According to the statement OF those
who were present at the time several
people who chanced to be near the
head end Of Train 10 on its arrival
Saturday afternoon at the Augusta
station received something in the way
OF a scare. Near the doorway Of the
express car stood big gas tank such
as is used in connection with soda
fountains, and as the train was COM
ing to a stop the tank toppled over
and fell to the platform, where it
struck on one end, but quickly fell
over and lay directly across the track.
By GOOD luck the train stopped before
the wheels of the car struck the tank
and no damage was done, but there
has been no end Of conjecture as to
what would have been tho result had
the tank, which was charged with
about 4so pounds pressure, exploded.

The Prince Of Pilsen

"The Prince Of Pilsen," probably the
most tuneful as we'll as the most success
full Of musical entertainments Of Ameri-
can authorship will be seen at the Opera
House on Thursday evening. September
Nst.
The popularity of this delightful musi-
cal comedy has beep wholly deserved, by
reason Of the intricate worth of the musi-
cal garniture given it by Gustave Luders.
the innate charm Of the romantic-hum-
orous story provided by Frank Pixley
and no less by the high standing of equip
ment and presentation which has always
been maintained. When it was produced
several seasons ago, its many song hits,
such as 1.-The Message of the Violet"
1.-THE Tale Of the Sea She'll Pictures in
Smoke" and Heidelberg" were borne
on a wave Of popularity over the entire
country, and it is q tribute to their last
ing qualities that the evanescent sons
hits Of all the later day musical corred'es
have not been able to lessen the fav-
oritism in which 1.-The Prince of Pilsen
numbers are held.
There are other reasons for the sus-
tanned interest which gives to this enter
ronage-it has not been permitted to de-
! teriorate one iota from its original stand
ard of excellence. 1t is kept fresh
bright and timely with the natural result
| that 1t remains where 1t has always
stood. In the forthcoming presentation
Charles Horne will play the leading
| comedy role, that Of Hans Wagner, the
Cincinnati brewer. Mr.. Horne is come
dian of natural methods and rpened eX-
perience Endowed with personality
that denotes the born comedian. he brings
into play a mental equipment of high
order. The role Of the dashing, vivacious
widow will be played by Estella Birney
| The cast includes also other well known
players whose names denote an organi-
zation of merit. There will be a large
