NEXT WEEK IN LOCAL PLAYHOUSES
‘OLD HOMESTEAD” COMES
TO ATLANTA TUESDAY.
The present season ts the twenty
se' enth of Denman Thompson’s "Old
Homestead.” The play is still as
eagerly looked forward to by theater
goers wherever it is announced for pro
auction. It is beyond question the most
perfect picture of simple country life
hat has ever been presented on any 1
stage. The bone-bred love of home, of
Justice, or right living, tempered with
sunny wit and kindly humor, finds its
best exponent in this delightful play.
Nearly everybody has seen it and
everyone will want to see it again. Its
story is so familiar as to make any re
iteration of it now unnecessary. Uncle
Josh will be found to be the same pic
turesque, typical figure of the prosper
ous. warm-hearted. God-fearing New
Hampshire farmer as of old. The pro
duction and cast will be the same as
on former occasions. The famous quar
tet of farm hands is still a leading
feature of the production. Not forget
ting that sterling character actor, E. L.
Snader, who for many seasons has play
ed the dear old New England farmer.
The company appearing here at the At
lanta theater Tuesday night and Wed

SEVERAL FINE ACTS WILL
BE SEEN AT FORSYTH
Popular vaudeville continues at tfie
Forsyth and there is every indication
that this new and successful form of
entertainment has become a splendid
feature in the theatrical field of At
lanta. It has been demonstrated be
yond any question that the acts bear
the Keith brand, and that the quin
tette of features making up the pro
gram are of the identical quanity that
has heretofore interested the theater
goers of Atlanta.
In presenting this week's bill, the
management has collected a combina
tion of talent that would be good
enough for any theater. Roberts.
Hayes and Roberts, an act of splendid
worth, one that has been identified
with numerous successes in musical
comedy and in vaudeville, will be the
feature. "Big Joe Roberts" is without
doubt one of the most versatile fun
prod"cers that the theatrical profession
can claim and his two assistants have
proven to be just the sort of foils
necessary for his unusual abilities.

‘•THE WHITE SLAVE" IS
NEXT LYRIC ATTRACTION.
Bartley Campbell's famous play, "The
White Slave,” will be the attraction at
the Lyric theater commencing' Monday
evening, September 9. The author
wrote many excellent dramas, replete
with human interest and breathing a
pure ami healthy sentiment, but none
of them exceeded his masterpiece, "The
White Slave.” in running over the
whole gamut of emotions, touching
chords of sweetness with an artist's
hand and changing at times to fitful
bursts of passion.
In this beautiful story of Southern
life in the ante-bellum days, the writer
showed his knowledge of human nature.
The sto y of the drama is a simple
one. A girl grows up in an aristocratic
Southern home under the belief that
she is an octoroon, and falls a slave
into the hands of a man who would
betray her She escapes with her lov
er, and after passing through many
perils, happiness comes at last with the
knowledge that she is a free-born
white woman.
Os this slender material, the author
wove an interesting plot. In treat
ment, in tints and coloring, the story
is distinctly Southern, but it rises
above other dramas built on a similar j
I ground-work in that it is free from ev- i
erything sectional.
A rich embroidery surrounds the
language, and a quiet undercurrent of
humor gives a lighter tone to the som
ber parts of the play.
ANOTHER GOOD BILL
BOOKED FOR BIJOU
During the three years in which the
Bijou has been in operation there have
been very few repeats and some re
markably clever acts have been of
fered to patrons of this house. For
next week one of the strongest bills
of the year is announced, consisting
of the Morrisy Trio, a singing and
dancing act; the Powers Trio, a nov-
. elty variety act; Savo, a comedy jug- ■
i gier, and Gibson and Ranney. Lovers
iof vaudeville and those who keep up ;
with this class of attractions will see |
at a glance that a very clever show
is announced and one that should pack
the Bijou from pit to dome at every
performance. Following the usual
; custom, motion pictures will be se
lected to open and close each per
formance and these will be changed
daily. Matinees are given daily ar 3
o'clock except Saturday, when two
matiliees are given at and t. ,
Xight shows at 7:30 and 9.
ALKAHEST LYCEUM WILL
HAVE MANY ATTRACTIONS.
The Alkahest Lyceum Course for the
cottrng season promises to be the most
popular series presented for several
years. The management has secured the
very best talent which money can buy
and is presenting it for the benefit of I
the people at the prhe of $1 forth. |
■enti e season, with 50 cents and $1 |
I extra for reserving the seats. Tin.' ;
I course will be held at the new Baptist
Tabernacle this year instead of the
I Grand opera house. The seating ca
pacity of the Tabernacle is at least one
third more than that of the Grand,
which means that the’e will be about
500 more good seats to be secured bj
those who call early for their tickets.
Tickets will go on sale September 16
for one week at the Cable Piano Com
pany. opposite the Piedmont hote Al
ready 400 orders have been received
and announcements have not yet beer,
mailed out to prospective patrons.
Thl- series is composed of musical
attractions of wot Id-wide reputation,
four of the most remarkable lectur
ers on the American platform, an i a
Metropolitan opera star, it is thought,
will be announced at an early date.
The series opens with the Edwin R.
Weeks company, composed of Mr. and
| Mrs, Edwin R. Weeks and Miss Lulu
i Sinclair These artists are old favor
ites in Atlanta. Mr. Week-, as an im
personator, humorist, musician and en
tertainer, has few equals in the lyceuin
iof today. Following the Weeks com
| pany, which is booked for October 8,
will appear the Apollo Concert compa
ny. Dr. Thomas E. Green in his new
lecture, "The Burden of the Nations;"
Ralph Parlette, of Chicago, editor of

What We Never Forget

sociated with our early home life, such
as Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, that mother
