MISSILES INSTEAD OF APPLAUSE.
Reception Accorded A Breezy Time" Company
in Norfolk

"A Breezy Time" will not appear at
the Academy next week, though it was
booked for one appearance.
Manager Rivers heard of rather
breezy reception that the company re-
ceived in Norfolk Christmas day, and
he cancelled the attraction by wire. The
following telegram in yesterdays Balti-
more Herald gives some idea Of the
warm reception accorded the Breezy
Time" company in Norfolk:
There was a scene of wild disorder
at the Academy of Music this afternoon,
when the audience became unmanage-
able and Kissed and bombarded the play
ers of "A Breezy Time" company. The
show undoubtedly was the worst ever
seen on the local stage, and the audience
bent on having fun, drowned the voices
of theactors, who proceeded with their
lines until missiles came flying upon the
stage.
THE theater was a bedlam when the
stage manager rang down the curtain
before the play was over. Such a scene
has never been witnessed in Norfolk
theater The company gave another
performance tonight in the face of much
difficulty, the SCIENCES OF the afternoon
being practically repeated. No lone was
injured"

CHRISTMAS TREE SPREAD
AT THE SOLDIERS home.
D. H. Hill Chapter Of the Children Of the Con
federacy Make Happy Old
Veterans

Il am sixty-four years old and this is
the first Santa Claus that has ever visited
me-
Such was the remark of one of the
seventy-nine old veterans at the Sol
eiers' Home yesterday afternoon after the
d. H. Hill Chapter of the Children of the
Confederacy had shaken well laden
Christmas tree. 1t was an expression
typical Of the many that came from the
veterans of the Home. who were de-
lighted and pleased with the remem-
brances of the children of their fellow
comrades in arms. =
No feature of the Christmas festivities
has been more pleasurable and enjoyable
than the Christmas tree that greeted the
old veterans at the Home yesterday. The
sixty-five members of the ID. H. Hill
Chapter Of the Children of the Confed-
eracy went out in ambulances furnished
by Upchurch & Holder to give cheer and
comfort to the veterans.
The Christmas tree was heavy with
presents for the old veterans, each one
of whom received a pair of socks laden
with fruits, candy, nuts and things that
were calculated to tickle the fancy Of the
heroes at the Home. And tickled they
were. There were pipes, tobacco and the
like that the young people had spent
much time getting together. To them it
was a labor of love.
Mr.. Will Brown was the Santa Claus
and his appearance in snowy robes was
the occasion of much merriment among
the old soldiers. His witticisms and
clever songs carried cheer to the hearts
of the veterans, who know no home. The
services were opened with prayer by the
Rev. Dr.. M. M. Marshall.
The Chapter was under the command
of Mrs. George Terrell, Mrs d. H. HILL
Mrs. Armistead Jones and Mrs. p. E.
Hines.
Mrs. ID. H. Hill presented Bibles to the
Hcme and Mrs. Armistead Jones pre-
scented to the l. OBJ. Branch Library
twelve volumes of the history of the
North Carolina troops.

more Saturday evening about 10 o'clock
in which Judge Thomas a. Jones sus-
tanned painful injuries.
The members of the All Souls choir
were repairing to Ashevlle after their
regular Saturday evenings practice
and three members, Mrs Evans, Miss
Ellen Penland and Judge Jones' were
seated on the back seat of the carriage
which was to bring them back to the
city.
The driver seemed not thoroughly
awake and had no control over the
horses, who had become frisky in the
cold. Just as Judge Jones had gotten
seated in the carriage, the horses began
plunging. Judge Zones, seeing the
driver was not paying them proper at
tention, attempted to climb over the
middle of the carriage that he might
catch the lines, when the horses made
sudden swerve, throwing him from
the vehicle.
In the fall Judge Jones hit the
ground violently, striking his head be-
hind the right ear.
The horses were stopped before they
could do further damage.
Judge Jones was picked up uncon-
scous and carried to the church, where
DIR. Holmes was summoned. About
