fun star ted.
"Why?"
Nlcfc Paleveda, -who bills himself as "the lanky lad with the Ions, loose
limbs," Is an eccentrtc comedian who recently played the Queen Theatre, of
Atlanta, Ga. One day, at a matinee, he was seated in the back of the theatre
inhaling^ some fresh air. While he
was seated at the window, a negro
drove up' to haul away some old lum-
ber that was in the back yard. He
was busily engaged in his woric, when,
all of a sudden, he espied Nick in his
"make-up." The negro had never
seen any one made up before and be
mistook Nick for a wild man.
Nick a? once saw that the negro
was afraid and he called the stage
manager and put him wise. Then the
"White folks. I started to Icavie here." said the negro.
... said the stage manager.
'Don't you all see that wild man?" he said, pointing to Nick.
"Oh, he won't hurt you." said the stage manager. "He's tied with a
heavy rope." '
"Well, if he comes out here, there won't be nothing here but the horse
and wagon," said the negro, ■
Neither Nick nor the stage manager could keep a straight face.
While all this was going on the leader of the orchestra came in the
rear for a smoke, and he at once caught the fun. So he got a large piece
of rope that was handy and put it on Nick's wrist and went down stairs
where the negro was.
"White folks, how come you bring that wild man down here where
people work? Please take him up stairs."
"Oh. he won't hurt you," said the orchestra leader. "Don't yon see,
he's tied with a large rope?" -
"Yesi Etttt If he wants to get loose he can sho' break that rope," said
tiie "negro. : ■
Nick then thought he would end the fun. so he made a dash at the
negro. The oiegro tore out like mad, ran up an alley, and was never seen
Since.
This may listen like a "pipe dream," but it is an honest fact.
"All right, here you are," stdd the ex-scout, as he peeled oft ten one-
hundred-franc notes from a huge roll;
The steward was profuse in his thanks, and after a minute or two
left the tent.
He had not gone far before he was stopped by the Colonel, who had
seemed to be in a deep reverie for several minutes. "Come here," said the
Colonel, and the Frenchman, trembling in fear that he might yet have part of
his big tip taken away from him, came up.
"JTou say that you received a tip of five hundred francs once?" .
"Qui, oui, mon Colonel."
"Well, who was the fool that gave it to you?" .
"Why, you. mon Colonel, when you had the big party two years ago."
And Buffalo BUI still enjoys the reputation for liberality, for one little
thing like that can not cure a man of a habit that has become second nature.
Miss Saidle Harris, the pretty and charming Helene Heyer, of Rlda
Johnson Young's amusing comedy. The Ijottery Man. bad & unique experience
while playing the leading feminine role with Victor Moore in The Talk o£
New York last season.
Moore had been trying all season to play a Joke upon Miss Harris, but
the wily young woman always managed to' escape. While the company
was playing in Salt I^ake City Moore tried to perpetrate on her the time-
worn jest of advertising in the local papers for black cats, to be delivered
at her room in the Hotel Knutsford. The advertisement did not appear
until after the company left town, hence the laugh, was again on Moore.
This season Miss Harris was again °a guest at the Knutsford, and on the
second day of her stay she was presented with a bill for ^125. She was
informed that the bill was for damage done furniture, etc., by a small army
of cat merchants the year before, who appeared in answer to the advertise-
ment, and vented their displeasure by plasrf ully devastating the office of
the hotel.
Miss Harris declares that Moore must pay the penalty, and Is racking
her nimble brain to evolve a. *'come-back" on the chubby comedian the next
time they meet.
Perhaps one of the greatest all-round men that ever lived is Col. W. F.
Cody (Buffalo Bill). His strenuous career began early in life, and, at the
age of nine he was riding a pony express for Russell. Majors & Warden, the
great Government freighters, and dodging Indians like he does pass fiends
to-day. Since those early days, the Colonel has visited all parts of the world
and has mingled with more classes of people than almost any living man
and certainly more than any man in his line of business, nils has been
possible because the Colonel has a bona-flde official reputation as being AIjL
that he claims to be as scout, guide, soldier, Indian fighter, pacificator,
pioneer and gentleman.
In the early days of the Colonel's European travels with his great Wild
West, when he was entertained by princes and potentates of all countries,
the Colonel was constantly being.- called upon to reciprocate hospitalities
showered on him. but having no permanent abiding place, he was forced
to do his entertaining either In camp or at hotels, as occasion and circum-
stances demanded. .
In Paris, in 1SS9, after a big round of social honors had been heaped
upon him, the Colonel decided to wipe oR some part of the score and invited
a number of oflictals and others to a banquet to be given at one of the city's
swellest hotels and. In making his arrangements, said to the chief steward:
"Now, look here, I don't want to know or be bothered with any
of the details of this affair. I want to feed and drink about one hundred of
the best people that ever sat down to one table at one time anywhere on
earth and I want you to do the right thing. I leave it all to you and if
you do the thing up right, then I will give you a 'tip* Just twice as big as
the biggest you ever had."
The steward worked hard and the result will be a pleasant memory all
through life for those who were fortunate to be the Colonel's guests that
night
The next day the steward called on the host of the evening before and,
after asking If all was satisfactory to "mon Colonel." and receiving the
assurance that It was. he proceeded to remind In a gentle "Latlnic manner."
the promise about the tip. Now, Buffalo BUMs gome and never goes back
on his word, either to a waiter or to the Government.
"How much was the biggest tip you ever received?" asked the Colonel. <
"Five hundred francs, mon Colonel," responded the kiilght of U>e
white apron.
While Will 3. Donnelly, manager of the Fuller Theatre, at Kalamazoo,
doesn't like publicity, this one must be told about him. Manager Donnelly
made a recent visit to Grand Rapids, to confer with the management of the
local theatre, and hurriedly looking up an old acquaintance at one of the
theatres in the Valley City. Mr. Donnelly inquired at the box oflSce as to the
stage entrance of the theatre. In being offered extreme courtesy, Mr. Donnelly
politely said:
"Oh, never mind going to. all tha,t bother, simply tell Mr. St. Vrain and
Miss Barney that Donnelly of Kalamazoo called and was asking for them."
"Donnelly of Kalamazoo!" retorted the house attache In the box office.
"You don't mean Donnelly of Field's Minstrels, do you?"
"No, not this time," laughingly replied the Fuller manager.
The little incident proved that Mr. Donnelly's fame as the producer of
results for Al. Field's Minstrels will never wear out.
"St. Peter will know him as Al. Field's minstrel agent." chirped in a
bystander.'
And then Mr. Donnelly returned to Kalamazoo.

I A Representative Writer of 1
I POPULAR INSTRUMENTAL
1
i -Tlie remarkable career of Fired. A: Mills, fa-
miliarly known a.» "Kerry Mills," has for many
m months been a toi»ic of interest in th? music
field. BIn!4somiog forth in a modest manner a
few years ago, this versatile composer of the
people's popular dunce music has steadily woTen
himself Into the hearts of the American popd-
lace with a serh-s of dance compositions from his
pen, wliieh have astounded the community.
M Bejclunine^ with his famous Rastns on Parade
about a dozen years ago. he followed this tk-
imarkahle eompostlon with another of even
preater fame, that known as At a Georgia
Camp Meeting;, which may truthfully be said
to h&vti atrained the lar^cest ^output of any like
composition ever penned by an American writer.
^ Xot content with these two masterful works.
V **Kerry** Mills In . rapid succession produced
I such widely^fameil works as Whistline Rnfns,
I Red \Vln;r. The Bam Dance. bearioiT bis name.
I and many other qnalnt- lDStnim?>ntaI nambCTS.
■ Then, also followed a series of original and
«w taking vocal works, such as Childhood. Any
S Old Port In a Sform. I'm Tired of Living Wlth-
Iout VoH. The Wreck of the Good Ship Love,
and kindred songs.
Juat a short tim:.' previous to this ebullition of
musical production. Mr. 3IiUs had- Identified
«2 himself with -the interc-sts, of George^ M. Cohan.
M wfaoi^e many and varied mnidcal compositions
7 were ail turned over to the Kerry BIUls' honse.
I Tliese embraced almost erety famous scmg of
I the hour, and every song which, up to that
1 time, bad been penned by the prolific X'ankee
J* Doodle lad.
«■ It would be a diffienlt task for thfs ncwspa-
M per to enumerate all the many Mills works
1 which have meen promulgated Into the homes
of the American nation, but a brief survey, of
the sales of some of the leading ones wUl prove
Interesting reading. To begin with, tb-j cate-
8 gpry of instrumental pieces wW form an attmc^
2 tive digest.
g Here* are a few of the chief works of that
' I writer, together with their approximate sales.
I taken at random from, a list hnrriedly cnlled
1 In his catalogue. This list Is approximately
^ estimated from memory, or rather from the
2 known tabulations of public record, and will
S convey but a general idea of the ontpnt of the
I total for one year, or two years' sales.

and which include the Ited .Wlnft Honi;:, and the
one of the present day. Valley. Flower. Neither
ilo they comprise the many song successes pub-
llshi-d by .Mr. Mills, and written by other
writers, such as the Georse M. Cohan songs,
the w-orks Asleep lu the Deep, l.x>nei40me. Sum.
mertlme, and other big selling numb >rs that
liuTe sold in the thousands end hundreda of

Kerry Mills has one of the best equlpi>ed
staffs, both In a business way and a profes-
stonal way. that could be evolreil by a modern
music publisher. Every department Is admir-
ably conilueteil and all work Mn clock-work
liaison. One man. Will Redmond, baa been with
him for a number of years, and vows he will
end bis d8y.s with Mills, so firmly la he at-
tacbeil to the man. This reverence Is poaalttly.
Insplreil on account of the fact that be, Red-
mond. sIoKs the Mills' songs, and can appreciate
their sentiment. Mr. Ri*dmond enjoys a pc-
culinr position with Mr. Mills. He is the
"coach singer" for the Brui. Possessed with a
remarkably swei>t and resonant voif^c of high
tenor range, he jiersonally takes hold of all
delinquent or faltering singers who come into
the professional raomg. and "breikg them in"
and trains them for sncceaaful entree Into the
theatrical anil vaudeville field. Be has done
tills for a lifetime.

, Much in keeplnft with modem progress and the
I rapid development of the Twentieth Centnry,
> rauderille also displays the fact that it, too,
is required to malce sncb rapid strides as are
necessary to keep up to the pace set by other
Instltations and Arts and to thns Increase and
maintain in it the popular taste and meet the.
} popular requirements.
! "phe vaudeville stage la a vehicle on which all
that is clever, novel and marvelous Is introduced
to a public endowed with a criterion, merciless,
yet Just, and according^ to the merits adhering
to snch a presentation, if auspicious of success,
I It is either bonnd to rise to the beiehts of
I popularity, or to be cast down to certain fail-
ure. Thus, in vaudeTiile. the originality of an
artist is called into operation; he roust allow his
personality to play a part In paving the road to
success, and with an energy determined at all
, events to sui-mount the obstacles which present
* themselves to the tyro, be aspires to the Elyslan
» fields of poularity.
So far as the utility and scope which the
" variety stage offers, the attractions are con-
densed and moulded in order to adapt themselves
, to the popular taste into an essence teeming
I with interest-sustaining power. On the vaudeville
I stage, the vande-musical artist invariably ap-
peals to the public sentiment, in so far that in-
stead of an audience being bored for two- hours
listening to a disappointing performer at a music
hall or mui«lcale, void of Interest, the vandeville
; habitue, cognizant of this fact, has only to with-
* stand Nuch an attack (for snch It may be deslg-
* natedl for the brief period of from fifteen to
twenty minutes. But TaudeviUe . Terr seldom
assmnes this state of. affairs, for the simple
.reason that . a deficient performer wonid not be
, tolerated for any length of time, while con-
■ trasted with this the acme production thrives in
' the spot light and enjoys fame of the highest
democratic order. The same Darwinian con-
clusion applies to the Tande-mnslcian as it does
la the field of science, *'tbe snrriral of the
fittest.*'
:When we contemplate the real worth of tbu-
devQle. it becomes a most inevitable, yet rea-
' M rtab t**^ truth that when a variety musician
devotes bis whole time to one troncentratlon of
efrort.tfhls talents being thus localized and char-
acterized Id one igiven n>ecialty. the conclusive
and necessary result is that he becomes affinent
in: that one specialty and a leader In that one
partictdar sphere. He thus transcends from one
ot dlTersified Interests and aims, who iilffuses
his qnalities in many branches and finally loses
trace of all. leaving; no particular brand of suc-
cess upon any attempt. Tbe old saying applies
^■ in this case: "He that sips of many arts tastes
of none;" that where there Is no cooceDtratlon
and purpose there I», no „ pCTf ectlon and tran-
scendency. Music TandeTffle present artists who
hw r-acbed the enviaWe heights where their
energetic and aspiring endeavors have bome
them: this field is open to all manners and kinds
of musical successes; classical and popular, play-
ers and singers, colorature. artists, the great
prima donna to the diminntlTO comedienne.
Whistlers, amazing players of the Tlolin, 'cello,
and almost every conceivable instrument mann-
factnred. These Taude-muslclans are, as it
were, bom upon the stage of vandeville either
to success or failure, if snccessful, to have
their names heralded and aggrandized through-
out the world, thn» rendering the artist the idol
of the people; if- a fallore. to disappear into
nothingness as the chaff is blown and scattered
by the winds and gnsts.
EHch artist thus stm^llng In a field where
only the hardiest competitors may take a stand
and where luck and hazard. play no important
part, is called upon to exercise every muscle,
sinew and nerve in the endeavor to vindicate his
attempt, or by a still greater exertion to super-
sede the clans which he prrsents. Thus the
mirror of success is symbolized In the siiot
light which reveals to the pnbile the concentra-
tioB of purpose and perfection.

Why Import Grand Opera Artists ?
So much Ims been written on this subject that (
Tiie Biilt>oara thonsht tbe opinion ot an artist
nk& Miss Alice Xldsen vbo, altbougb an en- 1
ormons success In U^t opera, yet came oat In
grand opera via tbe European route, would be
of the greatest initerest to Its readers.
IPresh from an automobile ride, with spark*
ling eyes and full ot enthusiasm in her conver-
sation al>out her beloved art, -Miss Nielsen curled
herself up in an arm db&ir, and in a few words,
solved tbe above question.
Her views may tie summed up aa follows;
Voices grow In America; voices can be and
are taught in America, at* weli as auywhtre in
the world; in fact, witii few excei>tions, tbe
best'iBuropean talent comes to America to teadta;
but for operatic work, 'tSte work ot tbe enrinro
artist can only be said to be half done vlieit
the teacher has done all he or ^e can.
Beal operatic artists must have tbe study
of tbe theatre, and, abore all must make tftieir
debut. Operatic conditions are socb in tbis
country tbat it is almost impossiide for a new
artist to secure a di4mt In grand opera. Good
companies usually take only singers witft a'
Knropean education. On the continent ot Europe
Ibeie aie jnauy small opera bouses— every large
town has one^and. conswiucntiy, it is compar-
atively easy for a new singer, who bas a good
voice, to secure a chance to make her dwult.
Tile theatres also all exercise great care id
ti>eir perform a ncTs and tbe reiicarsals are tSior-
ough. wiiereas. In tlliis country, artists <are sup-
posed to have been though tbe European train-
ing mill and are not given the chances to r.-
bearsc and study.
Alias Nielnen was lu the front rank.ot comic
1^>era. acknowledged to be the greatest in tibia
country in trhis line, yvi. ^bc said, for tital^
very reason I bad to commence in Italy and
make my debnt rhere. 1 knew it would be al-
most an Impossibtilty ' for me to break into
grand opera in this country l>cfore my appear-
ance In Euope, so I went to Italy, said Ml as
Nielsen, made tny delbut there, and now it is
easy sailing here, and I am in grand opera
to stay.
Miss Nielsen was very mnplhatic as to the
excellence of the teachers of the United .States,
but she was equally emphatic wben she stated
tbat it is almost impo^tsible for a singer to
get a Brat debut in this country.
"Do you think we will ever get to the point
Where we will have tbe numi^er.ot grand opera
companies there arc in Europe?"
Miss Nielsen opined that we would not, be-
cause tlie American diflered ifrom the European

country only a certain ctass go to the - opera.
In Europe evety one «1io can scrape tocetbn
tbe price, and that la small, goes to beat
grand opera.
"Wbat must one do ito succeed In "grand

"Work." .said Miss Nielsen, "everlastingly
work; always try to do better. Certain natural
gifts, such as voice, dramatic instinct and per-
sonal magnetism must be bom, tbe rest Is work.
Intelligent, Iwinl, everlasting work."
Asked about teacSien. Miss Nielsen said it
was tbe most dllHcult of all subjects, every pu*
pil demanding dllferent treatment, owing to
differences of temperament and voice, la person
who would be the best ot teachers tor one ponll

.n THE BILLBOARD. OCTOBER I. 1910
A Representative Writer of
POPULAR SONG SUCCESSES
1
Whiit Is called the New Era In popular mualc
eoiupoKltlon bas a inaaterlsr apoatle in a man
tersely known as Ted Snyder. ThU New Era
baa not suddenly come uimn u8, however. It
baa bfirn Rmwlog with a gradual hut remark-
able develojiment. for It la but a few years
ago that the tiresome old ballad and the
wbeoiy so-called comic song were products of
unkempt production or foreign manufacture.
Tbeii. suddenly from our midst sprang a clear-
cut new musician, with the "roseate hue ot
youth** and the Tirility of manbood. A few
measures dashed off at random from bis lien
qulcklv demonstrated the youth's abstractness
In bis field. His melodious "flow** seemed to
Stand out like a solatlce. It was fresh,
invigorating, eleratlng. While retentive and
g leasing, it was not unorieinul nor stolen nor
orrowed. Some one quickly asked who "Ted
Snyder" was. Others dubiously scanned the
title page for an elucidation .of the unpoetical
name of tbe author. Still others marvelled at
tbv HUddPB comlns . of a new Sousa in their
midst, for tbe music of Snyder had a jingle of
tbe baud kiuK, with aometUnK more of its own.
Then It dawned upon the community that,
altbongh there waa not much charm to the
trite name of Snyder, there was an "all-fired
lot of staggeratlon*' to his tunes. Suddenly,
in tb* midst of it all there came an overpower-
ing, uingnetic, patriotic song-production which
Hew through the nation like a battle-cry: and.
when tile populace gazed uiwtn My Dream of
tbe U. S. A., It awoke to tbe fact that there
was some meaning to the name of Snyder. The
song .took the land by storm. It was new,
inspiriting. Inspiring, ' Intumescent. There had
been nothing In Its Hue since Paia Dresser's
Bine and Gmjr.
This eoinimsltlon gave Sir Snyder an oppor-
tunity to "look around." so to speak, inas-
much as be himself was staggered by the song's
recepllou and the fame so suddenly thrust upon
bini. For once in his life the budding young
song-writer knew tbe meaning of "Excelsior."
Quickly swinging himself upon the wings
which Dame Fame so ausplcoously fluttered
Ijefore him, younir Snyder l»ore onward. One
song after the other followed. One "hit." as
ttie.v term It, steppetl upon tbe other's beets.
There was no gainsaying the fact that tbe
commereial end of the Snyder domain was of
some Import, for quickly the purse strings of
n brainy business capitalist were undone, and
Mr. llenr.v Waterson took Snyder Into his
keeping. The new firm bt-came known as tbe
Teil Snyder Music Company, the keen and
modest Waterson preferring to credit bis young
confrere with th • intellectual glory. To-day the
Waterson firm stands In a sphere by itself and
uiH>n a iHMlestal of its own.
The earner may wish to learn the cause of
It all. "One song does not make the bank roll
no more than the sparrow tbe summer."
Hence, the following lucid analysis may make
extremely interesting reading- — an analysis that
shall with its development demonstrate the
enormous quantity of coiiies of abeet mnsic that
have crept into the bom:'s of the American
people through the genius of one single com-
poser.
The following songs hy Ted Snyder have each
sold a half a million of copies. This Is no
publisher's estimate. It is no fantastic esti-
. mate. The writer of this article knows It to
be the truth, an Indisputable fact. In teality,
some of the piec*s about to be named . have
reached nearer the million than tbe scml-
mlllion mark. It may l>e true that one or two
of tliem have not been accordiNl tiie same sale
as tbe Beautiful Eyes song, by Mr. Snyder;
still it Is entertaining to read the list and let
the reader estimate the rv>puted sales to bis
personal gratiacalion. Here ate a few of the
leading Knydcr prodnctions in the past few
years. They show tbe lad's skill both foiv vocal
and Instrumental composition — a double talent,
I rarely iwssessed In these days by one writer.

Tbe lyrics of Mr. Snyder's songs are gener-
ally. In fact for tbe most part, with one or
two exceptions, written by a remarkably clever
colleague, Mr. Irving Berlin by name. To this
young genius is to be credited much of tbe
success of Mr. Snyder's inspirations, and Mr.
Snyder is never loth to admit it. In fact be
proudly points to the youthful Berlin's effu-
sions as tbe vehicle for the many Snyder suc-
cesses, and yields genial credit. Their har-
monious "understandings" form one of the sweet
contemplatatlons of tbe music trade, so aptly
and frequently referred to by those "in the
know." .
Snyder is still a young man. He is searceir
more than twenty-Hve years of age. tall, health-
ful and virile, ills life Is apiiarantiy made np
of one desire — work. His love is for bustle
and Industry. Tbe word "Idle" laughs at his
dictionary. Eager to satisfy the world, be
rarely thinks of himself, for he Is dally at his
desk, his nffico, or his piano — from the blushing
ot the morn to tbe graying ot the eve.
Socially. Ted Snyder is a man more than
of tbe ordinary. His temperament may be
called lovable, because there is no other term
to express It. KeHnement' |>ervades his actions
and permeates his association with bis fellow-'
men. He regards none beneath him, and pop-
ularizes himself with the masses because of
this. X'onrtesy and affability seem to be Inbred
with Ti-n Snyder — man, genius and gentleman —
made tbe more pronounced because unpalnted
and slutere.

Acquaintance With Music
Everyone all over the world of civlHsed hu-
man beings tile spiritual iiower of music as an
interpreter of life, as a solvent of the heart,
I* gaining recognition. As the slow, yet te-
slatlesM advance of the tide, as the joyous ar-
rival of morning, so is this widening and warm-
ing of tbe wnrld for all humanity. The phy-
sicians say that the reason a new-born child
cannot bear- tbe light, is that be carries in his
constitution a heredity of the cave-dwelUng
stage of his ancestors, when all eyes were weak
to the Impact of light. Tbe world is growing
Btronger to the reception ot all powerful spir-
itual iinpiugcments, whether of philosophic
thought, which .strives to penetrate the rind of
appearances and get at toe real meanings of
tbe. universe, or literature, which shrinks 'at
no theme which may, by Its exploitation, en-
lighten man, or alleviate bis conditions ot ex-
istence, or art, which sends Its plummet into
the very darkest aliysses of the mind and soul,
to find the feelings which will atford delight
when uttered and physically embodied.
But, as life thus grows complex, the demands
made upon the time ot every cultivated person
grow nnao^ till at time we cry out with Cow-
prr, "O! for a lodge In some vast wilderness!"
O! for a few days of unsophisticated, unln-
tellectnaliied time. However, with each new
demand, u|)on our thick-crownetl hours, the In-
ventive Imagination of man finds a new and
more speedy way : to deliver tbe spiritual goods
which we crave. .
One of thn latest things to he created Is a
machine, which, being attached to a piano, will
recon) automatically the tones which a musi-
cian makes when improvising. By this tune,
photography, the literature of the future will
be greatly enriched without doubt, for there is
scarcely a musician of solid education who has
not said, "If I could only remember tbe things
which spring up under my fingers In happy mo-
ments. I am sure 1 could rolnpoM something
beautiful." As IlltisWe M the breath ot a liv-
ing flower is the Inspiration of the improvising
musician. Another matter of the most supreme
moment is that we should have a hearing ac-
quaintance with the thousands ot ' beantifnl
things which have been created by the maatera
of tlie past.
Tbe most diligent student can scarcely learn
during a course of five or more years above
forty or fifty pieces of music, and there are at
least, in the world, 25,000 compositions, great
and small, which are surcharge with emugh
of the essential oil of poetry to be worth - pre-
serving, and worth enjoying.
There are three things to do: first, learn to
Klay. If you are able, and pjay out of your own
eart and nature into tbe music: second, have
a mechanical piano, and by Its means get an
Idea of tbe great compositions. Just as by your
photographs yxni get an idea of the great oil
paintings of the world: and third, go to con-
certs. Each of thi^> three means a musical
cultivation, has some strong advantages, and
some serious limitations. In playing there Is
tbe Intense intimate sense of doing something
which comes from tbe inner nature of yourself,
hut your repertoire Is and must remain a tiny
scrap of tbe mighty world of tones. With the
mechanical instrument you lose something of the
finer graces of thv very highest personal art,
but with little labor and small ext>enae you cao
come to know and recognise . a hundred times
more music than you will ever play with your
fingers or sing w-ltb your throat; and tbttd, in
the concert yon reach the high'>st and richest
and most Imiiersonal rapture of music, hut con-
certs are few and costly.

The term mnsic Is Just about as vague and
as difficult of exact definition as tbe companion
word, literature. What is music, and what is
good mnsic! Is the Ninth Symphony of Beeth-
oven good music, and the Last Rose of Summer
not good mtislcl Is tbe Old Folks at Home true
music, or not, and Is the terrlflc nnflnished
symphony by Anton Bruckner good? These
questions in many forms and many combinations
arise continually in the minds of all who con-
cern themselves with art, either as a business
or an amusement. Possibly no problem in all
the vague yet fascinating realm or aesthetic
science Is so perplexing, yet so absolutely in-
sistent as this very question, what music shall
I relish? My purpose here is rather to state
than to solve this vexed question. I have per-
sonally the widest affiliations with the art in
every possible form, so that if 1 find a landed
opera or symphony dull. I will say so When occa-
sion demands, to any or to all. and on the other
hand, if 1 admire a piece of music I do not
care If the snpercilkins curl wrinkles the Ilpa
of nine "musicians out of every ten.
A few evenings since I was professionally en-
gaged to bear and pass verdict upon the Sousa
Band, and I was more than ever Impressed with
the curious phenomenon of his popularity. I can
not say that these fascinating melodies of his
effect me with the highest sort of musical de-
light: they are, of course, like all snch music,
meagre in resource, monotonous In their rhythm,
simple, almost bald in their barmonlxatlon. and
yet they do catch the ear and the memory, -One
finds himself humming them and trying to keep
step to their remembered strains as he walks.
On that very program of Sousa's there was a
reall; clever transcription ot the Till Enlen-
Spiegel, of Rlrband Strauss. Here was catho-
licity with a vengeance. The Stan and Stripes
Forever, done by a braaa band, and the wildest
and boldest ot vaoAvn orchestral geniuses on
the same program. I sbonM say that to deter-
mtna cxceUenee in mode, ira nrast lint ot all
ask the three famooa questions of Goethe: First.
"What did the artist attempt to dol" Second.
"Did he succeedt" Third. "Was It worth do-
ing?" A little German cradle-song which charms
tbe baby to sleep for tbe thousandth time has
assuredly achieved Its aim. Richard Wagner's
Tristan Cnd Isolde, tbe greatest hynm to sex-
love ever written since the days of Solomon's
Song, assuredly attained Its end. Length Is not
a necessary element in all kinds of greatness,
but it may be In some 8<»ts. We can not have
respectable symphony of only 15 minutes' dura-
tion, but if It were three hours long It would
be a fatiguing monstrosity, and yet an Hipera
must be ttiat long to reward ua for the trouble
of going out to see it, A love song may last
but two or three minutes, yet be a masterpiece,
like tlie Ich Uebe Dlch. of Edward Grieg, and
yet a sonata for piano solo should last not less
thiui twenty minutes and may without defect
last thirty.
Again, complexity is not an element, for Tbe
Last Rose of S'nmmer is an Imperishable gem,
so are Schumann's Tranermei. and tbe charming
volksmnslc of the 'German peasant.
A waltz like tbe Beautiful Blue Danube may
be a masterpiece, and so also as is the first
symphony of Bralmis.
Tbe primary test of a good piece of music l.s,
docs It produce delight? Yet here. also, arises
another question as difflcnlt. viz.: delight to
whom!

The pobllsbiae ot popular music In England
Is a atraoge game. Not that I mean tbat It
l» in any sense unsuccessful, or that any one
is entitled to iieave briclcs at those engaged in
It. Yet, all • the same, it Is carried but on
aucb carious lines and with such an extraor-
dinary dlTergeaee of method and opinion that
ta the outsider It appears the most hopeless
tangle of interests that the brain of man ever
Isrented.
As a question ot - analf sis. the trade divides
itself into two sections: the one dealing with
the publication of the music ball-Tariety song,
the other the concert or drawing room ballad.
Not only is there a great guU fixed iMtween
tile methods of exploitation of these two Tari-
etles of songs, bat la the case of either, each
pabllaher Is a law auto bimself in the manner
In wtaicb be presents his wares to the public

Dealing with the variety song first, one finds
CD - extraotdlnaty dlTetsity of opinion between
pnbllshers tegaiding the methods which should
be nsed to ensure the popularity of a particular
item. But In ' this connection one great prin-
ciple has to be laid down, which is at the bot-
tom of every device which a publisher may
use. '
It Is that a song, in order to be popular,
should be **attacbed" to some singer of resog-
'nlxed merit. And, as a necessary corollary to
this proposition, it follows that a song must
be written to suit the personality of .a partic-
nlar singer, and that the composer, from the
.commencement, must have this particular per-
■ aonalityv in mind. * .
• Tbenr again, as a natural cofiseqnence ot
tills. It Isr st once apparent that every singer
■ ■of prominence, once be lays hands on a sang
• likely to suit him. Insists, If be can, of hav-
ing; tbe exclusive rigbt of singing it. In fact,
■ in most cases, if be is at the top of the tree,
he regards bimself as granting a favor to the
composer by singing the song in question. But
on this point I shall have something to say
later on. . ..
Let us follow oat.tbe conseqnences of this
practice. A composer starts out with a cor-
taln artist In mind. It may be Harry lAuder.
WUkle Bard, ot a light comedian of the type
ot Cbarles Whittle, or a straight cliaraeter
comedian, like George Lashwood.
Harry Lauder's methods and mannerisms you
are all. ' of course, acquainted with. Wilkie
Bard Is a great natural comedian with some-
thing of the lugubrious manner. But with both
of tbem the majority of their songs depend en-
tirely on tlie singer's personality. For instance,
what man In a thousand could make anything
ot Lander^) I'm the Saftest of the Family?
'Apart from the singer, that particular song
' wonld be as of no account. The same thing
- bapoens with tbe majority of the songs sung by
Wlikle Bard; they simply represent the tri-
umpbs ot Individual method and personality.
Of course, both singers occasionally sing num-
bers that would suit many other artists. I<and-
er's She's My Daisy, or Bard's Sea Shells,
could both be attempted with success by num-
erous other singers. But songs of this typr
are rarities la their, repertoire.
Taking tbe case, however, of Lashwood or
WbHtle, we find that both these artists deal

Ing voice. They are not attempting Intricate
character studies; they merely place before tbe
public a straightforward comic -song.
This leads np to tbe point I wish to make
with regard to the exploitation and sale of
songs of this type. It la that the cherished be-
lief that only a great star artist can make a
commercial success of a song. Is largely a
delusion. If yon are putting a song on tbe
market.: yonr sole- Interest lies In tbe fact
whether people plank down tiielr money and
buy it or not. ^ It doesn't matter two straws
that half of tbe population has got the num-
ber on the brain, and are jarring the nerves
of tbe other balf by Its perpetual repetition.
If tbe public popDlarlty Is not leading yon Into
the direction of. mshuig extra editions on to
the market, then your efforts have largely been
wasted. .
And so I consider tbls fetish that a gre-it
star necessarily :"make8^' a song — from tbe
publlsber's standpoint — Is very largely a mis-
take. Some of the publishers are already com-
ing around to tbls view.
But the futnit.v of the general principle is
shown by the manner In which nearly all tbe
Kreat commercial success are brought about.
The great vehicle for this end Is pantomime.
As you know, pantomimes run from atwut
Christmas to Easter. Without going into the
manner of this particular form of entertain-
ment, I need only mention that the vaudeville
song constitutes its most Important feature.
Now I suppose there are loO or more panto-
mimes pat on ever>' year. And these constitute
the basis of the successful exploitation of pop-
ular songs. - ■
Tlie method employed is this: The leading
variety song publishers, Messrs. Francis, Iisy
and Hunter,, have perhaps balf a dozen songs
which are bound to be great popular successes:
the songs of the year. In fact. Now those
songs may have been banded over to various
slnsers, with the exclusive risht of singing
them in the music halls, but the firm retains
the entire pantomime rights. So it comes aliout
tbat for pantomimes these numbers become
"free .■sooks," and any artist can sing incm,
after having obtained the firm's permission.
Tbe consequence Is that these half dozen fongs
are sung at each of these 150 paQtomi:nns.
Simultaneously they reach the entire ponul irl.-)n
of Groat Britain and for weeks nothing else
Is heard from wblstling errand boys, asplr-int
amateurs or organ grindtn;: artists. Xfm can't
get away from them ttiouRli you shoalO wish.
And naturally tbe firm tikn care that tbe
songs are of tbe type that everyone can slug.
For Instance, take several recent panto nime
successes — I Want You to Be My Olrl. S«.
Su. Su, or Let's All Go Down the Strand. Ev-
eryone could, and did, sing Hiem, .and; •wis*!,
qiientl.v hundreds and hundreds of thousands
of copies were sold.
I would just like to Incorporate a remark
here with regard to tbe position of tbe singer
who had the exclusive music ball * right, lu
reference to what 1 have said on this point,
above. Now, it is a curious fact that the
singing of a popular song in pantomime nas tho
effect of enhancing enormously the reputallun
of the singer who originally sang It. Tjfee,
for Instance, George Elliott's The Chocoltte
Colored Coon song, 1 Used to SIgb for the
Silvery Moon — that song went Into pantomldui
and was sung everywhere. And tbere was a
kind of reflex action. Everyone, wbo beard It
said. "Thafs George Elliott's song." Con-
sequently, so far from lis ubiquity lujuring the
singer when he came to the town again, evcrj--
one would give the number a more upro::ri<'U8
welcome than ever, tiecause they were coiDg
to bear It from tbe Hps of its original expos-
itor.
So pantomime constitutes the great means of
song exploitation In this country. Of cnuse.
all the year round publlsbers are banding out
songs which become popular and . these, of
course, are frequently great commercial suc-
cesses. But speaking broadly, every in, .i: tr
song either comes out of, or goes Into, p.iijto-
mime. ^
Turning now to the ordinary ballad, we fiud
there Is little diflference in the uietlioils em-
ployed. Just as Francis, Day and Hunter,
Witmarks, Sheards constitute the great -pub-
lishers of the music hnll ballad, so do Boosey's,
Cbappells', Mctzlern' lead in the direction . of
the song sung at tlin ordinary concert room. Iii
the latter cases, tlic methods of exploitation
have txwome practically stereotyped, and Eng-
lish publishers in this business seem more than
conservative In method.
The main way, of course, to place a song
before the -public Is to pay a well-known singer
to sing it. The fee for this varies, as a rule,
from one to ten guineas Taken alto-
gether, this methoil. although expensive when
done on a big scale, is fairly successful, pro-
vided the singer suits the song.
Very little advertising In the newspapers Is
done by the publishers. Anything In the wsy
of real, live, attractive advertising seems un-
beard of by them, and would. I believe, bo
rcgatdHl as distinctly below Ibclr dignity. In
fact, the "dignity" of tbe older school of mu-
sic publishers here — whose chief claim to re.
spect lies la their antiquity — Is something be-
yond 'belief. For Instance, I recently applied
to one very old firm for information on a cer-
talu point, and was refused, as "tbe firm never
had anything to do with tbe pressi" The only
advertising tbat Is done generally Is a few
annouuceoients to the effect that "Mr, Smith
will sing Mr. Jones' song. Daylight Fancies, at
MudportH)n-8ea, on Monday next." The en-
terprise Is almost overwhelming.

MUSIC HALLS IN ENGLAND.
The Story of Their Origih and Devel-
opment.
1 liappened to be rumsglng In an old book-
shop the other day when tbe proprietor came
and handed me a number of little paper-covered
volumes which be tbougbt might be In my Hoe.
They were twelve issues of Thomas Iludsou's
Popular Songs and tlie first one was dated 1S18
and the last 1830. Bacb contained about twenty
songs — some of tliem of Inordinate length— and
altogether they represented- the' popular melo-
dies of the day.
But although nearly a bnndted years old
these songs appeared by no means old-fashioned,
in fact as far as types were concerned they dif-
fered very little from those of the present
day. There is a coon song about the c01ore<l
servant -who saw much and said little and
gained much credit thereby; tbere is the tale
of tbe rustic who meets with misfortunes In
London; the amorous vicissitudes ot an attrac-
tive young widow are fully described: and there
Is one quaint little ditty entltletl. Which Fully
Accounts for the. Same, which bears an uncanny
resemblance to one or two recent popular suc-
cesses.
And naturally, skimming through these lit-
tie books, the idea came to me that perhaps
these songs were largely responsible for tbe
palatial music halls and variety theatres ot
the present day. They were the songs which
were sung which were sung at all convivial and
public gatherings. They enlivened the progress
of the condemned man on his last procession —
with bis back to the horses — In the cast to
Tyburn; they met tbe bridegroom on his return
from the church. Altojrether they were part
and parcel of the real life of tbe people.
Thomas Hudson was the great song writer of
his day. Be not only wrote bis songs but be
set them to music and then sang tbem. Certain-
ly he had bis troubles for in his volumes we
find notices saying that be had suffered very
much from having bis music pirated and In fu-
ture be Intended to prosecute anybody selling
unauthorized copies of any of his music. But
be was the first man to set a really popular
type of topical song in vogue, and living at the
time when the germs of the present day music
balls were just appearing, his work bad an
Immense Iniauence On every kind of popular song
music.
Hudson's songs were chiefly sung at what
were known as Tbe Song and Supper Rooms —
which were among tbe most prominent Institu-
tions of London life. They existed all over
the town but their chief stronghold was In tbe
West, between St. lames' and Temple Bar.
Primarily they were eating bouses, but as
time went on tbe vocal and instrumental music
which tbes offered to their patrons became as
great. If not greater, an attraction as tbe food,
excellent as this was. Hot suppers, admirably
cooked and served could be bad up to about
four o'clock In the mornings If those present
were not eating they could just sit and listen :
to the musical attractions provided. The land-
lord bimself took the chair and more often than
not. con'trilmtcd to the harmony of the evening.
At first tbe program was of a simutaneous

D THE BILLBOARD, OCTOBER 1, 1910 n-
OF A
SINGER
The Rise and Success of Immortal Patti, World's Most Famous Soloist— Won Her
Laurels Through Sheer Merit and the Business Acumen That
Later Displayed in a Series of "Farewell" Concert Tours
By GEORGE CECIL.
According to some authorities, "the pcerleu
Adelina" (as the Illimitable Mr. Mapleaon used
to call ber) sang dellgbtfully before abe could
llap In baby language "Pa-pa, Ma-ma," aod
never bad a singing lesson in ber life; otbers
declare tbat sbe worked as hard as -doe* any
modem Mlaa whose misguided parents bare
placed ber under the care of some London
ToIce-eztJngnlaber. As a matter of fact, abe
studied -with a brother of ber mother'* and
with Maurice StnkoMb-^iiot to mention tlw
instruction wbleli abe KcelTsd from her parent!,
especially from her mother, BarUl — who was a
meet successful operatic artist. But long be-
fore, her uncle, and lulneqaently, Strakoscb,
took ber In band, she bad appeared as an Infant
phenomenon, for at the age of seven the little
.PattI sang at a New Tork concert — ber father
and mother having emigrated to America whilst
she was in the swaddling clothes stage. Thus,
having commenced -lier career by excelling as
a singer of florid music, when at the age of
fifteen and a half, she made her debut in opera
as lACIa— just forty-sfeven years ago, bei suc-
cess was at ODce aasnred. After slnglnir various
Bellini and Donlcettl Kdet, she left for England
In the spring of 1861 to Join Mr. E. T. Smith's
company, upon arrlvlns at the Norfolk Bote!
In Arundel street. Strand. Londim. she wan
met by Mr. Mapleson, wbo Informed her tbat
Mr. Smith's financial embarrassments bad re-
sulted in the season being abandoned. At this
Juncture Mr. Gye stepped in, and In a few
weeks, Patti found herself engaged for Covent
Garden, where on May 14 she sang in l4i
Sonambula. A writer of the period declares
that la Amtna's first recitative the lovely, vel-
vety qullty of her Tolce deltgbted tbe most
blase of the tMbltnes, and that h« rendering
of Come per Me Sereno drew a hurricane of
applause. Before completing ber engagement
she also sang Tloletta, Martha, Zerllna — a part
in which the perfection of ber singing baa made
her Zerllna the envy of all her competitors.
Boslna and Lucia. Pattl's connection with
Covent Garden lasted for about twenty years,
and in 1885, after an Interval of several sea-
sons, sbe waa specially engaged for six per-
formances, her roles being Boslna and Tloletta,
eadi of which sbe performed tliree timea. She
also nac npeatedly >t Her Kajeaty'a during
iter l4mdon career, the competition for lier serv-
ices being so keen that the management of
either opera house was ready to make almost
any financial sscrlflce to secure her.
Huge though Pattl's success has t>een In Eng-
land, her greatest triumphs — and her highest
fec a w ere aeenred in America. Deputations
of the leading citizens called upon .her with
addresses of welcome; steam tugs with the most
brazen of brass bands on board, met her steamer,
while regimental bands serenaded ber: ante-
graph huntera thronged the roads leading to
the hotel at which sbe stayed: and upon one
occasion she could not reach tlie wings for the
mob of sdmlrerB. who, forcing their way to
ber dtesslng-room. had blocked the ataliease
communicating.- with the atage. Her special
railway car was a dream of laxur; — >nd a
nightmare of expense, for it coat £12.000, the
walla being covered with glided tapestry, while
everything else. Including the bath and the
woodwork, was on an equally lavish scale.
Wherever she went, the most notsble people
were at ber feet: Senators gave parties In ber
honor, and the King of the Hawaiian Islands
created ber a lady-knigbt of the Boyal Order
of Kaplrland, with "permission to wear the
Insignia ef the order" — ^whatever that may be.
In spite, bowevcr, of the fame which had pre-
ceded Patti, her return In 1S82 (after an ab-
sence of some twenty- two years) would have
been a failure had she not enrolled herself
under the Mapleaon flag. For the concert tour
which sbe bad undertaken did not fulfill ex-
pectations, tb* pabllc preterrins to stay away
to paying ten dollara > seat: She tlierenpon
took parTIn tbe Cincinnati Festiral (whtdi was
a veiT different affair to that wblch la per-
mitted now-a-days) at — according to ber man-
ager — £1,600 a night, this ttelng the highest
fee ever paid to a singer. The following year
she was again engaged by Mr. Mapleson. and
prior to her arrival. New York went Pattl-
mad. Seats were bought np long before the
season opened ; she was met at the docks by
an enormous crowd which bad sat up all night
to aee ber; nnscmpnlons artlats and Imagiim-
tive reporters reveled In in their iq^portnnltles:
and her rooms at the hotel were fined witb
Bowers, including a huge set piece embroidered
with the words "Welcome" in roses. Upon
this memorable occasion, the chorus from the
opera serenaded her at midnight with tbe^ prayer
from II liombardl, the space in front of the
bptel being filU-d with the Diva's admirers.
Her entree as Lucia drew an overflowing houae,
and the public Interest In the diamonds which
she wore with her Tloletta costume, rose to
so great a pitch that "an enterprising ]oor-
nallst calculated the Interest of the money ac-
cruing on ber gema while ainging the part"—
to quote her impresario, ^hc also sang In
Semlramlde. when she was recalled so often
that another Journalist — not to be outdone by
bis confrere — calculated the wear of her sboea
for the evening's performance. Towards the
end of the season, Patti and AlbanI sang the
exquisite duet, Sullaria, Le Nosze dl FIgato
at a charity concert In New Tork — an artlstte
treat which probably never will be equaled:
both alngera were then In their prime, and
each did her best to earn the approval of the
audience. Upon this occasion rattt gave a par-
ticularly delightful rendering of the diflleult
Walts song from Romeo et Juliette, singing it in
Italian, according to the cDitom whldn pt«-
vailed at that time.
^ In U88 Patti paid aiiatlicr Tlilt to the Statn.

