To Re-enact Scenes of the
Sixties Near This City
“The Littlest Rebel” Have Augusta Companies and Also
Waynesboro Company of National Guard in Picture Which
Will Be Made Tomorrow.
There will very likely be many
Augustans out at the Game Preserve,
near Stevens Creek today and also to
morrow to, watch the local militia en
gage in a sham battle for “The Lit
tlest Rebel” Company, which is mak
ing the moving picture in this city.
Last evening the Hussars went out
their mounts and they with a number
of the local infantrymen are camping
out at the site. The place was selected
after many a foot of ground in this
vicinity had been covered by the di
rector, Mr. Lewis, and the assistant
director, Mr. Jack Brown. It is be
lieved that this spot will come nearer
furnishing the typical southern scen
ery such as existed where the battles
in the sixties were fought than any
other place in the community.

PROMINENT FIGURES IN CONVENTION
» j t ' Bg «fc|g HBjßjfig^j^
Left to Right: Frank H. Barrett, president of Augusta Cotton Ex
change and vice president of National Association of Cotton Exchanges;
W. C. Lawson, president and organizer of National Association of Cotton
Exchanges; E. J. Glenny, president of New Orleans Cotton Exchange, and
E. K. Cone, president of New York Cotton Exchange.
The big cotton conferences that were
held here the first part of last week
have caused Augusta to get more
prominence throughout the United
States than probably any other event
which has happened here in a long
while. Thousands of words were tele
graphed to New York newspapers and
many thousand others were sent to
papers throughout the length and
breadth of the United States over
the wires of the Associated Press.
There is no question but that the Au
gusta conferences were events of the
greatest Importance wherever cotton
is grown, spun, or used, which is prac
tically everywhere, for all over this
great planet cotton goods are being
used 'or clothing.
As an evidence of what an outsider
who attended the convention thinks
of the convention and of Augusta, the
following telegram is printed:
New Orleans, I-a.. May 8. 'l4.

and on tomorrow the parts of the film
that show the battles and skirmishes
of troops, infantry, cavalry and artil
lery, will be enacted. Cannon will
roar, rifles will crack and the woods
will resound with the rattle of mus
ketry. Mines will be blown up, houses
will be burned down and so true to life
is the intention of the photo-play com

the film that it will seem to the spec

on.
Major Levy will be in command of
the four Augusta companies and the
company from Waynesboro, all of
which will take part in the scene. He
is already in camp at the preserve.
