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.

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. GIRL RIDES ON PORPOISE.

UAL., Nov. 22 Miss Caroline Kimball, of Chicago, fainted in the surf at Ocean I’ark after having been carried several feet, on the back of a large porpoise With scores of other bathers. Miss Kimball was near the pier when a large school of porpoises came rolling in Miss Kimball started for the beach, when one of the largest divt d near her. She jumped and got in the path of the porpoise, which carried her on its back a short distance TIEDEM AN TO DECIDE ON MAYORALTY RACE SUNDAY SAVANNAH GA. Nov, 22.—Mayor George W.

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.
