On The clever muelcaL glrllcal comedy, “The Little Duchess," hoe always been a favorite here, and attracted Atlanta theatergoer* on-Its three former pre sentations fiere—first by Anna Held and twice since with the same elaborate production by Countess Olga von Hatz- feldt. This organization of fifty peo ple returns for a week’s engagement at the Bijou theater, opening Monday night, with Countess Olga In the title role, surrounded by the same clever cast seen on Its last two performances here. Likewise, the same svelte "Sadie girls." natty fencing girls and other familiar features In the feminine con tingent will bo present Most prominent In the cast are the five clever comedians, Robert Lett as the bathing master; Irving Brooks, ns the Dutch fencing teacher; Harry Car ter, os the smooth Abel Skinner; Geo. F. Moore, as the tobasco-tempcred Por tuguese, and Madeline Cook, as the lovelorn Juliette, all of whom are fa vorably remembered since their former successes In the same roles, as to need little Introduction. They will be seen with many new laughs added to their former charac terizations, for the comedians of this organization have been allowed full play In Inserting their own Individual ideas of comedy to the ultimate benefit of the wholo as it laughing show. There have also been many new musi cal Interpolations since "The Little Duchess" was last presented here, and considerable revision In the book,, so It comes as an old friend In a new garb. The splendid production of scenery effects, costumes and gorgeous Parisian gowns'which have always been a dls- tlngulehjng feature of "The Littlo Duchess" will bo seen again, and the fact that this wfll be the first presents. • lion of this musical comedy at popular prices should prove a potent dra | drawing attraction for The week of nine per formances at the Bijou. It t. of the style of entertainment that appeal, most strongly to the clientele of that theater—primarily a laughing show, with one of the strongest corps of com edians of the season; a beautiful set ting and costumlc equipment; catchy music and an unusual array of femin ine loveliness In the chorus. larlously funny fHm, entitled "Woman Up to Date." This Is a great take oft on the new woman and shows the many Interesting complications which would follow If there were such a thing bb free suffrage. For the concluding bill there Is offered that well-known trage dy, "The Double Life." ThlB Is a ver sion of the great story of double iden tity made famous In this country by All Ths Amuse U, Always on the alert to please the large audlencea which dally filter Into the Amuse U moving picture theater, on the Viaduct place, now better known as the “War Path,” Manager Robins announces a change of bill for Monday and Tuesday, which will be one of the best collections of moving pictures ever shown In the South. An entire play, "Retribution," which Is onothor napie for "The Bells,” made famous In this country through Its pro duction by that great tragedian, Sir Henry Irving, will be the first picture play offered. It Is the story of a man who commits a murder and Is so haunted by his crime that he Is killed by his conscience. This, film Is some times referred to as "The Brand of Cain,” and has made a reputation trhoughout the country for the clear ness with which It Is produced. The tragedy Is to be followed by the come dy, "Flirting on the Sand." This film gives a good view of the rolling beach, the dashing waves and the many bath ers In the surf. Pastime Palace Theater. From the opening concert by the Mitchell Family Orchestra Mondqy aft- ernoon through the last act on the bill. Manager Holland hae arranged a pro gram for the vaudeville house In the 1’astlme Palace Theater which will be the beet yet offered. The management has set about to give a high-toned, hrst-class vaudeville bill at a moderate cost, and how well It has succeeded Is attested by the fact that the little thea ter is crowded at all of the perform ance! given during the two continuous shows. Beginning Monday afternoon for the first continuous show, whlcn lasts from 1 o’clock to G. and again In the evening from 7 o'clock until 11. the bill will be as follows: Len and McAllister, acrobatic corn elians. Miss Lee White will continue at this theater for another week. Her high soprano voice is both sweet ana flexible. Little Miss Mitchell, the child wonder, will give a number of selec tion. on tho trombone. She handles "ith ease, a lyirn that Is taller than herself and extracts wonderful notes. Perry and White will follow with a novel sketch. The Rowes, Leonard ang Rose, who made such a hit this week In "A Tip on the Derby." have been retained for another week, when they will present "A Letter From Kittj. For ‘lean and refined vaudeville the bill at the Pastime Palace Theater can not be beaten. St. Nicholas Auditorium. More popular than ever has become the health-giving pastime of roller skating and the large rink In the St. Nicholas Auditorium at Ponce DeLeon Park Is the source of delight to thou sands of Atlantans. During the past few days of this week there has been an unprecedented number of begin ners on the floor learning this Invig orating exercise. The management In anticipation of this Increased Interest has secured al number of Instructors to take the beginners In hand, and this safeguards against any accidents. The skates furnished are of steel and ball bearings. which Insures a smooth and easy stride. The floor, which Is the largest In the South, Is In the pink of perfection, and the fastest possible speed can be mode upon It without fear of fall or Injury. When Ponce DeLeon Park opens In May the man agement anticipates putting on another monster masquerade carnival. The full details of the coming carnival, with a full list of prizes to be offered, will bo announced In a short while through these columns. In order to add to the already great and growing pop ularity of the rink, the management has Installed Millar’s Military band for each evening, and for special matlneea on Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday, when a varied program will be given for the matinee skaters. UNKNOWN LITTLE ACTRESS WON DESERVED OVATION IN MANNERING’S ROLE Helen Macbeth Rose To The Occasion Wonderfully. Address to Planters. Special to The Georgian. Monroe, Oa, April 27.—Needed Im petus was given the local Cotton Aeso- elation by the very strong address of Hon. E. C. Smith, of South Carolina, In this city yesterday. His address was pronounced by all who heard It as the most forcible pre sentation of the needs of the farmers that has been delivered In this city. Forced Into the glare of the spotlight by the absence of a famous star, re ceived at first with bare toleration from a disappointed audience, an unknown littlo woman fought her way Into the hearts of Atlanta theatergoers at El Dorado Friday night. When she paused for the verdict, there, was a moment it silence, then such an ovation as hae been given to few players, even to those who wear the laurels of past seasons’ successes. Helen Macbeth, the understudy for Mary Mannerlnr, has been playing ths title rols In ‘‘Olorlous Betsy" since ths Illness of her little daughter forced Miss Mannerlng (Mrs. James K. Hackett) to leave the company at New Orleans and hasten to New Tork. The news that Miss Mannerlng would not appear caused many to take advantage Manager Thompson’s offer and ask for a return of their admission payments. But, strange to say, before the end of the first act there were few vacant ■eats. Many must have purchased the same tickets which others hod returned In disappointment. But It was an audience representative of Atlanta’s best which filled El Do rado. Marietta street was brighter with motor and carriage lamps than for many an evening, while the sidewalk leading from, Peachtree was presented an appearance unfamiliar to the thor oughfare. Before the curtain rose one of the Ing would not appear, and that Miss Helen Macbeth would take her place. perhaps r the abse there was a feeling play Itself might atone for of its star. Then Miss Macbeth appeared, trip ping In barefooted as Betsy Patterson, spoiled belle of Baltimore. Of slight physique, black-eyed, not beautiful but honestly pretty, she loowked Incapable of a powerful role. But ehe rose to the emotional scenes In the third act as capably as she laughed through the lighter lines of the preceding scenes. She was as familiar with her lines as though a season of success lay behind her Instead of merely study for a pos sible contingency. It she lacked any essential quality It was that she hail not always control of her voice, which Is perhaps not robust enough for a season In a heavy role. But those who are familiar with Miss Mannerlng and her work express s doubt that even that famous actress could have better portrayed the belle of Baltimore. The repeated curtain calls given her at the close of every act gave evidence that there were no disappointed ones In her audience. The company Is a capable one. with no members worthy of an extended mention. Robert Warwick, as Jerome Bonaparte, Is a player of splendid physique and as good an actor as are most of those selected as foils for a popular actress. Herbert Carr, as Bet sy's father, gave a delightful portrayal ’, by Rida Ths Twin Theater. The management of the Twin theater, In Whitehall street has arranged a urogram of wide range for Monday and Tuesday, which Is sure to please the ■urge number of ladles and children who dally visit this little theater.

