Mr. Hodge is nov in his lit'th season in the role of DanieT Voo hees Pike, a country lawyer from In diana. and in that period he has carried the play through a series of remarkable runs, which include 70 weeks at the As to’ theate in Nev York. 42 weeks In Chicago and 31 weeks in Boston, in ad dition to a coast-to-eoast tow last sea son. It will be recalled that although the play is essentially an American one in its spirit and the ’esson it draws, its scenes are nevertheless all laid in Italy and it is the projection of the Western lawyet in foreign scenes and circles and the dominant resourceful way in which he outwits a band of mercenary adven turers that heightens’ the interest of the story by affording sharp contrasts. The character of Daniel Voorhees Pike and the personality of Mr. Hodge are happily cenvnted. M-. Hodge's meth ods are of the slow, quiet, but Incisive, order that recall the work of Sol Smith Russell and, Indeed, many critics have remarked the decided similarity of those two actors, not alone in the char acter of their work, but in the manifes tation of temperament and personality. The company has for its leading woman Gertrude Hitz, a young actress whose charm of manner and person supplement a fine measure of acting ability. That excellent actress Ida ■ Vernon, whose caree. is one of honor. and distinction throughout nearly 50 years on the stage, still retains her ' original part of Lady Creech. Harold !

Society folk, always looking for something really new. have thronged the Lyceum and the Bijou theaters- fn New York all sum mer, where the pictures are now com pleting their seventh month on Broad way. Startling in their realism, tiie pictures hold the attention of the audience con tinuously, for the scenes are unique. Wild beasts in tlieir native haunts were caught by the camera man. drinking at tlie water-hole—here a long-necked gi raffe, there a ponderous rhinoceros, with zebras galloping in among the strange group, and later a little fam ily of elephants sticking their trunks into the cooling pool. A snarling hyena caught in a trap, will make you feel glad that you are a few thousand miles away from the scene. Then the chase of the leopard, or cheetah, wljieh the American dogs treed and killed, the whole scene de picting to the end. when each dog takes a final srfap at his prey. The shooting of the big rhino and the lion hunt are wonderful. The os trich pictures, a monkey at play and the scenes on Mr. Tarlton’s animal farm I are also attractive features of an en tertainment. that will prove as enjoy able as it is wonderful and instructive. Mr. Rainey, who is a young Cleveland I I millionaire, spent $25<t,000 on his • -xpo- I I dition. b it the money was well 'pent., ‘ for he has added a- uipter to th> book I jof natural s< on e tm.i i oilld hardly be I dU, ■ 10,1 THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS.

Tiie company to present “The Pink Lady" here Is the st ongest and pret tiest organization Klaw * Erlanger have identified with :his.*their pet at traction. and in many lespects it com prises all the o'fgina! players that par ticipated in last season's presentation here and in the initial London produc tion. It numbers 100 persons and in cludes a cast that was selected to its Individual strength. In addition to the chorus, an important detail of the or ganization is the New Amsterdam the ater, New York, band and orchestra that has played Ivan Caryll's delightful score all through the New York run, and is now traveling with the company. “MISS NOBODY FROM STARLAND'’ IS BOOKED FOR THE ATLANTA. XX ith an excellent cast of principals, headed by the well-known pritna donna, Olive Y’all, the popular musical com edy revue, Miss Nobody from Star land," will come to the Atlanta No vember 11 and 12. “Miss Nobody front Statland" presents all th.it is desirablt jin a musical comedy, a genuine plot. • |eiever characterizations, tuneful music,) I witty dialogue, novel features and \ I scenic oleganci’. enhanced by a beauty ; chorus '..i.ucli figures piontinent'y. ,-s. ' I ' ' iHy ii Ho ly >l.in< e number* j BILL OF FEATURES IS OFFERING AT THE GRAND Just when vaudeville ever offered such a promising entertainment as is suggested by the bill that will be the attraction at the Grand for next week would be hard to recall. Some of the most distinguished features and head liners the profession affords have been routed to appear at the Grind, and for many weeks to come tiie headliners a,e of exceptional magnetism and real qual ity. « Next week's bill is a forerunner of the great things that are to happen. The program consists of features and stars and headliners that are known by reputation and some by personal visits to Atlanta. One of the stars of the bill will be Bert Leslie, supported by bls personally selected company. Mr. Leslie, a former newspaper man, now one of the best known «<nd highest salaried vaudeville artists in the land, is known as “The King of Slang " He han coined more slang expressions than any one alive. About two-thirds of the every-day ex pressions used by all the people as a short cut around a long command or a curtailment of good English came from : the brilliant mind of this entertainer. Mr. Leslie ha* been offering a series of i "Hogan" sketches, but because of tUe great demand for his services in the ■vaudeville theaters, it lias not been possible until this time to engage pim , I I'll appearance in Atlanta, but he i* in | i be here and will make up i. r ail lost time. Anothet star will be beautiful Laura Guerite. u Broadway favorite, who has been Identified with a great many mu sical comedy su< < es-es. Miss Guerite has an exclusive vaudeville specialty. In which she will be assisted by Art iur Conrad, who Is a most v®.satile young man. Os course Atlanta knows Bort Fitz gibbon! More than 18.000 people were attracted to the thea.ei when lie ap peared in this city last. The songs lie song the Jokes lie told, the cutups he registered and the fun he had with the musical director, and all that sort of thing won for tiie “daffy dil" a position In Atlanta that will hardly be palled dow n. Six pretty, prancing show girls, who, , have been identified with tiie Montgom ery & Stone ahows, with l-ew Fields' ■ companies, and with other tnusica l stie | cesses, and who are the otiginal Bony ■Bullet, will be another feature and will j have something to do with the attend ance. I Redford and XX’ineitester, who do the j funniest burlesque jugging act that I was ever conceived, have just returned i j from a •27,000-tnile tom of the world,- and they are going to manufacture laughter while the audiences wait. This, is tiie best act of its sort and the hit it scored at the Orpheum some yeatsi ago has not been forgotten. Armstrong ami Manley, clever come-| dians. and Ben Peyer and Brother, in a . comedy bicycle offering, make up the J program “THE GIRL IN THE TAXI" IS BOOKED FOR THE LYRIC. " I tie Girl in the Taxi." the greatest 1 laughing success of the century, conies to the Lyrk next week. The story of "The Girl in the Taxi" is as laughable as it is interesting Its plot full to overflowing with situations and complications which move with the rapidity of a racing car on high speed. Lauguter is the keynote and the peals of merriment evoked from curtain to cuftaln follow each other like dis charges from a Gatling gun. The cli maxes are hilarious and side-splitting In their unexpectedness and originality. There is the father, a rich and respect ed banket who Is all that he should be while in the home circle, surrounded by his wife and by his son. Bertie. There is the nephew from Philadel phia who comes to New York twice a ye.r to have his throat treated by an | eminent New York specialist X friend of the family who is a vuy s turning up at the wrong moment cqn j tributes his share to complicate mat iters. A French maid. « io gives Bertie. I' • f> -t le<son« ii <>, i naking > iL'ni an important factor in the mix-ups which crowd the piece from start to finish. Add to these a perfume manufactur er from New Jersey with a wife who chooses rather to remain in New York and keep an appointment with Bertie instead of going back to Red Bank, her home, and the embarrassments which follow can better be imagined than de scribed. The musical specialties introduced throughout "The Girl in The Taxi” with songs and dances, contrast pleas antly with the rapid-fire situations and afford breathing spells in the merry making. “THE WINNING WIDOW” IS COMING TO LYRIC SOON. “The Winning XX'idow.” which will appear at the Lyric commencing Mon day, November 11, Is a splendid musical comedy entitled "At Home and Abroad,” and is in two acts. There are seven principals who furnish the fun. songs and specialties, and they are backed up by a beautiful chorus handsomely gowned. EMMA BUNTING TO APPEAR IN “LEAH KLESHNA” NEXT The question now is whether or not the Forsyth is going to be large enough to accommodate the crowds that are following Little Emma Bunting and her splendid supporting company. Os course. Miss Bunting's strong personal popularity has been half the battle. The plays already presented have met with hearty approval. The man agement has selected bills that are sure to please because each of them will permit the dainty leading lady to play a part that is away from the routine she has followed here before. In the plays already offered she lias astonished her best friends with her wonderful versa tility and that she will have a success ful season is a conclusion reached by all who keep in touch with such things. For the week that starts on Monday —and that includes matinee perform ances on Tuesday, Thutsday and Sat urday afternoohs—“Leah Kleshna,” one of the standard plays of modern times, wilt be the bill. The play has beer personally selected by Miss Hunting It is going to give her an opportunity to appear in an altogether different chur- BUJ.JjII! ■■■■■. _ ....
