5 «> V «> i< \ ! if ► THE ATLANTA OFOUC.TAN AND NEWS. OECREPIT GABY DESLYS A FAIR SPECTER AT WEDDING OF EX-KING MANUEL PRINCESS AUGUSTINE VICTORIA Anyway, Season at the Atlanta Theater Is Opened—Some Good Shows Coming. Ey TARLETON COLLIER. The Atlanta Theater, being a worthy house of entertainment, not to speak of its being the stronghold of the mighty K. & E., deserved really a more auspicious opening for the nev season than came with the “Mary’s Lamb” production Wednesday night. A certain element of the Atlanta au dience—not the best-paying patrons, either—seemed to enjoy some fea tures of the show. The others—well, the spirit of Richard Carle must have been sorely troubled last night. But then there is no place In the world for invidious comparisons. Anyhow. “Mary’s Lamb” did one thing. The Atlanta Theater was ofTL daily opened by the performance. A fair-sized crowd came to the firs: ehow, regardless of the age of the at traction. and the little promise that the billboards and advance notices held out. Thus the popularity of the Atlanta Theater was proved. And, Judging from the contents of, the pretentious-appearing program, particularly page 11, on which war the forecast of the season’s attrac tions. almost everything has been done to clinch the popularity that successful seasons of the past have engendered. Most promising are the shows that have been contracted, the list including some of the most suc cessful productions, with the bright est stars of the American theatrical heavens. Altogether the reason bids fair to be successful, even with the—well, let us say the “inauspicious” opening. If all the cast of “Mary’s Lamb” had begun to measure up to Den Mc Grath, the p9eudo-successor of Rich ard Carle, the show might have been at least acceptable. But the cast didn’t. Mr. McGrath was a lone fig ure. Crowds at Bijou. Two large audiences witnessed the matinee and night performances of “The Man From the*West” yesterday at the lhjou. Jewell Kelley’s second week is proving a splendid success. Both the company and the play have received the highest praise from patrons of the pop ular little theater, and with the present play the company has established itself firmly with local theatergoers. “The Man From the West” will continue at the Bijou the balance, of the week with the usual matinees at 2:30 and evening performances at 8:30. Next WeeK at Lyric. “The Call of the Heart" is being ad- \ rtisecl as next week’s attraction for the Lyric. Few plays that visited the Carnegie Way theater last season made so many friends or scored such a dis tinct hit as this one. This year the company includes Ann Hamilton, Clar ence Bellair, C B Waters, Wells Play let-. Helen Aubrey, Wallace Franklyn, Billie Shay, Corwin Luskmoor and oth er favorites. “The Call of the Heart” will be played all next week at the Lyric with the usual matinees. Forsyth Bill Pleases. Delightful vaudeville at the Forsyth is about the way to express it. There are so many acts that register hits that some of th.e most exacting critics have had to say that the show is superior to some of the past offerings at the busy th.eater and better than a great many of the hit makers of the summer sea son. But, regular season vaudeville is now on. and that has a lot to do with the conditions. If you have never seen what hap pens every Monday morning at a vaude ville playhouse you may get a pretty good idea of the situation by seeing the Sam Mann feature on this bill. Thera is much comedy and just enough heart interest in making a duo make-up after a separation, to class the act with the best hits of the season. Willard Simms & Co., in “Flanders’ Furnished Flat;’’ .Alexander and Scott, in songs ami the Gas< h sisters in gymnastics, make up a bill that is crowding the theater at all performances. Grand Kinemacolor. Kinemacolor subjects at the Grand from 2:30 to 10:30 to-day and to-mor- re'v will “Keeping Up With Hubby” and “1 : fe in I.upland.” three reels of most interesting natural color pictures. The popularity of the Grand is spring ing along at a rapid rate. There is all the time a stream of peonle passing in and out of the big theater and once in side the amusement seekers find the very best black and white features and the greatest Kinemacolor subjects—the - only place in Atlanta this last word in motion pictures can be seen. Eugene Field Shaft In Chicago Planned CHICAGO^ Rept. 4.—Plans for a memorial for Eusene Field, the poet, started to-day in Chicago, and a cam paign of publicity to cover the United States was being formulated.

Ticket Seller Fined 2.388,500 Estimated For Pummeling Boy Chicago Population Deposed Portuguese Ruler and Hohenzollern Princess Married at Sigmaringen. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. BERLIN, Sept. 4.—Manuel II, de posed King of Portugal, and Princess Augustine Victoria were married to day. Amid all the pomp and grandeur of nuptial rites wad a distinct feeling of uneasiness shown specially in th j careful arrangements made to prevent the appearance at the wedding of un desirable and unbidden guests. The feeling was prompted by feaf of ‘‘another woman.” And that “othel woman” was no less a personage tnan Gaby Deslys, who won Manuel’s heart when he was a real king, helped to 1* ve him thrown into the royal discard and then laughed at him. Gaby was in Europe, although it was not known where. And some there are close to the former Portuguese ruler t who feared she would try to see him at the last moment, and—well make things unpleasant. Wedding at Ancient Castle. The marriage of Manuel and t le daughter of Prince William of Ho henzollern took place at Singmarin- gen, a Hohenzollern castle whicn dates from the beginning of the Christian era. There was a brilliant gathering of princes and princesses. Among them were the Prince of Wales, represent ing King George of England; Prince Eitel Frederick, representing Em peror William of Germany; Prince and Princes® Henry XXXII of Reuss; Princess Friedrich of Hohenzollern; Prince Carol and Princess Elizabeth. Also among the seventy-five guests were the Duke of Montpensier, who declined to be King of Albania; Queen Mother Amelia of Portugal; the Infante and Infanta Carlos of Spain, representing King Alfonso; the Duke and Duchess of Coburg, the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Baden; the Duke of Oporto, of Portu gal, uncle of ex-King Manuel; the Duke and Duchess D’Aosta of Italy, representing King Victor Emmanuel; Prince William of Hohenzollern, fa ther of the bride, and Count August Eulenburg, grand marshal to the reigning Hohenzollern family in Ger many. Eighty royal princes and princess were* among the guests. It was strictly ” a young people’s affair.” The reason for this is apparent. Manuel, while recognized ty courtesy as » king by rulers Europe, Is not viewed as a real sovereign, and, therefore, they sent their chil dren to the wedding, just a grown ups send their children to see a chil dren’s play. Nevertheless the marriage was an imposing one. It way celebrated in the castle chapel, and was in ac cordance with the rites of the Ro man Catholic Church. Cardinal Netto, once archbishop, patriarch of Lisbon, conducted the religious part of trie service. Before that there was tne civil ceremony, at ./hich Count Au gust Eulenburg, Earl Marshal to the Hohenzollern family, officiated. Four Royal Bridesmaids. In the church ceremony the bride wai given away by her father. Four royal princesses acted as bridesmaids. Enormous crowds of townspeople and strangers began gathering around the castle early In the day. Prince William had great tables set along the roadway filled with good things to eat and drink, and all were invited to help themselves. Many touristy who happened to be in the neighborhood drove into the picturesque little vil lage, hoping to get a peep at some ol the distinguished guests, and maybe .it Manuel himself. The wedding gifts cost a fortune. The royalists of Portugal collected 520,000 and sent some handsome plate; the bridegroom presented hit bride with a costly string of pearls; King George and Queen Mary of Eng land sent a silver dinner service, and Queen Mother Alexandria of England sent a gold wine servhe STEPHENS HIGH SCHOOL.
