Macon People Again Talking of Starting a
Boat Line to Brunswick

The following is from tie NRcor

Capt Wolvert0n, who has charge OF
the government work of olsaning the
Oomnlgee river, came up from down
the river whers his boat stat noned, yes

WalVerton. that it will tend to make
the channel keep itself oleau.
1t is we'll known fact that boat
line would be paying investment. for
it would materially lessen the freight
rate in Macon and would put it on par
with Augusta. This would mean Il save
to the merchants and business men of

Boston, Philadelphia and other places
via Brunswick by water, and the rate
will be much lowsr than when handled
by rail. If the water rate is SO much
lower, aud this ia not disputed, the
railroad, in order to compete with the
boats, would be compelled to meet this
rate and thus the saving would BE-
enormous.

ENTERT.4INM ENTS.
Hyperion Thenter.

Richard Mansfield in his great pro- duction of Henry V comes to the Hy- perion tonight The fact should be kept in mind that the curtain will rise at 7:45 o'clock. This does not mean or S:15. It means that the performance of "Henry V" will begin punctually at begin the overture some eight or ten minutes before. Every effort has been put forth and no expense spared to make the event IS perfect as possible. The theater furnishes MT. Mansfield with nothing but the bare walls of-the stage and the drop curtain. He brings nineteen elaborate scenic settings and several hundred trunks, crates and cases containing armor, costumes, fur niture, battle weapons and other heral- die and historic paraphernalia for the production. There are in the cast fifty two players, there is a choir of forty, ballet of thirty-four, and the total list of people appearing in the return of the king and his victorious army into London, which constitutes the entire fourth act numbers close to 400. But there is quite a corps of unseen people, trained and necessary in the Mansfield retinue. He brings thirty stage hands who, though unseen, contribute with indispensable efficiency to the splendor of the performance. No inexperienced workmen would do. The perfected re- suits demand skilled men to handle all the quantities of scenery and par aphernalia with no waste of time, no bunglng, which only comes with prac- tice. There are still good seats for sale. Prices $2, $1.50, S1, 75c.

Grand Opera House.

From Scotland Yard" bright and
 breezy melodrama in four acts, scored a signal success at the Grand opera
 house last evening, where it opened a three nights engagement. As the title suggests, it Is replete with crimes hair
 breadth escapes detective trails and
 clever captures, with an occasional kid-
 mapping episode or a murder to add to
 the excitement. For it's thrilling quail
 ties it far surpasses anything of the
 kind yet seen here this season. The
 plot is laid in and about London, and
 the penal institution that has made
 that city famous. All the scenery is
 carefully selected to display the locale
 of the different scenes, or situations, and
 they form a number of very striking stage pictures, noticeably so the prison gates, the robbery of the bullion car and the fight on the rooftop, in which latter scene the participants are seen to crash through skylight into a building, forming one of the cleverest pieces of stagecraft to be seen. The cast is a large and capable one, headed by Albert Hosmer, who plays the role of Cleve Ryley, the detective, and incl dentally the center of interest, in a for cible manner. His clever work left nothing to be desired. The part of Madeline, his wife, is cleverly interpret ed by Miss Harriet Ross With all the cunning villainy of the everyday gen. tleman-thief, Harry Hanscombe pre- scented the role of Eustace Lee, chief of a gang of burglars. Miss Nellie Granger, a sweet and clever young &C., tress, was well received as Bessie Tim mems. To all who enjoy the pure and simple sensational melodrama, with it's full quota of "thrillers," the play is recommended. It will be repeated to- night and tomorrow night and at the matinee tomorrow.
 There were many plays written of the Spanish American war, but being quickly thrown together and very poor ly written, they soon meet the fate of all imperfectly done things. The only play dealing with that subject is the pioneer of them all, Thomas E. Shea's great naval drama "The Man-o'- Wars Man." but this will porsitively be .he last season of this great play. not be- cause it is failing in drawing power, but because MT. Snea mas several new plays which are very strong, and for that Tea son only will he lay aside the "Man-o'- Wars Man. after this season."
 MT. Shea will present "The Man-o'- Wars Man" on Monday and Tuesday nights Rnd Wednesday matinee during his three nights engagement at the Grand opera house commencing Mon day, April 29. On Wednesday night "Dr. .Tekyl and MT. Hyde' will be the Seats now on sale. Regular prices.

| change says: James J. Corbett, erst- | while pugilist, and one-time champion
 of the world, was a revelation to last
 nights audience. The popular impress sion of q prize fighter is that he must l be bull-necked, must be unable to talk of anything more intellectual than up-
 per cuts, must expectorate between ev-
 cry three words, and in general look fe- rocious. Corbett was the opposite of these things. His monologue was de- livered in frank, unassuming way. He told funny stories of his experiences which he claimed were actual facts,
 and they had an originality about them
 exceedingly refreshing after the oft-re-
 peated standby jokes that one hears
 handed down from actor to actor. He
 was right up to date. Seats now on sale. Prices, bargain matinee, 25c, Soc;

 Great interest is being manifested in the coming Jefferson engagement at the Hyperion on Thursday next, April 30. During Mir. Jefferson's sixty years upon the stage he has delineated vast number of characters and in each and every one of them has proven himself the irreproachable master of strong and impressive expression. Now that he is in the sunset of his days and beyond necessity for toll, he acts simply to comply with popular demand, and to gratify the insatiatable craving for the stage which is the trait of all players Under such a condition as this MT. Jeff ferson can be pardoned if he chooses for his role in this city that to which his personal taste has a leaning, and he has chosen the great character of Bob Acres in "The Rivals" In this he has no equal. MT. Jefferson has habitually surrounded himself with competent people. He has always de- sired the best of support which is to be had. This season, as heretofore. he has ladies and gentlemen of profession al repute to aid him in the memorial work of fine art. Seats now on sale. Prices $1.5O, S1, 75c 50c, 25c.

A large and joVial audience braved the unpleasant weather last evening aud were well repaid for their visit by the enjoyment they obtained from the excellent show. The bill Is we'll select ed and is headed by a novelty from Europe in the act of the four Collins, @ dancing quartet of experts. Their work has the benefit of novelty as we'll as skill and is scoring a big hit. Boumann and Adelle, the comedy feature, are bright and spontaneous in their work which is full of witty lines and special ties. Two young women in the cast are also making a fine impression Belle Stewart and Florence Bindley. Clemart, an English ventriloquist, is clever and has an interesting array of dummies; Oscar Sisson and company in the comedy My Wife's Presents" have good act and 1t is well played. Others in the bill are Hughes and Anger, Kelly and Kent, and the vitagraph with all new views including a trip through South Africa.
