At THE THEATER.
Nat &. Goodwin 10 BE Seen Tonight
in "Ambitfon"


The closing event Of the week is Nat
Goodwin's appearance tonight in his lat
est play, Ambition. by Henry Guy Garlic
ton. This play illustrates the social life
in Washington, as well as the official. The
theme deals with the affairs public and
private, of Senator Obediah Beck, chair
man of the committee on foreign affairs
of the Senate. He is the leader of the
party, and is sought by the President, as
Secretary of State, and after refusing to
accept the office because he differs to
the head of the party as to the policy
of the United States on the Cuban revo-
luton, is supposed to be their leading can
didate for the presidency
The first act is timed ten days before the
presidential convention, and the second
four days after the first The two acts
are devoted to showing how the leader
of the party is betrayed by his personal
and political friends. The third act shows
Senator Beck in his room during the ma
tional convention. He discovers the
treachery of his friends, who have planned
to defeat him in the convention, and in
stead of allowing his own name to be
presented, he secures the nomination of a
trusted lieutenant, and brings confusion
and ruin TO those who have tried to de-
strOy him.
The sensational thread of the play is the
love of the senator for the daughter of
one of his oldest friends and present enc
miles, No where in the play is Beck's par
ty designated, but the observer gathers
as the play proceeds that he is looking
on a sort of composite photograph of SEN
ators Beck, Blaine, Morgan and Edmunds;
the original of which wields in the ma
tional convention and influence twice as
powerful as Mr.. Blaine's eXerted.
In all scenes Mr.. Goodwin is the pre-
dominating figure. Without seeming to be
such, the vein of pathOs which permeates
his delineation of Senator Beck, makes
it doubly attractive. Mr.. Goodwins sup
porting company includes such versatile
artists as Annie Russell, George Fawcett
Jean Clara Walters, Ethel Browning, Es-
telle Mortimer, C. f. Montaine, ]. G.
Saville, John T. Craven, Louis Barrett
Louis Payne, and others

THE TYBEE HOTEL SOLD.
Bought by Mr.. Charles +. Graham
for 100000.

Tor S2O,OOO.
The Tybee hotel has been bought by
Mr.. Charles F. Graham. proprietor of the
Pulaski house. for $4,000.
The bondholders of the hotel as will be
remembered, advertised the property for
sale some time ago, and as the time for
the opening of the coming season drew
on they began to look around for bidders.
The first mortgage bonds amount to $780,
Co., all of which, with the exception of
$1,000 were held by the National Bank of
Savannah as collateral. OF the latter
amount Mr.. William kehoe, president of
the company held $500, and Mr.. A. Minis
$500. The par value of the stock at 500
per share was $4,000.
The hotel was practically sold by the
from the bank by Mr.. Graham, who has
already paid portion of the amount in
cash as q guarantee of the contract.
Mr.. Graham is well known as the owner
and proprietor of the old Ocean house at
Tybee, outside of his connection with the
Pulaski house. He ran the Ocean house
five years before it was burned.
Mr.. Graham expects to put the new
hotel in thorough order and to have il OPP
ened, il the season permits, somewhere
about May !. Otherwise ii will be opened
about May 10.
Savannah has grown considerably as a
railroad center and there is no reason
why Tybee should not be made one of the
most desirable and most popular resorts
be made this season 10 make the island a
most attractive resort and these efforts
will be appreciated by Savannahians as
well as by non-residentS.
