HENRY NJ. FLAGLER
IS CRITICALLY ILL

ST. AUGUSTINE, FLA, Feb. To-
Henry NJ Flagler, the Standard Oil
magnate is critically ill here and has
been for some time, though news of
his condition was kept secret until
today. when 1t was learned by acct
dent.
The physicians attending Flagler re-
fuse to make an official statement
about their patient, but they have pri-
vately admitted that he is very low
and have expressed little hope for his
recovery.
Mr.. Flagler is very old, and his
condition seems to be the result of
a general breakdown rather than of
a special disease.
MIR. Flagier owns the East Coast
railroad. and he also built the over
sea railroad to Key West. His in
vestments in Florida transportation
lines and tourist hotels total many

"THE SPRING MAID" Is
AGAIN AT THE ACADEMY

THE Spring Maid with Gene
Luneska playing the principal role,
was seen last evening at the Academy
in the opening performance of a re-
turn engagement. The company is
the same as that which played here
during the earlier part of the season.
and the production last evening re-
ceived just as hearty a reception as
ii did at any time during the earlier
engagement.
The charming little operetta with
its, melodies, tripping waitzes, It's
magnificent setting and charming
story viii never fail to charm, no
matter how often 1t is seen. Many
at the Academy last evening had
seen The Spring Maid" before, but
if the fact prevented their enjoyment
of the piece then their acts belied
them No doubt they attended the
return engagement because they had
seen ii before Certain 1t was in any
event. however, that the audience re-
ceived il most heartily and showed
it's appreciation by frequent gales OF
prolonged applause.
There is not a week member in the
present company, and 1t Ia perhaps
the best rounded of any seen here in
similar show for some time, The
dance numbers probably received the
greater part of the applause, especial
ly those in which Hattie Fox, as An
namiri. figured. j. II. Goldsworthy,
as the prince. and Gene Luneska,
as the princess. however. won hearty
approval in their waltzes. also
. All of the principals. in. fact we're
excellent, and their performance will
live long in the memories of those
who witnessed the performance OF
the charming operetta given by last
evenings excellent company.
"'Fhe Spring Maid" will be seen al
a matinee today and again tonight.

win there be anything of special
interest to women at the auto show
has been asked a score of times and
the answer is, yes. emphatically, yes.
Women are especially interested in
automobile wearing apparel and the
very latest things IN motoring attire
win be on exhibition. Lewis kaufman,
the local authority on women's wear
for the automobile, will have charge
of an exhibition which promises to
outshine anything seen in New ork.
Some folk seem to think that they
have to go to the big village to get
the proper things in motoring goods,
he said yesterday. We intend to
show them that they can he obtain
ed right here in Richmond and at
less expense. To be sure, we are per-
feCtfy willing to charge just as much
as the most exacting dealer in New
ork, but for the average motorlst
who studies economy, whether 1t is
in oil. gasoline or automobile forgery
we will demonstrate that better
quality and a finer line of goods can
be obtained in Richmond than In
New York for less. money.
The reason why is very plain
Rents are a great deal higher in New
York than in Richmond and mer-
chants must charge higher prices. We
will show anything in the line of auto
mobile toegery that can be found in
New York We will duplicate anything
that can be found in New York and
our line of Partisan goods will be
equal to anything seen in that city
Besides there will be Richmond
saIeswomen TO wait on customers.
suppose you think that is not an in
dueement. Did you every try TO buy
anything in the automobile line in
New York in department store
No? Well. you should attempt ii just
once, If only for the experience. You
will know then why / lay so much
stress on Richmond saleswoman. Be
lieve me, that is an inducement not
10 be overlooked"
That Cabaret Show.
Some folk have an idea that the
cabaret show at the auto show is 2
naughty, naughty affair. Not so. Il
is racy and spicy but of high art
YVette Guilbert is the ideal cabaret
performer. Gaby Deslys is another

Around the Clock bears traces OF
having been comic operate in con-
struction. evidences of being framed
for musical comedy and its two prin-
cipal sections, widely separated in plot
and development might either of them
be used as curtain raisers for length
Ter shows, or as afterpieces for the
principal Offering of an evening. But,
above and beyond ali il is essentially
funny in its every part and in conse-
quence wen pleased the Immense
crowds that yesterday witnessed the
opening performances at.the Empire.
After having viewed 1T one must
needs conclude that anything in
which Billie Richie is employed is
bound to be funny and that is the
principal part to be considered. He
is more than funny, so peculiarly
gifted in face and figure and man
nerism that everything he does, Of
fers at, or makes a pretense OF do
ing is instantly classed as one of the
funny hits of the piece. AS dancer
he Is superb, as an acrobat he is al
most without a peer, and. fer diff
ferent from other artists acrobatical-
~ inclined, Richie is able to sing
and read his lines remarkably we'll.

genius of the possessor.
