Newspaper Page TextTUESDAY, SEPTEMBER IS, 1906. • ATLANTA GEORGIAN. Your Salary Will go on after death but the other fellow will get it. You won t need it; but what about your family? A mod ern life insurance contract is the only comforting answer to this question. The Northwestern Mutual will sup ply this for you at the lowest net cost, and will give you a policy covering not only present needs, but future contingencies. If you are a healthy man you are entitled to insurance at the minimum of cost. Ask a Northwestern man to show you a specimen contract and an actual record of Annual Net Cost to compare with other companies. It will save you money. “Get Right Before You Get Written. ” R. J. GUINN, Manager, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, 211-213 Candler Building, Atlanta, Ga. >••••••••••••••••••••••••••< THE THEATERS >*•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••< “Coming Thro’ the Rye." The (heater season ha, arrived, came Monday night, when Frank Lalor and Stella Mayhew and Alma Youlin and the rest nans and danced and Joked through "Coming Thro’ the Rye" at the Grand. This was a "real show," a* a man down in the front row re marked when the pony ballet pranced In. And It does look like the real thing. There Is a big chorus that fills the stage and the girls are pretty. There are tall show girls, pretty dancing girls, a dozen or two little girls, who are tho cute for anything, and enough men to carry out the designs of the dramatist. The men have plenty to do to keep up with the plot—for there’s a real plot— and they have lots of fun doing it. Say, Stella Mayhew's growing fat. She told It herself when she pantlngly responded to the seventh recall In her "Camp Meetln’ Time" song, so It’s not Impolite to repeat It. But Stella had them all going when she did her mon ologue and when she sang about those ramp meetln’ chickens she was a little lilt of .May Irwin, a generous slice of .Marie Cahill and all the rest Stella .Mayhew. She Is a sort of second edi tion of Mrs. Malaprop in her present role and she lives up to the part. Then there’s Frank Lalor. He’s Just a Utile different from most of them. From the time the mournful tailor came in with the artist's pants over Ilia arm and hunger In his eye there was something doing. Lalor Is very quiet In his humorous lines and that makes them all the funnier. His habit of speaking liv a low tone is rather hard on the people behind the choice seats, however, and though one of hit favorite effects, he exaggerates it. Hut his song "I Know It Must Be Love, ’ was one. of the hits of the bill—and there were several. But there are others. All of you have seen Alma Youlin In other sea sons and know Just how fetching she can be when she tries hard. And Frank Boone does an alleged Englishman In a way as funny as It Is absurd. John Park, who has the voice of the com pany, Is given several good chances to display It, and William Riley Hntch, from the woolly West, sings a little bit, too. Hut the ensemble numbers are best of all. The girls are pretty when taken all In a bunch and the costuming Is all ..} I that could be desired. The pony ballet makes a hit at every appearance and when Nena Blake Hang; her “Sandman'* song at the clone the little girls were recalled until they could hardly dance another step "Coming Thro* the Rye" will be presented Tuesday afternoon and night.