8MW W|l
Ladra — a work which failed to charm the critics,
who could only find words of praEse for the
stuOTed magpie wblch has to fly down to tbe
stage, seize tbe spoon and soar upwards Into
the flies. Bosslnl's opera, therefore, was
Hhelved, and the next appearance of the prima
donna assolata was in £manl. During this
tour (for which sbe received a thousand pounds
a performance) she also sang Tloletta — a role
for which she used to have a particular liking,
Talentlna, and other part*. Yet the. Mason
was not a success for the unfortunate man-
ager, and when the company arrived at Mon-
Wlillst In America, Patti had several atrange
experii.*uces of - the . native new^aper reporter.
Upon one occasion when sbe caught cold from
driving In an open carriage, one of these per-
sons proved tbe cause of her ailment by ascer-
taining the amount of ber bill at the local
livery stables, and when In 1884 she waa en
route for San Francisco, the train was boarded
by a "press-man," who declared that If he
was not allowed to interview Patti, he would
telegraph to his rascally employer tliat ibe
was too ill to sing. Thanks to her tact, tbe
reporter not only received anawers -to all blB

treal, the famous Patti car (with Patti asleep
inside) was seized fOr debt. Eventually it was
released, and Patti awoke without kno^ving
what bad happened. A little later, "tbe blgb-
est paid prima donna on earth" (as an Amer-
ican reporter once dubbed her) sang at Chicago,
making her debut in Crlsplno e la Comare — an
opera oy Rlce| which has long hsen forgotten.
Whilst BlllDjr this engagcmt'nt, a contretempts
occurred which resulted in Patti registering a
vow never to again sing in tbe opera house
with Gerster, wbo. according to Patti, pos- I
sessed the "evil eye." At a performance of
Les Huguenots a Iari;e numtier of bouquets,
which should have been handed up to Fatti
(the Talentlna of tbe evening) after the dnet-
wltta Maieello, were passed across tiie oiches-
tra to her at the conclualon of tbe first act In
which Valentine practically has nothing to do.
It waa thought by her that this was done to
enhance tbe value of Gerster'a Margherlta dl
Vallols — and to make her aptioar ridiculous.
Indeed, such was ber superstitious dread of
Gerster's evil Influence, that, according to the
entertaining Mr. Mapleson, she Invariably "ex-
tended her third, first and fourth fingers in the i
direction of the anpi>os4 d sorceress when pass-

the night of her first appearance arrived, the
city was all agog wltli excitement. - The even-

the death of the Marquis de Canx. with whom

EARLY STRUGGLES OF A CELEB-
RITY. THE LIFE OF YVETTE
GUILBERT.
"From eight o'clock until midnlgbt my mother
and 1 were canvassing for orders, entering every
little shop in tbe slums to try and sell the re-
sults of onr afternoon's needlework — four hours
tramping In the rain and tbe snow and the
frost!
"Tbe miles we used to walk with our feet
soaked! What Joy when we were snrcesstul!
It meant food and tbe means to live for two or
three days."
• « ••••••••
This is one of Yvette Ouilbert's early mem-
ories, as she tells It berself In tbe flrat part
of a book devoted to her career. She describes
simply and sincerely ber rise from abject
poverty In a Paris slum to the world fame which
now is hers.
Rer struggles were very bitter. Ever since
she was twelve years old she has earned her
llvellbood. from the time when her father
gambled away Ms salary of twentv-flve dollars
aweek and ber mother kept bouse and home
together by means of dressmaking and bead-
making. ^
Those were tbe days when Tvette. dreaming
nothing of the stage and Its victories, used to
work from seven o'clOTk In the momln(t until
eleven o'clock at night for sixty cents a day;
wben fornltnre and little hoasehold eltMts were
pawned for bread. So the years of battling
against poverty went on until Tvette became a
model for a ladies' tailor at flfteen dollars a
month and all found.
There were fines for being late. "1 was a
model of punctuality in those days." she says.
"I have remained so all mv life: for In the
eighteen years I have been on the stage 1 have
never kept anyone waiting a single moment.
After that she went to the "Printemps." on<?
of the great Paris stores, and a brief time af-
terwards she started a dressmaking business on
her own account. One of her customers was a
Madame X.— a bad payer. She writes:
"Fifteen years ago I met this lady agiin. It
was at an 'at honie' where I was singing, and
I beard her speaking abont me In shrtU, sneer-
ing tones. ■ ....
•• "She wasn't quite such a success,* I beara
her say: 'when she was mnning abont the
streets In threadbare shoes. When I uiwd to
know her She was — would you believe "?— n
wretched errand girl. Now tonight she pretends
she does not know me!*
•I tamed 'round at this and with a sweet
smile and In a pcrfectiv calm voice answered:
'You are making a -mistake, dear mirtsme.
That little errand girl of other dava his hy n«

how her errand was to call at your hnase ana
ask for a settlement of yonr scconnt.' "
One day an "oldish man" followed Gnllh»rt
and Introrlnced himself as Zldler. the minager
of the Hippodrome. "I propose to elver yon

"Dear BUI:
"If you have never been a song writer, you
can not realize how we shy creatures dread si-e-
ing our names in print. It is this very thing
which malses it - so difficuH for publisbers to
secure manns47ipts. In -the ease of '1 Wish
I Had a Girl,' the first song written by Uiss
lie Boy and myself, we had no end of trouble
on this account.
"The publishers received us with open arms.
They told us In glowing terms how It thrUletl
their hearts with joy to find that two more had
joined the ranks of the all too few who made
life bright by submitting mannscrlpta. I think
'ranks' was the word. They did their bnmblc
an honr has passed be has put on paper the first
few lines. Thus, some great line, such as
* 'Twas a summer day In the month of Hay,
when a youth and maid did stray,' is added to
the gems of literature. Before many hours more
he has performed such miracles as rhyming
'home* with 'alone,' and has again originated
that beautiful line about 'Love as bright as the
stars above.'
"£re many days have passed, he has finished
the entire lyric, possibly a tew parodies, which
will come in bandy if the song becomes popular.
He then wires bis composer or goes around to
the various scenes such geniuses are woat to
frequent; and if none of the bartenders know hla
whereabouts he thinks possibly he may be at
home. (This is always merely a conjecture).
"At any ;ate, he finally locates him, and
tells him he has something 'up his sleeve.'
"Dear Billboard: — 1 started - to write an ar-
ticle for you but fell asleep at the machine;
and some patient from the asylum next door
came In and has been fooling with my type-
writer. It is too late to write another article
now. and you'U have to use this or not Issue
any paper this week. I'm sorry, but Whom does
that help?
"Regretfully,
(Signed) 'tUTS KAHN."
Apparently, Mr. Kahn Is at peace with the
world. In view of the fact that he recently
was the recipient of one thousand real United
States dollars, which were paid over by WUl

" 'Tig a very fine world that we live in:
To lend or to spend or to give In."
But to skim oS the cream of a song not one's
own.
Is the easiest snap that's ever been known.
"Be that as It may," we do not believe that
there is nothing new onder the sun. Candidly,
we are of the opinion that just as the rolling
stone often acquires a beautiful polish, so a
song tunning the gamut of claimants may Im-
prove in transit, and by evolution be decidedly
benefited. At present there are more than a
few "improvers" who choose material and re-
hash and tone witii good results. These song
doctors are artists in tbelr line; so nmch so. In
fact, that they seldom lose a case. They are
Ingenious if not ingennons workers; certainly
are they willing. However, it may not advised-
ly be said that the conscientlons writers of
original music are in the minority. The cur-
rent epoch ia the history of music is as replete
with authors and composers as any period of
time In the annals of the business. If their eon-
tiibations are sot as endormg or their style
as edifying and noticeable as In other years,
blame it on the tiltlmate consumer, the public,
whose demands govern and are responsible for
the quantity and quality of the prodnction. The
publisher caters to this public. The writers, of
necessity, direct their efforts accordingly. Prac-
tically, tiielr coarse Is charted for them. What
they give us is a reflection of public reqtrtre-
ments. In the past it has been sentimental bal-
lads, coon SOD??, ragtime and now, apparently.
It is a passion for the song with risqne lyrics
and a sensnons swin?. It is a chameleon-lifee
Situation, with the song writers doing the color
change. Speaking of song writers, yon have, of
conrse, heard of Gns Kabn. He is responsible
Xor the beantlfol words of Only a Sfan. which
Is at present making snch a bit In Jumping
Jnpiter. Kahn also famished the lyrics for
I wish t Had a Girl. He is a representative
type of the newest schooL We are in receipt
of a letter from ilr. Kahn In response to a
request for a few words written from the view-
point of the writer who has done things and
Who should know how they were done. Mr.
best to make ns feel welcome. One publisher
even went so far as to send ont word occasion-
ally- that be was not In, just so we conld call
again.
"Tl -re was one wlio ffid not see at a glance
that- the song would sweep the country. And
as for flnanaal inducements — w^, one of the
beauties of the mnsic business is the supreme
IndUEei...ice to money in preference to true
Art (spell It with a capital). But they all In-
sisted that our names appear on the title page.
We kept carrying the manuscript back and forth
for over a year, if 1 rememt>er rightly, tbe
world kept whirling around as per usual.
"We finally bowed to the inevitable (which,
by the way. Is a very - pretty phrase, and please
tell the printer to be careful with It) and per-
mitted the .song to go forth into tbe world,
names and all. I mention these facts, not, as
some may think, because I've got to fill a cer-
tain amount of space, and care not how I do It,
but to emphasize how writers hate even the
thoqgirt of having their names in nrmt.
"Xlierefore, wten I received your request for
an article above mv signature, I pondered long
and deeply. I should Iiave contlnned to do so
for some time longer, but 1 feared you might go
to press in the meantlme-
"Whlch reminds that I was to wri-te an ar-
ticle. To work, men, we have -a hard night
before us.' as ShakfSiiCare did NOT sav —
"Xon desire the history of a song, from the
time when it flzst takes seed in the breast of
the humble author (modest chap), until It blos-
soms forth In all its splendor to enrich tbe
world with its fragrance. (I'll break that
typewriter yet.) Weil. Ijere goes:
"Picture a lyric writer seated on the veranda
of his summer home, with a tbougbtful expres-
sion and cousiderahle sunburn on his massive
brow. He is smoking a fifty-cent cigar, and
seems at -peace with all the world. Suddeni.v
hU coantenance ia llgbted up and be dashes
madly Into the house for a lead pencIL He
overturns several tboasand-dollar - pedestals on
bis merry way, but no matter, there Is work
to be done; and, liesldes. they don't belong to
bim.- He secures tbe pencil, tears otf bis cnft.
If be wears any, and starts writing. Before
This, of conrse, in case he has written it on his
cuff. The composer reads the lyric cheerfully
and cries "We have a lilt.' He then daslies
to the piano, runs his hand lightly through his
hair (It he has any — ^lulr, I mean), and Is im-
mediately Inspired. . If he writes a melody
which some crook has stdat from him months
before, that Is a misfortune.
"When the song is finally completed the writ-
ers inform tbelr favorite publishers and ask
bids on It. There Is then a wild scramble among
the pnbllsbers; and In a few days tbe writers
are delnged with offers for the manuscript.
This Is really the hardest part of song writing.
The authors have a feeling of tender regard for
every one of the pObllShers and realize that their
dfoision must cause many aching bearts. Some-
times they never can decide; and. as a result,
many manuscripts remain unpiiblisbed, and are
lost to the world forever.
''Wf snail assume that the song in question
Is published. The publisher consults tbe writ-
ers atom- tbe style of title page desired and
tl'ere are often bitter wrangles on this subject^
because the authors resent the publisher's de-
sire to spend such fabulous sums for the design.
Tbe song is finally brought forth and the sales
mount up and up into tbe mllll<ms. Some think
it Is the line atwnt 'love and above,* and others
the peculiar esthetic value of tbe delicious
phrase 'did stray,' which makes the public so
clamorous for copies. . Some think It Is tbe mel-
ody, bnt these never dare mention It to tbe
I.vrIc writer; and vice versa. (This is Latin for
etcetera.)
"Tbe rliflHciilt part of song publishing Is to
prevent too many singers from nsing it at once.
This makes tbe song popular too qnicfcly, and is
what Is scicntlScally known as Mnurderlng' It.
An instance of this kind occurred with one of
our songs, wherein it was sung in two live-
cent theatres on the same block and on tbe
same night. There were so many people walk-
ing up and down the street whistling the beau-
tifnl melody that a number of peevish persons
complained to the police that they could not
sleep. It was hard for the imliccmen to nn-
deretand bow any one should have such dlfil-
culty; but it hurt the song.
with keen business foresight Mr. Kahn and
Miss Lie Boy are -willing to cede to blm the
royalties expected to exceed In amount the cash
consideration in the sale outright. TUa Itttls
transacUoit relieves them of the ~ nneertalntles
Incidental to contingent earnings. This Is an
example of true harmODy In the music tmaliMsa.
In order that tbis barmony exists between th*
composer and the publisher, the music mast ba
of the sort that will make money. To attain
this end, the song must convey an appeal to the
pnbllc. It must be exploited and Inonilit to
their 'buying notice by eitb^ good, hard ^'plug-
ging" or well-placed advertising, or, preferably,
both. Material ajmreclatlon Is what coontl with
tbe men who are In the hnslness for mtaj tM>
wms, bnt NOT for tbelr hssHb. Good adver-
Using win Impel notice. Gontlnnons "plng-
giog" will create and mslntain Interest, but as
an Incentive that anggests and prompts a trip to
the pocketbook there Is nothing that can con-
sistently take the place of real merit. Many
songs masquerade, cloaked In a manufactured
reputation and are forced to general attention
by pnbllBhers, wito Insist that the pidillc ac-
cept them as "hita," In some instances this
method has a short-lived success, but, on the
whole, "it can't be did." To actually "put
over" a real hit, the poblisber is up lEBlnst the
same selling proposition as is any other business
man who has "goods" to sell. He figures hli
profits by the sales, and the sales, of course, are
governed by the demand. Naturally, the onal-
ity of the "goods" is adapted to tbe require-
ments of those who create the demand and piT
the freight. A day with a busy music pub-
lisher -would cover twelve rushing hours, ponc-
tnated at frequent intervals with snr{«laeB,
It would prove a revelation to tbe tyro and tbe
nninltlsted one vbo believes that the world of
music Is amysterioos realm where artistic
temperament and Inspiration prevail. There are
BiKh things, undoubtedly, but In the music pnb-
llshing business they are not glaringly obtrusive.
The offlee «f the publisher tm a place of bosUiess.

CHICAGO OFFICES OF PUBLISHERS
Change in Conditions During the Past Decade Renders It Essential That All
Metropolitan Publishers Maintain Offices in the Western Metropolis, ^
Whereas They Were Once Only an Extravagance
By TOM MAYO GEARY.
• 1
B

Some years ago, and not so very many years
at tbat — only about a decade or so — in the
times that music publishers are wont to de-
scribe as "the days wbea there was big moaey
In tbe publishing game," and when the writer
recelred four or" five cent royalty contracts a
Chicago branch of a New York mu^ic p'ub-
llsber was considered about as necessary as a
fifth wheel to a wagon. Of course, some of
them had Chicago offices, but for so real pur-
pose other than for the prestige It gave them
to claim the same. Only the inccesstul ones
coaia afford a branch here, and the maintenance
of It was charged np to adTertlslng.
I remember making a trip to Cblcaso about
ten years ago, and while here vUltlng the
offlces of tbe Howley & Dresser Company.
Shortly after, when I returned to New York.
I met Paul Dresser one night In tbe Hotel Marl-
boro, and told blm about being in tbe Cblcago
branch, and In the course of our conversation,
Tentnred the opinion that tbe Chicaii;o office
was, no doubt, an Important factor in the
snccess which the Howley & Dresser Company
were then enjoying, Paul laughed, and, when
I tinestloned blm about It, replied In his
don't hare to go to New York to get booked.
Acts can be liept working for a couple of years
throuBh the Middle West, and not depend on
New York for a single engagement. Only a
few years ago the Western VaudeTlile Managers'
Association gave a certain act contracts for
flfty-two weeks' consecutive work. We under-
stand that It Is a rare thing to glTe contracts
that far abead, bnt it merev shows how much
time can be booked out ot Chicago, and that
is only from one office.
The Morris office can keep an act working
several weeks, as can the S. & C. office, and
when yon start to think of the "time" that
other agents, such as Walter Keefe, Hodkins.
Pantages' office, Frank Doyle and the rest
have, it becomes a tedious proposition to iry
to figure up all the "time." Of course, we
are not now considering the big star act, neith-
er are we figuring on the real cheap act, bnt
merely the real vaudeville act of fsood calibre.
All the figuring brings us down to the <|ne3-
tlon: How Is the publisher going to get his
songs sung by this multitude ot acts? and the
only answer is through Chicago representation.
Some New York publishers have a system by
which they follow up tbe routes of acts and
for others of the same calibre to be publisbe'1.
Of late, both the public and the artist have
revolted against this type of song — wtilch has
really been a cancer in the heart of the music
business — and will not tolerate them any long-
er.
The present season promises a return to tbe
clean song, the stirring march, ballads like
Good-bye, Dolly Gray,'*^ the qnalnt Sontbem
serenades and the straight lore song^ln other
words, the kind of songs that have kept the
country singing for years, and the class of
anngs on which tbe founding of the music busi-
ness Is established. For this. let us be thank-
ful.
A MUSICAL KAL EIDOSCOPE.
By VAK.
Well, well — ^you do not know why this Is
entitled a kaleidoscope? Why, the reason is
plain. A kaleidoscope Is a most Ingenious
scientific toy, consisting of a tube, made by
fastening three mirrors together and closing the
lower end of the triangular space tbus formed
I ing, with rapturous empressment, "My dear
' man, that is the best 1 ever heard you play."
Be! Canto is talked of a vast deal now-a-
dnys by people who would not recognize It on
the street stiould they meet it there of a sunny
Saturday afternoon in May. Bel Canto means
that kind of singing which tbe Italians of the
eighteenth century, especially Maestro Porpora,
developed. It gives the leading place to the
voice, and puts the words in a secondary place.
In It the voice la made as much as possible an
Instrument of music, a tone creator. There are
two chief elements in Bel Canto, viz; Cantilena,
or flowing, simple tone, and decoration or color-
atura. Each Is beautiful, after Its own kind, and
each belongs to Bel Canto. For fifty years or
more there has been a decided trend of the feel-
Ingof the moslcal world away from this pare
enpbonlons Tocallsm, towaird a style wntch
clothes the words with less drapery and with
a more exact contoar. However, tbe Bel Canto
Is waking np again. The human voice has
Just as good a right to be bird-like and spon-
taneously melodic as the violin or the fiute,
which are first cousins of the soprano voice.
This strong set of the didactic spirit against
cantilena, and especially against tone-chains

characteristic way, by saying: "Tom. we need
that Chicago office about as much as a fi!*h
needs feathers."
"What, then," I asked, "Is the need of keep-
ing It?"
He said: "There Isn't any need; we simply
keep It for tbe accommodation of tbe perform-
ers singing our songs. When they get to Clil-
cago, and are playing around, they can receive
their mail, write letters, loaf aroond there,
and In general make It their headquarters while
In that territory."
"But," I argued, "don't you 'land' a lot of
acts In Chicago to sing your songs?"
He came back by saying: "They've ail g)t to
come to New York to get booked, and we *1and'
them here."
Tliat sums up the general opinion of Chi-
cago, and It may have been right at that time,
but In the music business, as in every other
game, tfane works many changes, and the con-
ditions that prevail now are vastly different
from the conditions ten years ago.
Many of . tbe New York music publishers who
had branches In Chicago years ago, grew tired
of maintaining what was at that time a use-
less department, and closed' them up: but In
tbe last few years they have been compelled
to reopen them. I say compelled advls?dl.v,
because some of them did it against their will,
but when they saw hits being made that ni-ver
saw New York, they found that to get the
western business they had to have repre enta-
tlon In the West, meet tbe western acts, and
keen In toucb with conditions here.
Trie fact was brought borne to them that there
are thousands of acts In the Middle We^t
working every week that don't see New Y'ork
once In a year or two.
With the advent ot the ten cent theatre
came the revolntlon of the music business as
well as the vaudeville game, and as the "store
show" gradually educated tbe patron to vau-
deville, the patron In time grew more exacting.
They wanted more acts and better acta, which
widened the Held anil at the same time In-
Creased the managers' weekly salary list, until
he was forced to either raise bis prices or
build larger places — generally both — to accom-
modate the patrons. Tbns. the "store show"
gradually gave way to the Taiidevllle theatre,
□ntll now there Is scarcely a town worth men-
tioning that can not boast of at least one
vaodevllle bouse — some towns, two or three —
where they aje offering acts and paying sal-
arlei that would have been thought linposslhio
a few years' ago. All ot tbls has, of coarse,
necessitated the booking of thousands of acts,
and the Important part of It all Is that they
mall the songs to them, and with what results?
Simply, that sometimes the performer receives
them, and sometimes not, and when It docs
happen to reach blm. and be doesn't nnderiitand
music, he generally looks up some pianist in
the town he Is playing, saying: "Just received
a bunch of new music from New York. Try
'em over till I see If 1 can get one to fit
me." The pianist may not have either time
or Inclination to Iwther about anything In wiilch
he Is not directly Interested, and even If ne has,
he doesn't know the writer's conception of the
song — and some ot them don't try to find It—
and. consequently, can not Interpret It prop-
erly. He plays them over one after another
in a perfunctory sort of manner, and then
hands them back, saying: "There's nothing any
good in that bunch." The performer naturally
is not Impressed with the numbers, and doesn't
give them another thought until he hears some
one else make a "bit" with one of the songs,
and then wonders why he did not like It In
the beginning. lo that way many a possible
"hit" has been "killed."
On the other hand, Chicago Is the distrib-
uting point for the majority of acts: thev book
from there: they work In and aroaud there;
and the Chicago representative having a chance
to see them work, knows what style of song
will suit them best. He can see situations
where certain songs would fit In the acts to
advantage by bringing more applause and more
salary. He has offlces where artists can learn
tbe songs properly, and competent pianists who
understand the points of the dtfiTerent song^.
They arc able to demonstrate them, can ar-
range the harmony to suit the particular needs
of tbe difterent voices. Introduce "business,"
and In a multitude of ways help an act.
It might be well In passing to add that few
people realize the amount of this work which
Is accompiisbed. One often hears of a singer
"making a song," but In many instances It is
the song that makes the singer. Laclr of tlmb'
and space la the only thing that preventb my
citing many cases where certain songs have
been the turning point In the career of many
acts, who have since climbed the ladder of suc-
cess. Some one once- said: "Good songs neeil
good singers," which Is true. However. It is
equally true that good singers need good songs,
and speaking of good songs It is not amiss .it
this time for every self-respectlnfr artist and
writer to rejoice at the short life and early
death of the unclean song.
I.ast season saw tbe birth of some songs
of which tbe least said the better. One of them
managed to create some talk which was the cue
by a circular disk of ground or painted glass
which may permit only softened white light to
enter. At the upper end of the threa-cornered
tube is an eye-hole. Now, into this space are
tumbled at random faiggledy piggledy, a vast
number of bits of glass. These are of all sizes
and of all imaginable colors. As you turn tbe
kaleidoscope around, these bits of tinted glass.
In a confused heap, cast their light npon the
mirrors, which arrange the spots ot color Into
perfect patterns of parti-colored and symmetri-
cal designs.
In our kaleidoscope we will cast thousands
of varied things, instructive, amusing, historic
and scientific, critical and descriptive, and the
imagination of the reader, acting together with
his memory and his judgment, must 'make the
tbree-cwnered tube and bring lieanty and order
out of the mixtnm coinposlom.
This Is the bow of Uncle Sophomore.'
About tnenty-flve years ago In Cincinnati,
there was a stalwart German pianist and com-
poser, who. being an "all-'round" musician,
was called upon for all manner of musical serv-
ices. In the orchestra nnder Theodore Thomas,
who was then living In Cincinnati, was a most
talented cellist who had endless nimbleness and
facility npon bis instrument, but who was ex-
tremely fond of the dainty lace-work and the
sentimental effects of his Instrument.
1 win name the burly-piano pummeler Prof.
Tastenscblaeger. and the agile Tlollncellist
Prof. Seltenkratxer, for they both were Ger-
mans. A wealthy lady . of the city arranged
a series of five cello recitals for the benefit of
tbe artist, and engaged the robust pianist
to support the cello upon the piano. At tho
rehearsals Seltenkratxer kept whining out in
a little, wistful, polite voice: "My dear Tasten-
schlaeger, please a leetle softer." After a
dozen or more requests of this sort, Tasten-
scblaeger grew vexed and determined upon re-
venge, Tney were doing one of tliose pretty
trifles In which the cello, after a deal of flut-
tering and trilling, ends upon a high, whisper-
ing harmonic as sweet and aa w:eak as the
voice of a mosquito singing a love serenade.
Tastcnschaelger touched the fuiidamental
dominant seventh (the piece was in E Major);
then for the final resolution Into the funda-
mental tonic be merely laid bis fingers on tbe
keys, bnt did not strike anything at all. The
effect of this can be imagined by any experi-
enced listener to music. However, at the close
Of the perfonnnnce. Selt'>nkratzer sprang up
and seized the hand of Tastenschleager, say-
and necklaces is mainly a German prejudice,
and Wagner himself, who is the chief sup-
porter of It, says that It is because the German
throat is naturally stiff and unplastlc that be
writes as he does. Wagner praises Italian
opera In Its own proper place.
Patrick Is sitting at the peaceful fireside,
smoking tbe soothing pipe of contentment, and
doubtless agreeing with tbe sentiments of J. R.
Lowell, though he never heard his name.
"NIcotla. dearer to tbe Muse tban all the
grape's bewildering Juice." Pat can wield a
crowbar better than a pen. and recognizes a
car-break better than thi. best hand-writing,
bat Biddie. his spouse, can read print and Is
prond of the fact. She alsp is ambitions and
has had the voice of her eldest daughter Mollle
tried (not tried out) by the most popular Ital-
ian voice-teacher in the clty-
Blddle. — "Ach, Paddle dear, d* yes kaow
what &1ggnor Olrtlnl sei about Mollle's Tolce?"
Pat— "Naw, thin."
Blddle. — "He sez her voice Is mellow."
Pat. — "Ach, It's rotten he means."
There are a good many lyric poems In tbe
English language which have not been dis-
covered by the men who clothe poets' words
with tones, and while the charming little . qua-
train of Bourdlilon, "Tbe night bath a thons-
and eyes," and that other equally lovely "The
sweetest flower that blows," have been nearly
done to death, like "Du BIst WIe Eine BInme"
In German, there are scores of other very mu-
sical and very singable which have scarcely
been attempted. There Is an admirable one by
Percy Bysshe Shelley, entitled, "To ."
It begins.'
"One word Is too often profaned for me to
profane It;
One feeling too often disdained for thee to dis-
dain It."
Again, there la that lorely poem of Edmnnd
Waller, a poet of the seyenteenth century, be-
ginning. "Go. lovely rose, tell her that -wastes
her time on me." etc.
lo each kaleidoscope will be some new poem
or a suggestion of a classic one which may t>e
both fitted to musical setting and imhackneyed.
It win then be a flower with the dew still
npon It.

I We are a people made op of every known

and we are in the majority, we can call our-
M selves Americans. But every foreigner who

American. Sectionalism also aboonds throngh-

bring them forth.
TANKEE DOODLE.
The origin of this tune Is Involved In mys-
tery, althongh there are those who claim that
either England. Holland. Hungary, or Spain
was its birth-place. It is lite Topsy it
"Just growed." Yet we do know that the tune
was Introduced by the colonists about 1755.
"Tankee" Is thought to be a corruption of
"Tenges" or "Xenkees." a name given by the
Massachusetts Indians to the English colonists.
The word Is defined In old English dictionaries
as meanlOE tiyster. It may not be nnlike our
modem meaning of dnde. The English colon-
ist, no doabt. Interested the Indian, who, being
unable to pronounce the word "English." coined
a new word to suit his own meaning,
jjj In JT13, or thereabout, the word was said
to have been Introduced into college slang
(phraseology from Jonathan Hastings, who was
wont to use the word as a coined word in ex-
pressions like "a Tankee good trick" or "Tan-
kee good cider." etc. This Hastings was a
M typical "hayseed." living near Cambridge,
S Mass., being well known to the Harvard stn-
9 dents, they called htm "Tankee Jonathan."
I From this they applied the expression. "Xan-
I kee Jonntban," to every character of this kind.
I In 1760 Dr. Schuckburg called the attention
I of the officers of the motley continental forces
a> to the fact that Tankee Doodle was a good
S piece of English martial music. It was In-
I tended only as a Joke, but as the colonists took
It good natnredly. It was not long before every
continentalr band was playing the tune. The
Joke was a good one and our bands kept It up.
22 Xord Percy's troops played and sang It In
derision when they advanced to Lexington, bnt
? here the langb was turned on them. Bnben-
I stebt nsed the melody with variations of his
I own composition at bis last concert in this
I country. PaderewskI attempted to write a
£ fantasie on this theme, but gave it np. It will
S be seen that It appeals to the higher order of
f mosicians. yet It lacks the elements of real
I greatness.
I The original verses which were little better
I than '*Motber Goose" rhymes, still cling to ns.
9^ although many attempts to substitute some-
thing better have been made. We seldom
S hear the song sow. yet we of ten bear the tune.
■ It . has tiiat quiet down eastern characteristic
I that makes It deaf to as. and while Its Jolly.
■ rhythmical figures flow throagh our minds, we
I feel a little foolish, bnt not enough to want to
JJJ disown it. It gives one a feeling not altogether
2S nnlike tbat of going before a clerk for a
I marriage license.
HAH, COLUMBIA.
Whenever an English or a French band wishes
S to pay homage to the United States on public
2J occasions by playing oor national anthem, they
iase Han Columbia. Although this Is the most
threadbare and bombastic of all onr national
music, it comes nearer to being all our own
Ulan any other anthem that we claim. The
mm mnslc ^le President's March, was written by
S Johannes Roth, a German mnslc teacher who
^ lived In Philadelphia.
I It was X Hopkinson who resnrrected the old
I President's March, bv writing the poem Hail
I CotnmbIa (in 1788). The occasion of Its writ-
i Ing was to secure a crowd for the actor and
singer, Gilbert Fox, who was playing in the
theatre In Philadelphia and who had announced
a benefit performance.
The President's March, being already familiar
to everybody, the song took and Fox reaped a
great harvest. The original music was very
faulty harmonically and many changes have
been made- Even now the music could be Im-
proved, but there is no occasion for it.
would become northern or southern, so popular
was it with both sides. However, it became
the southern war soog, in spite of the fact
that a northern version had been given the
poem. Thus It was that a northern man all
unconsciously, at the time, gave the aonth their
war song.
It has remained a popular favorite since. I
doubt not that its popniarlty in the south is

DIXIE.
Will S. Hayes, who recently died at his home
In Louisville, Ky., is said to be the anthor and
composer of Dixie. Even ttaongh saeb a claim
is based npon his being jailed for the offense,
there Is no donbt of the true authorship of
the piece, as we have It now. belonging to Dan
Emmett, of the old Bryant's Minstrel com-
pany.
Dan was already known as the composer of
Old Dan Tncker. He was engaged not only as
a performer, but to write "walk-arounds" for
wlilcb he bad a special knack.
Sunday, September ISth. was a dismal, rainy
day. and having bad a request from one of the
Bryants the night before for a "walk-aronnd"
in time for rehearsal Monday. Dan Emmett was,
likewise, considerably depressed.
A few years previous he had traveled through
the Sonth in the winter season as a circus
drummer, and to those 'who had been through
the sunny circuit tbe expression "I wish I was
in Dixie" was familiar, especially - when the
cold weather in tbe north made them .shiver.
So it was with Dan this Sunday morning as
he stood looking out the window, wishing he
was in Dixie, when suddenly the idea took him.
Seizing his fiddle he drew the bow lightly
over the strings, and Dixie bad its birth.
At the beginning of the civil war It was. for
atlme. hard to tell whether the true Dixie
even greater than America or The Star Spang-
led Banner.
JOHX BBOWS'S SONG.
"If an even exchange Is no robbery," while
Dixie was from the pen of a northern man,
John Brown's Song was of .soothem origin. Tbe
John Brown referred to in the song at the
time It was written was a comical Scotchman
of the Twelfth Massaebnsetts Infantry, but
it seems to have been received differently and
applied to John Brown of Ossawotomie. who
swung at Harper's Ferry. The song spread like
wildfire and became the great marching song
of the north during the entire civil war. It
was in vogue for a time during the Spanish-
American war. but gave place to A Hot Time
In Ttie Old Town Tonight, which was enjoying
a local run at the time, and which seemed
more appropriate on account of the hot weather.
Many attempts were made to nopolariie a
better poem to the music, but like Tankee
Doodle. Dixie and all the others it was fault-
less — ^the soldiers preferred the simple John
Brown. The music came from a sontbem camp
meeting camp Ixmk. The earliest record we
have of the music dates back to 1S.'>6. The
melody is attributed to William Steffe. The
Battle Hymn of the Bepnbllc was written for
this tune by Sirs. Howe, but tbe soldiers still
preferred John Brown.
Mrs. Howe's poem was by far the l>est of
all tbe .poems written daring tlie civil war.
THE STAB SPANGLED BANNER,
Behold the Flag of colors bright
That floats above the bigbeat dome;
The trlbnte of a nation's love.
The signal of a nation's borne.
*Tis sot tbe stars in sky of blue.
Nor colored stripes of red and wtalte;
'TIs liberty -that makes so dear
This emblem of the right.
The foes without, tbe foes within.
Have tried to bring "Old Glory" down;
Brave men bnve died, bnt not In *mln,
TO add new stars onto ber crown.
'TIs not the richness of our lands,
Nor Islands In tbe distant sea;
'TIs liberty that makes so dear
This emblem of the free.
Let kingdoms rise In mighty power—
Against onr Flag their strength oppose;
The sons of liberty will stand
'Xo fight tbe villains frOm onr shores.
'TIs not tlie strength of hired men
Who wear tlie nniform of blue;
■TIs liberty tbat makes so bold
Xhe nation's soldier tme.
Then rally 'ronnd tbe coIorB brlgbt.
Unfurl her stripes npon tne bteeie.
From every dime a welcome shoot .
.Will echo far upon tne seas.

■TIs liberty thjt lilts the soul;
'XIs liberty that points above
To the great God uf all.
In Frederick, Maryland, U the grave of
Francis Scott Key, tbe antnor of 'XHe Star
iipangled Banner. Over this grave BoaU the
nag. wiilcb Is renewed every memorial day. No
gieater tribute can be paid the memory of
.iiy patriot. The poem Is an expression of the
heart. Inspired by the most peculiar circum-
stances on record.
Key was an unwilling spectator on hoard an
English vessel In the attack of Admiral Cock-
burn's fleet npon Fort. McHeniy. The war
which was being waged between the United
States and Great Britain In 18U appeared to be
running in favor of the latter. Francis Key,
a yoons lawyer, bad l>een dispatched to the
British Admiral Cocfcbnm to secure the release
of Dr. Beanes, who was at that time held a
captive on board one of the British vessels.
It was a very inopportune time for Key's busi-
ness, as tile British admiral luul planned an
attack npon Fort McHenry.
TIce Admiral Cochrane, under whom Dr.
Beanes had been placed, agreed to release the
gentleman, but could not do so until after the
attack. Thus It was that Key and his psrty
were held on board a British vessel during the
fight. Much to the surprise of the English,
I he foe stubbornly refused to capitulate. Imag-
ine tbe feelings of Key and his puatty — eye
witnesses to such an attack and unable to lift
a hand in defense of their country. This was
the situation, and as the atuck lasted long
into the night, it was impossible to tell whe-
ther those In the fort still held out. No wonder,
then, that with the first dawn of morning
Key asked if the fiag was stUI there.
On September 21, 1SI4, this poem was print-
ed in the BaltimOTe American. The tune,
Anacreon In Heaven, was, wlthont doubt, known
to Key, as many patriotic verses bad been
written to it before. It was announced in tbe
Italtimore American that the poem was to be
sung to this tune. There are those who claim
that Key did not know the tune, but that
Ferdinand Duranz adapted It to this tune. It
may be that Duranz was one of the flrst to
sing it, bnt there is little evidence that he was
the first to adapt it to this tune. The third
verse, in which Key auatliematized the English,
was dropped after tbe friendly relations during
the Spanish-American war developed between
ns and oar mother eonntry. Another tnlliience
which helped tbe matt« some was Inoaght
abont by Oliver Wendell Holmes, who, in.ises.
introduced stanzas referring to tbe outcome of
the dvll war. This Holmes version found its
way Into many school readers, with the peculiar
result that at a «chool celebration In New
Orleans in 1903 many old confederate veterans
were astounded to hear themselves execrated
by their own grand children, who sang this
version ' at their opening exercises.
In 1S61 several sortbem men offered ( prtie
of $600 cash for a national hymn that would
Inspire patriotism and military ardor. About
1,200 manuscripts were submitted, bnt ftom
that great number none were accepted. They
came from all over the world, and after a long
time of hard work tbe committee came to the
conclusion that to produce a national anthem
was no easy task. No man can deliberately
set down and write a national anthem that wUI
l>e national. Socb compositions come from the
people, more than individuals. It is the great
mass of humanity that decides npon any nation-
al affair. For a season a few people can bold
power over the masses, and to-day In onr mod-
ern rag-time mnslc tbe larger mnslc lionsea ean
popularize to a certain extent any tone, but
the big hits are not premeditated, and never a
national anthem.
Other songs that have played coniptenoas
parts in the history of onr country are: Henry
Clay works — ^Marching Through Georgia: Geo.
F. Boot — Tramp. Tramp, Tramp, the Boys are
Marching: and Just Before the Battle, Mother.
James Ityder Randall — Maryland, adapted to

in the American Indian
By GEORGE LEWIS.

MlUiona of dollars have been expeuded by
Congress to provide some enUgbtenineiit for,
and to preserve friendly relatlona. wltb tbe
American Indian.
Tbe red man pwalatlon. In 1847 was closely
estimated at 182,S94 souls. Every effort bas
been made by tbe Government to preserve, edu-
cate and protect ibis strange people, but tbere
are forces working wblcb will In a few years
totally obliterate the race.
TbL> first appearance of tbe Indian Impresses
one wltb a notion of savage cruelty; further ac-
quaintance with blm, however, will reveal to us
a type Ibat we can but admire. Some traits
of his character excel those of our modern
civilization. No race of human beings can com-
pare with lilm In the cardinal virtues. Tbe
women are chaste. No gallantry exists among
the men, yet they regard the virtue of their
women with almost superstitious awe. Bravery,
even greater than crowns the deeds of our own
heroes. Is quite common among them.
Vhey are poetical. Imaginative, and lazy In
the extreme. Apparently they lead an aimless
life, without purpose In anything, yet a moat
specific purpose accompanies every act. They
do nothing needlessly.
Generally he Is a peace-loving individual,
warring only when absolutely necessary, then
with the im*atest fury and cruelty.
They believe In existence after death and one
Great Spirit who assumes many different forms.
They enter into every phase of life wltb the
utmost care and precision. Music is practised
among them not as an art but as an every-day
requisite. It forms a defioite part In every
ceremony. Few songs are sang for the men'
pleasure of singing, or for entertainment of him-
self or others; they constitute a tdnd of accom-
paniment to' their various forms of dances.
Nearly all ceremonies among them are • con-
ducted In some form of musical dance. When
uot upon the war path or in the chase, he Is
usually engaged In some ceremony, religious or
otherwise.
Naturally, among different tribes the same
ceremony will be conducted somewhat differ-
ently, yet the general points of the most nota-
ble ceremonies are practically tbe same. Then,
too, some tribes celebrate some events which
other tribes do not; but the war dance, the
scalp dance, the dog dance, the rain dance and
the aim dance are about the same among all
tribes,
THE WAK DANCE.
Death is the only just cause for war, and
It Is to avenge the death of some member of
tbe tribe or individual friend of the chief that
he goes out upon the war path. If a brave bas
lost a friend through the treachery of some
■ other tribe, be at once dons bis war paint, and
with battle-axe. bow and arrows and war-club
proceeds to open a war dance.
Be dances around in a circle, singing at the
highest pitch of bis voice, relating In song his
own heroic deeds. This is 8ui>po8ed to inspire
military ardor and enthusiasm in tbe young
warriors. When he has let out a few war-
whoops and continued the dance for a short
time, others Join Mm. each singing his own
song. Every new arrival Is greeted with re-
doubled noise and furious war-whoops. No one
Is directly asked to enter the dance, as all must
be volunteers. Those wbo thus enter are con-
sidered enlisted for the oncoming battles. Mo
definite number, however, bnt usually until the
chief returns.
They claw tbe air, believing they hold the
sky in their hands, and the force used In stamp-
ing the ground is Intended to shake the unl-
. verse. The drum is beaten by the women or
' children usually, the greatest accuracy being
.observed In tempo and rhythm.
^ The languaRe of these songs Is usually very
figurative, often only suggestive. The war-
-whoop is made by screaming while breaking
the sound by spasmodically placing tbe hand
- over tbe mouth. A typical war soiig Is here
given to better lllnstrate tbe Imaginary char-
acteristics of tbe Indian.
WAR SONG.
Hear my voice, ye warlike birds!
1 prepare a feast for you to batten on;
I see you cross tbe enemy's lines:
14ke. you I shnll go.
I wish the swlttness of yoor vlngs;
I wish the TcnBeance of your claws;
1 muster my friends;
I follow your digbt.
Ho! ye young men that are warriors.
IxMk with wrath on the battle-field.
After the war feast, which is provided by
the leader, each man provides for himself, fur-
nisblng his own subsistence and weapons. After
tbe TCtum from battle the women execute tbe
SCALP DANCE.
In this dance the men have no part save to
sing in the chorus. The women sing, "Many
a large fat enemy bas been' brought In." after
which the men usually bowl and beat the drums
furiously.
Sometimes following this dance comes tbe
Dog Dance. In wblcb only tbe bravest men take
part and -only those who have strong stomachs.
DOO DANCE.
A circle la arranged, around which ate placed
stakes. On tbese stakes are placed tbe livers
of live dogs, taken from tbem as the dance
progresses. The dogs are furnished by b.v-
standers, who tie the legs of the animals and
throw them Into tbe ring. The medicine men
open the sides of the dogs, take out the livers,
cut tbem Into strings, and place tbem upon tbe
imles. The dancers grab the pieces of liver
with their mouths and eat them. Should a piece
fall to the ground, n meilleine man picks It
up, holding it in his palm, from which the
warrior eats it.
This ceremony is accompanied by music fur-
nished by tlie women.
The purpose of this ceremony is to give cour-
age and cunning to tbe warrior, who believes
that he absorbs those traits from the dog from
which the liver has been taken.
KAIN DANCE.
This forin of dance differs with different
tribes, but the general outline of the ceremony
Is tbe same.
Twenty men, usually members of the priest-
hood, and twenty women, sometimes mothers
Their crops depending altogether upon rala
and sunshine, and esp^'Clally upon sunshine, they
consider tbe sun dance tbe most Joyous of all
the . season. This, the greatest of all festival
days, brings forth every man, woman and child
of them, arrayed In their t>est attire and bright-
est colors. They give thanks to the mother
god. the sun. for all the blessings upon them
and their crops.
The women dance Just ahead of tbe men,
wbo beat their tarcoulaa In rhythmical accord
to their sougs — songs which are of considerable
musical significance. Tbe dignified grace and
ease of their movements makes a marked con-
trast to their wild and barbarous war dances.
JOHN C. WEBER,
One of America's best-known and most popular band directors.
but more often virgin daughters of families of
high order, are arranged In two lines or files;
on either side of these files Is placed a boy
who dances up and down tbe line. Musicians
(such as tbey are) play upon drums and rattle
gourds which are filled with shells and beads.
The dancers do not more out of their tracks
save for an occasional "about face." The chief
of tbe ceremony annolnts each dancer on the
shoulder with iwwder at the beginning of the
dance.
Tbe dancers Invoke the Bain and Thunder
God to send rain. The rain priests exhort tbe
dancers to sing with all tbe fervor of their
souls. Sacred fires are kindled and kept burning
for days and nights together, until they are
extlngntstaed by the downpour of rain. There
is no break-up of the cereraouy until rain does
come.
It is a singular fact that an abundant down-
pour is always the result. The superhuman
efforts of this exciting ceremony to accomplish
so strange a phenomenon are hard to believe.
All this time the music continue;, with tbe
strictest precision of bt-at and rhythm. If tbe
ceremony lasts very long, food is brought and
given the dancers while they continue In their
sacred duties.
THE SUN DANCE.
The Indian is a nature worshliwr, and there-
fore it la bnt natural to find him worshiping
the sun as the chief of gods. Tbey believe in
but one Great Spirit, but that He inhabits every-
thing in nature. They look for lllm In the
clouds, In the trees of the forest, lu the hills
and valleys, in the sun. and in everything in
nature.
The scene Is impressive and at times pathetic,
especially so wh^'n the mnsic reaches a tremn-
ious appeal, as it does usually at tbe cadences.
GENERAL CHABACTEHISTICS OP THEIR
MUSIC.
The war dance Is. of course, wild and bar-
baric, pitched very high and usually of not more
than three or four tones. Often syncopated, and
many times of uneven phrases, yet it has a
force of character that interests the best musi-
cians. The scalp dance and dog dance have
more or less of this same character, bnt in not
so marked degree. The rain dance has more
variety; not so high pitched, measures more
evenly marked, and of considerably more dia-
tonic Importance. The sun dance Is truly musi-
cal, full of beautiful cadences. In slower meas-
ures, and more suggestive of harmony.
While all their songs are sung in unison, yet
to the musician they reveal depths of harmony
scarcely notlci'd by tbe casual observer.
Just now there seems to be a famine (?) In
the rag-time musical field, wblle the "Indian"
idea Is being brought before us. To Just what
extent tbe Indian character affects these com-
positions Is very dIHIcnIt to say, yet It Is safe
to venture that such songs as "Hiawatha,"
"Tola," and "Arawana" have mighty little pure
Indian character in them. However, we wel-
come tbem, not as classics, but as decided Im-
provements over the rag-time. The better class
of musicians are developing ideas from tbe pure
Indian melodies, and we hope It will not be
long before our popular writers also will gleam
something from this field of melodic richness.
There are unlimited wealths iu this field.
Plenty of Ideas for light or serious opera. Tbe
Indian made no books, yet be has more beautiful
stories and legends than have been Invented by
our American white race.
MUS'ICAIi INSTRUMENTS.
Tbe Indian has two kinds of drums; one made
similar to a tambourine, with skin stretched
over a keg-shaped piece of gourd filled with
pebbles, beads and shells. Birch bark Is also
used for material to supply the body of the
drum. A flute is made of two pieces of cedar,
half round, then hollowed out quite thin, wltb
four holes In it, and glued together. The upper
hole bas a regulator or small buckskin flap a
little below the bole. Tbe raising or lowering
of this flap affects the pitch of the aotea played.
IN CONCLUSION.
Having lived among the civilized Indian some
time and lu a territory rich in historical rem-
iniscences, I know that great stories from little
facts grow.
There are a few scattering families of Indians
now, living near some of tbe once Important
trading posts in Michigan, who often relate
stories concerning tbe origin of certain lakes
and rlrers. WbUe tbese stories are Impossible
to believe, yet tbey are current among the wbltea
because of their poetical beauty and imaginative
force.
GRAFT IN THE PIANO TRADE.
Exposure of the Practice of Advertis-
ing Fall Prices.
Who was It said — "Tbere are tricks in all
trades but oura"? It might have been tbe plana
mau, because the average piano man has coaxed
himself Into the enjoyment of tbe balluclnatlon
that he Is honest and truthful. Tbe piano trade,
as a whole, marvels at the tremendous growth
of a demand for exceedingly low-priced, and. In
many cases, worthless pianos.
May It not be a correct answer that ft large
proportion of the public feels that tbe pmebase
of a piano Involves : mortal risk anyhow, and
that tbe lower- tbe jprlee tbe less tbe risk?
The best Information we can get tends to
show that the annual production of pianos
amounts lu round numbers to 230,000 and that
the average price paid by tbe public is about
$::eo, or a total outlay by tbe pnbllc of <BS,00O,-
UOO annually.
It Is doubtful. In tbe extreme. If tbe public
Invests as much money In any other article,
about the value of which It Is so profoundly
ignorant. Just as long as the public demands
any article In such enormous quantity, and
knows so nearly nothing about its value, the
chance for sharp practices on tbe part of un-
scrupulous bouses and salesmen will exist. Tbe
element or dishonesty In piano selling often
reaches out beyond tbe bouse or salesman and
Includes "the friend" who assists (?) in the
selection of a piano. The combination of an
unscrupulous piano salesman and a false -adviser
is enough for any uninformed, unsuspecting
piano customer to go up against. It is won-
drous easy to fleece a customer who is depend-
ing on a friend's advice. On socli occasions tbe
logical reasoning is — "The higher the price and
the lower the quality, the greater the graft
or rake-off."
With all this lack of knowledge on the part
of tbe buyers of pianos as to value, tbere seems
a disposition, and, indeed, a purpose, on tbe
part of even tbe best manufacturers to con-
ceal value by failure to have and maintain a
price, anC naturally this Is the great tap-root
of tbe dishonesty that prevails In piano selling.
So far as we have lieen able to learn, there
are only one or two manufacturers wbo publish
to the world the actual retail prices of their
pianos, and even these are lived up to only by
the manufacturers in their retail departments,
while dealers throughout the country are per-
mitted to handle these two great makes In
atwut the same manner that prevails with all
others. The whole aim and object seems to be
to mystify and confuse the public, with no ap-
parent purpose except to get Its 909,000,000
annually witbont giving adequate valne iu re-
turn, indeed, there are some others who pub-
lish prices (?), but again they are often only
meant to confuse and not to assist the public,
for they are not prices, but mere starting flgurea
from which to gradually fall until a sum at
whlcb tbe customer will buy Is finally found.
No one with a pretense of Judgment will, for
an Instant, suppose that a salesman will allow
these rednetlons to go on to such extent that
profit Is eliminated. And so we say, tbe pnb-
llc has come to feel that bnying a plana Is a
desperately risking undertaking, and the less
put Into It tbe better.
A piano Is a very costly instrument— even
when purchased at the right price— especially
when you take into consideration the short
time that it will last and be at Its best.
Aside from this, however, there is notblng

ENGLISH AS A LANGUAGE TO SING

Tocallxedr attains to an e xalte d charm not known I xhen. In the year 1600, the Italiana Invented
is Its btwer state. To turn spoken Into snng ' dmnltaneously the opera and the oratorio, which,
neech It Is always necessary to do two things, ' especially the former, they hare cnltlvated with
■wtwT «mt to make the sounds more definite aa atmndant diligence tin the present time.
Tls: first,
to pitch, and second, more prolonged and sus-
tnmed In time. When a series of words Is de>
Ilberately chanted upon a definite pitch It Is
poarilde to understand them at a great distance,
far greater than when they are merely spokes,
however admirably. This wsa the reason d'etre
of the Gregorian chant as still beard in the
Boman church. A striking instance of the same
need, and the same device Is given every day
in the railroad depots when the train caller criui
on his loud snstalned middle C or B, the hours
and the stations of departing trains.
This prolonging of tlie syllables and words
most extend to foor or even six times the length
uf cuiuuiuu enunciation, and la cfrtain styles to
many times more than that. This Is achieved
by the muifical computfer vither by writing very
long tones in a dowing cantaiena. or by setting
a. tone chain of very many separate notes against
one syllable.
This latter device la used by Haendel almost
to excess.
In the aria, Be]oIce Greatly, and also In the
szla. Every Valley, from the \MeasIah, there are
•xamples of the very ne pins ultra of tlsls meth-
od of holding ' the word before the attention of
the listener. If the words are not thus dilated
ntxm the tone canvas the effect is distinctly
comic. The soioa and chomses In the operas uf
Gilbert and SoUlvan, more especially in Hie Pi
rait-s of Penzance, exemplify this principle. Dan
anything sorpaas In that species of the dainty
Indlcnms which liaa no taint of coarseness, that
closing chorus, where the words "And this shall
be accomplished by a doctor of divinity. Who
banilly resides In this Immediate vlclnily." are

nary conrersatiun, yet npon exact masical scale

which Is. In prosody, an lambns, to rooladi-s

among the great ones ever does. Now. It Is s '
fact too often forgotten, that the mighty Hsen-

A generation ago our people totdt their moale
much nwre lightly, and as a mere relaxation.
Thai, there were few who underatod any other
languai^e than English, and there were none who
cared particularly what the opera was all about.
If the fragrant, fiowery arias and ariettas were
plentiful enough, and if the stage pictures were
pretty and varied enough to keep the eye filled
as well as the ear.. Bnt with the deepening and
enriching of onr life, and onr ootlooK upon the
nnlverw. has .arisen a most decided demand to
understand an art work as an entirety, to get at
the Dianow and nlth^ot tfalugs. ami to pluck out
the heart of music's mystiry.
AsfiureiQy. assuredly, this I» a cfauige to be
■ welcomed with rejoicings and to be fostered
with diligent care.
Some -years ago I heard In the Pike Opera
House, in Cincinnati, the one which went np In
smoke anil tljme, a performance of Oounod's
Faust. In which there were four languages em-
tdoyed. viz: French. Italian. German and Ecg-
llsli. sncb a mlsoable, InarUstle melange as
this would be hissed off the stage in these' days.
Even Xh^t 'nrwi German of Oerman lyric dramas,
the Farsifa] of Bichard Wagner, was given In
Bngllsh in response to an imperative demand of
I the public. But why should there be any
I qoestion abont it, and why should It be neces-
sary to plead the cause of our magnificent Eng-
lish language? There are several reasons why
the language of Shske^eare, Milton, Pope,
Wordsworth, Tennyson, Keats, Browning, LoDg-
fellow. and Lowell, and a thonsand other poeta,
should not have been sang In the past, and why
it must now be cultivated with discrimination
and with lore.

what we must demonstrate.

