loving notice of the company is from the
Albania journal:
The Woodward Company opened the
theatrical season at the Columbia to one
Of the largest houses ever assembled in
that popular play house. Every seat was
taken and many forced to stand through
cut the evening. The Great Diamond
Mystery was presented in thoroughly
enjoya BILE manner. Il proved an excellent
melodrama. with plenty of comedy TO en-
iiven the more serious parts Of the play.
Woodward has surrounded himself with
proba bly, the best company he has ever
brought to Atlanta. Nearly all are new
to local theater goers. Although last
nights performance was the first tine

Tho youth was Hermann, and the mir

to deceive a mirror either in the matter
OF bad looks or bad tricks. Yet young
Hermann for one solid year, tried day
after day to deceive that mirror with his
hands. But the mirror with the image
of Hermann in it, saw everything, and
the boy conjuror even at that age, was
dissatisfied with it. 1t would not be de-
