HANDSoME1T IN SOUTH GEORGIA
Jeweiry Establishment of A. Roths-
child a Brunswick Show Place.

At this season of the year it is
natural for the merchants to make
their stores veritable show places
The mind and the heart at Christ
mas tide turns to beautiful things
and to beautiful thoughts. However,
simple justice demands that the mag
nificent jewelry store o. 4. Roths-
child on Newcastle street be men
toned as among the handsomest in
the state of Georgia. Mr. Rothschild,
always enterprising, has this year ex-
ceeded all others in the importation
of beautiful jewelry into this city. He
perhaps has the largest and the best
selected line of diamonds in South
Georgia, while the assortment of cut
glass, solid gold and silverware is
really amazing. Fully abreast of the
times, progressive and reliable, Mr.,
Rothschild stands in "a class all by
himself in the jewelry line in south
Georgia.
Mr. RothSchild invites the people
of this city to visit his store and in
spect the display he has to show; he
cares not whether the visitor becomes
a purchaser or not. But he wants
the Brunswick people to come and be
at home in his very attractive store.

"THE FRoLlcs OF 1912"
New Style of Musical Comedy Seen
Last Night at the Grand.

A fair-sized audience was present
at the Grand last night to witness
The Frolics of 1872" musical
comedy which has been showing in
this section at $1.00, but to which
local theater-goers were taxed $1.50
Rube Welch and Kittie Francis, the
two bright liohts of the production,
were both very good, the former be-
ing an unusually clever comedian, but
they, together with two dancers and
the Japanese performers, furnished
all the amusement. There was not
voice Nin the aggregation; and none
of them attempted to do much sing
ing
The feature of the show was the
great act of the Jap, whose work
was clever and who received the ap-
plause of the audience for his excel
lent work There were one or two
other very good features, and equally
as many poor ones.

Gallery Gods Make 1t Unpleasant Be-

whether it is the fault of the police
department or the management Of the
Grand, Is not known, but it is up to
something with the authority to put
stop to the very boisterous and an
hoying noise in the gallery 1T
every performance at the popular
playhouse. 1t matters not whether a
minstrel show, musical comedy heavy
drama or any other kind of entertain
ment IS on at the playhouse, it seems
That the gallery gods endeavor TO en-
tertain the audience for many min
utes before the rise OF the curtain.
and they are permitted to whistle and
yell and whoop and scream to deaf
enlng tone much to the annoyance Of
those occupying seats elsewhere In
the house.
AS stated, it is not known who
should control these noisy theater-
goers, but at any rate it Is disgust
ing to many patrons Of the popular
playhouse and some steps should be.
taken at lesst TO preserve some or
der in the gallery.
In this connection, 1t can be safe
ly stated that in no other city in the
country Is such conduct tolerated in

MADE PUBLIC.
ENGLAND OFFERS PALACE
,istoric St. James May Be the Meet
ing Place of the Delegates in the
British Capitalize Meet Friday,
December 13.

London, Dec. THE British gov
ernment mas placed historic ST. James
palace at the disposal of the peace
plenlpotentiaries representing the OF
loman empire and the allied Balkan
hauons as a place for holding their
conferences.
The meeting of the diplomats, which
is arranged for next Friday, Decem-
Der 13, is looked forward to with
great interest here and the general
hope prevails that the outcome of the
negotiations will be settlement of
the Balkan question which has trou-
bled Europe so many years.
The delegates named by the differ
ent countries to act on their behalf
at the conference are:
For Turkey-Tewfik Pasha, Turkish
ambassador in London, Miami Pas
ha, Turkish ambassadors in Berlin;
Rechad Pasha, Turkish minister of
commerce.
For Servia-G. Novakovitch of the
Servian treasury department; A. Nj
kolitch, speaker of the Servian par
lament; General Biovitch.
For Montenegro-Ex-P Premier My
uskovitch; M. Popovitch, formerly
Montenegrin minister at Constantine
pie; Count Veyovitch, chief of the
Montenegrin cabinet.
r For Bulgaria-Dr. Gueschoff, prime
minister; DR.. S. Daneff, speaker of
the Bulgarian chamber of deputies,
and General Savoff, Or General Fit
choff.
1t has not yet been definitely de-
cided whether Greece will send plen-
ipotentiaries to participate with the
representatives of her allies in the
peace negotiations to be held here.
In fact, a report published this morn
ing says she will enter into separate
peace negotiations with Turkey in
one of the European capitals, prob
ably Vienna.
For the moment, however, she is
in a different position from that oc-
cupied by Bulgaria, Servia and Mon
tenegro, as she has not officially
agreed to the terms of the armistice
signed a few days ago.
