HON. CLIFFORD LANIER
 TO SPEAK AT MACON
Ills Address y1l Be Before sydney Lanier Chapter of U. ID. c.

His Address ynl Be Before sydney f Lanaer Chapter of u. D. c.
 Hon. Clifford Lzhier has acce6ted an invitation to deliver an address before the Sidney Lanier Chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy, of Ma con. Ga, on December 14, and his com ing is being eagerly waited for in this, the, city of his nativity. as well as that of his much loved and admired brother, Sidney Lanier.
 In going to Macon. Mir. Lanier visits again the scenes of his childhood. It was here that he and his brother spent their early days, and 1t was heiA that Sydney Lanier. the sweet singer of the South, spent much of his time in man. hood.
 Mir. Lanier has been requested to speak concerning various phases of the. life and work of his brother, and to present also some of his own thoughts on the art and function of poetry. He and his brother were strongly attached to each other, serv- ing for time together during the war as scouts in Milligan's Corps in Vir- ginfa, and frequently collaborating fin their literary work, as seen in "A Sea- shore Crave" "The Power of Prayer" or "The First Steamboat Up the Ala bama." and Uncle Jim.s Baptist Re vival Hymn" ,a sassI k
 Mr. Lanler has made Montgomery his home by adoption, residing here since the war. He is universally loved and esteemed. The address will be deliver ed in the chapel at historic Wesleyan Female College, the oldest college for females exclusively in the world.

Cyr,I Scott in .srhe Prince Chap' Com-

Cyril Scott in ssrhe Prince Chap" Com- ing.
 Interest in the visit Of Ine Prince Chap" to Montgomery next WednesTay @ 'sfsrend >Ffn Increased by the/ fact that sdespite the prejudice Of the critics in Ernla1,d and entirely different. to the cxnerience of many American lproduc- fions in London, 'The Prince Chap" scored over 150 performances at Sir Charles wyndham's Criterion Theatre simultaneously with it's brilliant revi- val in New York, where 1t was seen 209 times.
 It must be in the development that the story undoubtedly strikes the true chord of human interest and takes hold of the heart. The tears and the laughter must be of the right quality to attract so strongly. The story, written by Edward Peple in novel form. is not the character Cyril Scott created. He had his own con' ception of the part and argued the matter strongly with the author, win ming his point in every particular. with the result that "The Prince Chap IS no less human and vastly more inter- esting, fellow whom everybody seems to love even after the curtain falls. After performance discussions have done much for the growing popu. iarity of "The Prince Chap" While the child interest is very strong, 1t is not essentially a child play, but from the general verdict play for all classes. The novelty of three indivi duals being required for the leading female role of Claudia should prove its claim or being a real novelty, assisting in mak- ing "The Prince Chap" the success H Is said to be.
 In MT. scott's support is company peculiarly suited to the requirements of the piece, the best of the originals being retained with the object Of im- proving wherever possible the presen- .ation of this popular play.

Our School For ConsuIs.

No more green consuls are to be sent abroad to represent America if the plans of the state department which have just been put into practice re- alize expectations. Ever since the es- tablishment of the consular service it has been customary to allow newly appointed consul thirty days, with pay, before leaving America for his post. A room in the department has been equipped as a complete working Amer ican consulate. suitable to transact tine business of an American consul in any part of the world, civilized or unciv- ilized. Appointees are no longer per mitted to spend that thirty days pc riod in their own way, but are requir- ed to report every day at the state de- partment for duty and to spend cer- tain number of hours in this model consular office, receiving instructions and acquainting themselves with ev- cry practical detail of q consuls daily work. The best of instruction is pro- vided.-Argonaut

THE LION TAMER.
An Incident That Made the Old Timers
 Fairly Gasp.

