HENRY MILLER.


 When the curtain rises on 'D'Arcy of the Guards" Henry Miller's new play, on Saturday evening at Polls, there will be nothing seen which is furnished by the theater. Not only the scenery, but every bit of furni- ture and stage furnishings will be brought by Mir Miller for this produc- tion. The scene being laid i'll Revolu- tionary times, it would be quite impos- sible to give it that verisimilitude for which Mir Miller's productions have all ways been famed, without having ev- erything made especially for the play. Theaters are seldom fitted out with an- tique furniture and hangings, and less seldom than otherwise with colonial goods. Mir Millers scenery, costumes and stage fittings are all made from designs by H. A. Ogden. The play has attracted the attention of the critics and won their appreciation as the best of any that Mir Miller has yet starred in, not even excepting ''Heartsease," in which he formerly won such great fla vor ill Waterbury. The sale of seats opens tomorrow morning at 25, 90, 75 cents, $1 and S1.50.

"THE OLD HOMESTEAD. !.


 Denman Thompson in ''The Old Homestead'' Monday evening at Polls. THE NEW VAUDEVILLE SCHEME.
 Much interest has been aroused by the announcement that beginning next Monday, the Jacques will be devoted exclusively to vaudeville under the per sonal direction of MT Poli. The knowl- edge of the extraordinary success achieved by MT Poli in his New Haven theater suggests great expectations of what the local public will be treated to under the new regime. since the pol icy to be pursued here will be the same in all respects as in New Haven. Mat inees will be given every day, Mondaya included. and for these ladies will be charged only 10 cents to any part of the theater except the boxes. In the evening 10, 20 and 30 cents will be the scale, remaining always the same, no matter how exceptional may be the attractions offered. The opening bill, which will, perhaps, be announced to- morrow, will be genuine surprise Watch for it.

Straight Ahead.

Don't give it up; keep straight ahead,
 The highways just before you; The only thing you Il have to dread
 Is clouds that gather O CT you And they, you'll find out by and by, Don't cover all the sky. Lost and discouraged? Oh, dear. no!
 The very path you've travelled Has been, by folks who'ye sighed just so
 Time and again unraveled; And (neyer doubt it, heroes,) you Will comeIout safely, too. Keep on, and follow rising groundI
 The woods seem dark and lonely; But freedoms certain to be found,
 And clearer skies, if only One has purpose strong in mind, And never looks behind. Frank Walcott Hut. in Farm Journal.

ASSAULTED AND ROBBED.
Negro Woman Knocked Down with
Pistol and $50 Taken.

Negro Woman Knocked Down with
Pistol and $40 Taken.
Ivey Ponder, mulatto woman, residing
at No. 541 Price street. was assaulted and
robbed in her house yesterday afternoon,
by a negro man named Tom Hamilton
The woman was struck in the head with
a pistol and an ugly wound had to be
treated by DR.. W. E. Norton. The blow
rendered her unconscious for an hour, but
there was no fracture of the skull.
The Ponder woman says that she has
known Hamilton for some time, and has
been on very friendly terms with him.
Yesterday when he asked her to change
a twenty-dollar bill she readily agreed,
and went to her room to get the money.
The woman says that Hamilton accom-
penied her, and that when she had taken
four $ bills from her pocket-book she
handed them to him.
According to her story to the police.
Hamilton backed away, and when she
took hold of him, and asked for the
money, he grabbed pistol from a table
and struck her a vicious blow across the
head. She fell to the floor, and Hamilton
escaped with the pistol and money. An
other woman was in the room at the
time OF the assault, but was unable to
stop the armed robber. The police had
been unable to locate Hamilton up to an
early hour this morning.

A BIsHoP-GENERAL,s FLAG.
Was That Found by Capt. J. r
White.

Capt. NJ. r. Tunno writes the follow
ing letter to Capt. ]. p. White anent the
Confederate flag, a notice of which APP
peared in the Morning News:
Pineora, Ca, June 10. 19O1.-My Dear
Mr.. White: The notice in the Morning
News in regard to the flag my son car
ried down, is not altogether right. Sew
eral flags were sent to Gen. Polk at Co
lumbus, Ky, and were turned over to
me as ordnance officer at the time. The
papers, books and belongings of the Of
flee 1 carried to Humboldt, Tenn, upon
the evacuation of Columbus; then after
the retreat from Corinth to Columbus,
Miss. These flags l do not know who
sent; some were issued at Columbus. but
tour of them l kept l do not recall
what the flag sent was intended for. /
know that some were issued to regiments
at Columbus, but this one was never
called for. The others 1 have are almost
too rotten to hold together. Yours truly,
NJ. r. Tunno.
The flag was doubtless intended for
the division flag of Mai. Gen. Leonidas
Polk, and was appropriate in it's design
or blue field and red
cross, Gen. Polk was the Epis-
copal Bishop of Louisiana when he en-
tered the Confederate army. Whether it
was ever used as a division flag is a ques-
ticn which doubtless some of the sur
vivors of that, Folks division, can ans
Wer.
Cleburne's division used a division flag,
a blue field with a white moon in the
center. which was the crest of the coat
of arms of the Cleburne family. The First
and Fifty-fourth Georgia Regiments
Qrom this city, were a part of Cleburne' S
division, and their division battle flags are
still intact. The Savannah Cadets will
carry the Fifty-fourth Regiments flag
in anniversary parades.
The flag found by Capt White will be
placed on exhibition at Theus Bros.

