THE GEORGIA FURNITURE CO., M. GOLDBERG, Prop. 563-565-567 BROADWAY Went To See Merry Widow Waltz Nearly Half a Hundred Times “The Merry Widow,” so far as the play Is concerned, is a thing of the past for the time being in Augusta, hut it will be a topic of conversation here, no doubt, for a couple of weeks or more. Many Augustans want to the theater twice to see the perform ance and some even the three times. All semed to be fascinated with the play as a whole and it is doubCTul if there are a dozen people who saw the show Friday :tnd Saturday nights who would not like to see it again. However, Augustans are not in it in going to see the play as compared with a citizen of New York city, who, in discussing the play with an Au gusta lady, stated that he actually went to see the performance forly tw'o times during its stay in New York. Of course, such an expression is usually taken with something to make it keep, in the vernacular of the day, salt, and while it is known that the story was repeatedly told with em phasis still there remains a little doubt, about the visits A young lady composing part of Augusta Paint & Wall Paper Co 307 Mclntosh, Corner Ellis. f Large assortment of Wall Paper and large force to do prompt work.

Industrial Lumber i Company Phone 262. the audience to whom the story was told, mildly suggested that the visits were made to a real merry widow and not to the play, but this idea was dis credited in view of the fact that the gentleman in question had expressly stated that he went to see the play itself. More than a score of Augustans had seen the “Merry Widow*' before it came to Augusta, but so far as could be ascertained but few of them stayed away on this account, all go ing who could conveniently obtain seats.
