WELLS QUITS CASINO
PLAYHOUSE WILL BE MANAGED
 BY TRACTION COMPANY.
Wells Found His Montgomsry ven- ture Was Not Making Money.
 Wells's Shows Will Con- "iena9I tinue at Casino.

With the close of the bill of this week at the Picketts Spring Casino. Jake Wells releases the management of the play house, which will be assumed by the Montgomery Traction Company.
 The employees of Mir. Wells. who have been managing the Casino will leave Montgomery, and the house will be oper- ters. general manager of the Traction Company.
 The playhouse Is the property of the Railway Company, and MT. Wells will continue to furnish the attractions, but his actual management of affairs at Pick ett's Spring ceases.
 The Atlanta theatrical manager opened his Montgomery Casino in early June. His attractions have all been high class. but it seems that Montgomery theater- goers have not taken kindly to park dra- matics. While for the past two weeks the houses have been much larger than when the house first opened. it is under stood that 1t has not been a paying bus mess for MT. Wells. He personally vis- ited Montgomery. and the playhouse last week and enquired closely into affairs. MT. Wells ascribes the failure of his shows to make money in Montgomery to the car service of the Traction Company. which the theatrical people say is entirely in- adequate and i'll arranged.
 The house will continue to play Wells attractions.
 Last night on account of the indictment weather. and the fall down of the cars, q small audience saw an excellent perform ance of "A Turkish Texan" Lights at the Casino went out about the time the play was scheduled to begin and did not get to working before 9 o'clock, when the play was produced in it's entirety.
 The company will close it's engagement here to-day with two performances. The matinee will be given at 3:30 o'clock.