The first set of reasons why English has been
bnt little nsed are historic purely. Singing is
the oldest of all arts, except poetry, and. Indeed,
it is simply one-half of the golden annle of po-
etry, fov always, ia early apes, poetry was actu-
ally gnng. or chanted In recitative, am. the oon-
rentional word 'ising" for "make verses" Is
and lator the BngUsfa, the Busstans and the
Morse Jure song their vernacular. True, the
English of the days- of Oaeen i!:iizabetb were
great In music and composed mnch for tbe volce.
but a^r the age of Porcell there fell a blight
of •eml-paralysls npon Engllab native genius,
tm our own 'omes. as the eottdlary of the idol-
strons admiration- inspired by the Hanoverian
eltst, tells In his reminiscences, an amusing
aitecdote .'f Lowell, how h" u: It r-d an exeUroii

teachers envy the Italians such words as "fellcft.

dolce. qaesto, quello, pin, addlo, morire, tene-
formed like a face, not plastic and beautlfal
of Itself, but made more than beautiful by the
inner light of a poetic spirit.
Thus it falls out with the guttural aspects
of the German, as with the nasal elemenu of
the French, tlrat they are actually the root and
ground of new and characteristic beauties.
This priority of the other nations, vis; the
Italians, the French and the Germans, in compo-
aitlon is the chief historical reason why tlie
English language has been neglected.
The men of genius have written th^lr im'
mortal works for texts of Italian. French oi
German, and consequently the tones close around
the syllables of those languages and empnaalse
their contours with a nicety and felicity which
It is simply Impossible to secure In a translation.
It is the contention of the most snbtle critics
of literature that a real translatloa of a poem is
an impossibility. 1, certainly, from many long
years of deep and anal^cal study of the poets
of seven langaages, heartily endorse this Teidlet.
The only way--to really taste a poet Is to ac-
quire thoroughly the language In which he wrote
To feel this you may find an easy experiment.
to be ao goodnstared and lefases to pay for ring-
ing which ia but half ondentood. So loot as
there Is a aingle word of an opera or aa aria
or a song wUeh is not comprdMnded at once and
f<dIowed as absolutely as it It were spoken, even
when sung to tiaborate mnslc, lost ao long the
art la imperfect. It yon doubt this. Just call to
mind that divine alnglng of the words of
Christ, Be tlion faithful unto death, in ilea-
delsBOhn's Saint Paul, aa delivered by Edward
Lloyd, when he came to the Cincinnati May
FesUval In ISaS, if you had the privilege o4
being there, any further demonstratioa or Ulua-
tratlon win be needless. But to leam Bngliah
BO as to Bing U perfectly Is next to Imposslbls
for any fcwSgner. In their own langa«ge, the
Italians, the French, and the Germans are
fearfully critical and exaetiiig, bnt when they
sing our wotds they do not themselves feel the
terrific distortions and ludicrous Jumbles which
they sre making. When the renowned Italian
tenor BrignoU was coneertlslng with Christine
Nielsen he had to come out before the curtain
one evening and preface the singing of the
prima donna irith an apdiogr -for s certain dnU'
ness of ber TOlce, doe to the congeathn of •
cold. He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, Madame
N'lelson vishes me announce zat she has ■ edt."
When the audience burst oat laughing, he ex-
plained with some asperity, "I mean she ee«
a leetle horse." In all languages there are pit-
falls galwe into which the learner tuntbles In-
continently, because of the vagueness of ths
ear In discrlmlnsting minute shades of sound,
and In English there are ss many as dsewliere.
Thna, K bave indicated the Orst set oC great
obstacles to the acceptance of the English «s t
singing language. But there are othen.
Not Insupembie barriera, by any means,
bat very real ones. Those we must oor-
selres remove. It would be the height of
absurdity to expect the foreigner to burden him-
self with crushing tunes of studious toil wiiich
be can avoid. ' Oar language has certain qosll-
ilea wlilch are Indeed at first Objectionable, but
which may. like the naaal soonds of the mcencli,
and the guttural sounds of the German, be
transformed into beanUes.^ A similar effect ll
seen in the art of wood earring, where ths
gnarled and twisted places are actually msda
the most beantlfnl parts of the wood by ths
manipulation of the artist.
Thus, our language has, ilrat of all, sn ex-
cessive number of tlie narrow vowels, and m a
poverty of the large, open vowela which are so •
marked a beauty and so great an advantage ot T
the Italian language. Thus, to give a sample. I
In a stanza of a famous English classic poem I
the first stanzas ot the Elegy In a Country I
Church Yard, by Thomas Gray, out of forty i
syllablea there ore but tour wUeb have th* g
vowel "ah" aa in father, and that vowel comes m
in Italian, that it is nsnally named "Italian A." I
Kut since we have go many narrow vowels, «• I
In fair, wend, sing, run and look, besides having I
all tbe six large vowels: B, A. Ah, Aw, O and I
OO, with two reverse and! three direct dlpfa- S
thongs, we are actnally richer In tbe tints of oar s
palette than the Italiana. T
It is at first harder to alng the narrow vowels I
well, and this Is the source of many laughable I
utterances; but they esn be sung, and tbe voice |
sounds Just as full and sonoroua with them as g
with the more open vowels, Ttiere is - viciwis m
notion abroad that these narrow rowels oogbt
to be rounded, and as many teachers,' who ought
to have better Judgment, actnally insist upon
their pupils making nonsense of their words
to favor what they are pleased to call a purs
tone. A certain church tenor one momlna
startled his congregation by aliontlng out "My
trust ia in the God of battles" by distorting «
Into "My truat Is In the God of botHes." This
may have been true, but not to be snnonnoed In
the house of God.
The most serious deifect of onr langasge, hon.
ever. Is Its extreme poverty In terminal row*
els. The process of abrading or robbing oB th«
final vowels of the Saxon speech to conform It
to tbe analogy of the Norman French, which
was for three ccntnries the language of the up-
per claases exclusively, has deprived it of
those easy Junctions of words which come In
the German with Its richness of final rowel
syllables, and In the Italian ultra richness of
terminals. Here again is a ralnable defect.
The Italian, at times, becomes feeble because
of ^extreme euphony, and If our BngMeh were
written carefully and with a view to effect In
singing, it could be made abaolutely liquid,
plastic and transpsrent. As it is, however,
there are In all onr texts great tangled bunches
of three, four, five consonants, which are like
logs left stranded by a flooded rlrer. Take thl*.

For many year* tbU baa been In procress, and
tbe number of tbose wbo bave zone over, asi
compared wltb tboee wbo bave acbleved lasting
success In their chosen callbiK, la small — so
small, in (act, that the question arises wtaetber
a European education la necessary for eTcntnal
success In tbe world of musical endeavor.
Much depends upon tbe construction placed on
the word educatiuu. li it la taktni to mean
tbe development ot tbe mosioal Klfts and tal-
ents « person may possess In the blsbest pos-
sible manner and most completely, or It It la
taken to mean a correct and mathematically
exact Instruction In tbe rules of musical science.
Immediately provides a very dlJferent point of
view. But since It is generally admitted by
pedagogues that true education is only such
which trains both heart and mind, and slno
there can be no art superlative without the
emotions of the former to supplement tbe reason-
lugs of tbe latter, that mudicai education which
supplies both in the most perfect adjustment
Is bound to schieve the most lasting and ar-
tistic success. ■ ^ ^ ^ ...
Unless a musician, or music student, has the
idgbest ideal there is no hope that be or she
wUl ever startle the world. It may be that
all can not aspire to become great singers or
pianists or compoeos mr condnetors; bnt it must
be tbst each student . ctaerlsb a pure ideal oif
bis work will be that of a machine, similar to
the pot-^Mller In the field of literary activity.
By force of ciiemnstances. or lack of energy,
there ore many such, and their number, together
with the fact that they generally combine a
certain anoont of practical facility with
metbodlcal correetoess obscure the truer snd
finer musician In a cursory survey ot the field.
It the approach to a Ucb lileal is' xncli u
necessary aoorce of Inspiration In tbe develup-
ment of tbe deeper sentiments of tbe musician's
faculties and his finer Instincts, then it follows
that such surroundings are most advantageous
where these Ideals are maintained Ughest and
ttnest.
And herein lies the crux of the question.
Where are tbe hhjlier ideals conserved T In tbst
place where there is tbe most setivity; where
talent Is recognlxed, and given an opportunity
of demoostratuuc Its worth, and where, ss a
resnit of this, tbe leaders in tbe art find their
development and the reslUatlon of their en-
deavors.

Cut to descend from the plane of metaphyai-.-s
to that ot everyday practicability, tbe best
evUence o< success in a cboern profession or art
la anecess achieved. In glancing over tne ac-
complishments ot this country, as comp-trod.
let us flay, with Germany, there can he uuly
one conclusion. That Germany has iieutnries
of cultivation behind her does not alter the
fact. Bather, It tttrftigthens me argument, tw-
canse it admlta eipt'rlence which thia country
dors not and can not claim.
When a conductor is to be chosen for <me of
our large otcheotns. Is be an American? Why
nnt? Because die orcbi-stral situation in this
country ia such that there Is Uttle or no oppar'
tuolty to develon conductors. A man may learn
all about the theory of the art of conducting,
but he can only acquire the absolutely neces-
sary routine afforded by the opportanltiee actn-
ally to lead an orchestra. In this country we
have very few symphony orchestras wortl^ of
tlw name. The.v, for the most part, are lo-
cated in large cities, where the ezpenditnre ot
the American dollar has made ot uiem capable
organizations. They have been pot, for tbe
most part, on a high plane, and experimental
coaductors are out ot the question, Europe Is
therefore called u-v>n to furnish experienced
men. Witness the case of the Phlladelpbla
itrchestra and tbe coming of Dr. Muck
In the iBoston Orchestra and tbe engafte-
niont of Safonoir by the New York
PhUbarmonlc, and the re-engageroent of Bmll
Paur by the Pittsburg organisation. All these
mi'Q. at one time or another, had to begin at
the bottom of the ladder. But. as far as thi
orchestral situation In this country Is con-
cMned, there are no rungs to tbe ladder. Theie
Is no opnnrtnnlly for the development of con-
ductors b,v letting them become acquainted
With tbe most manifold of instruments, tbe or-
etieatra and tbe orchestral literature, for the
'■luple reason thai we bave no smaller orch>!i-
ii« with whli'h tnlented nnd pmbr.vnnlc conduc-
tors may begin tbpir actual education.
To again- cite Germany as the example In
comparison, every clf of any consequence has
l<i symphony orchestrs. not to say anything
of its opera. True. In all cases these oiganlsa-
lions are not of superlative ezcelleoeei bnt they
are serviceable bands and give their series of
concerts esch winter. Some of them bave as-
f>Irtiant conductors, and In man,v cases young
men . who sre anxious to learn volunteer as as-
'■■tsnts, just for the opportunities of practical
fxiierlence. Then, as tbe positions ot Isadora
or the more prominent orchestras become vacant,
tbe mnslclsns who bave made records In tbe
snialler cities are called upon, giving thelf
filaces In turn to their assistants. Thus, there
; s gradual and steady development, some-
llilng we do not hare In this country. Only six
of the lareest cllles In this country have sym^
■ Phony orchestrss worthy ot the name, and
these demand conductors of experience. Bow
sre they to' be developed In this country T
In the 8imi> line II may be aren:>d ctmcern-
Ing the orchestral player. Bren In^tbe strings
there is difficulty In securing enough AmCricsn
material which bas the necessary routine. In
the solo places, such as the first oboe, or
French horn or bassoon, an Importation is al-
most Invariably necessary. WhyT Where ate
the opportunltiea for tbe development of an
Oboe-playerl Apart tram a few mtHu with
mmmer bands and a few weeks, possibly, with
one or the other of tbe sU OFchestras this country
possesses, there is no call for an oboist. Yonog
Americans will much rather study clarionet,
because the opportunities for engagements are
much greater, owing to the fact that there
can scarcely he an orchestra, even If consls**ag
of only five men. without a clarionet. Whit

But let us depart from the sphere of orcbes-
teal music fy>r a time and consider the singer.
That a vocalist can be as thoroughly educated
In the technical side of the art. in other words,
that be or she can be made t« sinir well. Iiv
th» teachers In this country there Is no rea-
sonsble doubt. Experience has shown that the
materia] Is at hand in rich quantity and that
tbe vocal teachers In this country are as suc-
cessful In training the voice as the teachera In
singing Is extensive In this country, and there la
opportunity for tbe native singer to gain ex-
perience and to ripen bis art in so dtnng. In
I the first place, the aystem of soloists In church
clioira represents a solid foundation. Singers
are given onportnnltles eacb week to pwform
a given number of works: tbey also leam to
RtM>"ar before the public; they also learn to sing
tn rnsemble. They gain repose- and tbey obtain
lie sii)i|ilementiit>- iiractieal exis-rlence to aid
the theoretical knowledge they have secured
from the teacher.
The next step Is to appear In recital before
some musical clob. The country Is dotted wltb
musical clubs, snd In the smallee cities the
-fiTiKis. are not at hand to engage big and expen*-
slve attractions. Hence, tbe native singer from
one of the nearby musical centers Is afforded an
enoagement. and each time be or ahe appears
It Is so mneh added to his or her musical edu-
cation. It Is another step forward In bis - or
lier career. - ■ .
Tben, most cities ot any consequence hav*
their choral societies. In tbe smaller cities
tbey form one of tbe principal social featurea.
Two and sometlmw three eoneerta saw given
each season, aMoIsts brinx xeqnlnd lo eaeb In-
stance.
Again, the Idea ot festivals In the aprlng la
growing steadily, presenting additional oppar-
tnnltles for American singers. With the field
so wide It la not difficult to see that the ora-
torio singer In this country bas splendid 0|>-
portunities to broaden his or her art and to
reach a hijrii pinnacle of artistic aadeavw. The
success wnich must singers In tbls Itoe of
work have met with Is the beat Indleatton ot
the worth of this B.vstem.
Tbat this exists as It does aOords tbe contrast
between America and tbe Boropean coumtrlea.
If America were as active In other tcancliea
ot the art. If. aU these smaller cities wUeli
bave their choral societies also bad tbelr or-
chestras and> their opera, then there, woold
scarcely be any need to go to Sorope. except
for the historical aasoctatlons. But, unfor-
tunately, such la not the case.
If the lyric singer has manifold snd rich
opportunities in this country, bow well Is the
singer treated who selects the operatic field
for bis or her career? We have two big com-
panies In this country, both located In New
York. They are not establlabed companies in
the sense of the word that tbey develop and
keep tbeir own talent. Their ranks sre filled
by xKomlnent European artists who secure a
leave ot abaence tor several weeks eacb sea-
son to rake In tbe American shekels. This
promlsenoni aiaoclation ot tondry atngers, who
are acarcely long enough together to becomii
acquainted with one anothw personally, not to
ssy musically, results In the lamentabia ab-
sence of a fine balance and arttatle enaemUe
for which tbe operatic pertormsaces In tola
country are noted.
The only opera worthy of mention outside of
the two big ones In New York Is the Bngllsb
(company of Henry W. Savage. Quite a number
of singers who have been in the ranks of this
organization during tbe past few years ate now
filling positions in prominent European opera
houses. If there would bave been a series of
Institutions in this country extending from the
Savage company upward to the Metropolltaa.
these same alngeis would not have found It ao
necessary to go to Europe to complete thetr
operatic educatlmi.
If a lyric singer reqnlres experience >to bs-
come an artist, a dramatic singer reqolrea a
Kood deal more, for the technical education of
the stage, the art of mimicry must also come
strongly Into play. Tbe spasmodic nerfonaancFa
given by operatic tralnlnf aehools m this coun-
try are not suflletent to "ive singers the repose
and experience necessary. Even a season or
two wltb Savage's company does not alford
siifliclent opportunities to establish s repertoire
nr even become acquainted with the less fre-
Mnently given works of old and modern com-
posers.
When an American stngw retnma to this
connlry to score a big success. It Is tbe habit
tn sarcastically refer to the fact that he or she
iieedeil a Bnropean trip simply to satisfy the
.\merlcan pnbllc. whicn demands all Ita mn-
slesi gofsts to have the foreign stamp. Thi:* Is
n<»t tnie, and no single Instance of laatlng ane-
cess <-sn be named where a mere trip to tlie
Continent has brouKbt this about. Nor Is It
true that Americans will not or can not appre-
ciate native talent nntU Buroiiean criticism
bas proclaimed It great. What tbe tboogblfal
in this country do deplore Is the tact thiit
there sre not the advantage^ bete to develop
the talent which la so abnndant. Take the
>-\atnp1e of Geraldine Farrar, or Marv Garden,
or, among the older ones, Emma Kamea or
N'ordlca. Did they develop tbelr tadents at
the Metropolitan or any other American opera
house? Could they have done ao tmdw (xlat-
Ing conditions?
A great many elngers go to Europe to study,
tiowever. who conld do Just ss well at home.
Teachers here, except one or two specialist*,
are as good as In Eurone. It Is not for the
voice tralnlDK that anybody need go abroad,
nor Is It necessary to gain experleuce in ora-*
torlo singing. Rut If the operatic career la
chosen, then It Is at onei* erldmt friMn. the
above that a complete training can not be pro-
cured In this country.
• • s
-Why do so many plantots go abroad to atndy?
It Is a dlflScnlt question to answer In most
cases, because they genersUy come back not
mu^ more Improved than when they left, and
liad they worked as hard at home they wonM
most likely bare accoinpllsbed the same re-
sults. In exceptions! cases, however, the fre-
quent eoneerta given in the Bnropean cities,
snd the grester opportunities to sppear with
orchestra owing to this multiplicity of orches-
tral eoneerta. i^ee these young pianists before
tbe public for artistic measurement, and If
the test Is successfully withstood, an opward
career Is twgnn. Xn this country, where the or*
Cbestraa are few and far between, and the ag-
gregate number of concerts comparatively small,
only "World -renowned soloists are enirased. It Is
therefore, qnlte evident where yonng talent'

The same practically holds good for vtoltalaia. '

THE SAD SONGS OF VAUDEVILLE.
When Dorothy De Puyster sailed away to for-
eign lands
I moped around and found the time hang heavy
on my hands. -
I thought of her the wlwle day long, nntn I
almost died; ■ :
I could not eat, or drink, or sleep, snd mnsed
on suicide.
"Some vaudeville will cheer me np," I said,
one afternoon;
.''I'll go and hear -some iolly Jokes, and learn
the latest tune.
1 11 see some nimble dancing and a pretty little
play. ' S
And for a while I may forget my absent llancec."
A dancing team was first of all. I felt Inclined
to hiss.
When they stopped dancing, atmek « pose, and
sang a song like this:
"Oh, yes, I loved her fondly, far more than I
can tell.
And now she's far across the stormy sea.
I thought my heart was broken tbe night I said
farewell
To the girl I lored la snnny Kankakee."
Neit^ame a baUad singer who was beantUol to.
This was the cheerfnl thing she sang, and
looked right straight at me:
Heart of mo heart, a last good-byel
We meet to part 'neath a cloudy sky.
Hear the sad wind through the pine trees sigh.
Heart of me heart, a last— good-bye!"
A sketch was next upon the bni,
laugh a bit:
It made me
But oh, they Introduced a song, and walled the
latest hit: ■
'•When the gol— den rod's— In ' bloom.
In the twi — light's ten — der gloom,
I will meet — ^you there— once more.
Where we part— ed years— before."
Two colored entertalnera came. "Oh, loyi" I
thought, I'll bear
Some merry rng'-tlme tunes," Alas! they Tcllnl
out loud and clear: '
"Oh, tulle, tnlle May,
I ain't got long to stay.

MUSICA L TRADITIONS
In England, Unlike America, Small Communities
Patronize the Art— Reminiscences of
Samuel Sebastian Wesley
,\ few rpmlnlscences of English mnslc and
Bius^iclans, by one who has led a busy profes-
elonal life In one of the most mnslcal centers
of England, may possess some interest.
Leeds (England), where I spent the greater
part of my musical life, holds a reputation sec-
ond to sone In Europe as a center of Une mnslcal
performances. Its grand old Parish cborcb con-
tains one of the largest and most maKOlBcent
organs in the country. The choir of fifty voices,
boys and men, bas always been recognized as
one of the foremast in England-
It was here, when a boy of nine, that 1 com-
menced my mnslcal training. Dr. Samuel Se-
bastian Wesley had but a few years previously
resigned his position to accept an appointment
at Winchester Cathedral, and It is one of my
greatest regrets that I never beard any of his
famous Improyisatlons .on the organ. A story
Is told to tbe effect that when a visitor to
Winchester wished to view the Interior of the
Cathedral after closing boors, he was refused
permission on the ground that Dr. Wesley could
not be disturbed as he was then practising
an "improvisation" which he was advertised to
play at a concert on tbe following day.
Whether there be truth in ttils or not. it is
quite certain that be had a remarkable (acnlty
for this kind of work. Those who have beard
M. Alex. Qollmant, the celebrated Skeneh or-
sairiBt, will realize tbe fascination of an ar-
tistic Improvisation. Hasy to whom I have
spoken coneemlns Wesley's extempore capablU-
tles assure me that they were quite extraor-
dinary, particularly so when preluding anthems
of bl8 own composition, gach as "Tbe Wilder-
ness," "Ascribe Unto The Ijord." "Blessed Be
The God and Father." To those who do not
know tbe aforementioned antbems, I would say.
procure copies of them at once. They contain
some of the highest, noblest, most descriptive
thoughts to be found In the vbole range of
ecclesiastical moslc. Organists aboida. certainly
know bis organ compositions, for In tbem will
be found a mine of musical wealth: no finer
works have ever been written for tbe lastm-
ment since the days of tbe Immortal Bacb.
Specially would I mention "Choral Song and
Fugue," "Andante In G minor." and "Fugue
in C sharp minor." Wesley was full of eccen-
tricities. Tbe lastest was as follows: He was
to "preside" at the "opening" of an organ;
also, several other notable organists were to
play some one item In tbe program. Organists
know that .very often the pedal keys become
very dippeir. On this occasion, Wesley, who
was then in the winter of life, insisted upon
each organist having the soles of his boots
chalked to resist the possible sllpperyness of
&e pedal board. It Is said that tbe process,
cmled out most gravely, was as comical as
coAlcal could be — ^none of the men vislung to
offend Wesley, yet seeing bow absurd tbe whole
tblng was to tbe onlooker.
It was a great loss to tbe city of I>eeds when
Wesley left it to go to Winchester; more par-
ticularly SO as shortly afterwards a magnificent
organ was erected in the Town Hall. Here,
nnder tbe direction of tbe corporation, may be
heard weekly organ recitals on the payment
of a nominal sum, twelve cents. The large
audiences that assemble at these performances
testify to the appreciatioii in which they ■ are
held. To me It seems very strange that a city
of tbe size, wealth, and mnslcal repatatlon
of Cincinnati, does not entertain a similar
state of affairs. It may not bp generally known
that In all English towns of Importance • there
wtU be found, in some public ball (usually the
Town Hall), a fine organ, erected at tbe ex-
pense of tbe rate-payers, and, also, a first-rate
orsanist. engaged also the poblle expense.
These organ, recitals are quite a featnre in
the musical life of the people, and are In-
variably weU attended. Witness the dllBcnlty
In obtaining a seat at the Satnrday evening
recitals at St. George's Hall, Uverpool, at the
Town Halls of Manchester, Iieeds, and other
places.
From an educational point of view, tbe value
of these recitals can not be overestimated, for
In the absence of a Srst-rate ordiestra, a flrst-
rate organist can give a more artistic render-
ing of an orchestral work (transcribed for tbe
organ) than that given by a third-rate or-
chestra.
The organ In Iieeds Town Hall was designed
by Henry Smart, one of the best English com-
posers of organ music, and. In addition, a splen-
did mechanician. His devices to obtain or-
chestral effect' by various stop combinations,
were marvels of ingenuity, and have not been
surpassed, probably not equalled, even, at the
present advanced stage of organ mecbanlam.
Smart became quite blind In bla later days.
Amongst bis best organ compositions majr be
mentioned, "Three Andantes" in O,, 6 minor,
tnd G major, all written In symphonic form,
and, needless to say, all of great artistic
worth. A fine work, "Air, with vorlatlona,"
Is well fitted for concert purposes. As a writer
of Part Songs, Henry Smart takes a very high
place. Borne of them are quite charmlnir—
The Shepherd's Xsment, lAlIaby, Bow Sweet
The Moonlight. Poor Smart was always In
debt. A mutual friend told me that he held
a sufficient number of bis I O U'a to paper a
fairly capacious room.

choir-boyhood days, whenever we received our
quarterly payment (a day eagerly looked for-
ward to), we at once rushed to tbe nearest
fish shop and bought a crab each, followed by
another rush Into the adjacent "toffy" shop
(toffy that stuck to the gums); this was fol-
lowed by a visit to tbe tobacconist, where each
boy armed himself with a long, sn&ke-like cigar,
known as a "vivy-fln." Of course each carried
his own box of fuses. Thus equipped, we were
very, very happy — for a time. Presently the
"vivy-fin" would begin to take effect, and we
became very, very miserable. Crab, toffy and

Lydia O'Neill, One-Time Favorite Pupil of the Great
Teacher, Describes Her Methods
and Personality
After singing over three years In church, con-

cberlshed ambition to study with tbe one teach-
er in the world whose pupils gave the most
satisfaction to me personally and the one whose
pupils bad occupied more positions of promi-
nence now and In the past than any other
teacher I knew of. I therefore went to Paris
and wrote for an appointment with . Madame
MarcbesI- which shp at once granted me. My
first lmpr<*ssion of her was a dignified, slightly
cold "grand dame," who received me conde-
scendingly and held me at arms' length. She
questioned me as to my previous teachers and
experience and then intimated her willingness
to hear, me sing. All through the preliminary In-

tervlew she seemed to be Intensdy amnsed at
what I told her and when I proposed to sing
the grand aria from Hamlet she smiled broadly
and said. "I will first hear some scales and
tone production to see what yon really do
know." After singing a few scales and some
tones she enquired why I did certain things
and on whose authority— which of course made
me very nervous; seeing that I was disturbed
and nervous she turned and said, "Every teach-
er has a different method. There are thonaanda
of methods and I do not recognise any of tbem
as they are entirely different from mine. I can
hear, however, that yon have a very good voice,
but It has not been cultivated property." Upon
this She suggested that I sing an aria and
called h!>r accompanist in. I sang tlM aria from
from Philemon- and Baucis. After rendering this
aria she turned to the accompanist and said pas
mal (not bad)'. She then asked me to sing an-
other. I sang tbe mad scene from Hamlet
which she received with a sort of shrag of the
shoulders, at the same time saying, "You
show good training, but faulty.'^ Becoming
more genial, she Informed me that U I wlahed
to take lessons from her I would have to comr
mence at tbe beginning and go through her
regular course of stn^. To one wbo had
achieved success In her professional career
this remark came like a cold donche and
I experienced the flist appUeatton of what I
afterwards found to be the key note ot Uadame's
training, via: that every one of her pnplla, no
matter what her previous training or experience
might have been must lend themselves to her
methods and practically admit. Hr so doing,
that wliat they knew prevlonsly ssnst be. to
a. larg; extent ht least, forssttok
I did not arrange for lessons then, but re-
turned to America.
The more I thought about her the more I waa
Impressed wltb the woman I had met and about
a year later I returned to Paris to enter her
school, sink my dignity and begin at the be-
ginning again. Madame received me tills time
with open arms and made arrangements to give
me private lessons for about six weeks, com-
ing during her luncheon hour, in order that I
might have rapid advancement and enter a dasa
after having passed through the period of ac-
quiring her manner of tone production, etc.
Here I may say that Madame teaches entirely
In classes — one dass in the forenoon and en*
In the afternoon— each clsss meeting three times
a week for abont three honra.' The classes Im
my time varied from ten to Ofteen In nnmber:
and in my opinion, this class training la one
of the most valuable features of tbe MarchesI
school.
At tbe piano sits the accompanist, ready to
play any piece In any key, at bis right In a
straight-backed chair, faultlessly dressed and
full of dignity, sits Madame: In tbe center a
platform about eight Inches high and round tbe
room were ranged the pnpOs from all conn-
tries — some young and Inexperienced, and some
some professional artists of Ions experience, but
all. In the eyes of Madame, beginners. A new
pupil comes In for her first lesson. Probably
she leaves the door open or shuts It with a
bang and proceeds to walk to a chair In a care-
less manner, when she is suddenly baited and
asked whether that is the way they treat doors
where she comes from, and then she la told
to close the door and walk across the floor In
a lady-Uke manner and Madame informa her
that her school Is not alone for music bat also
for deportment. The American girls generally
fall foul of this ordeal more than the Conti-
nental trained pnpUs, owing, to their lack of
the training in walking and general deportment,
which is part of the education of a Continental
European girl. This comes aa a dlStlact shock
and tbe pupil teela Out she has struck a new
atmosphere when attention to details la Tery
essential.
The new pnpil now sits down and awaits
further developments. Madame calls a pupn to
the platform and asks her what she has ready
to sing and liaTlng told her to begin, alts and
watches her careftilly. She will probably alng
placed vMce. She has anpplemented that foun-
dation witb ber own extensive experience and
developed the peculiarly beautiful and sweet
head tonea In which the Marcbesl pupils excel.
Second. lAoklng over Madame Marchesl's
memoirs we find that she has been tbe intimate
of every great European composer from Men-
delssohn down to those of the present day. Ber
Mozart and Beethoven traditions come from her
family who were intimate with tbem. Therefore,
when she gives her pupils the correct reading
of either dassical, operatic or lyric mnale It la
the reading approved by the composer and .aane-
tloned by him — the cadenzas (Or tlM operatle
arias are approved by the composer although
composed by her. and consequently, until some
one can show me better authority, I most CSO-
alder these readings to be the best.
Third. No teacher has the nnmber of great
and sncceasfol artists to her credit. To eoum-
erate them would take too much space, but
beginning with Gabrlelle Kraua', she baa pro-
duced lima de Murska, Gerater. Lucca, Nevada,
Melba, and scores of others, all dlstlngnlshed
by their artistic singing, parity of Intonaton
and perfect diction.
Fourth. Madame Marcheai speaks fluently
German (ber native tongue), French, English,
Italian, Spanish, and some Bnsslon, and her
diction of these langnagea la perfect.
Fifth. Her charm of manner, combined wltb
a certain quiet dignity, and surmounted by a
marvelous intellect, oommanda the respect and
love of the pupil and her Implicit obedience-.
Combining, as she does, the musical tradltlona
of the paat and preaent wth tbe wonderful ex-
perience of so many years and the advice and
assistance of the world'a greatest musiciana,
she has had unique opportunities and her per-
sonal genius has enabled ber to aeqnlre a fund
of accurate knowledge which no one who bas
not lived ta the annonndlngs she lias and has
taught as long as ahe has, eonld possibly ac-
quire.

SHOULD MAR ION DIE?
Former Actor, Sentenced to Death for Murder,
Appeals for Assistance to the

By FRANK WINCH.
GeoiKC Marion stands conTlcted of murder

shonld not die.
The first twelve are citizens of the town
which was Inflamed Into passionate treazy for
pnnlshlng Marlon, the other twelve, who live
elsewhere, have received the case nnbiasedly.
and are eager to keep Marlon from the gal-
lowi— if yoa were the judge, which twelve
men woold yoa believe?
It is not Tlie BilllMard's aim to thwart the
ends of Justice — the appeal was made to me by
men of onqoestlooed integrity, of absolote dis-
interestedness. Tliey raise a reasonable doQtit

like a restless liyena. His steps were rapid

the latter were imljedded in a face, the dome
of wUch moat have burned like molten metal.
He clenched his hands. Perspiration rolled
down ills face.. The latter was corpselike. It

forward to take down the barks of the poor

hands in agpny as he screamed, 'I do, I do.'
- '• •Ton don't,* I lelteiated. I didn't wish

my officiating as his amanuenais — aigalnst me

erratic, insane mind. But be insisted, and I
complied with liis request. He may: not l>e

wild, ferocious animal on the night I stood be-
fore his cell door and Jotted down his erratic
and Irregular ana rambling and weird details
which led ap to the killing of the only crea-
ture that he pretended to have loved. Do we
kill those whom we love? I again ask. No, a
tiionsand times no. When we place a trigger
against a loved one, pull It and send a ballet
crashing through the brain, then. Indeed we
are morally degenerate — then. Indeed, are we
insane. The addled mind directs the hand that
ever fondled to slay. The eyes which were
ever illumined with the sweet, sootliing light
of love, when we kill, bum fiercely and emit
hissing, spluttering flames which are fed, ever
fed. by the fuel of insanity. As the sharp and
■ndden contact of two pieces of steel produce
sparks, so does this friction of ungeared mental
wheels prodace aberration. That alKrration
may be harmlessly inclined — it may be .mnrder-
oody Inclined. That . alierratlon may me in-

It may have Jumped two or three generations,
yea. even a dozen generations, and then suddenly

may have been Idaatics— at least some of them.
Who knows? If 'be vrere cognizant of the crime

brain of the unfortunate woman, tiien he de-

consider It a pleasure to stand beside the scaf-
fold and listen to the music of the death gur-

George Marlon was on the.nlgbt In question."
He is regarded now as a rational haman be-
ing. He can see ssa f-fl and tUnk and real-

car. wander intelligently back to the merry,
halcyon days of his youth. He can see him-
self kneeling at the knee of Ills sainted mother,

He can see all the struggles which are crowded

orama-like before bis vision. He now finds
himself caged in an Iron-barred cell lllce a
wild lieast. 'He sees his visitors standing in

THE DEBT TO NATURE
Paid by Charles Feltman, September 20th— Noted
Coney Island Pioneer Expires in
Foreign Country
Charles Feltman, a pioneer who turned the
sandy wastes of Coney Island into a pleasure
ground, died September 20 at CasscI, Germany.
He was born in Vcrden. Hanover, Germany, in
1841, and came to this country when he was
fourteen years old. He had at first to work
as a laborer in a coarysrd and on a farm, but
in a little while obtained a Job with a baker
on Smith street. South Brooklyn. It was while
he was delivering bread along the ocean front
that he first dreamt of the possibilities of the
site.
He started In business as a baker on Classon
avenue in 1SC6, and built a large building at
Sixth avenue and Tenth street before the
streets were cut through. As he established
himself applied to one railroad - proprietor
after anotlier to help him in bis grand idea.

place plunged Into semi-darkness. He hears the
deep, heavy breathing of the unfortunates who
surround him. He tries to sleep. Can he?
What keeps him awake? Is he busy contrasting
the happy days of the past with the excruciat-
ing, terror-laden nights of the present? Or
Is It possible tiiat be sees his awful crime re-
enacted? Is it possible that he looks in the
comer of his whitewashed cell and there be-
holds a vision of the woman he loved, crouch-
ing at his feet, and with clasped, uplifted
hands, craving for that mercy which found, no
lurking place in his aberrated brain? How his
eyes must blaze as he sees iiimself pulling the
trigger. How his brain must reel as he sees
the Bash and hears the report of the weapon.
How be must shriek alopd as be sees her fall,
her face bespattered with blood, at his feet.
How his yells must awaken his sleeping com-
panions. How alfrichted %u8t be their gaze,
as they sit up on their cots, and shake with
tile fear which takes possession of them. But,
in his cooler moments, hope buoys him np. He
peers into the future and sees himself treading
the stage once more, receiving the plaudits of
the crowd. He sees himself once more Inhaling
the pure, fresh air of liberty, as does James
Gentry, the actor, who slew Madge Yorke, the
policeman's daaghter, fifteen years ago, ' and
whose pardon was secured by George Colinn. Bat
those awfal fifteen years robbed Gentry of his
Intellect. He Is now like the man who was.
His memory Is a thing of the past. Re simply
forgets. He. is a mental wreck. And should
Justice be kind to George Marion, will nature
be equally cruel?
Twelve men did not believe ttils— there are
twelve who do. Gentlemen, what is your ver-
dict? Shall Marlon die — If he was sane — 1
say he shoold; bat there's a doabt. r^t's be
loyal to the poor wretch — he was one of us
once. I stand for fair play; so do you. My
rtnilnr foes to T>in Hirt to-day. Wrap up your
bill and mall It to-day.

MANAGERS PROTEST
The City of Richmond, Va^ Goes Into Theatrical
Business and Managers Are Indignant at
This Competition
Th* city of KIctimoDd has gou« Into Uie show
buloMi and Yl(t>rouii proteat wUl b« proMbljr
b* made to tbe city council because ot It, at an
early day. Tbe tbeatre managers are putting
tbelr beads togetber and an effort to suppress
tbe alleged unfair competition may be- expected
at any time.
W. Greanor NesI, principal oirner and dom-
inant power in the Leatb Tbeatrlcal Company,
wblcb controls tbe flmt-class field in Virginia,
and of wblcb Jake Wells Is general manager,
soma up tbe altuatlon in s briat argument;
"Tile City Auditorium," be says, "Is a
mimletpal building. It was nerer Intended for
as* as a tbeatre. The grounds and building
committee of tbe council bas aeen Bt to rent
tbe building to trarellng attractions, wblcb Is
distinctly contrary to tbe spirit of the city goT-
emmant as It brings tbe rvgolsrly licensed tbea-
tres Into actual competition with an opposition
malBtalosd by Otm city. Tlie tbeatrea are re-
quired to pay license and taxes' and sbould
not be compelled to compete tor buslneas with a
bouse that Is exempt from these Items and light-
ed at the expense of tbe people of BIchmond."
Mr. Neal'a remarks were provoked by the
acUoa ot the monelpal committee which leased
tbe building to the BadcUffe Iiyceum Bureau,
ot Washington, D. C-, for a series of dramatic
and musical entertainments. Heretofore tbe
Radcltffe Bureau has played Its attractions at
the Academy of Music, payiOK the standard ren-
tal. Tbe contract with the manlclpal committee
glTea tbe BadclllTe Buresn tbe use of the City
Auditorium at a cost of fSO a performance. In-
cluding lights and exemption from license.
The City Auditorium, which was built prim-
arily for public meetings, conrentions and the
asea of the city goTerDment, Is a spacloug build-
ing with a seating capacity ot almost 4,000.
more than twice tbe capacity of any tbeatre In

LONDON LETTER
The Follies, on Its Recent Return to England, Meets
with Joyous Welcome— Evelyn Millard
- Opens m The Crisis
PARIS LETTER
A Further List of Plays Scheduled During the Com-
ing Season— Comedie Francaise Seems to
be Particularly Lucky with Five
The most cbeerf ol event of the Eeason so. fax
has been the retnnl ot Xbe Follies to London,
and witb tbem mlrtb and melody, gaiety and
fiollc. After an nnlnterrnpted rnn of oTer two
years they went away In the early spring for
a short enmmer tonr and holiday and now they
have returned, funnier If anything, than ever.
The first night was like the meeting of old
friends. Every number was rapturously ap-
plauded and It seemed as though the entertain-
ment would never be allowed to finish.
I have always understood that no entertain-
ment of a similar character has ever been
given In the United States so a short descrip-
tion here might not be out of place. The pro-
gram consists of three parts and the first Is
devoted to a mlsceUaneous entertainment. lou
get a moat charming singer In the person of
Miss Ethel Allsndale warbllnK the patlietic tale
of Pansy of Fenn^lvanla. Miss Gwennle Mars,
one of the most aceompllshed comediennes In
England, sings about tbe home she wants In
Sante Fe and explains the why and wherefore
In her daintiest manner, SnlaUng np with a
fascinating: dance. Then Lewis Sydney, a dole-
fnl looting comedian, offers up a new budget
oi whimsical stories, at the end of which the
audience is nearly exhausted from laughing.
Miss Bffle Cook and Miss Mnriel George, both
first-dass ballad singers, sing songs that loot
like becoming the first favorites at every em>-
cert this winter. Morris Harvey, carefully
apologizing for his lacit of vocal ability, offers
some Imitations of .BngUsh actors— * toart-
ment In which, he is nmntpaBSed. And thiough-
out — Pellsslcr blmseie. ■ ^
This young gentleman of some 300 ponnds in
-welslit. Is the piwiainjf genius of the whole con-
cotT It to be who writes an the songs and
mnaie, does the stage management, evolves «ie
wheezes that spread all over the town, and fin-
ally plays with such a zest that the rest can-
not help bnt follow. But the gem of the first
part Is the Arcadian Pastorale, a perfect little
niece of foolery. Fellssier Is the shepherd Cory-
Son; MISB Cook la the lltUe woolly Ismb and
while these two converse the rest of the com-
pany keep up a bleating refrain while Lewis
Sydney has a pecuUar buzz aU his ovm, '^at
Is that?" asks the indignant shepherd. ^"Ttat'
is the answer "la n n«>««^^"_3f£°l°'!?S,,i?
Tonns," and the boose rocfcs with langbter.
tnie flrst part, snbaeqnenay finishes with a
series of "Gastronomic Qnartettes.
The second part opens with a Voice Mrf.
Peilssler Is at home to aspirants for ids com-
pany. Xou get a heavy German contralto; the
Client 'cdHst who murders tte classics ai^
then discovers that his true forte Ues In recit-
ing and bursts Into an Impassioned jendratog of
thS Pool of Blood. Then a Spanish Toreador—
hnalled off on the spot! a demure Uttle maiden
"who can play the violin and ""»5I«»SLJ5SS

accent would bring about bis Instant murder m
Glasgow; a damsel at the awkward age— known

she Is determtoed to have nothing more to do
with men. However, she falls to love wltt Ser-
val, and he rciprocatlng, she makes up her mind
she hud better clear -out altogetter. Then
comes the great scene ot the play.
Renee has a lover — a mere stage dude — who
Is in the habit of visiting her at night. One
night Camille accidentally sees him at the
house. Adrlen unexpectedly returns Just after
an unexpected check In his political career.
Camille consoles him an i cheers him and then
he wants to see his wife. Camille Is hoirlfied,
and 'knows not what to do to prevent him going
to his wife's bedroom. Finally as a last re-
source she adopts the desperate expedient of
asking him to stay with her. He does so.
From tbe stage point of view the scene is ef-
fective, risky as it Is. AU tbe same' it is un-
convinclDg. On the fact of it the situation Is
deliberately manufactured. It does not develop
of Itself. Like tte rest of tbe play It jnst falls
short of **grip.'* - .
After this scene, Kennee comes to suspect
Camille, who admits the truth; bnt learns also
that Camille deceived her to save her. There
Is anotuer big seene between the tnvo women,
but eventually Camille goes away wittont tell-
ing Adrien wbat she knows lor fear of starting
a scandal and ruining his career. Slie might
have secured Serval for hereslf but for bis sake
passes right out of his life.
From .beginning to end one has not tte alight
est sympathv with a single character. Axter
a time- the old artifices and general artificiality
begin to bore., one completely. Even the actors
seemed unable to do ttelr best. As first rate
artists aU, of course, acted weU, but one
conld see that their parts held very little in-
terest for tbem. Miss Evelyn Millard depicted
the growing love, the hestitation and self
torture of Camille very well, but throughout'
her acttog lacked warmtt. As Beimee, Miss
Sarah Brooke was good, but then she treated
the part -as appertaining to sheer melodrama —
perhaps tte best way In tte clrcnmstances.
Norman IfcKinnel did tte best he- conld with
the exceedingly dull part of Adrian. whUe Athel
Stewart worked hard to put some life into tte
colorless lovar. Still, act as well as ttey like,
Z don't tliink that those engaged in this piece
can ever make it a success. Miss Mlliard bad
better Jfind sometliing a Uttle better quickly.
She should- get Bndolf Besler, ; who is tbe author
of last season's greatest success. 2>on. to write
her a play. He would be better employed than
In translating ttlrd-rate iPrench' plays.
For bis first managerial enterprise Gerald dn
Uanrler chose a. piece called Ncyiwdy's Daugh-
ter, by George Pastoo, which was produced
at Wyndham'a Theatre wltt great edat. Tak-
ing talm all; 'round I suppose du Uanrler is
easily tte most popular, actor— from tte per-
sonal potot of view ot tte andlence — In London
at tte present time and everyone on tte first
night was . ttere prepared to give the most en-
ttnslastlc reception possible. Every curtain
was fdlowed by half a dozen caUs and at tte
end tte young manager had to make a-speech —
a precedient which seemed to cause him con-
siderable embarrasment. m choosing tte pres-
ent play*' du Maurier has shown considerable
bustoess acnmen and a keen valuation of popular
taste. . There is not a new idea In it nor a
striking phrase.' It Is stuff witt 'which tte pub-
lic bave been familiar for a generation^ brought
up-to-date In this tostance by tte totrodnctlon
of a aeroplanlst with a broken arm and a suf-
.Iragette' who discourses on tte ettics of ma-
ternity. But In addition to tte useful quality
ot familiarity the piece is also foU of good old-
fashioned sentiment and emotion. , -fHle story
Is tte old, old one of tte pre-nuptial child
"nobody's daughter."
In this case the changes are nm^ by tte' par-
ents being very bappl^ manled. not to each
otter, bnt:to somebody else, and tte sltnation
arises when tte nurse who has reared the child
compels tbe motter -to tak'e her nineteen-year-
old daughter Into her household. There Is, of
course, the final discovery 1)y 'the mother's hus-
band, but equally, of course, the final curtain Is
quite satisfactory, and descends on the sinner
In tte husband's arms, tt^ otter sinner, off to
command some motmted Infantry, wltt his wife
holding his hand and nobody's daughter off to
marry a promising mechanic. Tbe acting was
tip-top.
Du Maurier, released from bis two years'
coarse of playing tte np-to-date gentlemanly
burglar, put to a first . rate performance as tte
alert. and Jolly ImSband.of tte.raotter of "no-
body's daughter;" Lillian Bcalttwalte, as 'tte
motter, Bosalle TeUer as tte daughter, Hary
Rorke as tte nurse with a' conscience for lit-
eral readtogs of scrlpttre, and Mr. Sydney 'Val-
entine as the other sinner, aU worked liked Tro-
jans to give dn Manrler a good start and ap-
parently ttey succeeded weU.
.Uthongh only a couple of miles from the
center of London, tte Coronet Theatre has
hltterto always been regarded as a suburban
house. '^Tenceforward tte proprietor. Robert -Ar-
ttnr. Intends to nm It on the "West End" lines,
that Is to say, he will abandon the system of
having totirtog companies In favor of the pro-
dnction by his own companies ot new and or-
iginal plays.
This new regime he has Just toaugurated b.v
tte production of a four-act play by Madame Al-
banesl, entitled Slater Anne, with Marlon Terry
In tte title .part. It Is two years since ttls
great actress has been seen on the London
stage, so her admirers made tte Instance In
question an event wMch could not be missed.
Sister .Anne Is aiv attractive elderly spinster.
Her yoimg step-dsnghter, Pamela, has a lover
whom she drives to suicide on tte eve of her
marriage to a wealtty suitor. .David, tbe lov-
er's brotter, swears venseance. bnt is pre-
vented by an act of heroic adf-saCfUlee on tte
part of Bister Anne, who mairlcs Oand, be-
IleTtnx that be loettes her. Tbeo, of coarse,
she dlseoveia that he really lores her ud.ln
the end she has some admirable scenes to vrbleb
sbe Is admirably supported bv Norman Trevor
as David. Taken altivetter, however, tbe play
Things arc picking up. The dead calm Is
passing and a bit ot breeze is blowing in the
dramatic business.
September always brings something else
besides oysters, and among other things, we
have tte rumors of what Is coming in mid-
season, theatrically speaking. Some o( the
forecasts never come true, but then that can t
be helped. It's bound to rain sometimes when
tte weatherman predicts sunshine. It can t
soCh ttat
tte weatherman predicts sunshine,
be got around. .
So tte public ought not to say things and ac-
cuse him of bad faith when a theatre manager
promises somotbing then can't make good im-
mediately thereafter.
The Comedie Prancalse appears to have a
glowing season ahead ot it. For example. This
week, the first new piece of the fail Is to be
produced there. It is called Comme Us Sont
Tons (How They Are All), and Is by Adolpn
Aderer and Armand Ephralm. I have given a
literal translation of the title, and no language
permits of that. It is necessarily a bit vague.
; don't know the text of the play, nor have
even a hl?t of the plot, tterefore I can't do
Ijetter.
.After ttls piece the Comedie Francaise will
offer a play from the pen of Pierre Wolff. The
title of ttls piece has not yet been selected,
however, though the names of tte distinguished
stars to appear in it are known. De Feraudy,
Grand, Bernard, Jaques de Feraudy, Numa and
Mmes. Plerat, MalUe, Boblnne. Provost, and
Faber are tte principals selected for tte cast.
Xext In order will be a new play by Henry
Bemsteto. Apres Mol (After Me!) is the title
of it, and a good deal of curiosity has already
been manifest to the work, tte public having
been promised it some seasons ago. Mme.
Bartet and Le Bargy are to be the main per-
sonages in Its creation, and It Is safe to say
that Apres Mol will be one of tte gala ptodoe-
tlons of tbe year. I understand ttat ail Amer-
ican manager has already spoken for this piece
and holds an option on it. After tte Bernstein
piece comes Le Menage de MoUere (Mollere's
Joosebold) a piece In verse by Maurice Don-
nay, to this will 1>e seen Le Bargy as Molicre,
and. in a way, this production will be for
Paris -wliat tte Passion Play is for the Ober-
ammergauers. The Comedie Francaise, some
times called the "House of Mollers." is a sa-
cred Instltttion tor tte French, and ttIspla.TlnK
of MoUere blmaelt on tte stage of the "House
of Moliere," will not ;didy be sometblng of a
novdty, hot Will he-^r ought to be— a paying
one, as -welL
Cher Maltre (Dear Master), four acts by
Femand Varendem, is the flftt play ot the
series mentioned. De Feraudy will play the
principal part In this. And, of coarse, there
will be, several revivals ot other pieces "which
have been tested and found all to tbe good In
the repertory of this tteatre.
Twice I have mentibned tte name of Le Bar-
gy as one of the artists selected for plays at
be Ci>medle Francaise. I had understood that
this actor was to leave ttls theatre; ttat be
had already handed in bis first resignation, and
ttat only a repetition of ttls resignation was
necessary, in conformity to tte traditions of
the playhouse, to order to make good the final
severance.
So I called at tte theatre and asked M. Prud-
hon — ^In tte absence of M. Jules (Haretle —
whEt it all meant. He only smiled and leplled:
"Yoa see.. I am only telling yon the proba-
bilities when I give out the new plays and
ttosc who are to create tbem."
It was all very diplomatic, and didn't tell
me anything. . I inqnired elsewhere as to
whether Le Bargy. the great Le Bargy, is to
reconsider bis resignation and remain at the
Theatre Francaise. No one seemed to know,
hut It is ImoH-n that Le Bargy made the state-
ment that he ■Kill NOT remain at tbe Come-
die if Director Claretie stays there, and cer-
tainly there Is no indication of Claretie ever
leaving. So Le Bargy will probably go to tte
Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, as has been an-
notmced. This will be somewhere about next
spring, though, If I ain anything of a proph-
et. .
Becqne's Pollchinelles has been finished, by
whom nobody seems to know, bnt finished It
Is and will be one of the pieces to be staged
at the Comedie Francaise sooner or later. When
Becque died be left ttls piece unfinished, and
at ttat time people were almost as curious,
abont It as they were about Bostand's Chan-
teder. So there has been a good deal ot talk
abont somene finishing It each season for a long
while. At last tbe mysterious SOMEBODY has
done It. But no amonnt' of coaxing will or
can get the. name from anylwdy.
ATHENEE OPENS.
(Conttooed on page 68.)
Le Dansear Inconnn (The Unknown Dancer)
has been revived at the Athence, which opened
Its season this week. The comedy by Tristan
Bernard, which had such a auccess last season,
when It was. produced, bids fair to give the
house a good start In this.
Le Bel Ete (The Good Summer) will be tbe
flrst new piece to be seen at this tteatte. The
date for the premiere has not yet been decided
upon, as it will not be set until signs show
tbat the voEue of Le Danseur is passing. Louis
Artus is tbe author of tbe new work. Jeanne
Bolly will play the principal female character,
and Andre DnbOK win he the leading man.
VAUDEVILLE.
Tea Denx Ecoles, at the Vaudeville, Is draw-
ing big houses, as It deserves. It is a cork-
tog little comedy, and since It was produced
In 1902,' It has had two revivals, both suc-
cesses.
After this Capns creation shall have served
Its purpose, a series of new works will he tried
oat. Paul Bonrget's Le Tribun (Hie Dema-
gogue) Is one ot tte early ones scbednled. and
llkewliie the first piece ever written In French
by Gabriel d'Aoonnzlo. the Italian anttor (title
not annooeed). will be staged here. The tltla

