"Madame Sherry -

In Madame Sherry" the three-a act
French vaudeville which was present
ed at the Opera house Tuesday eve
ming Manager GHddy gave the patrons
of his playhouse something in the line
of musical comedy that WAS to quite
an extent a new departure. and whiel.
seemed To strike a popular chord. Not
that it was. any better than some of
the musical comedies which nave been
given here in the past, but it was
Observation-Disclosures in plot, general ar
rangement and in detail. AS might
have been expected there is a decide
edly French atmosphere surrounding
the play, although the scenes are laid
in and about New York and this adds
a degree of spice and snap which,
combined with tie tuneful music
which goes with it, furnishes an eve
ning's entertainment that is of more
than ordinary merit. The costumes
are rich and the stage settings APP
propriate to the occasion.
The principals in the cast We're for
the most part excellent and the chorus
good. although as the members, as
pupils OF school for aesthetic dane
ing, they do not have much singing
to 10 Halen Mostyn as Theophilus
sherry, was very funny and a fair
singer, and created 40 end of melrl-
ment, while Anna Bond as Catherine
the Irish wife of the French ianitor,
was one of the hits of the evening.
Virginia Foltz as Pepita was also
pleasing. but the bright particular
star OF the evening was Marie Flynn,
the little convent girl. in her songs
and dances. One of her prettiest
numbers was the song and dance
The Birth of d Butterhy," and an
other was "Ev'ry Little Movement
Has u Meaning All It's own" She has
pleasing personality. beautiful
voice. and as dancer She is one OF
the most graceful that has yet APP
peared on an Augusta stage This
production was as q whole good and
one that leaves on the part OF the
audience a desire TO see il again.

And Hon. A. 0. Stanley Scores
in the Steel Probe
Proceedings.
A GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT
By Which the High Prices Of
Steel We're not To
be Cut.

Washington, D. c., June IA
Chairman Stanley scored on the
Steel Trust yesterday when he fore
ed the admission from Former Vice
President Gayley that there was a
gentleman's agreement between the
various steel companies, to keep up
the price of steel rails.
Gayley admitted that all the COM
panies in the agreement had agreed
to sell no rails at less than $2a ton.
The admission forced from the vice
president is considered of great i'm
portance as it bears out the suspicion
that steel rails were to stay up re-
CARELESS of how low other products
of steel went. Furthermore it will
furnish basis for action against the
Steel Trust at the close of the inves-
tigation and for possible criminal
action later.
