ing Last Nlght Hut Little Done.
There was but little business before the
Georgia Historical Society last night. 1t
was the regular monthly meeting of the
society, but further than the election of
eight new members and the decision to or
der some new books for the library there
was no business transacted.
il had been thought by some that The
question of establishing the much-talked-
about art school, in connection with the
Telfair Academy, would have been talked
about in an informal way, since the case
was recently passed in court without set
ling the issue as to whether this under
taking can be assumed under the condi-
tons of the will of the late Miss Mary
Telfair, the donator of the property. This
important matter was not mentioned
however, last night, and the meeting was
not in session longer than fifteen minutes

Amusements Planned For the Day.
There was a considerable suspension of
business yesterday on account of Labor
day. All the banks were closed as were
also the cotton exchange, the board Of
trade and the government offices. The
day was recognized, too, by number of
the private concerns, the merchants eth
er not opening at all or closing early in
the day. The holiday was greatly appre-
ciated by those, who We're able TO get off
from business for its enjoyment The
weather of course interfered with any out
of-doOr recreation, and the day Off was
consequently not enjoyed in many in

tendance at the base ball game, a trip
down the river with the typographical
union on It's picnic, or other forms of out
of-door sport been less impossible.

CHARMING LILLIAN KENNE

CHARMING LILLIAN KENNEDY.
A large audience witnessed the pre-
sentation of A. G. Gunter's four-act
musical comedy, "The Deacon's Daugh-
ter at the Opera House last night. 1t
was no larger than it deserved, how
ever, for Lillian Kennedy, in the title
role, supported by a clever and capable
company, gave a perfect presentation.
The play itself is brimful of laughable
situations, and the dual role of Ruth
HONEYWELL, the deacons daughter, and
Mabel Hawthorne, a fayorite actress,
gave Miss Kennedy an opportunity to
display some clever acting Her wash
tub song made an instant hit, and in
her medley OF songs. assisted by James
Kennedy. she was repeatedly encored.
Charles Wunder. as the deacon, played
the part In a clever manner, as did all
the others down TO the big NewfOund-
land dog, Colonel.

REMARKABLE COMEDY SUCCESS

In announcing the presentation of
the one remarkable comedy success of
last season, 'Never Again." next Fri
day evening the management of the
Grand Opera House feels safe in re-
peating Charles Frohman's assertion
that 1t is the most successful and, at
the same time, funniest play produced
during the past decade. Never Again"
comes direct from an absolute conquest
of New York for an entire season,
where the comedy received it's first pro-
duction last November, and scored the
one big triumph Of the season, playing
continuously for nine months at the
one theatre in the face of all kinds of
opposition. The metropolitan success
has been duplicated in all the principal
cities, and it is safe to say that this
brilliantly constructed laughing theme
stands pre-eminent among all the So
called farcical comedies of the modern
stage. ''Never Again" is entirely dis
similar to any of its predecessors. 1t
is thoroughly original in conception
and construction, rapid as a pantomime
in action. 1t is described as the fever
heat of fun, the climax of laughter
not that kind of laughter that sue
cumbs TO buffOonery-bu that which
yields TO bright, terse dialogue, humor-
GUS complications, rapid action and the
intelligent fun that naturally arises
from a well-told story dealing with q
farcical theme. The company is one oi
the very best that can be gathered to.
