AT THE THEATER.
A Crowded House to See the Minstrel
show

There were long lines OF people waiting
to buy seats when the ticket windows
at the theater last night open
ed. BY the time the curtain
went up there was only standing room
left, and not much OF that. The attrac-
ton was Primrose and Vests minstrels,
with George Wilson In the cast. Wilson
is favorite I'm Savannah, and always re-
ceives an ovation. There is no better man
in the burnt cork business but then
George Primrose comes In for the same
compliment. and his work last night was
very fine The first part, with black and
white faces, and rich, new costumes was
rare treat. The singing solo and choral,
was the best heard in the theater In
many years.
The company of Primrose and West
comprises nfty men, white and black, and
they are among the best on the road. The
comic songs, the dances, the jokes, were
new, which Is saying great deal.
George Wilson's monologue was, as US
ual, the bright feature OF the show, and
he got royal reception from his many
old friends and admirers IN the audience
Messrs.. jerome and Alexis, with a very
pretty bit of jungle scenery as n back
ground, did some very fine contortion
work The Ben Womell trio of Indian
club artists gave undoubtedly the best
work of It's kind ever seen In this city
The funny music act Of Howe, WIN and
waters was very clever. The show
closed with the Phantom Guard drill.
Nat c. Goodwin will be seen to-day in
two plays-The Rivals at a matinee and
An American Citizen tonight As Bob
Acres, Mr.. Goodwin Is known to almost
every theater-goer In the country. An
American Citizen is his new play, in which
he Is supported by Miss Maxine Elliott
Mr.. Goodwin has an ideal role In the
character OF young and energetic law
yer; His opportunities for comedy as
well as dramatic work are said TO be great
er than any play he has heretofore ap-
peared In. Miss Elliott assumes the lead
ing feminine role. Others i'm support are
Clarence Handysldes, Frazier Coulter
William Ingersoll, Louis Payne Neil
Brien, L. e. Woodthorpe, Gertrude Ell
lott, Estelle Mortimer, Hattie Russell
etc. An American Citizen is from the
pen of Madeline Lucette Ryley who has
written several successful comedies mo-
tably Christopher Jr. The first production
OF An American Citizen was given In Aus
tralia, where IL was so we'll received that
Mr.. Goodwin, INSTEAD of making IL one OF
a repertoire, as originally intended played
It alone. It's first American presentation
was In San Francisco.
The sale of seata for Mr.. Goodwin's en-
gagement has been the largest so far OF
the season. Owing to the fact II Is SAT-
urday night the curtain will be rung up
at o'clock-haf an hour earlier
than usual The matinee will be at 2:30
O'Clock.

Special Gospel Servlces.

More things are wrought by prayer
| than this world dreams Of" Elijah
was mighty in prayer. If men are
turned from the error of their ways,
Christians must pray. If the impeni-
tent in Augusta are saved, Christians
in Augusta must concern themselves
about it. Do you pray? Do you con-
Germ yourself about the welfare of the
citizens of Augusta? These were some
of the pointed questions put to the
congregation last evening.
Mr.. Taylor suggested the noon tide
prayer. and urged upon all Christians
the Importance of united prayer If
all Christians, all over this city would
turn their hearts upward in prayer, he
thought it would have great influence
in strengthening the cause. No matter
where people are: whether preparing
a dinner or in the shop. oron the street,
they can praysor this work. if they are
in earnest. Those who can not attend
the meetings can pray. and they can
labor. Prayer and works must go to-
gether.
The meeting this afternoon will be
held at 3 o'clock. Service as usual at
80 in the evening
