The next attraction at the Star Theatre will be “Hello Bill.” Of the play and players the .Atlanta Consti tution of Tuesday says: “ ‘Hello Bill’ thoroughly pleased the audience at the Grand yesterday afternoon. “The play is that of Willis Max well Goodhue. It is a delight ful com edy and suffers little from having been patterned after ‘The Man from Mexi co,’ probably because it is better. The story centers around William Fuller, who is arrested on the night before his wedding in u gambling house raid, and who must have some excuse for separating from his wife directly after the wedding ceremony, as he expects to go to jail for sixty days. “His best man, Christopher Cut ting, who ‘fixes’ things, ascertains taat a commission has been issued to another William Fuller by the United States Government making him a colonel of cavalry for the Spanish- American war. He induces William Fuller to declare that he is the man to whom the commission has been is sued. and therefore directly after the ceremony he tears himself from the arms of his wife and go-s, ostensibly to Cuba, but really to the police sta tion. “Instead of being imprisoned he is fined and for sixty days lives at ‘Mud- ville,’ New Jersey. “The war ends and Colonel’ Ful ler comes home as a general. A re ception is arranged in his honor. The real General Fuller is informed of the reception and goes to Seaside, Long Island, where the entire plot is laid, to attend. Then the amusing situa tions b gin. “James F. McDonald, who takes the part of William Fuller, was fully equal to the possibilities of his part. Arthur L. Cogliser, as the real Gener al Fuller, had a splendid understand ing of his part. S. S Wilrsie, as Christopher Cutting, was all that could have been desired. He made a hit. “The others of the cast, including Thomas S. Sprague, Gideon Burton, Robert Watt, Miss Marion Kirby. Miss Pauline Hickler, Miss Nina Carleton, Miss Corinne Carkeek and Miss Kathryn Vincent, were all good, and did their part towards giving a very creditable performance ” This is a first-class production and deserves the patronage of theatre goers. Following this attraction comes “Prisoner of Zenda’’ and “Old Si Stebbins.” Niggers In the White House. Unchained Poet In Democratic leader, Mo. (Six Mouths Hence.)
