By Tad Posthumous Work of Massenet Scores Pronounced Success at Its Dress Rehearsal. By CHARLES HENRY MELTZER. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. PARIS, April 25.—The dress re hearsal of "Panurge," the first of three of the posthumous works of Massenet which may be heard here, took place at the delete Lyrllque ■with pronounced auccasa. This charming and effective little opera is made In the very spirit of Rabelais, •who inspired both the composer and Ills librettist*. Although from end to end the op posite of serious. It Is marked by Massenet's art and Ingenuity. Light to a fault at times, often Indeed closer In style to operetta than real opera, it is melodious, piquant, gay end full of grace. Among the numbers In the score •which Were most liked, and rightly liked, to-day I may mention the in troduction of the first act, an ex quisite romance for Pannrge, of the same family as the "Legend of the Sagebrush,” in "Le Jongleur;” an other song for Panurge in the second i act; all the music of Prere Jean and j Pantagruel; the chorusea of nuns and j monks, and an Intermezzo for violin, j solo and onrhestra, which may prove as popular as the "Thais” medita tion, "Paijorge" was admirably lirter- jreted by Mareoux In the title role, >v Mart1nell! as Pantagurue and by a tenor named Gllly as Frere Jean. The scene in which Colombe, the hero's wife, confesses her pretended Infidelities to Panurge, who is dis guised as a monk, made a great hit. Limy Arbell was the wife Colombe. VOW)?

ALBANY, April 26—The Wagner Factory Invastigating Committee has withdrawn from department stores in New York and several other large cities its quota of college girls who have been observing the manner In which shop girls live with a view | to determining whether low wages Is j responsible for the moral downfall of many. . The experiment has not produced very satisfactory results no far. So far as can be learned here the so-called "highbrow” college grad uates who seem to have failed be- < ause they aren’t "good mixers" are to be supplanted by women of less education hut more practical turn of mind who will be better equipped to meet the shop girls on equal terms and more easily win their confidence.

PEACHTREE 107 ftOTirr Write for free samples •’V ■ lut and self-measuring Funny things happen in the hear ing of the theater box office man In the course of a day’s labor. And some are as pttiful as they are humorous. The other night an elderly woman purchased a ticket at one of our theaters. She went In and sat down Ih the foyer. An hour later, after the perform ance had begun, she came out and approaching the ticket window, asked; "Has the show started yet?" ’ "Sure. It’s been going on about half an hour,” said the box office man. "Well, that’s queer; I’ve been sit ting in there alone for quite a while and I’ve seen no one act yet.” She had mistaken the largs foyer for the theater. The following story 1s recalled by a local theatrical man; "Othello" was billed to play In an Eastern city tn 1906, when consider able of a fuss vras on over the piracy of plays. "You say you are the manager of tills Othello company,” said the house owner. "Yes, 1 have authority to transact all business for the firm,” replied the showman. "Well, I'll let you play my house If you can give me a written per mission from the author." Hill Shakespeare having been dead many, many years, the show official was unable to comply with the re quest He finally told the owner that he had not heard from Bill In some time, and after much argument suc ceeded In convincing him that he was not violating the copyright law. and the play went on. Only tlie other day one of our man agers received the following letter: "Manager: "Please send me two seats. "Very truly yours, "Enclosed find *10; return change.” The writer did not state what | show he wanted the seats for, the I date or the location desired. Emphasizing the fact that a good ! box office man must be a mind read- i er and have an unlimited Imagina tion. THE PLAY THIS WEEK.

April 25.—"The Bather” in the Metropolitan museum of art has had a real bath, and looked quite fresh and nice to-day. There were no prudes present, at least in the gallery, where this figure of a nude woman, by the sculptor Edmond Stewardson, is exhibited. Instead of beating a retreat the spec tators gathered closer. A11 unconcerned, an employee work ed away on the white marble statue with a sponge from a stepladder. Even a statue can get dusty now and then, he explained, and therefore, the need of* the polishing. There was much laughter, however when he gave the nymph’s ears a good rub- ping and sponged her face. It required half an hour for “The Bather" to get her bath. I CD Baseball Summaries.

