The Anti-Tuberculosis Society illus
trates the frightful toll of consumption
by extinguishing a light every three
minutes, and shows that it is the man

one to contract tuberculosis—and
none are immune.
During changing seasons, or after

fume on one of his female patients,
who becomes so joyous that she
throws her arms aroutfd his neck and
hugs and kisses him ardently. The
woman’s husband, a spit-fire French
man, is a witness of the scene, and
demands as satisfaction for the in
jury that the doctor shall deliver to
him his own wife to be hugged and
kissed after the manner of the recent
adventure. The doctor promises, but
engages a young and pretty actress
to impersonate Mrs. Thorne. With her
he goes plutonically to a watering
place, and the Frenchman follows
them.. Here ensues some lively ad
ventures thi ending their way through
a maze of n.istaken identities.
Th' music of "High Jinks” is said
to be as lively and catchy as the
plot. The feature of the score is a
song, "Something Seems Tingle-Ingle-
Ing,” repeated frequently throughout
the course it the performance. As
soon as thi melody is started the
whole stage breaks into a frenzy of
Joy. Other attractive numbers in the
rich score are “Jim,” “Love’s Own
Kiss.” "I’m Through With Roaming
Romeos,” “Chi Chi,” “Not Now, But
Later,” “Come Hither Eyes” and
“I Know Your Husband Very Well.”
A large and richly gowned chorus
of the prettiest girls ever brought out
of New York, is a live-ly feature of
the entertainment. They change cos

