MAGNOLIA. 
The season at Magnolia will soon be 
over. Every day there is a large out- 
pouring of guests from the summer 
hotels, and the baggage vans are piled 
high with trunks and grips of the 
summer visitors returning to their city 
homes for the winter. The life at 
Magnolia will soon settle down after 
the summer hustle and bustle, gaiety 
and pleasure, to its commonplace exis- 
tence of the winter. Even now, al- 
though there are still quite a number 
of guests at the various hotels along 
the shore and although none of the 
cottagers have left as yet, the streets 
present a rather quiet aspect compared 
to that of a short time ago. 
However, there are still some few 
new arrivals who have come down to 
enjoy the early fall at this popular re- 
sort. Though the nights are cool the 
days are perfect. The sea was never 
more beautiful than on these bright 
September days, while the charming 
driveways are now even more charm- 
ing than ever before, with here and 
there a few leaves turning to red or 
gold. 
New Magnolia. 
At the New Magnolia there is stilla 
number of guests, some of the old 
ones remaining and several new ones 
having just arrived. Those at the 
hotel pronounce this the ideal spot 
for the early fall. During the day 
there is every beauty of nature, the 
shore and the country alike, in which 
to delight, every opportunity for 
amusement and recreation, and in the 
cool of the evening there is nothing 
more delightful than to sit in the cosy 
parlors of the hotel after an excellent 
dinner, listening to the sweet strains 
of the music discoursed “by the 
orchestra, under the able leadership 
of Mr. Sabin, and watching the flick- 
ering flames from the driftwood 
piled high in the big fireplace. 
Mrs. J. B. M. Kehln and Mrs. Geo. 
F. Tower of St. Louis came down the 
first of the week and are to remain 
till the closing of the house. 
Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Schulte and 
Miss G. H. Blood of Memphis have 
just come down for the early fall. , 
The Hesperus. 
The Hesperus will stay open until 
about the twentieth of the month. 
There are still quite a few guests at 
this popular hostelry, and several of 
those who have been here since the 
first of the season have been enter- 
taining friends. 
Among the new names noted on the 
register this week are Mrs. Charles 
H. Harlow and Hamilton Harlow of

The Blynman, 
Notwithstanding the lateness of the 
scason, the past week has been a busy 
one at the Blynman. Especially was 
this noted on Sunday when this popu- 
lar house was the centre for many 
automobile and driving parties, no less 
than forty taking dinner here on that 
day.

Tremont Theatre. 
Boston has never had a more pronounced 
theatrical success than the new Ade-Luders’ 
opera, “ The Sho-Gun,” which began its third 
week at the Tremont Monday evening. Since 
the opening night the theatre has been 
packed at every performance, and the en- 
thusiasm of the audiences leaves no room 
for doubt as to the popular success of this 
attraction. “The Sho-Gun” is conceded to 
be the most magnificently mounted produc- 
tion that Henry W. Savage ever has offered 
Boston playgoers, and the piece is sure to 
enjoy unlimited prosperity throughout the 
remainder of itsengagement. George Ade’s 
bright, witty, satirical lines seem even better 
after hearing them two or three times. The 
public evidently appreciates the efforts- of 
everyone connected with the attraction to 
make it touch a higher artistic plane than is 
common in the musical entertainments of 
today. Boston has never seen prettier stage 
pictures and groupings tban George Marion, 
Mr. Savage’s general stage director, has 
arranged in the new opera. Announcement 
comes from the Tremont that the engage- 
ment of “ The Sho-Gun ” is a limited one.
