Faust Tomorrow Night.

Lewis Morrison, Sin Faust" will be here
tomorrow night. Mr.. Morrison needs
no introduction to a Savannah audience.
His productions of dramatized Faust have
been given in the south with great sue
cess for the last three years While the
presentation is familiar to theater-goers,
it will be clothed in an entirely new dress
this time, entirely new scenery, new cleo
trical and calcium effects being employed
in the present production.
Another feature which has recently
been added is very clever quartette
which is said to render some of the class
ical music of the opera of Faust" in con-
junction with the action of the piece in
superior manner II is also claimed for
the company that it surpasses in quality
any one that Mr.. Morrison has yet Sc
cured
Among the names in the cast are those
of Miss Florence Roberts, who will be
seen as the beautiful but hapless Mar
guerite. The part of Faust is entrusted
to the care of Mr.. Edward Elsner, ris-
ing young actor. OF Mr.. Morrison's own
impersonation to Mephisto, the Prince of
Darkness, little need be said, as his work
is too 5ell known to need praise

Prof. Gentry was here about year ago
with his ponies and dogs, and gave a
splendid exhibition. He will return to
Savannah next Monday, and give an en-
tertainment every night. with matinee
Wednesday and Saturday, on the corner
of Price and Bolton streets, under his
large tent This is an entertainment
that everybody can attend, as it is re-
fined, moral and instructive. Prof.
Gentry, while only rs years of age, has
the finest collection of trained ponies and
dogs in the United States, if not in the
world, the ponies, sixteen in number, be-
ing Shetlands and East Indians, and his
white woolly dogs, mostly Russians and
very scarce, the value of which is over
$4,000. Prof. Gentry's entertainment is,
perhaps, the only one of like character
that is Endorsed by such men as the late
Rev. Sturgeon, of England, and Rev
Dewitt Talmage, of Brooklyn. He goes
higher than mere instinct with his ami
mails They certainly reason, and this is
why he reaches the heart of everyone
who witnesses his entertainment. He be-
lieves that dogs and horses are more in
telligent than people imagine, and that if
pony or dog could talk they could be

reached by great many people. Admis-

CoLoRED oYoLERs BARRED OUT.
They Cannot Hold Their New Years
Meet on the Wheelmen's Track.

| They Cannot Hold Their New Years
Meet on the Wheelmen's Track.
The colOred line among Savannah wheel
men was drawn last night by the refusal
of the Wheelmen's Track Association to
allow colored cyclers to use its track for
their proposed New Years day meet.
A meeting of the stockholders of the
association was held at the wheelmen's
club house on York street. OF the 3S2
shares of stock, 209 were represented in
the meeting Vice Pre- sident w. J. Lind
say presided, and Mr. S. M Whitesides
acted as secretary. A statement of the
condition of the association was sub
mitted, after which two hours discus
sion followed as to the use of the track
for the colored wheelmen's meet.
A vote was finally taken on resolution
requesting the board of directors to re-
fuse the privileges of the track for the
proposed meet, and it was carried. The
vote was 1876 to a.
Vice President Lindsay stated that the
directors in considering the lease OF the
track TO the colored cyclers, did 50 en-
tlrely from a business standpoint A
good rental had been offered
which without consulting the stockholders
they at once took under favorable con-
slderation. In view of the strong senti-
ment against it, however, the directors
acquiesced in the request to place the
matter before the stockholders. Last
nights meeting was called for that pur-
pose. The feeling had become so strong
in opposition to the use of the track by
colored wheelmen that the racing men
pledged themselves not to ride on the
track in the future if it were used for the
purpose proposed by the directors.
The protest was presented to the meet
ing and was strongly supported. The large
vote against the use of the track for the
meet is an evidence of how the large
majority of the members of the associa-
ton feel about the matter
The color line in the League of America
was brought up as an issue, and was
strongly argued. Under the request of
the stockholders, the directors will cancel
the lease for Jan. l.
A number of other matters were dis
cussed, among them the appointment of
ways and means committee, to provide
an additional revenue for the association.
