Captain odom says that the Salva- ton Army Is being called upon during the present bad weather to attend a number of cases of charity and desti- tuition.
 Most of the calls of late have been for fuel Every case Is investigated be- fore help Is given. to see whether the cases are worthy or not Some of the families that have applied in the last few days have been found with sickness in the home and without fuel and money to buy 1t with.

Amusen7enfs
Mme. schumann-Heinlx


 Mme. Schumann- -Heink was given an ovation at The Grand last night when she delighted a select audience with a program Of unusual brilliancy. Those Who have heard this famous contralto in former years marvelled at the sus- tained sweetness and power of her voice. which Is still considered the best of the best.
 Starting with the scintillant aria from Rossfs "Mitrane" she built up the series in the first group through Schu- bert's Du bist die Ruh Wohin, follow ing with the booming Wagner num- bers, the Waltrauten scene from Got terdammerung. and the recitative aria from Rienzi.
 It must be. confessed that 1t was in the fourth group that Mme Schumann- Heink gave the greatest pleasure. Not so much because these were in Eng fish, but because they are of English. She sang Nevin's Rosary" with SO much sweetness than an encore seemed necessary. Two numbers from Chad wick 70, Let Night Speak of Me" and soulful little Lullay by Bonds, as well as Rud Ganzs Love in a Gotta se 1" completed this group.
 The great artist was accompanied bv Mrs. Katherine Hoffman, who was most artistic. She did not contribute to the program other than by accompanying Mmer Schumann- Heink.
 "The Holy City" will be the attrac- tion at The Grand tonight.

Good BIli at Majestic.

There Is no especial headIiner on this weeks bill~at the Majestic-every act Is headliner in itself as the frequent curtain calls after the turns at yester- days performances evidenced
 It Is doubtful if better equilibrists and contortionists have been seen in Montgomery than Aitken and son, who are at the little theatre this week. One of the numerous stunts which Aitken does with perfect ease, is eating with his feet while he is flat on his oh est on the floor, his feet being curied over his head. His exit from the stage is a feat we'll worth mentioning. He ties himself into a knot by bending back ward and rolls from the stage as q ball.
 Jimmy Wall, the minstrel man, has been seen before in Montgom@ky. He hast lost none of his fun making pow CTS but added to them. He received numerous encores.
 Leo and Chapman in Wanted Don key are good. Besides few hazard ous gymnastis stunts, the queer an- tics of the donkey brought bursts of applause from yesterdays audiences.
 The blIl is concluded with moving pictures which are above the average The bill will be repeated throughout the week with daily changes of the moving pictures.