beautiful garden just out of Paris, and
later the scenes around a fashionable

Amusements
AT THE MODJESKA.
The biggest week in the history of
the theater c pens today with a most
attractive program. Planning long in
advance for the features to be incor
porated in the Thanksgiving week, the
management has assembled a collec
tion of pictures so enticing that it
behooves you to miss not a one.
The chief feature for today is call
ed “Despair,” in which Edna Mayo
and Bryant Washburn are the fea
tured stars, tt comes in three big
Hssanay acts, and is a picture to be
enjoyed and appreciated. Kdnay Fayo
plays the role of Lois Tanner, a
crook, who has been trained froij
childhood in the light fingered art. She
is in league witli a gang and when
they plan to rob the house of Spurier
(Bryant Washburn), a wealthy news
paper publisher, she goes along. The
robbery is discovered and she is the
only one caught. But Spurier is so
impressed by her beauty and wit that
he decides U give her a chance by
making her a number of his reporto
rial staff. She makes good to the sat
isfaction of all. But that’s not the
end of the story. She falls in love
with him, not knowing that he is en
gaged to another. You must see the
picture and find out what happens.
G. M. Anderson is to be seen in one
of his famous Broncho Billy plays
called “Broncho Billy Evens Matters.”
It is full of the Western atmosphere
which, backed by Mr. Anderson's
strong acting, makos an acceptable
feature. Other pictures on the bill
are "Up Against It,” a Lubin comedy,
and "In Zu-Zu Land,” a Lubin com
edy.
“The Raven” Coming Thursday.
Of genuir interest to everybody,
"The Raven” on Thursday, is de
stined to score one of llio greatest
triumphs in the history of motion pic
tures in Augusta. And for several
reasons. Prominent among them Is
the fact that Henry B. Walthall plays
the leading role and dominates the
play by his strong personality. Those
who witnessed “The Birth of a Na
tion” wore strong In their praise of
the work done by "the little Colonel."
Many of them don’t know his name
but all were agreed that his work
was up to the highest standard of ex
cellence. "The Little Colonel” was
Henry B. Walthall and he plays the
central figure in "The Raven” on
Thursday. If you enjoy the best in
motion pictures, lie sure and sea "The
Raven” on Thursday.
TOMORROW AT THE DREAM
{►AND.
The inincl ml picture at the Dream
land tomorrow is about the host
thrillers ever shown at this popular
play house. Some thrillers are staged,
you know, around one big feat, ami
classed as dangerous. So they are for
a small part of a single minute. But
when Helen Holmes ads In a play
and calls It a “thriller,” you may rest
assured that something is waiting sos
you. The picture tomorrow Is called
“Tho Mettle of Jerry McGuire," and
Is a Bison three-r'eler. Just as
Marie Walcamp has made a name for
hi rself by her daring work in tho zoo,
Just so has Miss Holmes made rail
roading a romance In the pictures
She is supported in this feature by
J. P. McGowan and between the two
you are furnished with an excellent
grade of pictures.
And there Is an entertaining pro
gram on besides the feature. "The
I.ittle Captain of the Scouts" is a
Than-O-Play, which is the new name
for Thanhouser dramas. It is pre
sented by an all-star cast, Including
some capable child actors.
“On the Secret Service” Is an
American play of telling force; “The
Twentieth Century Susie” is a Joker
comedy. If you are searching for a
variety program that contains much
of interest, see The Dreamland to
morrow.
AT THE GRAND
"The Prince of Pilsen."
At the Grand Dec. 2nd, the tuneful
and fumlliar airs of that most virile
of musical comedies, "The Prince of
I’ilaen,” will be heard again.
'1 he beauty of these songs, auch as
The Message of the Violet," "The
Tale of tho Sea Shell,” and "Stein
-'•ng.' with Its swinging Heidelberg
refrain; “The Song of the Cities,"
“ Pictures in Smoke,” and othera, have
served In a large measure to main
tain a lasting popularity for this en
tertainment. Prank Pixley's story and
lyrics have more poetry and romance
than usually attach to a work of tnls
kind, and Gustav Luders’ rythmic
harmonies retain their freshness and
charm.
This year there is an enormous all
star revival of “The Prince of PIP
sen” and Its cast embraces the names
of Jess Dandy, the original In the
star role; Mabel Harris, Kdward T.
Mora, Dorothy Delmore, Irene Duke,
ITorence Hensel, Helen PltzPatrlck
nr.d others. Skill and Judgment In
effecting the alliance of vocal excel
lence and good looks In chorus con
tingents are strikingly exemplified in
this organization.
“The Garden of Allah,”
“The Garden of Allah,” which will
come to the Grand at an early date,
takes high rank as a scenic produc
tion forming the background for the
large company of players, camels,
horses, donkeys, pigeons, etc., all of
which It will require five large bag
gage cars to transport from city to
city.
The first curtain will go up on a
scene entitled, “The Spirit of the Des
ert,” an early dawn scene on the des
ert. The caravan of a Hhlek of the
desert moving slowly across the stage,
Includes Arabians Imported especially
for this play, five camels, together
with many horses, shaggy donkeys and
goats. As the sun rises, the Sheik
descends from his camel and prays to
Allah. *
The second scene Is of a hotel ver
andah on the edge of the desert, with
large, real palm trees In the fore
ground. The third scene Is of a
street In foiled Nalles. The fourth
scene Is of the Interior of an Arabian
shop, with Its gathering of Arabians
and dancers, Incense, flute and drum
music, producing a rarely realistic
atmosphere.
The garden of Count Anteonl, In the
second act, Is Ml c true Garden of Al
lah, and one io ft.he most beautiful
scenes In the play. In the third act
occurs the famous sandstorm on the
desert, and, although being a bleak,
bare desert acene, It le surpassing In
Its beauty and magle scenic effects.
The outside of a Trapplat monastery,
near Tunis, furnishes the scene for
the laet act. Attention to detail
throughout the performance has done
much to make this the most wonder
ful scenic spectacle of the modern
stage, as has been proclaimed bv crlt.

In announcing the opening of a UNITED CIGAR STORE
next Saturday, we want to make one or two facts plain.
We come to this city because we believe there is plenty of
room for* us here.
There is no spirit of “conquest’' about our enterprise.
Usually the retail cigar business takes on new Jife when
we come to town —there is more hustle and all thrive in a
spirit of good-natured rivalry-fair, square competition.
That is business.
It is a race and the largest winner is he who gives the
consumer the most or-the best for his money.
In a hustling growing city like this there is constant
increase in the 6igar business—all lines of business.
There are hundreds of places where cigars are sold in
this town. If we do our level best we will get our share of
the increase.
We know we will never get any more than we earn and
deserve, and we expect to hustle for all we get.

When Densmore arrived here he
said:
“My mission to California is to dis
cover what is wrong with the immi
gration service at Angel Island and
to fix the blame upon the heads of
those responsible for tho wholesale
smuggling of Chinese into this port."
He refused to add anything to this
before leaving for the month.
