receive its initial production in this city
tonight at the Crawford theater Quite a
curiosity has been excited in all classes
of theater-goers to witness this drama.
The company presenting it is said TO be
a very capable one, and Of necessity
must be so. Contrary to the ordinary
dramatic productions, this one needs and
demands exceptionally delicate treatment
and handling on account of its historical
as we'll as its religious nature The
scenery must be appropriate. the cos
tuning correct. as we'll as all of the par
all, however. it is absolutely necessary
that the interpretations of the different
characters in the play should be given in
a highly intelligent and artistic manner.
so as not to, in the slightest degree, mar
the beautiful impression gained by hav-
ing read the world-renowned novel.
1t is with these laudable aims in view
that the management has undertaken
this production, and everything in con-
nection with the play is Of such a ma
ture as to thoroughly harmonic with
the magnificent story. The drama is
having. and has had. a wonderful sue
cess wherever presented. This is readily
accounted for when one is aware of the
sterling merit Of the novel itself, and Of
the sacred character Of the story.

COLONEL JACKSON HURT.
Thrown From Buggy and Severely
 Bruised.

Col J. F. B. Jackson, supervisor of the county roads, was thrown from his buggy and severely bruised yesterday afternoon, caused by his horse running away.
 Colonel Jackson was returning from a tour of inspection via the Twenty-fourth street road, and just after crossing the tracks of the Highland avenue electric line the harness became disarranged caus- ing the horse to take fright.
 Colonel Jackson lost control of the anil nal, which dashed down the road at a break-neck speed, overturning the buggy and precipitating its occupant to the ground.
 Those who had seen the accident ran to the colonels aid and assisted him to a nearby house, where he remained until re- moved to his home, corner Seventh avenue and Eighteenth street, where he was at- tended by Dr. Cunningham Wilson. His in- juries amounted to nothing more serious than a number of bruises and a general shaking up. and he will soon be able to re- sume his duties.

T. ]. HAAS IS DEAD
 OF TYPHOID FEVER
Prominent Young Business Man
 of Birmingham
DIES AFTER BRIEF ILLNESS
Went to Morris Sanitarium Friday of Last Week and Died Last Night. A Pathetic Leave-T aking of His
 Friends Before Going Away.

MT. Theodore J. Haas died at the Morris Sanitarum in Eighteenth street shortly after 10 o'clock last night, after weeks illness from typhoid fever His father and mother, MT. Sol Haas and Mrs. Haas, will arrive in Birmingham this forenoon. After their arrival the funeral arrangements will be announced.
 The announcement of the death of "Ted- dy'' Haas will greatly shock and grieve the Birmingham public He had been at the sanitarium but d week, and the newspa- pers had reported his condition as being satisfactory, although it was made plain last Saturday that he had typhoid fever. Mir. Haas made his home with MT. Richard F. Johnston in Highland avenue. He had been complaining a little for several days, and on Friday of last week his temperature was found to be at 1O2. A carriage was suc- moned and he drove from the Johnston res idence to the Morris Sanitarium. Saturday mornings Age-Herald a week ago today contained this paragraph:
 MT. T. J. Haas is Ill at the Morris Sani- tarium, and it is feared that he has typhoid fever. He was to have left on Thursday to meet his father, MT. Sol Hass, in Wash ington, but was too i'll to travel. MT. Sol Haas Is going to California for the benefit of his health, which is wretchedy poor.
 That statement was based upon informa- ton received directly from MT. and Mrs. Johnston, who were down town on the Friday evening and were greatly distressed concerning MT. Haas condition. They told of his leave-taking of them and it Is of pathetic interest now; for as he entered the carriage he laughingly remarked that he was leaving the house in style, but didn't know how he'd return" In answer to that remark a bystander made jest, which shocked Mrs. Johnston, always generous and sympathetic, and she re- ferred to it to friends whom she met down town; and now the words of the idle jest have come mournfully true.
 MT. Haas was a member of the real es- tate firm of w. N. Malone & Co.,, and was one of the best knoNA- and most highly esteemed young business men of Birmins- ham. He had a multitude of friends, and by all the citizens he was held in abun- dant respect and goodwill, his genial and kindly manners being warmly appreciated. MT. Haas was about p years old and was the son of MT. Sol Haas, formerly traffic manager of the Richmond and Danville and later of the Southern Railway, and subsequently president of the Sloss Iron and Steel Company and latterly of the SlosS-S Sheffield Company.
