JONGS GAPTURE
AUDIENGE AT
Ll
By TARLETON COLLIER.
i'ull of color and. personality, the
week's bill at the Forsyth theater is
one of more than usval merit. It is
100 wmuch like u zealuos =carch foi
faulis to mention a lack of variety,
because with the able work of the
performers, that condition is burely
noticcable.
An exceptional altraction is lhe
fantustic and resplendent “Dance
Reveries.” in which Holt Anderson, &
voung gentleman of temperamental |
grace, sings into life, one after an
other, six girls of comparative and
superlative degrees of heauty, who
represent in their gorgeous costumes
and dances the spirits of different
ages. It is as bright a bit as vaude
ville has oftered for anonthe.
Fthel Green, a most w.nsome
young woman, won the hearts of her
audicnce at Monday’'s performance
with songs that were cute and funny
together. The gentiemen of the gal
jery found that they had hér smiling
approbation when they whistled a
cshorus to her singing, and conse
quently became madly enthusiastic.
Miss Green radiates personality.
Sam J. Curtis and company of three
bhovs have fun and good music in
their comedy sketch, ‘(GGood-hye,
Boys,” and Prevost and Brown, clos
ing the bill, have a most acceptabie
and unique comedy-acrobatic act,
The Gry Trio, two women and a
man, present a singing novelty of
considerable merit, Williums, Thomp
son and Copeland, in their comedy
sketch, “The Burglar's Union,” have
hesn here before, but won laughs in
spite of former acquaintance. The
Hassais, acrobats, who open the bill,
are good,
Hackett Pleases in
Original ‘Crook’ Play.
A capable interpretation of that
progenitor of our present-day crook
playe, “Alias Jimmy Valentine,” wilh
its wealth of character studies, was
given by Norman Hackett and his
company at the Lyriec Theater Mon
day night, beginning their last week
of stock in Atlanta. The play is tech
nically one of the best of Paul Arm
strong's lurid works, and while l.t_
probably lacks the supreme “punch
that his later plays possess, still it has
an undeniable interest and fascina
tion.
Mr Hackelt piays Jimmy Valentline,
the crook who “goes straight” because
of his love fcr a girl, Miss Diehl is
the girl, and <he succeeds in giving
something of wingomeness and appeal
to # character that is rather negligi
hle and unformed as Paul Armsirong
drew it.
Burton Robbine, as Detective Doylie,
had a sympathetic part that gave him
the gpportunit vto work at his bes!.
Throughout the play the bits between
him and Mr. Hackett were deliciously
tense and thrilling. A particular thrill
was give. the dramatic last act, when
Jimmy Valentine conjures up all his
roguc's art to open a safe in which a
child is locked and suffocating,
W. H. Turprer, Frank Ellis and Ed
win Vail, in incidental character bits,
were excellent, “Alias Jimmy Valen
tine” will be on the Lyric boards ail

the crucial moment. Leading mem
‘hers of the league declarcd Tuesda:
that the clection of Mr. Pace and Mr.

the two candidates had been bitter,

There were 28 votes in Council

Mayvor Woadward’'s happy moment.
With his face wreathed in smlles, hc'
said:
“It !s with the greatest pieasure
that T cast my vote for Mr. Pace!”
The opposition went to pieces with
the defeat of Mr. Anderson, whose
election had been conceded early in
the morning, even by friends of the
Mayor, and failed to put Mr, Heinz's
name before (Council in opposition to
Mr. Ciarke.
Street Funds Available.
The 1914 apportionment sheet, with
changes amounting to $16,400, made
during the recent fight against it by
the four insurgent Aldermen, was
gent to Comptroller Goldsmith Tues
day morning. He will apportion the
various funds at once, so the $200,-
000 appropriated for street improve
ments will be immediately avalilable,
The Aldermanic Board concurred in
the passage of the sheet immediately
after its adoption by the General
Couneil.
No opposition developed to the
sheet when it was offered by Chair
man Humphrey, of the Finance Com
mittee, aside from an objection en
tered by Alderman Maddox, of the
Fifth, to the refusal of the linance
C'ommittee to incorporate $6500 for
an engine house in his ward and $5OO
for heaters for the Davis street school.
This mutter was adjusted by a reso
lution, introduced by the Pifth Ward
delegation, providing for the appro
priation.

The stool of repentance was occu
pied to the limit in Secretary of State
Phil Cook’s office over in the big
Capitol Tuesday, mostly by remorse
ful ones who had failed to pay their
automobile taxes for the current year,
Under the law enacted by the Leg
islature last su@umer, every machine
in the State, old or new, must have a
new number for this vear, and sald
nrumber was required to be purchased
and attached not later than March 1,
Despite repeated warnings, couplel
with the information that those wno
failed to pay. up were subject to a
misdemeanor charge, involving a pos
sible fine of $l,OOO and imprisonment
for twelve months, the woods still are
full-—or, at least, the highways are—
of automobilists who have not paid
said tax.
Police officers began getting after
these recreant ones, good and proper,
Monday and Tuesday, and the office of
the Secrctary of State consequentiy
has bee. packed and jammed since
with parties “begging off."”
The Secretary has been lenient so
far. He says he will clamp the lid
down tight within the present wee\,

points better than due: spots 1 point
lower: sales 8,000 bales. New York,'
however, weakened again from the start,
which caused a coresponding decline
here. The marker is so narrow that a
little selling by scalpers on the New
York tendency causes decline. All that
one hears in explanation of the present
easiness is that New York is against it
Still this depression in futures can hard.
1y be (-arrteq further unless spots give
way.
Very much, if not all, depends on the
action of spot-holders. The cotton ten- |
dered here on March was found of good
serviceable quality, and has been readily
worked off to consumers, Friday's sta
tistics should be distinctly bullish. I2x- |
ports and loss in stock are large. .\!an;s‘
look to polities for an explanation of tae
present casiness, but even in this di-!
rection there seems no good reason for
f deciine in the value of cotton. It {s
likely that in case of intervention in'
Mexico, labor and plantiug conditions in
parts of Texas would he distributed nudl
that lots of low cotton would be usedl
for army needs. 5 :

The constantly bearish trend of the
contract markets and absence of all en
couraging support is at last having a
litle effect on spots, A few smaller lists
of lower cbtton are offering at conces
sions, but the bulk of holding still seems
ungaffected. About 1,600 bales were sold |

i The Chitago Inter Ocean .says: "It
twas the gossip of wheat trade Jlast
night that May and July were to work

and cxport demand for the cash article
continues, causing scattered holders to
get out and take the buying side of
July, now that i(he crop ctare season
geomis to be at hand.
“RBulls were confident of thelr position
in corn last night, and beileved values
are to work still higher, esnecially for
May. although they had no new theories
to advanee. Specialists in cats believe
that the next incentive for an impor
tant movement will be received Satur
day after the close, when the Govern
ment farm reserve estimates will be
given out.”

AD GRAIN NOTES bm bmama
~ B. W. Snow, in his March report, says
that in normal yeers any attempt to re
port covdition of winter wheat at this
daie is useless, but this year the char- |
acter of the winter wheat has been such |
as to afford reasonable opportunity for
crop observation. At this rate the crup|
is generally under a good snow cover
ing, which has afforded protection dur
ing the only trying weather experienced
gince the crop was seeded.
The average condition when the crop
went under the snow is reported at 97.1,
which may be regarded as practicaliy
perfect and is 2 points higher than it
was reported on December 1, 1013, Wis
consin and Jowa are the oniv States
showing any crop m*.ga‘.rnu-m, although
other States ranging between 2 and 101 ‘
in Oregon. 1
