GARDEN OF ALLAH"

Promptly at ? o'clock on Christmas
at the Auditorium The Garden OF
Allah" will begin an engagement OF
five performances. 1t is safe to say
that no drama of recent times has
taken such a firm hold on the local
theater-going public. Prominent in
the cast are Sarah TruaX, Lawson
Butt. John Blair. Antonio Salerno,
William Jeffrey and Grace Noble.
The play is a dramatization OF the
Hichens novel that was one of the
best sellers of few years ago, and
closely follows the novel. The monk
who pines for freedom and human
love. who violates his oaths and bursts
his bonds. and who, by so doing.
brings misery on himself and on a
pure noble woman. is a figure as old
as the mOnastic idea itself. What is
new is Hichens' setting OF the subject.
Those responsible for the dramati-
ZatiOn Of the book have recognized 70
the full the secret of the books sue
cess. They have accordingly taken
far more than ordinary pains TO re-
produce the atmosphere" of the
story. The result is a remarkably
faithful portrayal of the spirit of the
story and really extraordinary at
tractive series of artistic stage pic
lures.
To witness the play is to witness
series of kalesedcopic pictures show
ing the desert in all its moods. They
follow one another in rapid sequence.
First there is the sunrise on the deS-
ert. With the strange indistinctive
caravan. and the figures of the Arab
dismounting from his camel and wor-
Shipping the sun. 1t is but a flash
this scene. yet how eloquent in its
silence and mystery it is. Then
there is the road to the monastery
in the forests near Tunis, with that
strange and tragic figure Of the monk
battling with himself and destiny.
This, again, is but a flash. and then
there bursts on the delighted vision
of the audience the verandah of the
AlgernOn hotel with gay crowds of
Arabs in front of ii. and beyond the
desert, unceasing in its call, fascinat-
ing in its stern, strange beauty.
Three great scenes there. There
has been little Of dialogue and little
of action, yet already we have been
and feel its tragedy gripping at the
heart. SO far it has been the spell of
the desert. Now comes even the warm.
strange smell OF the east-a vision
of an Arab city street with its bolster
Gus crowds Of merry makers and
tourists and beggars-and the girls
dancing in the windows. This is
changed again TO the inside of the
houses. with the wild eastern dancing
girls and the barbaric Ethiopian en-
tertainers and the strange music and
costumes of the half savage natives.
Always the same two figures
moving through the panorama-the
nervous, uncouth monk who has es-
capped after 10 years of monastery
life, and the girl who is touring the
east alone. Then comes the beautiful
garden Of the gentle and unhappy
Count Anteoni, with its tropical lux
uriance, and its poetic Arab piping of
love. And last the great desert of
Mogar, seen in the magic eastern
night. the fury Of a devastating dust
storm, and the ethereal beauty of
dawn. Here it is that the story reach
es it's climax

HEART DISEASE

How often we read OF some one
dying from heart disease as the result
of acute indigestion after a hearty

undigested food ferments and pro-

heart. and If this organ is weakened
by chronic stomach trouble there is
grave danger of a fatal attack. DR..

Ar THE ORPHEUNI.


When the management of the Or
pheum were looking about for an
extra good attraction to head the
Christmas week bill they were for
tunate enough TO secure Roehm
Athletic girls, an act which has re-
ceived universal praise all over the
circuit. This act will open the eyes
OF the women patrons of the house TO
the advantages Of physical culture.
These girls, five in number, experts
in bag punching, boxing, wrestling,
and fencing. give an act illustrating
every possible phase of these branches
OF sport. The girls keep busy every
moment they are on the stage, elm
mating useless posing, and show what
woman can make of herself by
proper training.
There will doubtless be a hearty
welcome for Ted Mclean. former
leading man at the Indiana theater,
who returns in a capital little comedy,
Let Well Enough Alone. This is
Mr.. McLeans first appearance here
in a number of years and he now has
the assistance of a charming leading
woman in his novel dramatic episode.
Just to lend fun and jollity TO the
bill Pima and her pickaninnies, fresh
from Carolina, will sing. dance and
reproduce their levee pastimes. Pima
is a dusky belle, with ability and good
looks and her romping picks will
make a lively spot on the big holiday
bill.
Young and April are novelty
iugglers with new equipment for an
act of this kind. No cannon balls, or
cum bersome clubs are used, just
freshly blown rainbow soap bubbles,
and what they can do with these
fragile spheres is something little
short OF marvellous. To add melody
and mirth to the program, the De

with happenings in fairyland and OPP

of unique comedy situations and
laughable comedy hits. This little

A Christmas Peril OF the South

From the Charleston News ann (.ouriar
We do not know just when tho
custom of celebrating the Christmas
season with fireworks was introduced
into the south. Probably it followed tho
discontinuance of the habit of observ-
ing the fourth OF July in this manneY
and the use of explosives was doubt.
less suggested In connection with that
patriotic event, because In the early
days of the republic other means for
the working OF of youthful spirits had
not been devised. Small cannon were
common enough, in many rural com.
munities as well as in larger centers,
and young men frequently spent hours
loading and firing them, regardless of
the danger involved. Tragedies were
not infrequent. Only the other day, in
an account of the life of a distin-
guished minister of upper South Caro-
lima, we came across the story of the
bursting of one of these cannon at such
a celebration away back in 1887, two Of
the young men who were firing 1t hay-
ing their heads blown off.
The indifference to danger which was
characteristic then still persists. and
meantime the ancient cannon have been
succeeded by innumerable inventions
which may deservedly be called in
fernal. The pistol which is very much
in evidence this year as Christmas ap-
proaches seems to be about the worst
of the lot, but there are others nearly
as bad in their capacity for working
injury to young America and a menace
besides to property. If this passion for
fireworks manifested itself simply on
Christmas day or during Christmas
week 1T would be bad enough, but 1t
beigns to show itself weeks in ad-
vance of the holidays and 1t lasts un-
til the supply Of explosives is ex-
hausted. Tens of thousands Of dollars