self a witticism: Qrioemi, by tbe Binn Heml

supposedly, abont tte first of fbe year or be-
fore,
THE ODEON
Director Antolne is making great preptra-
tlons for tbe Odeon's season, and wlttout doubt
he wishes to make It tte most brilliant and at
the same Ume tte most original seen ttere for
many years. Laat week, for tostance, I told
of his engaging Vllhert and Dranen, two clever
miislc haU comedians, of tte kind we caU
"low," for "high" comedy plays — Monslenr
de Pourceaugnac and Le Medecin Malgie I<ul.
Here are his plans furtter elaborated:
In addition to tte translated plays of Shakes-
peare, M. Antolne has secured a new work by
Bernard sbaw which he proposes to make mnen
of. He has also another play, by Tctaekow,
which is said to be extremely original. It It
probable ttat Dranem and Villiert, thetetore.
win be seen to a Bernard Sbaw role.
OlMBB OFFERINGS.
Henri Michean has definitely dedded to begto
the season at the Nonveautes Thnrsdty nltbt ot
next week. Bis vehicle will be a new piece
entitled L* Enlevement des Sabines (Tbe Abduc-
tion of the Sabine Women).
Mon Ami, Teddy (My Friend. Teddy) will be
revived at the Benaissance tte first of October,
when Director Tarride, who has been on a
tour of America, will have rettmed. He has
been over on your side of the water getting
Ideas on how theatres are ran ttere. The
wheels wUl not be in good running order wltt
this revival when tte long-expected Le Vlell
Homo, by Georges Porto Blcbe, will be pro-
duced. Mme. Simone will create tbe leading
femtolne part at tte suggestion of Porto Bicbe
himself.
The Varieties will open with Le Bols Sacre.
a revival of last spring's success, already re-
viewed In The Billboard.
The Gymnase's first piece will also be a re
vlval; by name. La Vlerge Folle, which Cbarles
Frohman has bought for America.
At the Theatre Berahardt, prior to her -ro-
ttm to tte stage, will be seen La Ckiquete
d'Attenes, by Albert dn Bols. Also there is to
be produced there a drama (unnamed) by An-
dre de Lorde.
At the Porte Salst Martin, Chantecler Is
always tbe thing. There Is no Indication ot
a let-np. It Is now nearing Its SOOtt perform-
ance and is still going . strong. However^ Di-
rectors Hertz and Coqoelto are not to be caoght
napping. The sommer Hock at tontlsta have
kept Chantecler on tbe vring, bnt ttere la some
doubt as to how long be can austato this flight
after the return of tbe regular ttestiegaliK
bimch. So two plays are held In instant re-
serve, one, L'A'^entorler (Tbe Adventurer), s
four-act play by Alfred Capiu, and L'Enfant de
L' Amour (Tbe Love Cihlld). by Henry BatalUe.
This latter play Is also In fonr acts. Lnclan
Gnltry, Jean Gaquelin, Andre Bmle, Mme. He-
Jane and Dorzlat are said to be encased for
ttese productions.
Mme. Cora Laparcterle. ot the Bonfles Paris-
lens, has come on tte scene again. She will

MOULIN BOUOE'S TROUBLBS.
Business affairs at the Monlln Roage have
been going badly for some time. Tbu week
therejnras a real scrap between rlTSI manatm.
On Friday s meeting ot the shaieboldum .was
held, which, . according to report, reinstated a
former manager who had been let go some
months ago, and two co-managers substltnted.
He took possession at eight o'clock the next
morning. A quarter ot an hour later tte two
co-managers arrived and ordered tbe lone one
to clear out. Be refused. Pistols were whipped
out (tte drawers assert that they were property
pistols 'Witt blank cartridges) and things began
to ham. And to pop. The lone manager re-
tired from tbe field of battle temporarily st
least, besten.
The sails of the Monlln Rotlge are sailing
on to all tbelr scarlet freedom. Bnt tbe conrta

book, for the solitary defender of tte Bed
Mill asserts he was shot at with ball car-

all the scene shifters stmek In an endeavor to

they were retoforced by the property hands. All
to no avail. The matinee performance yester-

Tears stood in tbe eyes of Robert Reynolds,
Drealdent of the exposition company, as be bade

Tbe other directors were equally affected by the

great t>oom to business among the mercbants and
manufacturers Is evinced by the interest shown
In the exhibits by the thousands of visitors
from every state in the country.
From the point of attendance alone tbe Ex-
position haa been a marked success. The at-
tendance exceeded the hopes of many of
the olBclala. The total attendance daring
the S6 days was 416,820 paid admissions. Tbe
paid admissions np to Satorday nigbt were 431,
412, or an average of 18.000 a day. Tlie biggest

Directors hold a meeting to be called by Presi-
dent Reynolds. Tbe revenue derived from tbe
exhibits was about $123,000. Tbe estimated
expenses of tbe Expositlou Company were about
$250,000. Tbe production of tbe opera Paoletta
alone represented an outlay of some $70,000. It
is on this that tbe Directors have found their
one big depressing point In tbe finances. Tbe
receipts of the opera amounted to only about
$30,000 to $30,000. This opera, declared by tbe
best critics to be one of the most beautiful
productions ever staged in this country, never-
tbeless failed to enlist tbe support at popular
prices necessary to overcome tbe immense out-
lay. Everytfalng else in tbe amusement line
made money for tbe Exposition Company. Tbe
percentage from the Over-the-BhIne Restaurant
receipts paid many times over for tbe cost of tbe
building, and also made money for tbe pro-
grletors. Tbe Fighting the names on Ship and
tiore spectacle was tbe I>l8gest. money-maker
on the gronnds, although Getson's midget cir-
cus was a close second.
THE PLOT TH ICKENS
Complications in Theatrical War, Already Numer-
ous, Augmented by the Atlanta Episode.
Al. G. Field vs. Klaw &ErIanger
- Atlanta, Ga., -Sept. 34. — The war between
Klaw and ErIanger and the Shuberts took on a
spectacular aspect today, wben the first actual
clash between the two big theatrical rivals was
witnessed. In today's battle figures prominent-
ly tbe minstrel show owner, Al. G. Field.
The cause of tbe clasli is the failure of Mr.
Field to beed the orders of Klaw & ErIanger
to play the Orpbeam Theatre, here. Instead of
tbe Grand, as Field contracted. Field claims
tbat last year be made a contract with Klaw
& ErIanger, representing tbe DeGives, to play
tbe Grand. Later when the Grand came Into
the possession of the Shuberts, and the Orpbeum
was secured by Klaw & ErIanger, tbe latter firm
changed the name Grand to Orpbenm . in the
Field contract witbout bis consent, and then In-
sisted tbat Field switch bis date from tbe Grand
to tbe Orpbenm. This Field refused to do.
Attorneys representing Klaw & ErIanger In-
formed Field that their clients demanded the ap-
.pearance of his compaoy at tbe Orpbenm. It
was mmored that an injnnction would be asked
for restraining Field from playing the Grand.
WATTERSON R. ROTHACKER.
The Billboard experiences considerable regret In announcing tbe resignation of Mr. W- R.

unnsual possibilities for success. He has been In tbe newspaper and amasemcnt field aU his

The Billboard acknowledges its loss and wishes him success.

Wm. Clayton, last season with Fay Foster and

Park, Ft. Wayne, Ind., has closed the , theatre
and gone to Chicago,
This, however, was not forthcoming, and Field
showed at the Grand to a crowded house.
Klaw & ErIanger also notified tbe Shuberts,
through Manager Eldredge. of the Grand, that If
Field played there the Shuberts would be held
responsible for damages, "for any connection
tfaey might have with tbe breach of contract."
While no Injunction was Issued and Field was
permitted to give his performance at the Grand.
It Is rumored that Klaw ErIanger will bold
Field responsible for alleged failure to comply
with the c<mtract.

Contentkm That Publishers' IV^
la music tlmpij to uniae or !■ it to edu-
cate as wen as amue? A certalo class cf
people amose and the otber class amuses as
well as educates. It lias often been said
tbat Uie iiBodier of people prefentng Uie better
-das* of mnslc Is gradnallr atmlnlshlng. TMs
is sot tme. There are jost as manr people
now that prefer tbe better class of music as
there erer were, but of course they are In the
minority, simply because the majority of band
and orchestra leadeis who have no Idea as to
quality of music, make np their programs of
nearly sll the popular or what Is so termed
trashy numbers Is no Indication that there Is
the true sitnation. Most programs offered to
the public consist of about ten popular num-
bers and possibly one or two good numbers.
Now, why should the lover of good music be
compelled to sit through ten numbers which are
of no Interest to bun, to hear one or two
Dumbers of bis choice? Wby not give both
classes an equal consideration? The leader
shoold try to amuse the listener who bas
some knowledse of music as well aa he who
has none. Compare the programs of today with
those of ten or fifteen years ago, and you will
find them Just the reverse. In those days tbe
program consisted of eight or ten good numbers,
and tbe rest of the program was made no of
Ugbt numbers. Why gbonld this be when we
have as many musical people now as we had
then? The qnestlon has often been asked.
What broSght abont this change? In my opin-
ion the fault lies with the publisher of popu-
lar mnslc These pnbll^eis, to popularize tliclr
pobllcatlda, send out copies gratis to every
band and orchestra leader of mj reputation
(and to a great many of no repntatlon), and
in the course of time the leader becomes loaded
np with this stnir. and bis library ewslsts of
nothing but popolar music, as the good class
of music Is not given away. So long as the
publishers of popular mnsic keep the leaders
supplied without charge wltb this class of mu-
sic, and aa long as the leader will not buy any
of the better class of mnsic, just so long will
tbe conditions remain as they are at present.
A great many compositions ate not worth tbe
paper they are printed on. but tbe leader is
supplied with a copy without charge, and says.
••Oh, well. It will do to fill in with" But If
the leader had to pay for bis music he would
not bave such stufF In this library, and conse-
quently this stuff would not be Inflicted upon
tbe public. . There, however, are some leaders
that ate aa - exception to .tbis inle, and wbo
know there is a mnaical public. This is tbe
successful leader; be uses good Judgment and
tries to please both classes, and delights In
making programs which are a credit to him.
Music stands at- the b^d of all amnsemehts
or entertainments throughout tbe entire world,
and as the world is made up of all classes of
people. It Is the leader's duty to cater to 'and
amuse the different classes. There are, of
course, some people that do not care for mu-
sic of any kind, but they are few In number,
and the leader should remember that the lover
of good music should receive the same conald-

It costs a great- deal of money to prepare for
tbe mnslcal stage. The technique can not be
acquired, like that- of the drama, through soli-

CHICAGO MUSIC NOTES.
Victor Kremer bas made the following state-
ment regarding his being voted out of the Vic-
tor Kremer Company, a ballot which at first
by Mr. Kremer was considered a calamity,
but which be now cooslden aa -the best thins
listed in tbe passing events of -bis career, -Be-
garding the sitoation. Mr- Kremer says;— Some
people are under the impression that I sold
out my interest in tbe company, wlilch bears
my name, bnt it is a mistake. I was voted
out as presidFut of the company, which I found-
ed af teen years ago, simply because 1 paid more
Attention to pushing hits than guarding my per-
san.il interests. Hence 1 was compelled to start
up again- I am now glad that I was voted
out because 1 am now In better position to carry
out my ideas without being hampered by part-
ners, who dirt not give the mnslc business their
entire attention. I have the capital to do
things right, smi jndKing from tlje orders re-
ceived during the first month, my new enter-
prise looks like a huge success right off tbe reel,
and when I am ready to announce tbe names of
the people Interested with me In tbe promotion
of tbis business. I think all will agree with me
that the Victor Kremer Co-operative Mnslc House
will In a very short time be the greatest music
house in the country. Plans are not as yet com-
plete and therefore I am not in the position
to give out the details for publication, which
I should like to do right now.
And about all that Mr. Kremer has said Is
true. His songs have certainly hit tbe right
spot of tbe performer's want and need. Sophie
Tncker wires from the coast that tbe Angle-
worm Wiggle is tbe greatest number she has
ever used, and Sophie has used several. She Is
using a special wardrobe for this number In or-
der to get the snake efTect, something unusual.
Will Phllbrick Is making the hit of his life with
She's a Patient of Mine in Jumping Jupiter,
Richard Carle's new show at tbe Cort Theatre,
and Geo. Austin Sfoore is doing the same thing
with the same number in vaudeville. Bert Wil-
liams wlU Introduce Victor Kremcr's very la-
test song entitled Its Leavin* Time as soon as
orchestrations bave been made, and Miss De-
marast will introduce still another called Just
Because, in M—dam Sherry, which had such a auc-
cesafnl mn at the Colonial Tbeatre In Chicago
and Is now duplicating tbe trick In Gotham.
Now that the incorporation papers to the tune
of two hundred thousand dollars, bave been
recelTed. Mr. Kremer has eyeiytUiiK ready for
tbe opening of branch olllces In New York, PU-
ladelphla, and Boston, wtaere be has already
reptesentatlres boosting Kremer melodies. Tbis
was all accomplished on his recent eastern
trip, which kept him away ftom Chicago the
taat two weeks. Sneeeaa to yon Ifc. Kremerl
One of the most remarkable of tbe energetic
music men prominent and popular In Chicago
and New Tork, is the- little Irish bundle of
nerves and springs, entitled Thomas Mayo
Geary, who at the present writing la the west-
ern representative of the Theodore Morse Mnsic
Company. He first came in tbe public eye as a
boy soprano and as such, toured tbe country un-
til 1896, at which time his voice started to
change. After that be took up straight dra-
matic work, appearing with Jas. A. Heme In
Shore Acres and other plays of like calibre. He
then took op music and started writing songs,
turning out what, at that time, was a big hit
for Wmiams and Walker, entitled I'm tbe
Warmest Member In tbe Land. Imbued with
the £erm of success, he continued In tbis line of
endeavor, and turned out otber well-known bits
as Tbe Man Wltb the Ladder and the Hose,
Your Dad Gave. His Life for His Country, etc.
Through this be became the - manager of tbe
American Advance Music Co.. which at that
time was being promoted by the Hearat newspa-
pers. It wag here that Paul Dressier heard of
Tommy, and after some . arrangement, the
Paul Dressier Music PublllShlng Co. was incor-
porated, with Mr. Geary the president and gen-
eral manager. Shortly after this Mr. Geary was
taken with a severe attack of nervous prostra-
tion from over-work and was compelled to re-
linquish all business cares.
Go West young man" at this point sounded
mighty good to Tommy, so be devoted the next
two. years to building up bis health in order
that be might come to Chicago and reap tbe
harvest of bis previous acompllsbments In' a
new field, which be was wise enough to know
was tbe most promising of all In the music pub-
lishing business. It was tbis year that he
opened the Chicago office of tbe Theodore Morse
Co., and that be bas worked night and day
at b^ old profession Is shown by tbe fact that
he has succeeded in having Molly Lee. He's a
College Boy and others of tbe Morse catalogue,
sung tbrongbont tbe Middle West. He Is now
busUy plugging Phoebe Jane, If This Eose Told
Vou All It Knows, You're Mine, All Mine, and
the big star song of the catalogue, entitled
Good-Bye Betty Brown. Mr. Geary says tbat
this Is tbe greatest song that Morse bas writ-
ten since Good-Bye Dolly- Gray and Tommy
surely should know.

Just why some new music publishers make a
"go" of their venture and why some do not Is
not an easy question to relegate from one's
cnrloslty shop, bnt a few of the very essential
chaTaeterlstics and virtues are surely popularitv
of the people behind, of tbe methods of demon-
stration, of the business dealings.— and good
songs. AU these have been proven necessary,
and as the new ones grow or "flop" from tbe
mnslc publishing map, one can see . easier . tbe
truth of this statement. Maybe it was all these
that made tbe Aubrey Stauffer Music Company
the success tbat It Is, and perhaps it wasn't,
but at any rate it was some of them. Both
Aubrey Stauffer himself and Ernie Erdmau. be-
fore they ever embarked in tbe game at all.
were two of tbe best known song writers and
entertainers Chicago ever knew. With all this
popularity and the fact that both were "honest
and true** business men. make It appear tbat
their launching on the turbulent sea of music
pabllBhlng with a catalogue ot substantial melo-
dies wUl land them higher and dryer on the
golden shore -of success as the days wave on-
ward.
Aubrey Stauffer bas contributed That Lovln'
Tranmerl and Patricia O'Brien, wbile Ernie
Erdman has given us I'm Lonesome For You All
the Time, Starlight Sioux, When I Say Oood-
Bye and In September, all ot which stand sharps
and fiats above the ordinary run of popular
numbers. Fred M. Fagan supplied Tbat Pe-
culiar Rag, wlilcb to our way of thinking. Is
Just about the best we have beard since Wild
Cherries. But in conjunction with ' all these
characteristics, there are others, which might
have helped considerably In augmenting the
present borne of the firm. Mr. Stanfer is a
graduate of the Denver Conservatory of Music,
wbtre be later was a member of the faculty
in •the theory department. He also studied or-
chestration in r.ondon and Paris, whore be Is as
well-known as he Is In Chicago, a fact, which
Is almost inconceivable to liis closer nssoclatos.
Ernie Erdman. before losing bis remarkable
voice, bad a future of great promise in tbe
concert field, bnt that loss In forcing him to
tbe piano, gave the public probably a better
chance to reap the beneflt of his arlEtnaltty
along tbe Hues of melodies, which touch tbe
heart strings. Mr. Sidney Erdman and Mr.
Clyde Wood, the latter a former Harry Von
Tilser man. have been added to tbe professional
staff of tbe Stauffer Company — which means tbe
additional, two more syncopated ban of popu-
larity.
•*
Still another Arm which Is comparatively new
and Is steadily forging to the front with start-
ling rapidity, is tbe Harold Rossiter Music C<i..
of which concern Jimmie Summer Is tbe big
attraction professionally- JImmlc's blrtrest bit
is Rubbernecking Moon, tbe most recent effort
of Chris Smith. Tbat It really is a song suc-
cess is best shown by tbe fact ithat already such
singera and acts as the fnllowlDg an -using It:
Hazel Morris, Julian While. Jack Walten,
Harry Walters, Bessie Brown, Marjorle
O'Bourfce, Rtta and X-ea Hamlin, Kiln O'Oell,
Haicl nrowu, Billy JobniwD, Cook and SteTonn,
Fiddler and Sbelton, Abbie Ultcbell, College
City Four, Tbe Ras Time Pair, The Two Clip-
pers, Tbe Smart Set Co., Lake and Lester. Ox-
ford Quartette and tbe Imperial Comedy Four.
Then there la a touching little number composed
bv Jimmie himself, which Is called Little Uald
of Old Chicago, and Is belns (eatnred by Bd-
ward Scott. Rita and Lea HamllB. Jesate Ur-
lugston, Ollle Wood, Ora Cavana, The Two
Clippers, Gay Morning Glories. Fodr Meliler
singers, and tbe Oxford Quartette. Olrl ot My
Dreams, tbe pretty ballad. Is being atmg by so
many tbat to enumerate the name wonld b« a
dllBcult task. - All the above acts with but
few excepttons are singing tbe Dream number,
and more tbau a few are using the lett-OTcr
from the defunct catalogue of the Boose or
Chrlatopber. entitled Ob. You Tease.
"An arranger of music," said Johnny Mack,
tbe genial and hard-working pen pusher who
bas ofllcc room wltb Chas. K. Harris, "bas many
funny orders for work- I have made arranse-
meats for sll kinds of queer combinsttoos of
Instruments, bnt ths tunmesl miuest rame tb*

"In addition to these, a large number of otber
bands, which trarel under tbe name of aome
other city, really make Chicago their headquar-
tera and trarel from here. Among such are
Well'a St. Loula Band. Boleomb'a Pittsburg

,In addition to these, there are. In the city
about fifteen large organlzatlona known aa
parade bands. DeBaogb% Forrest'B, and the
First Beglment Band of Poilmao. are tboee bet-
ter known, although the first two named are
often consldeied as park bands, though they do
not trawl.
"The Nanasar Woman's Band, a Chicago en-
terprise. Is a combination of the musicians of
the two Taudevllle acts, tbe Navajo Girls and
tbe Vassar Girls. Riccl's Band, which played
at White City, and Lambtaae's Baud, hall from
the east, the latter from Philadelphia, bat tber
have made all arrangement to make Chicago
their home.
"The Poxsl and the Quaglla Bands were or-
ganized In this city, and are owned here, and
all tbe musldana live here. Next year will
also see tbe big Banda Bossa added to tbe list
of Cliicago bands. Tills band, tbe first of tbe
Italian banda to come to tills country, played
in America for tbe first time at tbe world's
Fair in 1893. It was afterward managed tar
a local music house, and toured from here. It
will travel from here next season.
"The biggest of tbe Chicago bands supply
music at seven Chicago parka, at Big Island
Park In Minneapolis, Electric Park at Oetrott,
the Zoo at Cincinnati, Forest Park Hlgblanda
at St. Lonia, Luna Park at Cleveland, Luna
Park at Pittsburg. Fairbanks Park at Indian-
apolis, and in many other of the larger citlea.
The smaller bands, which are large when com-
pared with these of other cities, are sent to,
parks In all the big and little cities In the cen-
tral states.
"While the majority of tbe hundreds of musi-
cians employed In these bsnds live In Chicago,
tbe city also supplies nearly ail tbe soloists snd
leading players for all big bands in America.
Bert Brown, the greatest comet solotet In Amer-
ica, I have been given to mderstand. now with
Pryor's Band, Uvea here, and has alt hia life.
Many «( Sonaa'a beat players are CMcagoana.
'Advantages of location, and the rlchnaaa of
tbe recmlting field, are what have made this
the band center. From Chicago, all other eltieu
can be easily reached, and, furthermore, tbe
leaders found tbat this city has more sololsta
to tbe block tban most cities have to tbe square
mile. Among tbe Italians here there Is bardly
a man that can't make mualc of some kind.
B^lrtbermore. tbe demand in tbe west is for big
bands. In the Eastern cities, most of the parka
use what are called ballylioo- bands, that to,
bands composed of a few mnslelans. .
"The rise of the band bnalnesa here also has
opened a new field for sound-lunged singers,
who are capable of warbling ootdooiB or lo large
pavilions. This soloist feature was introduced
by Thomas Preston Brooke, and, while In Chi-

Growth of Popular Music Publishing.
The growth atid development of popular music publishing In this
country. If treated chronologically and with the' necessary degree of senti-
ment, would read like a romance.
It remained for Americans to discover, or invent, a systematic means
of exploiting popular song successes. It Is logical (as it is strange that the
discovery has never been made before) that the vaudeville performer should
have been chosen as this agency of popularization;
In England they had long bad the music ball which, in its turn, was a
development from the Saturday evening singing sessions in the public hoiise;
but in EJngland the custom has been as it still is — ^for each singer to prac-
tically teach the words and air of each song to his audience. This, of course,
eliminates the possibility of wide circulation for published music.
This custom of inculcating- by Tepetition, dates back to the time when
the Tlsitois and patrons at the public house selected a chairman, whose duty
it was to teach the members the words and tunes of all the latest songs.
The English music hall never outgrew this, and the custom is as
boorsome to the visitor from foreign shores as it is discouraging to him who
contemplates the publication of popular music in England, as conducted
in the TJnited States.
Traditions in England are not easily overcome.
So it is that the publication of popular music in America, is unique in
Its methods, founded on the strongest foundation for success, and charac-
terized by principles of system and national predisposition that make for
its prosperity.
When we hark back to the tremendous vogue of XJttle Annie Rooney,
Mary Green, Comrades, Down On the Farm, After the Ball, and their Innum-
erable successors in public favor, and temporary popularity, we begin to
realize that those pioneers who were responsible for the exploitation of
these songs on the system that gave them popularity in all sections of the
country at the same time had discovered a medium well calculated to
supplant the old method of dissemination through numbers that were sung.
At the same time It gave rise to the music publishing business as It Is con-
ducted to-day. But for future generations in America, the phrase "the songs
that mother used to singr" will not have the meaning that it now has. for the
system Is different. There was a time when- songs spread like tnfectiion
through the army and the villages scattered throughout the land. They
■were taught and learned without the printed page. That Is not true of
the present system.
The increase In circulation and the possibilities of circulation of popular
music to-day is largely proportionate with the increased number of pianos
to the homes. The piano manvifacturer and the publisher of popular music
have worked hand In hand without even the semblance cf co-operation.
It Is true that the progressives In the piano manufacturing business have
appreciated this most potent factor In the demand for pianos, but the
greater majority of them have failed to do so. Still, we are satisfied that
the publication of popular music has created the increased demand for the
cheaper grade of pianos. On the other hand, the rule works inversely, and
the growing demand for pianos has fostered and nourished the interests
of the popular music publisher.
There was a time, and It was not long ago, that the music publishers
were almost overwhelmed with their own success. Song writers Invested
their royalties in plants for the publication of their own compositions and
those of other -writers who had not yet become their own i>ubllshers. The
earnings were so great and the system so primitive that many of them
were swamped in the high seas (no pun is intended) of their own pros-
perity. These fiascoes have been so recent that to specify them would be
considered (and would probably be really) an Injustice.
But out of this chaos grew system and order. The song -writers who had
temperament and little busines acumen returned to the writing of songs
and left the publishing of them to those of better business judgment.
To-day the publication and distribution of popular music is conducted
on the strictest business principles. It would entail many pages to describe
these methods. Suffice It to say that the business of music publishing never
was on so high a scale of commercial conduct, and never was the outlooic
for its future brighter than it is to-day.
Review of the Ohio Valley Exposition.
Being a municipal institution, an exposition Is seldom established with
even the ulterior purpose of profit as measured in the difference between Ita
receipts and expenses. So the fact that the Ohio Valley Exposition committee
will probably report a deficit of some J 13,000, the figures do not constitute an
actual loss. Furthermore, the amount will be made up by the guarantora
To all-intents and purposes the exposition has been a success, and has brought
a great many thousands of dollars to Cincinnati, which have been distributed
among the hotels, the caravansaries, the shops and other Institutions. Be-
sides, the exposition has ofEeVed amusement and edification to the people
of Cincinnati and all the contiguous territory. It Is impossible to reduce the
profits to dollars and cents, but they have been material and substantial.
The best of judgment -was shown in the execution of the plans for the
exposition, -with possibly the single exception of the opera. We believe, aa
we will explain further on In detail that its production was a mistake.
A great deal of credit for the success of this tremendous enterprise Is
due to Mr. Reynolds, Its president, and to Mr. Claude Hagen, : director of
construction and am-usements.
Why the Ohio Valley Exposition Repots a Deficit.
The Ohio Valley Exposition Is over. For nearly a month, ClnciDnatl
has been the terminus for numerous railroad excursions, and Its streets have
been crowded with visitors from cities, towns, villages, and hamlets -within
a radius of 400 miles, who have journeyed to the Queen City to attend the
greatest educational and industrial exposition held within the state In a
decade. Attendance exceeded the most sangui n e hopes of the promoters;
patronage at "the several sho-ws and concessions was greater than expected;
but. In the face of this, comes the announcement that a deficit of 113,000 or
more will be shown. Paid admissions amounted approximately to $112,500.
The sum of $125,000 was realized from the -various exhibits, making a total
incoina of $237,600. The expenses aggregated $250,000 — nearly $13,000 more
tban the receipts. Now the question arises: What was responsible for the
exorbitant expense? The answer is: The opera, Paoletta. It cost the expo-
sition $70,000 to produce this magnificent, though unprofitable! production.
The paid admissions to Paoletta were between $30,000 and $35,000 — a trifle
more than half the cost. Had not the opera been attempted, the exposition
would have shown a profit, as its drawing power was of little consequence.
While Cincinnaitl is considered a music-loving' city, the visitors to the expo-
sition from contiguous territory could not be accused of possessing the
esthetic tastes of their Queen City neighbors — ^In fact to all but a very -
small percentage of those who attended, the word "opera" Is a bugbear.
An exposition necessarily caters to the proletariat. The w^orklng man and the
farmer are the particular classes from which an exposition must draw its
patronage. Granting that the people in all -walks of life, from the millionaire
to the lowliest laborer, met In the spacious halls of the exposition buUdlnga,
and side by side viewed the various exhibits and attended the amusement
attractions, it goes without saying that the latter class represented 90 per
cent of the entire attendance. The otficials of the Ohio Valley Exposition
made a grievous error In producing the opera. Those who attended were
loud in voicing their appreciation, and it was the consensus of opinion
among public and press that never before had an American composer and
librettist attempted anything of the magnitude of Paoletta. But all these
lauding expressions added not a sou to the receipts. The grandeur of the
music and scenic Investiture -was enjoyed only by the few who understand
and appreciate opera, -while the biggest number of exposition visitors con-
tented themselves with a trip to the more popular attractions. It is obvious
that, had some lighter form of - musical or dramatic entertainment been
offered In place of the opera, the exposition would not now be reporting a
financial loss.
Who is Working for Who?
Broadway managers claim they are working for the actor. About time,
says the actor. Stand up. Mister Manager, and tell us what you know.
Clearing his throat, the magnate calls It various kinds of a cuss- word shame,
anathematizes the actor and sums It up by dilating on change of condltlona
that makes the thespian want more money — a ruinous salary.
In a way, the manager Is right. He puts up the production costs; ha
takes the risk of failure — ^sometimes gambling thousands to win or lose in a
single performance.
The actor grants this.
The manager outlays for scenery and props.
Actors grant this.
The manager advances salaries.
Actor grrants this.
If the show is a failure, the manager loses.
Actor grants this.
Manager claims he is the only one to lose.
And right now Mr. Actor clamors for the floor.
"The only one to lose? Bosh! How about us, with weeks of rehearmla
and money spent for wardrobe — don't we lose?"
You bet you do, Mr. Actor, . and the loss means more to you than to
the other fellows.
As the arrangement stands between actor and manager to-day, there
is but little equity. The manager wins, no matter who loses. In ten weeks
the profits from his show amount to thousands; in ten weeks the actor Is
seldom out of debt for money advanced, wardrobe and other expenses.
A forty- week tour of a successful show and the manager goes to Europe.
The actor usually goes in stock during the swelter period.
Managers ' claim that It costs more money to produce a show now
than before. The actor claims his hotel bills are higher than in the past.
The actor wants more money — so docs the advance agent, stage carpenter
and chorus girl. Everything, from scenery to newspaper adverttslng to
higher.
And. of the evils mentioned, the greatest of all la yet to be named-
competition.
ThLs is the rock that splits many an enterprise.
In the scramble to get something near like what the other fellow has,
playwrights are impressed into service to do- a play over night — companies
engaged and rehearsed in less time, and the public refuses to be bunked.
Time must come when showman and "actor realize that they are dealing In
a dollar commodity and must give a dollar value.
- Elements of chance are hazarded into every theatrical venture. Ne
radical effort can eliminate It. But the observance of certain rules, the
ordinary judgment that whets the business acumen can be fostered and. In a
measure, the angle of uncertainty planed smooth. '
In other words, the actor must submit to working for the managflr. and
vice versa. Both are the necessary ovUs of the profession

Managers should use more care In selecting the plays; the actor might
use somu Judgment In the signing of contracts with the shows that don't
look to stick. B.oth must play the game fair to each other.
Trouble with managers seems to be over-proSuctlvlty— -quantity means
quality — consequence, failures.
New York suffers to-day from having too few managers trying to do
too many things, and the flrst man to suiter la the man who makes a big
part of the show business possible — the actor.
With a little forethought, a certain reasonableness of success can be
outlined for a production, and *he actor works steady. But the proposition
of putting together a company, making the actor buy wardrobe, give up
other possible engagements. Is bad business.
It's not a question of who's working for who. buc a qu<;.->tion of both
working for the other fellow. fi F. W.
A Reply to a Critic.
Mr. X>ewis Uillhouse, dramatic editor of the Cincinnati Times-Star,
haa come to the defense of the Individual critic ' as against the editorial pub-
lished In The Billboard for September 24th. We print Mr. Hlllhouse's
reply herewith:
la a unique editorial devoted to dramatic crltlcUm, an amugement periodical wlilcb, of course,
expreiiBes solvly the tbeatrical view of tlie matter, arrlvea at this aatonlaliing conclusion:
Tbc dramatic reviewer ahould be ln»tmeted by Us eblet of ataS to extol or deprecate
tbe merits of. or abortcomlngs vf, a tbeatrical perfBrmance from the point of view maal-
featrd bj the audience In attendance.
TUm tbv ideal column of tbeatrical reviews, according to tbe opinion expressed by the journal
referred to, would be a column made up of a careful report of the., public attitude toward specific
producllona. In otber words, either turn tbe dramatic department u( Independent newspapers
bodily over to the Brst-nlght audiences, or else to the theatre managers themselves.
Were these opinions set forth In any other iierlodlcal than one printed exclusively In the In-
terests of the theatrical and amusement profession, or even bad the editorial not b.>en followed
wllb an article In which the loss in dollars and cents to theatres resulting from Individual crit-
icism was shown. It might be above the suspicion of being Inspired by partisan prejudice.
The amusement periodical cited has lost sight of one very Important tact, thJt is, a news-
paper's duty to lu readers. It also does not appear to admit that tbe attitude of an audience on
an opening nlgbt Is not always a representative attitude, and that a reviewer who Is guided
solely by It, may go as far astray Id correctly intimating tbe success of the play as it his own
Individual jodgmeDt were In error. Those who know anything atwut flrst-nlghts know that there
Is a very carefully and systematically-arraneed claque. The writer has s--en It in evidence a
hundred times. It Is not only the usher who manifests bis hired approval, but It is the pass-
hoiders, the friends of the theatre in general, the good-natured attaches of co-ordinate branches
of the amusement world, who always work together, and who lend a willing hand to the be-
ginning of applause. The effect of this is always to start the audience soins. and it happens
night after night that a scene or a song which would be passed In silence, or at least with a mild
expressioD of approval, receives a bombardment as a r-sult of the subtle suggestions from the
claque.. The evil Is far more prevalent than Is ordinarily supposed: therefore one can easily see
"'"•f?!* honest dramatic reviewer must not always take It for its face value.
rroperly to gam "the public attitude toward a specific production," It would almost be
necessary to hold a voting contest at the conclusion of the nlay, and then print the result of the
election. And even tben It might not be representative.
The editorial discredits the value of personal opinion as expressed In a criticism. But there
have been critics since literature began, and there will always be, good critics, poor critics, honest,
nut Incompetent, critics, disbonest, but powerful critics, pompons and pusUIanimotis critics. And
there are sincere critics who are fully conscious of the responsibUlty of faithfully depicting a
play, knowing tbat what they say may Induence thousands of people, and this kind of critic is
generally honest enough to reverse blmseit if he Amis be has done a play or a player an tnjnstlce.
But wnatever category the crtltc may belong In. the public Is sufficiently keen and discriminating

Of persons (an audience) must pay, befot« it may criUcise. Unless the critic Is admitted to have
a legitimate function, then this cooclnslon must be accepted. A play Is not like a suit of clothes
or Other niater'al thing that one may crltlchK before using. Unless the public may have crltl-
«rai In -advance It can not know what a show Is beforehand. That is to say. critics must
reprroent Oot present audiences, but ail audiences. There is no way out of It. TheretDie, the
JHtle has come to slay, w^kly ptdtllcations to the contrary notwithstanding. The only thing
to do Is to see that tbo papers, weekly and monthly, as well as daily, have competent critics.
This same thing appllrs to editorial writers on weeklies and monthlies, theatrical and otherwise.
Xow, Mr. Hillhouse charges, us with being partisan — with writing only in
the interest of the theatre. We make no denial of this charge. The Billboard
Is confessedly a Journal for the amusement people and, as individual crit-
icism is one of the elements most detrimental to the theatre. The Billboard
has seen fit to try to point out to its readers the evils of the present system
of newspaper criticism. Mr. HlUhouse speaks of the newspaper's duty to
its readers. That is exactly the theory upon which The Billboard is working.
He contends that the critic, as an institution, is as old as lierature itself;
Of Which fact we make no denial. There are other things older than indi-
vidual criticism that have Just as little excuse for existence. Mr. Hillhouse
admits that theye are poor critics, incompetent critics, dishonest critics, and
liuslllunimous critics, as well as good critics and honest critics.
This is all true enough, and we are perfectly willing to admit
that the critic is entitled to express his individual views when he Is Identfied
by having h!s name placed at the top of the column. But when his
views are given as those of the organ through which they are disseminated,
the public is being deceived. In other words, when a newspaper does not
place enough importance upon the work of Its dramatic critic to head his
column with his- name It Is unfair to the theatre-going public for that newspa-
per to allow thif- reporter to constitute himself a critic and write after the style
of those Journalists whose organs do consider their views of sufficient im-
portance to Identif.v their writings by printing their names. So it may be seen
we have something ourselves to say on the subject of a newspaper's duty
to its readers.
Mr. Hillhouse charges us with holding the New York critic in silent
awe. Nothing of the kind. The Billljoard's only object in placing the crit-
lotsnis of thr> New York reviewers besides that of Mr. Herman Thuman, in the
Cincinnati Enquirer, was to show that even on the basis of individual crit-
icism his adverse opinion of the merits of The City was in glaring contrast
to tho.se of the New York dramatic reviewers. A little further down, Mr.
Hillhouse maintains that a dramatic critic may be a "specialist," and there-
fore entitled to express his opinions of plays as any other "specialist" in any
other lino Is entitled to the expression of his views on that subject which hr
Hpcciullzr.s. A^ain we say quite true — whon the "specialist" is identified,
Piittlnrr llio cluiFKe of awe of the New York reviewer and of our failure to
recognize the dramatic critic's status as a "specialist" together: the dra-
matic reviewers Identified with the New York dallies are all chosen because
of their reputation.^ as "specialists." The same may be said of Chicago news-
paper dramatic critics. But in the other cities throughout the country,
Cincinnati being no exception, the dramatic critic "specialist" usually devote.-
six dnys a woi-k to miscellaneous reporting and the seventh, provided he
has no other engagement and does not send a substitute to fill his place,
metamorphoses himself Into a dramatic critic "specialist." The fact that
his own newspaper does not recognize him as a "specialist" is obvious from
the oiiil.'.-vi'n <M' his signature from his articles. To state the case plainly,
the drnmatlo criticism on the average big-clty daily outside of New York an i
Chicago, Is a sort of scrub Job given over to the general utility reporter in
ordor to give htm something to do to fill In his time.
Mr. Hlllhouse's column is always signed. Yet, though this exempts him
from the category of those referred to in the above para.itr.nph.5. no ono wli.
knows the facts will deny that there was a time not long ago when
Mr, Hillhouse would not have been classified among the good or honest
critics to whom ho refers. At that time liis reviews were manifestly anc:
obviously inspired by malice. We reprint herewith an editorial which
appeared in The Billboard bearing date of October 17, 1908:
A CISCINNATI COMEPy.
Resorting to haniics quite Quixotic, and viciously fanning the air. a Cincinnati dally has set
the town a-smllu. The theatrical situation really needed something of the serio-comic, and the
Innovation Is timely.
To partlcul.irl7e: The paper In question has for many seasons fattened upon the patronage
of local managers. Pr08|>crlty has Induced pride, which, as ever, brings about destruction. It re-
cently cimcludfd that Its columns were so valuable that theatrical advertising should be rated at
an amount gr.satiy In excess of former prices. The raise was made, managers protested, tho
vender of news was oixlurate. thereupon all managers withdrew patronage. Now we enter tl»
vale of smiles. Millions of money and wide inflneuco are represented in the local tbeatrical field.
Kar be It from us to Impute malice to the sheet In question. But punishment must be Indicted.
How? "Lrct us strike the local playhouses over the shoulders of the Eastern producing managers,"
said the paper. So for many weary days Its columns have been filled to groaning with condemna-
tion of many puys appearing in Cincinnati. Few have heed spared. .Theatrical gore .covers the
tteld, and the avenger is happy. Happy, did we sayj SlOt For. since the comical, one-sided
combat began, business baa been better for all managers, a direct result of this piece of Ill-
considered Journalistic er.terprlae. Why pay for advertising when It can be bad without the ask-
ing?
. So we see that though Mr. Hillhouse may object to our Contention that tho
dramatic reviewer who is not a "specialist" six days out of the week, should
take his instructions from his chief of staff and write his reviews from the
viewpoint of the audience, Mr. Hillhouse himself, who may be classiflecl
among the "specialists," if for no other reason than because his name is
signed to his "stuff," did not, during part of the winter of 1908 and 09.
refuse to take his instructions with regard to the character of his dramatic
critieiEms from the business office, which is worse. In fact,
his reviews during several months of this period were so vitriolic that
the Cincinnati theatre managers found it necessary to publish the following
legend in all their other newspaper advertisements and In their programs:
"We do not advertise in the Times-Star." This line was also projected froin
the cinematograph on the curtain of every theatre In Cincinnati before each
performance. The managers believed that this line was sufficient to Msure
their audiences and the readers of their advertisements that the Times-
Star criticisms were Inspired by dudgeon and written in spleen.
We do not believe that our readers, whether engaged in the amusement
biislness or not, will find reason to controvert the- contention that the best
way for a newspaper to conserve the interests of its readers is to print crit-
icism, either signed, to denote that It is the work of their chosen "spetdalist.
or to print it in the form of a report ot the audience's attitude toward the
performance, and, being unsigned, postulated as the work of a reporter.
The Resuscitation of Melodrama.
The pessimist has been downed again. For the past two or three years
he has been saying that melodrama was permanently dead. The success of
the melodramatic attractions, so far this season, proves that he reckoned
without his host. Melodrama has not reached the stage of prosperity that
characterized it three or four years ago: It may be three or four yeara more to
getting back to that state. Even if it never does get back at all. and at
the same time never retrogades, it is assured of a long and vigorous life.
The decline of the public interest in melodrama, has been universally
attributed to the growing Interest in the motion picture shows. Inveraely.
then, with the revival of interest In the melodrama, that in moUon P'cturw
would deteriorate; but such is not the case, as we will have occasion to
demonstrate further on. We are now speaking of melodrama.
A couple of years ago, much was written on the subject of the deatb of
melodrama: newspaper reporters filled in their idle moments and many empty
columns with every character of composition, from the serious to the sar-
castic on the subject. Some averred that the washerwoman had transferred
her affections from the melodrama to the moUon picture show Others de-
clared that the cost of living had increased to such an extent that the Itntury
"ot the vellow-melo play was not further to be indulged in by the ^working,
unthinking classes. All agreed, however, that the melodrama was dead.
Its manifestation of liveliness this season goes another step towards
proving the fallacy of finite Judg ment.

