Mark Program Planned by
Lieutenant Colonel Hall.
Soldiers of the Fifth Georgia infan
try are preparing for their military
tournament, January 15 and 16. when
they will show an admiring Atlanta
public how thoroughly they are
schooled, not only for the brilliant dress
parade, but for the arduous march, the
hardships of the camp and the gory
field of battle. During tile tournament
they will perform every martial act
from pitching a pup tent to chewing
embalmed beef.
Orders for the tournament were is
sued today by Lieutenant Colonel Or
ville Hall, commanding the gallant
Fifth, and details of the program will
be completed at a meeting of the of-
Icers of the regiment November 25.
In the meantime each company com
nander is expected to put his men in
perfect shape for the contests, and
Colonel Hall has received assurance
that the men have entered enthusias
tically into the spirit of competition.
The following details of the program
have already been arranged: Com
panies “A" and "B" will give an exhi
bition of pitching shelter tents. “C”
and "I” will give the bayonet drill. "K”
and ”L” will go through the setting up
exercises. "E,” "F,” "G” and "II” will
execute the old ceremony of mounting
guard. "M” company will execute a
machine gun charge, while "D” will
drill in close formation.
In a wall scaling contest, each com
pany will furnish one squad of eight
tnen.
Other features will be the cooking of
a bivouac meal, a tug of war and any
other military feat that the officers
suggest to the "committee.
Maude Adams and
Man Who Sneezed
Maude Adams spent one of the most
embarrassing minutes of her life last
night.
It was all on account of a. sneeze at
the Atlanta theater.
The sneeze was one of those loud,
lingering outbursts, emanating from a
man who seemed to take pleasure in
his accomplishment It shook the very
rafters of the theater during one of
those delightfully quiet, pathetic scenes
between Peter Pan and Guen.
Some hee-hawed because they
thought it was funny: others had been
wrought up by the wonderful little play
and they giggled nervously.
Maude Adams forgave the gigglers.
It was her acting that was responsible
for their misbehavior.
But she was not so lenient with the
others. She stopped in the middle of a
line, and those ni'ar the stage had the
novel experience of seeing something
resembling a scowl creeping over her
face.
It seemed as much out of place there
as a snowstorm on an August day.
Scientists say a man is near deatli
when he sneezes. Certainly the one
with the lingering sneeze was when
Miss Adams’ glance fell on him. The
glance rested on his contorted features
for several seconds. He looked like a
man trying to seem comfortable in the
electric chair.
The guffaws subsided and the play
went on. but after It was over Miss
Adams was heard to remark:
"There were some persons in the au
dience who evidently don't believe in
fairies."
But the man who sneezed will tell
you if you take the trouble to look him
up—that he does.
After the look he got from Miss Ad
ams, he is afraid not to.

MAUDE ADAMS MAKES
BIG ATLANTA AUDIENCE
BELIEVE IN FAIRIES
Maude Adams in "Peter Pan" was
I greeted by one of the largest audiences
of the season .it tile Atlanta last even
ing. Tin- same enthusiasm which
marked the reception of the play here
I Several years ago was evidenced by
; last night’s audience, most of whom
have seen the winsome actress in lie;
I mo-1 famous lull bel'vri . "Peter Pan.
las interpreted by Miss Adams, is a
I classic. Tlu role of the little boy who
j nev* r gr« wup suits the charming p<*r-
I sonality of ;•!<• actress as no other she
hos ever t« ;ited does, and pleases both
young and old-. That the entire world
of men and women have lingering rem
nants of childhood it» ‘hem seems to
be indicated by the response to Miss
Adams’ art which is drawn out in Peter
Pan, for the play is one of those that
gives back what is given ’out, and its
effect depends largely on the imagine
tlon of the Individual. He that hath
eyes to see finds great beauty in the
fanciful play.
Miss Ada ips has lost none of her I
eharm, but rather has gained, and her
company is an excellent one. Os espe
cial merit are Miss Dorothy Dunn as
Wendy and R. I*. Carter as the Pirate
Captain and as Mr. Darling. The scen
ic effects have been improved if pos
sible, the < ritiie production being one
of artistic merit and of a novel and
unique attraction.
EMMA BUNTING MAKES A
HIT IN “THE TWO ORPHANS”
There is remarkable interest in the pro
duction of “The Two Orphans” at the-
Forsyth, with Emma Hunting and the
splendid stock players giving excellent
portrayals of the characters of the fa
mous play.
The manner in which Miss Bunting
plays “Louise,” the blind orphan, gives
her a stronger hold on the theatergoers
than she has ever possessed. There is a
something about the clever little enter
tainer that wins the friendship of every
one who meets her over the footlights.
She is now numbering her friends by the
thousands, and the Forsyth is growing
more ami more popular every day.
For the first holiday week of the season
“Merely Mary Ann” will be the bill Miss
Bunting has selected the play herself,
after reading halt a dozen that had been
substituted. The Elenore Itobson success
Is a most interesting story, crowded with
just the sort of scenes that local people
like best and a magnificent scenic equip
ment is promised.
With Miss Bunting in the lead, support
ed principally by George Whitaker, Ber
tha lx*lgh, David Herblln and Ann Grid
ley, theatergoers may anticipate the real
treat of the season.

been sold for the remaining four per

ville. Theatergoers here have exhibited
a keen interest in vaudeville.for the past
two years, but never with so much real
interest as recently. The seating capaci
ty of the Grand is not going to begin to
take care of the demand for permanent
reservations.
Hits have been recorded this week by i
“Detective Keen,” the Frohman sketch:
Eddie Ixmnard, the minsrel star; the Wil- I
lis family of musicians, and the Japanese
acrobats
Thanksgiving week will usher in anoth
ler great combination of high-class fea
tures, and the attendance record of this
week will probably be broken. The
comedy of the bill is the strongest feature,
though novelty is going to have a fine in
ning. Among the stars will be 'Pom j
Nawn and company, in an Irish comedy
sketch; Kate Elinore, the funny woman. I
and Sam Williams, and Juliet, the pretty
girl singer who wa« an all-season fea
ture in New York. Seats are selling fast