LONDON, April 25.—Fentherless hats provided one of tlie features of the exhibition and conference in Lon don for the purpoes of bringing to gether societies and individuals inter ested in tlie sui nression of cruelty to animalB. The millinery exhibits are Intended to prove that women’s hat - may be both beautiful and fashionable with out the aid of feathers and plumes, the plucking of which, it is said, causes unnecessary pain to the birds. A hat with a large plume made of grasses, stiffened and colored, won general approval from fashion ex perts. Ribbons played a great part in the trimmings. Mnie. Sarah Grand, first conference, dealt with the question of "murder ous millinery." Man, she said, was at the bottom of the whole mischief. Selina’s Samples By MINNA IRVING. S ELINA took a train to town To buy herself a summer gown She trudged along from store to store, Until her feet were hot and sore, Collecting samples. Her hands were full of silken snips, Her pockets bulged with satin strips; Her bag with lawn and cloth was crammed, Yet In the crowd she madly jammed, Collecting samples, P INK, blue, and purple, brown and green And all the varied shades be tween, Red, yellow, white, and black and gray. And still she traveled on her way. Collecting samples. Designs of rings, and checks and dots, Stripes, wreaths and silver dollar spots. Or plain with borders on the side; But on she sped unsatisfied, Collecting samples. A “Bill, the Kid,” Is Next.

A stranger knocked her hat awry. She missed her watch when he was gone. But still Selina kept right on Collecting samples. She journeyed home, and sat for days In contemplation of the maize. Reseda, royal, Nile and plum. While clerks were trembling lest she come Collecting samples. T last she cried: “There’s noth ing here That's just the nroner thing. 1 fear. 1 really think l must have missed A place or two upon mv list Collecting samples. I'll get a hat and make my blue Foulard another season do.” It always ends that way. you knots. When women like Selina go Collecting samples. "Twice Giblets” New Order at Quick Lunch. In one of those lunch rooms where you get a platter and order your meal, acting as your own waiter, the manager is a woman. She sits Just inside the kitchen at a window from which she relays the orders bawled to her by two young men who stand at the counter where they wait upon customers. A popular dish on the bill of fare yesterday was chicken giblets and it was directly responsible for a small spat and the promulgation of a new rule in the restaurant In question. At noon there were four or five persons at the counter clamoring to be waited upon. The first order re layed to the kitchen was “chicken giblets.” The manager .(woman, you understand) relayed it thus: "Chick en giblets, one.” And the chef, who ever it was, sung out, "Chicken gib lets, one," just like an Alpine echo. Two men who came in together both wanted giblets, eo the young man at the counter sung out "chick en giblets,, two.” The manager and chef both thought he meant "chick en giblets, too,” and only one order was prepared. When it came out, of course, there was a protest from tlie customers, backed up by the man behind the counter. "We wanted two orders," they said. “That’s what I ordered,” said the counter man. And quite a wrangle ensued. The upshot of the matter was that Miss Manager for Mrs. as it happens to be) issued an edtet that in future when an order of chicken giblets for two is wanted it shall be given thus- ly: “Twice giblets.” That’s plain engugh. Country Folks Blockade Sidewalk on Peachtree. Curiosity on the part of a bunch of country folks who were in town yesterday caused a young- blockade on Peachtree at Marietta and nearly resulted in action on the part of the traffic officer at Five Points. These folks had come to town to see the sights. That was evident, and they did not purpose missing anything that wus free. One of them—a girl—spied a queer sign in a window of a shop and she must needs see it at closer range. She informed her escort of her de sire and he was perfectly willing to gratify her curiosity—and his own. The word was also communicated to others of the party and in a few mo ments hurrying pedestrians on the street found themselves up against a bulwark of gaping rusticity. The stream of humanity whi?h flows along this main artery of the city eddied out into the street and there was a great rubbering of necks to see what was the cause for th<s unusual crowding at the point. “Aw. shucks,” said the girl who was the cause of the blockade, aPer she had read the sign, “hit ain't nothin’ but er advertisement an’ I didn’t believe a word of hit.” “Me nuther,” echoed her swain, and the whole party backed out into the street and started off on another tack.