 Fairly Gasp.
 "Lion trainers are born, not made" said Professor McPherson, one of America's foremost trainers of these pets from the jungles, while relating some of his experiences to a number of friends at Jamestown recently.
 "A good many professional men lay claims to this saying about being born, not made, but have seen it clearly demonstrated in my profession.
 "The best example of it happened when I was with big show several years ago. We were travelling through Kentucky when we ran short of help CTS to feed the animals, sweep up and make themselves generally useful around the arena. In answer to an advertisement a big, rawboned, mus cular mountaineer, about twenty-five years old, presented himself and, after saying he wasn't skeered of getting hurt, was taken on. His name was Bill. We all told him what to do and to be very cautious about the animals, particularly Emerson, big lion that was said to be the fiercest in captivi- ty, regular man eating lion. What ever you dO,' we told him, keep away from that brute Emerson
 '"That very afternoon he went to work about the cages, sweeping and watering While we performers were in the dining tent the proprietor. think ing he heard some funny noises, went to the arena, where the various ami nal cages were kept, to see if any thing was wrong He looked about for a second and then spied Bill in Elmer sons cage busily engaged in sweeping up the floor. The cage door was open, and the big lion was nowhere to be seen.
 'The boss rushed to the workman and excitedly cried, What are you do- ing in there?'
 "'Oh, jest cleanin' up little,' the big mountaineer coolly replied.
 "My God, man! Where is the lion, Emerson? asked the old time trainer
 "'Oh, he's all right I jest tied him to that pole down there at the end of the yard. He's tied tight, all right Bill said.
 ''That story is absolutely true. That big country bump we hired went to Emerson's cage and without any thought of fear or consequences put a rope around his neck and led him to the post he spoke of. He told me aft erward that the lion never as much as tried to scratch him. Whether the lion was overrated as a man eater or whether Bills unheard of action daZed him I don't know. But I do know that Bill is today one of the most sue cessful and fearless lion trainers in the world. Washington Star.

WHEN KNIGHTHOOD WAS IN

Miss Grace Merritt, who will ap- pear as Mary Tudor in Paul Kester's dramatiZatiOn Of Charles Majors novel, When Knighthood Was in Flower" at Polls Thursday after- noon and evening, has probably been more successful than any other at
 tress who has appeared in the role, not even excepting Julia Marlowe, who created it. During her eXten sive tour of the country last season, Miss Merritt Oftcntimes achieved the distinction of attracting more peO
 pie to the theater than did her dis tinguished predecessor in the part of Mary Tudor. Breaking theater records came to be quite common with the little star, who is this sea son duplicating her great success of last year Manager Ernes+ ShipmaM has secured the play-markets of the world in search of a suitable play to succeed When KnigLthood Was in Flower" and at present he has under consideration piece, the au- thor of which he will not divulge, that promises 70 be one of the great est hits in many years, and in which he will present Miss Merritt next season.

The Red Caid,

Most romantic of all the figures brought into the limelight by the trou- bles in Morocco is the Red Caid," q native leader who has ridden at the head of his men in many a gallant charge against the French. A core spondent says of him: His native name is Caid el Hemerr. IIemerr meaning red. He belongs to the M'Da- era tribe, near Casablanca. He de- rIves his name from the fact that he always dresses in red. The caid is paralyzed in both hands and cannot shoot, but he is well known for his gallantry in leading and urging his men. He is said to possess q talisman rendering him bullet proof"

In the checking room of a theater several large bouquets were standing in vases full of water.
 They belong to people in the audi ence." said the maid in attendance "It seems the fashion now for women to carry huge bouquets to the theateF. But I can't see what good they do anybody, for nobody sees them except myself. If they were kept in the auditorium they would wither during the performance. so in order tO keep them fresh till the end of the play they are checked along with hats and wraps. New York Press.

ELLERY ITALIAN BAND.


 The coming this evening of El- lery's big Italian band to Polls for a single concert may be reckoned as one of the principal musical events of the season. The band appeared Sunday night for its first Sunday concert at the New York hippodrome where it will be heard on many Sun days during the coming winter. After one has heard the Ellery band, favorable recollectiOns of Gilmore, Sousa, Creatcre and Liberati go a-glimmering, and one is forced to admit the superiority of Mir Ellery's charming organization. A program which reaches from the Unfinished Symphony in B minor of Schubert down to the fdvorite later day bal lad Love Me and the World is Mine,' should please all classes. New Haven ought to embrace this opportunity of hearing this brilliant gallery of artists and should greet the band with a capacity house, as the prices are popular and within the reach of all. Prices 25 cents to $1.
