For Easter week of the new spring season the Grand will, for the week beginning tomorrow afternoon, offer a flattering bill of features full ol brightness and color and cheerful in stances, all tending to lift the lay mind from the morbid and dolorous scenes of every day life In the busi ness world, and offer a better clew of the optimistic occurrences that are I quite as frequent and of more good. The complete bill revels in singing comedy and novelty, and promises to make a great -success here, a success In keeping with the expectation of : the Grand cllentelle, and warranted ! by the high class regular weekly of | ferings of this place. One of the features will be provided by the Adele-Purvls Onrl a trinity of meritorious French gymnasts, each gifted with a fine stage presence, and their act is one of the most sensa tional novelties ever presented on any stage, introducing many startling elec trical effoct-s, and the act is present ed in such a manner that will make them talked about for many days. The extra feature is Haggarty and I.eClair, the real Irish entertainers, presenting “A Bit of Human Nature.” This act is copyright and the proper ty of Larry Haggarty, the real “King of Ireland.” This sketch is a positive novelty and Is not a caricature nor ; offensive to the Irish race, but on the I contrary this team of refined vaude villians introduces clever singing, gen- j uine Irish humor and heart interest. I T/arry Hagga.rty is an old establish ed vaudeville favorite and whatever his offering may be he always domi nates that offering, which was born to him. Miss LeClair, hls partner. Is a pleas ing comedienne and a laugh maker of a pronounced type and teamed with such a comedian as Larry Haggarty they are sure to make a hit that will add to their fame as well as keeping the Grand high-water mark. Sandford and Darlington (vaudeville comedy kings) will offer a fun feast that will make a mule laugh. Bill Jones, the character comedy star, is another bright offering for an already attractive bill. Inclusive motion pictures of the Grand pattern, than which there are none better and with a display with which none can compare will occupy their accustomed position on the reg ular daily bill. Everybody knows that at the Grand there is always to be found the latest and best picture plays .gathered from all parts of the world. Performances by the amateurs have come to be a popular feature here, and the amateurs have shown them selves so good that the woek’s bill will not be complete without one night being devoted to the would he’s,” and as next Friday night Is the night selected for the big fun night, a long list of local aspirants have entered for the cash prizes. Four performances will be given each day, beginning tomorrow, East er matinee, 3.30, and continuing until 6.30. Starting again at 8 and con tinuing until 11. Remember, “come when you please and stay as long as you like.” The top gallery is re served for colored patrons only, and colored nurses are admitted in the balcony at all watlnees, with children. The Grand is now the universal meeting place for all Augustans these warm afternoons and nights. Follow the crowd and you will meet me at tee Grand. AT THE SUPERBA. The Superba will present its pat rons Monday with a show In keeping with the season, and one ot the that ever graced the boards of an Augusta vaudeville house. No expense or effort has been spared to put on the very best pro gram ever seen at the Superba, and as good as any ever seen or to be seen at any ten-cent vaudeville house tn the South. The star attraction will be the Mu sical Wilsons, the "Colonial Duo,” the most elaborate musical novelty ever seen here,- This act will be put on with beautiful electric effects and spe cial stage settings, and Is guaranteed to be high-class and thoroughly en joyable, nnd alone worth *everal tipies the price of admission. Mr. C. Ernest Edwards, late of the "Slrollers Opera Company,” will be swn in a refined singing change act full of pleasing features. Alley & Thorne will furnish fun by carload in their original comedy sing ing and dancing act. Mr. Luck will again be heard in high-class Illustrated ballads, with fre quent change of songs and slides, the latter of which are genuine works of hand-colored art. mnde especially for Mr. mck. The song for Monday will be the beautiful ballad “T’d Live or I Would Dte for You,” a song by the composer of ‘lxive Me and the World is Mine," and one which haw attained almost as much popularity as the former. i The best of mot'on pictures put l on In faultless Superbagraph style will precede and close each show, making six big acts for the edification of the faithful, if you want to see a real show, visit the Superba this week. Monday pictures are run from 3 to 5 and 7 to 8, and from 5 to 7 and 8 to 11, real vaudeville holds, full sway. AMUSEMENTS THE ARCADIUM. One of the largest and most attrac tive Mils will be at the Areadtum be ginning Monday and lasting until Sat urday. They have listed people of great reputation in the art of mak ing people laugh. Such as the orig inal Joe Chevers, known the world over as the greatest character com edian and patter vocalist on the stage. A word from The Critic; “The Alham bra boasts of an old favorite this week In Joe Chevers. It Is now some time since we saw Joe here, but ap parently he has lost none of his tal ent as a comedian. There are few who ken the game better, nnd to his credit be It said I have seen some of the stuff copied more than once. ; Naturally, he has to oblige with the ' Bard ot Armagh, whoa* brogues are SPRING STYLES We wish to thank our Customers for the most generous Easter business our store has ever known, and to assure them that we will ever strive to give them the best values in Cloth ing and Furnishings it is possible for them to obtain.

MCCREARY’S “Home of Good Clothes” 742 Broad St. AUGUSTA, GA. bound with straw, and he lings the same as he always did, with fair pa thos.” Another big feature act will be little Miss Annie Chevers, who sings her songs in five different lan guages. This little Miss has made a hit in many of the largest cities jn the country. Rogers & Marvin, known as the song birds of the South, will present for the first time in this city a lgugfi ing comedy "A Quiet Evening at Home.” Edwin Rogers is a singing comedian and a laugh producer, and It can be said for the benefit of those with the blues, you will forget you ever had a care in the world. Miss Marvin is known as the phe nomenal female baritone in high class billiard. This act Is truly in keepipg with- the Arcadium motto, ‘’Quality Vaudeville.” It Is composed of good, clean comedy with funny situations and lines that bring legitimate laughs, also introducing old-time Southern melodies. It is one of the best dress ed acts in vaudeville.
