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.

PEOPLES FORUM. Augusta and the Widow. Kdltor Herald, Sir: It being understood that through the efforts of the management of the Grand, several of the railroads enter tug Augusta have agreed to put on excursion rales Into Augusta from all surrounding towns within a radius of one hundred miles, on October oth and 10th, to enable all who so de sire an opportunity of witnessing the performance! of "The Merry Widow” THE CiHAND, Wednesday, Matinee and Night. JULES MURRY OFFERS NORMAN HRCKETT, IN THE GREAT AMERICAN CADET PLAY “CLASSMATES.” SEATS SELLING NOW. Matinee, 25c to St-00. Prices at Night, 25c to $1.50 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 sion rates on a few of the railroads, secure rates on all; thereby starting a new era In the theatrical us well ns In the commercial interest of An giisla.
