COURTESy ONSTREET CAR
RROUGHT ITS OWN REWARD
A couple of gentlemen coming to
town Monday morning on a West End
nu- got up at Park and Peters street*
to Rive their seats to two women. Few
gentlemen ever get a seat on a West
End car; none ever keeps a seat. But
that Is more or less a matter In the
realm of the editor, and has nothing
t" do with this story.
When the two gentlemen arose to
give up their seat, they were somewhat
■mm,yeil by the giggling and snicker
ing of the two women for whom they
bod made way.
Ilmbnrrassed by that, they looked to
-"t If their ties were on straight and
their apparel otherwise In order. Be
fore they had finished the self-inspec
tion. they heard on* of the women
murmur to the other:
"Say, de guys are trying ter make a
mash on us."
Whereat the modest young gentle
men sought the refuge of the front
platform.
About five hours later, one of the
gentlemen In question heard the steam
piano of the Pawnee Bill circus, nnd
of course he rushed to the street to
see the parade.
There on the top of one of the wag
ons was a Turkish Woman. She spied
the gentleman Immediately, then *li«
shouted to the snake-charmer on the
equipage behind:
"Say, Mame, look! Dele's de guy
wot got up and guv us a seat."
Then each threw him a kiss.
HE A R TRENDING APPEALS
FOR SUFFERING SALOONS
'I'n I lie casual observer at the coun
cil meeting Monday afternoon It rould
b"t but have appeared that the coun-
1 ll I* composed of a most heartless set
•f Individuals.
The pleas made by the disgruntled
nabon men, whose licenses have been
■ evoked,' were almost enough to melt
n heart of stone. If that heart were not
dictated to by a mind of reason. The
arguments for the granting of fran-
' blues to saloon men—rather ex-saloon
mm—were as varied as they were
bathetic.
"This matt. Just a few months ago.”
"aid one attorney, "Invested every
earthly cent he had In this saloon. If
>u refuse him this license, you take
“way from him the aavtng* of years of
oil, force him Into the bankruptcy
1 ouct, and leave him a pauper."
lime'* another plea:
This saloon Is the only mean* of
vciihood this poor man has. He has
a height little daughter In school. TIiIb
-fel l» the pride of the teacher. Take
from the father this license and
degrade and pauperize an aged man
and woman, blight all the hopes of as
bright and happy a girl und boy as
ever lived."
There were others who plended along
this line:
"If you .cun't grant this poor man a
license, at least give him six months to
close out his business. Let him sell his
goods, protect his reputation, save his
family and himself from financial rulnr
Do something for him. Don't, with Just
one stroke, blast his life.and the lives
of those dependent upon him."
And not a plea of the entire outflt
secured one single Vote from council.
HANDSOME FOLDER

Cliftun Forge, Va., Nov. 6.—At Gosh

Hicks murdered his wife and then

It is said that Hicks was some years

Jealousy is also attributed as a cause.
Both he and his wife were young and
had been married about five years. De

25 Whitehall St.
At th. Grand.
Mf,s Laura Burt is not th* grratest
actress In the country nor Is "Doro
thy Vernon of Haddon Hall" the best
play ever seen at tho Grand, but Miss
Burt and her company afford a very
pleasant evening's entertainment, nev
ertheless.
Charles Major's beautiful story of
wilful, bewitching Dorothy Vernon and
John Manners' love affair Is too well
known to need eynppsls. The drama
tists have made most of the possibili
ties of the book. The play Is hand
somely staged and entertainingly pre
seated. The audience at the Grand
Monday night waa email but apprecla
live. In reeponee to repeated curtain
calls at the close of the second act,
Miss Burt came forward and made
most gracious acknowledgment In
pretty little speech.
Miss Burt’s Dorothy Vernon Is
disappointment In the opening scene,
but she rises to her difficult role there
after. Mr. Stanford's John Manner* Is
creditable. The best bit of work In the
cast Is that of Alfred E. James os Per.
kins, jester to. the curl of Rutland.
This young man has a fine future be
fore him If he has a mind to make
the beat use of his talents.
Altogether theatergoers' will And
"Dorothy, Vernon" well worth while.
A matinee Tuesday and the evening
performance will clott the engagement
at the.Gpand. I J. P. R.
At th* El Dorado.
The formal opening of the El Doraijo
Monday night by the Baldwln-Melvllle
Htock Company with, "Iiney Ridge"
ns Hie attraction was a thorough euc-
cess. A well-balanced company gave
npuble rendition of- the simple
story of. life in the Tennessee moun
tains. Every character i from that of
Jack Rpse, the hero, artistically in
terpreted by Richard Rubier, to that
of Mr*. Lane, the' mountaineer's wife,
was in capable hands. Miss Myrtle
Vane, us Cindy Lane, the outcast of
Plney Ridge, was particularly good.
If the standard set Monday night Is
followed by the company In Its stay
here Atlanta theatergoers are sure to
see some well-staged plays this winter
at popular prices.
Annie Runall ae "Puck.'
The most gorgeous and effective
stage presentation ot Shakespeare's “A
MIdsummer Night’s Dream," which has
ever been revealed In New York, comes
direct from Its triumphs at the new
Astor theater to the Grand Wednesday
and Thursday nights and Thursday
matinee, when the distinguished ac
tress, Annie Russell, will appear In
what Is probably the most delightful
Itgure In Shakespeare’s writings,
"Puck," or Robin Ooodfellow, the In
carnate spirit of mischief.
Miss Bussell Is the gentlest uthl
sweetest of Immortals and the very
embodiment of grace and relined hu
mor In the Impersonation of the elfin
fay. Aside from the star the principal
honors of the acting fall on John Bun
ny. whose Impersonation of Nick Bot
tom. the weaver. Is vastly amusing. A
feature of the performance that Is in
keeping with the text and spirit of
the play Is the Impersonation of Oberon
ad -
been the custom. The musical selec
tions from Mendelssohn, Dvorak and
TchalkowokV constitute a fitting ac
companiment.
Messrs. Wagenbal* & Kemper have
In this Instance made a strong appeal
to cultured folk who love the theater,
for their production of the comedy Is
characterized by a broadness and a
grandeur which was the talk of New
York. During this,.Miss Russell's first,
Southern tour, she Is supported by an
organization of one hundred and twen
ty-seven people.
Epigrams From "Th* Squaw Man.'
It Is sold (hat to he a good play every
play must be capable of being reduced
to line particles and the resulting prod
uct picked up haphazard'and fitted to
gether With some hope of bringing
something rational out of the wreck
age. Occasionally there fz a line here
and there which will stick out In bold
relief above the level mass of dialogue,
and make Itself felt as well as heard,
but not many dramatic products will
furnish as much good material as "The
Squaw Alan," which comet to the
Grand on Friday and Saturday, with a
Saturday matinee.
Here are a few or the culllnge from
this "book of the West:”
"We women must bear our own sin*
alone; you men make u« bear yours,
loo."
‘I suppose you know that the boys
arc getting nervous about their money,
don't ye? Tomorrow's pay (lay."
'Well, then, day after tomorrow’s the
time to get nervous."
"You see we have our social dis
tinctions out here even, Mr. Petrie."
"How absurd.”
"Social distinctions usually are. Air.

“It seems lo me Nat-u-ritch gets

"But she's an Indian—she’s got used
