CREATORE and HIS
BAND HERE TONIGHT

In speaking OF a weeks engagement
in Boston the past summer by the
noted band which is to appear here
tonight, the daily papers gave the
following:
Boston Journal-July IS, 1911:
"Creatore greeted by a large audi
ence. Master conductor has lost none
of his attractiveness. He and hia
band opened an engagement in Bos-
ton last night to a very large audi
ence. If a master of anything can
improve Creatore is more attractive
than ever"
Boston Evening Record-July Is,
1911: "A large and very apprecia-
tive audience greeted Creatore and his
band last evening. AS the concert
proceeded the audience became more
and more appreciative, and before the
concert had progressed for more than
three numbers it was greeted with
.tumultuOus appause.'
Boston Journal-July 10, 1911:
NEARLY 1000 persons listened to a
welI-balanced concert by Creatore's
band last night Selections from
Handel, Mozart and Herbert won the
band much applause, as did the rem
dition Of a march by Creatore him
self"
Bokton Globe-July %, 1911: Gre
atores band drew record breaking
crowds last night The entire am
phitheatre was filed and so great
was the press that the management
was compelled to h;ce several rows
of chairs on the ground between the
bandstand and the rows of boxes
The usual intense enthusiasm was dis
played for the various numbers"
Boston Evening Record-July p,
1911: "Creatore and his band OF
celebrated musicians still hold sway.
The engagement thus far has been
one of the most successful of its kind
ever undertaken here"
Boston Globe-Aug. IS, 1911: THE
concert last evening by Creatores
Band drew the largest attendance seen
at any of the series so far. The great
feature of the evening was the per

fording a magnificent opportunity for
displaying the accomplishments of the
famous leader and his band"

THE GIRL In The TAXI"

An event Electrically of the present
season will be the forthcoming APP
pearance in this city of that far-famed
and sensationally successful play,
THE Girl in the Taxi" which is book
ed for an engagement of one night at
the Opera House, Monday, Nov. 18th.
THE Girl in the Taxi" may aptly be
referred to as the big scream" of the
year, for wherever it has been pre-
scented it has caused audiences ia
laugh almost to the point of Mysteries.
Dancing, singing and musical spe-
cialties, form pleasantly diverting
features of "The Girl in the Taxi" and
the company of players engaged to
present this laugh-producing enter
tainment is composed entirely of
comedians of the first rank.
The fun is said to start with the
rise of the first curtain and the pace
set is a fast one. Situations and COM
plications occur which are so scream
ingly funny that the audience has lit
tie opportunity for breathing spells.

REAL ESTATE
IS LOOKING UP.
Several BID Sales To Be Put On IN Near
Future.

Real estate is looking up again, since
Lee Arterbury has withdrawn from the
race for Tax Assessor. Lee Arterbury
as every body knows, is q Real Estate
Man and never had any business fooling
with the Tax Assessors Office. Lee Is
preparing to put on several big sales in
the near future, and judging from his
past record in this line and the desir-
ability of the property he has to offer,
we feel warranted in predicting that
they will be great success.
With the Congress Heights Addition
to Greenwood, the new fifty acre addi-
tion to be opened in North Greenwood,
adjoining the Boulevard Addition, the
McShane Addition to Greenwood, the
Kimbrough Addition to Itta Bena, the
Lee Arterbury Addition to Philip, and
large addition to the City Of Indian
ola, of which Mr.. Arterbury last week
closed a contract to take charge, there
are few men, white or black, whose
wants he cannot fill.
Lee says he is going to get busy at
once improving and beautifying his ad-
dition at,lndianola and give our thriv-
ing little neighbor one Of the most de-
sirable residence sections in the state.
Mr.. Arterbury has enjoyed an extern
sive business during the past four
years, and now that he has decided to
devote his time exclusively to the pur-
chase and sale of real estate, and is lay
Ing for handling both city property and
farm lands, broad plans and securing
the services of competent assistants,
his office will, we have no doubt, with
in a short while, rank wen in volume of
business with any real estate Office in
the state.

YOU HAD BETTER

Board WIN Not Hear Complaints Afteg
September.

One of the important matters dis
cussed at the August term Of the Board
Of Supervisors was tho entertainment
Of revision Of tax assessment.
1t will be remembered that notice
was given to tax payers last year in
regard to their appearance before the
Board to revise the tax rolls, and that
there was no iron-clad rule as to the
limit of time given to the hearing Of
such complaints, and for several months
the Board WAS busted with complaints.
The business Of having tn, tax rolls
revised is Of no little import to both
the tax payers, assessor, sheriff and the
board, and it is incumbent uf0n Il . tax
payers, as stated in the law, that they
appear at the time set by the Board
aud then and there plead tfoiF com.
plants. But owing to the indulgence oi
the Board last year they allowed The
grace time to continue to such an ex
tent that at every consequent sessios
complaints were made.
This session last Monday found th>
members of Board in positive decision
that the time for making complaint,
b. limited and they have ordered tha,
uuiess taxpayers shall appear on Wed

BREWER FOR SENATOR.
BIlbO FOR GOVERNOR.
Guy RenCher Makes Prophecy For Race
.orr Yea S Hence.

JAfK>ON, MISS, Aug. 8 S-Amcne
others echoes OF the big ratification
rally and demonstration held here last
night in ho,or Of the nomination OF
James X. Vardaman as Mississippi q
choice h,ough a me- ,rity Of her voting
men for United States senator, is the
general discussion of the effect Of the
great Vardaman Bilbo victory four
years hence 1t was openly declared by
one of the speakers, Guy ]. Rencher Of
Kemper, that the signs point unerring-
ly to the choice of Earle Brewer by the
pc Pile of the state in the next general
state campaign, as the man for senator
to succeed John Sharp Williams in 1917
That this prophet struck responsive
chord in the minds of many persons In
the great assembly was demonstrated
Enthusiastically by the us round
of cheering.
In the next breath the same speaker
declared that the other logical outcome,
as seen through his horoscope was the
nomination of Theo. G. Bilbo as COVER
nor at the same time, and this declar.
tion was followed by an equally demon
strative manifestation of approval.
While the Poplarville senator did not
give voice to any such ambition during
his own tenminute speech, neither did
he wave aside the soft impeachment.
SUGGESTION Not New One.
While there are these who character
re such declarations as somewhat
premature, and the prophecies liable to
90 away it, is evident that such is the
impression at the present time, and 1T
also quite obvious that such impressions
have existed throughout the state for .
long time. 1t was given further impetus
when at the meeting of the state execut-
i've committee on July II Gov.-ele ct
Brewer ueclared that it was his inten-
tion of eepirg hands off in the sena-
torial scrap, declaration which was
excepted with unconcealed satisfaction
by the supporters OF the ex-governor.
Throughout the speeches the appeal
for harmony and fer getting together
spirit predominated, this being strongly
emphasized by more than one OF the
speakers. including the ex-governor
himself, John II. Taliey of Hattiesborg,
who had stumped the state in the
interest of the Vardaman cause, evid-
entity voiced the sentiments of many
when he declared: This victory it's
weight of responsibility. 1t means
that we must forget the past chickering's
AID carry on fight, all together, for
old Mississippi and do aw, y with fac
tionalism in our grand old party"
Today all is quiet, and while some
of the visitors remained over, the bulk
of those who came from out of town had
left for their homes by last nights spec
i'll train. The big stand was torn down
early, and gangs OF men were busy dur
ing the morning cleaning up the trash
and litter following the fireworks and
broken up transparencies.
