At the Stoekyeu

Tomorrow evening Miss Jeffreys Lewis
will appear as Stephanie de MohrlYart In
Merlvale and Groves society drama, "For-
get-Me-Not." Stephanie is q character in
which Miss Lewis fairly revels, and her
superiority in the impeIsonation was un-
questioned till Miss Genevieve Ward hap
pened along this way from Australia.
Miss Ward created Stephanie, we believe,
and the play Is her property by purchase.

CLAY NJ. GREENE's NEW PLAY
The author, as well as the owner of this
piece, MIR. William A. Brady, have agreed
20 Its production at the Stock we'll by joseph
E. Grlsmer and Miss Phoebe Davies.
Greene at first wished it produced in New
York, so that he could be on hand to note
the dehcIehcles sometimes apparent at
first performance and correct them but on
second thoughts. he concluded to leave the
bringing out OF the work TO Grismer and
StOckwelrs judgment, especially as they
had new and well-equipped theater at
cob. ..,ald, and one from which the first
blush Of success has not yet faded AS for
Mr. GTismer ana Miss Davies, we thought
they had parted from this coast for good
ard ali last year--at least IL was industri-
ously so given out-aud were to open this
season in New York; but it seems that
they plead the production Of this new play
as q special reason for delaying their de-
pariure. We are not anxious to get rid Of
the Grismers, and only make these remarks
10 impress Joseph with the idea that 1t Is
not good form TO state anything for fact
when you are not sure Of it. When he Is
ready to 90, he had better act on Lady Mac
belIfs advice, and ''stand not upon the
order OF his going, but 90 at once" and we,
OH our side, may say to him, as Sheridan

prisoner charged with some trifling Of
Tense may expect to be received in select
circles in the jail, but he will soon find
out that the requisite to social success is
missing in his case. He finds hiinelf OS-
tracised, and in the loneliness OF his posi-
ton he begins to wish that he was a MUIR
derer or something else as bad to give him
distinction, and entitle him to respect.
He sees the marked Difference paid to
Asbury Gentry and Tom Delk and John
Dumas, and other men charged with muir
der, and he becomes jealous. He is allow
ed to walk about the cells, but he feels
like u CaStaWay.
AS an instance of how highly honored
men charged with grave offenseS are, the
case of Asbury Gentry may be cited. The
story has found its way into the jail that
Gentry killed an old peddler and that
he was once a terror in the region of his
home; that he shot at his guards when
he was being brought to Atlanta; and
that he fears neither God nor man. This
story caused the prisoners to receive Gen
try at the jail as a star bOarder. He was
given the best of everything going, and
the other prisoners looked to him for
advice. No one dared to cross him.
Straightway he became Il Judge and
by that honored title he is known to all
the Jail birds. If il should transpire that
Gentry was innocent he would fall from
the high pedestal upon which he has been
elevated on the assumption that he is a
bad mana relative Of the tough gentle
man hailng from Bitter creek. The pris-
Oners would cut his acquaintance, and
Gentry would find himself like unto a
king dethrOned.
Judge Gentry said So" is mighty au-
thority in Fulton county prison circles
Tell a refractory prisoner that and it will
move him when nothing else will. Gentry
is not Il tyrant in the JAIL though he
might be a veritable car. The ma jority
of the prisoners would be his willing sub
iects. They respect his cell as they would
respect a castle, and, while they do as
they please with the cells of the others.
they never subject Gentry's to the slight
est indignity. Unless they are on init
mate terms with him-and few of the
Jail birds are-they would not int1ude
upon the privacy Of his domcle except
they be invited by Gentry. Gentry has a
direct way of speaking, and uses but few
words to express his thoughts The priS-
OncrS never misunderstood him, and a
wish from han is never ,lisrcgaried The
man has a way of hiding his cal emotion

walls and talking to each other in the
rough. unconventional way of prisoners
and you have an idea Of the sights that
may be seen in the Jail corridor any day
in the week.
The prisoners are out of their cells for
the day and are spending the day as only
men of their types can, III rough joking,
scutfiinc. dancing. singing and talking.
Every Jew minutes the jailer raps on
the door
Keep less noise in there, boys" he
says, i'll Il warning voice, cor somebody
will go to the dungeon" and for a full
half minute a deathly silence
ensues. which is finally broken by some
prisoner shouting cut:
"WuZzent me, cap. l been a-tryin' ter
keep 'cn quiet, but dcy won't listen ter
me. Dis we're burglar Niger, Jack Brown,
is a-makin' de noise"
Then the cap states his belief that
the prisoner who has djsclaimed his guilt
is the guilty party, whereupon an argu-
ment ensues-generally ending in the Gull
prit being led to the dungeon to spend
an hour or two rejecting upon the evil
of his ways.

how remarks a prisoner, as the unfOrtu-
nate one is led to the dungeon, for the
man who goes TO the dungeon don't
amount 10 much in prison rank for he
is only charged with simple larceny.
A man who goes 10 Jail with such SIM
pie charge as that hanging over him will
never belong to the elite of jail society.
He will never Ire given the entree 10
select social circles in the Jail. He will
always be looked down upon. To go TO
Jail under charge of murder secures a
ready recognition from the most exclusive
of the Jail 800" The charge of murder
or of hcinOuS crime of any Kind is an open
sesame to honor from fellow-prisoners i'll

and if he We're to have good thoughts he
would never express them TO his lack of

ed mucn of the bad reputation he has
gained, and which his course in the jail
gives no evidence of being mCrited by
him. The impression that he gives to
persons who hear the stories about his
Wickcdness is that he is as black as he
is painted, for he makes no effort to ere
ate impressions. IN the Jail he does not
curb himself, and / have no doubt but
that he appears as bad as he really is to
his fellow prisoners, But that's another
story, and a mighty interesting gtOry of
itself

Another blUe-bIOoded ariStocraL nf the
jail is a man named Miller. who may lie
a very ordinary criminal, but the story
got among the prisoners that he HAD kill
ed four men, and wouldn't mind adding
another to the list Just for luck. This
greatly increased the regard in which Mil

the advantages that q, criminal of some
