There have been many reels Of
moving pictures exhibited in Green
wood, but none to compare with the
one Fountains will show at the
Greenwood Theatre on Friday at $3.50
p. m. We have seen train wrecks,
battle scenes, submarine views, horses
,plunging from cliffs, nobility at play,
whaling crews in the Arctic, lion
hunting in the African jungles, etc.,
but this newest product Of the silent
drama is the showing of front lacing
corsets on living models. The theatre
has been engaged for this special
matinee, and women only will be in
attendance. Many Of their male pa
irons will be disappointed at learn
ing that they are to be excluded from
this theatre on the afternoon mention
ed, but as the seating capacity will be
taxed, and as the film is Of direct in
terest to women only, the men, will
have to content themselves with a

WOMEN ONLY" MOVIE
FEATURING C0RSETS
w. T. Fountain Has Engaged The Greenwood
Theatre For Special Matinee.

Gossard corsets is shown. Through
clever manipulation Of the motion pic
ture camera, it is possible, at the
same time, to see two likenesses Of
each model advancing on the screen.
In this way the contrast between the
uncorseted figure of each model 10
clearly shown. Around the fitting
and model promenade, there has been
written q very interesting story en-
titled, "The Social Key Fountains
is to be congratulated on their ability
to secure an early run on q Aim in
such great demand.
Complimentary passes are being is
sued in the corset department of
Fountains. Moving pictures are GER
tainly bringing to our doors sights
that few years ago were considered
far beyond the reach of the average
man or woman. 1t is the educating,
as well as the entertaining feature Of
moving pictures that has made pos
sible the wonderful success they now
enjoy, and Fountains will undoubted-
,ly find themselves besieged for re-
quests to this matinee for women
only,

GEORGE S. DONNELL DIES.

Washington, Sept. Former Mis-
sissippian George S. Donnell, once
chief clerk of the census and for the
last Is years employed at the offices
of the Civil Service Commission, died
at his residence in this city yesterday
afternoon.
Funeral services will be held at 2
o'clock tomorrow afternoon, Rev. Jo-
seph T. Kelley of the Fourth Presby-
terian church, officiating. Interment
will be in Oak Hill Cemetery.
Mr.. Donnell was a native of Jack

ed on the stats of several newspapers

yellow fever epidemic, he was in
charge of the relief work of the How

tion, he was appointed chief clerk of

il Service Commission, and in 1906
was sent to Atlanta, Ca, as secretary
of the Fifth Civil Service District.
Four years ago he was transferred to
the Washington offices of the COM
mission, where he remained continu-
ally until the time Of his death.

LIQUOR LAW ATTACKED.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 25-Assistant
Attorney-Gen Easterling is pre-.
pairing his brief to be submitted to the
supreme court in special sitting In
banc next Monday morning, when the
initiative and referendum act case will
be brought up by agreement. The
attorney-general contends that the in
itiative and referendum amendment
was clearly and legally adopted, not
withstanding the decision of Chancel-
lor Taylor that it was not. The whole
state awaits the final adjudication of
this legal dispute with much interest,
and if the new law is sustained the vo-
ters will get chance to register their
approval of the state game and fish
law, which legislation was completed
subsequent to the legislative action on
the initiative and referendum statute.
Meanwhile the operation of the
game law is suspended in the opinion
Of the attorney-general's department,
which has so declared in a recent de-
cision rendered in Lee County on re-
quest.
As to the new liquor law the stu
alton is different, as that piece of leg
islation was completed prior to the
initiative and referendum enactment
and in the same opinion the depart
ment expresses the belief that the re-
strictive statute is in full force and
must be obeyed.

EcHUM BoB's SPORTING TALK.

New York, Sept. 26.-(Union Asso-
ciated Press From all of the States
where boxing is allowed, reports state
that boxing has received a big boom
Following te statement of the Met
ropolitan Association of the A. A. U.,
Showing that it has proved the most
popular of sports during the last year
from the standpoint of spectacle. 1t
|nesded the word Of just some such
strong Organization as the Hetropol-
titan Association to give pugilism
|big push forward. The A. A. u de-:
clares that boxing was also the most
profitable sport Of the year, and that
lit was through the boxing exhibitions
that the organizations were able to
show a balance this year, instead of
deficit. This by no means proves that
|pugilistic exhibitions have healthy
or wholesome influence. The patrons
Iof prizefghters are nearly all nom
participants; that is, they are not box,
ers themselves. Yet the fabbiest
boxing fan usually the most vocifer-
Gus, and the men who would shrink
at the suggestion of blow aimed in
their direction are the loudest in their
demands for p knockout. The health
lest sports are those which draw fans
who participate in the sports them
selves. 4

According to latest advices reaching

the Germans were reported as moving

This was before the British took
Morval or the French reached the
