto, have a clean bill of health.
—Augusta Chronicle.
Our supreme court has cleared
up a great deal of legal fog by de
fining the term "vagrant" thus:
“One who wanders and strolls
about in idleness with no lawfu
purpose or object whatever, an
habitual loafer, idler and vagabond
who is able to work, has no prop

employment and no regular in-
