there is no more popular or better known
horseman in the South, as he has been

THE FIRST OF MAY
ON MARCH 19TH
The Meaning of This Somswhat
Mysterious Announcement.
IVIOSES MAY, MAGIC AND MYSTERY
j He Makes His First Appearance ?t the
! ????J Academy of Music for the Benefit
of the Citizens' Relief
Association.
There is curiosity all over the city to
know the meaning of a mysterious an?
nouncement which has recently been ap?
pearing in the papers. The same reads
thus:
"See the 1st of May occur ou the lUth
of Marcii?Academy."
The impression at first prevailed that
some expert statistician, who had dis?
tinguished himself in working out the
| puzzle as to when the twentieth century
j began, had again dropped into figures and
j was springing something new upon a
I more or less long-suffering'public. But
I some bright mind has solved the problem,
and now there is widespread pleasure at
! the good news which the solution brings.
WHAT IT MEANS.
It simply means that Moses May, the
only man who ever duplicated the mar?
vellous achievements of Houdini, will
make his first public appearance at the
Academy of Music on the 19t4i of March.
Mr. May has been overwhelmed with re?
quests heretofore to give tbe public an
opportunity to witness his hkil!, but newer
Consented, and only did so this time be?
cause of the fact that the entertainment
on March 19th is for the benefit of. the
Citizens' Relief Association, whose good
work among the poor of the city is beyond
all praise, and who are now more than
ever in need of funds to carry on their
noble work.
Moved by ?this consideration, Manager
T. G. Leath, of the Academy, has con?
sented to donate that popular place of
amusement, with all Its accessories, for
the 'occasion, and a record-breaking as
saa'.blasa ?will take advantage of the first
opportunity to witness Mr. May's truly
wonderful achievements.
CANNOT HOLD HIM.
No handcuffs ever made seem able to
hold him for any length of time, and an
effort will be made to have a unique and
puzzling variety on hand the evening of
March 39th.
Wonderful as is the ski!! displayed by
him in opening handcuffs, still more mys?
terious is the ease with which he escapes
from a trunk, after having been sealed
up in a b.'ig arid securely locked therein.
A new and startling ?feature of his pro?
gramme is me ?? lying uun??? tue?., ?men
must be seen to be appreciated. He has
many others both wonderful and enter?
taining, notably some of the most mys?
terious achievements of th>3 great Ching
Ling Foo.
?MANY FLAT L" RES.
Mr. May will bs distinctly the headliner
of the programm?"*, but there'will be many
other most excellent features. ? There is
no doubt that there will-be a. great de?
mand for tickets, and to meet it they will
be placed on sale to-morrow morning at
Branch R. Allen's. No. Pit" East Main
Street, and at Shepherd's, No. 405 East
Broad Street.
