With Chas. Hanford in Don Caesar
pie the more delightful on that ac-
count, the period which it portrays is
definite and is as susceptible OF the
same accu. acy of treatment that rig
idly historical drama would command.
The feminine interest in Don Caesar
is very strong and the role OF Mari
tana is entrusted to Miss Marie Drof-
nah, whose work as Mr.. Hanford's
leading lady has already merited and
secured such warm approval. The
dramatists who gave this play to the
stage deftiy centralized the interest
in small number OF personages and

TO GO TO HIGH COURT
l.. AND N. WANTS FINAL DECISION
 ON GARNISHMENT.
Has Appealed Case of F. E. Deer from Alabama Supreme Court to United
 States Supreme Court

Using its last recourse to prevent ap-
 parent freakish operation of garnish- ment laws in Alabama and other States
 to it's detriment. the Louisville and
 Nashville Railroad. Company through Counsel George W. Jones, of Montgom- cry, appealed its case against F. E.. Deer from the Supreme Court of Ala
 bama to the United States Supreme Court yesterday.
 As Mir. Jones said yesterday, Its the
 principle we are after and not the amount involved in the case If the Supreme Court of the United States de- cides in favor of the railroad 1t wins
 but $25.25. Yet" said Counsel Jones, i've are taking advantage of this op- portunity to settle finally whether a
 railroad after paying a judgment on garnishment in one State will always have to pay the amount of the same
 judgment in another State to which an
 employe may flee and sue his em-
 ployer."
 This briefly tells the history of F. E. Deer. & former employe of the Louis-
 vile and Nashville Railroad on Flori- da division. A creditor of Deers in
 that State secured judgment in gar nishment proceedings against the wages of Deer. The Louisville and Nashville Railroad paid the Judgment,
 Deer. it is alleged. having fled the
 State of Florida and escaped service of the garnishment writ.
 The railroad, upon application of Deer for full wages. deducted the amount of the garnishment judgment which was s35.25. Deer sued the rail- road company in the City Court of Montgomery to recover the amount that was denied him. A judgment for the full amount was awarded the plaintiff
 on the ground that the court in Florida l did not have jurisdiction over the gar nishment case.
 Counsel Jones appealed the case to | the Alabama Supreme Court and 1t was affirmed. In view of the possibility. as conceived by Mir Jones. that fifty or an hundred thousand dollars may some time take the place of $25.25 involved in this case, it was thought worth while
 to fight out the ease in the United States Supreme Court.
 The appeal will be prosecuted on a writ of error.

4Jsck.. sveethenrt, at the BsyOu.

Mabel Page and company in the romantic comedy drama Jacks Sweet heart" pleased a large audience at the Bjou Theatre last night.
 The audience was most apprecIative and seemed to enjoy every moment of the performance. Miss Paige was especially graceful and easy in enact ing the part of a simple country girl and was dainty throughout. Her great popularity among Montgomery theatre goers occasioned a slight burst of ap- plause on her every entrance and her work went to show that she appre- ciated the cordiaHty of her reception.
 MT. Willard appeared in the opposite role to Miss Paige in his usual clever style and gave entire satisfaction.
 Edward B. Rogers and Miss Gertrude Claire did exceptionally good work in character parts and were responsible in a large degree for the success of the performance.
 The comedy work of Ralph Taylor was pleasing and the other members of the cast did well what was expected of them.-
 The vaudeville sketches of Reef and Cusick. Ralph Taylor, the moving phctures and the illustrated songs served to entertain during the acts and were enjoyed.
 The bill tonight win be 'The Great Bank Robbery" It is said to be one of the most pleasing plays of the com panys repertoire.

Mir. Wills In "A Son of Rest.v

Little Jimmie Rosen, Charles Udell, Nat Wills and a handsome, well dress ed chorus entertained a great audience at the Montgomery Theatre last night. These are singled out from the others in "A Son of Rest" because the others were not in the same class as Rosen, Udell. Wills and the chorus.
 MT. Wills is not mentioned last be- cause he was the least of the enter tainers. He is associated rather with Rosen, Udell and the. chorus because Rosen. Udell and the chorus deserve honorable mention along with their principal.
 It was a. fine example of Montgom ery's devotion to pure, nonsensical musical comedy, this great outpouring of the people to see Mir. Wills and his company. The piece was presented here last season by MT. Wills and his company and theater- goers knew what to expect. They were not disappoint- ed. except perhaps in one or two of the subordinate speaking parts, MT. Wills was just as funny--or was he funnier- as he was last year and Little Rosen seemed to be as good or better than Gabrielle the midget who did the sacred cat" on the first production of the piece in the South.
 The big audience could not get enough of Mir. Wills and his droll, and original tramp. Of course this tramp person is audaciously exaggerated, but Mir. Wills exaggerates it a shade better than any actor who has ever been seen here. His songs are rendered in a good voice and he catches the spirit of unctious lines. His parodies threw the audience into screams of insistent delight and he was recalled some eight or ten times.
 Rosen and Udell, the latter doing the "Rube" man of all work, arc right up to their company and they were great favorites. The length of MT. Burgess as Professor Fulton created merriment but he was i'll at ease and did not appear to understand the re- Quirements. This did not matter however as he looked funny and MT. Wills was on the stage with him most of the time.
 The chorus--especIally the women was all satisfying. There was every size, shape and style of woman in all sorts of fanciful garbs. They ran from one statuesque replica of Max inc Elliott down to dainty one who reminded us of Mary Marble The pictures drawn by this chorus of wo- men, first in the old Glory" song, then with MT. Wills "As General Four fIush;" in Roaming in the Gloam- ing" The Possum and the Coon," and Miss Linden's captivating song num- Der "Pansy. do You Love Mer were dazzling and displayed excellent train ing.
 The two scenes village in Connec- ticut and a drugstore were adequate but the advertisements so 1iberally painted about the stage in the last act did not enhance its effectiveness or in- crease the respect of the audience for the entertainment This indifference as to scenic detail is inexcusabIA.
