Social Notes and Personals,

Rehearsals for the comedy French Spoken Here are progressing satisfac- torily. the one last evening at the resi- dence of Mrs. John London being very successful. The announcement that. the play was to be presented by local talent created universal interest, and from now untll Saturday afternoon February 1, when the curtain at the Jefferson will go up, the event will be discussed with great interest. The announcement, too, that Miss Blake would be cast for the leading role has determined every one to see this clever Birmingham girl who is studying for the stage and who is at home for a vacation. Her appearance will lend a professional air to the play and will make the performance quite a notable one. MT. George Huntington Clark and MT. George Ward, who are so well known in stage roles, will give an added prestige, and indeed all the cast includes such charming and clever people that the play will be the dramatic and social success of the winter. It will have for a curtain raiser that amusing little sketch, My Uncle's Will"
 The play will be presented for the bene- fit of St. Mary son the Highlands, and under the immediate direction of the Ladies Aid Society, of which Mrs J. P. Graham is president. Mrs. Graham is in charge of the business details and it is needless to say that under her capable be a marked success. Then there is Mrs. L. G. Woodson and Mrs John Lon don, making a trio of charming society women whose interest in any undertaking would mean it's success. The rehearsals will be made very interesting, taking place as on the present plans in private drawingrooms. The cast, by the way, will include Miss Clara Cooke, the beau tiful Virginia girl who is spending the winter with her aunt, Mrs. Woodson, and MT Douglass Campbell of New York, who is staying with his aunt, Mrs. John London. From the winters debutante list, Miss Helen VanHoose has been se- lected to take part in the play, and every one knows that the role entrusted to her will be In capable hands. It must not be overlooked that Mrs. Clark is to be stage manager, as we'll as being in the cast and this will be another point upon which society may reassure itself that the details of the comedy will be all that the most critical audience would demand.
 Mrs. James Bruce Marson has returned from Louisville, where she has been spending several weeks with her mother, Mrs. Pope. Mrs Marson was the guest of honor at many entertainments during her visit to Louisville and was one of the most admired women at all of the events that have made the season there a brilliant one.
 Miss Nettie Anderson is in Pacalet, S. C., where she is staying with her sister, Mrs. Moore. The latter who will be re- membered here as Miss Leila Anderson will probably return to Birmingham to reside. It may not be generally known that her husband died quite recently,

Clemen Stewart and Manuel Romain used their. well trained voices advantageously. John H. King sang "Go Way Back and Sit Down" in such style as to be recalled again and again. Billy Van, who has been promi- nent in the minstrel world for years, told a few funny stories and sang some paro- dies which created great laughter. The second part was begun by the Rio Broth CTS They did some astonishing feats on rings and their exhibition of sheer strength were wonderful. McMahon and King appeared in a sketch consisting of singing and dancing which pleased im- Next came Billy Van in a His story about slow train the audience and was the hit of the evening. Van showed that he has lost none of his ability to please without assistance. The musical speciality of Carr, Mcdonald and Parshley was excel lent. Following this came the Zeb and Barrow trio consisting of bicycle rider. a tramp and a policeman. Their tricks on wheels of all description are nothing short of remarkable. To appreciate this feature one must see it. There is no doubt that Vests minstrels will receive the liberal patronage deserved as the show is good throughout"
