WilsOn Barrett.

"Claudian" was presented at the Mozart
Academy Of Music last night by the
eminent English actor Mr.. Wilson Bar
rett, and his excellent supporting COM
pany.
The play Is one Of great interest, and
me scenes and incidents are such as per-
init extraordinary opportunities for such
an actor as Mr.. Barrett, who in his line
OF the romantic and heroic has no ST.
perlor on the English speaking stage.
The scene of the play is laii in Byzan-
tium, the old name for the city OF Com
stantinople, TO which latter name the
emperor Constantine changed the first.
The time Is A. ID. 400. There are great
chances for scenic effects in this drama.
and Mr.. Barrett. who has all OF the care
fulness OF Mr. Irving in elaborate details.
mas literally availed himself OF them.
The scenery, properties and accessories
are very beautiful and pleasing, the earth
quake scene being especially realistic and
thrilling.
Miss Jeffries. the leading lady, and all
the members OF Mr.. Barretts good sup
port, seconded ably the efforts OF the
star
"Claudian" will be repeated this even

cessary expenditure. Mr.. Cahill also de-
serves the support Of the people for bring.

OUT OF THE HOME.
An Old Confederate Soldier Talks to the
People of Atlanta

The following is taken from the Atlanta
Constitution OF few days since:
Thomas ]. Miner, an old Confederate
veteran who is just out Of the Soldiers
Home at Richmcnd, Va. passed through
Auant1 yesterday en- route TO Florida.
where he will take position with phos-
plate company.
Mr.. Miners home is in Fairfax county
and for more than n year he has been in
the Confederate home at Richmond. He
came out Of the war badly wounded and
three years age his condition became very
bad. so bad, indeed, that he was unable to
work. Like many other old Confederate
soldiers, Mr.. Miner was unable to care
for himself. Then. too he was too proud
to 90 10 begging. and too sensitive to 20 to
the poorhouse He knew that the Ccnfed-
crate home had been built for such MS he
snd it did not take him long TO find his
way into ii. There he came I'm contact with
many old comrades who were In the same
fx-unable to make n living
In the home Mr.. Miner received the best
attention. The best physicians OF Richmond
call at the home and give their services
TO the men who fought the battles Of the
South The attention he received made Mr.
Miner good man again physically and
as soon as he saw that he was going to
get well lie began looking fer a place where
he could make n living Through friends
he secured a place in Florida and within n
few days he will be earning his own liv-
ing.
But for the Soldiers Home in Richmond
Mr.. Miner would now be an object of
charity.
When Mr.. Miner reached Atlanta yes
terday be was wearing his Confederate
uniform, and as he moved about his gray
and brass buttons made him conspicuous.
I'm just out OF the home in Richmond"
he said, where | was sick for a long time.
That home, / want to say, is one OF the
greatest blessings in the world for the poor
soldier, and I'm surprised that Georgia
don't accept the home built here for the
boys. Had ii not been for the home in
Richmond l would now be an invalid or an
inmate Of some county poOrhOuse. Many
an old Confederate won't 20 to q hospital
who would go to a home expressly designed
for them. We feel that we have Just
claim TO be taken care of by the people
fer whom we fought. Then we were strong
and able TO take care Of ourselves. but gave
those years to enduring hardships for the
people OF the South. There we wasted our
splendid manhood and now when we are
old and worn out. | think the people ought
10 think kindly OF us-kindly enough not
TO send lis To a pOorhouse at least"
