FOR FRIENDLESs CHRILDREN.
Rev. w. e. MumfOrd's Appeal in
Their Behalf.


Rev. W. E. Mumford, president and
founder of the Georgia Industrial Home
for Friendless Children, Macon, has is
sued the following letter to the public
Of the state:
ITO all people who toll this appeal
comes in behalf of the largest class of
defenseiess and hopeless humanity in the
state of Georgia, the young and in
nocent children OF destitute par
entage. In the goodness Of God,
near Macon, was founded on Feb. q,
1899. a home, school and farm on 200 acres
of land, with the specific hope of reach
ing and saving these little pieces Of hui
man driftwood off the ocean of life's mis-
cries in slums of city and country. The
Almighty God has given me the strength
of head and heart to labor night and day
these two years pleading the cause Of
these neglected ones. The home has
grown marvelously, and though starting
without money, little over two years
ago. and with no organized church or
society pledged to support it, we are now
sheltering, clothing, fielding and training
eighty children between the ages OF and
16 and they came from all over the state
of Georgia. The class Of children whose
benefit is contemplated in the establish
ment Of this home are the children with
out hope from anywhere else or other
source OF benevolence; hence, OF all the
causes Of Georgia, this Is the cause that
lacks assistance To you we come IN
behalf of this holy work, and ask you
to give to 1t the proceeds of one days
labor and we suggest Saturday. March 3d.
as that day. Are you not willing to
work one day to help us to rescue and
save these poor little defenseless suffer-
ers from poverty and crime? As to the
Importance OF our work and the truthful
ness Of statements herein we refer you
to any prominent man In Macon, to the
Governor Of Georgia. to Hon G.. r. Glenn.
s S. c., to p. D. Pollock, president Of
Mercer University, and to Hon. Bridges
Smith, Mayor of Macon.
''If you respond to this appeal you may
send us the proceeds of your days work
March 800 by postofflce order or by check
on your local bank, or II you be citizen
of Macon you may deposit the amount
with the Commercial and Savings Bank
on Second street, to credit Of Georgia
Industrial Home
1--WE thank you in advance for your no.
BILE deed in your willingness 10 give one
day - this cause"

AT THE THEATER.

The sale of seats for Walker White
sides. engagement Saturday matinee and
night opened yesterday morning Mr..
Whiteside is no stranger to Savannah
theater-goers, but this is the first time he
has been seen in romantic drama, Some
three years ago it was suggested that
Mr.. Whiteside try his fortune in the field
OF romance, giving up his extensive roper
toire of classic plays, with the possible
exception of Hamlet" 1t must be ad-
mitted that Mr.. Whiteside is an actor
possessed of exceptional talents, fire, vi
rility, earnestness and voice which, as
has been said should unlock the door of
fortune to him, and it seemed a pity that
he should strut the Olympian nights, dis
rupting his vitals, when the day for big
heroic5 had gone out.
Mr.. Whiteside considered carefully the
advice given him and at once set about
making material changes in his method
and repertoire. He laid aside his "Riche-
lieu," "Shylock," Richard" and "Othel-
To- and commenced producing romantic
plays. 1t was a fortunate move, for 1t
is said that he has met with most fiat
tering artistic and financial success. His
first effort in the romantic line was three
years ago, when he produced THE Red
Cockade." This season he introduced
Heart and Sword" The play was re-
ceived by press and public with such great
enthusiasm that Mr.. Whiteside concluded
10 give this play alone the balance of
the season, discarding both Hamlet" and
Eugene Aram," which he had included
in his arrangement of plays.
The recent disastrous fire at the Coates
Opera House, Kansas City, swept away
all their productions, including costumes
and other effects.
Shipman Bros, who have the manage
ment of Mr.. Whiteside for a term of
years. have supplied him with an entirely
new aud complete production for Heart
and Swcrd.'

etitution says Of the company's opening
performance in Atlanta:
1.-THE Crescent Stock Company opened

with a strong and good plot, and In the
hands of the Crescent Stock Company,
Pleasing performance was givtn.

given a reception on his first entrance
and was frequently appiauded during the

Last evening I saw her In a box at "A

the gown, save that the yoke, which was in
black lace, was decorated with silk but

had caught an immense scarf Of embroi-