B. Kaufman, RECENTLY OF GEO. MUSE CO., EISEMAN BROS. AND HIRSCH BROS. Now 308-310 Temple Court Building. what’s more even th» ylddlsh come dlan loves the heroine In the metier drnmmer with which the Eldorado the ater Is ushered Into activity. At the first night of the career of the metamorphosed livery* stable as a popular-priced play house, the “S. R. O.” sign was hung out early In the ac tion. Ah, but the play? Even the moving pictures between acts breathed the ex citing life of the plains at every flutter. The program said It all took place at Fort Butler, Arizona, but any* one could have told that the doln's were In Ari zona, 'cause couldn’t you hear the In juns just on the other side of the stock ade and see the coyboy-hero-Yale- alumnus looking at them sternly and saying, “Yes. I’ll have to make a wild dash for assistance and get a couple o’ hundred cowboy# to save the garrison from massacre?” He also had an Idea that he had to save ’em 'cause Texas West, “Queen of the Cowboys,” was likely to be played up strong ti. the account of the killin’ as "among thoss slain.” Texas is a conventional Western her oine with a buckskin ruffle for a skirt and a revolver belt hung carelessly over her hips. And she doesn’t any more mind yelling at the ghost-danc ing Indians to "go to the devlP than she minds sticking her 32 In a per son's face and tellln’ him to hold on- and thnt has become a habit with her. But she looks just an good In a ball room toilet In the Inst act, where things end up according to Blaney, “in a beautiful homo in Washington, D. (’., where the guilty are brought to justice and the worthy rewarded," as the program says, and everybody who does not go to the gallows goes "back to the West, yes, back to the West.” The vllllan and the vllllanness Lieutenant Curtis , and Mrs. Colonel Scott, have got the m-e-a-n-est dis positions. They are always telling each other to “get the 1100,000” either by murder or any other mild means, but to get.lt even If they have to be rude. Lieutenant Curtis did a bit of ex temporaneous acting In one of his meanest moods. He had just stuck the hero’s knife In Colonel Scott and was trying to find that 1100,000 where he had seen the colonel put It inside his coat. But the roll was lying out op 'the floor at the colonel’s feet and the lieutenant didn’t see It. That didn’t feaze him, though. "Aha!".said he, stepping back from tl\f body and raising his finger In a confidential way, ”1 know where he has put It.” And he disappeared as the hero came In and kicked the roll be hind the scenes. They* are mighty careless with their money "Along the Rio Grande.” D. R. OSBORNE. “A Wife’s Secret.” "A Wife’s Secret" Is the inappro priate name of Spencer A A bom’s “emotional drama” on at the Bijou this week. The name Is Irrelevant because the curtain Is rung down on the all- thlngs - work - together - for - good act, leaving the audience still In doubt as to Just exactly what the secret was. The name should be "The Villain Stung at Every’ Juncture." Falling back to the old saw, "What’s If) a name?” It Is easy to predict a most successful week for the company. From the time the orchestra turns on the soft music until the close, quick action characterizes the play and from beginning to end the house, from pit to peanut, was delighted at the rendition of the exceptional drama. The plot Is intricate. A minister under the thumb of his "pious” sister turns his Inno cent wife from the home because of the villain and the drunkard, who calls her “daughter.” She is taken In by a newsboy and "makes good" “at home with the family.” The old mammy, WALTER BALLARD OP- TICAL CO. Less than one year ago placed on the market the new Hal lard Bifocal, giving reading and walking vision In one frame and looking like one glass. They have proven the most successful of all the advertised invisible bifocals. Ground In a deep torlc curve, giving a large visual fleld for reading; as well as walking. They* are the most perfect and beautiful glass sold. Consult us about bifocals. We have them all. Sales room. 61 Peachtree, Atlanta. Ga. who accompanies the heroine, acts well In the capacity of "bouncer.” In the third act the wife and husband come together at a critical point—the wife has jumped from the tower of the church swinging to a rope. As she swings In they meet and the minister "covers” the villain. Everything ends well. Some of those who have throughout been met by hisses from the gallery are sent to Africa and some to the electric chair. The scene Is laid In Gothnm. The honors were about evenly divi ded. Special mention might be made, however, of little Anny Little, the 8- year-old child who carries a heavy part for one of her years;- Tommy Tomer, who does the newsboy with ability; Winona Bridges, who, in the character part of Aunt Dllscy Lee, pleased the audience—although her dialect was ex ceptionally poor—and to the head-lln- ers, /”A Wife’s Secret” will be nt the Bijou throughout the week, matinees and evening performances. Al Field’s Minstrels Coming. ’A dancing master par excellence” Is the reputation enjoyed by Doc Quig ley, the man with the comedy legs, who has long been noted as the best eccentric dancer on the minstrel stage. Mr. Quigley has been prominent as a dancer ever since he entered the pro fession, and Ms comedy legs have amused thousands of theatergoers throughout the country for a score of years. Many of the most successful dancers of the day acquired their pro ficiency under his tutelage. He origi nates and directs all of the dancing features with the AI G.
