this afternoon. The great comedian will
present his old-tims success, "a Woman
Halter" Mr.. Reed consented to give the
matinee performance In order that the la

which many would not otherwise have on
account Of the holiday seasons business
preventing their escorts from attending the
theater at night
His play, LEND Me Your Wife" which
he will present tonight Is one Of she moss
successful this favorite comedian has ever
had and shows him to great advantage The
story is Of nephew who, to secure fnan-
cial assistance from his uncle, represents
that he Is married, whereupon his allowance
is doubled. The uncle turns up on short
notice one day for a visit TO the nephew and
his wife, and the nephew. fearing disastrous
results should his deception be found out,
borrowed a friends wife and baby for
an afternoon. The friend and husband Ia
placed in a very embarrassing position
and maintains his part much against his
will, especially as the uncle falls in love
Immediately with the woman, who he sup-
poses Is his nephew's wife, and lsvishes
kisses and caresses upon her continually
At these amatory demonstrations the
woman's husband becomes indignant and is
barely successful In maintaining bis part TO
the plot, while on the other hand, the uncle
regards him as a rank and impudent inter
ferer and is on the point Of hurling the
young man from bis own house. or course,
matters are finally settled sgreeably.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPERS.
The Stores Doing a Rushing Holida
Trade.

The Stores Doing a Rushing Holiday
Trade.
The merchants have no reason to complain
OF a dull holiday season this year. If they
have appearances must be very deceptive.
For days the streets have been crowded and
the stores filed with shoppers in search of
suitable gifts Of every character and maxi
ing provisions for Christmas day. In fact
it appears as if almost the entire female
population had laid aside other cares and
devoted itself to Christmas shopping
An unsophisticated bachelor entering one
of the large stores in search of Xmas goods
will find himself surrounded by such an
array of women, all inspecting. purchasing
and talking at once, that he will be liable to
lose his judgment altogether and purchase
the first thing he can lay his hands on
without regard to its appropriateness for
the purpose intended.
To-day and tomorrow will witness the
grand final rush when everybody who has
not yet laid in a supply OF Christmas goods
upon the stores. The clerks and
saleswomen will certainly be glad
that Christmas comes on Sunday this year.
They will need the rest. They will have
double reason to rejoice. as Monday will
also be holiday and they will then be in
nt condition TO enjoy themselves.
Outside of the shopping district every
thing appears to be rather quiet for the sea-
son. The Wholesale men are resting on their
oars just now with the exception of the
liquor men, who are sending out jugs by the
carloads Christmas eggnog is home in
dustry at this season, and very popular
one.
The prediction is made that this will be a
quiet Christmas. Not poor one by any
means, however. The day falls on Sunday
for one thing, and there has been so much
political excitement of every kind lately
that the people are glad to accept Christmas
as an intermission.
The small boys are signalling the near ap-
proach OF Xmas by increasing their bon
fires each night There will be nothing
short about the bonfires this year. The
boys have stored away more barrels than
ever before, and they propose to illuminate
the city In the most approved style The
Madison square boys claim TO have 500 BAR
rels in stock, every one of which was stolen.
They confidently claim they have twice as
many barrels this year as the boys Of any
other square in the city. They propose to
build bonfire as high as the Jasper monu-
ment, which stands In the center Of the
square. The bonfires and fireworks will
begin in good earnest Tonight all over the
city and tomorrow night every square in
the city will be ablaze. There is no other
city ia the country where the boys have
the opportunities for fun that they have In
Savannah. They about own the town
Christmas day aud they know it. IL makes
the old fellows sad when they look at the
youngsters enjoying themselves and think
that they had just such fun when they
were boys.
