RAINEY’S AFRICAN HUNT WILL BE SHOWN AT THE ATLANTA Reginald Carrington, whose graphic and interesting description of the Paul J. Rainey African hunt motion pictures has proven so delightful to audiences wherever these startling pictures have been shown, is a character actor who made a great success in "The Lion and the Mouse." Last summer he was en gaged by William Harris. Jr., to lecture at tlie Lyceum theater In New York, where the jungle pictures were being shown. So great was Mir Carringtons success In this new field of endeavor that he asked to b< allowed to continue witli the pictures rather than to "sign Up" with it dramatic company, as has been his annual custom. The pictu'i - will be at the Atlanta Ute week of D - cembn IS, THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. DONALD BRIAN COMING TO ATLANTA THIS MONTH When Donald Brian is seen here as a star, under the direction of Charles Frohman, at the Atlanta, beginning December 23, he will be supported by the original company seen with hint during the record runs of this success- ■ lifei •*■ ful and delightful pjcce in New York. Chicago, Boston and Philadelphia last season. The list of supporting princi pals includes Will West, Ethel Cadman, Harry Delf, Florence Morrison, John Mogan. Grace Walsh, Cyril Blddulph, I Cissy Sowell, Victor Leßoy and oth ' ers, besides the now famous array of sirens and the large chorus. BIG FEATURE BILL IS BOOKED AT THE GRAND Edgar Ateheson-Ely and company will be one of the headline features at the Grand for next week, and Winona Winter, the famous Southern musical comedy star, will be an extra attrac tion. These two exceptionally strong and magnetic acts will head a bill that has been selected with the greatest care, and-that will unquestionably de velop into one of the most interesting events of the season at the Grand. Edgar Atcheson-Ely is one of the cleverest comedians that has advanced in the theatrical profession. He is wonderfully versatile and in comedy plays and in periods of musical come dy has attracted so tqueh attention that his services were enlisted for vaudeville. In vaudeville lie has at once taken a position with the head liners and with the aid of a clever company of four other people will be set n in a thrilling funny oddity called "Billy's Tombstones." It requires the talent and the ability of an artist of the Ateheson-Ely type to properly portray the lead in this sketch. Winona Winter Is a daughter of the South. She Is the daughter of Banks Winter, the famous Southern tenor, author of “White Wings," and her fa ther drilled ami trained her into his profession. As a little girl she was elevei in the varieties and a she ad piii'til became Identified w ith some of tin leading musical comedy pruduc- tions and was soon a recognized star. Miss Winter in vaudeville occupies a distinctive position. She has won ad miration and for a young person has a more wonderful record for success than any other artist. She will be heard in new song hits, will offer a delightfully original monologue and there will be other specialties that will register a hit for her. The famous Don Fulano. the wonder horse, will be another feature of this exceptional bill. The horse was raised in Montana and trained by an expert. He is handled by a man who has been with him since he was a colt, and some of his tricks are too wonderful to believe. They have to be seen. Don Fulano reads, writes, spells words, is fine at arithmetic, can light a match I and is the only horse in the world that actually laughs. It all depends upon the reception by an audience as to what Don Fula'no will do. Recently at one of the leading theaters in New York he kept entertaining for 40 minutes and i even then the people wanted more. Acrobats will always be found on a i vaudeville bill. There is a big percent- I age of every audience that cares a lot for the cleverness usualy displayed by i masters in gymnastics, and in the Van- I Osstnan Troupe the audiences are going to be treated to an unusualy clever en tertainment. Martinetti and Maximillion, who are known as the comedy tricksters; Lydell and Butterworth, in an original black face idea, and Ronalr and Ward, a comedy novelty, will also appear. For the week commencing with De cember 16 the grand headline attrac tion will be Gus Eduards’ new Song Revue, with Edwards and 30 clever and charming young people. The engagement of Edwards at Atlanta last season was one of the events of the season, and it is to be anticipated that all week. "MADAME SHERRY” IS BILL NEXT WEEK AT LYRIC Not very much of the story of "Ma dame Sherry" is revealed in the ad vance announcements. Mainly the thread of musical and other Incidents of this big musical success concern a young unmarried New York man about town, spending money sent him by an uncle, who believes his nephew to lie married and the father of two chil dren. The uncle unexpectedly pays a visit to the studio of the nephew, who, to support his story of domesticity, is forced to gather unto himself a family. He presses his very unpatrlclan house-! keeper into service to pass as his wife, | and gets his own sweetheart to pose asi one of his children, and an adult guest in his home to answer as his son. It is from the comic embarrassments grow ing out of this first situation that the run of the piece begins. Os course, at tendant misadventures consequent up on the first deception follow one an other throughout the play. The main love Interest is introduced at the very outset, with the arrival of the uncle, who brings with him a relative, Yvonne Sherry, a young maid just out of a convent, it develops that the sweet heart of the young man about town turns tickle and falls in love with the gu< st. passing as her brother, a plight that opens tile way for the mlsclilev- ously scheming nephew and the visit ing convent girl to become sweethearts, which they do in what is declared to be one of the oddest ways in the world.
