1t will be interesting to watch the
result of the installation of drama
tic stock company at the Columbia
theater tomorrow night For a long
time it has been the popular opinion
that Phoenix did not care for this
form of amusement. that the city
WAS not big enough for dramatic
stock and that any manager at
tempting it was inviting financial
disaster.
1t has been pointed out. in proof
of this. that no dramatic stock COM
pany which has appeared here in the
Inst four seasons has been success
full and that they failed because
Phoenix does not care for that sort
OF thing. That is quite true. Phoc
Xix certainly does not care for the
sort of thing the dramatic stock
companies that we have seen here
have offered to their patrons. They
would have failed in any town for
the very good and sufficient reason
that there was little or nothing to re
commend them.
We believe that Phoenix will he
just as fond of dramatic works. when
presented, carefully staged and pro-
perly advertised as any other city
1t may take little time to get ac-
customed 10 the idea of only one
performance Il. night and the neCes-
sity of slightly higher prices may
gall a little at first; but if the COM
pany is good one. if the plays are
properly rehearsed and the settings
pleasing. it will soon have . follow
ing that will make it profitable.

"The Garden of Paradise

Of its setting has more than come
up to expectations. For months The

The proof Of the pudding is in the
eating and as the new company has
not been seen here results are prob
lematical: but from what we know
of Mr.. Redmond and his work IN
California. there is every reason to
believe that his stock company will
be far superior to any that has APP
peared here in the last four seasons.
He has an enviable reputation as n
producer and manager and he thor
oughly understands his business. That
he will make a great effort to make
good there can be no doubt and if
his company is even half as good
as it promises to be he should sue
coed.
Phoenix talks a good deal about
not being privileged to enjoy many
of the good things of the amusement
world, it pirates of its appreciation
of good things and then. when some
really good thing comes 70 town,
it shows that appreciation by staying
away. The moving picture theatcrs
are today showing pictures that are
l0Il0llclN DtiitT tHttu any liiiHS tNNi
shown here before, pictures that are
not only far ahead of those shown
at the average place of this kind but
arc as good as can be seen anywhere.
More real features have been shown
liz the local theaters so far this season
than in all the rest of tho time we
have been i'll Phoenix, and the audi
ences are smaller than they have
ever been.
1t is the duty of everybody who
can afford it to support the locat
amusements now. AS we pointed
out last Sunday they give employ
ment to large number of people
and expend large sums of money III
salaries. But they do more than
that, they afford very necessary re
taxation and recreation for the public,

tho end was not far off. requested hin

When Mr. Bremner consulted DR..
Kelly in December, il is understood
neither Or. Kelly nor his assistant,

mans optimism was communicated to
all with whom he came in contact.
Only a few weeks ago Mr.. Bremner
went out riding with his wife and his
sister and when the carriage return

walked up the steps and to his room
unassisted.
About four years ago he began to
feel the pain Of the cancer. but
thought it rheumatism. In few
months he learned It's deadly nature.

tried in vain to cure him.

CORNsTALK BORER ACTIVE.
Federal Experts Find Green Oats
Bug Busy AlsO-Suggestions TO
Farmers.

Philip Luginbill. federal entomolo-
gist, and A. II. Boyer, his assistant,
are working toward the extermina-
ton Of the cornstalk borer and the
little green bug that destroys oats.
Mr.. Boyer has recently returned
from an extensive trip that included
many towns in the eastern part OF
Georgia and the western part OF this
State. In almost every field that he
visited, most noticeably those around
Macon and Greenville, he found that
both Of these pests had done and were
doing a great amount Of damage. II
Is urged that the farmers practice
fall plowing. and Il that has not been
done. the most effe ctive means Of de-
stroying the cornstalk borer is to root
out the stalks.
In case of oats, a drag or roller
should be used to crush the crop
down. With the warm weather that
is now all over this section OF the
country the various bugs are getting
in their work and If definite and GER
tain methods Of determination are not
used the crops this year will be se~
riously damaged.

This action followed conference
at the department of commerce on a

ment's inspector of hulls ct Norfolk,
Va.
The secretary announced that evil
dence brought out by the inspectors
preliminary inquiry held on board
the Nantucket while that vessel was
making her way into Norfolk with
the Monroe's survivors aboard tend
ed to show that there was negligence
on the part OF Capt. Berry" He added
however, that it would be quite i'm
proper to pass upon that question at
this time, further than to decide that
there is sufficient evidence to require
that charges be preferred against
Capt. Berry, and that the question OF
his innocence or guilt be made the
subject of further investigation"