Paris, April 27.—With peace confer ences ending and about to come, til* political situation Is nevertheless any thing but reassuring, and there are irumbllngs from the great volcano on which wb, here In Europe, live which are signs of the struggle between the nations many think must coma and bring about readjustment of things be fore we dare, hope for universal peace. It le not that there are any acute symptoms of any great Importance, but the great nations all armed to the teeth are all living In a state of suspense which Is exceedingly painful. It may be said without any prejudice that the whole situation centers around the kaiser, who, without any Intention on his part.

He spoke with great enthusiasm of the Japanese soldier sa he had seen him during the elcge of Port Arthur. He admitted, however, that the Russians are probably even better soldiers. In as far as no amount of adversity will affect them, but said that they were poorly led.

Thus the meeting between King Ed ward and King Victor Emanuel caused the knlser much uneasiness, and this was, as always, reflected In the German press, which used columns to express an act which to any unprejudiced ob server was nothing but an act of polite, ness, without Bny political significance. To make matters worse, the French minister of year. General Plcquart. chose this time to Inspect the fortress of Hclport, and In his automobile drove for miles along the German frontier.

The "Auto" has announced that It will se lect three of the beat French swimmers, who will try to finish the Journey, but each other. It is to be arranged thus; The best iFrench swimmer Is to take to the water first, and the others are to accompany him by boat. When bis strength Is spent he will be succeeded by another, and, should the second not succeed, he will be followed by a third, who will tr yto finish the Journey, but on no account will a swimmer who has left the water be allowed to con tlnue In the attempt. It Is hoped to settle the question as to whether tne terrible currents which since Captain Webb's time have always thwarted even such good swimmers as Holbein and Burgess can be overcome by men who are fresh and unfatlgued. The "Auto" has suggested that a match against three swimmers of another na tion would make this sporting event of no small Importance.
