TWO TWIRLS OF TERROR IS FEATURE OF-CIRCUS The “Two Twirl* of Terror” la the rather startling title of a new bicycle sensation that has been Introduced to the American public by the Barnum & Halley circus this season. The “Two Twirls of Terror” is an imported act, and had Its premiere at th<$ Folles Hergere, In Paris, last winter. Al though a development of the famous Voln Meycle .act, which was first made -op a THE TRIPOD PAINT CO., 37 N. Pryor 8t„ and a ARTIST Will brina you a sample-card and Oiv* you an estimate on Tinting your wells with DECO-MURA, the L oenltary Wall Finish. known to the American public by the Barnum & Bailey management, It has several original features quite peculiar to Itself, and the statement that It Is the most dangerous performance ever attempted by cyclists can readily be credited. The Boiler Brothers, who present the new sensation, arc expert wheelmen, and before presenting the dual climax of their remarkable act, they Introduce a number of novel and unusual exploits on their machines. John, one of the brothers, then ascends to the top of an incline, and, mounting his wheel, waits, amid almost breathless silence, for the signal to start upon his perilous Jour ney down the Incline and Into space. Presently the signal is given, the wheel descends the runway with frightful velocity, darts Into the air, turns a somersault, and, landing on a second runway, runs swiftly to the ground. Be fore the applause that greets this start ling exploit has subsided, the daring rider has ascended q high pedestal, placed over one end of a teeter-board, nnd again mounted his wheel. Louis, his brother, also mounted, takes a posi tion at the other end of the see-saw, thus depressing it. Suddenly, wheel and rider drop from the lofty perch and strike the up-tilted teeter-board with terrific force. The tremendous Impact throws the second bicyclist Into the air. He also accomplishes a dis tinct somersault, nnd, dropping to a cushion on the track, still mounted, wheels away unharmed. These per formances, It is said, are so sensational and, at the same time, are performed with such lightning rapidity, that the audience Is almost bewildered. One New York newspaper writer, in de scribing the effect of the act upon the crowd, said: “It is simply paralysing!” And this seems to be the consensus of press opinion. The “Two Twirls of Terror” Is not tho only sensational novelty that the Barnum A Bailey circus announces for presentation when the big show exhib its here Friday and Saturday, October 19 and 20. VISITS SCENE OF TOE FLOOD Second Storm From Gulf Failed to Reach the Coast.- Special to The Georg Ian Mobile, Ala,, Oct. 3.—Governor Jelks arrived here last night to visit the stricken coast. Three companies of troops have arrived to do guard duty on the coast. Sheriff Powers, who has returned from the west coast of Mobile bay, says conditions are much improved. Negroes are refusing to work, though railroads and others are begging them. The sheriff insists that the women and children be taken from the devas tated points and brought to Mobile, where they can receive proper care, else many deaths will result from pri vations. Conditions down the bay and along the coast are rapidly improving, and many sections are reporting now that their first estimates of damage were too large. In this city, for example, two days after the storm, prominent Insurance men were positive In their assertions that the loss would amount ’to between 34,000,000 and 15,000,000; the same men now place the figure at $1,000,000. Proportional reductions are made In reports from other places vis ited by the gale. The total loss of lives has not been more than 100, but it is not possible even yet to give a correct aggregate. PITCHED BATTLE FOUGHT WITH ITALIAN LABORERS Special to Tho Oeorglmi Ashevlllo, N. C., Oct. 3.—News has been received In the city of a serious light which took place at a lumber camp near Canton, this state, between eight Italian laborers and as many residents of Canton. Although no one received fatal wounds, all participants are badly bruised and all have been arrested, charged with assaulting In numbers, meaning a free-for-all tight. The real trouble, It seems, started between an Italian named Castellane and a man named Murphy. Walter Cregg, a friend 6f Murphy, struck the Italian while he was engaged In the fight with Murphy, and later friends of Castellane joined In. One by one the Hat of lighters was added to until near ly 20 men were engaged in what seem ed would result disastrously. The of- fleers were notified and they Anally placed all the men tinder arrest and quelled the disturbance. The men were taken before a magis trate at Canton, where Castellane and Murphy were fined, and the others re leased. MUST NOT PUT TORPEDOES IN MUCH USED CHANNELS REAR ADMIRAL 8APP INSPECT8 NAVY YARD. Special to The Georgian Pensacola, Fla,, Oct. 3.—Rear Ad miral Sapp, who has been at the navy yard for the last two days inspecting the wreck of the place, left there last night and came to the city. He found the yard in a very bad condition, the loss being about $1,000,000. The mag nificent oaks which line the walks In the yard have been destroyed, being torn up by the roots. With the exception of the report of the loss of two entire families there are no new developments in the situa tion here. Charles Mann, who had his fish busi ness at Caswell, Ala., swept away, reached the citj' and reported that Shell Banks, Ala., a town on Perdido bay, In Baldwin county, had been swept .from the earth and that he learned before leaving that two fami lies had been lost. He also reported that many of the small fishing hamlets along the shores of Perdido bay had been swept away, but he had heard nothing of any casualties further than those reported. United States Senator Mallory today Inspected Santa Rosa Island, across the bay from the city, and found re ports true that two channels had been cut through the Island from the gulf to the bay. Both are about three feet In depth and nearly a quarter of a mile wide. They are separated by a stretch of two miles, and both arc between the sites of the life saving station and quarantine station. The government will have to build Jetties there to pro vent further washing. Berlin, Oct. 3.