Fitch, fore ,a, for Lane Bros., disappeared from Xtiaiita Sunday, leaving his affairs to l>e disposed of by superior court. j. a. York, acting for Fitch’s two c l)ii(lren, went before Superior Judge Pendleton today and asked that a re ceiver be appointed for Fitch’s affairs, all ,l that his creditors be restrained from making attachments on the prop erty until the matter could be settled in t! interest of the children. Y,.rk. in filing suit through Hell & Hills, asserted that Fitch had been de umident of late because he had been ■unable to raise $678.80 to pay off ma terial claims on his Bellwood street property. York told the court that the house had been built only recently, and was worth $3,500. He said that Fitch had threatened to kill himself or “leave ti ? . country." Judge Pendleton named Albert Boyls f.n receiver for Fitch’s affairs, and granted a temporary order restraining the creditors from executing liens against the property until the case had been heard.

Ex-Star, Stricken With Grouch, Flees Atlanta SMOKE ROUTS SEMBRICH Mme. Marcella Sembrich’s ingrowing temperament cheated her out of an ex cellent bunch of gate money in Atlanta, in spite of the cold fact that the ad vance sale of seats wasn’t enough to pay gas bills. And if Mme. Sembrich, speeding toward Cincinnati today for a concert in that beer and music-loving city, knew how she had overlooked a bet the Pullman porter would be hiding under the seats to escape the. overflow of that once-star’s aforesaid tempera ment. For almost everybody at the Georgian Terrace and out Peachtree way had decided to go hear Sembrich and take in the oabaret show after ward, each being considered rather a novelty. The former songbird’s temperament began developing shooting pains short ly after her arrival in Atlanta Saturday afternoon. She didn’t like the weather and she didn’t like the wall paper in her apartments. The bell hop’s voice was slightly off the key and the club sent up a bottle of beer which had been too long off the ice. She didn’t like the people she saw on the streets and she didn't like the way her/new gown fitted across the back. Her left shoe pinched her toe and the woman she met in the tea room Insisted on calling her Sem week-end trip to Covington, made in Mr. Wilson’s touring car. They were guests of Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Adams during their visit. A party of young people going to Athens Thanksgiving day for the foot ball game and the cotillion which fol lows in the evening will include Misses Martine McCullouch, of Kentucky : Rose Briscoe, of Knoxville; Helen Hawkins and Annie Lee McKenzie, Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Adair. Jr., and Messrs. Milton Dargan, Dozier Lowndes and James Hines. brick instead of the more euphonious Som-brree. And, worst of all, she didn't like the smoke. That smoke came in the windows and soiled her collars and choked her expansive lungs and her ex pensive throat. It looked like a total eclipse on a foggy day. and it wasn’t sterilized. Perhaps Mme. Som-brrec might have rallied her courage and borne even a bum box sale, but she couldn’t swallow the smoke and be hap py. So at 5 o’clock on the evening of her concert siie packed her grips, sum moned her maid and sent a hurry call for a taxi to the train. It wasn’t the first time that a concert soprano had called oft an Atlanta date after reading the sales sheet and seeing mighty few seats taken in advance. Mme. Gadskl, a favorite in the Metro politan company, came South for a concert a season or so ago, took a glance at the seat sale and threw a fit. Five minutes afterward her physicians diagnosed it as tonsolitiS or refriger ated tootsies, and she blew the town in disgust. Manager Russell Bridges, of the Alk ahest Lyceum bureau, tried hard to convince the former star that it was her duty to carry out her contract, even if nobody were there but two deaf and dumb enthusiasts, the janitor and the program boy. But argument was of no avail. “But why should we be expected to pay $2 a seat to hear one soprano whose voice may be more interesting as a relic than as a tone producer?” say Atlanta music lovers today. "We pay only $5 to hear the whole Metropolitan company. Atlanta has paid its money to hear several of these ex-stars of the opera in recent years, and usually it found out the real reason why the ’ex' went before the star.” SHOP TALK In the schedule changes on the Southern railway which became effec tive yesterday and today, Atlanta was given a new train, to be operated daily between Cincinnati and Jacksonville, and to be known as the "Ohio-Florida Special.” Southbound, this train will leave Cincinnati at 11:20 a. m., arrive Atlanta 2:55 a. m., leave Atlanta 3:05 а. m„ arrive Jacksonville 12:45 p. tn. The trains are to handle most mod ern day coaches, Pullman sleeping cars, Southern railway dining cars and will be operated on fast schedule, making but few stops between Cincinnati and Jacksonville. In addition to the Ohio-Florida Spe cial, Southern railway trains Nos. 5 and б, known as "Florida Special," hereto fore operated between Cincinnati and Macon, have been extended and will be operated solidly between Cincinnati and Jacqsonvljle during the winter months. The schedule between Atlanta and Cin cinnati will remain the same The Chicago-Florida Limited, trains Nos. 13 and 14, will continue ojb the sArile schedules,, with the exception that train No. 14 will arrive at Jacksonville at B:4u a. m. instead of 8:30 a. m. The Kansas City-Florida Special, known as trains Nos. 23 and 24, will continue on the same schedule, with the..exception that train No. 24, leaving Atlanta at 9:'3(i p. m., will arrive in Jacksonville at 7:40 a. in. instead of 8 a. m. Both the Chicago-Florida Limited and the Kansas City-Florida Special trains are all year round trains, but it has been found necessary to increase the equipment on them and extend the Pullman lines in order to properly ac commodate the increased travel which they carry. The schedules of Southern railway trains have been arranged so that they connect at Jacksonville with trains for Florida points, Key West and Cuba.