In all the world of nomads, in all the realm of laughed-at professions,

and more so than most professions — the most ridiculed, and yet, one of the
bet paying. Ordinarily it is the Italian who grinds the organ, the blue blood
of American shoe clerks and counter jumpers being too aristocratic to follow
the hurdy — ^and the latter's income is but a tithe of the former. It isn t a
mercenary motive solely that prompts the organ grinder: his inherent love for
music has much to do with determining a career. It Isn't becatise he can't
do anything, but because, he can do this well, and travel the country and
live outdoors In sunshine and nalture. and get mighty well paid.

to enlighten yon as to who I am. Hoping yon

EUROP EAN M EETING
Of Cinematograph Producers Occasion for the Dis-
cussion of Many Topics of Interest— American
Film and Motion Picture News of the Week
Alufiy Interesting mattere rolatlDff to clne-
fliatogTatih prodactioas bare been dlscassed at a
CODgrefiS lately setting In Brussels. ICepresent-
atlres from all parts of the world were present.
One of the chief papers was that read by Mr.
Leon Ganmoat. president of the Ganmont Ck>ni-
pany. In tills he explained the problem of the
slmnitaneous production of gesture and sound.
For some years be lias been experlmentlog on
an important new process in tiiis connection, the
lesolt of wblclt would sliortly be brooght 'ont
in London. Tbe old system of recording actions
and words simultaneously reanlred, first of all
tlie taicinff of a gramophone record. Then an
artist or singer bad to become conTersant with
tbe record and rehearse the scenes, after which
tbe aim was taken. Considerable resiwnsIblUty
rested on the performer for the proper repro-
duction of the actions and words at the right
moment.
In the new process tbe artist simply steps
upon the stage, and by a special apparatus,
actions and sound are recorded at the same time
and in the same way. The great possibilities
of tbis system hardly need going into.
Tlie most important event in tbe film world
for some time here iias been the announcement
tliat Terry's Theatre, in the Strand, has been
leased by Edward Ten^ to a cinematograph
company for twenty-one years, and will be op-
ened as soon as the run of Tbe RejuTenation of
Aunt Mary is finished, as a moving picture the-
atre. The name of It will lie altered to tbe
Grand Casino, and there will be a continual
*bov dally from 2 P. M. to 11 P. U.. Prices
will range from two stillUngs to sixpence.
There are now about two hundred cinemato-
graph theatres in Iiondon, making from five to
one hundred pounds profit weekly, and tbeir
nmnber la Increasing Jnst as fast as they can
be bnat. At one of these theatres In Oxford
street, recently, plctores were taken of the
Sncfaess of Portland driving up to formally
open the place. Seventeen minutes later fully

FAIR INTELLIGENCE
The Wisconsin State Fair Has Auspicious Season.
Thieves Steal $2,000 at County Fair.
Carnival News
UUwaa&ee. Wl«.. Sept. 17.— With Ideal
weather conditions. Septemljer 12-16, the Wis-
coiulQ State Fair of 1910 was a prononnce^
success, aod» In fact, the most saccessfol fair
erer held In this state. There were a ^eat
nnmber of shows and concessions than In anj
previous year. The Parker Shows, indndln^
the Trained Wild Animal Show, Whitney's Lot-
ta Show, the Japanese Village, and a number
of other large feature shows and merltorloas
attractions did good business and pleased wen.
Artbar Hoiey. the ariator. with ihe Wright
aeroplane, made a namber of snecessfnl flights,
azitil Friday, the leth, the last day, when his
machine was canght by a gnst of wind and
crashed Into the grand stand, Injnrfng eight
persons. The fall of the machine also nearly
caused a panic, but the crowd was soon under
control, by the timely arrival of the fair at-
taches.
The same day Miss Vera Matthews, of Fond
da 'Lae, one of the lady xldeis In the races,
was thrown from her hone dnilDX a race and
sustained internal is]nties. -
The live stock exhibits were ▼err large and
occupied capacity space. The exhibits of ag-
ricQltnral Implements were so latse and so many
that It was necessary to erect extra tents for
the overflow.
The ^Carassar Lady Band and a nnmber of
bands ataoat the state In nearby cities, for-
nlsbed an abundance of mnsie.
FalB'a I«st Days of Pompeii was tlie evening
attraction, inside of the track In front of the
grand stand, while tlie Taaderllle contingent
giving the day performances was composed of
The Curzfm Sisters, aerial novelty act; Bedlnl
Family, German eqnestrlans; ErgotU's LUIIpn-
tlanx; Clmljottl's Arabian StalUona, and the
chariot races.
Several of the exhibitors of agricnitnral im-
plements also bad moving picture shows on the
grounds, to demonstrate their particiilar lines.
The races every day were a big featnre and
big crowds could lie seen dally about the trade
and grand stand, which waa tested to Its ca-
pacity.
Thursday, Sept. 15, was the banner day for
attendance, it being Milwaukee Day, and
business having been snspended for a half day
In that city, the attendance ran up to 54,077
people.
The officers were well : satisfied with tills
year's fair, and already are planning a nam-
ber of improvements for the Wisconsin State
Fair of 19II, In order that It will be a greater
success than any preceding fair in this state.

CONE Y CL OSED.
New Toft, Sept, 24 (Special to The BIU-
boaid).-^N«thlns remains ot the Coney Island
season except what the street sweepera are
bauling away from Surf avenue— -ttae btg parks
have shnt their gates — the concessionaires have
folded tents and slunk away — the managers are
counting prodtB, or other things, and Mardi
Gras is a thing of memory.
There are other things, too, that IIq:;er in
memory — the notorious misconduct of many who
strive to squeeze a fortune through pollnted
channels — there are thugs in iall — there are po-
licemen, high and low, awaiting trial for per>
mittlng graft and crime a tree rein. And there
are others who have suffered from the lack ot
things. 1910 is dead — let its memories revive
liefore 1911 comes around — when the snows
cover Coney, let its footprints be seen as a
warning. Make a general clean-up gentle-
men — deodorize the Bonrery. fill the parks with
new novelties, and the summer to come will
mean bank accounts for every one.
OPEN ON SUNDAY.
Palisades, N. J., Sept. 24. — Palisades Amnse-
ment Park, here, has closed during the week
days, but opens Sundays and captures large
crowda who mostly patronize the dancing pa-
vilion. The Public Service Railway of New
Jersey, has purchased the park and has been
lighting bard to wittidsaw the Injunction that
haa been tacked upon It forbidding the man-
ager to operate the noisy devices after 10:30
P. M., week days, and 8 P. M., Sundays.
Owing to the restricted nelehborhood. It la
likely that ooless the Injunction Is withdrawn
before next year the park win loose consider-
able of the concessions, as there Is no bathing
at this psrk. .

Auotiuff metiiOfi employed — a uecessarlly
limltt£ii oaf. — i* tbat of "ft^fdlna" the moslc
- tesciieni. 'i'tw; latter are Mtnt free copJeii aod it
hi boped tbat ttiey will teacb tbe bod^ u> tUe
pupils nnd tfiat the latter will buy copieii.
Sivt these Una*, after all, depeofl moat on
tbe flbfiity of their traTtflers to sell tbelr music,
or rather to place Jt with the dealers, and on
the whole tbey are fortunate in the men who
xepre«4*nt th^m. Yet here Ifaejr are up against
s terrible obstacle, and one that affectts both
ildes of the houk business, la the terrible apathy
of tlie dealers.
Almost Inrariablr In Eusland the mneic seller
Is one who primarny exists for the sale of
planOH ami other moalcal fniitrumenta and who
tells music purely as a aide line — oae that helps
blm to make his shop window look a trifle more
lot*-retjtIoi$. Of puiiblng^ bU music be baa , no
idea. Ills stock Is of the' most limited order
and if you sltould happen to ask him for a num-
ber which he has not got in stock it frequently
takes him a week to procure it. Ja»t as an in-
stance Mr. Charles Warren, the EogUsh man-
ager of Witmark & Co., t<rfd me recently that
at a very basy and demsely popolated town, tlie
weU-knowjQ artiste. Hayden Col&n, was slu^lng^
a Tery popular ballad called Starlight. Thlnk-
log^ tbat here was a ciiaoce for the mneic
dealers of the place to do business, Mr. Warren
sent each of ttiem a supply of copies of the
BODf with title pages to display in tbe windows.
Do you tbink they did? Not a bit of It! All
of them had arzvngt^ their windowis months
iwfwe and they were not going to undo all their
work la order to sell a few copies of a popular
■oni^. **If peuple want it," tbey said, "let
tbeiD come and ask for It."
So far aH I know tbere are not more than half
a doxen lire music sellers In the whole of Lon-
don, and probably no more In the rest of Great
Britain. Popular songs here are s<^d In spite of ,
and not because of, tlie dealers.
0p to just lately Uiere was another way, and
a very faT(»-lte one, too, of pnttlng a soug on
the market; It was by iiavlng it sang in musical
comedy. But this way, however, la practically
dead. At tbe present time it is the custom of
the composer of a. musical comedy to con-
tract with the producer tliat only Ids moslc
aball be used la the piece. This, of coorae,
completely abots oat the Interpolated fKmg; so
this metlftod is now a thins of the past.
One cariona fact in connection with moslc
exploitation In England la the change now com-
ing over the reapectlTe positions of singer.
author, cermpoeer and pabllsher. In the days
gone by tbe singer was supreme. Upon bim it
was felt, rested the whole fate of the song.
It was worth while to pay him heavily * for
slnsing^ it and it was only Jnst to give liim a
royalty on tbe c<9lea eold.
Tills system of paying the singer still snr-
Tives among the older generation of ballad
piAtllsbers. Bat on tbe moslc hall side It Is
^lag oot ccKnpletely. The aothor and the com-
poser are pnablng themselves to the front. They
emialder ttaemselves of equal importance — ^If no
more — to tbe singer. Tbey feel that if they bad
not made tbe song tbe alnger could never have
anog It. In their opinion they are entitled to
an eanal dlTialon, at the least, of the spoils.
Conseqoently an aatbors and composers* onion
la now In being. lU objects are to pnt an
end to the practice of paying a singer to slog
a Kong and at the same time increase the
royalties paid to themselves. "Why should we
pay a suiger for giving him tbe chance of
making bis living, and perhaps, at tbe same
time of making his reputation,'* Is tbe conten-
tion of the union. There Is certainly a good
deal of force In this argoment and it Is rapidly
gaining ground, but at the same time the old
convention of giving a singer a royalty on- the
pnblishing rights— especially in regard to bal-
lads — seems almost anaBsaUable. The general
practice in regard to tbe Tevenoe obtained from
a song is that the pobllsber takes half and the
author, singer and composer split up the rest
between them— that Is if they have not disposed
of their rights for a inmp sum.
But, altboogh tbe position of tbe author and
composer of a song Is not all honey even these
days, yet it Is far better than what . it used
to tie. At one time tbe iilgbest price paid for
a stmg was ten shillings. Charles Sloman, a
prolific song composer of the mId-VIctorian era.
stated that his price for songs was ten shill-
ings, wblle he was prepared to supply poems at
the rate of 5 stilUings for twenty lines and
three pence per line after. Nowadays a good
stmg writer receives from one to ten pounds for
tbe singing rights alone of his work, "^ille tbe
royalties on the publishing, when be does not
sell the song to the publishers outright, may
reach a very big amount.
Tbe big music ball song publishers here, like
Francis, Day' and Hunter, or WItmark's or
Sheard's. each turn out several hundred popular
songs a year. To get their money back and tnm
In a slight profit they have to sell about 50.-
000 copies, the standard price being one shilling
and sixpence (3G cents). Of course, every now
and then they publish a song which sells like
hot caki's and can ^ot be printed quickly enough.
For Instance. Day & Hunter sold several mil-
lion copies of The Soldier of the Queen: almost
aa many were sold of 1 Wouldn't Leave My Lit-
tle Wooden Hot for Von. Love Me and the
World Is 311ne, published by Wltmark. sold to
the tune of nearly a million cOples, imd other
songs of theira, like George Lashwood'a Just a
Girl, Will You Love Me In December as You
Did in May? and Idol of My Dreams, were also
sold by the hundred thousand.
One great feature of the business at the mo-
ment Is that the publishers no longer have to
fight the "pirates." For a time the depreda-
tions of the latter gentlemea almost mined the
publishing business. Disregarding all questions
of copyright, they sold in the streets for a
penny, on inferior paper and with Inaccurate
printing, of course, songs who.se standard price
was eighteen pence. During several years, dur-
ing which publishers, writers and composers
were nearly drlren to distraction, the pirates
went their own sweet way. New legislation,
however, and a rigid enforcement of the old
law has now practically suppresse«l them and
publishers are once more at peace. It Is in-
teresting to note that it was during this cri-
sis that Francis, Day & Hunter Introduced the
experiment of Issuing songs* at sixpence a copy,
and. altbongfa tbp other publishers looked In
askance, tbe experiment was a success and has
been continued ever since. But the severity of
tile piracy onslaught can be imagined by the
fact tbat over one song alone. Lore aie and the
World is Mine, it vas estimated that $10,000
was lost In one year through the operatltms of
these genfij.
At this time of year preparattons are already
commencing for the pantomimes and the songs
which are going r*» Iw the sacctjsses In the lat-
ter are already pushing themselves to the front.
This year. It Is already apparent what songs
win be the favorites lu pantomime time. The
chief of them are: Flanagan, suzig by Florrie
Forde; Herman Darewslcl's On the SBvery Sands,
sung by Madge Temple; There's a Little Black
Cupid in the Moon; For Nights and Nights and
Nights, In Cherry Blos-s^n Time in Japan, My
Southern Eose. Miss O'Hara. If I bad the World
to Give You. Sam. I'm Shy. Mary Ellen; HI, Hi,
Mr. McKay; Tiger Lily, A Good World After
All and The Two Bobs.
These are enough to go on with, but some of
last year's favorites like Let's All Go Down
the Strand and I want You to be My Girl, are
sure not to be left oot in the cold. Ylp-i-addy
is another little ditty aure to be prominent ev-

kind. Tile chairman would call up on any
known frequenter for a song and the original
custom was that any man not singing bad to
supply the rest with drinks.
Bat after a time It became the practice to
engage a professional chairman; and if it hap-
pened tiiat the" honse numbered am<Higst Its fre-
quenter several with really excellent voices and
talent, then these were exclusively engaged to
sing at that establlstmient. And so gradually
professionalism came into vogue-
Tfae Chief song and supper rooma of the time
were the Cyder Cellars in Maiden Lane, the Coal
Sole In the Strand, OHIey's in Henrietta street,
the Dr. Johnson In BoH Court, and Bvan«% after-
ward Paddy Green's,- In Covent Garden, where
the National Sporting Club now has its bead-
quarters. There are atlll many Londoners alive
who remember the Isttar place well, it was
opened close on midnight and tbe entertainment
consisted of love ballads and drlnldug sougs. It
bad a. 'couple of singers attaclied to It and liie
rest of the entertainment was v<Au»taxily sup-
plied by tbe patrons.
In the place was placed nnder new man-
sK^nient and tbe bnlldlng ' was zecMMlstmcted
and improved. Tbe new hall was over seventy-
two feet long and magnificently decorated, toe
decorations costing' over twenty-five thooMnd
dollars. A striking Innovatlfm was ttie intro-
duction of a regular raised platform for
singers. Ladles were not admlttted to the hall
except on giving names and addresses and
tiien were only permitted to view the proceed-
ings from b^iind the rails of a blgb balcony.
The whole of the program was contrUmted by
men and there was a very efficient choir of
boys in tbe bargain. Proceedings stapted at
eight, but it was ^>out mldnlgbt before tSiS
room began to fill. By tliat time eferj table
was crowded and there were to be seen the
leading llghlB In the literary, artistic, theat-
rical, I^al and social circles of the day, dis-
cussing tbe performance over their chops and
atout.
Tbe great sing^ at Evans* was Jack Stiarp.
In these days he would be earning about a
thousand dollars « week, but at that time his
salary was five dollars a weeic, with supper
and a certain number of free drinks thrown In.
And yet, many of tbe best Judges bave declared
that Jack Sharp was the moat talented variety
perfOTmer ever seen in Bngland. In his method
he was sometliing like Arthur Roberts, tMit tiad
an ever keener and readier wit. In his time
he was the rage of the town ahd in con-
stant demand at Vauxball and Cremome Plea-
sure Gardens 'and all the piAllc dlzmers of Uia
time. When be had finished his Bfmgs be used
to take copies round to those present and try
and dispose of them. When things were good
he was known to make as muc<h as fifty dol-
lars a week by these sales. Unfortunately,
the poor devil took to drink and dl^d in the
wort^OQse at the . age of thir^-elght. Space
will not permit me descilbing other famous
singers of tbe time, like Charles ^oman, Sam
Cowell and Herr von Joel, who used to aug-
ment his : salary by selling tickets for his
"benefits," which were always l>elng postponed
and In the end were forgotten.
The Coal Hole was the other great su{^r
room. Copying the methods of Svans, the ih-o-
prletor soon bad the place the resort of "the

were introduced lu the shape of dancing and

But sttotlier Important factor In the making
of tbe music ball was tflie variety saloon «nd
concert room. It occupied a sort of a mld-
poaltion between tbe concert room and the
theatre. It received a license from tbe magla-
traites and, -altbougti forbidden ta produce
Shakespearean dnunaa. It bad carte' blancbe
to give any other form of cutertalnmeot it
(leased. The program nmslte conaiated ot •
medley of iwera. drama and farce; In addltloa
to a mlaeeUaneons concert of voealism. music
and dancing, wblcli wound Bp the evening. One
cf tbe most popular was tbe Eagle, wblcb stood
In the City Road. In many remeots it re-
sembled a theatre, bavlng a regular atage, «
tier of boxes and an organ A>r an orcbestra,
concealed during perfotmances by a clOtb.
When ballets came into vogue «t this place,
bowever, tbe organ was removed and an or-
obestra aubstitnted.
Barry Howell, Joe Csve snd Bobert Gllndoo
— e the * - .. .
star artists of tbe place. One aong of
tbe tatter's, .csUed Tbe Literary Dustman, en-
Joyed a ramarkable repotatlon. It was at Us
piece. Incidentally, that Sim Beeves started on
the way to fame. But aalarles were not Isrge.
Sixteen stallUngs a week for plsylng l^iree dU-
ferent roles a week, was the pay received by
Plexmote, one ot tbe cleverest artlata of >tbe
day.
Iliere were many ot these saloons and nearly
every one bad some fascinating history attaobed
to it wblcb time wUl iwt allow of my going
into. Tor instance, tSiere was tbe Apollo, In
aiarylebone Boad and Bower, in Soatbwark.
where celebrities like James Femandes and
Fred Bobsoa made tbeir start, the Albert, la
Bhetihenless Walk, and the £ffingham, in Wblte-
cbapel Road, were all places of name and fame.
But the tnrntnc iwlnt In the blitory of tta«
saloons csme when, sfter the passing of tbe
nieatTes BeKisti7 Act te IMS. the saloon* were
given tbe choice of beconlng eitber legttlmMte
tbestres wltb dramaUe entertdnineDts ' bat
witbout a liquor license to tbe •sudltorinm or
regular music hall with drinking llcenae but
minus the right of producing wtut tbe set
esUed "stage idays." Most ot tbe saloons at
once 4nmed themselves Into variety balls, but
aeveral, like tbe Eagle and tbe Union — ever
since known as the Brltaimla, Hoxton— became
legitimate theatres.
I bavo dealt with tbe supper snd song rooms
and tbe saloons In connection with tbe develm-
mcnt of tbe music ball. <Now let ds come to
perhaps tbe most important factor of all — tbe
tsvern coacert room. This was a development
of the caiHial musical assumblles— free and easy
as they were known, wblch any tavern pro^-
etor wbo could command a pianist and a little
local talent could give in bis own bar parlor.
The best-known of these, were Bongerford
Hall, near Oharing CroKj; tbe old Mogul In
Drury Lane, wblcb afterward became tbe Mld-
dlwei ,MU8lc Hall— altboogh always known as
^™*.M?". snd. Is now being pulled down for
i- ."ll"!'*,' building; the King's Head.
Knightsbridge; the King snd Queen, Paddlngton
S^"' 'S**^"^ Xormandy,. ^aiyleSone
»oad. and itte Salmon and Compass, Penton-
vuie — su good, bonest names, as you will note.
•nie majority of these rooms were open only
tbree nights a week and never. In any clroim-
stancea, did an artist appear more than three
evenings s week at tbe same establishment.
The usual pay was sbout two shillings a night
anft a few drinks. The only -exception was at
the drapes, in Soothwark, wbera tlie proprietor
paid ss much as thirty shillings a week foe a
good turn.
But the first place to give anything like a
variety entertainment as we tOiderstand W
was the' Rotunds. In Blacfcfrlars Road. Here,
as far back aa 1820. variety was In full swing,
snu In ithls re«n>ect the proprietors were just
Ofteen years ahead of tbeir contemporaries.
Tho . Rotunda bad a vigorous existence and
nourtataed up to about 1885 under tbe name of
the BUon, but Chen a little trouble with the
PMlce In the matter of an unautburliril cock
flgbt. led to Ita being shut up.
To the Surrey, however, formerly known as
the Orapes. belonga tbe cretlit of having l>een
the first to style itself n music ball. Ibis
was In 184S, and -the ball ^vas « prettily deco-
rated one capable of aeatlog about a thousand
persons. Tbe company here cost as much ss
tbinty pounds a week and represented tb«
cream of tbe variety world. Soon after the
Great Uogul developed Into <tbe Middlesex
Music Hall, anil tbe 'Wtaite Uon Tavern, In
GdKwam Road became the iUetropOlltan Musle
Hall. stIU aurvlvlDg aa one ot tbo piemler balls
of Xtondon.
But it was iH)t until ChnrloR Morton
came on Uie iccno that Urn music ball began
to attract the alttcntlon ot tbo remitablo public.
Morton atarted life by koeplng what tbe pplico
call a licensed bouse—In other wonls. a saloon-
keeper. Kveutually be took a house called
tbo Canterbury Arms, alt which tbe barmonia
meetlnga wer<> a great featnre. Morton waa
DOS of the shrewdest men that ever llvod--tbe
only failure ho ever made waa when he lost
£8.000 in America when touring tbe Soldeno
Omera BoufTo Company in 1874, and oven then
ho dcciated that the fun bo had was worth tbo
money. Ho knew tbe mcthoils of Rvans' snd
every other form ot entertainment in Ibo town,
and bo bad siaed up tbeir good points and
their bad ones. At tbe back of ttie Canterbury
Arms he bad a large room Where ell the pros-
perous tradesmen of the district used to meet
aud mnoke tbeir cborcbwardeas. The **har-
tnuQles'* were always a great feature here, and
Morton made them more so by Introducing one
or two first-class professionals. The entertain-
ments were given on Thursdays and Saturdays,
aud tbe place was packed to suffocatSou.
So great did the success become that Morton
took a step forward. He bnllt tbe Canterbury
Hall, which held 70U people, and gave an enter-
tainment similar to that in vogue at Evans',
and made a small charge for admission. There
was no stage, only a large- platform. Morton
t^ared no expemie to get tbe best artlats, and
be paid as much as £30 a week to the tip-top
ones— an unheard of sum In those daws. Tbe
performsnco waa not aimply of the light order;
classical mnaic waa one of tbe greatest features,
la fact, OSenbaoh's open mnnc was first pop-
ularized In England SC the Canterbury. All
the best things ot the Continent and of England
came there and no pains were begmdged to
have everything done In tbe best possible
style.
Tbe entertainment at the Canterbury became
tbe best In London. Tbe I'rlnce of Wales came
there to see the ballet. Tbe shopkeeper, the
mechanic and tbe clerk took their families
there ss a matter of course. The music ball
proper hsd at Isst come into ' being ss not
merely a free and easy, -happy-go-lucky affair,
held in a tavern or a saloon; It was a llist-rate
place of entertainment, ranking on an equality
with the theatre as the resort of any one for
leal bigb-class amusement.
Wltbln two years the new ball had to be de-
molished, and one holding more than twice as
many pei^le was erected.
Development of the music hall for the ensuing
forty or fifty years Is laisely bound up with the
career of Cbarlee -Morton. 1 hope on a sub-
sequent occasion to deal with this period also.
But I have now made clear bow tbe music ball
came into being, and bow tbe little friendly
seml-publlc musical assi-mbly emerged into tbe
great commercial enterprises, representing en-
ocmooa snms in capital, of to-day.
Pctbapa there Is Just one other point I
engbt to deal with. It Is witb that popolar In-
stitution of former days known as tbe Chair-
man. Originally a poet held by tbe landlord
himself, it later became a distinct occupation.
In fact, £ngland seemed to 3iavo a particular
breed of men In those days whose fonctlon In
life was to become music-ball chairmen. Tbey
were all tall men, otportly build and dlatin-
gnlataed apjjearance. Tber all aeemed to have
large, round, tesmant voleea. With beaming
amUe and hnmacoMe Alrt fronts, they took
tlielr -place at the center of a table in front
of the stage. On eitber side of tliem eat
tbeir friends, and it was reckoned a great dis-
tinction to occupy these seats. The young man
who rose to this eminence thoogbt himself a
blood Indeed.
The Obalrman tntrodnced tbe song and tbe
singer. He kept order, "with bis ^ammer In
bis 'and," as the sons osed to say, with great
•temness. His authority was never questioned;
in fact, be vied with the speaker of the House
of Commons in this respect. Bat all through
be kept the proceedings alive and added a per-
s<Hial note, wblch is sadly lacking In the Im-
personal entettaltraient of the present time.
Itblnk we all feel at times «»at It would add
to the "go" of an entertainment if there were,
as In the olden thnes. some one to act aa a kind
ot Inteimediary between performer and atidl-
ence — some one. as it were, to make a friendly
introduction. But ixt their great and auperlor
wisdom, vwlety ^omoters bave atmllshed all
vividly remenAer going down to the East
™d about ten years ago to see the chair
taken for tbe laat time at a little music hall
abotit to be demolished. The chairman, the
last of bis race, was tbe one who liad intro-
duced — at that very ball — the great Dan Leno
to the public with the words, ••Ladles and
gentlemen. 1 ptesent to yoor kind Indulgence
a very young panfOnner, who will endeavor to
amuse you with a song and dance." When
that performance was over, and be had occu-
pied the pliair of ofllce for the last time, tbe
oM chairman, wbo bad sat there for fifty years,
told me that It vras the saddest moment of his
lite.

Perltaps there will be a better all-star Chicago
TandevIIle bill than this at some future date,
bat it Is doobtful. Opening with an act of
the caliber of tbe Exposition Four, just about
explains how good this bill really Is. It would
be a rather lively one with which to open bat
there Isn't a qaiet act in Che Hst, even Charm-
ion, who presents ber aerial act, twing a ver-
itable chatterbox.
Oesirite the fact that nearly every act would
rival <me another to scene degree toe the head-
line bonors, ithere seems but little doubt that
the novelty, reputation, and artistic features
of Julian 'Eltinge's feminine characterizations
places him In bolder type fiian any of the rest,
when It comes to the consideration of drawing
powa. He also would get the best spot on
tbe bUl, the last full-stage position before
closing. And who coold fit better In between
Julian EltluEe and the closing act, A Night In
a' Monkey Music Hall, than JoUos Tannen, the
ever popular favorite, who makes us laugb
two or ithree thnes a year by doing nothing but
coming out and talking in the most natnral
corbstone fasUon.
Cbaries Czspewln and Company, in Uielr
tlme^4mi but not poptdarlty-wom comedy
sketdi. The Awakening of Mr. PIpp, and Char-
lotte Parry and Company in iher protean dra-
matic sket(A, entitled the Com stock Mystery,
would bmnoronsly and artistically eurronnd
Jnlian Bose, who gracefully acknowledges ihim-
seM as being the only Hebrew comedian that
ever appeared before the present king and
qaeen at England by royal command. Charmion.
altlmngb not strictly Iil vandeviUe, is such a
strong variety feature in the (Silcago burlesaae
at the Star and Garter that it practically be-
came impossible to exclude her from snch a
list of all stars as this. Edward Blondell and
Company, still presenting The Last Boy, and
Wldtehead and Grlerson, wUh lines and songs
unchanged, need no descriptive reasoning why
they sboold appear second -and third, remect-
^ lirlj3«test of CMcago
vaudeville.
. 2L', "^""se. it is understood that In a strictly
fasbipnable theatre that some of the bluer gara
of Julian Hose's monologne and the coinedy

sold to assist in satisfying a claim of $65, of
some years standing. Schilling knew VfoUnsky.

some talent. Sebtlilng befriended Ginsberg and
advanced money, which has never been cetomd.

With the opening this week of the Orphemn,
GinclDQatl's hill-top temple of Morris -vaudeville,
the last of Cincinnati's show houses to open Its

MANCHESTER, ENGLAND.
Slanchester, Eng*. Sept. 14, 1910.
My Dear Billyboy — This is an exceptionally
good week at the theatres of Manchester, tm
the offerings at all places of amusement are
away ahead of the usual. - In fact, there la
nothing bad at any house, either of the. lilgher
or lower grade, or at the VandevUle booses. As
a rule, ' Manchester shows such little apiirecla-
tlon of ' good things theatrical that managers
are loth to bring their best here till after It
has run Its pace almost everywhere else. Occa-
sionally productions are made here, hut that
Is only .when Londo'n can not atford the open-
ing because of reigning successes, and It Is
absolutely necessary to make the production to
keep contract with the author. This waa the
case with The Dollar Princess, for which an
opening could not be made In Iiondon, and yet
wltlch George Edwardes would have lost en-
tirely If he had not produced It before January
1, 1909. It is true that we have a producing
honse here, and tbls week It Is doing a play
by a local newspaper man, called Gentlemen
of the Press, and It has much merit but
will stand for a lot of .rewriting before it -will
please any audience except Out of Hamduster's
Gaiety Theatre. . My own belief Is that the
piece vrill eventually be fixed np and prove a
'winner, for it certainly has mnch merit.
Dame Nature, with Ethel Irving, Is at the
Royal, and doing almost a pantomime busi-
ness. The play pleases and could easily do two
weeks here, but the time can ' not be spared.
Kext week the comic opera. The Mountaineers,
wUI be seen here with a traveling company. For
the week of the- 26th lewis Waller is to pre-
sent his new play of romance, Bardleys the
Magnificent, and as Waller Is about the best
romantic actor that 'England possesses, bis en-
gagement will be a smaAing one. This will
hti hia flrst visit to Manchester in several
years/f and It Is mostly because of bis ab-
sence fiiat-he is now appreciated. Waller gave
the firpt- production of his new play in Liver-
pool last week, and enthusiastic praise Is all
that odi'. be beard of It.
'-SmltbUs -at the Princess, and 'Is doing le-
markaUy well, for Its humor Is about the size
liked here. Next week The Dairymaids, one of
the standard comic operas, trill . be the at-
tractl<Ai. ■ ' _
The V Sailor's Wedding, one 6t flie Bowery
kind of melodramas. Is at the Qneen's, and Is
packing them, tight. .
Charles Blaney's Young Buffalo, King of the
WUd West, is to open in Stratford on file 26th,
after which It will tour tiie v^ovinces If it
bits, and I have no doubt It will, for it Is
more consistent and a better play than any-
tUng In the melodrama line that I have seen
here in the cheap houses, i
All the twenty cheap houses of Manchester
are playing to thg best business of the season
as are the variety theatres.
The ■White City has just had its annual
Lifeboat Fund demonstration, and thirty-five
thousand people packed the park. The tab-
leaux, etc. In the parade were magnificent, and
the twenty bands gave mi»e music than has
been heard In Mancihester at one time In many
moons. Many special attraeUoiiB were pro-
vided by Mr. Brown, and the amount he. turned
over to the great national ' charity Tons well
Into the thousands of dollars. The regular
summer season at 'White City ends on October
1, and It has been a successful one In every
way. Next season begins at Easter. 1911. bat
during the -winter dancing, skating, blniarda.
moving pictures, etc., will keep the place open
in part and furnish popnlar amnsement to the
pe<vle of the district. SMALL.

Honse on October 10. The sale of seats Is now
open and they are selling fast. The IndleaUons

The Mysterious Burglar at the Empress Thea-
tre, was one of the funniest comedies seen at
this theatre for many days and was played to
crowded bouses. The Little Minister In wblch
Maude Adams made such a hit, will be the
next play produced by the Sanford Players. MIhs
Isabelle Fletcher will have the role of Lady
Babble, and she Is well fitted for It In every
way. The rest of the cast will he in capable
bands. The production will be complete In
every detail.
The Program at the Orpheum week of Sept.'
12 was a well balanced presentation of diver-
Bifled -vaudeville. Franklyn Ardell and Company
in The Suffragette, was the Headllner and was
both interesting and amusing. Others on the
bill were Kate Fowler, Hetty Crma. The Vng-
ges, Boland Carter and Company in Vacation
Time, and Haydyn, Borden and Haydyn.
John L. Sullivan and Jake Kllraln topped the
hill at the Pantagcs, week of Sept. 12 and they
received a great reception. The Florence Trio,

more and EtaymoDd and Mason. Wilbur aud Jor-
dan, completed a well-balanced bill all 'round
and had plenty of variety and lots of comedy.

sition. . „ . .

EXTREMELY COMICAL.
(Continued from page IS.)
■kill In every detail that the well-worn and old
word, success, is a wesk description of the
evening's triumphant lesult."
The American: "A new Rench comedy op-
ened last night at the I^rceum Tlieatre. It was
called Decorating Clementltte, and la from the
French of Armand De Caillavet and Robert
De Flers, who are now enhancing a reputation
already gained In France. Under a new agree-
ment, Charles Frohman Is to esChsoge playa
with these plsywrlgbts, end the flrst that haa
come to America la the one produced last night.
"The audience lauKhed from the moment the
curtain went up until It dropped on the last
set. The comedy Is pat together In a strsnge
Sort ot way. but It carried across the footlights
as far as humw Is concerned."
And this Is the story: Clementine Msrgerle. a
successful antbor. tbe beloved wife of Paul
Margerlo, an earnest chicken fancier, conceives
a desire -to be decorated with tbe Legion of
Honor ribbon. She vlslta the Minister of Fine
Arts and tries to llirt with him. but la nnsuc*
vessfal Id her ignorance of tbe art. She ordert
her hnsband. therefore, to flirt with Adrlenne,
the Minister's wife, who is skilled In the nme
through long and varied practice. Paul Is
successful. Tbe wife Is disconsolate. She
receives her decoration, she finally torglvea
Paul, and be takes off the coveted ribbon and
puts It In his pocket to keep for her.
Running through this plot Is a Russian count,
who has the flxed belief that all women love
BIm. and a youthful, silly diplomat, who does
the wrong thing consistently.

"Very funny satire of a common fatllnir."
writes the Times critic, who continues: "When
Mr. P. T. Barnnm uttered hta famom lemnk
that, the^ American pnUie Ukea being bambos*
ged, be might have added with equal truth
that the one thing It likes even better Is
seeing tbe other fellow hombogged. And the
second of these truisms gives zest to such a
play as Get Rich Quick Walllngford, acted at
the Gaiety last night, and received with every
manifestation of delight.
"The play, like the stories fnnn which it
has been adapted, has a foundation not only
In the Blngnlarly brilliant exploits of one ex.
ceptlonally adroit manipulator of other pe<q)le*s
money, but In that very generaf bnman deaire
to get something for nothing which ^makes al-
most everybody at some time or another an
easy mark. And so when the brljght young
man In the play who Is looking for -a good in-
vestment and la assured of bis 79 per cent.,
and asked If he would like to get it answers,
'Yes, ALI. I can get.' the house recognizes and
enjoys a very common falling. So Get Rich
Quick Walllngford very obligingly takes his
money — that Is to say, ' {9,000 of hia whole
savings, telling him to keep his odd $1,000
for another time. '1 guess I'd better,* then re-
marks the lamb, whose name Is just that; 'for
I might need' It,' And Walllngford agrees that
he will." •
The Press finds that tbe comedy sags a Ut,
and believes that its ultimate snceeaa la du-
bious. Conventionality of plot la tbe pin that
might -prick the success bubble. -
The Bersld, on the other band, believes It a
lively comedy and sums It up like this:
"Tbe large audience to a man and woman
seemed to expect a good play and have several
laughs. If any was disappointed that mortal
should strslghtway consult the family physi-
cian and ask for a 'cheer-up' prescription.
"Unlike many dramatizations of good atories
or novels, this one has not been spoiled; In fact.
It acts even better that It read between maga-
zine covets. If Mr. Cohan had never done
anything else he deserves praise for writing a
delightful comedy and for assembling a com-
pany that could not have been Improved npon."
"Xew comedy brings delight," saya the Son.
and compares Cohan to the old-schoOl writer,
Chvt. Hoyt:
"This child of Broadwsy, <3earge M. Cohan,
la In a certain manner a member of tbe dra-
matic school of Hoyt. But he sticks closer to
nsture. and has somewhat more regard for the
probabilities. There is much that is Improb-
able ■ In last night's play, but there Is much

BUYING A

Is Not An Every-Day Matter
Neither is a TRUNK bought for tempo-
rary use; for that veiy reason you should
select a TRUNK which has great dura-
bility, one that is made to defy rough
handh'ng of the baggage smashers, in other 4
words it is a »
G & S NEVERBREAK TRUNK
which is constructed of five-ply veneer,
havingacoveringofhiBrdvuteuuzed fibre. ^

In general outline tbe act la as follows: Members of the audience desiring any Information

queries into writing, which never leaves tbelr possession and is seen by no other person. The
writers are Identified and placed by tbe p«tf ormec from the stage wbo. tboogta blindfolded, seated
or standing, with absolutely paralysing correctness, reads the questions and furnishes rrpllea
either on the spot, by mall or at a subsequent interview — as Is indicated by tbe nature of the
matter under consideration. ,
Ihe act Is not pnrcbaaeable elsewhere. We have it for sale in its entirety. While we send
complete, ample and explicit directions for tbe entire routine we wlab to state that the funda-
mental basis Is mechanical and that all tbe Instructions In tbe world would be absolutely useless
without the Ingeniously constructed mechanism and appliances we supply. No study, no memory,
no codes, signals, confederacy, "hora.-s," etc., necessary. A perfectly creditable performance la
within the reach of any person posstssed of average Intelligence, and withont practice, within an
hour of the receipt of tbe ontfit we send. It is perf'ctly practicable In a small halt. Pleaae

GRAFT IN THE PIANO TRADE.
(Cotttlnned from page 13.)
the grafter are such that If the piano is sold
at card price, the commission Is $100. If it
becomes necessary to cut the price $75, tbe
commission is $50. It the cut is $100, the
commission Is $25, and If the cut Is more than
$100, the graft is only $10.
This Is only an illustration, but It goes to
sbow what the grafter •wlll do to the customer.
It Is bribery and graft nil in one. Is there any
protection for the public? No, but the nearest
approach to protection Is to go where prices
are nearest nnlform and most rigidly adhered
to.
EARLY STRUGGLES OF A
CELEBRITY.
(Continaed . from page 9.)
"Ob! la! la!" they cried. "She's left her
figure In her trunk. She's as flat as a pan-
cake." And Yvette Gnllbert, who today can
draw the world to hear her, was hissed off the
stage.
**Yon have been paying me $240 ■ month."
she said to the manager when sbe left. "Eb,
blen! I wHI come back next year and yon
BhaU pay me $240 a night." Her words came
true.
Back again to the Eldorado she went, but
was again a failure and so she tried the Eden
Concert in the Bonlevard Strasbourg, where
Francois (}oppee and Francisque Sarcey, the
great critic, used to drop In on Fridays.
She steeped herself In realism; she read Zola.
Goncourt and de Maupassant. She says; **I
wanted to do In song what they did In fiction."
Chance once more came to her aid. She
bonght a little book of songs «i a bookstall tor
sixpoice— Les Chansons Sans Gene— and these
were the songs that laid the fonndatlan ot her
fame.
At Liege her -genius was recognized at once.
Brussels engaged her at $200 a night and with
the noise of her Belgian success still echoing,
she came tmek to Pans, wbere with <fld BIdler,
she Obtained an engagement at the Moulin
Bonge.
"Gil Bias" gave her a long critical notice.
Yvette GuUbert became a cult. Engagements
worth thousands of dollars followed, and the
little dressmaker, who had tramped In the &ost
and rain for a few cents, became one of tbe
most famous artists In the world. .
Such Is a summary of Yvette Gnllbert's earlv
career as told by liersdf. But nothing sums
her up better than tbe description of Henri Lav-
endan, one of France's most famous dramatists:
"Yvette Guilbert Is a poster, whieb speaks
and sings and moves, but still is a poster, a
big. ghastly. Impudent poster which sends a
shiver down your back.
"1 am always reminded when I hear ber, of
Edgar ABan Poe's woman In wax -with a nho-
nograpb Inside it. Is she really alive? Well,
I can not say more than that."

There are two clever turns at the Palace
Just now. Nat M. Wills talks and the Kauf-

at the Coliseum with great auccesa, have been

loglsts made themselves.
Still no sign of the light pictures. From tbe
blgb figures asked for them at first the latest

The Storm, a New Play, 'ReiemblM
The G reat D ivide.
Mayor Mahool baa selected September 29 as
the date of the first meeting of the commission
to prepare plans for the Banner ' Exposition
in 1914. Tbe commission Is composed of 100
representative citlsens and the meeting will
take place In tbe Mayor's reception room in the
City Hall. Tbe purpose of the meeting la to
organize and appoint the various snb-commlttees
to look after the plans after tbey have been
completed. Many Invitations have been sent oat
and a large attendance Is expected.
The Storm, a new play by Langdon McOor-
mick, was the opening production at the Acad-
emy of Mostc last -week and it was well received
by large andlenees. Thomas W. Byley baa
staged the play In a maner tbat evokes tbe
greatest admiration. The scenes are laid to
the Canadian wlldemess and the first act which
resembles a forest scene. Is as realistic as
though nature bad been . transplanted. Tbe
Storm, although a play of strongly dramatic In-
tensity, has a striking resemblance to Tbei
Great Divide. Tbe company with only five play-
ers gave an excellent performance, which was
much enjoyed. The cast Includes: Robert T.
Haines, 0>nway Tearle, Muriel Starr. Noah
Beny. Jr., and Moris But.
Girlie*, which followed, played to great at-
tendance. Three Million Dollars and Tbe Olrl
in me Taxi followed In order.
Con & Co.. which was tbe opening attraction
at the Andltorlnm, Is a very clever comedy
which was much enjoyed by large aodteoces.
The play la a pleasing farce adapted from a
French play by Oliver Herford. Harry Stone
and William Bnrress appear as the members ot
the firm and as professional grafters tbey suc-
ceed In extracting wealth from their crednloua
victims with tbe utmost ease. But the serious
part of the play concerns Maude OdeU, who
appears as the wife of sn arlstoeratle and
Jealous German. To allay bis wrath as to ber
acquaintance wltb a former admirer, she Is
obliged: to appear as a music ball singer and
In the composite role she has every opportunity,
of displaying ber ability and versatility |n his-
trionic art which Won ber great applsnte: Tbe

Theatre la faat nearlng completion, and It Is
weekly expected that the opening date will be
annonnced. thna giving thla city fifteen thea-
trea of tbe larger alze, and added to ttla some
230 motion picture theatres, we find ourselves
psytng a good portion of our money to tbe
aervtcea of the protesslon. The condltloos not-
withstanding the quantity ot housea are ;fenerally
good, and as tbe waath^^r has been more ut tlw

signtfles that we may expect a moat healthy

Readers^ Column
Editor nie Billboard:
I haTe read with a great , amount of Interest
your editorial in the present Issue of The Bill-
boaid, on the outrages of tlie present dav dra-
matic critic (?) of the metropolitan da"lly. 1
want to compliment - yon on the stand von
haTe taken. '
A man of letters once derivated a critic as
one who had failed himself In that parUcnL-ir
art he was criticising, and the Inference i^ems
a proper one. I like to read a review oi! a
play when the criticism is well taken, bnt the
tronble seems to be that In many lnstan»s
there are men and women writing on the drama
that haye no definite knowledge of the sub-
ject. 1 have known tbem to speak disparaelng-
J'' °£_ noted actors who were not in the bill.-
but their names were on the program. I don't
believe that the real . dramatic critic -writ's
anarchistic" malice of any production, and is
a majority of instances their opinion is coinci-
dent with the public. The dramatic critic who
goes to the theatre to find faultn with the
play will always Und them Just as readily as
be can find faults with himself. There is nnrh-
Ing perfect, nor will there ever be, but tiip
man or woman who harps on tbe good ones
win , And more satisfaction and satisfy his
readers more thoroughly than pointing ont that
wnleh .of necessity Is Imperfect.
. rnieatrleal managers and: agents know tliese
nnjnst critics, and It .is common to hear — If
yon liaTe a new production: '.'Here's where we
get roasted." They know that In the anatomy
of this ignoramns there la no : qnallty of mer-
cy; good or had, the roast Is there. It- would
seem that Ibe Intelligent theatregoer would
become reconciled to this fact, jnst as the the-
atrical man Is, and there Is STery reason to
believe that- lie docs. I hsTe often heard tbe
remark, and so have you: "let's see what the
d t has to say this time." • And there
you are. So In summing tbe whole matter op,
let ns hope that the good, fair-minded- paper,
wliose principles are jastlce' to: all. will sec
Its error in allowing Incompetent and preju-
diced dramatic writers to use the dictates of
stich a conscience, - wrong and mallctonsly, to
tbe detriment of the drama and flnanelii Ion
to the producers.' Let them send-a. -reporter
to tbe play, lust as they do to .the convention,
and as The Billboard suggests. Let him- write
the sentiments toward the prodnetlon mani-
fest^. -.by. the '.representative audience among
-which be sits, bowaTer. without' malice atore-
tboBtfltt. ' Yodm tmly, s s ' ■ ' 1

TH£ BILLBOARD
OCTOBER 1, 1910.
Nearly every week I a sending out to Mewing Picture Exhibitors a lot of very
valuable information which does not appear in my BUlboard ads. If ydur name is not^^
my mailing Uitiyoi^r^ missing d lot of good stuH^ yoa Oughi to know.
If you're a good imiti^ you want to know everything you can possibly learn
about the business you're engaged in. There are many licensed exhibitors who don't want
to know anything about Independent moving pictures. They don^t want to find out that
Independent films can be and are better than they want to think they are.
' Such exhibitors are like ihe bone-headed client who fires the lawyer who tells him
what he ought to hear and hires the one who tells him what he wants to hear. They've
got the head-hiding ostrich beaten to a Spanish omelette.
The people who come to your thedtre'y the people who support you with their admission
fees are not like that. You cant blind them by shutting your own eyes.
They are finding out faster and faster every day that when a theatre has an "Inde-
pendent" banner spread across its front, that theatre is giving- an almighty good show-^
the best show in town.
Many of your regular patrons are getting sick of the films you are showing. You
know it, but you hate to adniit it. Denying it Won't get you anything. The thing for you
to do, old t(^, is to get in closer t^^ plan your campaign
accordingly. If I prove to be of eissiis^ance in posting you as. to the factSf I'll expect you
'o do ihe right thing and come to me when you make up your mind to try Independent
films. And of course you^re going to wake up some time.
If you'll send me your name and address I'll put you on that mailing list. I charge
no royalties. ■ : — — — — — — —

The Use of Amusement Journals.
While The Billboard and other of the more important amusement Jour-
nals are making efforts to conserve the Interests of the business in general,
they are more or less antagonized from time to time by men of power and
consequence in the business who are too narrow to appreciate the value and
ii^portance of Journalism who do not realize in their own minds the benefits
derived from' the publications devoted exclusively to amusements. Some of
tiiem have even been known to characterize the leading amusement papers
Cfi parasites and superfluities. But against these men of power, whose posi-
tions have been attained through progressive methods in other lines, we have
the Judgment of the true amusement magnate, the man of caliber and per-
spective who does not hesitate to acknowledge the vocation and sphere of
those papers that are struggling from week to week to advance their in-
terests, to eliminate the evils that Infest the amusement field, and to effect,
as far as possible, a perfect smoothness and co-operation among the allied
parts of the great amusement machine.
The amusement Journal is per se an agency for the good of the pro-
fession. It is equally an agency for the good of the business end of the pro-
fession. How far each Individual Journal Is a good agency depends entirely
upon its quality and character, and upon the scrupulosity and clean methods
of its publishers. No amusement Journal exists because It Is Mnsatlonal.
The secret of the existence of the more powerful papers devoted
to amusement lies In usefulness — In the degree of efficiency at-
Ulnel in their setting forth of the information from week to week
that -the people in the amusement world need or are benefited by having.
The paper that gives the most useful Information, that makes the most care-
ful selection of its matter without regard to sensationalism Or the mere in-
terest Of incident, Is the paper that essentially occupies the highest position
Of power, influence, popularity and prestige.
Amusement Journalism needs no' defense. We are merely setting forth a
few facts suggested by the hide-bound ideas of those managers of circuits
and booking offices who can see "no good in the theatrical paper nohow."
The Passing of the Death-Defyer.
Thfe declaration of a performer who has twice dally during his more or
less consecutive engagements^or a number of years risked his life for the
amusement of the public, that a recent accident had clinched his determina-
tion to abandon his act for something less dangerous, if less remunerative.
Is significant of a somewhat general disposition in this country to relegate
the death-defyer and to employ our skill and concentrate our Interest in
things lera precarious to health and wholeness. We do not attempt to say
whether this change of preference Is due to the development of a 'taste for
more useful science and more artistic, though less thrilling achievements
or not. Whatever the cause, the effect Is the same. The death-defyer Is
rapidly passing Into the Umbo of useless things.
It Is a good thing for the profession. It removes the individual who has
a careless regard for his life, and an inordinate greed for the money that
precedent established as compensation for risk of life and limb as an amuse-
ment feature. Precedent has been over-turned. The acts that have come
forward during the past few years as headllneis* and top-salaried ones are
characterized by the highest development of skill or the employment of
artistic methods, means and ends. The matter is not of a great deal of
consequence to the manager or booking agent one way or the other, but to
the profession it means much. There has always been a sort of ostracism of
th'j death-defyer. pure stnd simple, from the little coteries of performers.
In relation to them, he has long occupied a position very similar to that of
the successful, though uncultured, prospector in the society of fashion.
In addition to relieving the stage o£ an unwelcome and undesirable factor,
it removes from the profession of amusements one of the stigmas that has
long attached to it, one of the approaches through which the detractor
has had his easiest and most unopposed access.
We smile as the death-defyer makes his conge.
Yellow Journalism and Otherwise. '
The B,niboard Is going to anticipate the application of the epithet "yel-
low" as its characterization. Our recent covers in orange and black have
won a great deal of favorable comment. Therefore, unless some follower
(and The B.illboard has a number of these) adopts this color for its use, we
win employ It frequently in the future to Identify our minor special issues.
The inauguration of this policy of issuing a seinl-special each m>>nth,
devoted preponderantly to some paullcular phase of the amusement bufiitefs,
proves to be a success of considerable dimensions. We have already issued
an Autumn Number, to signalize the opening of the theatrical season, uml a
Jifuslc Number which contained an abundance of specially prepared matter
of paramount Interest to musicians in the profession. It is our further pur-
pose to Issue Burlesque, Vaudeville, Circus. Park, Pair, Motion Picture and
Skating editions in due time and season. Be It said here, that one of these
numbers will appear each month, distinguishable by the orange and black
cover and containing a careful selection of matter appertaining to that par-
ticular phase or branch of the amusement business to which the number is
dedicated.
These pseudo-specials will have no affect upon our issuance of the reg-
ular and more important special numbers designated as the Christmas Num-
ber and the Spring Special. These two more ambitious specials will be char-
acterized by covers •lithographed in multi-colors and executed in the most
artistic and expensive fashion. '
Once again The Billboard has put one over on its imitators.

