 Miss Amelia Markstein has left for New York to join Mrs Robert Gary, with
 whom she will visit other points in the
 cast.
 | MT. and Mrs. P. H. Lallande's resi-
 dence IS one that shows the value that un l Tagging interest and attention to little de- l tails have In making the charm of home. l IL Is a handsome and commodious brick
 edifice on Iroquois street. Though com l pleted only a few months ago it is al-
 ready one of the most attractive homes on l the Highlands, with its smooth lawn and I flower bordered walks. Next to the Lal- 1 jahde residence IS the home of MT and
 Mrs. J. D. Kirkpatrick another place re-
 fecting the originality and taste of its owners. Between these two homes is very attractive drive. This Is an alley In
 reality but the owners of the two resi-
 dences happily saw it's possibilities and
 jointly have had it graded and cherted
 with the result that few drivers of wagons
 ever suspect that it is other than a pri-
 vate drive. Thus Is shown the value of
 a community of interests. So much more l can De dCCOInpllbneQ III Illt IIlON6Llcul 1OI

 The Coburn players, who will appear at the Country club Friday and Saturday
 evenings and Saturday matinee in Shakes
 pearean drama, are pleasing audiences of
 fashionable folk in many southern cities.
 There are fattering accounts of them in
 papers wherever they go. They have just 1 finished engagement in Atlanta, anu ! the Georgian speaks of them as follows: 1 Shakespeare au natural and al fresco 1 was served at East Lake Friday even
 ing by the Coburn players with the l kindly assistance of a calcium light and
 the moon. The players and audience
 swore not at the inconstant moon, the
 melancholy Jaques was gwen an extra l fit of the dumps by the still more in | constant calcium, which persisted In l changing scenes from high moon to mid | night without warning, thus rudely cutting
 into several of Jaques favorite remarks.
 But let us scoff not at art, for this was
 the real thing. The artistic instinct bub- bled over at East Lake. The outgoing
 trolley cars were damned with 1t and l when d IIldH SOt OH dt llc CciitiSTy dii 1 asked where the fish fry was the motor man condescendingly explained that Shakespeare was goin to play a piece out
 at the club. The Bohemian instinct was 1 there in chunks also, and some of the men in the audience proved it by smoking 1 cigarettes, the smoke making splendid wreaths in the glare of the calcium-whea

 The residence of MT. and Mrs. J. w. | Mcqueen on Seventeenth street, near l Eleventh avenue, south, is one of the most beautifully kept places about town. 1 One never sees the house needing paint, l year in and year out. as this Is always | done just a little before anyone expects | it. The verandas are models of care and | neatness and the plans always look as | though they have just received summer l shower Coias of gaudy hue border the 1 house. almost concealing the foundation.
 The lawn, which is unusually large, Is
 level and green and great mass Of 1 color Is attractively added by a crepe
 mrytle now in full bloom in the corner
 near the driveway. MT. and Mrs. Mc-
 Queen are both deeply interested in their l home and personally see to its conduct
 sparing no pains to improve and beautify l even when it requires tearing up and l planting trees anew or changing archi- l tectural schemes unsatisfactory to them. A pretty effect is produced by the flower
 garden just visible at tae rear of the | wide lawn.
