TABLOID DRAWS CROWDS.

Max Bloom IS appearing this week at
the Forsyth to crowded houses at the
popular scale of prices. 10 cents at the
matjnees and 10 cents, 20 cents and 30
cents nj the two performances at night.
Several thousands of people have tested
the value of tabloid musical comedy, and
have been astonished at what the man
agemcut offers at these remarkably low
prices. II has been explained that this Is
possible because Of the wholesale business
that is being done and because of a gen
eral reduction IN the cost of operation,
Nothing has been eliminated from any Of
the tabloid entertainments that had any
value in the original production.
This weeks offering, THE Sunny Side
of Broadway" is in every sense as good
as when seen here running two hours
and a half. and with thirty people In
stead of twenty.
There Is no question about the future
of tabloid in Atlanta. The Forsyth is GO
ing TO be buster than ever before, and the
hour ana a quarter shows will become
popular with every class OF theatergoer.
Next weeks attraction win be "The
Time, The Place and the Girl" with big
company, pretty chorus maidens and in

Black Who Leaped From Train
Near Terminal 0VerpOWered
in Ella Street House.

giant negro near seven feet in
height. with the broken shackles of
handouts stiu clnging to his wrists,
gave Policemen Hughes and Lowe the
battle of their lives early this morning
on Ella street, when they attempted to
arrest him as fugitive The negro
was VIII Houseworth, who last night
went wild in a railroad coach which
had borne him from Birmingham, and,
although bound with handouts over
came l. c. Clarke. his guard, and leaped
from the train as it neared the Termi-
nal station.
The two policemen took up the chase
and several hours later trailed him to
the house of his brother, % Ella street
After a desperate fight, they overpow-
eerd him and took him to the city
prison.
Houseworth was arrested two days
ago in Birmingham, and |. G. Clarke,
professional bondsman of Atlanta,
went there to identify him, thinking he
had a complaint against him. AL
though he found that the negro had
skipped no bond, he volunteered to
bring him to Atlanta for the sheriff of
Fulton county. He succeeded until the
train neared the Terminal station. Here
the negro made a frantic effort to es-
cape, beat off Clarke, who attempted
to hold him, and leaped from the ear
into the darkness.

MISSOURI WOMEN
WIN INITIAL CLASH
IN SUFFRAGE WAR

JEFFERSON CITY. MO, Feb. =
The public hearing on woman suffrage
ended rather abruptly before the fair
canpaigners fairly had begun to plead
for favorable committee recommenda-
tons.
After listening to three of ten sched
uled speeches on behalf of the measure
Senator Wilson moved that the senate
committee vote at once to report favor
ably on the pending legislation. 1t car
ried unanimously. The resolution au-
thorizes submitting to the voters of
Missouri a proposed constitutional
amendment granting woman suffrage
The vote came as the result of march
led on the capitol by DR.. Anna Shaw
who made vigorous speeches before the
legislature.

"FREckLEso is DISAPPOINTING.

Whatever "Freckles' is as a book
and there are many thousands who have
liked tit is not a play capable Of the
fullest measure of interest The play as
presented at the Atlanta last night is
handsomely staged, giving a fine view Of
the Limber!ost in its first two acts. and
II is cauably interpreted except in one
or two spots probably but it Is simply
not a story intended for stage purposes.
In a word. 1t lacks action. Its most in
terestiug situations lose their thrill
through lack of staging possibilities.
There is hardly climax In the story
which could be called other than mildly
interesting.
one OF the really refreshing facts IN
the present cast is the faultess Irish
brogue of Perry Golden. who plays
Frecldes and who also has "A good voice
which he exhibits in two songs with a
distinctly Irish flavor. 1t may be sus-
pected that the brogue is not assumed
either. for its burr is too natural and is
distinctly noticeable in his songs.
However much one is tempted TO praise
the evident efforts of the east in telling
the story, the fact that it is not stage
story is too patent Here today and Sat

That is the question which Municipal
Judge Stewart is called upon to decide
in the case of Robert Eichenberger, who

that her husband has been swearing at

the man $50 and costs, but entertained a

noted an expression almost of auster.

him as the revelation OF obyinacy and
Indifference to his will she had shown
tonight.
Papa. you don't understand what

it's pleasant. He can't throw down

because he finds he doesn't like her.
II she's been disagreeable that's
misfortune. but 1t doesn't liberate him
from the promises he's made"
Then you think when a man like
Dominick Ryan. hardly more than
boy. makes mistake that ruins his
life, he's got to stay by IT."
"Yes. he must. He's given a solemn
promise. He must keep 1t. Mistake
or sin doesn't matter"
The old man was silent He had
presented his case as strongly and per.
suasively as he knew how. and he had
lost It. There was no longer any use

from the fire and came toward him.
But you must promise me one thing
that that woman Is to be let alone,
that no one-you or any one you have
any control oyer-makes any more OF.

She came to stand beside his

hand to her as was his custom when
she stood near him. but he was afraid
that she might not take it.

It was an easier promise to make
than Rose guessed. The old man. un.
der an air OF mild concurrence in her
demands. experienced sensation Of
cynical amusement at the thought that
the first move for a reopening Of nego-
tiatlons must come from Berry.
"Oh, yes, III promise that" he said