Teresa Be Mine
Chicago. 111., Oct. 1 (Special to The Bill,
board). — Teresa Be Mine lias entered Its sec-
ond week at lie Chicago Opera House, This
production Is schednled to remain, with ns bnt
one more week. Amy Xeslle, of the Chicago
Daily News, In reriewlDg this, production, said:
'•The production bears every evldehce of
hurry and scarry and last expedient. Nice
costumes, pretty scenery, hut neltlier a cast
worthy its- possibilities nor an orchestra leader
who appreciates the virility and splendor of
the score.
"TbK entertainers engaged in the piodnctlon
at- the CUcago Opera Hoose are excellent sec-
ond-jclus comedians, with excellent second-daaB
voices, whereas their devoirs demand artists
of tbs most delicately attuned gifts and musical
accompUshmests." ;
In speaking Of the sane, she mentions sev-
eral otber musical prodncttons now holding
forth in Chicago, and then goes on to cay:
"There arrives to swell the waveis a bril-
liant score by Jean Brlcgnet (whom we are all
applauding fnrlonsly and enthnstastlcally for his
other works) in Teresa Be Mine, sometbing love-
ly as to score and depIOraMe as to action,
singing and book."
Frederic Hatton. of the Post, lands the score
'as follows:
"The new musical play at the ciblcago Opera
House will owe whatever success it achieves to
a score of much grace and charm. The music
is better than that which goes to the making
of the average popular betuned play — there are
real numbers in Teresa. Be Mine — and one
must regret that the book, adapted for the
United States by Adolph Plillllp, whose Alma,
Wo WOhnst Dn? abides with ns, does not
reach an equally artistic plane.**

James l O'Sonnell' Bennett, of the Chie
Beoord-Berald:— "Tlie OaUblens Is parlor mc _
drama, containing some of . tbe well-remsolwnd
thrills that never fall Uie handy craftsman, but
not disclosing any aspects either very sineats.
or very ingenious. In Its confused and fcnnr
ethics it is distinctly of the ttieatre — the stOes
of the 'theatre being by no means synooynums
with the ethics of the drama, for one Is a popn-
lar institution and the otper an «rt form.*^
Percy Hammond, of the Chicago Trlbone:-
'^Mr. Klein does not write bis plays tor tliat
austere minority whlidi nwite or leas ponctll-
loosly insists iroon tene«ty in art. If not in
ethics, and ao, The Ganiblers, given to ns last
evening at tbe Lyric amid much tnmnit and
clamor, included no disappointing featoies. It
Is one of those Joomaliatic affairs so typical
of Mr. Klein's endeavor, a crude but ecectlre
admixture of tioot-Mge staff and sex, wttti a
big debate In tbe middle and the handsome and
attractive woman dlscovnlitlnff . tbp . anpleaaant .
man as the curtain falls on tbe crisis. Hitherto
Mr. Klein risaally lias been considered a Ber-
serker, battling bare u<ned tot commercial and
social righteousness, a sort of theatrical <nuck-
raker witli intentions to Improve tbe vroild vis
bis earnest, elemental, and tamboorlnle bom-
lUes."
S^ric De iLamarter, of the Chicago Inter-Ocean,
said: — ^"Tbose wlio were present at this Initial

playing of tlie cast selected, advised and di-

1— THOMAS AND ROGERS, Rural Comedy
Sketcb. Very poor female Impersonation.
Tbe singing and dancing wag in tbe same
class as the Impersonation.
3 — ANNIE VINTON, Cbaracter Singing and
Dancing. Costumed neatly, pretty (air
voice and dancing. Shorter songs and more
dancing required to strengthen the act.
3— MONARCH QUARTETTE. Four good-look-
ing hoys, with excellent voices. Very good
harmony and Due comedy. Went big.
The goo<l things that Jack Norwortb and Nora
Bayes would draw people to tee by beadllolng
such a bill as these ten acta, would certain-

The Week at the
Trevett Theatre!
Chicago, Oct. 1. (SpeelBl to Tbe Billboard).—
Tbe bill at tbe Trevett Theatre last week was
one of the best that baa been offered so far this
season. The Lewin Mattel TMo, xylophone ex-
perts, opened tbe bill and {ilayed some of the
popular songs which made a big bit wttb tbe
aodlence. J. Knox Gavin and Jennie Piatt,
presenting A Stolen Kid, vrent very well.
Grace Orma, tbe bit ot the bill with her Six
Feet of Comedy, was one of <he cleverest per-
formers seen at tbis theatre, and there la cer-
tainly a bright fntnre for this energetic come-
dienne. The Bohemian Qolntette were very pop-
ular with the andlepce, giving a condensed
version of Tbe Bohemian Girl. Tackley and
Bunnell bad a very clever act, entitled Break-
ing It In, which kept the audience In ontburats
of laughter. Thin act Is certainly a credit to
this South Side theatre. Barnes and King, a
novelty act, entitled Watch the Ball, went well.
Harry Webb, the black-face comedian. Is to be
put in a class b.v btmsclf, as be la far supe-
rior to any black-face comedian aeen at the Tre-
vett this season. The Hera's Family closed
tbe bill with their remarkable teats ot acrobat-
ic wot%. This act Is very good. It the Tte-
vett Theatre continues to give aa good bills the
rest ot this season as they dU last week there
win surely be a happy smile on the face of
S. W. Qninn, the manager.

BatalUe, author of The Scandal, Charles Froh-
man wishes to correct the ettoneoos account of
SS. Batallle'B new play, which had Its first
performance at Brldgeiport last week. In the

Rumor of
Riot Untrue
The Situation
In Denver
Denver. Col., Oct. 1. — Saving . anccessfully
negotiated an alliance With tbe Independent
theatrical syndicate controlled by John Oort and
the Shnberts, Peter McConrt has retoraed to
Denver and assumes the management of the
Auditorium, in addition to the Tabor Grand.
McConrt believes that the Shuberta will re-
linquish control of the theatre they are build-
ing here, now that he has a contract with
them to play hia bouses, and that In all prob-
ability Klaw & Brianger will secure a lease
which will give Denver two first-claas bouses
running In opposltlim, '
"The arrangements tbat I have made with
the Independents," said Mr. McConrt. "does
not mean tbat I - have fallen ont with the
syndicate governed by Klaw A Erlanger. I
wonld like to book their shows In tbe future
as well as the Independents, but I can not tell
now If they will permit It.
"When I went to New York I had twelve
contracts for the Broadway this season and
nineteen for the Tabor Grand. Klaw & Er-
langer would not book Independent attractions
for me, so In order to keep my theatres open
I made a contract with John Cort to book
wb*t attractions be can for alt vacant time.

and thrown off tbe train and tbe other escaped

police and tbe ofllcers of the show located all
fonr of tbe negroes, who ate now under wrest
and will be taken back to Colombia for triu.
Bnt little Is known of the negroes, as tney
had been with tbe show but a few days.
The same (our men held up a number of
workmen with the show and relieved them or
their wages which they bad received SatnrdBy.
Tbe men under arrest have been (ally wentl-
fled by a number of the show people, and wUI
probably pay the penalty on the gallows. They
are said to be members of a gang of negrj

favorable notices given the show by several ot
the New York daillea and assured Ita readen
that, the writer of the original "roast" woOId
never anin be identlfled with Ita editorial
staff. The question ot criticism Is of more
Importance than la tnnally granted and there
Is no form of attraetloa which bas more cans*
tor complaint than the bnrimnie show. It is
seldom that a competent man Is sent to cover
the burlesque ptoductlon. and the result la often
dlsconraglng to the manager and ptodneer who
baa to read an nnUnd opinion ot a really good
show written by some "cub" reporter Or writer
who Is absolutely nnqoallfled to write abont a
show of any kind and who la wltbont a grain
ot technical knowledge regardinc dramatic pro-
dnctton. The dramatic critic should be com-
petent before he presnlaes to tell other people
their business, and the man who can write about
gnnd opera Is rften as unable to Judge an
attraction of a lighter variety as be vrould be to
cover a prise fight. The theatrical erttte should,
.«t_ least, possess a knowledge of his snhject,
and sbonid have made some studies of stage
technique as well aa such Important Items, as
elocution, stage' deportment, ferpdchore, make-
Op. and stage mechanics. The critic should be
familiar with the exigencies of the business
and should be broad minded enough to take
Into consideration, local disadvantages, such
as Inadequate stage room, the dlaeomfort ot a
poor house to performers, the dllBcnltles of
nnt night openings following a long and dla-
agreeable Jump, the Indisiraeltlon ot snfferinga
of a sick BTUielpal and a tbonaand and on*
obstacles which may tend to make a single
performance fall flat. The critic should have
certainly made a study of theatricals and shoold
be familiar with the people he crltlclxee, and
should know ot their previous efforts on the
stage. It Is tmfalr to allow any writer to give
a public opinion ot a performance unless he
is an authority on the aobject be prcsnmes to
cover, and the amatenr writer who doesn't
know the dltTereace between a atua brae* and
a pot of Up rouge ahoutd confine ma elforte to
other subjects and let tbeatrtcala alone until
he has made himself competent to Jndge a per-
formance with an Impartial and liberal fair-
ness, never forgetting to comment npon the bet-
ter featnrea of the show and to give credit
where It Is due,
Ed. Gallagher and AL Shean bayt kept their
word and have given the Eastern Wheel a pro-
dnctios that Is worthy of any stage. The pcla-
clpala are aU good, and tbe ptodactlon haa Deen
staged with the pleaaing attention to detail
which Is helping hnrlesqne to hold Ita own
with the best of mnslcsl ptodnctlona. The title
of the commedletta la the Qlrl from Paris,
wUch was made famous s<»ne yeara ago by
lonls Mann. Bd. Gallagher bas the light com-
edy straight. Is magnetic and forceful, and
with bis pleasing voice Is so<hi a favorite. Al.
Shean. with whose work all the play-going world
la familiar, irzealatibly fanny In <iua Vadls
Upslde-Oown, la funnier than . ever as Hans,
the Oermas botelkeeper, and he manages to
keep hla audience In a continual roar of laugh-
ter from cnrtain to etirtaln. Thomas de Taasy
aa Fompler, Is especially good and hla Ftena
dialect la far above the nsnal standard. Hla
part la neatly and appropriately dressed and
with the exception ot a sllgbt lack of grace In
general deportment, there Is no fanlt to find
with his work. Will Potter aa Amos Dingle,
Sidney Borrow as MaJ. Fbsdyke. and Frank
Hunter as Tony C«rbonI, are all good, while
the work ot Edna Davenport as Mile. Bon Bon.
Is especially pleasing. Mlsa Davenport la one
of the brightest Jewels In the cast, and her
efforta receive the appreciation they deserve.
Mabel Leslie as Mis. . Boneycomh, la alao wen
suited for the part, while the tAaraetet votk
of Annette Ckddle as the servant girl la both
natural and easy. The oilo Is opened by An-
nette Qoldle with coon songs which she geta
over vrith an .easy style ot grace. The Potter-
Haitwell Trio make their usual hit with tbelr
fast and furious comedy acrobatic act. Billl*
Potter's two-head gag belns the urn* old
scream. Ed. Gallagher and AT Sbeaa In a weU-
staged botletta. The Battle ot Bajr Bmn, make
thw biggest bit, and send the andlsaett ant at
Intennlamm In a happy frame of mind. The
Girl from Paris Is coatlnned In the aeeond part
with a pretty full stage garden scene setting
showing a rustic arched bridge at center door.
The second part la better than the drat and la
Interspersed with appropriate numbera. all ot
them led by really good alngers and supported
by a good-looking, well-dressed, and unusually
good Bbiglng chorus. The big banner show Is
a credit to Ita pradncera who. by the way, are
new-comers In burlesqne and it Is sure of a
pleasant reception all along the line.
There Is hut one blonde chorus gtrl with Ulss
New York, Jr., (Western Wheel), and she cer-
tainly stands out from the rest. Her name
Is Buth Kendall, and she was. last aeaaoa and
Sart of the season before, with Jacob* and
ermon's Golden Crook, (Baatern Wheel). Both
Is a lively and good-looking girl ot sixteen
summers, and was, Isst season, one of the
Stan ot tbe choms girl coatesta with Th*
Crooks. She Is.poasessed ot a sweet soprano
voice of unusual ' range and power, aim ta
worthy ot a better place than In the ranka ot
tbe chorus.

Napoleon Ade
Meets a Wellington
New Tort, Oct. 3 (Spedal to Tbe Bill-
board). — George Ade, the humorist, came to
town Tuesday. Sept. 27, long enough to
confess that he wIU not be tbe author of a
new play called TJ. S. Uinister Jackson, for
the very excellent reason that a real
United SUtes Minister Jaclraon won't let
bim. It seems tbat no so<mer had tbe fact
been published that Mr. Ade had delivered
GbariM Fndunan a new play for WUIlam
H. Crane caned IT. 8. Minister Jackson,
than Mr. Jadcson, Minister of Cuba, wrote
Mr. Ade; kindly admonishing tbe humorist
against o^ng his name.
Just before leaving for WaSblngtim yes-
terday, Mr. Ade, dressed in an almost
white suit In some kind of Indiana home-
spun, and besides wearing a tUck coat of
tan, cultivated on Haieldon Farm, told In
Us own words tbe story of a playwright
who was Just recovering from a head-on col-
lision with a United States Government of-
ficial, and this is wbat be, Mr. Ade, said:
"I hereby take credit for rescuing from
the oblivion of Cuba to the IUiiBtrious_gIory
of 'these here United States,' United
States Minister Jackson. Ton never beard
of blmT Wen, wait -ontn X tell yoa.
"About a month ago I delivered Mr.
ftohman a new play for William H. Crane,
called U. S. Minister Jackson. The scenes
are laid in tbe South American Bepnblic,
and Mr. Crane was to have been Minister
Jackson. But tbe newspapers no sooner
printed the fact than a r»a Utaited States
Minister Jackson sprang Into existence; be
Is Minister to Cuba: and I have his letter
requesting me to kindly lean him In X)U)a

CIRCUSES PAY TEXAS
Agieement Reached Between Ringlbgs* Agent and Attorney-General.
SeHs-Floto Also Compelled to Make a Settlement with
Lone Star State Authorities
Oo September 28tb, a aettlcment was effected
by repreaentatlrcB o'f BInglIng Bros.' Ctrcaa
with the Attorney-General's Department of the
State- of Texas, the state accepting (IZ.OOO as
full piyment for all taxes claimed dae, and
tbe clrcu* paying the coat of the trial. The
suits' were for considerable more than the
amoants settled for. hut aa the RIoglIng Broth-
ers were able to sbow tbtt tliejr did not give
two .performances In every place they exhibited,
the compromise was effected. Salts were pend-
ing in Dine coantles of Texas. With this settle-
ment, RlngUof Brothers bsve cleared their slste
of this Indebtedness, and are now free -to enter
the state early In October on the new basla,
Tbe payment of this money is tbe result of
a esse that has been before the l!texaa eonria
for the past three years, and which was in tbe
first place Inatigated by tl. H. Tammen, pro-
prietor, with H. E. Bonflls, <a tbe Sella-FIoto
Circus. The Messrs. BIngling were able to
procne Informatloo "by wbltA. . tbronsh retalia-
tion, ' they forced tbe Sells-Floto Show to pay
utes. Mr. Tammen. at the 'beginning of bis
enmity with tbe BInglIng Brothers, as a devel-
opment of tbe bitter competltloa between tbe
shows, apprised tbe State Department of Texas
of tbis Irregular practice by the rival clrcns men
and the Attorney-Oeneral made a complete can-
vas of the license departments In the -towns and
counties the BInglIng Brothers' Shows had given
performanceli doting aeveral years' tours.
In this way an estimate . of the dllference be-
tween the amoants required by the etatntes, and
those actually paid were arrived at In a rough
way and tlie State instltnted salt.
In the meantime the -Messrs. 'Bingllngs had
discovered that - the Sells- Ploto Shows had
practiced a somewiiat similar evasion of the li-
cense laws, and another investigation was In-
stltnted, with the result that tbe Sells-Floto
Shows paid over to tbe stste (14,000. and the
BlDKlIng Bratbers $12,000, as previonsly stated.
While the BInglIng Brothers' method was to
obtain the - lowest lleense ' possible on any
pretext fitting tbe local sitnatlon. the Sdls-
ADAM FOREPAUGH'S LIFE
The History of a Great Showman, Tdd by an Old-tinKr Intimately
/^sociated With Him Diuing His Successhil Career
; By J. MIUTON TBABER. -
Tbe Billboard wishes to give to the world a
few facta from the life of this famous Ameri-
can showman, which will be useful, because
they serve as an Inspiration for the yonth of
the land, and a guide for mature manhood.
Adam Forepaugh, whose fame has reached the
limits of every continent, waa bom In Phila-
delphia. Pa.. February 28, 1831. and died at
bis home In that city, on January 22, 1890.
Be received only sncli tuition in his earlier years
as was at that time afforded the ehUdren of
the poor.
He began his career as a butcher's kpprentice
at tbe meagre salary of four dollars per month
and board. At the age of sixteen be went West
and worked In the meat market of Mr. John
Butcher, In Cincinnati, who still lives In the
thrifty little city of CrawfordsvUle, Indiana.
He remained with his new employer for a year
and a half, receiving fifty dinars for tbe first
month and one hundred dollars a month tbe re-
mainder of tbe time. Betuming to Fhlladel-
8hla, he went Into the butcher business for
Imself and In a' little time obtained an In-
terest In a stage line. ' After that lie started
BARNUiVI & BAILEY SCENES.
(1) A fishing party at Santa CriM, California. Frrd Bradna. Spot Jerome. I-Yed Derrick. Patty Frank and Herman Dimes. (2t The side show
*'r. Wiggins and Mr. Bugels, seated, managers of the black top, and side show respectively. (3) Entrance to big top and^ side show, at
I'ortland, Oregon, August S3.
114,000 to the State of Texas during the
month of August last.
The cause for suit In the first Instance waa
based oo the fact that Ringling Brothers' Shows
had paid considerably less than the amounts of
taxes la the various places required by the stat-
Plato method was to gain tbe right to give
two performances for a single performance li-
cense, on the pretext that their show con-
sisted of a continuous performance.
Both cases sre now closed, and both shows
will play Texas this fall.
WHO CAUGHT THIS FISH?
Fish and circuses are hard to connect but fish
stories can be hooked to any old thing. Wit-
ness what hapiM>oc<l to tbe Barnum tc Ballej-
ontflt when It landed In Santa Craa, Cel., the
other day; also witness what happened to the
fish.
The big show got Into Snnta Cnw shortly after
daylight and by the time the tents were up, the
wagons ual»ad<-d and the horses aud people fwl,
there still remnined two hours K>forc parade
timej The Pacldc traniinllly booming against a
sandy beach less than 100 yanls away aud a big
and well e<iul|i|ird natatorlum quite as near
made It possible for lioth men and women to In-
dulge In all klmls of water sports witliout run-
ning the ellghti-st risk of being fined for tanll-
noss. They (the ocvnn and the natatorlum)
Were also resjioiislblc for the biggest tlsh (bnt
ever Intiiled lu Charley llondry's c*iok tent and
for a fish story that bents tbe fish jui>t as a wnh-
oly-eycd whale lays It over tbe puny I'enobscot
pickerel.
. It was .. like this: Fred Krndna. varlotisty
known as Ella Bradna's husbaml, and the cow-
txn'Mlrum major of Chej-enne, believing in his
llshennan'a ability and liking the looks of the
ocean, eharteml a dingy tlio moment the sbow
was on the lot and casting his cow-puncblng
eyo over the entrance to the dn^satng tent, care-
fully picked out the crew of tho boat and the
heroes Of the expedition. They wore "Spot"
Jerome, Prwl Vorrlck, tho bare-back rider; Pat-
ty Frank, acrobat; Ucrmau Dimes and tbe
leader, Fred Bradna, captain of the good ship
"llanlly Ever," the leakiest dingy on the
Pacific.
Just what happened during the halt-hour after
the "Hardly Ever" set sail nobody will ever
know positively. Harry Mooney, boss elephant
tnnn, and Eddie Alexander, better known as the
*'Brown-com King," give a graphic description
of the departure of the ship and apparently they
were the last to take a look at the miserable,
lop-sided tub as she slowly disappeared toward
China under the sturtly strokes of Jerome and
Derrick, with Bradna sitting proudly In the rear
seat, smoking a foot-long cigar. Meanwhile the
rest of tlic drcns folk promptly forgot the
ttshorman in their own enjoyment and it is
doubtful If Bradna's crowd would even have
been missed until parade time if it had not
been for the god-awful noise they made when
the blunt nose of the half-snnk *:ilaidly Bver"
was shoved against the sandy beach, tnos sig-
nifying the return of the great Osb hunten.
The noise was not exactly like the combined
wall of a hundred lost souls nor- did It com-
pletel,v resemble the Idatant honk of a wounded
wilderness. PosslMy it was more like an ac-
clamatory vote In a Socialist convention on tbe
question. "Shall m» have more trastsj" Any
how it was queer, quivering and uncanny and
seemed to emanate from the beach, the boat
and the billows rather than from any particular
member of Bradna's brigade,
(Continued on page 21.)
new lines, and in 1S54, waa sole owner of the
whole business.
While In the omnibus business. Mr. Forepaugh
bought and sold horses and cattle, selling as
many as ten thousand horses In one year. For
this occupation he was especially adapted and,
like the Sells Brothers. Ephrlam. WUIlam Al-
len, Lewis and Peter, uncle John Boblnson and
Benjamin E. Wallace, was known to all horse
dealers the country over. It was said at this
time ^'there was no better indge of horseflesh
Uvlng than Adam Forepaugh." At a single glance
he could tell the age, disposition, and good or
bad qnalities of a horse. In 1861, he sold Mr.
Daniel TImms. a showman, $8,000 worth of
horses and took a mortgage on tbe concern In
part payment.
At this time he had no idea of ever embark-
ing In the show business and it was tbe turning
point in his life. Tbe showman failed to pay
the obligation, and after some months of delay,
Mr. Forepaugh went to Pittsburg, Pa., where
he bought the entire concern, a small affair,
to save the* debt It owed him. He managed It
for awhile with some degree of success, but as-
certained after a little time that It waa too
small an exhibition to' please the public and -win
success. Be then at once bought out the then
-well-known Jerry T. Mables itienagerle, which
Ixrasted of two elephants and a few animals,
paying $42,000 in .casta. This was considered a
large amount in those days and would now out-
fit a small circus at this day's writing. The two
showa were consolidated. He then secured the
services of the veteran jester, tbe original and
only Daniel (Mac Larreo) Bice, the moat famous
showman and Shakespearean down of his day,
at a weekly salary of $1,000. This salary has
never been equaled by any llvlngor dead clown
or any eircns performer. The business was in-
stantly enormous, and Dan Rice was the card
for three seasons.
The entire earnings of the Brat eight years
were appropriated to the enlargement Of the
show. There were twenty cages, then forty.
and finally forty-fotir. requiring hundreds more
of horses, employees, etc.
I might say right here that Just taking "five
special featores" out of the many that tbe ahow
developed butshlned those of any other travel--
ing competitors.
First, he displayed 40 dim colored hones
hitched to a-band wagon and driven by one man; -
horses placed four abieaat. A beantlfnl spec-
tacle.
Second, twenty-eight horses In the ring at
one time, driven by one man.
Third, twenty-four elephants, 12 In each ring,
giving a military drill, both rings being cap-
tained by Mr. Adam Forepaugh, Jr., standing
outside of and between each ring. This act
has never been equaled by any present-day cir-
cus company. .
Fourth, parade was led by two beantlfnl full-
blooded zebras, hitched to a specially constructed
riding trap.
Fifth, Adamt Forepangh's, Jr., "Blondln"
horse, trained to walk a tight rope, first ap-
peared In 1SS6.
Mr. Forepaugh waa also the lessee of Madi-
son Square Garden for six years. This place
Is known aa the greatest auaxj getting sbow
gronnds In the wand.
There were itvai managers In those days the
same as now, that insisted tlmt it was abso-
lute and certain ruin to the ambitions manager,
but Mr. Forepaugh, devoting all his energies to
his vacation, did not fear for tbe future. Be
knew, and was the first to demonstrate it. that
the public Is willing and anxious to reward great
effort. Up to 1876, tbe Adam FUrepaugh Shows,
the acknowledged leading exhibition enterprise
of the New World, had moved over the country,
traversing every state east of the Bocky Moun-
tains with wagons. It had, however, assumed
such tremendous proportions, that its now opu-
lent proprietor concluded to originate a more
efllclent mode of transportation. He contracted
for and had expressly built on his own plan,
forty ears, each car measuring sixty feet In
length. Henceforth the show traveled exclu-
sively by railroad, thus nearly every year reach-
ing and exhlbltlns In aimoat every city In the
Dmon.
Adam Fbrepangh. as a man am<ngst men,
was known as beinc ahrewd. Incisive. Intense
and cy clonic, as well as loslcal. phllosiqitalcal
and thoroughly Informed, facts oil hia hla.
torlcal magazine of nseful works. He used to
smile at his own success. "I know." he would
say, "bow to select my associates."
It is natural for a big showman, through bis
army of employees to find that the develop-
ment of mankind must be sudden so that the
"make good one" shows an almost instant ex-
eosure upon the film of circus life, and It was
ere that Adam Forepaugh excelled over
many competitors. Be practlcaUy Introduced
to the circus world's work such men as George
Steel, Frank Hyatt, Charles Davis. Bobert G.

Now I do not wish to be misquoted or misun-
derstood In the above statement claiming that
the first services of all the atmve named gen-
tlemen who have become famous In their dif-
ferent lines of duty began with the Adam
Forepaugh Shows, but I do know that It -was
under the "4-Paw banner" that their greatest
life lessons were taught, which enabled them to
accomplish the work that gave to each man his
"sesame" to their present high and nOble poal-
tlons. No matter with what companies these
gentlemen may now be employed-
The brightest days of the Bamnm Shows
can not possibly outshine those of the famous
4-Paw company, in fact, to tell the tmth, the
"4-Paw'8." as a money-maker, almply eclipsed
them aU- Wtthoat - fear of eontradletlon It
may be said that at the time of FOrepangh'a
sale of his Twentieth 'Century Colossns Maug-
erle and Hippodrome Olrcns to the Bailey and
Cole business Interests, the menagerie alone
afforded an opportunity for a close, practical
study of zoology, for It was the finest selec-
tion and collection of tare wUd beasts In exist-
ence and was offered to an Intelligent public as
a living encyclopedia of oatnral history.
Tbere was a special crowd known aa the
"Flat Ftoota" to which Adam Forepaugh be-
longed and was known as a true friend. CTas.

To the Editor of The Billboard:
As tbe American mail goes out to-morrow, anil
with it a vety large list of people bound, for the
tinlted States and Europe, -1 will get busy, and
give you some of the doings on tills side of
tbe world In the amusement line.
Brown and Wilmot, having completed their
engagement with the Brennan Circuit, leave for
the United States on this steamer. Tbcy will
stop over at Honolulu for a month's engagement,
and then go on to the States. Ranee Smith
also .leaves tor the same places and there is a
vety heavy- passenger list by this steamer. The
papers to-day announce that the Kew Zealand
government has just concluded a contract with
the Union Steamship Co. for a four weekly
mail and passenger service to San Francisco, tbe
firat steamer leaving Auckland tor that port on
October 23. This will be a big help to Amer-
icans on this side of the water, as well as to
as there is such a big building boom on In tbis
city at tbe present time, that they cannot begin
to supply tbe bricks for the buildings that are
now being erected. The winter has been the
mildest ever known in this part of tbe world,
and It looks as It ire were to soon be favored
with hot weather.
These things, combined have made bulldlncs
go up by leaps and bounds. There are now be-
ing built In some of the suburb!, some very
fine places for tbe moving picture buslneaa,
and tbere Is also to be built at Uanly. one of
the seaside lesorta here, an amnscment pier
right out Into the waters of tbe Paclllc. It la
safe to say that bad this resort been In tiie
United States. It would have had one thirty
years ago. They are Just waking up out here,
to the fact that this is. of all countries, tho
place for outdoor amusements. Kow It; look*
as If tbey would goi In a bit too strong and
spoil It tor all.
I've found always, either a foU bouse or mighty
near one.
Of course, as I remarked, there are ■ usually
two ways to Jump, and one ordinarily Jumps tbe
wrong way. But I don't believe it's so this
time- Moving picture houses, with their, films
of the recent 500-mile aeroplane race, cross-
country, and other eventnallties, have sbared
thla good fortune, packing their establishments
to file dooris at every performance. - .
VAUDEVILLE'S 3L
An Illustration of the way things are going
Is to be found at the . Vaudeville. There Les
Deux Ecoira (Tbe Two Schools) a revival, com-
menced the' fali season some weeks ago. No one
expected any great erawds, as, tbongh the com-
edy is a deUgbtfiil little altalr. It baa seen two
previous revivals and eadz liad qnlte a nm. Tile
idea was that it should simply serve to let
people know the vaudeville was open, that's
all. Just a sort of curtain-raiser, something to
entertain the few while the many were Jnst
fixing to get started. Tbe house ttas been filled
at each performance and at this date It was
deemed advisable to pat on tbe second revival
eehedoled before the regnlar fall season 'begins,
namely. La Maison de Danses (Tbe Hbnse of
Dances) or mwe properly speakliig, Tbe Dancing

BICE ON THE JOB.
A caller at the Paris office of The BHIboard
this week was H. B. Bice, the well-known
American sbowman, well known both in New
York and Chicago. He is in France to assume
the managerial end of tbe business at Magic
City, the newest, and, what promises to be tbe
biggest summer amusement park in Gurope or
Great Britain. As a matter of fa«t he is al-
ready- on tiie Job and is In active personal super-
vision over a portion of the construction work
at the park, tbe entire business, of course, be-
ing In tbe hands of X. Calvin Brown, star re-
sort builder from tbe borne side of the puddle.
Bice's pictnre appeared In Tbe Billboard some
weeks ago as being ready to leave for Europe
to assnme "his new dotfes. - He 'was formerly a
newspaperman and a good one, Cbfcago papers
especially -having printed many a line from bis

OBSERVATIONS OF T HEf STROLLER
Serious and Frivolous Stories and Facts Told on the. Great and Near Great in the
Amusement Fraternity
The chest development of Cora Youngblood Corson Is conceded as phe-
nomenal, the scientific ' decision of physicians being that she has lungs as
large and powerful as either Jeffries or Johnson. Theatrical and musical pa-
pers have given much space to the sub-
ject from time to time, but any one not
knowing Miss Corson would never sus-
pect that this tall, slim girl, weighing
145 pounds, was possessed of this ex-
traordinary set of noise producers.
Several weeks ago Miss Corson was
in Oklahoma City. While there she
decided to augment her wardrobe by
purchasing a new winter suit, and
having been advised that there was
one particular establishment conduct-
ed by a Hebrew, that made a specialty of ladies' suits, she forthwith hunted
up this place. It happened that the proprietor, being short of help on the
day Miss Corson entered his store, was personally making sales, and when
she made known her desire he began showing her his wares, at the same time
telling her how erood-looklng she was, what a beautiful form she had, and
in otherwise flattering her. Each dress she tried on was in some particular
especially adapted to her complexion or shape; but she wanted to be sure
it suited her before closing a bargain, therefore, the proprietor, seing that
his chatter was of little avail. Anally hauled out a suit which, while It
pleased Miss Corson was somewhat too small for her. As she emerged
from the dressing room, the proprietor said:
"My dear madam, never was a dress made to fit such a. superb form
you have. Look at that dress (hailing a saleslady). Wouldn't she make
a mbdel, though? Oi, yol, such a model!"
But Miss Corson, not able to stand his flattery, or the dress, which was
too tight, any longer, said: "I must get this dress off quick, or It will be torn."
The proprietor laughed, saying: "My dear lady, it would be impossible for
you to tear that dress. It is not as flimsy as yours."
Miss Corson, not at all pleased with this retort, assured him that by
taking a deep breath, she could "rend assunder" his .elegant gown, and offered
to try, with his consent. It was finally agreed that if she could even as
much as rip the garment, he would make her a present of $5.00, in addition
to the dress. A long breath, the sound of ripping goods and buttons flying
here and there, convinced the proprietor that he had lost. After she had
left the store, the proprietor said to one of his clerks:
"Model, hell. She would be better as a bellows in an Iron foundry."
George Atkinson, press agent of the Hagenbeck-Wallace Show, tells this
story and gives his word that it is true:
Tommy Ambrose, of the John Robinson Circus, placed his name on a
hotel register in a small town one
Sunday, and noticing that a number of
railroad men had registered Just above
him and signed "O. R. C." after their
names, he placed the same letters
after his name. When the bill wa.s
paid the clerk charged him but 25
cents, while other circus folks without
the mysterious letters following their
names paid a half a dollar. The hotel
clerk attended the performance the
next afternoon and was surprised
when Ambrose made an announcement with the circus. When Ambrose came
into the hotel for supper, deciding to try a second meal away from the
cook house, the clerk drew back when he threw down a Quarter, and ex-
claimed:
"I thought you were a railroad man, yesterday."
"I don't know how you figured- that out," remarked Ambrose.
. "Why, you registered "O. R. C — Order of Railway Conductors."
"Nothing like It,", replied Ambrose. "O. It. C. means Old Robinson
Circus."
Don Holbrook, familiarly known to a large number of professionals,
haa recently been appointed to the position a:5 Cleveland representative uf The
Billboard. Simultaneously with this appointment, advertising orders from
Cleveland concerns increased. Not
lonK ago he sent us an order from a
grocery concern In his city, which, by
the way. was the first advertisement
of its character to appear in a theat-
rical paper. The advertiser runs a
small, one-clerk grocery, but keeps
open nights and on Sunday for the
accommodation of the profession. He
does not cater to out-of-town trade,
but this fact was not known to the
grocer In Georgia who wrote "for a
quotation on delicatpsse. Holbrook and the Cleveland merchant are how
tiding to And out what flavors this article comes in.
Any performer who has at some period of his life had the pleasure of
playing in a "rube town" know« how utterly devoid the rural manager Is of
any knowledge of stage technique, or the terms used to describe settings or
"props." By way of illustration, we
beg leave to repeat an incident that
recently befell Bromley and Bromley,
While playing a small Indiana town.
This team requires full stage, and it
happened that they were working on
a bill with a single and another act
that also wanted full stage. The man-
ager did not seem to be able to solve
the problem, therefore, one of tho
Bromleys suggested that he change
the single to second on the bill and
have him work "In the street," which would give them a chance to set the
stage. Can you imagine the merriment the manager's reply caused when
he said: "Well, if he works in the street, there won't anybody come In to
■ee the rest of the show."
Hia friends say there Is no cure; the insanity commission believes his
friends, but The Stroller blames only the joy-giving bubble water for the
following letteri sent to his friend. BlUy Boughton:
■ Dear Billy: — At the suggestloii of
Dr. Parker, Harry Lightfoot, Dr. Dor-
an. Bill Gallager. Dr. Atkins. Lone
Star, Soapy Jones, Dr. M. Campbell,
Jack Rhan and Charles .Vllen, I take
the liberty to ask for th«« following
information, which Dr. Lester says
you can furnish, that Is: "iVIiat time
does the 3 o'clock train go out, and
would it be possible for Charley to
come over the river in time with his
load of wood because I think there
has been seven cents taken out of the safe.
"However, we' found them both dead, and Dr. Healy says that by pressing
on the fifth rib it is impossible to tell which died first, but they were both
in Koom 44 when, it happened, and he asked Ma to look at him.
"She said it looked like a scene in a mad house. Then I said it was not
him at all, but the fellow that looked like him.
"It Is my- impression that he drank the poisoned milk whije Kitty and
the baby were out to the photo gallery lo'oking for the coming man and
his body was In such a condition that It looked like a black statue.
"We would have sent for John, but there wasn't any and -the Doctor
shop was closed, so we had to have Bibbs & Bibbs come over to find out who
stole the coat out of Tony the tailor's place.
"Then Dr. Fountain said that possibly Handy Andy was the cause of
it all, because he was a close friend of Razor Jim and caused Sim Dempsey
to get arrested for making fun of the lawyer and the widow.
"If you can let us know at once about this, we won't go to the races, but
just hang up the grip and read the last line over again. Tours truly,
"THOMAS H. DALTON."
Taylor Holmes, who plays Sammy Fletcher in James Forbes' comedy.
The Commuters, tells the following story of a darkey, who was haled by bis
wife before a police magistrate in a southern city, charged with non-support:
The judge began to : Interrogate him.
He said:
"Henry, why don't you suppo't your
wife?"
"Well, boss," said the prisoner, "I
jes' tell yer. Dis woman o' mine is
allays after me fer money. Las' Sat-
urday she come to me fer two dollai-s.
De Satv'day befo' she strikes me fer
two dollars an" stx bits. De Satu'day
befo' she was to me fer a dollar and a
half, an' de Satu'day befo' dat fer
three dollars." "Well," replied the Judge, "what did she do with the money?"
"I dunno, boss," answered the darkey, "I ain't give it to her yet."
The Stroller wishes to acknowledge the kindness of a Hot Springs, Ark.,
daily paper, which recently published the following in its colifmns:
"Say, mister, what is a billboard?" asked a messenger boy of a citizen
on Markham street the other day.
"That is a billboard across the
street on that vacant lot," said the
man, as he pointed to the big sign of a
local business house.
"Hully gee!" exclaimed the lad,
"but dat actor guy wos stringin' me!
He give me a dime and told me to run
up to de New Capital and git him a
billboard. I'm goln' to go aout' wid
dis dime," and he started Into a cor-
ner drug store to get an ice cream
soda, when the man happened to think of the showman's Journal and directs
the boy to the proper place to get a copy of it.
One of the members of Jack Singer's Behman Show Is the proud father
of a boy of 9, whom he regards as a prodigy. ■ Lon Hascall and others in
the company regard the man's talk as a joke and encourage him In It. ' A.
day or two ago Hascall was In the lobby of a theatre when the man came In,
looking deeply engrossed in thought.
"What's the matter, old man he queried. "Nothing wrong with that
wonderful kid. Is there?"
'•Do you know, we are going to consult a specialist about him," replied
the doting father.
"Why, he seems to be perfectly healthy and rugged. Is he ill?"
"No, but we've asked him again and again what he wants to be when
he grows up and he never said that he wants to be a clown In a circus or a
railroad engineer."
While at Memphis, Tenn.. a few years ago. Walter C. Rose, of the team
of Williams and Rose, "Those Picture Show Musicians," heard what he
considers quite an original remark. About one o'clock in the morning Mr.
Rose was sitting in his room reading,
when he heard a fire engine coming up
the street. Hearing it stop In front of
the hotel, he opened the door, looked
out in the hall and, to his surprise,
discovered It was his hotel that was
on fire. •
Hastily packing his belongings,
Mr. Rose made a dash down to the
street below. While standing across
the street watching the firemen trying
to extinguish the flames, one of the
hotel employes was noticed standing by bis side, said employe being a col-
ored waiter, known aa "Number 'I<even." Just at that moment tbe root
fell In. Turning to " 'Leven." Rose said: "Well. 'Leven. what do you think
of It?" The "colored ge'man" took a good look at the flames reaching toward
the sky, and said: "Boss, boss; that buildin' am sure inflamed."

contracts to show In Arsenta. Ark., jost across
the river rrom Uttle Bock. This, It Is nnder-
•tood, was done to keep from paying the eices-
nve license the city o( Little Hock wonid have
charged them.
It Is also nnderstood that the City of Argenta
granted them a free license and allowed them
to me their streets for a parade. The clrcns
applied to the mayor of Uttle Rock to allow
them to parade their streets bnt Little Bock
woald not allow them to parade unless they
paid $200. This they refhsed to do, and the
clrcns representative stated that the Rlngllngs
would never again play at Uttle Bock on ac-
connt of the treatment received.

stead of uttle Rock. It is understood that

Ot charging t SOO as charged by U ttle Bock.

WHO CAUGHT THIS FISH?
(Continued from page IX)
As the crew of the dingy headed by Bradna
came piling np the beach, a startled lot of cir-
cus faces appeared from tbe doors and windows
of. i the natatorimn, from entrances to tents,
mm stake and chain wagons and from beneath
a score of side walls. Charles Hutcbinson,
treasorer of the show, was so scared tbat lie
tried to get Into Fred OeWoIf 's- trousers and suc-
ceeded well enonsli to make a hasty exit from
the bathboose possible.
"What's the matter ant tbete!" yelled Hot-
chinson as soon as he conid make himself
heard.
"I've canght a whale," shoated Bradna, jnmp-
ing np and down like a jack rabbit and at the
same time emitting strange and ontlaudish yells,
Willie he slapped the flabby side of an animal
which looked like a cross lietween one side of
an aeroplane and a section of sidewalk.
The creature appeared a pale pink In color
and was of no particolar shape although its
ontllnes were vaguely reminiscent of a bock-
wheat cake, a Maine school ma'am's .waist and
an American Ijcague baseball after Ty Cobb has
■watted it. At any rate it was three or fotn:
feet long and quite as broad and didn't look
at all like a fish.
-"How did yon catch it?" asked "Hutch."
edging slightly in the direction of a stake and
chain wagon.
"With a hook an' line!" gasped Bradna.
"Seated aft in the good ship "Hardly Ever,"
We were about two leagnes out to sea and
a-skimmin' merrily along In 81 fathoms o' the
bluest brine you ever saw when suddenly I
felt a ierk and bracin* myself against the main
mast I told the mate to put about, get out
the harpoons, lower No. 1 boat and kill the
beast before she stove in the ship. I had jnst
finished — "
"Don't listen to bis ravin's, Mr. Hutch," said
"Spot" Jerome as be noncbalantly flickered a
llsh scale the size of a silver dollar from his
left tbimib; "I'm teninp yon the truth wben
I tell yon tbat I yanked this horrible monstros-
ity, this cantakerons creature, from the murby'
depths of yon ocean. I stabbed faim four times
with a butcher knife before I could make him
bite the hook and even after he did condescend
to nibble 1 would bare lost him for Bradna being
asleep in the front end of the boat if Z iiad
not bethought me of those good old days when
I was a cowpuncher in Texas."
Mr. Hutchinson made an Ineffective attempt
to escape by diving under a side wall. He was
bronght to a standing position by Jerome, wbo
continned his reminiscences while Bradna ex-
borted a constantly increasing crowd In front of
. the cook house. -
"Grabbing the neatest bslyard." said "Spot."
"I withdrew my sword from the fish's Intestines
Ions enough to cut from the rigging a fair-sized
lariat. With my left hand 1 looped it (Bradna
being stiU asleep In the bold) and when I
threw the coil I was not in the least surprised
to find that I had lost none of my old-time cun-
ning. The noose settled fairly over his tall,
which he had considerately lifted out of the
water just as I tlxrew. Hurriedly wakening the
rest of the crew I pnlled .blm into the side of
the steamer and by the combined aid of. six-
teen passengers and twenty-two sailors got him
aboard!"
- "tlarl" ahrleked Fred Derrick so' lond that
Hotchlnson's cry for help was not .andlble ten
feet away. "Uarl Uarl llarl I caught this
whale! I. Fred Derrick, with tbe aid of Patty
Frank and Hermann Dinns landed him I Bradna
and Jenynie were rowing t^^ boat so bow conlcl
th^/have cariisht— :
. '*!' thought this was first ft sail boat then a
Steamer,", interrupted Dr; Grable defOy extract-
ing a' Saturday ^tBtoiIiU; Post trom Charley
Carroll's pocket- '
"It 'was a row hoatP! screamed Derrlefc,- "and
I caught It!"
'*7on mean yon eaogU tbe nnr lioat and
boaght the flshr' langbed Ed. Sblpp.
The laugh that followed was punctured by
the arrival of a fussy little fellow evidently
not a showman.. He seemed laboring under
some severe mental excitement as he elbowed
his way through the circle and confr(mted
Jerome.
"Hey, yon!" . said he menacingly, "come
across with that two-fifty! Do you think I
give away fish like this? I could have sold
tiim to your cook bouse for four dollars! Come
across with the coin!"
In the excitement that followed Mr. Hutch-
inson escaped and sought the sequestered front
end of the red wagon.
"That fish," he soliloquized as be counted
twenty-dollar gold pieces, "was a skate. I
wonder If there/isn't something In a name."
ADAM FOREPAUGH'S LIFE.
(Continned from page 13.)
Gayler, John J. Nathan, Adam Quick, Col. Chas.
Whitney, George B. Brouson, Van Orden, Hyatt
Frost, Xewis J. June, George F. Bailey, and
the Van Ambergs . composed -the outfit, all of
whom are now dead and passed over the road
to the land where sawdust, canvas, stake and
chain ontfits are unknown.
During the traveling . season Mr. Forepaugb
was always found with the show. Seated In
an arm-chair behind his doorkeepers, bis ruddy
face and genial smile affected the scene as does
merry sunshine. Possessed of stalwart physique,
perfect bealtb, tremendoos powers of endur-
ance, and great Industry, he dispensed business
rapidly and without fatigue. Happy at home
with a bright and cheerful family, worth mil-
lions, admired by the public, and respected and
beloved by his friends and neighbors, Adam
Forepaugh lacked no essential to make him
envied.
The late Judge H. P. Ingalls, of Bellefon-
taine, Ohio, had the first museum, now called
side sliows. with the Adam Forepaogh's Show
and after leaving the show bnsinesa In the
seventies, be became superintendent of the Cin-
cinnati Zoological Gardens, under tbe manage-
ment of Julian Dexter, tbe president. Mr.
Forepaugh'a only partner in the circus business
was John O'Brien, who, on account of the
enormous salary paid the famous Dan Rice,
■withdrew from said partnership.
In ISSl, there was a tri-comered battle of
real events In the circus field. The contestants
being W. C. Conp's circus with a hippodrome,
Bamum, Bailey and Hutchinson, tbe first year
of this firm, and the first that Mr. Bailey had
secured the Bamum name. Adam Forepaugb
had the $10,000 beauty, Ijouise Montague.
B. F. Keith, his first appearance in show
business, was a great friend and adviser of
Mr. Forepaugh.
There was a continuous clash in all the large
cities for nearly forty weeks by these three
institutions, two of them merely circuses and
menageries, the other a great show. Coup's Hip-
podrome. Adam Forepaugh not only breasted
the continuous hurricane, but topped one mil-
lion dollars, (*1,000,000) in receipts, the first
company to ever reach that figure and the only
one since, in a single season. For the sale of
the beauty's photographs alone . the . sum of
S:uiO,000 was realized. _. , ^
Messrs. Flfer and Phillips of Bloomlngton,
Illinois, were Adam Forepaugh'a lawyers. They
caused the Bamum people to pay $3,000 damages
to Forepaugh, $2,500 their fees, and an agree-
ment to divide the circus territory In future,
to release their people who were then detained
in tail four days. Thus ended the greatest
circus war of the past gone days. WUl history
repeat itself in the coming generation? I wonder.
John Worland, leaper, with the Adam Fore-
paugh Circus, at New Haven, Conn., accom-
plished the triple somersault, October 9, 1884.
"TODY" HAMILTON REPLIES.
Baltim<»re, Md., Sept. 26, 1910.
Editor The Bill.boaTd,
Cincinnati, Ohio.
Sir — ^In a recent communication to The Bill-
board from Messrs. Lowrie and Block, publishers
of the Elgin (in.) News-Advocate, it is stated
or quoted that a Mr. Carey, whom I neither
know nor ever heard of, remarked to the bus-
iness manager of that paper, " ToOf' Hamilton
was out of the business, because he was to lib-
eral with the press." ^Hie remark Is the reverse
of truth. -
I am out of the hnsiness owing to one cause
and three good reasons, viz.: The death of my
thirty-five-years' friend, the late James A. Bai-
ley; my voluntary resignation and there being
no longer any managers in the clrcuS field I
can either associate with or engage with and
their inability to pay my salary of $6,000 and
expenses, with |2,500 added.
ATI unbroken engagement of twenty-seven
consecutive years negatives any and every re-
mark thai obscure individuals may make con-
cerning m^, as the firm I represented during
that period of time knew whether 1 was too
liberal or otherwise. It having to pay for what
I contracted. But as that same firm somehow
contrived to harvest; about ten millions of dol-
lars and safely store it in Its granary. I can't
beUeve any fault was found with my liberality
to tlie press.
If other shows as well could profit n tithe by
a too-liberal-to-Ihe-press man, 'twould be an
excellent move, I should imagine, to engage one
right now and thus avoid clashing, with the
newspapers, tbe factors and forces causing the
attendance at all shows.
God f<»sive ns the sins of onr merriment.

