DRINK A BOTTLE Whip For Millionaire’; Horses Returns From London. Netv \° r k, July 9.-Mlsa Florence Schenck, ■ged 19, of Norfolk, Vi., and H. C. Wilson, manager of Alfred G. Vanderbilt's show racing horses, arrived here ou the steamship Minnehaha from London. Twenty-one horses belonging to Mr. Vanderbilt, which took pnrt In the International horse show, were also on the steamer. Miss Schenck Is the daughter of I)r. and Mrs. Powhatan* Scheiu k. She Is renowned as a whip of con slderable skill. At the Norfolk horse show last fall she drove some of Mr. Vanderbilt's horses in the show ring, and when the string was to be sent to the other side of the Atlpntlc to compete she accepted an engaement to go with them. Miss Schenck, who was !u a highly nervous state, talked about* *er trow- ble to the reporters as the steamship came Op the bay.| She said: Married in Richmond. "Wilson and I were married In Richmond, o.. ou October 19 last. We went abroad ss man and wife, but I have learned that he has a wife and children at Orange. Now I hate him. He has blighted my life,” she declared, hysterically. •*! ara now an out cast, without a frlcud In the world.

We were,” vehe mently persisted Miss Schenck. “and I have my marriage certificate to prove It." "Don't put any of this stuff in the pa pers," pleaded Wilson to the reporters. "It Is not true. I have a wife living In Orange, to whom I was married seven years ago. I’ve had trouble about It already, ami rui afraid If Mr. Vanderbilt sees this I’ll be asked to leave his service." Tcnra Course Down Cheeks. Tears were runntng down Miss Schenck's cheeks as she talked, and after wnltlng a minute to dry her eyes she continued: "Some time after the marriage he'took me to Orange and presented me to his wife ns a friend of Ills.

The bill Is ex ceptionally good with enough of the hair-raising. epectacular to make lovers of excitement alt up and enough of the really laughable to bring relaxation to the tired. Billy Benrd, "the party from tho South," might be said to be the star. Although he has a moat peculiar build, hla face, at leant hi* mouth, In hln for tune. With dinarming simplicity lie conductn a one-nided humorous conver sation filled with sharp thrusts, but never pausing for the laugh that gen erally arrives a few seconds over-due. The Sisters McConnell, Mtaxes Cath erine and Celeste, gave a turn In musi cal comedy that drew many encores. Their dancing was* novel In that It seemed absolutely natural, although both were highly animated. Their songs ere clover, provoking much laughter. Arthur Houston, as the queer juggler, developed some new and laughable tricks. It was the kind of performance that takes every one by surprise. Some of his stunts were exceedingly difficult while others were merely but very hu morous. Mitchell nnd Cain, the dialogue art Ists, the bicycle riders and jugglers, the burrel Jumpers and other numbers went to make up as entertaining a selection of vaudeville as tho Casino has pro- duced In many days. "Miss Hobbs*’ a Success. The Fawcett Stock Company came back Into Its own Monday night. Jerome K. Jerome's comedy. "Miss Hobbs." was produced In splendid style nnd a large* audience received the pro duction with great enthusiasm. "Miss Hobbs" Is one of these quiet comedies with Just enough heart Inter est to hold the uttontlon nnd with Just enough humor—and of the right kind, too—to keep the risibilities working without causing one. to lose the thread >f the pretty story. In Just such a play. It seems, the company Is at leg" best. Miss Jane Wheatley, In the title role, was the center of attraction most of the time, and she won new friends and admir ers. Regan Hughston, as "Klngsearl Major." did the hero stunts to the en tire satisfaction of the audience.* and Miss Phyllis Sherwood, ns Mltllcent Farey, was. of course, a favorite. Brandon Hurst, Frink Craven and Miss Ethel Conroy deserve especial mention for making the most of more less unimportant parts. "Miss Hobbs" will be at the Grand all the eek. Pastime Theater. No more delightful vaudeville bill as ever offered nt the Pastime Thea ter, on Peachtree street, than which.at tracted hundreds to the Monday mati nee and evening performances. Cooled by electric tuna, with a per fect system of ventilators Installed, it Is a delightful spot to visit evep on the warmest days. Tho program for this week contains some acts that have been featured wherever seen. The Claassen Sisters, the dashing dancing soubrettes, are a decided novel- ty and a great hit. Al McDonald, the prince of minstrel men, has n mono logue that would make an Indian laugh. Miss Day, the acknowledged queen of the skipping rope, does a turn that Is both novel and graceful. Earl Whit comb. the youngest monologulst on the stage, makes a hit and his little sister, Masle. dances her way Info populari ty. Miss Ann Stclnbern in songs with Illustrations closes a delightful pro gram. St. Nicholas Auditorium. No matter how 'muddy the water Is there Is always the pure Ponce DeLeon* spring water to be had at the skating rink or the 8t. Nicholas Auditorium at ponce DeLeon Park. TMs fountain "of perpetual youth" nestles just under the hill which Is crowned by this vast au ditorium, the home of the largest skat. OPERATORS READY TO RETURN TO KEY But Railroads Must Raise Salaries to Get 6,000 Men. . According to those who know, the railroads of the country will have no difficulty whatever securing the 6,000 telegraph operators additional they will need when the new law goes Into effect March 1, 1908, prohibiting the working of operators more than 9 hours In the twenty-four. But to get them they will have t6 pay more than $52.50 a month, which Is declared to be the average wage now paid railroad telegraph operators. "There flre | 1U ndre<ln of former rail road telegraph operators in Atlanta," said one who formerly w’orked at this business, "and they were compelled to take up other work In order to live. I saw by press dispatches from Chicago that 6,000 additional operators would be needed by the railroads. Well, It has been estimated that there are 15,000 former telegraph operators In the United States who quit the railroads in order to get enough money to live. There are many former railroad tele graph operators right here In Atlanta who are now engaged in the insurance and mercantile business; In the cleri cal departments of the various rail roads; with telephone companies and In various other trades, who would return to the key If the salaries would ogly be mode 'an Inducement. It la a noto rious fact that unskilled and Imported day laborers are now being paid more than a great many skilled operators, both working for the same road." But It Is doubtful If the railroads can secure competent men for an average wage of $52.50 a month. Frick 8ails Under Guard. New York, July Henry C. Frick sailed for Europe today.
