A wind storm which assumed the slse of a tornado struck the town Sunday evening about supper time, and with the wind was a deluge of water. Considerable damage was done, but the biggest loss was felt by the Million Dollar Pier. There was a wide can- vas-topped shed which extended from tne Hippodrome outward for over SOO feet The timbers were sturdy and wsrs bolted to the pier decking by steel rods. So hard was the wind blowing that the entire structure was rased and/a considerable portion was flung up agalnst/the pretty cottags In which Capt. and Mrs. Toung live. The sight presented after the blow was unlqus, for the cottage was draped with big sheets of canvas and some of the timbers were even found on the roof. NBW OatLBANS By O. M. SAMUEL. GREEN WALL (Arthur B Leopold, mgr.). —Notwithstanding the rain Sunday after- noon. Mortimer M. Thelss's latest edition of "Wine, Woman and Song" opsnsd to a splen- did crowd at the Green wall. The audience was unusually appreciative. The opportuni- ties were much too few, the show dragging terribly during the first part, styled "Studio Life," and never redeeming Itself through- out. Tbe show's worst drawback was the chorus. They are ungainly In appearance, lack experience and seemed to be frightened. Any manager can pick a better bunch around New Orleans in a few hours. William Saxton interpreted a Hebraic Jrole, doing fairly well. Of the male principals, Billy Meehan was much the best, although nobody could be accused of registering a hit. Frances Lee Is ths leading lady. She sings well, but has much to learn about acting. Hiss Lee was much better In vaudeville as "Ths Hysteri- cus Woman In Black. Violet Pearl Is a graceful soubret. When ths audience did not applaud her rendition of "Rum Turn Tiddle," she became peeved, which Isn't what a real soubret sbould do. A few minutes bsfors the finale of the burlesque, Choceeta uncorked a "cooch" danc^ that was Just about the limit In vulgarity and suggestive- ness, although the production Is sprinkled with exceedingly risque lines and business. The only hope for "Wine, Woman and Song" to attract patronage here is through salacity. It Isn't a regular show. SPANISH FORT (Jules F. Bistss, mgr.).— Spanish Fort Opera Co., In "Paul Jones."