—The dominant note of the International Law Association conference today was the Idea that the association should restrain as much as possible the right of belligerents while extending and protecting the rights of neutrals. The conference was unanimous against the use of floating or automat ic mines, save within the waters of belligerents. Even there. It was held they should not be placed in narrow waters, for example in the English channel, which of necessity was used as a thoroughfare by all nations. It was also decided that letters be ing conveyed by regular mall steam ships should be free from molestation. Steamships commissioned for war like purposes should not be allowed to hoist a mercantile sign or change their character at sea. Vessels carrying contraband of war should not bo destroyed, but conveyed to port for legal Investigation. The conference will not pass any resolutions, but will /tubmlt its pro ceedings to The Hague conference. {•MHMMHIH THE THEATERS MAUD. WALTER BALLARD OP TICAL CO. Less than one year ago placed on the market the new Ballard Bifocal, giving reading and walking vision In one frame und 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 field for reading as well as walking. They are the most perfect and "Forty-Five Minutes From Brosdwsy. When George Cohan Injected a vll lain, a real adventuress, a safe robbery and other essential elements of melo drama Into a musical play his advis ers told him, in the language of Kid Burns, that he was "checked through for the nut house," and Ids play wouldn’t last as long as the first part of the name. Perhaps nobody else could have done It—certainly nobody else has done it—but George Cohan wrote all these In his play and added a real moving train for lagnlappe. And "Forty-five Minutes From Broadway” is running yet, and the audience at the Grand Tuesday night gave no indica tion that a musical melodrama Is a loser. Mr. Cohan Is wise. Say what you will, Jeer at the villain and vlllalness of the ten-twenty-thirty men and wo men with red blood like-that touch of heart interest, that glimpse Into the workings of evil against good that makes melodrama. They may not want their melodrama pounded into them with muttered curses In every line and a paper snowstorm every time the he roine handled is as acceptable to the boxholders uptown ns to the gallery gods of the little house around tho corner. And that Is why the love story of Mary Jenkins and Kid Burns and the life story, merely touched upon In tho dialogue, of Mrs. Dean and Daniel Cronin made an audience of today sit through three acts with no evidence of ennui—with Interest In every face. And the company Is fully up to the mark. Kid Burns, ex-tout, ex-all round-sport, Is portrayed by Scott Welch In a way that vividly recalls a day In the betting ring. He Is not the swaggering, checksulted tout of the usual comedy, but a Helf respecting, good nntured fellow who Is trying to do the right thing all the time. His language—well one of his own expres sions Is: “Dls t’lng has more reverse English In It dan a billiard game.” His voice Is big and round and when he sings “Forty-five Minutes From Broadway" It fills the house from pit to gallery and he seems to enjoy Jt. He was given so many recalls on that song that he Just couldn’t add another verse. And Corlnne. One wouldn’t recog- ilze the old Corlnne of the superb igure set off by spangled tights, the Corlnne of the burlesque. As Mary Jane Jenkins she wears a neat black dress and a funny little black hat and looks the model of propriety'—as everybody In New Rochelle seemed to think she was. She has some of Coh an’s best lines and her laugh ripples through her audience. Her songs. “Mary Is a Grand Old Name” nnd "So Long, Mary,” were sung sweetly and with a way that would render criticism from a musical standpoint out of place. Corlnne has found herself In roles like this—she seemed far more at home ns Mary Ann than she over did J they cannot be enumerated. But Charles Arthur as Tom Bennett and Edwin Walter as James Blake, are thoroughly artistic in their works, while Claire Grenville, as the mother-in-law elect, gave a splendid interpretation of a modern and remodeled Katherine. It is easy to see that the play was written primarily for a New York au dience. But the way In which they poke fun at New Rochelle, a little town near the metropolis, and the tributes to the glowing splendors of Broadway by electric light brought cheers from several listeners who had never been further than Marietta since Atlanta was Marthasvllle, for It Is the correct thing, you know, to speak reverently of New York and Martin's and the “Great White Way,” whether you have ever been there or not. Then people will think you’ve been about some. “Forty-five Minutes From Broadway' is handsomely stared, the eight girls of the chorus are good to look at, and, more than that, they can sing. The musical numbers are ns bright and sparkling as all George Cohan’s music Is—the production leaves little room for complaint. The engagement Is for Wednesday afternoon and night. DUDLEY GLASS. "Playing the Game." The Jeffersons have been famed for the excellence of the supporting cast in all of the productions, but It Is claimed that tho company In support of Joseph and William W. Jefferson this season will excel by far even the ele gant cast of last year. The new mod ern comedy, “Playing the Game," Is the combined effort of Cleveland Mof fett and Hartley Davis, two names known for literary merit In- the past. Two scenes new to the stage, Inasmuch as they are exact reproductions of rooms extant now, one of which IS tho very handsome reading and writing room of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel, and the famous artist’s studio when seen, It Is said, will be easily recognized.

C., Oct. 3.—On South ern railway train No. 35 last night a well-dressed man, accompanied by two women, nnd carrying an Infant, ap proached a passenger and asked him to hold the child while he went to the rear of tho car. The train pulled Into High Point a few moments afterwards and tho man and women alighted. When the owner of the child did not return it was realized that the object of the three was to get rid of the In fant. A purse was raised and the child was asked for by a couple on the way to Alabama. CROWDS SAY FAREWELL TO ARCHBI8HOP HARTY.
