Lady Attendant. of the Windy City. Mr. Gore was interviewed yesterday inorplm shortly after the arrive' of the Chicago “special" by a Herald ret reneiiulhe. lm manes u.c Polo tnent that he believes that the South -the greatest agricultural section ot the country —ls capable of making crops double what they are today. Mr. Gore alao mentioned the grent ini; ortance of crop rotation. He save Just as soon as one crop Is gathered sow another, in other words utilize the laud every possible day in the year. Another interesting point Mr, Gore makes and one that will l>e worthy of consideration in certain parts of the South, ia that farmers down here do not plow deep enough. He venture 1 to say that he believes that on some farms a plow lias not been ten inches under the surface of the ground, lie says if the farmers haven’t the proper implements It would pay them to get them In order to thoroughly plow their farmlands and not merely skim over the edges In touching on the business enter prise of a town Mr. Gore said that there is nothing that stands ns strong toward making good the credit of the individual business man like the city from where he comes having a repu tation of being a thrifty, progtessive place. While he had not been here more than a Tew hours he said that ho felt assured Trom what had already been told him of Augusta that this town is now hustling and getting somewhere. The following are some additional expressions of Chicago business men, written after reaching Augusta yester day. Mr. Glen Frank. “We looked forward to Augusta as the week-end rest of our trip. Your citizens are giving just the kind of welcome that delights our hearts. You have put yourselves at our ser vice and have given us just enough liberty to really rest. We have long heard of the easy grace and hospital ity of the fair South; it is all here; but we have been amazed at the new spirit that has entered into your com mercial life. The new South is no myth. On the ashes of the old you are building the new progressive South. The physical frontier is no more and the real frontiers are now economic frontiers where men are bringing new methods of intensive agriculture and business to bear on old conditions. “We are glad to be strangers with in your gates for a week-end. GLENN FRANK. "Northwestern University." Mr. Colby Davies. ‘‘l have always wondered iT the reputation for beauty among Southern women did not rest largely on their ability to so combine dress fabrics a 3 to materially heighten the effect upon observers,” s<tid Colby Davies. “On this trip, therefore. I have made a particular study of the costuming of your feminine population. 1 believe, now. that my theory is based upon fact and is subject of demonstration, for I have never seen women ny where who appeared to such advan tge and who showed such taste in their costuming as in Augusta and other Southern cities.” Mr. Davies represents Carson, Firie, Scott and Company, one of Chi cago’s greatest wholesale and retail j 'y ’ \ ,4 ‘2*%S 7 vMm&lviH Crown and Bridge Work .. $4.00 and $5.00 Fillings .. 50e and SI.OO THE AUGUSTA HERALD.

He is a veteran buyer ot dress material snd is considered one of America’* best Judges of the duality, iitness and taste in dress tub. lies, "One can never get the best effect in dress without good materials.'' con tinued Mr. Davies, “and 1 have noted tlvat in tile South the best and most solid lines ot dress goods make up the fabric stocks in the stores. The Southern women are not extravagant In dress. They have the knack oi combining colors splendidly to get the most satisfactory effect possible. I believe they get this valuable basis of good appearance in this great out of-doors country, where nature tar nishes them with so many pleasing contrasts and combination* of color, shade and arrangement." , Mr. Wilbur R. Mom. "They-told us we were in the South. The sunshine, balmy air and beauti ful vegitutton confirmed the state ment That was when 1 was out un der the shade of the trees In the beautiful boulevard, but us 1 sit In the hotel trying to put lily feelings Into words, the noise oT the trip-hammers on the great new skyscrapers across the street, make It seem so much like the disturbance in my own office that it is hard to believe that I am not in Chicago Here is the rush and drive and up-to-dateness of modern com mercialism. Your climate may he warmer, your hearts certainly seem to be, but your ambitionc are as great or greater than our own and the judgment and brains directing your business enterprises seem to have the necessary coolness to atm true and to fire at the right time and with the proper rapidity. We like tlie recep tion you have given us, we are learn ing much from you ami rest assured we shall be thinking of you. what you are doing ami how you do It, long after you have forgotten that we come to see you. “WII.LAM R.

