For Christmas

of the day. Guaranteed singers $2.75 each. Special St. An
dreasburg Roller Canaries $5.00 each.

ters. Miss Jessie and Miss Eleanor Wil
son. The party drove to the Waldorf
upon landing. Governor Wilson said he
would leave for Prine.ton at 4 p. tn.,
spending tomorrow in the New Jersey
state house In Trenton conducting New
Jersey state affairs, and returning here
tomorrow evening to attend the dinner
of the Southern society tomorrow'night,
nt which he will be the principal
speaker.
Honors came, thick and fast for
Captain MaeKenzle, of the Bermudian.
In addition to having a presldent-ele«t
of Hie United States for a passenger,
the vessel broke her own time record on
the trip from. Hamilton, making the
Journey in about 39 hours. The ship
arrived in the bay shortly after 7
o’clock. In order to facilitate Mr. Wil
son’s departure, special customs inspec
tors went on board to pass upon the
baggage of the Wilson party.
There was also a big delegation of
reporters on hand to welcome the New
Jersey governor. Mr. Wilson surveyed
the army of correspondents who had
accompanied him tu Bermuda, then
looked nt the oncoming party and
smiled. He said he was ready to an
swer any reasonable questions put to
him and the bombardment Immediately
began.
Regrets Reid's Death.
‘‘Do you come back as a politician,
governor?”
"I will be one as soon as I land,” re
plied the president-elect with a laugh.
“Have you heard about the death of
Whitelaw Reid?”
“Yes, I have heard about that, and I
am very sad over it.”
"Did you have a good time in Ber
muda?”
"A very fine time. We did nothing
but amuse ourselves and answer let
ters. 1 guess 1 answered about 700 in
all. We spent our time riding, driving,
boating, cycling and walking. The
Country is one of the few places In the
world where one can walk without dan
ger of being run over ami killed by an
automobile."
"How about the 7,000 applications for
Jobs you were reported to have re
ceived
"They were placed on file."
Asked as to his immediate plans, Mr.
Wilson said:
I am still governor of New Jersey,
I ami I have lots of work to do. That is
I why I am going to Princeton today. I
I expect to meet Mr. Tumulty, my secre-
Itary. and get in touch with current
events."
"Have you determined anything
about your cabinet?”
I "Nothing at all yet."
Hopes to Meet Bryan.
• "Will William J. Bryan visit you?”
"I hope so. We have made no definite
appointment, but I want to confer with
him.”
"Uns Mr. Bryan been considered for
secretary of state?"
“Ask these newspaper men here,” said
the governor, sweeping his hand toward
the correspondents who had accompa
nied hint to Bermuda. "They have been
with me and they have been asking the
same question day after day. There is
no use to ask such a question.”
During Mr. Wilson's absence from
New York tonight and tomorrow Mrs.
Wilson and her daughters will remain
in this city at the Waldorf-Astoria ho
tel.
There was an animated scene upon
tlte Bermudian, which was dressed up
with United States flags, when she
docked. The pass<*ngers came upon the
deck, gave the president-elect a big
ovation when he appeared. Mr, Wilson
responded by lifting his hat.

llainej’ pictures of the jungh* are a revela

GUS EDWARDS HEADS BILL
AT THE GRAND THIS WEEK
Gijs Edwards’ Song Revue of 1912, with
Edwards himself and a big company Os
juvenile entertainers, heads the bill this
week at the Grand. This act needs no
introduction to Atlanta theatergoers, for
its two weeks’ visit here last season es
tablished it as one of the big treats in
the history of vaudeville In Dixieland
Mr. Edwards is the author of "School
LJayH” and other popular song numbers
that have been played constantly in
homes and in schools. His new Song Re
vue will be an entertainment most litting
tor this particular period of the year, and
there has been perhaps the heavest ad
vance sale that the Grand has recorded
since vaudeville was introduced.
In addition to this star act, William
Raynor*, Viola Keene and company will
present their scenic racing sketch, and
Du<‘alien, an ex-Englishman, will be fea
tures. The five Wilsons, Al and Fanny
Stedman and Snow and company, ven
triloquists, complete the bill
THOMAS E. SHEA WILL BE
FEATURE AT LYRIC ALL WEEK
Thomas E. Shea will bo this week’s at
traction at the Lyric, and this eminent ac
tor will present three of the greatest
plays of the century—“A Man and His
\v ife, which will tie given as the open
ing performance tonight, and again on
I uesday and Thursday matinees and Fri
day night; "The Bells" and "Dr Jekyll
ano Mr. Hyde.”
In the maelstrom of financial crises,
stock gambling, sharp business practices
ami political and official corruption; amid
the untold miseries of poverty and the
wreckage of homes and happiness which
the daily chronicle of the divorce court
blazons brazenly, the pessimist prophet 1-
• ally proclaims the beginning of the end of
all that true manhood and womanhood
holds above the sordid gain of momentary
influence and transient glories. Like a
thunderous philippic flung from the pul
pit by a fearless defender of the faith
comes the gripping story of "A Man and
His Wife.”
BURLESQUE STRONG ACT IS
FEATURE ON BIJOU BILL
The Bijou bill this week includes Block
son and Burns, in a burlesque strong
act, which Promises fifteen minutes of
good fun; liube Strickland, a comedy rube
musician: Weslyn and Nicholls, in their
latest comedy singing act, entitled "Cu
pid's Ladder,” and Dorothy Curtis, sing
ing comedienne. The vaudeville will be
supplemented by motion pictures, which
will open and close each performance