HAWKES CO. --KaiiDk Oepatlmial M Whitehall St. ATLANTA, <A. AT THE THEATERS TWO FEATURE ACTS ON GRANO BILL. MAKE HIT Juliet(?) and the Shillings, sharpshoot ers, are the two acts which make the bull at the Grand worth while. The charming little comedienne, who is not#d on the New York stage as the cleverest impersonator ever seen there, has a num ber of delightful character songs, which are exceedingly well done. The last thing she does is a rapid-fire imitation of a dozen famous actors and actresses, of which the only fault to be found is its brevity. Many people who know the tame of Juliet’s impersonations wished for more of these imitations of famous people rather than the character songs; or may be, in addition tn the character songs-- for the little lady's act was not long enough to satisfy her audience, though she claimed to -tie so worn out that “really, she could not do another thing!’’ (This was the little curtain speech in sist e<i upon by Juliet’s admirers.) The Shillings have the cleverest shoot ing act ever seen here. Their work 1s truly marvelous and, in some instance's, is rather too thrilling for a nervous per son to enjoy very much. Another act out of the ordinary is the ‘’bounding gymnasts,’’ billed as the three Escardos, who give a fine exhibition, full of grace and movement. Kate Elinore and Sam Williams pleased a large part of last night’s audience. La- Tosca and company give a musical act with some effective numbers, ami the bill is completed with a rather long drawn out playlet by Tom Nawn and company, and an offering of songs, dances and near* jokes by Mullen and Coogan. “THE SHEPHERD OF THE HILLS” IS SEEN BY BIG AUDIENCE The Lyric was filled almost to capacity Monday night for the first production of “The Shepherd of the Hills,” and judging by the play and the manner in which it was received, capacity houses will follow at each performance. The plat being laid in the Ozark mountain region of Mis souri. the scenery Is as magnificent and beautiful as the scenic artist can make it, and the characters, composed princi pally of ‘hill billies.' the effect is all that can be desired.

"MERELY MARY ANN” THE EMMA BUNTING OFFERING For the first time since it was played here several years ago at the Grand, “Merely Mary Ann." tr.e comedy drama the title role of which was created by Eleanor Robson, was the offering of Miss Emma Bunting and her supporting play ers. last night, at the Forsyth, and was well received by a splendid audience. The title role, in which Miss Bunting Is seen. Is one which she adapts her self to readily, and a very creditable pre sentation is made. This play gives Miss Bunting and Mr. Whitaker the chance to play opposite each other, and the pretty little story of heart interest gives these two principal characters ample opportunity to display all their skill in acting. The support of Miss Bunting is very good, and "Merely Mary Ann" blds fair to become one of the favorites of the winter stock presentations. It will be produced nightly all week, anij today. Thursday (Thanksgiving day) an.l Saturday at matinees. GIFT GOODS CUFF PINS. In all the range of gift articles, none, for the price, are more acceptable.
