Private Car of Faust Family.

RTtVMIe -CHH OI IT dusk IT FahnASs
 One of the most interesting Pull" man cars of today is the car 'Colum- bus," owned by Ted E. Faust the min strel magnate, and in which he and his noted family travel.
 One end of the car Is the Press Parlor;" where newspaper men are en- tertained. The other end is the gym nasium," where the Faust family of acrobats take daily exercise.
 Mrs. Faust and her daughter, Miss Ruby, are authority on physical cul- ture, and in cities where there are colleges generally lecture to the phy- sical culture classes.
 The middle section of the Pullman Is the Kindergarten" Here the Faust family have one of the finest libraries in the world. Here also the four Faust children go to school four hours each day. The younger of them. Master Ray, is the smallest acrobat ever born to live. Critics say: He scarcely makes shadow in the sun shine"
 Mir Faust has.sengaged and carries on the car Prof. De Sotel of France. to instruct the children. So 1t can be seen the Faust children are being ed- ucated while going mile per minute. They are feature with the Faust Minstrels that play at the Bijou Fri day and Saturday.

Ted Faust. MinstreIs.

Ted E. Faust Minstrels come to the Bijou Theatre for two nights. Fri day and Saturday, November Il and 12 with family matinee Saturday espe- cially arranged for ladies and children.
 Jake Wells, owner, and manager of the Bijou, is known as a man of his word. He comes right out and guar antees the Faust Minstrels as clean, wholesome, -class--the best min strels ever in Montgomery.
 The. press of the country Is unani- nous in its praise.
 The Faust Minstrels are conceded to be better than some of the older shows. the Faust Minstrels last season broke all record as to attendance, receipts, and criticisms. They never missed a performance. and thsre was not one adverse criticism. Their singers, cost umes and paraphernaiia are new, novel and original. It is a clean, classic. complete exhibition, a superb spectacu- lar minstrel show. g
 The first part is up to the demands of the public. and is entitled. "In old Mexico" In the "Olio'' are tne famous Faust family of nine Austra- Han acrobats. who for five seasons were with Al G. Field one of the great est features Mr. Field ever had "Boissette Troupe" of French panto- mimists. the Herald Square Quartet, the Brothers Stidolph. German musical artists, Daily and Kelso, The Boys With the Tangled Feet" and Bobby De Rue in monologue.
 The vocal director of the Faust Minstrels is Glen De Bruin. the operatic baritone. He has surrounded himself with an international congress of singers that are called the Ted E. Faust choir Side by side with Glen De Bruin stands William R. Rattle the Southern tenor. He is a favorite in all musi- cal circles.
 Special attention is called to the family matinee Saturday. The ladies and children will be interested in the Faust family. made up of gentlemen, ladies and wee bits of children.

aThe Silver Slipper.p

Again John c. Fishers stupendous musical production The Silver Slip per-" which won for itself the repu- tation of being the largest and most extravagant musical attraction ever presented in this city, plays an en- gagement at the Montgomery Thea ire on next Friday evening.
 So much new material has been add ed to this years presentation that 1t is entitled the second edition" The cast is claimed to be the best ever
 seen in the play the girls the pret-
 ttest the gowns and costumes the
 most extravagant, the scenic and light effects bewildering, the orchestra sec
 ond to none, and the English girls who thrilled us with last years danc- ing are the features which have made 1 this attraction prominent. In popu- larity and business 1t has not been excelled by even the best known mus. ical comedy ever written, "Floro- dora" which was the craze for sev- | eral seasons.
 The company as usual travels by | special trains, furnishing their own | music by a specially engaged orehes-
 tra of twelve players.
 The principals in the cast twill in-
 clude Snitz Edwards. Beatrice Golden, | Harry Burcher. Lora Leib, Virginia
 Palmer. Fred Freeman. Gertrude Doug
 las, Gene Cole and May Williams.

 The play takes its name from the last act of the piece. which represents to the life the interior of Grace Church, illuminated at night for a wedding ceremony. A vested choir oi boys are introduced here, which lends an atmosphere of remarkable real. ism.
 The play is produced under the per sonai supervision of Sullivan. Harri. and Woods, and the scenic effects ara on an unusually elaborate scale.

.Quincy Adams Sawyer, Coming.

drama as thoroughly Wnolesome TUT that is supposed to be one of it's strong points. but stop and think of most rural plays that you have seen. Didn't they all, with hardly an ex- ,ceptfon, contain an element that you wished had been left out because 1t marfed the sweetness and purity of the country atmosphere?
 There Is nothing of this kind In Quincy Adams Sawyer to wish re- moved. No wronged girl wandering around in the snow looking for her wedding certificate. There Is snow storm in the play and rousing, good
 old New England snowstorm 1t is, too
 but it does not fall on a suffering Wo-
 man or an erran boy.
 In fact, there is very little In the dramatization of the popular New
 England story to cause tears or signs.
 The only pathos lies in few genuine sentimental passages between the title hero and Alice the blind girl. The play Is built on comedy lines mainly and the ludicrous sayings and doings of the folks at Mason's Corner keep an audience in continuous roar.
 Another thing most rural plays con- ! tain, characters that are caricature of country types and while they amust they do not satisfy. In Quincy Adam: Sawyer" the characters are drawn SC near to life that 1t requires an enor | to become convinced that they are no real the remarkable realistic scener! I adding to the illusion.
 l The play with all this elaborate equil ment will be seen here in December.

the adapted French farces are all right In their way. We should welcome them because they help to give vari-
 ety to the stage and are useful mooels for the coming American playwright. but 1t seems to me that they nave re- ceived too much attention from our producing managers in view or the fact that we have over here great country simply reeking with material all ready to be transplanted to the stage. Such men as James A. Herne. William Gillette. Charles H. Hoye. Bronson Howard. Augustus Thomas Denman Thompson and. indirectly. Mark Twain, are the ones who have done the great work for the American stage, because they have depicted our home life in such a manner as to build up our self-respect and inciden- tally keep us in better hunor. If can trail along respectfully in such mo- table company. my ambition will be satisfied. For the present. however, shall not undertake any plays of se- rious purpose. and until know more about the technique of the Srama l shall not attempt any pieces depending upon a close and consecutive dramatic interest. There seems to be room on our stage for plays dealing very large- ly with familiar character types"

concede that even in the best and high

table and benevolent are sometimes used

vanity, or are set on foot to satisfy tho
whim and caprice of the restless rich.
Public appropriations and private
charity are mindful OF men and women

girls ana Dogs arc compasslonately cared
