MILTON H. SMITH, OF L. & N.,
IS AS TALKATIVE AS EVER

President Smith wouldn't iny any

paaaed out hla proverbial "Nothing to

porter.

to hta stenographer and aend It to the
newapaper office. And that'* not often.
A few newapaper men. In the 40 yenr*
of Prealdent Smith'* *x*cutlv* work,
have asserted they were *ucc***ful In
Interviewing him. However, they Just
happened dong when ha had a type-
written statement to give out and ploy
ed the messenger boy act.
The writer, an old-timer now, did hi*
first work on The Nashville American,
twenty years ago. The Cjty editor etrung
him good one day when he assigned him
to go over to the Maiwtll house and get
an Interview with Prealdent Smith. It
waa about the same kind of a Job aa In
terviewing th* sphinx. Nothing doing.
The city editor laughed loud and long
when th* rub came back and reported
that he wouldn't talk. And later the
veteran told the rub that many good re
porters had failed for years In “getting
to” the magnate.
Monday- evening the same reporter
caught Prealdent Smith strolling thru
the Piedmont lobby.
'Van I have a little talk with you.
Mr. Smith?" This very artfully and
with all th* diplomacy Isarned In twen
ty years.
"Not for publication." and he repeat
ed this expression perhaps for the thou,
aandth time It I* Hk* th* old alga.
"Keep off the grass."
"Mr. Smith, did you come to Atlanta
In connection with th* Atlanta and
West Point's annual meeting Tues
day?"
The magnate took a long sweeping
look at the folk* In th* lobby. Then he
laid his Anger on the glaring headline*
of an afternoon pink paper, which aadd:
Athletics won.” and smiled.
"How long will you be here, Mr.
Smith?" This was trying out another
tack.
Again he swept the lobby with his
eyes. Then he looked down to the
scribe—kindly, benignly, with a twinkle
In hla eye. Hla fare broke Into a broad
smile and he strolled off to the dining
room—etlll unlntervlewed.
The snow* of winter are falling on
the head of this man w ho for two-acore
years haa been a colossu* In Southern
development. The great far* Is thin
ner, th* once handsome full chin beard
Is gone, succeeded by a thin fringe of
gray.
Beyond that there la little change,
except perhaps he walk* slower and
with more deliberation than twenty
yrars ago. The face of the old railroad
king la as strong aa ever, except that
the benevolence of age Is setting there.
At th* Atlanta.
"Madame Sherry" appeared at the
new Atlanta theater on Monday even
ing looking a* fresh and merry as when
she made her first bow to an Atlanta
audience laat year In the Orpheum thea
ter. A larg* audience was present, and
the appreciative applause was as spon
taneous as ever—In fact, there was a
little more than formerly, for several
member* of the cast established them
selves In public favor on the previous
visit and received flattering welcome
back again oh Monday night. Charm
ing Miss Ada Meade was the recipient
of a near-ovatlon, her first and every
appearance being greeted with liberal
applause. A* Tvonn*. Miss Meade ha*
made a name for her dainty self, which
will no doubt launch her soon In the
Broadway firmament of stare. She I*
ns pretty aa a picture and, beside* pos
sessing the gift of singing and dancing,
•he has a fascinating personality which
reaches beyond the footlights and
makes friends with each Individual
member of her audience. Mia* Alta
Virginia Houston, aa "Catharine," I* an
other popular member of the cast, and
she also received her share of welcom
ing applause and appreciation for her
every number. Ben Grlnnell, aa Phll-
llppe. Is splendid, and an original mem
ber of the cast, as Is also Nell McCay,
ns Edward Sherry, and Harry Stephens,
as Leonard Gomes. New member* of
the cast who made hits at the first
of a series of performances here are
Mis* Mne Phelps as Peplta, and Miss
Esmey Alton as Lulu.
"Madame Sherry" Is too well known
for comment except as to the manner
of Its production. And suffice to say,
the present company Is Just as good as
ever, and the popular musical play 1s
given with every detail as fresh and
as charming as when Atlanta was de
lighted with last year's performances.
Thera are ssvernl new songs which are
particularly fetching, two being decid
edly good: "We Loved Each Other In
th* Long Ago," by Tvonne and Edward,
and “The Smile She Means for You,"
by Yvonne, Edward, Lulu. Leonard and
Catherine. These are In addition to the
good things of old, the ever-dellghtful
“Every Little Movement," "That Dub
lin Rag," "The Birth of a Butterfly."
and so on, and so on, to say nothing
of the many pretty dances which are,
however, one of the strongest features
of “Madame Sherry.”
Tussday, Wednesday and Thursday,
with a matinee on Wednesday, will
Madame Sherry” be presented at ths
Atlanta this wssk.
At ths Grand.
With the same enthusiasm which has
greeted It svsr sines Its Initial perform
ance, "The Clansman" was greeted with
— bjr th a au-
■ame wild
Sen
amerun, “Ths Clansman," and ths
same hisses greeted the efforts of "Silas
■-yneh." ths negro lieutenant governor
if South Carolina.
Ths play has lost none of Its excite
ment during Its severe! years on the
road. Ths same scenes which stirred
thousands on Its first visit continue to
•core hits. Ths asms negro Jokes which
mads so many laugh sevsral years ago
have lost non* of thslr comedy and
ing an uproar of laughter.
Th* play Is too wall known to review
It here. There is possibly not a South
erner who Has not either read th* two
books, "The Clansman” and "The Leop
ard's Spots," by Thomas Dixon, or seen
ths play.
Clyde M. Shropshire, ths Atlanta boy
who played ths part of Ben Camsron,
"Ths Clansman,” scored the signal hit
of ths performance. He Interpreted ths
aracter In Its true spirit and his clear,
deep Southern voice gave It an atmos
phere which It hsa lacked at the hands
of former Interpreters of that character.
Mr. Shropshire's work with this part
E dicts for him a bright future with
•tags career. He Is still young and
ths outlook for him Is Indeed promising.
Myron Paulson, who played ths role
of ths negro lieutenant governor of
South Carolina^ did so with much cred
it. Hs never failed to draw hlssss from
his audlsnce for hla work with ths part.
Eve and Nslse, the two otd-tlms ala-
try negro ss, were aa popular aa ever
Ith th* crowd. These characters were
moat ably presented by Blanche Boyer
and Harry Bartell.
"The Clansman" will be played at ths
Grand Tuesday and Wednesday nights,
with a matinee Wednesday.
"Ths Gamblsrs."
In "The Oamblera." which will be
seen at th* Grand Monday, October Ik
for three days, with matinee Wednes
day, Charles Klein, by several deft
touches, has contrived to put k tew
technically fraudulent bankers In a
most favorable and sympathetic light,
and the agents of the law and commer-
1*1 morality In an unfavorable one. The
theme of Mr. Klaln’s story hsa received
most favorable comment, aa his char
acters are true to every-day Ilfs.
