Mr.. E. T. Ziegler, who will have
charge of the night performances that
are to be feature of the Fair, return
ed yesterday from Jacksonville, where
he had a talk with the Fair manage
ment relative to presenting his show
there. He invited the Jacksonville gen.
tlemen to visit the Savannah Fair to
see what sort of an exhibition he will
give. having faith enough in the excel
lence of the attractions he will show
here to lead him to believe that the
visitors will ask nothing save to close
with him at once.
The following dispatch from Buffalo
to the Cincinnati Enquirer shows
something of the character and import
ance of the A. L. Due Fireworks Com
pany. which will give the fireworks ex-
hibition that will be part of each of the
night attractions:
THE A. L. Due Fireworks Company
of Cincinnati, o., have just received
through the director general at the
Pan-Amercan Exposition, the official
award for grand pyrotechnical displays
or fireworks for account of the Ex-
position, and are already making &C.
tive preparation for their special dis
play-Ohio Day-July IS, on which oc-
casion 1t is heir intention to make
such an exhibition as will be the ad-
vent of the Exposition, especially in
honor of the state. and it will be a
source of the greatest satisfaction, not
only to the Ohio visitors, but all who
may be fortunate in witnessing it.
The splendid productions. ability
and facilities of this well-known con-
Germ are illustrated in the fact that
they have furnished all the pyrotech-
nical features for three successive Ex-
positions-the Tennessee Centennial
Exposition, 1897; the Trans Mississippi
Exposition. 1898; the Pan American
Exposition, 1901"

KEITH'S NEW THEATRE.

rally enhanced by the addition, as

OF the best and most popular monolog-

laughter enough To answer for a whole

consider the most entertaining sketch yet

dance OF action and appeals successfully
for laughter at the end OF almost every
line; and Mrs. Mobiles Is afforded especial
ly favorable opportunities. Both she and
Mr.. Mobiles are particularly successful In
extracting abe utmost possibilities from
every humorous situation and every
speech; and the sketch met the fullest
requirements OF It's purpose.

difficulty, the comedy element is really
diverting, and the act as a whole is much
the best of its kind yet seen here. Mon

dy assistant who provokes no little
laughter, proved himself one OF the
'slickest" and neatest I'm his line, de-
