Wednesday. “The Girl in the Case” (very brief ly)—lt’s' altogether a strange case. The girl gets out of it in time to save the man she loves and convict the men who tried to involve him in it. Thursday. "Destiny’s Night”—An interesting feature, half comedy and the other half touching to the heart, will be the headliner for the fourth day of a most successful week, so far at the Mod jeska Theater. Friday. “The Million Dollar Mystery"— No. 21 of the Installment will be shown. It’s the usual fascinating variety shown in previous episodes. Saturday. “The Hateful God” Jonathan Storm’s idea of God is that of a king of wrath. He constantly holds this idea before his two motherless daugh ters, not allowing them the least pleasures. Grace, the oldest daughter, disobeys him, taking her younger sis ter to a circus. The tent collapses and the child is hurt. Storm tells the girl that God has punished her for disobedience. She rises in wrath and declares that she hates God and that she will not live with her father any more. She goes to the city and is helped by an institutional church. A wealthy man is connected with the church and is interested in her. He appeals to her father. However, It is not until the younger daughter, burst ing into tears and asking the man to take her away with him, that the father decides to go to the city after his daughter. Turning over the pages of the Bible his eyes come to the words God is love. GEORGE PRIMROSE AND GEORGE WILSON COMING. George Primrose and George Wilson are coming to the Grand Saturday, Nov. 28th, for a matinee and evening engage ment. These two merry minstrel men have made all America laugh, and are still as delightfully clever as of, yore. None have yet equalled for grace the dancing of George Primrose. And who Is it that has been Just so funny as “"Waltz Me Again” George Wilson. Be low is given a criticism from the Nor folk Ledger-Dispatch, of the play, as follows; Shorn of all frills and fancies, and pre serving accurately all the old traditons of minstrelsy, the Primrose and Wilson Minstrels made their appearance last night at the New Wells and pleased a crowd of minstrel enthusiasts. Headed by those two veteran stars, George Primrose and George Wilson, this clever company of black-face artists provided three hours of entertainment of that character that has maintained minstrel sy at the forefront of amusement en terprises. Minstrelsy of the old-fashioned kind, presented in the “old timey” manner and offered by the two oldest members of this branch of the theatrical profession, surely pleased those present last night, judging from the continued and up roarious applause that was bestowed. There was hardly a dull moment during the evening and if one little feature did not please, it did not matter, as another was coming In Its plact In rapld-flr» fashion. Despite the years which hang lightly over him, George Primrose Is still the most graceful dancer In minstrelsy, and his soft shoe work last night was exe cuted with that same finish and pre cision which has marked his work for so many years. The “man with the velvet feet” was given a great reception la*t night which was only rivaled by the re ception tendered his veteran partner. George Wilson. Following Primrose’s dancing, George Wilson's monologue kept the house in a continuous uproar. He has changed his jokes and jests, hut not his styie, which is the same as it wag twenty or even thirty-five years ago. "Waltz-Me Again’’ occupies a niche In the hearts of amuse ments lovers that will not be filled by another. Both the veteran stars work ed hard last night, and their efforts were cordially received. “Over the Billowy Sea,” as rendered by graceful Harry Kelvcra, was the best of the musical numbers, and It was a gem. “Trombone Man,” by Eddie Coe; “When You Waltz With Me," by George Primrose; “I've Found Some One to Chase the Blues Away," by Jack Lam bert, and “Father Put the Paper on the Wall,” by Johnny Bliss, were other pop ular numbers. The Yap Quartette, Breve and Coe musical team, the George Primrose troupe of dancers and an old-fashioned "after-piece" rounded out a program that was smooth, pleasing and diverting Over Coats, all wool, nicely made, $7.50, SIO.OO, $15.00, $20.00.

