At the Biiou.

The Bijou Opera company made It's first appearance at the Bijou theatre last night to packed house, and the com pany made an excellent impression. It Is of the same high class as the Bijou Musi- cal Comedy company. and promises to be equally as popular as that organization.
 Nearly every principal of the company has a good voice, and Miss Hemmi Is pos sessed of one that is equal to the best heard at the Bijou this season. It is pe- culiarly sweet and has been well trained. The audience could not hear enough of her singing last night and the calls for her to come back were repeated often.
 The company bears many of the ear marks of Otis Harlan. The chorus Is thoroughly trained and its ensembles are superior to those seen here this year. The opening chorus was splendid and no organization could make a better inn pression for the very first number after the curtain rises. MT. Harlan has also chosen a shapely bevy of women and has used rare good judgment ir select ing the voices of both the male and fe- male portion of his chorus.
 The stage settings are the most elabo- rate of this season at the Bijou. The first and third scenes are both very pret- ty and in excellent taste. The costumes are handsome and well made. They are in keping with the entire production.
 As to the individuals Miss Mae Sailor is probably the favorite already. She is winsome little bit of humanity, and although suffering from a sprained ankle. she went on bravely and won her audi ence She Is well fitted for the part of Fanny, the companion of the American girl, the part played by Miss Memmi.
 William Carliss has the part of the Ameer and he plays it well. His come dy went smoothly and he has iudi- crous facial expression which is worth a laugh every few minutes. He was little indistinct in his pronunciation in his songs last night, probably due to not being used to the theatre. Harry Carter gets away with much comedy as Heeza- burd, the lord chancellor of the coun- try. His costumes are worthy of imita ton. J. w. Nickolds has little chance as the court jester. but was good John Wheeler, as the chief of the brigands, has an excellent voice. It is deep and well trained.
 Burrell BarDarette, who plays the part of the English captain, has the best of the male voices, and assisted by the chorus he sings some good songs. The most popular songs of the evening were "A Poster Maid,' sung by, Miss Sailor, and a topical song by the three comedi- ..r& --k1 x1 kI., high chamberlain.
 The first two acts are decidedly the best The third is slightly drawn out. and would be peter with little cut ting. It detained the people about fif- teen minutest too 1ata-

At the Jefferson.

Elmer P. Knowles and Beatrice Knowles, the well known hypnotists open- ed an engagement at the Jefferson last exceedingly ludlcrous performances ever witnessed in that play house. With a class of eighteen good subjects to work on Mr. and Mrs Knowles kept the audi ence shrieking with laughter for nearly two hours and those scientifically in cined had an excellent opportunity of studying the interesting subject of hyp- notism Out of the class of nineteen men MT. Knowles only lost one. He was un- able to get control of this young man and he was excused. The rest proved excel lent subjects and the fun waxed furious for the remainder of the evening. At the close of the performance a young man was put in a hypnotic state and will sleep for forty-eight hours. He will be on exhibition in a show window on Sec ond avenue today and tomorrow.
 This afternoon at o'clock an interest Knowles. He will leave a committee of citizens with the sleeping subject and another committee will go several blocks away accompanied by MT. Knowles and he will endeavor, at that distance to make the subject do anything that the committee may suggest to him. The com mittee left with the subject will remain to observe the result.
 Probably the most ridiculous of all the stunts done by the subjects while in a hypnotic state last night was the or ganization of brass band Brooms, tin sprinklers, wash tubs and other articles were given the performers and they marched around the stage playing Dix ie,'' some singing and some shouting while the crowd roared with laughter. Many of the subjects last night were well known young men of Birmingham and during the periods of rest enjoyed the performance as much as the spectators.

Washington. April 1s-The United States supreme court today dismissed the case of the state of Georgia versus the state of Tennessee and various copper com panies doing business at Ducktown, Tn the latter state.

Governor JeIks Improves.

The entire state will learn with much pleasure that Governor Jelks stood his trip to the west finely and that he is al- ready improving. In telegram to Pri- vate Secretary Jackson today he con veyed this good news and added that his appetite has already become so good that he was even having trouble in guarding against eating too much.
 This news will probably set to rest the reports sent out by sensational reporters to the effect that 1t was not expected that the governor would ever regain his health. His system was merely broken down by the severe tax of official duties, and tt was believed when he left the city that perfect rest for a few weeks would be all that was required for perfect restor- ation to health. The governor Is keeping in constant touch with his office while absent, and all who know the personnel of his office force feel that the interests of the state will in no way suffer.