Those of us who have not hereto fore had the pleasure of visiting Au gusta have been astonished at iho progressiveness as Indicated by the many thriving business houses, the beautiful residences and clKirming drives. We are indeed glad to be with you and are deeply indebted for a most enjoyable visit." Mr. W. A. Lockwood. “Today is one of the days of our Southeastern invasion that I person ally had been looking forward to since the moment our trip had com menced. I feel that so far on our journey in pulling into Augusta this morning we had reached the pivotal point in our trip. Your beautiful city, with all its possibilities opened its doors of welcome to us when your committee extended us their cordial greetings and bid us to entrance, and It is our intention to accept of this hospitality to its full extent. “W.

A musical comedy witli a real plot and real music is “Aclele,” the new musical play which comes to the Grand Wednesday, matinee and even ing, with the endorsement of every critic without exception in New York, San Francisco and Los Angeles, which are the only large cities that have had the opportunity of seeing the French operetta. “Adele” is a rarity in the theatrical world, a musical comedy with a real plot, a logical and interesting story, which develops rationall. act by act. More than that, it has sparkling lines, clever comedy and splendid music. I! has no star, hut the members of the cast stand out with particular prominence, for the absence of a star gives every individual member of this competent company the greatest opportunity to display his or her abil ity to the best effect. _ , “Adele" is from the French. Paid Herve being responsible for the hook i lyrics, and .lean Briquet for the music. It was adapted for the Amer can stage by Adolf I’hillip and Kd ward A Paul ton, the latter having contributed to the American stage the greatest and most successful opera ever produced in this country, Kr minle’’ The piece possesses all the lightness and c leverness which we are accustomed to associate with French entertainments, with none of the doubtful situations or double mean Ings which sometimes mar the dra matic output of that nationality. Al though everything about the perform ance is delightful, the music will no doubt be credited with being Its chief charm. A waltz which hears the same name as that of the plats, ha:, a catchy air, and a most attractive or chestration will tie heard There aie solos, duets, trios, quartettes and en sembles to the number of more than a score and all of them are good Managing director, Joseph . * Bick erton Jr., lias engaged a notable cast to (.resent the play, among whom may he found Oaroyln Thomson, who plays the title role Although only nineteen years old and unknown In this city, she was for two seasons dramatic so prono with the Minneapolis Symphony or Also t promlnent In the cast Is Miss Nannette Flack, another prime don na of the company, last seen here as the star of "Alma,” two seasons ago, leaving a most favorable impression. Prior to that engagement, Miss Flack was prima donna at the New York Hippodrome for three years. Still a third prima donna Is I/Ottle Vincent who tor several seasons was one of the headliners of the Orpheum cir cuit. Among the male members of the company will be found John Park, formerly of the Frank Daniels opera company, who ha* long sinct gained the sobriquet of the John Mason of “leal comedy. Mr. Park sings the baritone role Alfred Happier, the Tyrolean tenor, who was seen in the original cast of Charles Frohman’s production of "The Arcadians”; George O'Donnell, a grand opero bas so of botli European and American reputation, who originated the role of Col.

"Damaged Goods," ai the Grind Tuesday evening, April ", This Is the play which lias created more diseussion since Its first pro duction in America, at the Fulton Theater, New York, on March It. li>l3, than any other drama of modern times. As the New York Times has said, it "Initiates a new epoch of civ dilation," an epoch which seems des lined to establish s new outlook upon llle, and an epoch which will mean the correction oT a great soeial evil. The play Is based upon the Ignor ance and blindness with which men and women of today assume the most sacred obligations of parenthood. The central character in the pta.v Is a young man wiio is physically unfit to marry and who is so udvlsed o( the fact by his physician, but who because Ills word is given and be cause he fears to violate the "cus tom" of engagements, he marries an innocent young girl. The second act takes place eighteen months after the first act, and the young married people are bouyantly happy In their home and jubilant over the birth of a (laughter. But in the midst of thiH happiness there stalks the dread spectre of hereditary disease The sins of the father have been visited upon the child and all the happiness becomes as the ashes of Dead Sea applet upon the Ups of father and mother. The third uct concerns the efforts of the father of the young wife and the family physician to construct a new life for the young people on the crumbled foundation of the old.
