The Wilbur-Kirwin Company Is without question the leading opera compa- ny playing at popular prices in this coun- try, and, according to the press in many cities 1t is superior to many of the compa- nies playing at regular prices, and splen- did engagement may be looked for. The Strauss waltz opera, "The Queens Lace Handkerchief" has been selected for the opening opera, with all of It's beautiful mu- sic and costumes. In the third act will be introduced the Kirwin March, in which twenty-iour of the prettiest girls in comic opera drill better than West Pointers, and Say You Love Me- Sue," Weber & Field s latest New York success, with a genuine Mississippi cakewalk.

 The Christian
 ''The Christian" the play dramatized from Hall Gaines very popular and suc- cessful novel of the same name, comes to the Jefferson Theatre next Monday and Tuesday and Tuesday matinee. Theater- goers (and many that are not so classed) are familiar with the phenomenal success of the play when first introduced two years ago with Viola Allen as Glory Quayle"- Its central character-and there is no doubt that the engagement here will test the ca pacity of the theater. The stage settings, accessories and effects that were a feature of the original production will be in evil dence here. Miss Julia Stuart will be seen as Glory Quayle, in which difficult role she has attained signal success. Lionel Adams will be the John Storm, and the long list of other characters will be in capable hands. "The Christian is presented in a prologue and four acts. The scene of the prologue is laid in the tliting- grounds in the ruins of Peel Castle Isle of Man. The first act of the play takes in salon of the Coliseum Music Hall, London, where Glo- ry Quayle has made her debut as a singer; the second in the club room of St. Mary Magdalene's church, Soho, where John storm has become worker in the slums Of the east end of London; the third in Glory Quayle's apartments in the Gordon House, Clements Inn, London, and the fourth In the club room of John Storms church.

FREIGHT RATES
 OF BIRMINGHAM
Interstate Commerce Commis- sioner Clements in the City
 to Hear Complaints.

Hon. Judson C. Clements, of Georgia, member of the Interstate Commerce Commission, accompanied by the rec order for the commission, J. H. Fish back, of Washington, is in the city. He came here to take testimony in the case of the Birmingham Freight Bureau against the railroad companies entering the city. The hearing was set for to-day, but as the Freight Bureau had not been informed of the coming of the commission the hearing will have to be postponed until some future date to be fixed by the conn mission.
 It will be recalled that during the past summer the Birmingham Freight Bureau through it's secretary, H. c. Orem, filed a complaint against the railroads entering Birmingham, in which 1t was charged that the roads discriminated against Birming- ham in the matter of freight rates. The specific charge was that a higher rate was charged on shipments from the east to Birmingham than to Memphis, although the distance to Memphis is considerably greater than to Birmingham. The Inter- State Commission notified the traffic man. agers of the filing of this complaint and finally fixed to-day as the date for taking testimony in the case.
 The commission advised Mr. Orem of the fact that the date for the hearing had been fixed for to-day, but as Mir. Orem is not in the city and has not been for sev- eral months, the Freight Bureau had no informa ton of the coming of the commis- sion, and therefore was not prepared to present its side of the case.
 MT. Clements stated last night that after learning that the Freight Bureau had not been advised that he would be here to-day he informed the representatives of the railroad, companies that the hearing would be postponed until some future date.
 Hon. Ed Baxter, a Nashville attorney, was present to represent the railroads. The following officials of the roads were also present to give testimony: Traffic Manager A. w. Graham, of the Louisville and Nashville; G. L. Barnum, chief rate clerk of the Central of Georgia; J. w. Steadwell, executive clerk to the traffic manager of the Nashville, Chattanooga and St. Louis road at Nashville; T. c. Powell, assistant general traffic manager of the Southern railway at Louisville; J. N. Dewberry, of Louisville.

frequent this week the yield of corn
will unquestionably be very short /;
pulling fodder is still underway.
Tobacco in many sections has fired
again, and cures are of poor quality
on account of premature ripening.
Necessarily sweet potatoes, field
peas, and peanuts will reflect the ad-
verse weather conditions when the
harvest begins. Rice is ready for
cutting. Late cabbage in the west
has been much injured. Fall hay
will be short. Further reports on
