JKext weekV Orpheum program la full of features, no leading stars, but an all-round general vaudeville feast. Sev eral of tbe sots promised have been headliners In big circuits and the ag gregation will cost the theater about as much as any bill of the season—and vaudeville comes high In this day of rivalry. Harry B. Lester, the Jovial Jester. Is one of tbe leading numbers. Ills Imita tions of George Xjohan and Billy Clif ford are said to be masterpieces of mimicry, and he has a monologue full of good things. E. F. Hawley A Co., with Miss Fran ces Haight as leading women, will pre sent "The Bandit," a western one-act melodrama and an oddity In vaude ville. Welch, Francis A Co. will offer the skit, "The Flip Mr. Flop," which In cludes five persons In the cast, and Is said to be a screamingly ninny farce. Interrupted by spnsms of music. The Three Abdallah*. a trio of Arn- hluiis. will appearln Oriental acrobatic feats which are said to differ wonder fully from the usunl acrobatic turns. Harvey and DeVorn will appear In grotesque songs and dance specialties. Bert Harvey Is a well known comedian and Millie DeVora, a comedienne of some fame, and the combination should prove popular. The Bison City Quartette should prove equnlly ns popular a singing art aa "That Quartette." which made the biggest musical hit of the vaudeville season two week* ago. The four sing ers nra said to rank with any In the country, and their songs are of a popu lar summery nature. Tha Orpheum motion pictures will close the bill, on Tuesday night n spt ctnl performance will be given for the benefit of the Boys' Club of Atlanta, and a big house Is expected. The thea ter Is one of the coolest buildings In Atlanta and the audiences are not di minishing since the warm weather come. Sente are on sale two weeks In advance end win be reserved for tbe season If desired. Amateurs at Orpheum, .Jessie Reynolds, who boasts the title of "obampton buck dnnoer of Atlanta," captured first prise at the amateur car nival at tha Orphotun Friday night, but was run n dose second by tbe Iosng- don Slaters, a pair of Juvenile singers. They were awarded second prise Grant and Brown, black fere come dians, took third. Otto feature of tbe ramtval was that several members of the audience threw money to tbe performsrs, most of It to "DORATHORNE"NEXT AT BIJOU THEATER Special Matinee Monday in Honor of Memorial Day.

On May 4 the Oiffen company, which la to be nt the Grand throughout the summer aeaaon, will return to Atlanta and present "The Man on the Box," Instead of "The Prisoner of Zend a," as at first announced. In order that this production tuny have all of the finish of n real organ* Isatlon, It will be presented nt Nash ville during the week and when It Is produced in Atlanta It will have been tried and donbtleaa not found wanting. While "the play la the thing," ac cording to Shakespeure, It Is the play ers which moke or mar a summer or ganisation. TbU company has made a success In Atlanta and Its future Is as. S ured. Therefore, a bit of Intimate etall In regard to each member or the cast, who are to be seen tn so many various roles, will not come In amiss and will serve to give the theater going public a bit of Insight Into tbe players whom they will come to know so well. For this reason this article lias been prepared so as to present the va rious fads, foibles, fancies, sports nnd hobbles of Atlanta's summer theatri cal company. It la Just these little things which will give the audiences a keener knowledge of those who will amuse them than anything else that could be found. Kmmett Corrigan, the leading man. has in recent years been Identified with prominent productions, playing the title role In Klaw A Erlangen's stupendous spectacle, "The Prince of India," nnd Just before that "Ben Hur," under the same management, moving to that part from HlraonfUe* In the same play. He has a place on the Maine coast, where either In the water on his 32-foot yacht, equipped with a Fairbanks motor, or on short In his Pope-Toledo touring car, he gets lots of amusement In the summer months. He Is Interested In all athletic sports. Miss Frances Nordstrom, the leading woman, ham had a wide aloek of ex perience, has played In Mrs. Flake's companies nnd Madison Square theater reductions.

And then Is unfolded one or the cleverest stories ever taken from life of a playwright’s pen. The action is swift, dramatic and of Intense Interest. The sue- comedy by Htantey, the explorer. On the Eng lish stage he has played with Sir Henry Irving. Sir Charles Wyndham and Wil son Barrett, creating the role of Nero i Is his game.

