In his new play For Revenue Only"
which he will produce Thursday night,
Mr.. Milton Mobiles has made something of
a return upon his first memorable pro
duction, 1.-The Phoenix" Mr. Mobiles is
peculiarly gifted man, clever actor, an in
genious constructor, ana an effective
writer of plays that deal oddly with the
foibes and tendencies of human nature
1t is said that his latest effort is undoubt-
edly his best. In none of his previous at
tempts in the line of stage literature has
he evinced the talent that marks the play
he has labeled For Revenue Only" The
piece is described on the bills as a politi-
cal and satirical comedy. For once the
designation is correct. Of all the plays
and alleged plays aiming at the vulner-
able points in American politics few have
come nearer home than this. There is
the added concomitant of a very faithful
Though eXaggerated) reflection of the
country newspaper as an element in politi-
cal campaigns
The Brunswick Times prints this little
story of Larry Hanley and his experience
and that of Miss Aubry at Brunswick:
There were lively times at Wallace's yes
terdap morning. MIR. Lawrence Hanley
and his two leading lladies, Miss Harriet
Aubry and Miss Edith Lemmert, went
there for early breakfast before leaving
for Macon. They were seated at the
table and everything was going smoothly
until Wallaces pet Gotta monda came in
making its morning round The little
animal is very playful, so it hoped upon
Mr.. Hanley's knee. He is not a lover of
small animals so he gave it a terrific slap
with his large hand. No being used to
rough treatment the Gotta monda rushed
over to where Miss Aubry sat for refuge
and went beneath her skirts 1t grabbed
her ankle and she screamed, Jumping into
the center of the floor. This frightened
the animal worse, so it held tighter to
Miss Aubry's ankle. She was standing in
the center of the room with her skirts
elevated, and the Gotta monda never
thought of loosoning its grip until Joe
Wallace grabbed his red whip and popped
it. Then all was over. The ladies were
very muchly frightened, and the guests
were highly entertained