MANY CASES WERE TRIED.
Weekly Criminal Session of City
Court Kept Judge Busy.

Weekly Criminal Session of City
Court Kept Judge Busy.
There was trouble for a large number
of people in the City Court yesterday
morning, and in most cases it was only
the beginning. For those who suffered
most acutely i'm the court room there will
be other trouble, on the chain-gang of the
county, for the next several months.
Judge Norwood was holding the weekly
criminal session for the trial of INSIDE
meanor cases. OF these there was a very
large collection, in which the defendants
were charged with all sorts of minor Of
lenses, from fighting and rowing in the
streets to stealing property of considera-
BILE value.
Sam Green was sentenced to pay a fine
of $50 and costs or serve twelve months
on the gang. Green had stolen lot of
the personal belongings OF Mr.. Jake Dub
from the Screven House, including a
handsome pipe, some underwear, a pair of
bicycle breeches and sweater.
Eddie Davis was given a sentence to
serve eleven months on the chain-gang
for obtaining goods under false pretenses.
The defendant had represented to Nicho-
las Lang. the Barnard street grocer that
he was making purchases for Mrs Irene
Anderson. and on the strength of this rep
resentation had been given some grocer
les. II turned out that the purchases Da-
Wis had been making were for his own use
and benefit and tina: he had no authority
to use Mrs. Anderson's name. and he was
arrested. Yesterday he was tried. convict
ed and sentenced.
There were many other defendants and
the time of the court until the recess for
dinner was consumed in their trial There
were few cases IN which the court decided
that the defendants were not guilty and
most of them were sent to the gang for
good long terms.

DRS. GOT TOGETHER
DIR. KELLER CALLED ON DIR. BRUN-
NER ABOUT SMALLPOX.
ADVICE AND VACCINE VIRUS
GIVEN TO THE COUNTY PHYSICIAN
by HEALTH OFFICER.

visit Was Paid the Health officer of
the City by the County Physician
Yesterday Morning-They Talked
over the Situ0tiOn-COunty Had no
Vaccine on Hand-Chairman Dale
Expected to Get Some From At
Ianta-Dr. Brunner and Or. Keller
May Take "A Trip Together to Look
In SmaII-pox-HeaIth Officer Feels
That His Duty Extends to the
Country Districts.
Dr. w. r. Drummer, health officer of
Savannah, and DIR. j. G. Keller, county
physician had a conference yesterday
morning over the sanitary conditions in
the county, beyond the city's jurisdiction
The conference was in the office of the
health officer at the City Exchange. Dr.
Keller called on DR.. Drummer and asked
his aid and advice in the lettering of con-
ditions in the county.
Dr. Drummer told the county physician
of some of the trips he had made into
the country districts and something about
the smallpox situation as he had learn
ed it.
DR.. Keller seemed to appreciate the in
formation and desiring to proceed with
his work of preventing the spread of the
disease, he secured a quantity of vaccine
virus from DIR. Drummer.
The county's supply of the virus had
run out. DIR. Keller needed some imme-
dately to proceed with his efforts for
the relief OF the smallpox situation in
the county. He expects some from Allan
ia soon, as he said that Chairman j. J.
Dale of the County Commissioners, had
said that he would order some from the
Governor. 1T is questionable, however, as
TO whether he will get any from that
source, as the last that were sent from
Atlanta was a batch of 800 points, and
at that time the Governor wrote that
they We're the last he could send. The city
gets its points from Washington, paying
IS a hundred, and it is probable that the
county, if it prosecutes a war against
smallpox, will have to go to that city
or elsewhere than Atlanta for the best.
DR.. Drummer and DR.. Keller will prob
ably take a trip into the country together
to look up cases and treat and isolate
them. The vaccine preventive will also
be employed, If the campaign against
smallpox, that seems to have been I'M
dertaken, is prosecuted. The tender of
his aid by Dr. Drummer was received
with thanks by DR.. Keller, and It would
seem that the health officer and the coun-
ty physician are ready to act in harmony
for the suppression OF the disorder that
is said to have gained quite a hold upon
the colored people of some of the coun-
try districts.
DR.. Drummer. he said felt Ii incumbent
upon him as health officer of the city to
afford the county physician what aid he
could in coping with such a condition of
affairs as prevails. II smallpox is prev
alent in the country districts, the health
of the city is threatened, and it, there
fore. becomes the duty of the health OFF,
Ger to go beyond the bounds of the city's
Jurisdiction. if he can to get at the seat
of the impending trouble.
