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.

JRa C j -I™™ Three' Dolce sis- next week’s Forsvlh bill ‘•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.
