GILL ETTE'S BRIGHTEST PLAY.

Grand Opera House next Saturday
night what is universally conceded to
be the brightest play by William Gill
lette. Too Much Johnson" The pro-
duction comes to us with the prestige
Of an entire seasons run In New York.
"Too Much Johnson" is intensely inter-
esting from beginning to end and in
its entirety an inspiration OF laughter
IL is original in atmosphere and local
ity an0 differs from all its predecessors
from the fact that Notwithstanding
that every situation is uproariously
laughable and the theme deals almost
entirely with exaggerations that might
crop out OF the ultra-farcical side of
life, il possesses every now and then a
moment that Is laden with life touches,
which raise it beyond the purely farci-
cal stage In modern comedy The
scenic surroundings are picturesque
and realistic, and the entire play is
staged in that munihcent manner that
is always seen in Charles Frohmans
productions.

eTHE GIRL ! LEFT BEHIND ME."


"The Girl l Left Behind Me" Will
come 10 the Grand Opera House on
next Wednesday night. This is the
play that had the honor OF opening the
Empire Theatre, New York, where 10
many plays by American dramatists
have been launched Il is itself the
work Cf two very skillful and popular
writers-David Belasco, whose writ
ings for the Madison Square, Lyceum,
Empire and other theatres have made
him famous, and Franklin Fyles, the
veteran and versatile dramatic critic,
of the New York Sun. It Is an open
question with many people whether the
actor makes the play or the play makes
the actor; in the case of THE Girl /
Left Behind Me-" it would seem that
the latter has been the case, for the
performers identified with this produc-
tion I'm New York and other cities have
been lifted through the sheer force OF
the plays vivid dialogue and stunning
situations, into positions which they
deserve.

SOUTHERN HAS MADE NO CUT
Old Schedule of Rates Is Still
Maintained.
Nothing VIII Probably BE Done in the
Matter Until Officials Return
TO Washington.

The Southern Railway Company has
not responded TO the cut in freight and pas
senger rates made yesterday afternoon
by the Seahoard Air Line. Vice Presi-
dent w. H Baldwin, Traffic Manager Culp,
and General Pass cnger Agent Turk are all
out of the city at different points on the
system. Until they return, or at least until
they can confer, it is not likely that any
change from schedule rates VIII lie made.
Mr.. l.. 8. Brown, District passenger agent
OF the Southern, said this morning that he
knew nothing at all Of the cut III rates,
further than what he saw in the paper.
Tickets were being sold at tariff figures.
Nothing would be done till the higher Off
ciais OF the line returned, il, indeed, any
thing was done then.
A, the same time OF the cut in rates the
Old Bay Line OF Baltimore, which isClosely
allied with the Sea board, sends out the
first steamer from Raitim ore of new line
10 Richmond, to compete with the York
River Line. recently set going by the South
ern Company, as an attack upon the Sea
board mana gers and owners.
When it was announced some months ago
that the Southern would establish tie York
River Line from Baltimore to Norfolk, Pres
ident Hoffman, OF the Baltimore Steam
Packet Company, which operates the Old
Bay Line, and alSo president of the Seaboard
Air Line, made oyertuIes to prevent tie
contemplated action, as disastrous to all
interests concerned. He offered induce
ments. it Is asserted, to prevent the pro
posed competition.
When he was unsuccessful he and his as
sociates determined upon general rate
war. and the establishment of the line of
steamers that begins today in order to
handle speedily their increased traffic.
General Manager Foster, Of the York
River Line, ays his company will Not cut
rates without the approval of Commits
sioner HaineS, of the Southern States
Freight AssoCiat ton. The establishment
of the York Rive rLine, he says, wa made
necessary by the establishment Of Nor
