AUGUSTA LOCALS.
The Mission OF the Critic.

Critics didn't like his book,
Scored it without stint;
Said it never ought to have
Been put into print;
Raked the author right and left,
People wondered why
Scraped their cash together and
Rushed away to buy.
Critics didn't like his work,
Called it silly trash =
Everybody read it, and
Author got the cash;
Critics praised another book,
Author sits and signs
Nearly starved to death because
No one ever buys.

GREAT OUTPOURING AT THE

Senator Davis Likeness Was Shown

Were Some Additions and
Changes in the OIiO In the Way
of Improving 1t.

An immense crowd of people visited the
Cuba show at University avenue and Grotto
street, last evening. Almost as many were
turned away as were admitted and the grass
at the upper end Of the grounds was pressed
into service as reserved space for seats. Sew
eral hundred persons availed themselves Of
the privilege to sit on the grass and run the
chances Of catching cold
1t was expected that last night would be
HGbson night, but the management thought
SO they gave Senator Gavis a chance. sena-
tor Davis did not sink any Merrimacs or
capture any Santiagos, but he delivered a
speech the other night, and the management
of the show thought he was entitled to some
consideration. Besides, the Republican pa
pers had printed alleged portraits OF him
which looked like Ben Butler, and Manager
Berry wanted to remove the impression, so
he had an accurate picture of the senator
made in the fireworks and at the close of
the show set 1t off. 1t was great success,
and it was cheered by the populace, irrespeo-
tive Of their political preferences.
The night was favorable for such show as
Cuba. The air was clear and the fireworks
showed to the best advantage. AS on the
two previous nights Of the performance, the
programme was carried out without accident
or halt. The clio was given in its entirety,
and for once the audience did not rise to
leave the place at the close OF the first part.
That was due to the feEsthought Of Man
ager Berry, who stepped to the lake front and
announced in stentorian tones that the show
was only half finished.
The battle between the Cubans and Span
ish had been improved. Several men on both
sides now fall In the road when struck by
bullets, and are carried out on stretchers.
The effect is more realistic than at first.
1t was noticed last night that one of the
horses that had caused considerable trouble
during the previous performances was alb
sent Manager Berry explained it. He
said he discharged the horse for going into
the lake the night before.
This will be Hobson night. A splendid
portrait Of the Merrimac hero will be shown
and perhaps picture of the young lady who
kissed him at Long Branch The last per-
Torrance will be given tomorrow night. 1t
will be in the nature Of a peace celebration,
and if the weather is favorable an unusually
brilliant display OF fireworks will be given.
