THE SHOW LAST NIGHT. “When Ruben Comes to Town the At traction Last Night. A newspaper critic generally gives his opinion of an attraction according to the admission charged, “When Ruben Comes to Town/’ while a high clans musical comedy, is not worth $1.50, the price charged last night. This was the attraction at the Grand and it whs witnessed by a fair audience, which would probably have been a great deal larger had the price remained at what the show is prob ably worth—sl.oo, dawn stairs. Bert C. Thayer, as John Norman, ? a good comediani and has an easy, smooth way of amusing the audience; Edward Durand, as the Frencli Valet, was unusually good, and many in the audience were of the opinion that he was a genuine Frenchman. Doug las Flint i© also a good comedian and handled his part with credit. Miss Adlyn Hall, as Nora, was possessed with a very good voice unusually graceful, and also filled her role to the satisfaction of the audience. The oth er leaders also did verv well The costumes were all very pretty, the stag© setting and effects above the ordinary and the chorus was a well trained and good one. Tnere was plenty of pretty songs, catchy music and dancing, and altogether the at traction is a good one, when playing at usual prices. TO HAVE A BIBLE READING.

It may either be termed a sermon in a play or play in a sermon, or one of those rar Thespean combinations that attracts and pleases both saint and sinner. As an evidence of this the following letter from a well known minister will attest: •‘All Saints Church, Bay Side. New York—Messrs. Brady and Grismer: In thanking yon for the privilege of witnessing ‘Way Down East’ I will not attempt to particularize its many excellencies. “Speaking generally I congratulate you for placing before the public in suclt an admirable and artistic man ner a play that is so free from that which is objectionable, and at the same time so rich in wholesome amuse ment. “While tiie supporting company proves themselves to be thorough artists, the charming and graceful, acting of “Anna” gave the rendition of the play a peculiar degree of pleasure. “Bov.

A MILLION FOR ATLANTA'S DEPOT 4 Terminal Companies Now Agree to Spend a Big Amount * .1 THE CAPITOL CITY JEfiILA\T ) i— ■. Entire Sum Set Aside for Passenger Depot, shed and Improvements Will be Spent by the Company. The following story from yesterday’s Atlanta Constitution will be read with interest in Brunswick as well as all over the ®lWte. The entire sum originally set aside to be used in the erection of a depot and shed and making improvements will be spent by the Terminal com pany! This information will be received with keen pleasure by not only Atlan tans, but by the traveling public gen erally, for it means that nearly a mil lion dollars will be expended on the handsome new depot and its appurten ances. Consierable dissatisfaction was ex pressed when it was known that the depot proper would cost $350,000 and the shed a good deal less than wtao at first stated. It is possible that mew bids may be called for on the shed, but in the case of the depot building, the money will be spent by the contractors in chang ing the specifications to make the equipment elaborate to iavlshness. It is understood that -two or thee magmificient features will be added, and that the grounds around the depot will be improved to the extent of $lOO,OOO. The information came from Wash ington at midnight last night, too late to secure verification or denial locally* but the Washington correspondent states that/. i\ information is aWu tely correct that he has it on the highest authority. The following is the telegram from Washington: Washirtdon, actoi/er 4.—Here is some good news for Atlanta, Geor gians and southerners, too, for that matter: The railroads have authorized the board of directors of the terminal company in Atlanta to expend every cent of money originally appropriated for a depot inAtlanta. This means that instead of spen ing half ai million, as the contracts 'o date call for. there will be expended nearly a million, and tjie depot will be a thing of beauty and joy forever. The interior work will be more elab orate, and much of the steel worl< will be changed and enlarged. It is un derstood that the shed will be im proved on in several ways and that it will cost nearer $500,000 than its pres ent cost.

The public schools of Brunswick were opened yesterday, and it was the greatest opening in the history the city. As has been expected all along the increase was a large one, and while the figures were not exactly known the attendance was something over 400, an Increase over last year of about 175 school children. Superintendent Ballard, the princi pals and his able corps of assistants were all in their respective places when the little tots of all sizes began their yearly trot into the schools. Yesterday wan consumed in assign ing the pupils to their respective grades, giving them their booklist and arranginng all preliminaries. While eviery grade is comfortably crowded, there is hut one which i really overcrowded, the first grade, and, to accommodate and give all of the children seats, it will be necessa ry ta form anew grade both at Miausfield street building and at the New Town school. This will probably be done. , Superintendent Ballard, when seen by a News representative last night, said of the opening: , “The opening of the schools in Brunswick today, breaks all previous records in thie history of Brunswick. The increase in the number oif pupils is abiut 175. While the schools are all well crowded, I tL.na there will be room for all,, with the addition of the New Town school, which will receive children tomorrow morning.” The New Town school, as Mr. Bal lard states, will be open tomorrow, but the children who are to go there dur ing the year, reported to the Maos tfield street building yesterday received their grade assignment and list of books and will report for work to morrow.

Parentß are urged by the principal and teachers to see to it that their children attend school. Not a single negro child should be seen on the streets of Brunswick during school hours. The board of education has done a good part by the colored people and it is willing to do more if necessity demands.

This sys tem, which is well known to the peo ple generally, did not go into effect until yesterday morning, but all of the stores where these stamps were given an unprecedented increase in businssp wias perceptible. It must be borne in mind that the advent of this system has been exclusively advertised in The News and had it not been for these columns the public would not have known of such an arrangement. Messrs. A. Kaiser & Bro., who vir tually inaugurated the system, enjoy ed a splendid trade yesterday and is sued a large number of these stamps. Louis H. Hymn, the advertising mana ger of the concern, when seen by a News representative yesterday, said: “I am more convinced than ever that advertising in the Nows pays: its ai good investment and our busi ness today has shown great increases in ail departments. I want you to save a half page for me in your next Sunday's issue, for l think it a splen did investment. Morgan's drug store also showed increases in sales and Mr. John Morgan, the popular manager, says he is more convinced thau ever that ad vertising—when you put it in the .News —is a good investment. A. Rothschild the jeweler, sold a bunch of goods yesterday, and like the other two mentioned, Mr. Rothschild says that News advertising has prov en to be the very thing ho has been looking for and he also wants an in creased space and the big ad in Sun day’s issue. Fleming & Waff, W. 11. DeVoe, Al bert Arnheiter, in fact other places where stamps are given all enjoyed nice increases in trade and they are all of the opinion that if there is any good way to superinduce traffic and trade it is by patronizing the News’ ad columns.