Ball Players Winter League New York.— There’s a good laugh concealed in the charge that Clarke Griffith, boss of the Senators, tipped the Braves as to the weakness of the Athletics, “and, as a result of Grif fith’s traitorous actions, the Braves were able to beat the American league champions.” A slight perusal of the records show that Gris is Just as well qualified to tip anyone on how to beat the Ath letics as Jim Jeffries is qualified to pass out tips on how to beat Jack Johnson. Gris’s team tackled the Athletics 20 times in 1913 and Grif's team was beaten 13 times. In 1913 the Athletics took 14 out of 22 games from the Sen ators and In 1914 they won 13 out of 22. In 66 whirls at the Mackian machine over a three-year stretch Griffith has been turned back 40 times. There’s Grifs alibi. Those who have seen George Stall ings on the stage are loud in their praise of Stallings as a baseball man ager. “What will happen if W. and J. asks Yale for a game In 1915?" queries R. L. H. The answer fs: The same thing will happen as will happen when Penn. State asks Harvard for a 1915 game. Yale, Michigan, Harvard and a few other large colleges are losing their zest for practice games. The great army of prize "fighters” having been duly mobilized, is now ad vancing rapidly toward New York, where there are enough of those folks that Barnum said were horn every minute to keep the boxers in luxury during the winter months. When Stallings took charge of the Braves in the spring of 1913 Houser was on first, Jackson on second, Dev lin at short and McDonald on third. Miller, Campbell and Jackson consti tuted the outfield. Johnny KUng was the regular catcher. Dickson, Perdue, Brown and Tyler were the main parts of the pitching staff. Of that team, only one man remains —Tyler. Kling has quit baseball; Brown Is dead; Perdue Is with the Cardinals; Miller with the Reds, Sweeney with the Cubs and Dickson, Campbell and McDonald have gone over to the Fed erals. Houser and Jackson are in the minors and Devlin Is playing on some semi-ro team in and around New York. Barnwell to Banish Care and Forget European War and Low Price Cotton Gala,-Trade Week Begins Tuesday in South Carolina Town. Splendid Exhibits to Be Made and Prominent Men to Be Heard on Subjects Vital to Farmers. Plenty of Amusement Features and Fun For Everybody. Barnwell, S. C. —Next week the peo ple of Barnwell and Barnwell county are going to forget about the war In Europe, banish dull care, eliminate equal suffrage from their discussions, and during Gala-Trade Week welcome everybody except the pessimist. He will find nothing In Barnwell to Inter est him, no one with whom to discuss the low price of cotton or what-are we-all-golng-to-do-next-year? Barnwell Is on the eve of a week of fun and frolic, business and Instruc tion, a mixture of the good things of life. Great preparations have been made and all Is in readiness for the opening of the Gala-Trade week next Tuesday morning l . In the Barnwell county court house exhibits are to be made by the Barn well County Girls’ Tomato Club—the same exhibit which won first prize money at the State Fair in Columbus recently. There will be exhibits of corn by members of the Barnwell County Boys’ Corn Club and some of the farmers whom these boys have taught how to raise corn that Is corn. The Southern Railway will have an exhibit as will also the Audubon So ciety—the same which attracted so much attention and proved so Inter esting when displayed at the State Fair last month. Prizes have been offered for the best showings made In corn, the corn exhibited to become the prop erty of the fair association. Good Speakers to be Heard. During the week some of th? most prominent’men In public life will make THE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA. Heinie the Zim has been reported as threatening dire things to the Cub management unless his 1914 fines are remitted. Th* Dear Public lias been led to believe that Heinie has been fined a few million kopecks this sea son. That’s a bunk Impression. The total fines levied upon Heinie is $125. Heinie, yearning for a bit of exer cise, soaked Johnny Evers and Rab bit Maranville of the Braves Inst sum mer before the rest of the Braves got a chance to soak him. That cost Heinie SIOO, the fine being assessed by President Tener. The other $25 was assessed by the Cult management. Heinie paid both fines without any kicks. Dame Rumor certainly is a busy little lady these days. The world series concluded about one month ago, yet none of the Ath letics have rushed to the Yore with any alibis, nor have they Sfttempted to spoof the Bravet*’ victory. Which speaks much for the sportsmanship of the Philadelphians. The theory that a fast ball when hit by a batsman travels farther than a slow hall was exploded this year. Chris Mathewson of the Giants, whose specialty is the fade-away ball and who seldom resorts to speed, wns touched up for 16 homers. Dick Ru dolph, tho slow ball pitcher of the Braves, was hit for nine homers. The fast ball pitchors on the Graves’ and Giants’ rosters were hit for fewer homers.

Fandom Idolized Johnson. It want ed to see him get all that he was worth. But when Johnson put him self on the auction block and boldly announced that he’ll go the highest bidder it put the commercial side of the game too much to the fora. addresses, talking on subjects which right now are of importance to the farmers. Hon. J. Emile Harley will deliver the opening address on Tues day. Wednesday W. W. l.ong, state agent of the Clemson College agricul tural extension work, or Hon. E. J. Watson, commissioner of agriculture of South Carolina, will speak. Thurs day Congressman A. F. Ig'ver, chair man of the agricultural committee of the national house of representatives, will be Barnwell’s guest, and on Fri day—Educational Day—Hon. W'. H. Hand, state high school children, teachers, trustees and patrons.

A handsome prize will he awarded to the driver of the best deco rated automobile In the parade Thurs day, and there will he several prizes awarded in the field day events. The social feature of the week will be the Cotton Masquerade Ball, to be held In the Masonic Temple Friday evening. The ball will be given under the auspices of the Civic League. The dancers will be masked, the ladies to wear cotton costumes. On the midway one of the best car nival companies touring the south will add to the amusement, and there will be several free acts.
