Fine Attractions Offered By Local houses--MOntgpmery Theatre
 Has ,"Wonderland," 'The
 "cIansman.~ and ''The Toast of the Town"

It is unusual even to Montgomery theatre goers, who are usually well sup piled with attractions during, the sea- son, to be offered a midwinter program In the middle of September. Yet this Is what Is offered at the two local play houses during the coming week--a List of four as good shows as are often pre- sented during even the height of the season.
 Every night during this week, except Friday Montgomerians will have the opportunity to spend the evening at the theatre, and each night is taken with an attraction which is said to be of the first class.
 Of the bookings for the next six days, three are at the Montgomery Theatre, and one at the Bijou, which opens its season tomorrow night. On this occasion, Bickel,g Wilson and Wrothe, we'll known in the vaudeville world. will give the initial performance of the season, appearing in Tom, Dick and Harry" a play written to suit their peculiar line of work. Their comedy Is said to be of the laughter compelling sort, which brings laugh with every other speech.
 There is a bit of plot connected with 1t, just enough to make the production hang together ,and throughout a num- Der of clever specialties are introduced along with good songs A large chorus of pretty and beautifully costumed girls is also promised by the press agent of the show, and the reputation of the principals in the company is such as to give promise of an entertainment or the first class.
 Tom, Dick and Harry" Is only the first of number of good shows which the Bijou promises for the winter. On the list of bookings are to be found many attractions which have received

In the second year of it's progress ''The Clansman" comes to the Mont gomery Theatre, Thursday night. This is an event that Is being eagerly await ed by those who applauded the play last year, and those who were unable to obtain seats because of the record breaking crowds ot every performance.
 ''The Clansman" has now definitely established itself Its hero Is a young Ku Klux who organizes the Klan in the State of South Carolina and smashes the carpetbag-negro government. With the beauty of It's Southern scenes, the romance and pathos of its love story, the Imaginable comedy of it's darkies. and above all, the splendid courage and of its principal character, The Clansman" entertains, thrills and pleases,

 The representative of '"The Clansman' who is now in this city. says that the play has been performed over six hum dred times, and that it has never led to any act of violence, nor has there been any evidence of increased ill-feel- ing between the two races as the re- suit of the play. It Is the earnest de- sire of the management that this good record shall not be tarnished, and pos- sible trouble makers will always be vigorously excluded.

 Undoubtedly Miss Remark has scored one Of the greatest successes of her career.

HAIR STOOD STRAIGHT
ON RANCHhlAN'S HEAD

Sacramento, Cal, April 26. Just
across the river from San Andreas, in
Calaveras county, Bear mountain rears
its giant form to the clouds and though
knowledge of this mountain has been
confined to more modern times it has
not escaped its legends and its mystic
isIn. Dark tales are told of the days
of Joaquin Murietta and his hidden
gold, guarded BY the spirits of MUIR
:dered victims. IS sl5s
n Now Jerry Holland of this place is
not given to superstition, but he came
near being a victim of the spirits of the
Canyons. and this is how it came about.
b Jerry has some stock that ranges on
Bear mountain. For some time he has
missed one Of his cows and started out
on horseback to look for the animal,
His search led him through many a
dark canyon and. along many a danger
Gus cliff till he had nearly reached the
summit without result. Then all at
once he heard and recognized the tinkle
of the bell worn by the COW he had lost.
) And SO Jerry followed the sound of
the bell. Through brush, down dark
canyons and up PERCEPTIONS cliffs he
urged his horse, ever toward the tink-
ling bell. At last, standing upon the
edge of bluff, he saw many feet be-
low him the body of the COW where ii
had fallen to its death.
The COW evidently had been dead for
a week, but still that bell kept up its
mysterious ringing: The hair on the
top of Jerry's head began to stand up.
Was it ghosts of the departed or was
it spirits of the mountain that caused
the bell to tolla Was this prosaic old
Bear mountain. after all, Monte Dia-
bio? s4s35 r.
q So, dismounti1g from his horse, he
climbed down the cliff toward the dead
COW and the mysterious bell. The ring
ing ceased as he approached and. en-
boldened by the silence, Jerry made a
grab for the bell, only to start back
in horror as his hands came in contact
with a gigantic nlephitis Americana, q
big skunk, which was calmly feeding
on the dead COW and incidentally ringing
the bell -, .ssSs31a. 8. lss 81 s,. e