Icapped his career, turned his atten tion. while he remained convalescent lo the hospital, to the study of medicine and subsequently he served aa interne for a considerable length of time. James T. Calloway was Janies A. Herne's stage manager, and played in many of his plays, notably In "Shore Acres," where not infrequently he play ed Herne’s own part, Nathaniel Berry, when Herne had Indulged too deeplj*. After Herne’s death he played the part continuously for several years. Mr. Galloway has a fine little farm Just out from Alexandria, Va.. where he raises poultry to Ills heart’s content. Herman Lleb, remembered for his ex cellent work as the absinthe fiend in "Kleachna," has played many import ant parts, such as Tllford Wheeler in "The County Chairman," Captain Hfidgman In "Arizona,” Lord Jack Comyn In "Richard Carvel," etc. While a member of the Netv Theater, at Chi cago, he created Iji the United States the role bf Ulrich Brendel in Ibsen’s Rosmersholtn," now being*played In Mrs. Flske’s production by George Ar- Ilss. Mr. IJeb is a prince of good fel low’s, especially fond of nutomoblllng, nnd knows his White steamer from searchlight to license number. Fond oa he Js of Jt, it shares a comparatively small place In his heart with his 12- year-old daughter, now away at school, but who will be with him later in the season. Nelly Angell and Gladys Granger are mother and daughter in real life, and have been for the last six years with E. S, Willard, playing prominent roles In all of his productions. In the recent production of "Colonel Newcombs" they created respectively the part of Lady Farrell and Rosie McKensIe, scoring successes. At home on Long Island they have a ramshackle looking build ing outside, but delightfully comfort able inside. Miss Evans, the Ingenue of the com pany, thinks more of reading books than anything else, tho all out-door sports Interest her. especially horseback riding. Her favorite pet Is a toy dog known ns "Moospr,” which she care fully muzzles when strangers are about. Another pet animal In her "lifeless" collection Is known as "The Gink, which, when squeezed, talks a language known as ‘Goof." Miss Evans was with Henrietta Croanmn during the past season and also In the Mudlson Square theater production of "The Coming of Mrs. Patrick," where she scored hits. Forest Wlnnnt is a graduate of the Stevens Institute of Technology, but follows the stage from sheer love of It.

Appleton & Co.) The author of "The Fighting Chance" and "The Younger Set" has published a new book called "Some Ladles In Haste," and Mr. Chambers, who does seem to write pleasantly of club and society life In New York, not possibly ns it Is, but as it should be, tells us In hls latest book of ten young men and women who became very busy In love's affairs. A young clubman of New York by the name of Manners had more time and money on hls hands than he knew* what to do with.

Manners beln,g un able to break himself of smoking, went to n sanitarium where he was cured and where he also became familiar to a great extent with "mental sugges tion" nnd "absent treatment." Man ners had four particular friends, mem bers of the Lotos Club, of whom he was very fond. These young fellows were entirely too commonplace to suit Manners. They had no romance - In their make-ups at all. They were busy down town getting rich quick, to Man ners decided to "demonstrate” upon them hls mental suggestion thru absent treatment Looking out of the window the same afternoon he saw pass by five young women whom, thru hls one eyeglass, he did not recognise, so he “demon strated" on them. too. causing all of the trouble. The club friends he worked on were Kelvin. Todd (called "Toddy 1 a social Indictment that he was s «py and a thief employed by King Grorp. At this time most of Curtis' friend, st Bath were engaged In a conspiracy against King George to place Stusrt on the throne, and Curtis had been ot tered a bribe (but had declined It) to betray hls friends.

Kelvin meets Manners' half-way fiancee, falls In love with her at sight an(l she with him; they were married. All of tho other-demonstrated-upon couples meet each other nnd are married (living hap py ever afterward, let us hope). Then Manners loses hls money, nnd goes to live on a deserted farm. There he run# across In a ridiculous way the last re maining mental suggested female, also living on a farm. He tnoses this love ly girl up a tree, makes love to her, Is accepted and the book ends.

It 1s Just as well to let readers know right at the start what or who "The Fair Moon of Bath" was. The Fair Moon was a very charming and beauti ful woman, who went around coating ■pells over all aorta and conditions of men, when she ought not to have done so. There was also a glorious Sun of Bath. A rival of the Fair Moon. The Fair Moon was Miss Celia Winnlngton. a delightful young person. Her rival, the Sun, was Miss Dorothy Smallahaw, another delightful female. There sim ply can not be too many of such In books or life. Timothy Curtis, a young gentleman of pleasure In the eighteenth century, had been Informed by hls uncle and guardian that as he (Timothy) was very poor In worldly goods, he must marry the rich heiress selected for him. Miss Dorothy Smallshaw. Cur- when he ts Instructed how, am whom to fall In love. He came to hate Miss Smallshaw’* name and declined even to call to aee her. Then he met Fair Moon nt Bath under romantic conditions, and everybody can see the answer at once. For Curtis fell In love with Mis* Celia Winnlngton and wished to marry her wlUy-nllly and he waa getting along finely with hi* wooing until he was brought under a cloud hy son had charge of Mr. Halstead's motor car and the latter Jumped on Sander son one* too often when Sanderenn gave hls employer a piece of hls mind and threw up hls Job. Then Sander- ■on had an Idea which he went Into seclusion to perfect. This Idea was to build a motor boat which would prop* Itself thru th* water at the rate of 19) mile* per hour. Sanderson won oil and completed hls boat, which he call'd the Projectile. The book tells of die experiences and escapades which Sm- derson had with the Projectile and ner crew on their voyage of piracy. Of course, with a boat capable of 160 nllf* per hour, Sanderson and hls crew vert Immune, to say the least, from paiult or capture. Sanderaon would call jpoa a yacht, rob tha owner, get back onto the Projectile and, before anjbodf could say Jack Robinson—where *r** Sanderson 7 Nobody knew but every body, particularly Sanderson's victim*, tried to find out.
