GAY eoLDsTEIN HERE TONIGHT.
A Capital Play, Brimful of Laughable
Scenes

"The Gay Mr.. Goldstein" a splendid
cnmedy production in which appear
three stage celebrities, George @.
Boniface, T. ). Keogh and Miss Mary
Hampton, each one brilliant theatre
cal star, will be seen in Americas to-
night. Authors treating the Hebrew
character have always used the igno-
rant type, and for this reason many
may have the idea that "The Gay MIR,
Goldstein is of the exaggerated. But
one cannot harmonic this with the
players who assume the different roles.
However, while it is a stage picture
of the humorous Hebrew, it does not
have to be of the type that is depicted
so much in musical comedies and va
rlety farce, This Mr.. Goldsteln,
while possessing the dialect and conf
cal propensities in business and in
pleasure, is in an atmosphere of re-
fined surroundings in which the au-
thor has seen many possibilities for
laughable scenes and happenings.

Is HOUSES IN ASHES
AS RESULT OF FIRE.
Little City of Richland Was Almost
Obliterated.
LOSS REACHES LARGE FIGURE
Americas Company Rendered Help In
Stopping fire-0nlJ One Small
Business Block Remains Estimated
Loss 1925, OOU to $3.50, 900.

1t was weary set of fire fighters
that retured to Americas at 4 O'Clock
yesterday morning after having bat
tied for hours at Richland with the
most destructive fire known in south
western Georgia in years, and one that
wellniahs obliterated the little town
from the map.
Yesterdays Times Recorder told OF
the conhsgration, which started there
the afternoon previous, and of the dis
patch OF fire engine and squad from
Americus by special train.
Valuable aid was rendered by the
firemen from Americus.
Upon larrival at Rlchland it was
found that the water supply was about
exhausted, that in the railroad tank
being all that was left. This was
turned into the locomotive tender Of
the special train carrying the Americus
party.
The fire engine, mounted on q fiat
car, then took suction from the engine
tender, and soon had o stream playing
upon the angry flames.
About midnight the fire had pretty
well exhausted itself.
In all, twenty-five business houses
went up in smoke. OF these sixteen
were wooden stores and nine brick,
many Of the latter being handsome
two"Btory structures, recently built.
The Nicholson warehouse, where the
fire started, was likewise brick build
ing.
The loss is roughly estimated at 1925,
600, and may reach $4,000. Their Q
was but little insurance and the loss,
therefore, will be terrible one to the
plucky little town of Richland.
The only buildings remaining are
three or four about the hotel.
In storing bale of cotton in the
rear of the warehouse a negro truck
man ran over match. The bale was
ignited, and SO rapidly did the fire
spread that the men in the warehouse
almost suffocated ere they escaped.
There was not even time to save the
warehouse books.
About 400 bales of cotton were lost.
OF these, sixty bales belonged to Mr..
Perkins, who was storing his crop. It
Is said that he had no insurance, los
ing every bale of his cotton.
The sixteen frame stores burned were
on the south side of the railroad, and
the nine brick ones on the north side.
| Thousands of dollars in stock were
damaged by removalf from the threaten
ed buildings. Goods were piled in the
streets Unfortunately, and remained
there yesterday morning, there being
no stores in which they could be plRc-
ed, even temporarily, all having been
lost.
OF the buriness section of Richland,
the Aston block and the bank block
alone escaped the flames.

Query Adderton, charged with the

While the coroner's jury found the
killing to be Unsuitable homicide, in
their opinion, q warrant charging muir
der has been taken and was still OF
force Yesterday. It is not known
what steps the prosecution proposes
taking, though this may be given out
today.
If is understood that Judge J. A,

It was stated yesterday that the
wound In Mr.. Adderton's neck was
doing very well, and hope was sx-
pressed that he would soon be upon
the road to recovery. He is still CEN

So far as can be ascertained, there
have been no further developments
relative to this deplorable tragedy.

says County Physician Geo. W. Soroggs
of Hail Comfy, Ga. "Being a physi-

to give the best results. If the food
you eat remains undIgested in your
stomach it decays there and poisons the

Murder.

Henry Brooks, a dudish Americas
negro who on the night of February
10Th killed Policeman Fender in Sa-
vannsh and was sentenced to hang,
will get his deserts at a ropes end
shortly. Brooks was tried in March
last and he was sentenced to hang.
His plea was an alibi, but it didn't
work. On March % he was sentenced
to hang by Judge Falligant. His at
torneys, however, made a motion for q
new tria, which was refused, and the
case was taken to the supreme court
on bill of exceptions. He will be
arraigned in court at the December
term and resentenced to hang.
