•'Tht Girl and the Bandit/’
if the bandit had .murdered the tenor
In the first act It wouldn’t have been
a .. bad—for then the bandit might have
been hanged—and their absence would
have improved things. But they were
always In evidence.
The "comedy ? opera” is disappoint -
ing in that It has but a breath of
opera and not that much comedy—ex
cept the.fun embodied In one little girl,
ghp is Leoni Pam, the queerest little
freak since Katie Bary, who does more
things with a long skirt than one can
• Imagine. • ‘
There 1* another bright spot—the
baritone. George McFarlane's voice Is
worth hearing, rich, vibrant, beautiful.
He Is given several opportunities to
display It to advantage and these.al
most compensate for the rest of the
performance.
► .Miss Viola Gillette Is a rather fine-
looking woman with a clear mexxo-
soprano, but her .voice is only a trained
.s.>t of muscles—devoid of color or
warmth, li does hot appeal to one.
That "The Girl and the Bandit” is not
in the first blush of youth Is shown
in u topical song In which the hun
on- incidents date back before Do
There are some beautiful song num-
liers. notably, "Summer of Love” and

TO THE PUBLIC:
As you doubtless know that the wholesale busi
ness is carried on one season in advance of the retail, it
will be no news to say that our salesmen have been
on the road for some time selling Spring Goods, which
are now arriving, so that we need every available foot
of space that we have to care for them; therefore, we
have turned over
OUR FALL AND WINTER STOCK to the
EMPIRE CLOTHING COMPANY,
to be closed out at a sacrifice, making an opportunity
for the people of Atlanta to make a nice saving on
strictly up-to-date Clothing. The Empire Clothing Co.
being our neighbors, occupying space in the same build
ing we know them to be reliable and will Personal
ly Guarantee Every Statement Which They Make in
Regard to This Sale. And Be Responsible for the Sat