Miss Julia Marlowe, while traveling In Eng-
land, was taken to task by a doctor for her
death scene In Romeo and Juliet. It was In
Pittsburg, and the doctor, wbo was tremen-
dously Impressed by her actfng, was forttuate
enough to meet her at a reception next day.
He began to tell her of the pleasure her per-
formance had Riven blm.
"I admire your Juliet profoundly." said he,
"but — pardon me. Miss Marlowe— don't yon
know that the body does not atUfcu for at least
six hours after death?"
"Now, doctor," replied Miss Marlowe, !a the
drawl she reserves for such speeches, "do yon
think that I am going to keep my audience
waiting for me to stiffen ?"

TBB S(3ALA'S PLANS.
P. L. nera and Kngene Bsroa, two of the beat
liked makers of musical farce comedies known
to Parislana, have concocted a piece which they
eaU Le Olrenit de Leste, the name being a take-
off on the title of the last aeroplane race in
France orer a SOO-mBe coarse, called Le Cir-
cuit de I'Eit (The Saltern Cirenlt). The title
of tile llec-Beroa allow, : Le Ciienlt da Laate,
meaaa aa entirely dlKereat thing and as nearly
aa I can tianalate it, it la fteneta for The Im-
piDper Cirenlt. It ia a very luppy name and
Is sore to bring oa a mail on the box-oOIce by
people who wish to "go" tliia aplcy and gin-
gery route. The antbora aay It ia neither an
operette, nor a terae, nor a fairy play, aer a
plain comedy. It Is all tliat. In one; Therefore
It is something dlBerent.
After this "aftalr" — as I abail call It for
want of a better name— the Seals will have a
new rerne by the antbora of laat year's big snc-
ceas at this same houae: Michel Can* and
Andre Barde. Bdmee Farart will be the partic-
ular star in tbla laat. After tUs sbaU haveliad
Ita nm, the management ia apeaking of a lerl-
ral of Paris le Bon Jace,'atter It baa l>een re-
viaed ud practically remade by de Vlerar Oail-
latet (Lot* Watefau' aathots) and Olaude Xer-
La Olrealt de Leate opena thla week. ;

tade. Lea ATcnturea of OaTroche, was slde-
trscked for the time being. The new piece,
Michael Sttagoif, waa then put on and in the
presence of about 80O- policemen, all-went well.-
It had been announced that the diacharged
atrlkers, who had been replaced by non-union
men, were going to stop the sbow by keeping up
a. dUtarbanee at :tbe- front of the house. As
this sort of tUag has bappened bere In Paria
inme than once, the police protection waa eoo-
alderedDeeeaaaty....
I fancy, liowever, tliat Manager Foatanes has
got things ia control now. Be baa been toler-
ably badly treated by hla men. ttaoogh whether
B* or tile men were .to blame I. cannot say. Bat

baring presented him with a.aom and heir in
that cl<7. and as tbis took place aome three

at an early date. Mr. oarrlsoa sends ilia n-
garda to absent friends In the States, j^ me^

McOratb and Page, banJoIstsT arrived on tbe
last Tanconrer steamer and. at once. apened.«at
tbe National. They han made good fiom "the.

just dosing at this flieatre and will aail on

management;' Mr. 'Brennaii ma "Americin art-
ists arrlTlng by. each 'Vancouver steamer now,
and is well pleased -with all that he has brought
oat up to the present.
Mr. 3. C- Williamson is at th« present time
in Barope, or waa at the lateat adneea and baa
gut together a big company tor grand opera in
these parta, -with Mme. Melba as tlw star. All
hla vaiioua companies are playing to great bnsl-
ness here and In New Zealand. J. C. William-
son has bad Ills badness floated into a limited
company with a capital of tl.O0O.(X)O, and It is
sow .known as.]'. C. Wllllamnon. Umlted. It
loOIA aa It they were preparing to meet the
ever-gtoirtng eami«titloii tbatls springing op. on
this side of the world.'
Clarke and VayncU have aoeceeded iMOOnd the
. most sanguine expeetatlona, ud they are
nigbtly retnalng money at tbeir Oieatre, tbe
Cdterlon. In tbla city, where they are now pro-
ducing The Arcadians. The aame reporta aa to
their Melboame business is fully . borne out
by facta. Mr. Haynell la at tbe preaent, in
London, and they are also to bring out an en-
tirely new company for some of the new produc-
tlons they iiave pnrcbased in tbe London market.
At the Theatre Boyal, 7. C. W., Ltd., Is pre-
senting to their patrons nigbtly. Australla'a
favorite, MIsa Nellie Stewart, in When Knight-
hood Was In nower. and tbe last ten sights of
her. season at tbla theatre is announced. This
company la to be followed by Allen Hamilton's
OramaUc Company, in Cvde Fitch's play.
Lover's Xsne. Jliis Kdlte Stewsrt Is giving a
matinee to raise $5,000 to be expended in tlw
pnrchaae of radinm for the Sydney Boepital,
and aa it sow looka, she 'WtU not only succeed,
but ahe wlU obtain more tban that, aa tbe
house Is all sold out, some of the boxes having
brought as high as $50O for this performsnce.
On Saturday last she took her motor car and
went out for an hour and sold nearly tliree hun-
dred tickets, at not less than gl.TS each. Aa
She tQld them no change -would he given, many
paid as bigh as IS for a aeat and thought Uttle
ot It at that. That reminds me that Mr. Hugh
3.' Ward,' in Welllngtoo, New 'Zealand. laat
week, took it Into his head to help raise gZS,-
000 dollars for tbe Wellngton BospitsI, snd ss
some of the dergy has spoken -very strongly
agalnat the play that be was prodneing, he
himself donated fSOO to the fund and then went
out la tlw poniing rain and aold tickets and
handed over to the fund 660 pounds, which to
put it roughly into dOUats Is $2,800. This is not
so bad for one day'a vrork. Tbe Showing was
more than the sky pilots ot tbe berg bad done,
or ever 'wonld do, tor the same canse.
3. C Williamson, at Her Majesty's Tlieatre,
Is prodneing The Orchid to S. B. O. nightly.
Hr. Barry BIckards, at the Ttvtdi, have the
Kremo Family (I0> aa headltners, snd business
is good; all tbe others are the same as 1 men-
tioned In my laat letter, but there was am addi-
tion to the bill on Saturday nigbt ot tbe Bay-
mong Trio, who are playing a return season
with tbla company. At the Palace Theatre
West's picturer . are in their last nights^ as
they go back to the Glaciarlnm <a tbe lOtb
prox, and -wilt be followed at this tlieatre by
Allan Hamnton'a and Max Maxwell's Dramatic
Company, In Benry Petlt'a A Woman'a Bevenge,
opening, on the 10th prox, foe a long sessotu
The Victoria Picture Ball Is under new man-
agement and since the change they liave so
causa for complaint In regard to the pattonsge
bestowed on their enterprise.
Spencer's Lyceum Ball ia doing good bnainess
and Mr. and Mrs. Spencer are now on tlwir
way back to Sydney. They are doe here on
the Bth prox. ~ '
J. D. WUllama' Amusement Comnaay are
breaking alt records In the H. P. line, and I
think that it can safely be said, tbat they are
showing to more people dally tban any plctnre
show m this dty. Programs are changed twice
-weekly and all the most up-to-date lUms are
screened. Well, they deserve to get on. for
they stick closely to business, and iwt only
that, they hustle all tlie time. I am Infonned
that they are running some suburban shows,
as well. as the New Coolnlal Theatre, and I am
also iaforaaed tliat they have aevetsl new nro-
leeta nnder -way and that tbey -wUl soon, culmi-
nate into reality. Good luck to aU tiu boys.
Is ' all .tl^e bairin I wlsb tbem. There is a bnnch
of reel genuine Americans at this place, and
yon can hear American spoken with all the
Idiomatie expressloas thrown in, -without extra
ebarge, and it Is good for we poor benighted
Americans who have been so long from the
land of our birth to go down once Is a while
and get., some new. idioms and phrases to in-
ereaae our vocabulary, and keep It up-to-date.
All tbe boya. send regards to abaent Irlenda in
th^ p. 8. and guess that they are aatialled that
tbHT'Sre on a good wicket out here.
_^The Great western snd The International
Film ' Kxcbangefc: are run by these up-to-date
Americans; 'and they are doing all right. I have
yet to hear an tmcompHmentary remark-^aade

twenty feet from the entrance to the Glsdarlum

4te haa also a very fine show out at Newtown,

In the City. Although bunt too late for big
business Isat season, he has done a good steady
business all the winter.
The New Alhambra has gone back' to vande-
vUle and pictures, as well as iUnstrated songs
and la d<ung a good bualaesa. Tha» are ao
many abowa here now that I cannaA begla to
notice them an and never malce. any: attempt' to
pay a visit to them all, for yon wonlff rednire
a high-speed motor csr to do ao, and-then many
of tbem do not make any attempt to obtain a
world-wide reputation.
So far, no alms have reached this side, of tbe
Johnson-Jeffries fight, and It la not at' all cer-
tain that they will be allowed to exhibit them
if they do come to band, as the Wowsers have
set up an awful howl. The electiona wBl take
place in a few weeks, and the foxy politician
haa got to placate all parties. They want to
not only hunt with the honnda. but nqi vrtth the
fox as well. A good Job it would be, if nine-
tenths of them were taken oat to. South Head
and dropped tbem Into the sea. What wlth-the
half bouday, pure food, and heaven only knows
what other laws tbey have pasaed, life is get-
ting- one race to dodge the laws and try and
live In peace at the aame time. The priests and
the parscms have far too much -to do -with tbe
laws of this lajid, and if we go dry at tbe com-
ing contest at the polls, this wHl be a good
country to get out or.
There has jnat ^een a fine rink tor roller
skating opened at North Sydney, and Satnr-
day'a paper states tlmt there ia to be built
right In the heart of the city, one of the largest
and the finest rinks soath of tlie equiftor.
The Bessleg o' th' Bam Band have given a
series of fifteen concerts at the town haU (rent
gl25 nightly), and are going to play a rettim
season here. Why in the world Soosa does not
come out here snd rake In some ot tbe good
masnma on tnia side of the water passes my
comprehension. Beavena knows that I have
tluows out bints enough to him in the paat six
years, but be has made no move that I am aware
of. If they only atop to think tbat the winter
aeaaom In the U. 8. ia the summn'aeaaim here,
and that oar scmmer is fully nine monfha long,
tbey would see the golden opportunity.
Antonio Ddwes baaaed through thla city on
Saturday last, and she Is now doing the smalls.
At that she gets top prices and she Is one ot
the most beloved it not the most beloved of ssy
artist that visita these shores.
Now for another class of amnaement that can
scoop in a pile of money here, and that la a
good troupe of Jubilee singers, after tlie Flsk
order. They must be good and strong musically.
Now is the time for new faces to. come and give
the people a toodi of nod: Jubilea siiujliw and
one or two good -vaudeville tnma eODdilae£ But
let me add a tew words to these teaaarks. It
colored artists come over, they -wiU have to cough
op £100 stig. (gSOO) esch tbat tbey wUl get
out of the country within a certain time. When
they leave they wiU get their dsnoait back.
We have a colored aUens restriction act In
force here and It Is very rigidly enforced too.
There are a good many Australian artists that
are making tracks for the United States and as
soon ss I get the namea bunched tmether, I
will give them to the readera ot Tbe Billboard.
Aa it U, I think tbat I have taken op aboat all
the apace the editor can spsre me, sad.so wiU
bring my letter to s^ dose. The seaami la now
coming on for high pitch artlats. One other
thing I could recommend to cross over to tliis
side with and that Is a good street peanut Joint.
Such a thing as hot tamales are unknown on
tills Side. Another thing that I -want to Im-
Sress on the readers of The BUItMard ia tlila
act; that there are many lines ot street goods
that hustlers can make money with her* in the
winter moBtba Ot the Statu, as tbat la our
This momlng'a paper atates that last night
was the coldest night this -winter, tbe ther-
mometer going down to 42.6 degrees F. so you
can see bow cold -we get it in Sydney in the
middle of -winter. -When yon speak of -winter
to tlioae like the -writer, that were used to a
good old New England winter -with the glass
monkeying round 36 degrees or soma TO degrees
below frecxing it makes yon laugh..
To the man that bad the pluck and the energy
to come out here and sell good -irett-routed pea-
nnta and hot aalted popcorn,. freah,
nnts, etc, in the winter time, there la bis money
to bis made as there has never been seen sny-
thing like this on this slde ot the water. One
man who brought two floss candy maeblnea. made
a good pile and thsn sold his two machines to
(me of the Isrgest firms In tills country for
nearly $2,000. and went back to the States well
sattsfied -with his venture.
.another thing. There la not an American
soda ftmntabi here that to i^p-to-date, and were
tbey to serve the American people irtth tlm
drlnka that they serve here, they wotfld not be
in bnslnesa for two -weeks, tiiere are aome
fountains here that are selling tbonssnds of
drinks dally In tbe summer time, but what.'wonid
a good amart American 'firm do, that aold all
tbe np-to-date American drlnka served In flmt-
claaa American style. Personally, I only wish
that then was one of that Una here. Tbey.

In the coarse of his review of this produc-
tion, James 0*0000611 Bennett. , itto presides
at the Dramatic Desk of the ClUcago Becnd-
Herald. said:
"Evetybody has heard snatches of tJmt
smashing ensemble, blended of love's long-
ings and martial ardor, that the cafe or-
chestras have done their .worst to spoil, but
nobody can really be said to have heard It
nntll he has followed De Novellis and his
men ; and -the stagefnl of 'Whitney singers
through- it., it lifted every^iody In .Ills seat
last night Ud wrought such a demonstration
as lias, not been heard in a Chicago playhouse
since Hie weeks some four seasons ago when
.tlie' Italians, used to riot nightly over the
acting, of their counti3mian,: Ennete Novelll
when he came amOng ns, ,
f^ng before the dosing' bars of the episode
of Nadbia's detection had been played the ap-
planse burst forth, subsiding iinlckly, though,
because the people eonld not bear to miss one
exhilarating note.. But \rhen tbe end had
come, and the picture of the Bulgarian vniage
splendors had dissolved, the handclapplng and
the shontlng swept townrd tii-: stage, .again,
and the curtain was ra!ped a dozen — 4fteen—
maybe t^renty — tlraei». -■■'^ the principals of the
cast beamed their viij^hted acknowledgment.
There was notblDi; for It hot a speech, snd It
Is probable that the audience wotdd have
liked nothing half so well as to ha've seen the
gray-haired Kovelils. who bad carried singers
and orchestra tfaroufzh tbp finale with snch ex-
traordinary gnsto and such unerring distinc-
tion."
Frederic Hatton. on the Chicago Evening Post,
makes the f olloWinfc remarks:
"Cliicago has seen and capltnlated. Tbe
Straus opera iKmffe now at the Garrick is un-
doubtedly to have snch a saccess as no other
maslcal play has had here with the possible
exception of The Merry Widow."
In speaking of tbe score, Mr. Hatton said:
"Oscar Straus, son of the TTIennese waltz king,
has written a perfect score of exgnislte beauty
and rhythm. The melodies are triumphant in
tbeir tone coloring, and express marvelously tbe
gamut of emotions which Is run In the little
play. The waltz of all waltzes, not barring
that other which has been following ns about
for three years In barrel organs, sings and
throbs through all of the three acts. Tbere
ate . two dnets of rare haiinony. The Chocolate
Soldier and That Would : Be Lovely. >The Let-
ter Is that rare - thing, a . novelty in .love songs,
and at the end of the second act there Is
a llnale that nimr fails to sweep tlie audience
off Its feet, or; to tie more exact, ont of Its
orchestra, 'balcony and gallery chairs."
Following is an ezcetpt from tbe leriew of
Percy Hammond, of the Chicago Trlbnne:
"The -proceedings were . so tborooshly delight-
ful tbat It Is possible : for the moment to
forget one's awe of Mr. Bernard Shaw, who
docs not approve of K. and to declare It nn-
offlclfllly the most enjoyable combination of
song and story that has reached this frontier
since tbe halcyon days of Gilbert and Sulli-
van. After the melodiously solicitous finale
to tbe second act, those present Indulged In a
prolonged and earnest demonstration of maai-
ures, the like of which we can not find In our
Inextenslve experience In theatrical romance
with tunes." ■
Constance Skinner, of tbe CUcago. American,
said: ' ■ - ■
"Amid roars of applause The Chocolate Sol-
dier registered success , on the occasion of the
Chicago opening at the Qarrlck."
In the Chicago Dally Journal, O, Ii. Hall op-
ened his review with the following para-
graph:
"Constant improvement, in the quality 6(
anything ultimately brliiga something ai>-
proachlng perfection. The constant betterment,
through three or four seasons, or. tbe type of
entertainment called comic opera, bas eventa-
ated In The Chocolate Soldier, a melodlsatlon
of a satirical Shavian comedy. The score is a
masterwork: the atory lends itself beautlfnlly
to the uses ot opera bonffe. nils delightful
entertainment was faultlessly projected at the
Garrick last nigbt. and an audience that
filled the playhouse was rapturously lifted to
the seventh heaven of delight: Tlie. ayiatotj
who flew over- the Alps never rose as high
as the enthusiasm . of the Oarrlck's -;1.400."^

most players struggle so long to acquire, and
most often never acquire. She was at her
best when acting vis-a-vls with that veteran
artist. Charles A. Stevenson, whose dean^ut
performance seemed to offer oppoaltlon that In-
spired her. . ».
"There are many good things in nto Qim>
biras, bnt they are not ekilHully assemMed.
There are admirably constructed and amy writ-
ten scenes, but they are nsed to bolster up
evil teachings and to give point to false doc-
trines. They enliven a narrative in which the
sympathy Is wrongly placed, and - this misap-
plication ot sympathy will greatly lower tiie
play In the public's esteem. It is -fortunate
for the play, however, that the author's finsl
misjudging of the ethical valnes of bis story
Is deferred nntll tiie very last scene,"-
Those employed to Interpret this production
are George Nash. Charles Stevenson, 'Willlaan

coDfilctIng with similar acts with more sensa-
tlonul lepntaUon playing Chicago recently. A
t>etter act than Gmber's -4.nimals to clo«{e the
show 'wonld be bard to find in any locality,
their revue of trained horses, dogs and ele-
phants being the largest and heaviest In ex-
istence. This combination, topped by Jack Nor-

The Actors' Union served notlee -oa the West-
em YandeviUe Managers' Association that the
agreement between them and the Union will be
terminated at the end ot thirty days, as
agreed In the contract, owing to the feeling
tbat tbe Western Tandevllle people have not
dealt fairly 'with organized labor. This means
that unless amicably settled at a future meet-
ing, wblcb bas already been ordered, the West-
era Vaudeville Managers' Association will be
branded as .anfalr.
The bill at the Academy of Music last week
was composed of some very clever artists; in
fact, the bill was ' one of the very best pre-
sented at the -Academy this season. Mlas Julia

No Cause for Panic
The struggle that is going on In the motion picture field Increases, in
spectacular interest from week to week. The Motion Picture Patents Com-
pa ny m aintains Its original policy of sawing wood. The interests known as
the Independents and which comprise the Motion Picture Distributing &
Sales Company, with a taalf-dozen or ten msAufttcturers, and' half as many
foreign manufacturers allied under their banner, protest that they wre gain-
ing ground. In the meantime the exchange man and his coterie of exhibitors
are on the alert. They are watching the struggle with bated breath. The
turn of the balance' one way or the 'other may mean ruin, elimination, de-
struction.
Naturally this condition does not beget confidence. It is conducive of
:a state of pseudoi-pwlc that bolda down the orders oC the exchanges, limits
he out-put of tbe: mabufacturers, and to change to figures throws a wet
blanket on the whole business.
It is an Instance of the film game's having followed the course of other in-
dustries In this cpiintry In developing too fast. This period of uncertainty, of
:|waverlng between, an Ihcllhattqn to take Opportunity by the fore^top and
fear lest siich radical progression might lead to disaster, is the natural con-
sequence of the past five years of Unsystematic growth, of untrained develop-
,ent. ■ *•■■'.,'. . ■, '.
Both factions In the motion picture field are working to the same goal-
s' reduction- to business principles, a synthetical aUgnment' of .'principles, a
favlng of the business from Itself and from the results of selfishness In those
who have got In during the boom and are working the vein while It lasts.
Just now we axe hearing a lot about conservation of resources. : Conserva-
tion of resources -in thci motion picture business^ w ^cactly. the principle
upon which the Integral factors of the/Motion Picture Patents Company com-
bined several yean ago. Naturally ttibre . was dlssratlon and- the dissention
developed; Into Insurrection. Now the insurrectionists have combined sutid
taken oh adherents. Cohservatl of the resources of the motion picture
business IS their object also.
In reiUIty there Is ho c»uM popularity of motion pictures
b increaslns;wlth; the people. The quality of films In subject aind fsubstuice
Is being, enhsAced both u regu^ the Patents Company and the Salbs Com-
pany out-put. It Is true that competition has reduced the profits, but the
exhibitor who has a good location, the distributor who has a fixed clientele,
is sure to receive. big Inter^t on his Investnieht. -
The man who Is In the i^une, and who Is In right, heed have no fear for
the future. The e:^hlbltor should not idlow the Interest 'of the struggle between
manufacturers to xUvert his attention from bis own end of the business. He Is
concerned only In getting the films that will please his patrons best, iuid the
source of his supply may be : deteimlned upon this : prlncd^
Those who have followed the 'course of the advance in the motion pic-
|!ure business during the past few years have observed a steady and definite
development of system and order. ' Thero Is no reason to believe that this
development will not continue. This little irresponsible .«diIbItor Is bedng
driven out of the business, to be sure, but there is little excuse for an exhibi-
tor who has been In the business any length of time to be small and irrespon-
sible unless he Is so by nature. Many a man whb opened In a store room , a;
few years ago now owns his theatre and has reason to be proud of his pos-
■easlon. He has the confidence of his patrons and his balance Is on the right
side of the ledger.
It Is only the echo of the fight that comes down to the exhibitor. He is
dealing with the public on one hand and the exchange on the other. ~Wltb
the proper exercises of care to present the best pictures he can procure, to
Iceep his theatre up-to-date in condluot and equipment, he. can attain to that
peace of mind that characterises the successful shop-keeper or the successful
merchant In any line of business.
The buslnen lis all right. I,et confldence be the watchword.
The Hernut and tli«
Some men ara. at their best When they are alone: others; require the
influence of the crowd for the liuptratlon and expression of their highest and
truest sentiments. Neither of these types Is normal. It Is the man whose
mental balance is so securely Axed,, that he is equally capable of feeling and
expressing under divers circumstances, whose poise Is so substantial that
.nothing Influences It either to one extreme or the other— it is he who cbn-
nitutes the beau-ideal of Intellectual immutability.
J Taking this unimpressionable, quality as the standard, a predtavbaition to
«everle almost Invariably marks the unobtrusive, allwlt the uncomwutlonal.
thinker— the thinker who Is unmoulded to the world's bpihlions, who ohafw
snder the yoke of mental discipline, who abhors the petty conventions and
the blithsome siiperficIaUty of society, and is regardless of what that same
society thinks and says of blm. Usually he is sentimental without knowing
that he is so. It is the sentimental strain in him that superinduces his silent
and solitary meditations. He Is happiest when alone, and yet he Is ever sad,
for to him sadness Is not synonymous with unhappiness; indeed the moods
are the antithlses — ^the two poles — of his experience.
On the other hand the egotist thrives and flourishes In the midst of pomp
and circumstance. He loves the Umellght of conspiculty. He is happiest on
parade, and he Is usually on parade when there is one other spectator besides
himself. With the nightly snulBng of his candle he ceases to live, to all in-
tents and purposes, resuscitation coming with his sallying forth mornings, or
with the performance before his wife at the breakfast table, the degrree of his
pleasure derived therefrom, and the entire extent, indeed, of his marital
felicity depending on the enthusiasm she manifests for his foibles and crotch-
ets, her fervor or her passiveness in commending his virtues. He spends his
days deceiving himself before the world, and Inside his own -home his wife
assists him in the process.
The hermit is happy in his own way, the poseur Is happy In his. .,Ijet us
reflect what the world thinks of them.
The world dislikes the taciturn and retiring man because It does not un-
derstand him, and believes that he Is either a weakling too diffident to. stand
forth for the inspection of his creed (If, indeed, it gives him credit for having
a creed or a code at all), or it feels that because he holds a secret of life not
patent to ordinary natures, he Is secretly laughing at it and is resentful.
The. egoUst la .equally disliked by the world which laughs . at him secretly,
mimics his trivial conceits behind his back, and tolerates hUn with good grace
or bad according to time, place and circu m sta n ce. ;
Side by side in the world the. hermit and the. egotist both labor against a
handicap. -but the hermit has the greater chance of success — ^that is, If suc-
cess in the degree that It may come to either of these abnormal natures. The
egotist fs swayed by prejudice, by false pride, by what not of vanity and petty
conceit. It stands between him and his business Interests; it steps In where
Its absence would lend greater advantages. , -
So the normal nature enters the race of life In -better condition. Its
chances are beitter throughout. _^
Normality Is as much to be cultivated as any other virtue. Themoxal
Is obvious. -
Aviation Meets not .Profitable.
Nowhere, outside of Prance, la aviation now attracting so much attention
as In America. Over here it is beginning to take oh the proportions of the
real, ainusement variety. Our greatest care now Is to avoid over-stepping.
The financial losses from recent aviation meets In Kurope have been very
heavy. The International Meet, held recently in XAnark, Scotland, .Is reported
to be a financial fidlure to the extent of about {40,000, aotwitbstanding this
aerial carnival took 'place, undeir ' excellent weather conditions, and upward of
200,000 people paid admission to see the events. As this meeting was one of
the most successful from every point of view, held In Great Britain or the
Continent this year. It is not likely that the same scale of magnitude will be
maintained. Few of the air men (only those, who win the principal prises)
make much money out of these competition^ and: many of them wa out of
pocket at the close of the meeting.
The loss to British and Continental promotiers of the chief aviation meet-
ings this year is estimated at about $375,000. distributed as follows: Lionark,
$40,000; Bournemouth. ,$60,000; Blackpool, $75,000; Rblems. $100,000, and
Nlce^ $110,000.
MaUng the Production.
However superior the American theatrical production may be through
the amount of money expended on setting* and properties, we have not yet. In
this country, attained the thoroughness, the attention to detail and to
cast that mark the SngliSh production. . ;
Through ttaie employment of this thoroughness, etc.. the English pro-
ducing manager Is able to get the same results In a $25,000 production, that
the American producing manager pays $50,000 for. This principle applies
not only to England but to all the countries of Europe. :
One fault with the American productions Is the manifest attempt' of those
who are responsible to please the eye rather than the Intelligence, to disre-
gard the aesthetic, senses In their concentration upon optical results. This ap-
plies more especially to the musical comedy brand. The one star , system in
the drama, represents even a greater evil. The -writer recalls having seen a
production of- Julius Caesar iii the theatre under cover of The Crystal Palace,
in Which every actor read his lines perfectly and with a most pleasing effect,
though the settings were cheap and travelrwom. This stands out In favor-
able contrast against the average Shakespearean production in America, in
which only the leading actor, as a rule, seems to be able to read blank verse
with any degree of inteVIgence. Aside from the classics we observe the same
fault. High-salaried actors head casts that are worse than mediocre in their
personnel. Many an American star, who reserves the privilege of selecting
his own support, prefers to spend the qiahagei's jnoney extravagantly for
che^ actors, rather than select artists whomWit detract from bis own
stellar, brilliancy. ii
It is tbne that American manajgers are learning that the theatrical patron
who dwelte in big cities U a traveled person nowadays, and is qualified to
compare American theatrical art -with that of the old world.

EDITORIAL
BULLETIN
Through the further augmentation of its mechanical
facilities THE BILLBOARD is now able to annoimce
to its readers that even a closer selection of news mat-
ter will be made in future than has been possible in the
past. This is due to the long* desired opportunity of
sending all the text forms to press on Monday. No item
of stale news will henceforth be allowed a place in our
columns, and readers will find that through our in-
<aeased facilities of elimination (a process that probably
never before reached so high a state of development on
a class publication, and which surely was never before
applied to an amusement journal in the same d^ree)
they will be ^ven an amusement newspaper of which
there is no peer— not even a successful imitator-^in the
world today.
It has been several years since THE BILLBOARD
was first acknowledged to have the most highly per-
fected system of all American class publications. This
was at the time when we first established our offices in
New York and Chicago, wluch, mth our umversal rep-
resentation in other cities and towns througl^ut the
country, enabled us to present happenings, facts and
conditions as they had never before been presmted to
the peculiair interests we represent.
We have gone on increasing oiu: facilities for gather-
ing information and data of temporary and abiding,
passing and material, interest and value to our readers,
tiU today our system fe weU-nigh per^ •
. ★ ★ ★
We have realized for some time that, while we
have the most complete mechanical equipment of any .
Amusement Journal in the world, with a force of ef-
ficient mechanics and printers such as ho other Amuse-
ment Journal ever has employed, there was still room
for improvement in the schedule of sending forms to
press, and after careful deliberation we evolved a solu-
tion of the problem.
★ ★ ★
So we can now declare without the slightest fear of
successful controversion that THE BILLBOARD is
possessed not only of the best system for gathering
news and information and presenting it to its readers,
but it has also the facilities that enable it to make the
careful selection and elimination of such matter, that
wiU prove both pleasing and beneficial to its readers.
The Actors' Fund
On Nov. 24 next, a new fiscal year
for the Actors' Fund begins, when an-
nual dues of members are payable,
and new members are officially re-
ceived. ,
Mr. Georee Sforton, secretary of the
Fund, says of it:
"The Actors' Fund of America Is the
most liberal charity in thousht and
deed that does or ever did «c]st. It
discriminates not ; agrainst nationality,
creed or professional position. An
Actors' Fund annual report before me
tells how abundant and impartial re-
lief was given to operatic, dramatic
and vaudeville .actors and actresses,
circus perf ormesB, managers, treas-
urers, agents, stage-managers, mu-
sicians, scenic artists, stage mechanics,
wardrobe people, dramatic agents,
dancers, ballet, chorus singers, min-
strels and property men.
"The Actors' Fund of America was
incorporated on June 8, 1882, and held
Its first, meeting at Wallack's Theatre,
New York City, N. Y., July 15. of the
same year.
"As a matter of information, permit
me to quote three sections of the Ac-
tors' Fund orlgrinal by-laws: 'Sec 3.
The officers of this association shall be
president, two vice-presidents, a treas-
urer, secretary and a board of seven-
iteen trustees. They shall not receive
any compensation, etc'
" "Sec. 19. Kach member of this as-
sociation shall pay to the secretary
annijially the sum of two dollars. Any
member falling to pay said dues shall,
without, further notice or proceeding,
cease to be a member.*
'"Sec. 20. Any person entitled to
' membership, on payment of fifty dol-
lars^ may be admitted by the Execu-
tive Committee as a life member, who
shall forever thereafter be free from
the payment of annual dues.'
'In order to assist In directly main-
taining the Actors' Fund Home, any-
one, either professional or non-pro-
fessional, may become what is termed,
a member on subscribing: ten dollars
per anqum, a patron for twenty-five
dollars .or a donor for one hundred
dollars. Bequests, no matter how
small, are also very welcome to the fiind
-treasury. Full information concem-
: ing the foregoing financial items, can
be obtained from the assistant secre-
tary at the offices of the Actors' Fund,
The Gaiety Theatre .Building. Broad-
way and 46th St.. New York City, N. Y.
During its twenty-eight years of ex-
istence, the .fund has expended more
than $1,000,000 in relieving the dis-
: tressed of our great amusement world.
Of late years important sources- of
revenue to the fund have • failed
through deatlis and the law's injustice.
ESxpenditures . are now far exceeding
the receipts. Last year there was a
deficit of $14,665.00. which is certainly
an alarming showing. Were the Ac-
tors' Fund to be deprived of. financial
means to perform its beneficences,
what a terrible condition would the
Indigent, professional be placed in!
There are about 40,000 representatives
■of the various branches of the amuse-
ment sphere who are eligible to apply
to the fund for assistance. Should all
of the 40.000 who could, become an-
nual meiiibers of the fund, paying reg-
ularly J2.00 a year (less than one cent
a day) there would be no longer any
fear for future financial means, and
the. general public would not have to
be called upon to keep those, who In
honesty, in charity. In pride, in justice
and In honor, should solely keep them-
selves and, each other. How can some-
thing come from nothing?
"On Nov. 24. next, the Actors' Fund
will commence another- fiscal year', at
which time the dues of annual mem-
bers are payable, and It should be the
sacred duty of every such membef to
promptly send his or her $2.00 to the
assistant secretary, as before men-
tioned, at the same time enclosing a
stamp for mailing of the receipt. Con-
sider a moment: -Were the fund com-
pelled to pay postage on each receipt,
H might mean. $80.00 or more each
year; ?i very large sum to take away
from the Impoverished.
"All who can should immediately
Join the fund. If you do not require
Its good ofHces, now. yet. it is impos-
sible to foretell truly what changes
time'v and; circumstances may bring
about, and in the Interim place -what
you can with- the Fund. It will be
certain to benefit some needy soul.
"Write to the assistant secretary .of
the Actors' Fund, enclosing return pos-
tage, and request the forwarding to
you of some annual membership (or
life) application Jblanks; have them
properly filled- put. Join : the fund at
-once, and'persnade your acquaintances
to Join. So not- procrastinate. You
cannot work too strenously in such a
grand cause."
What Mr. Morton says is entirely
true. The Actors' Fund of America Is
the most liberal charity the world has
ever known. It is a credit to the pro-
fession as it Is a blessing to those
who seek Its shelter. Then is It a re-
proach to him of the profession, who
ignores its appeal, whether direct and
definite, or only silent and moral?
The fact is patent and notorious
that the amusement profession is more
liberal than any other to tender aid
to Its members In distress. Its charity
is individually as well as collectively
characteristic. But this charity Is un-
systematic, desultory, and too often
misdirected, while the Actors' Fund
has the guarantee of worthiness In the
reputation of Its sponsors. Its officials
and the men who give their labor
gratuitously and without compensation
to its conduct.
If every member of the . theatrical
profession would contribute the tnfl-
nttesslmal sum of two dollars to thli
worthy cause each year, he would hav*
the satisfaction of . a good deed well
done, and without the sllghtrat ^au,
ot deprivation or sacrifice. If he eaa
become a life member through t^
payment of fifty dollars, thereafter be-
ing exempt from the payment of an-
nual dues, let him do so. not with the
sense that he may som'etlme have to
seek the protection to which this en-
titles him, but with the knowledge
that other poor souls whom Infirmity
or adversity have overtaken are bene,
fitting by his generosity.
The man or woman in full bloom of
health is prone to forgret the frailties
to which their brethren and sisters
succumb day by day, and to which
they, themselves, may In course ot
time become prey. It is only when
these things are brought home to them
by actual contact with those overtaken
by disease and decrepitude that their
thoughts turn to charity.
Then (t is to be hoped that all who
read these lines, will. If they are Dot^
already members of the Actors' Fund,
determine to send in their applications
at once to the assistant secretary in
Xew York City (this address is suf-
ficient), or. If they hold membership
already, will renew it now lest they
forget or unforeseen circumstance
prevent.'" ■
A Voice from Pittsburgh
Charles , M. Bregg, dramatic editor
of The : Pittsburgh Gazette-Times,
comes to the: tore anent the' recent dis-
cussion : through;- these : columns as to
whether -the dramatlc^reviewer for the
daily newspaper: should consider him-
self a 8pectali8t.--;and' so qualified to
tell.the people, not only what he thinks
ot the attractions presented at their
theatres, but what kind of attractions
they need and ought to patronize, or
whether he should report as nearly
as possible the degree of approval or
disapproval manifested by the people
— the representative audience among
which he sits — towards the attractions
presented.

sand times as Interesting. It Is one of tbe few
plays of the underworld that Is safe for every-

vrouldn't be better off for seeing it. Its 'hit* Is
entirely deserved."
Percy Hammond, of The Tribune: "Tbe Deep
Purple proved to be a dashing, siqihistleated,
melodramatic btgette of tbe O. Henry type,
fall of graphic Intrlgne, quick and vivid speech,
and some pleasantly IrresfKmalhle romance all
participated in by a lot of varied characters,
most of them with that essential 'tang' which

A WRITER OF HITS
Remarkable Ver^tiKly of One of die Fotemdst of America's Producers
of Popular Music—Elndless List of Mts by Heury Von^^^^
£ach One £mphasized;by OiigmaU^ and Chfum
Tbe Tetsatilitjr of Saxry Von THzer, writer
-of popular songs, seems to be one of tbe moat
remarkable tblngs of tbe present centmy. Ever;
sons lie writes, no matter how many, irat-
ter npon what subject, not matter how trivial,
^Beems to fly right away Into popolarlty. ^be
man is tbe most gifted fellow In ibis liiie yiho
baa lived aUiee tlia days of Stephen Foster. In
fact^. S^oster. never wrote <me-teiitli tlie ^ famoos
songs In an hla career tliat Von THzer has writ-
ten In Ave yeais. To begin even to enomerate
one-half of them would consume mote apace
than anr- newspaper could afford to devote to
ancta a list, bnt Ttx Billboard will endeavor to
do bODUge to tUs remarkaule writer by a brief
review of some of his leading snccesses which
bave rung through the conntry during the past
few years.
The reason for the present article about Von
Xllzer is that almost all the popular songa tbat
are now being sung emanate from his pen. The
comic ditty which Bert Williams sings with the
title, I'll Lend YoD Everything I've Got Except
Uy Wife is Von XHzer's. So is The Cubanola
Glide, the greatest vocal and instrnmental snc-
cesa this country has known In twenty years,
In fact, it is doubtful whether any other one
piece of music baa rivalled Its sale. Of course,
many fantaatic claims have been made by music
piSisberB for their pnbUcatloDS, bat Xon TU-
aer's piece aetnaHy tonches the ligmea he states
and lals Is neaiiy - a million copies.
Harry Von -Xnz« b^ah Us career a few
yean ago wttli a song entitled, My Old New
Etampsliire Borne. Tills swept the conntry with
marvelous rapidity. Encouraged by tbe pro-
nounced Indorsement accorded Ills ' work, Mr.
Von TUzer immediately wrote another ballad
on the sentimental order. This was entitled,
A Bird in a Gilded Cage. He received (2,000
for this song. Not content with the fame
accruing from these two productions and de-
' sbnns u gratlOIng a nent-np ambition to give
fnrUter evidence of bla veraatUty. be penned
In rapid succession darlcy ditties, stage songs,
dasBlcal ballads, and topical wmks in such
. profusion as to fairly stagger the community.
Among these were tlie songs known as I'd
Leave My Happy Home For Sou, Jennie Dear,
The Spider and tlie Bly, I Ain't Gwlne to Weep
No More, Where the Sweet Magnolias Grow,
Her Kame la Bose, When tbe Band Begins to
nay. Where Was Moses -Wben the Mgbt '^nt
Ont, Whoa Bin, Hx iJidy Hottentot, Can Ton
Blame Me Bte liDvUi.' Dat Man?, My Baigboo.
Queen. I Want to be the lieadlng Lady, flie
various numbers of The Fan-American Gin,
Abrahams, Mansion of Aelilng Hearts, Good-
Bye Eliza Jane, p«Tiinih, Won't Ton Open Dat?,
Alexander, the qnalntest of darky songs; Movln*
0ay, What To* Going to do When the Bent
Comes 'BoundT, Down on the Farm. Banquet
of Misery Hall, and otlier fantastic ~^ttIeB. as
weU aa sacred work here and there on the csaer
of his Eternal City. : ' ; <
Coming donn to a later period tt is inter-
esting to note tliat this remarkable wielder of
p<^ralar sentiment in popular mnalc lias moulted
no feather In his cap of prodocUveness. The
following are but a brief few of his more re-
.cent efforts. They embrace every class : of song
from the patbetic to the Indicrons, two of
which, Down Where the Wnrzbnrger Flows and
Under the Anheuser Busch. have cause Von TU-
xer to be dubbed the man who made the Bath-
skeller famous. Here la a detached list of a
dozen or more of llr. Von Tilzer's songs which
have appeared In the almost Inconceivable short
period of six montbs: Top o* the Morning,
Bridget McCue, I.a Is and Her Iia-IA-I,a.
Good-Bye Dearie, Just Help Yourself, Sacra-
mento. Ida-Ho, Wlien tbe Flowers Bloom in
Spring Time, Marintdi, Make a the Hootch-a-
ma-KootcIi, (a companion song to the well-
known My Marlutch), Walt TOl the Sun Shines
NeUIe, and as Take Me Back to Mew York
.'.Xawn.
It is always Interesting reading to analyze
tlie iilstory and causes which prompt recog-
nition of a popular song, but It is especially
Caadnating to learn of the exact amonnt of
public patronage accorded any one particular
song; and for the enlightment of oor readers,
the following table lias been prepared with the
view of giving an idea of liow many copies of
music are annually distributed in the bomea of
the American populace, and, incidentally, to
also show the remarkable ontpnt In the nrodnct
of one writer. This list embodies' only the
works of Von mzer, who, as defined in this
article, represents the typical Yankee song
writer.

manv- more were' sold and dlatribated. bringing
tbetotal np to IO.O0D.00O copies, conservatively
estimated. An almost Incrednloiis statement.
However, the records verl^ the fact.

Harry Von Tilzer bears 'the prood distinctlmi
of liavlng composed more popular songs than
ordinary writers create ins'a life-time, especially
In the line of syncopated music. Of course. It
Is not said In depreciation of bis confreres in

applause, expressions of gratitude and numer-.
-ous curtain calls' constitute success for any
liramatic prodnctlon. David Belasco presented
The Concert at Ford's Opera House last week.
The play Is a delightful comedy, written by
Herman Balir. and Americanized by Leo Dltrlch-
. stein. If the individual opinions, -views and ex-
pressions of those cersons who saw the play
could be written down, they would form a
slowing trfi>nte to the author, producer and
company. It was fine, lovely and delightful
as expressed by people leaving the theatre af-
ter the performances. Affinity is the theme, and
.■as the plot evolves the story becomes Interest-
ing and fascinating.

The Jolly Bachelors were seen at tlie Colo-

Evidences of Returning Prosperity at
Local Theatres.
There seems to prevail at the present time a
satisfactory feeling of a permanent return of
prosperity. Cheerfulness Is evident amongst
the theatrical patrons, and the respective man-
agers are to be counted among those with
the smile that won't come otT. There can be
no denying the fact that efforts are being put
forth at the present time to give the patrons
tbe best that can possibly be secured, and the
present week's bills are of such a high class
that -will again prove my assertion concerning
the return of prosperity.
A glance through tbe bills which appeared
last week will give an Idea of what Is doing
in our great city. Tbe Alvin bad The City; Tbe
Nixon, Montgomery and Stone in Tbe Old Town;
the Grand, a varied bUl ot high-class vaude-
ville, featuring Gertrude Hoffman; Tbe Lyceum.

cty. Al. Beeves, and the Academy, Cherry

side attractions, has for - its banner offering

Gns Edwards' Night Birds company 'were late
for tbe opening performance of the week of
October 2, at tbe Orphenm Theatre, for the
Sunday matinee, and in consequence- there was
r.t time for a rehearsal with tbe orchestra.
Their act went rather slow as a consequence
for tbe Sunday matinee, but npon rehearsal
proved a big and good thins and every member
an artist. Tbe entire bill for that week was
exceptionally fine. One act on the blU deserrei
especial mention. Tbat Is the Great Asabl. tbe
Kltamura Brothera and other Japanese, billed
as The Great Asahl. Bis acts are very mys-
tifying and marvelous. This act Is away and
above the ordinary magician act.

VANCOUVER, B. C.
Maro Klaw Makes Arrangamahta for
the Erection of a New Playhouse.
Mr. Mare Klaw was In the city on Monday
and Tuesday of last week, making arrangements
for the new theatre to 1» located here. The
wbide deal Is practically arranged now, bat
the selection of a site Is still to be dedded
npon. He has. two very favorable locations
nnik'r consideration.
Mr. KUw lett tor Spokane Sept. ST, bnt may
find it necessary to come back here In less than
a week, because if everything Is not completed
satisfactorily In that time, he wiU go ahead
and build a theatre of his own. He stated
that be would positively, have a tbeatre buUt
and comnleted in every respect, ready for the
opening of the new season.
iMr. Klaw was asked what was the difflcnity
in the way of completing arrangements, and
he stated -that It was the high valuation placed
on real estate here.
This is Mr. Klaw's flrst 'risit to this city,
and when told of the slse ot tbe town, he was
considerably astonished, saying that be bad no
Idea that Vancouver Is tbe city It la.
In legatd to tbe length of time his attrae-
tioas would stay hero, he said that according
to his present plans, dramas woold be given
two nights and musical comedlea woold Iw
given three nights bnt It wotild not be lojtg
liefore V.mro«vi>r would be tveatetl to weekly
productions of- practically the best theatrical
talent available.
It Is proposed to erect a theatre to seat be-
tween 1,600 and 2,000, and to cost, aside from
the lot, approximately 1230,000. The irians ot
tbe bnllding are to give Vancouver a theatre
almost identical with the Knickerbocker Thea-
tre In New York City. Construction is to be
completed within six months after starting.
Mr. George McKensIe has been appointed by
Mr. Klaw to look after his Interests In this
city la the tntnre. Mr. McKenxie has taken
an office la the Wlncb Building, and -will notify .
Mr. iKlaw as soon as tbe local people make
satisfactory arrangements. Mr. McKenzle waa
formerly one ot the managers for Wm. Morrta-
It Is possible that Prince Rupert will be taken
Into tbe Klaw & Erlanger circuit at a later
date. They have also taken a lease on the
Victoria Theatre. In Victoria, and Mr. Klaw

a position they deserved. Alexander and Scott,
two excentionally clever artists, were a close
second. The Four Piccolo Midgets opened tba

Ward and (^rran in The Terrible Judge, earned
their share of langlis. while the Hamoa Bros.,
in No. 4 position, did nicely with some clever
pantomimic work. McDonald, Crawford and
Mcmtrose, in some pretty dancing, are followed
by Grapewln, the headliner. and Alexander and

taking. The balance of tb» bill pleased.

press, last week presented a well-balanced bill
composed of The Stnbblefleld Trio, Ijang and
May, Three American T^mpeters, Stephen
Grattan and Co., Merrllt and Love and Pelham.

And then, two weeks after the opening of the

you get through analyzing it alid loolmig for reasons, there
is but one reason and one answer. It is told in one word— "Quality." Gentlemen, if you are

New York City.' Oct. S (Special to Tbe BUI.
board). — New Tork'a second opening waa not
nearly so gradooaly received — The Girl In tbe
Train aeema generally panned.
The TImea, usually moderate, both In pralae
er fanlt-Andtng. aaya that "the original German
veralon waa very, very naughty. The court-
room scene, even la English, la a bit daring."
Jnat why a critic must dig up the original
and taU of Ita nanghtlneea la not readily ex-
plained. At any rate, most of tlie other writ-
en And anfllelait In tbe English veralon to give
It a pretty good toaatlng. A short synopaia of
tbe i^ot aiay lead::one to draw bla own con-
Tbe story la of a woman who - divorces bcr
bnaband only to many again. Tbe Olrl 'ln tlie
Tr»ln of tba -.tltla la an aetreaa, -wbo' beeomea
the co-respondent In the divaice suit. - It la
snpposed that ihe and tbe bosband have tMT>
eled together. She contlanes to - dlatmrti the
wlte'a peace of mind even after tbe divorce,
and when the wife returns to her divorced taua-
band'B boaaa to dUoover tbe actreis there at
a dance, and la vtadd that be la going to marry
her, abe throwa beiaelf into the arma of tbe
Judge who granted her divorce. Of coutae it
la all a mlianderstandlng, and, of coarse, it la
all .cleared np later.

