SECURITIES NOW OFFER
SOME GOOD INVESTMENTS
NEW YORK.—J. S. Bache In con
cluding his weekly review of the fi
nancial situation has the following to
say of the markets:
The decline in the price of securi
ties place them now at an attractive
level for new or increased investment
and the sale of small lots began again
in volume during the low days show
that investors have taken advantage
of the slump for which so many of
them have been waiting. The level
of prices is now' such that further de
cline from political scare should not
be so severe. We look for a some
what irregular and fitful period with
the tendency again slowly upward un
til something develops.
Fewer flowers to the dead and a
little more charity to the living would
help some.
The Millinery Openings
It is a golden day that has been
given the milliners for their open
ings, a day that is ideally typified by
the exquisite sprays of golden-rod
with which most of the pretty par
lors are being decorated for tills im
portant event of the fall sea ion. The
hat-buyers are out in full force and
literally everybody Is making a selec
tion of what will adorn graceful heads
and frame pretty faces at the social
functions during tho coming season.
AT MRS. BELL’S.
Mrs. Bell has reserved her fall dis
play pf handsome millinery until next
week and today showed a few dozen
of shirtwaist hats and some exclusive
designs, orders which she had already
tilled. Her attractive parlors were,
however, filled with both sight seers
and shoppers, all of whom were most
anxious to place their ordors, for ir
respective of what was to be shown
later. Mrs. Bell’s clientelle is so
large and her judgment in regard to
their individual taste so perfect, that
very frequently almost every hat
shown at her displays are selected
before the day is over. Mrs. Bell to
day showed some perfectly stunning
hats that for beauty and exclusiveness
cannot be duplicated.
AT MISS CARRIE SULLIVAN’S.
It is impossible to describe the nu
merous and fetching creations that
were displayed this morning to the ad
miring public at Miss Carrie Sullivan’s
parlors on .laekson street. Mlsb Sul
livan has been kept busy all the morn
ing not only showing her pretty pat
tern hats, but taking orders for the
many who wished to get something
like the beautiful things that she was
showing. Miss Sullvan confined her
display today to hats for misses and
I ladies, and w ill a little later on show
one of the most perfect displays of
little people’s headgear that will bo
i seen in the city this season.
AT MISS KINCHLEY’S.
There have never been seen in Au
gusta a greater variety of handsome
hats at any one place than were to
day rlispla.vod at Miss Mamie Kinoh
ley’s parlors on upper Broad, each one
of which seemed to vie with tho other
in style and exclusiveness of design.
Miss Kinchley has been particularly
successful this season, as she always
is, and her chic hats are dreams of
beauty.
AT THE MISSES ROBERTSON.
The pretty up town parlors of the
Misses Robertson have today been
thronged with a steady throng of Ali
gns! ans who have been most pro
nounced in their appreciation of the
smart hats that, they have on display.
These artists have excelled them
selves this season and not to see their
beautiful creations Is to miss one of
the pleasures of the season.

creations in fashionable millinery
which was shown at Mesdnmes Morse

Augusta and the Widow.
Kdltor Herald, Sir:
It being understood that through
the efforts of the management of the

to bo played at the Grand on those
days. To the personal knowledge of
the writer, ihis attraction Ims been
thoroughly hilled in over one hundred
towns. Over twenty-live hundred
souvenir post cards have been mailed.
In fact every method pertaining (o
progressive advertising bus been em
ployed to bring (o Augusta the largest
number of people In her history ever
assembled to witness a theatrical per
formance.
It. Is needless to sny while this Is
being don,- by Ihe management of tho
Grand for tho sole purpose of attract
ing patronage 10 ihe performances of
"The Merry Widow,” at the same
lime II cannot lie denied Mini il is a
groat advertisement to Angiislii to
have such a mammoth production give
three performances in our city. In
view of the energetic efforts being dls
played by the management of the
Grand to increaso lheater patronage
and establishing Augusta ns one of
the best theatrical lowus In the South,
thereby insuring Iho people of Angus
ta the best and only the best attrac
tions on-tour. II appears t hut our lo
cal merchants are over-sleeping tlioir
rights In over looking so valuable an
opportunity of advancing tho Interest,
of Augustu and at the Hame time tlioir
own business In their failure lo co
operate with the management of Ihe
Grand by offering special inducements
to all out of town people who visit
AuguHth on thoHe days.
There should lie from fifteen hun
dred to two thousand strangers hero
'to witness these performances. Mr.
| Merchant, why not make each and
I every one of these people a customer
of your own store as well ns a pal roll
of the Ihealor? Advertise hi bar
gains for these two days. Advertise
your plan for paying their raliroad
fares to nnd from Augusta, therefore
giving them advantage of purchasing
their winter supplies In Augusta, as
well us witnessing a performance of
“The Merry Widow." Use this at
traction lo advertise your business
nnd Aiiguxln. Why wouldn’t it lie lo
the advantage of Ihe commercial In
lcresth of Augusta for Iho t’liumb, '
of Commerce, Retail Merchants’ As
sociation, and the Monsters' Club to
co-operate and affiliate In this move
ment with the management of the
Grand nnd instead of having exetir

secure rates on all; thereby starting
a new era In the theatrical us well
