Louis Lannes is BILLED

A wise sage one time wrote that
In theatTicals as in politics gratitude
Is not worth much as an asset" and
while there is TO doubt a great deal
OF truth and wisdom expressed there
in, yet the public, ever ready to re-
ward ,the hCnesty-o purpose which
prompts au~aet6fs endeavors, usually
bestows 4 compensation of gratitude,
by d manifestation Of appreciation and
patronage; therefore Louis James
has no reason to question the graft
tUde Of his public, as year by year
his followers flock to witness his
contributions TO art, thus attcsting
significantly their consideration of his
art, reputation and esteem, and re-
futing the wise sage who penned the
first sentence of this paragraph
Mr.. James is this season reviving
that excellent drama of historical
worth, Henry VIII, and having his
assurance that the cast. production
and embellishments will be in keep
ing with the importance Of the occas-
ion, it is safe to predict that it will
be an offering worthy Of the support
of those who admire the better things
Of, and in Art.

Land of Nod" which will be one Of
the early bookings at the local opera
house. While tEis production is four
years old, its tremendous success in
the larger cities of the East has
caused us to wait until this year to
hear this fantastic story of Bonnie's
dream in the Land of Nod. Owing to
the magnitude OF the production,
conditions have never warranted
building a number two company,
which is usually the case with big
successes, so we may he assured OF
getting the number one company.
Knox Wilson, who has always been
the featured comedian, will be seen
in his original part of April Fool
Prominent in the cast are Neil Nc
Neil and Anna McNabb, who were IN
the original cast, but were loaned to
Charles Dillingham; last season, who
featured them III the Red MILL
Among the other original principals
are William Morgan, Marion Mosby
Louise Lyle, Nelson Riley and Rob
ert DaLOnde. One OF the big features
of this production is the chorus and
ballet, which is said to include some
exceptionally pretty girls. Many new
scenic novelties viii be introduced
this season and the musical score will
be almost entirely new, keeping the
general ensemble Of the piece UP to
its original high standard.

At PaImetto Beach.

Well, last week, despite the very
spiteful weather. was something of a
record breaker at the Peoples Play
ground and the crowds during the
early part of the week were large
and exceedingly enthusiastic. They
enCOred the entire bill night after
night, but then-Well, the show was
good throughout and it makes the
crowd cheerful to be able to enjoy n
good show and the bTeezes of the
Nexic sea at the same time.
This week the management is GER
taiHly there with the goods. 4 regU-
lar headline act is that Of Van Lew
and Gray. Their act is refined sing
ing and talking. and the way the press
generally has been blowing about
these two artists is more recommend
alton than they will need after the
first night. They make good any
where.
Next on the program comes Miss
Edith MCElrOy, haTpist Of note. Miss
McElroy has been heard throughout
the south and the verdict is alway S
the same, wouldn't miss it for the
world
Last but far from least Charles
Stevens. a fancy skater of the first
rank. Among Mr.. Stevens's numer-
Gus and marvellous feats on the little
wheels is his work on a barrel while
on the rollers. His act is one contin-
uous round of difficult balancing.
As usual, the free band concert viii!

pictures with sacred music will be on
tonight.

Orpheum Theatre.

Keep your eye on the Orpheum
Iheatre next week, for according to
the list of acts that have been book
ed by the management, it is a sure
and safe bet that there's going to be
one of the best shows that has ever
struck the old town. futile and May
comprise a team Of novelty sketch
artists that have made a tremendous
hit in all the big cities of the south.
Their act is replete with good sing
ing and clever dancing, and If general
ability cuts any figure, then they are
bound to make a big hit. The Avis
come here direct from Savannah,
where their act was the talk of the
town. They are a pair of gymnasts
and novelty acrObats and they per-
form a number of seeming impossible
feats. Too much cannot be said
about this act, although the act must
certainly be seen to be appreciated
The Four Bells are a quartet Of young
ladies who do one Of the very best
singing and dancing acts that vaude
vile is at present capable of pro-
ducing. Their act is in a class by
itself, being the neatest, most refined
and best dressed singing and dancing
act now appearing before the Ameri-
can public. 1t may be well to men
ton here that a good many of the
vaudeville acts that have played Pen
sacOla, have also played in the biggest
and best vaudeville houses in New
York, Boston, Chicago and all the
other big cities. --.....
Two new reels Of moving pictures
every day; and just a word or two
more to the wise ones: The show at
the Orpheum next week from all ac-
counts Will be a hummer, and don't
let it slip by.
There will be two new reels OF pic
lures shown today continuously from
$3.50 till Il p. m, and a special Sc
lection has been made in the choice
of the films. The management cat
ers especially to children and the best
of care and treatment will be taken
of the little ones.

Opera House Opens Sept. 3.

There is no denying the potency Of
"McFadden's Flats" the peer Of all
musical farce comedies, which is IN
derlined as the first Offering at the
opera house this season, opening
Sept. 3. The piece, which is now In
its fourteenth year, is as attractive
and entertaining as ever. This seas
on an entirely new version of the en-
during comedy is offered and the re-
suit is one of the most pref entious
and thoroughly up-to-date produc-
tions ever offered to theatTe-goe
The fun, while of the brisk, lively ma
ture, is still clean and wholesome
There is not the least suggestion OF
vulgarity or horse play, and the sit
uations while sidesplitting are not at
all improbable Specialties of the
kind that would lift any similar Of
feTing above the commonplace, are
introduced, and musical numbers,
with catchy, tuneful melodies, are
scattered throughout the action OF
the play The scenery is on the
spectacular order and is carried COM
plete for the production. The cast is
composed of sixty people, all capa-
bic in their particular field of merry
making. The singing chorus includes
thirty as bewitching and beautiful
young women as ever mustered in
any theatrical company, while the
costumes, it is said, are better and
more original in design than any
shown here in years. The usual mat
iDees will be given.