They can not afford to keep tbem any more
than tbey can keep their beat singera from
tbe Metropolitan In Mew Tork. Tlie mote

TRUNK MANUFACTURiER INTER-
VIEWED.
(Oimtlntied from page f.!)
woold take their place as nttlitlea and therefore
aa ataplea of production, Mr. OOldamlth said:
"The alrahip has come to stay. It baa brought
with It ss every great innovation doea, an en.
tlrely new order of thinga in many Itnea, All
lilnds of articles and devlcea that vrere novel-
ties when the railroad waa In ita earlier atagea
of deTeiopment are ntllltlea how', essential to
good service on every road. So with water trav-
el. And «o It will be with the naTlgatloti of
tbe air. Nooe of ua can reatlae now what It
IS going to mean to as. In loeldentala alone.
By Incltlentals, 1 mean things that are not at
the present time regarded aa directly and ca-
Mnttslly eonneeted with tbe aeienee ot aerial
nsvlgstion."
Tbe larger of the two tnmka to be used
for the transportation of the Sbrlever biplane
la thirteen feet long, dve feet tbree Inchea
wide and two feet deep. Tbe other la ten and
a half feet In length, two In width and two
In depth. The amalier one win cany itU tbe
rigging, and the larger ' one tte pIUMS.
"in so far':ait onT'data -go," siys Mr2 Ckdd-
amitb, "tbeae . ate ' the biggeat ' tronin ever
made. Tb^ are of apedai deaign, of eonrae.
The lumber is well aeaaraed baaswood, such
as we use In our regular line of 'Never-break'
trunks. AU of the material Is of the beat.
Ko nalla ate uaed in tbe construction, aU of
the psrts being rivieted. In the big trunks
there are 2,178 rivets, and the smaller one, MS.
All ot the ttlmminga ate ot.teated malleable
Iron. The covering is an extra heavy grade
of waterproof aati duck, with' four coats ot
paint, and on top of that a coat of high
grade varnish. The dock Is cemented to the
box.
"It is expected that each trunk will carry
a little over 100 pounds. Empty, the larger
one weighs about 300 ponnda,; and the smaller
ona 200. Tbe engine will be carried separately
from the trunka. Scbrlever'a aeroplane la said
to carry the heavleat engine In uae for beavler-
than-alr engines. It wetgha about SitO pounds."
Tbe Goldsmith concern waa one of the first
to make tmnks especially designed for uae on
automobiles.' lt;baa done a good bnalnesa In
this line wblcb at tbo start was aa mncb of
•n experiment as the tmnks for atndtlpa.
"I Hope," says Mr. Goldsmith, "to get one
of the aeroplane men to take up one of our
'Never-break' trunks to a high altitude, and
drop It, aa a demonatration to prove wbat
kind of tmnks are made In Newark. X. T..
I aaked Sebrlever to do it. but be baa been
too ba<y op. to date."
An example of the enterpriae of the Gold-
amltb company waa famished a few yeara ago
when the Ug plant, at Cherry and Canal
streets, waa almost entirely wiped ont by llie.
The coDcem. immediately engaged qnartera

tbe loyal help of Its employee snseeeded In

.. A.''TozeB '.Woran. :
In thm mlumnB, a few w &go, A. Tozen Worm was severely crltl-
eiaed for attacking Chicago as a playgoing center. The editorial was a acatb.
Ing arraignment of Mr. Worm, who is one of the best-known preaa agents In
tbe country — and wbo , occupies a very high standing not only with Us em-
ployers, the Messrs, Shulwrt. but by the theatrical fraternity at large.
Mr. Worm Is a man of wide experience, is equally conversant with stage
conditions In America and Bhirope-r-his opinions should merit consideration
—every man is entitled to think; aa^ he pleases, and It should be nobody's busi-
ness if he says -what he pleases, llr. ' Worm is a toian of determined ac-
tion— forcible -in likes and dislikes, candid, brusque, with a command of
language strong enough to sting an antagonist to the quick. His attack
on Chicago was very bitter — there were many to resent It — the press gave tbe
matter a great deal of prominence — ^partisan papers took one side or the oth-
er— The Billboard did also, and that is Just where The Billboard erred— The
Billboard Is essentially non-partisan— It has been our motto and policy to hold
aloof always and even from taking sides in any factional issue — ^no matter how
important' — or how pressing the Influence was brought to bear for one or the
other. In a plant as large as Hie Billboard, where Its news gatherers cover
the entire world— the service la maintained to a perfect degree of efficiency
by the honest co-operation of Its different employes — they are taught to es-
chew personal feelings of friendship or otherwise in their editorial matter.
We, on the other hand, must rely to a certain point on our individual writers
for the authenticity of the Information they submit In doing this there is al-
ways an ele ment o f chance that the correspondent will at times be swayed by
>4iinotlon. JDosptte the extreme caution with which we guard the malntenarce
of our policy of fairness — the attack on Mr. Worm by the Chicago correspond-
ent eluded our noUce and went to print. We regret the incident exceedingly,
and gladly give the matter this publicity in order to convey our attitude to Mr.
Worm. ■ ■ ■
Vaudeville Here and Abroad.
Mr. Morris MeyeriTeld. of the Orpbeum Circuit, has found American vaude-
ville Infinitely superior to that of the Old World. In voicing this criticism, as
printed in detail In the issue of The Billboard for October 15, Mr. Meyerfeld
has expressed the views of observant persons on this subject.
The vaudeville of Europe Is manifestly of an Inferior brand to that pro-
duced in Uiis country. In Bngland It runs largely to singing and dancing acts,
which in turn develop the singing to an inordinate degree^nibt in technic,
nor in tone, nor in quality, but in quantity. In repeUtlon, in reiteration. In the
endeavor to inculcate the words and airs of popular songs upon the audience
over the foot-lights. Ehrery alternate act on the average English Music Hall
bill is a singing act. and usually the bills are put together so that these acts
do not olvrayB even alternate with those of other characters, and you will find
them running along consecutively sometimes four at a stretch. It becomes
monotonous, even obnoxious to the American who has been accustomed to
variety In all that the term implies. Another predominating fault of the
English Music Hall bill ia due to the patience of the Englishman with attempts
at feats of skill that have not been thoroughly mastered. The writer has
seen 'trick bicyclists try time and again without success to perform difficult
feats, the audience cheering each failure, and in the end giving the em-
barrassed performer the heartiest kind of appla.use for bis unsuccessful and
patient endeavors to please. This Is all very well in England, but somehow
It doesn't go in America.
The bicyclists are not the only performers who thus make themselves
ridiculous to the American visitor at the English Music Hall. Rolling-globe
perfdrmera. Jugglers, acrobats, and all the others whose work Is that of e^
pertneaa from practice, are accustomed to this generous allowance of the
average English audience for failures, and their failures are numerous and
exasperating. It la amusing as well as Irritating to the American to see the
performer who has repeatedly tried without success to -ascend an Incline^
balanced on a cannon ball (which has finally slipped from -under his feet
and crashed into the orchestra pit), stand bowing and smiling, while the
audience applauds and cheers uproariously.
While we derive our word "vaudeville" from the French, vaudeville, as
we know it, is an indigenous product In the land of real vaudeville's true
nativity, it takes the form of a revue, with the thread of a plot running
through It and with songs, characterisations, monologues and terpsichorean
performances interspersed. Vaudeville is not always without obvious sug-
gestlveness In such theatres as the Olympla. the Folies Bergere and the Moulin
Rouge. By the very nature of its continuity and movement it Is. furthermore,
hampered, from the American point of view, the possibilities forjiig features
being removed, or at least made remote. So It Is that American vaudeville
la superior to that of England and to France, in which countries it is superior
to that of all the other countries of Europe.
The 0>ncerii of Showmen.
No one who knows, will deny that it was disregard of the public sense
Of the proper that sounded the knell of the carnival business as it flourished
a few years ago. Those who stood at Its head then, and who now constitute
the most successful survivors of the ship-wreck aufiCered by the carnival busi-
ness, proclaimed against such abuses as the Egyptian Danc^ The Olrl Show
and others not of the meretricious, but rather of the repellaat imd diwustlnjr'
brand. They sought Individually and coUecttvely by eveV meau ^ttSn thei^
power and inyentton. through InJunoUon proeeedlnga. throiSTthe tofluence
of the amusement press, by circular letter, and by the advocation of censor-
ship, to save the business from the w6mi,of corruption that was eating at its
vltalK In one sense tbey were anceeasfol; In another they failed. The popu'
larity of the carnival as an enterprise .in the small towns and medium alxed
cities throughout the country, waned. The very nature of the b nain eaa was
tbe catise of its dtsintegratlon. It attracted the Irresponsible showman, be-
cause It afforded him the opportunity of large profit from a very small invest-
ment or from no investatent at all. It even required no special ability,
beyond that of organizing a few shows, with which the country literally
swarmed, and taking them out over a route made up of cities brwhlch the
local committees (the fame of the carnival, as a money maker having m»read^
over the country) were anxious, even impatient to put on snch an event to-
the very point of taking Whatever they could get without Investigation into
its responsibility as represented by past reputation, financial backing or '
reports that came out of the towns where It had exhibited. The local com-
mittees were. In fact aa a rule, made up of the parasitical poUtioiana of the
town, who were as unscrupulous, as irresponsible, and aa IndlHecent to the
welfare of their communis, either from a moral or financial standpoint, as
were the promoters and managers of the carnival organizations themselves.
It Is not necessary here to go into details regarding the -"promoting" of
towns and effecting of contracts. It Is suffldent to say that; the carnival
proprietors of real character and calibre, who had the interest of the business
at heart, and who were desirous to perpetuate It are, for the most part those
who are touring the country to-day -with organizations not dissimilar to .those
with which they gave satisfaction to communities when the carnival business
was in its prime. The business now does not offer the attraction to t he fl y-
by-nlghter that it did seven and eight years ago. But occasionally' a shOwman
who looks back with a coveteous eye to the day when the success of the
most squalid and unpretentious crop of carnival shows reaped a bountiful
harvest ventures in again, employing the same methods, encouraging the same
abuses that he and his contemporaries did In the old days. An instance of
this was observed in a southern city last week, when some of the citizens
were shocked by the spectacle of an evolution ftom the baby rack and ball
game. In the form of a live monkey, which was set up as a target for L_so-
balls. at three throws for a nlckeU * Of course a complaint was lodged with
the local organisations for prevention of cruelty to animals, and tbe sbow (7)
was stopped. ' -
■ The complete eradication of features of this kind is the real .concern of
all true showmen.

Why not this Way?
It is curious that it has never occuiTed to any one to set up as a critic 6n
the customs and manners of the audiences in our playhouses. Why should a
critlcTs genius be employed always for the education of our playwrights: and
players when there la so much to be taught the general public on the gentle
art of playgoing. A bulletin issued daUy on the behavior and mental and
emotional attitudes of our various dramatic audiences of the preceding eve-
ning might have a salutary influence on audiences to come; might indeed re^
dound to everybody's saUsf action, and lift our at present slovenly method of
dramatic response and appreciation to the plane of one of the polite arts:
As, for Instance, something after this fashion In the columns of the dally
press: "The Twinkling Stars' performance of October 12. A good house, but
attention was variable. The audience displayed a pitiful lacOt of concentra^
tlon. Their response -to the low comedy element and the rougher horse play
was Immediate, but the finer humor escaped them. The audience appeared
to have overeaten at dinner. It is suggested that future .patrons of this spark-
ling comedy confine themselves to four' courses and eschew the heavier desserts
such as apple dumpling and plum duff."
Or perhaps thus: "Cilasslc tragedy is not the correct form of entertain-
ment for persons Intent upon current styles. At last night's performance of
Macbeth a large per -cent of those present seemed to be hobbled In the Intei-
;lecf' :
Or possibly after this fashion: "Marion's Despair is not offered as a hu-
morous production. It is probable that last night's audience was too intent on
Its own conversation to grasp the sequence of battle, murder and sudden death.
It is, however, suggested that future audiences read up on the Franco-Prus-
sian war and endeavor to grasp the fact that gunshot wounds hurt and that It .
Is a trying matter to watch the burning of one's home by an invading enemy.
Such fundamental human Information would greatly lessen the work before
the actd^ in future performances of this piece."
The^'power to hold his audience against all odds Is as much talked of
among actors as the power to hold the fort among the military. It Is almost
as heroic a quality and quite as rare. Among civilized communities the actor
should no more be put to the test than the soldier for the mere pleasure of
seeing if he can do it. If we go to the theatre expecting to be forced against
our inclination to laughter and tears, we will frequently return with nothing
but the empty pleasure of .boasting to our . neighbors that the play did not
touch us. Also there will doubtless be found at the playhouse whole rows of
good folk seated before and behind iis whot would cheerfully pay the price of
admission all over again for the pure Joy of lifting us for once by the collar
and effectively ejecting us from the scene of our self-contained comments.—

New York and Sunday , SbDws
There's to be no rest for the actor
on Sunday. That is. If the tentative
plans of Wm. A. Brady are carried
to a successful lssu&:
In other vords. ;Mr. .Brady intends
giving Broadway drama on the Sab-
bath eve. Such little things as the sad
relics of a colonial prohibitory blue
law.notwlthstandins. ,
And this Is how 'twill be done. Tou
may Join the Daly Theatre Club— the
dues will be just as much per per-,
formance as the seat check calls
for — applying a few days ahead will
insure your getting a membership
card — ^also a front row chair — which
is more important.
The scheme is daring and off hand
the writer predicts an imqualified fail-
ure merely because Mr. Brady in-
tends- staging plays too heavy for any
Sunday night attendance.
Suderman, Ibsen, Maeterlinck, Bat-
awaski and others of the old world
masters^, were not intended to amuse
Broadwayites on a Sunday night.
New Tork has been too long with-
out the seventh day entertainment,
and the folks of culture would not
risk a pastorial flaying for so sinning
against the Church mandates. Be-
sides that, every nickel counts, an*
many ministers will howl the battle
cry to avoid a diverting of the money
ctaaaneL
There is but little chance that the
City Fathers would permit such a
Sanday- .: desecration — ^they won't allow
.vaudeville, or flicker drama, then- why
the stuff that causes high brow wrin-
kles.
No real- question of ethics could
enter the discussion. Some people
take -Sunday shows, some don't. If
the thing is Inunoral and transgressies
any of the codes, then there are many
whose chance ■ for heaven Is as slim
as our getting an honest legislature.
In the Western States Sunday shows
are taken as a matter of course; in
Bast, nothing doing. Possibly this Is
only a test of broad gauge morals: at
any rate there doesn't seem to be
much harm come of it
Should the plan eventuate, the ac
tor will be heard from; tliere will be
strenuous objciction' from Mr. Thes-
pian, but that's because It's new to
him. In some isolated cases It may
be a hardship, but he will be well
paid — don't fear.
On the whole, though, one is ' in-
clined to reduce the proportion to
vaporlngs of some tireless though un-
original press agent.
Mr. Frohman started the agitation
of Sunday sho-ws a few weeks since
then came the New Theatre, annotmc-
Ing special Sunday nights at popular
prices for the East Sider — and now
comes Mr. Brady, with the Idea of
organizing the Daly Theatre Club,
with -membership cards ranging from
fifty cents to two dollars and good
only once. Maybe the scheme will
work. Broadway is Just aching to act
real devilish; why not then on Sun-
day nights ? Patience, press agents
and City Fathers -will tell "the answer.
— F. W.
Speculators Again
It happens sometimes that a pom-
pous newspaperman is jostled by a
ticket speculator — straightway comes
a waste^ of paper and ink, roasting an
evil that ho seems able to abate.
No visitor to New York will galn-
saj- the fact that speculators are a
"nul^nce — indulging frequently in
hoodlumism that should be resented
- with a stout cane; and it's repeated at
every performance.
There are some who claim the man-
ager shares profits -with these para-
sites; possibly in remote instances
:they do, but the decent manager on
'Broadway is -willing to spend his mon-
ey to put the speculator out of busi-
-ness. ■ ■ ., ■
But that's no use!
. :$Io law will ever be made bipding
.enough to stop the. graft; too niuch
money behind.
It's up. to the public; there's a very
simple way to remedy the evil.
.' r«t the' public stop bujring from the'
.speculator. — F." W.' . -
-Some 'Ginger Needed
A popular song will run Its career;
so will a play; Then there are plays
and other modes of entertainment
that wlir live to a certain age — then
get a new start and. live all x>ver again;:'
Ginger or innovation or' something
^ust a little different : does the trick.
EDITORIAL
BULLETIN
We are pleased to annotince the institution of a new
feature, which is sure to meet with wannest welcome and
heartiest endorsement on the part of our readers. The
article entitle, **Music Publishing in France," which
appeared on page 5 of The Billboard for October 15, is
the initial article in a series that will display the fruits
of investigation into many and divers subjects of interest
to the proJession of amusements. This week the real
facts concerning the purchase, exhibition and death of
the elephant. Jumbo, are set forth. Next week's issue will
contain a scholarly and interesting disquisition on the
moot question of Shakespeare's use of scenery in the
Globe ThKifte and other ttie^^ which his plays are
believed to have been presented during his own lifetime.
Following that there wiU be an article describing theatri-
cal conditions in Europe, and setting forth the differences
between the customs there and in our own country. Other
. articles will treat of the =rise and decline of the carnival
in popular favor, a brief . history of billposting in the
•United States, sketches of the lives, past and present, of
once famous actors of both sexes now retired, and so on
through a long list of subjects.
Of Interest id Circus Folk
The close of the circus season wiU witness no dete-
rioration of interest quaKty in the matter that will be pre-
sented for the entertainment and edification of those
readers who are identified with the great world of the
white tops. The space that, through the busy summer
months, has been devoted to reports of the movements of
circuses and incidental news of the circus season, will be
given over to special articles of the reminiscent, educa-
tive, historical and biographical character. To begiu
with, we have ready for publication a series of five ar-
ticles treating of the development of the American circus,
sketches of the characters who have been famous as
owners, agents and managers, and as performers, riders,
clowns, aerialists, acrobats, back to the third generation.
These articles will be illustrated with reproductions of
rare photographs of persons whose names have long been
famous (persons who were most popular or most suc-
cessful in the circus world when our fathers were boys),
and with reproductions of old show bills, some of which
date back to 1851. Another series of articles will tell the
details of the building of several fortunes— Bamum,
Hutchinson, Sells, Bailey, Forepaugh, Hobinson, Lillie,
Gole, Ringling, Wallace and several others — upon the
foundation of the sawdust ring. Other articles will tell
how the leading' circus proprietors spend thes winter
months— what their interests are, and so forth. The Bill-
board will be a most congenial fireside companion for the
circus man and the circus' woman this season.
New Motion Picture List
We aire now compiling for early publication in these
columns, a new and revised list of motion picture thea-
tres Mii esdubitors throughout the United States and
Canada. Owing to ^^^^ t^ changes that are daily taking
place among the owners and locations of motion picture
theatres, the life of such a list as w;e published in our
issue of September 3 is necessarily short; 'iT^ afe^^
fore, planning to provide our readers with revised, cor-
reeted^and:amplified. editions., of JJus.iistai..freq
tervials. It is the only list of its kind eid^
That's, what the moving picture In-
dustry needs to-day,, but what-; that's
the question.
No one' safely balanced questions
the future of motion photography. It
is here and here to remain; but the
public will tire sooner or later from
lack of originality. .
For a time most any old thing
that could be shaken Into a plot was
acted out on celluloid. This ran
threadbare: then' stage directors from
the dramatics were recruited; they
brought new life and vim, selected
scenarios with more care, and when
writing talent logged, called Into serv-
ice revamped editions of old ■master-
pieces. These, too, had a- vogue.
Then came the outdoor scenes of
comedy and tragedy, and then the
torrent of Western scenes, Indian sto-
ries and all the what-nots ' a busy
brain could conjure.
What next?
Some one will happen along some
day and start something' new and re-
vived interest In pictures will mean
swelled, bank accounts to the many.
It needs something— what is It7— F.

Looking for Work
Most of the season's shows are
playing — or In the last stages of re-
hearsal. Every season New York
equips hundreds of productions —
thousands of actors are given employ-
ment, and 'yet on any day you select
idle actors by the score may be found
cussing their Ill-luck and idleness on
Broadway.
Why Is It?
The market is not overstocked:
there are plenty of actors needed, but
the mistake many foolish ones make
Is to think they »re all needed on
Broadway.
Mannjgers 'everywhere have miieh
at stake In making a production;
they must exercise shrewd care In se-
lecting players they will take no
chances -with' untried timber. That's
the main reason for so much Idleness
in New York.
Usually the story would run. . that
an actor has been successful in oth-
er towns. The Broadway ambition
promptly commences to squirm, the
grip is packed, some business car da
printed on the little hand press, and
then Broadway Is crumpled under
heei.
The usual attempts to see the mana-
gers are made; then the booking
agents are tried, and then comes the
long wait of idleness and disjointed
financeR.
Unless you are known in New York;
unless you have reason to believe that
by pull or merit you can batter down
the outdoor barriers to the managerial
den, don't come to Broadway: It's al-
most a hopeless task, and besides,
your home town may need your talent
Follow this suggestion: When you
start to Broadway.'-^ have -the .contract,
in your pocket, or return transpor-
tation. — F. W. ,
Broadway and Shakespeare
Julia Marlowe returned from Bu-
rope recently. At the custom house,
she declared ten ' thousand dollars'
worth of costumes, saying they were
to be used for Shakespearean plays.
All of this is very good advertising
for Mlas 'Marlowe. She Is welcome to
it for several-reasons; the chief one la
a remark made about Broadway, and
Shakespeare. In a word, they don't
jibe.
"Broadway won't : come to see
Shakespeare," she Bald, "but the
poorer, or middle class, or whatever
you might call them, will, and pay
one dollar and a halt to see the pro-
duction."
Miss - Marlowe Is right: Broadway
will not pay for Shakespeare, and'
more's the pity. Broadway should be
ashamed; it probably is, but half
naked musical comedy, at two dollnra
per hard back. Is the reigning erase
Just now on the 'White Way.
The serious minded ones will say
that the theatric taste is vitiated—
that Shakespeare gives the actor much
that requires heavy talent to handle.
The other fellow says that's just the
reason why he fibs to wifey and sets
over behind the brokers' row at some
footllght- lingerie exposition, fie says
he's wearied of seeing the romance;
time has come when naturalness
claims the floor,. He don't want-the

The publication of an article on Jumbo ,ln The Billboard
of July 23, 1910, has started the wheels of' contention rum-
bline again, and from a; number of sources have come replies
repudiating statements made concemins the life' history of
the famous animal. The point involving the greatest contro-
versy in the premises la "Where did Jumbo die?" There are
many who aver that Jumbo was killed Vat Chatham, Ont., but
documentary evidence recently comlns Into our possession
claims St. Thomas, Ont., as the place where the noble animal
met his death. We are in possession of certain old papers,
furnished by Mrs. James R. Davis, wife of Jim Davis, at that
time foreign purchasing agent tor the: Bantum and Bailey
Show, which established this fact and miake further denial
useless. Jumbo was killed at St. Thomas, Ont.
"Who brought Jumbi to America?" This question Is also
one over which a few peraons who should have excellent knowl-
edge of the early history of the Bamum and Bailey Show, have
disputed. In order to stop all further wrangling on this sub-
ject. The Billboard reproduces on this page a letter of Introduc-
tion written for Mr. James R; Davis by P. T. Bamum. the day
before Mr. Davis sailed for Europe.
To him belongs the credit of having
safely transported Jumbo to America.
It was Mr. Davis, and-he alone, who Is
entitled to the dIstlncUon of having
Jumbo's coming to America an-
nounced in all the American papers.
Upon his arrival In laoxidon. and af-
ter negotiations for the transportation
of the animal had be«n completed.
Mr. Davis wrote the notice for the
London papers, decrying the sale of
Jumbo to Barnum and Bailey. His
purpose waa to arouse aympattay in
England, and Interest on both conti-
nents. This was a masterly piece of
advertising, as all the New York and
other big city papers carried excerpts
of the pathetic stories printed in the
English papers. In 'further substan-
tiation of the claim that Mr. Davis
was the man who brought Jumbo
across the ocean, we print an inter-
view which appeared In the Chicago
Herald, dated September 20, 1885: "I
went to London for Jumbo In Janu-
ary. 1882," said Mr. Davis. "Some
time prior to that I had been over
there negotiating for the purchase of
the animal, but the Zoological Socie-
ty, which owned him, would not fix
any price. Finally I returned, leaving
word to cable us as soon as they de-
cided upon a price. 'When we re-
ceived' a -message saying that we
could hatre Jumbo for $10,000, we ca-
bled at' once, accepting the oRer, and
I was sent after him. 'When they
gave us a price, they, supposed it
^ould be impossible for us to remove
Jumbo from the quarters he had oc-
cupied during seventeen years, with-
out seeing a horse or a vehicle of aiiy
kind.: When I ' reached Ziondion I had
a special car constructed upon a set
of trucks. It was really
a big box on wheels,
weighing twelve tons, .
Without the trucks, and
costing 82,600. Tou:. see,
we had to transport Jum-
bo eleven miles, from the
gardens to the docks. I
iviil venture to say that It
was the largest amount of
live weight ever trans-
ported. It was a shifting
weight, unlike stone or
boilers, and was very hard
to manage. Just think
of ten tons of shifting
weight rolling along a
road in a twelve-ton car."

Tribune, dated September 21, 1885, part of which Is as follom:
"Mr. James R. Da'vls, for many years foreign agent for P. T.
Barnum, Is m the city. The friends of Mr, Davis know him as
'Jumbo,' a sobriquet he won for conducting all the negotiations
which resulted In Barnum 's getting the late giant elephant of
that name. Mr. Davis told a Tribune reporter some unpub-
lished faiits about bis namesake. When sent firom Paris to th«
Xiondon Zoological Gardens in 'exchieinge for a hippopotamus, he
was placed in chairge of Scott, who remained his keeper until
the elephant's death. Mr. Davis has a photograph of Scott and
his charge as they appeared at that time. Jumbo reaches Just
to his keeper's shoulder. Scott.Is a character In himself: Until
he came to this country with Jumbo he . had not, in the recol-
lection of man, been outside of the Zoological Gardens. He was
Jumbo's Inseparable companion. He slept In the hay loft above
Jumbo's quarters and .tooki aU,.ttae care, of him. This Intimacy
could not fall to have: its effect upon one or the other, and, aa
a consequence, Jumlad contrsLcted 'some of Scott's bad habits.
The keeper was an Inveterate chewer of tobacco. Jnmbo ac-
quired the habit, and to the day of his death had to have hla
allowance. He also regarded onions
as a great delicacy.
"Jumbo's exact height 'was eleven
feet four Inches to the shoulder, and
twelve feet five Inches to the top of
his head.' His actual weight, given In
the circus bills as ten tons, was seven
and a half tons. . . This country did not
seem to agree -with- him at first, and-
he lost flefdi; but he soon- began to gain
until he exceeded- his Bngllsh weight,
and though he did not grow in height,
continued to Increase In weight until
the day of his death. The Increase
the receipts of performances in K'ew
York during the first week that Jumbo
was exhibited there more than paid
his entire cost to his .new o-wnerr.and
during the ten days that he was first
exhibited here' In 1883, the receipts
were the largest In circus history."
The above evidence 'wlIl unques-
tionably correct many erroneous im-
pressions, and serve to prove a ques-
tion over . which many heated argu-
ments have arisen. "
' Mr. Davis was bom at South Bend,
Ind;, on September 26, 1852, and prac-
ticed law in that city until the time
he'was engaged as foreign agent for
the Bamum A Bailey Clrciu. He
died September 17, 1888, In Cineltt-
natl. His death was due to a pulmon-
ary ailment contracted while trans-
porting Jumbo from the Zoological
Garden. Iiondon, to the sailing point,
a distance of eleven' miles. In order
to be in time for sailing, it was nec-
essary for htm to tramp through a
heavy fog at 3 o'clock In the morning,
and on this Jonmey he took a cold,
from which- he never fully recovered.

LUNA PARK IN TROUBLE
State Receiver for Cong's Greatest Amusement Resort — Luna,
tbwever, is Not Insolvent — ^Absurd Mistake was Made
Alleges Attorney for the Park Company
H«w Tork, Oct. 15 (Special to The Bttlboard).
— D«pat7 Attorney Oeoenl Tanner appeared be-
fore Supreme Court Justice Maddox, Friday*
October 14, In Brooklyn, and alleged tbat the
lAna Park Company waa Inaolrent. Be naked
that a receiver be appointed for It and that the
usual Injunction tylns up the assets of the de-
fendant nntil tbe receiver coold get to work be
iMoed. Entirely contradictory statement* were
made by Deputy Attorney General F. O. Tan-
ner and T. B. Bodcskln, representing the defen-
dant. Justice Maddox asked fW l addltloaal
affldavita and. reserved decision.
Mr. Tanner, in asklnc for ttie appointment of
a receiver, alleged tbat the defendant company
owed tOe.OOO to. the I^fayette Trust Company
of Brooklyn, now In the hands of the State
Banking Department, fS.OOO to the Borough
Bank of Brooklyn, also in the same condition.
$53,000 to the Otto Hnber eatate, (112.000 in
salaries. tM.eS0 for rent, S9.000 to the Uechan-
ics' Bank, and <3.000 to the National City Bank.
The Luna Park Company, he went on. was
capitalized for $2,000,000 and had Issued to date,
1450,000 In bonds. It bad failed . to pay the
conpons on the bonds In tbe middle of 190B.
snd in January and July of this year. All ef-
forts on the part of the State Banking Depart-
ment to get Brat-hand information from the
company as to Just what Its books said about
asseta had met with a flat refusal, and the
Corporation Directory, which contains . this In-
fotinatlon relative to most companies of stand-
ing, also reported that all tntMrnatlos had been
rerased.
To the best of bis knowledge the Deputy
Attorney General went on. If a Are should sweep
away the Zona Park buildings, there wonld be
nest to nothing that the State Banking Depart-
ment coold lay hold of to cmer ' the |MU!00.
osred to the two defmiet banks now In Its
bsnds. Hence, he wsnted a receiver appointed,
so that all creditors could abate alike,- ta the
end tbat tbe two banks should get at least a
fsir share. If not all, of what waa owing to
them.
The attorneys for the defendant companiy, 'said
the Oepntr Attorney .OenenI, had piomlsed the
Banking Department last spring that on July

It tells tbe story of wbat's happening after

For instance, this from the Kew- Tork TCimes:

a French operetta and is now an American
adaptation, yon have every reason to fear tbe
worst. And so far. as Joseph Herbert's so-
called hook of Ume. Xkoabadonr Is concerned,
jen certainly do get It. Nothing so badly ama-
teurlBh and so naively nangbty has come this
way In a long time. And in consequence — or
largely In consequence of -this~B£. Felix Al-

Second Brood
New Tork, Oct. 11 (Special to The Billboard).

haa deftnltely laid ont an entire new program

and will easily keep the manager busy until
the end of December, when he will begin ,to de-
vote himself exdnsively to ilande Adams' pro-
duction of Chantecler.
Between now and the fltst week in January,
i£r. l^ofaman proposes to make fifteen new yro-
dnetlOBs which will have their first performance
ia New Tork, Boston and Chicago. Some of
these plsys will , have to go into rehearsal this

mined upon within tbe next two weeks. Most
Of the plays In this second set of Frohman pro-

Shuberts Start
Agency Reform
New Tork, Oct. 11 (Special to The Billboard).
— The Shuberts, on October 10, broke with the
hotel theatre ticket agencies tliat raise tbe
prices for the best seats. They aniuranced that
hereafter the best seats. Instead of being found
in the hotels, will be In the box-offices and that
this rule applies to the Casino, Lyric, Herald
Square, Daly's, Broadway, Nazimova, (kimedy,
Maxlne Elliott and the Backett Theatres.
For several years the Shuberta have handed
over bloelca of the best seats In all their thea-
tres to the hotel agencies with the understand-
ing that the agencies would not diarxe more
than fifty cents apiece extra for them. The
agency got Iwenty-flve cents and the theatre
twenfy-five cents extra.' Tbe sgency fasd the
privilege of returning any unsold seats at 7:30
on the evening of the performance. Hotel
agencies have been Icnown to cliarge as high as
$4 a sest for tickets.
Lee Shnbert said tiiat tbe arrangement with
the agencies was discontinued because the hotel
agencies secretly bniugfat tickets direct from
the box-oOIce men. "The hotel agencies," said
ffliubert, "liave not hesitated to corrupt tieas-
nrers of the theatres.

Deacon and Lady
American— -"I suppose that thoe was a time
In the hectic chaos of our history when such
a production as The Deacon and the Lady at
the New Tork Theatre would have filled as
with insensate Joy. For It Is quite- gorgeously
foolish: It U filled with 'music' that sounds
like molasses tastes, and it baa all tbe disad-
vantages of vaudeville with none of its ad-
vantages. In vandevllle. for Instance, Mr. Harry
Kelly, who Is the 'star' of The Deacon and the
Lady, would come on, hold forth for two mln-
ntes, and then get out. So would yon. Also In
vaudeville. Mr. Ed. Wynn would emerge from
the wings— possibly following trained monkeys
or Intellectual cockatoos— let loose a monologue
and skidoo. So woold yon." . .

The Family Is a cnriooa blend of elemental

of the son, which, barring sllgbt exaggeratian,

the reported resignation of J. A. Berst as locsl
manager of Fathe Fterss. So far as learned,
thste has been no atatement made either con-
aiming or denying the report, lint those who
credit the rumor point to the fact that Arthur
Bonasell has left the BaandbRxdc factory man-
sfsment to other bands and spends bis time now
la the Pathe Kew York office. Mr. Bonssell,
aeeordlsg to report, is to be Berst's sneeessor.
The announcement of different people attached

this as a decided victory urging that so many

they did means a good omen for theu canie.

PICTURE FILMS IN EUROPE
Details of the Manufacture and Import of Mobcm Picture F3ms in
Hamburg and Other Parts of Germany — ^Methods
Used by Selling Agents
Hamburg. Germany, Sept. 25, 1810 (Special
to Tbe BUlboard).— AltbooKh the American
raw (nnexp<Med) film Is considered by those con-
sulted In Bamburg as of superior qnslity, it is
not believed that It ess he imported Into Cter-
many. Two very large American moving pic-
ture flim concerns bave established their own
factories on tbe Continent: The Kodak Company
In Berlin and the American Titagraph in Paris.
It Is understood that these supply the demsnds
of tbe trade as far as raw materials are con-
cerned.
Machines and parts thereof being In so little
demand, only one machine being needed by any
8. 8. HUTCHINSON.
producer of pictures, the trade In theie articles
reaches no considerable figures.
Exposed film rarely, if ever, comes direct to
Bamburg from the Cnlted States, and very
few aims of American origin are shown In this
city. The two firms above mentioned and the
VttasGope- Company are represented all over
Europe and practically control what little de-
mand there Is for American pictures. The
criticism la offered that the subjects most cem-
monly seen In pictures from the milted States,
those of wild west life, or Indian pictures, have
become tiresome to the pnUIe on this side, and,
further, the pictures are alleged to be not as
well produced to-day as they were a number
of years ago, falling short in clearness and In
adequacy of staging. In Bubjects of humor,
the German pubUc frankly admits Its Insbll-
Ity to understand or appreciate It, the points
being at too wide a variance from those which
are understood and enjoyed on this side. Be-
cently a very amusing American picture waa
exhibited In Bambors. which fsUed to draw
forth even a smile, Tbe sobject dealt with
was tbe Typical American noonday segment of
pie, but nobody knew what pie was. nobody
knew the American habit, very few nnderatood
tbe various signs exhibited In the picture, all
In English, and the humor of a chase across
tbe city for a piece of fresh pie failed to tWKh
anyone.
It Is customary with dealers In m^vtug pte-
tures to equip their traveling agents with
programmes of pictures which are to he ex-
hibited two or three weeks hence, and to supply
them also with a sample copy of each picture
for exhibition to managers of moving picture
shows. At tbe time the agent aenda in his re-

"Almost all his life Tony Pastor was tha
original 'easy mark.' " said one of his oldMt
friends. Any one. actor, manager, agent, coold
'touch' him Bacceasfully; and how be iuPMntd
to leave more than fe,000 when he died isa
mystery. IHe never seemed to keep any account
of the monej be- loaned, and I. know ha mnat
have passed out k' good many tbonsand dollars
during bis csreer wttiioatT^ sUn of naimr?
show for It. Here's :aa ezamnto: -
. jaa _liavlng lunch wltb^lm attemocn
in a Foorteenth street restaurant and Tony saw
a story in an afternoon paper about a theatrical
company being stranded In Salt Lake City. Ba
went across to hia theatre and had hia maaasar
get the details. When he learned that It waa
a bona-flde case of acrandliur. with a bosinsM
manager who had skipped.^ony had iUsewn
bank wire to Salt Lake City enough money to
get the company out of debt, pay their fares
to New York, and feed them on the way. How
many timea he did that sort of thing nobody
knows. His friends nasd to lemonatrata with
him about hU generosity, but It did no good.
He simply eonld not be kept fi«m lending Ids
money. •
"Be was constantly helping rarletr acton. In
the old days those fellows were alwaya broke,
and they always Cams to Tony tar bdo. 2
chap would come to Um and ask for Uslraay
would ask hfin to plar hia kooae In retotn. md
the fellow would promise.' Ifaybe one in ten
kept the promise. :: ^^TT
••When he used . to CO '(u tii* imd^
his own company It' was a- shams to nae the
way stranded acton used to wait tor Us arri-
val. It was worst In Cbleago. Thay would
meet him at Uie train wltli bard lock atoilai
and Tony wonld always stand toi tlwm. tW
were not only actora. bat bualaeaa jaanagua
and agents, and every sort of person connactsd
with a theatre.
"When Keith took the Union Square TiMatra
and began to present modem vandevills that*.
Tony's business began to fall off and his pmats
to shrink. TUs did not seem to effect Ua
lending to any extent, however. It only cnr-
talled his own speudlog money. In the last faw
years before hia theatre closed, he made com-
paratively Uttle money. I am aorprlaad that
his estate amounta to aa much as It does. Ha
must have made a million dollars in Ui time,
and 1 tlmnght he had given away almoat that
much.*' ■

In this country, where writers play loose and
fast with their contracts.
"Are tbe foreign publishers affable and ac-
cessible as a rule?"
'The foreign publisher is yery affable and
hospitable at home, but strictly a man of busi-
ness, to be seen by appointment only and for
a serious purpose. The Englishman has his tea
served while at work. The 'German and Vien-
nese interrupts ills business only to go to the
Dearest cafe, or rather, he goes there to trans-
act bis business. In Vienna the cafe Is the
bourse or stock exchange where most of the
operatic deals and contracts are consummated."
**ls Sheet music 'sacrificed' and 'slaughtered*
In point of prices, as In this country?"
"The average price for sheet music Is treble
what It Is here. No slaughtering Is permitted
and a firm caught cutting rates Is heavily fined
by the United Board of Music Trades."
"It Is nnderstood that a genetons. fee is ex-
acted from programs and pnhUe performances
in some conntrles. Wtaat Is this average rev-
enue?"
"There are eo-iiiperatlnff assodatlona of com-
posers and mosIe pnbllBheni in Berlin, TIenua
and Paris, and those/ oiganlzatirais have their
agreements , with the leaders of the diir«rent
orchestras and; proprietors of cafes and restan-
rants, whereby said leaders or proprietors pay
a. fixed sum per year to the society ot com-
posers and publishers. The leaders or propri-
etors must deliver a list of the musical num-
bers played. The~ society collects these lists
and programs during the year. . and at the end
of the year distributes a dividend to Its mem-
bers according to the nnmber of times the va-
rlons pieces have been played."
"What are the leading musical productions
now. In foreign countries, notably In Germany
and France?"
"The Important new successes are Miss Sndel-
sack. which Klaw & Erlanger now have in re-
hearsal here. It is a Scotch opera, very me-
lodious, and with a splendid story. The score
was written by Bndolph Melsmi. a Berlin com-
poser and pianist of note. The Graf from Lnx-
enborg Is another very tuneful opera, and The
Barefoot Dancer, by Belnhardt, is a third. Tbe
last named Is now In rehearsal, with the Sbu-
berts. Spmdelfee, or "The Carlsbad Girl, as it
will be called here, is another opera that ist
very snccessfnl. It will shortly be produced
by Wetba tmd Lnescfaer, with Christie McDonald
In the star part." *
"Are there any siiigera of ; note abroad who
wonld be welcomed hy managers^in this coon-
tryr*
"There are many singers abroad who wbold
be welcomed In this country. ^ In' Einiope, Xebar
and snch composers insist upon good TOices.
They want their operas song and not barked.
In Miss Ondelsack there Is a tenor, rFHtz Wer-
- Her, who would be a find for any: American man-
ager, and there are many others. Tn, the cast
of The. Arcadians, in Ixjndon, tliere is a come-
dian, whose unctuons comedy as the Jockey would
appeal to any audience here."
"Which was the best staged comedy you
witnessed, and how da these compare with
American productions of this kind?**
"I saw no attraction abroad which was really
well staged, excepting possibly Tbe Wbip, the
melodrama at Omry Ijane. In fact, the staging
does not In any. way compare with onrs. At tbe
same time The Waltx Dream and The Gay Hus-
sars, both only fair snccesses bere. are playing
to capacity over there for the third year. The
reason Is very etidenfc Hey have capable ar-
tists, and pay mote attention to careful selec-
tion of cast, and give ample time for prcpara-.
tlon. In a comedy by Molnar, called Herr
Vertheldlger (Mr. Advocate), on» of the most
".\ comparison is absurd. Anything that Is
of merit in the present-day Parisian Revue at
the Marigoy. Follcs Bergere, Moulin Rouge or
elsewhere, is distinctly American, especially
the songs. The only thing the Frenchman can
claim in these .shows as his own is their elab-
orateness of costumes and an abundance of dou-
ble entendre and vulgarity. Decidedly the best
revue I saw In Europe was at the Metropolo in
Berlin. In this revue Paul Iilncke has five
distinct musical hits. Including his famous
Turkish lotermeizo. On the Bosporus."

Long DrougKt Broken , and Theatrical
Patronage Picks Up.
Ibe exceedingly long drought came to an end
October 6, : and although the rain did not
come In a large quantity it brought a welcome
relief. The weather conditions at present af-
ford a pleasant change from the hot dry spell
we have been enduring. The long continnoDS
hot spell -was somewhat nnusnal for this time
of the year. The weather affected the attend-
ance at the theatres and theatregolng .was as
nncomfortable as thoogh it was midsummer.
Behind the scenes is no longer a curiosity to
the public - as it was years ago. The public
was given an opportonity of seeing the mys-
teries of stage effects when ISr. Bdasco' pre-
sented" Zaza. .
Marshal Gotsndi, of the Baltimore County
police force; bas Issned an order that will pre-
vent any child onder. twelve years old from vis-
iting moving pictote theatres nnless accompanied
by parents or a gnardlan. He thinks that the
pictures cause the yonng children to stay ont
late at nights and contract Immoral" habits. Be
has given bis men strict orders to enforce the
rule vigorously. The marshal also desires a
censorship established for the pictures exhib-
ited in the territory under his control.
Through the courtesy of Charles -E. Ford.

The club always had a play written espedally
for their purpose, and not being able to secnre
anything snItabV for production, it became nec-
essary to resort to producing farmer professional

THE SELLS BROTHERS
Pen Pktuies of a Famous Fainily'ci Showmen, DiawD from Memory,
by Intimately Acquamted m
By J. MILTON TRABER.
Tbe BlUboaid, In pieseDtlng to its lefjlni of
readen, portrays the 8]iowiiuui*s life of tUs
funny of Central or Western State celebrities.
One can not take a single life to give a picture,
the wbole family as a wbole were so closely
associated tbat tbe lives of the entire family
most be given to make a successfoi nnit of
completion, therefore I will give a - brief pen
picture of each member.
The Sells Brothers enjoyed the nnlqae dls-
tinctton of being the oldest managers owning
and managing one show without intermission
(or a longer period than any other managers
Jn the world. Xbej never, tram the. start nntll
their death, fkfled to*, s^id ont- a show each
year. Never a break, but one omtlnnoas sea-
son practically speaking. Tbe Sells Brothers
were bom on a farm near Colnmbns, Ohio.
Their father was a very indostrions and earnest
farm gardener of extraordinary mental capacity-
and remarkable moral character. He was- a
great bible student and acted dnring the later
Sears of his life as a lay preacher in the
[ethodlst Episcopal church. The sons all In-
herited from him a rather serious torn of mind
and an Inherent integrity that time iand busi-
ness could not impair.
WhUe the brothers were very young, the
family moved to Cleveland, Ohio, in 1854, and
oigaged In various pursuits, the two younger
brothers, Lewis and Peter Sells, being con-
ductors of the first street cars that were ever
run in the city of Cleveland.
After service In the civil war, and tiring of
that vocation, they engaged in varions pnrsnits
- IDr themselvea. ■
Hr. Peter Sdls engaged iia the - newspaper
business and held various editorial and Imslness
positions on one of the leading daily newspapers
of Cleveland. ETestually the family returned
to Columbus, where they engaged in the auc-
tlmeer business, until in 1872, when they organ-
ized the Sells Bros.' Show. The original owners
were Ephraim Sells, William Allen Sells, Xewis
Sells and Peter Sells. The entire family of
boys have passed to that - land above where
Bo troubles and cares are known. Tlie show
was a small nndertaUng at the start, but It
was excellent In quality, ; and successful in
.business methods,, and ancceeded fmm -ttie very
outset and did a very , profitable bnslness. It
traveled from town to town for six years In
wagons drawn by horses.
In 1878, It abandoned the wagons for railway
trains. They exhibited their show in all the
Important; cities and towns In every state and
territory of the United States and Canada.
In November, 1891, they took their sliow to
Australia, and returned to -tills coontiy In June,
1892, after having a most: anccessfoi season In
i tbe Antipodes. -
' In the winter of 18T8. Sells Brothers im-
-porteA the first pair of hippopotami ever
brought into captivity here, and continued to
exhibit them throngbont the Union, daring
which time tliey grew to eaormons proportions.
In Apm, 18S6, their show was consolidated
.with tbe Adam Forepangh Show In a perpetual
miioc. This consolidation brought together in
one enterprise the fonr oldest , in . experience,
greatest in wealth.- progressive : In : enterprise,
and famons throogboot the wodd.- elreDB man-
agers In existence. Messrs. James A; : Bailey,
W. W. Coles, and the Sells Brothers. -
Tbe career of the Sells Brothers is one that
should Inspire every youth of the land with
ambition to succeed In whatever he undertakes.
They were entirely self-made men and have
built their careers n|>an the solid foundation of
honesty and incessant Industry. Their shows
during the last days of the lives of the Sells
Brothers were to tbem more a matter of pride
than a means of profit. The four sons left
each a fortune that Is now being enjoyed by
their wives and danghters. ' . ; .
lur. wmiam Sells, who died a fefw^jrears ago
In New York City, and was Imown some years
ago as "MastCT- Willie, :the boy bareback rid-
ing wonder," also in later yeara as i-a partner
with tile Hmnmel, Hamiltbn and Sells Sliows,
The SeUs-Gray Show, The Sells-Downs Shows,
and last, bnt not least, the now famous Sells-
Zfloto Shows, was considered as a yonng man-
ager and. proprietor to thoroughly understand
the drcns boraness, was an- adiqited .son of one
of the ' brotbera. '
Sheldon HopUna Barrett was horn November
9, 1845, at AUllon. N. T., and removed with his
parents to Cleveland, Ohio, in 1855. Here they
became ni>Ighbors of the Sells family, the head
of wliom (the father of the Sells brothers) and
the elder Barrett became fast friends. Toong
Barrett and the three younger Sells -Brothers
(.Allen, Lewis and Peter), went to.pubUc schoor
.together and were playmates; *
When the Woodward avenoe street railway
was established as the first street car line in
Cleveland. Ohio, S. H. Barrett, I«wls and
Peter Sells were employed as conductors. After
nearly three years of this sort of service, Ur.
Barrett was tak.-n Into the office of the com-
Sany and became the cashier, wtdch position
e coatinned to hold until 1880-. Se-reral years
previously the Sells Brothers had removed to
Columbus, Ohio, and In 1872. .they began their
career as showmen, - putting.- ont a wagon show
imder their name.
In 1878, they Iionght the majority of the
property of the Montgomery Queen Circns which
WBB sMd at IjOaisvOIe, Ky., and converted the
Selto^Biothers' Show into a:railn>ad show.
Tbey ^sent out also their old wagon show, to
which other property was added, under the name
and direction of James A. -Anderson, of Colum-
bus. ■
In 1880, Mr. -Andetsm retired from the man.
agement of the show, and the Sells Brothers
then Induced Mr. Barrett to resign his position
with - tile railroad company In Cleveland, and
aaaome the management, of the -Anderson show,
which was changed from a wagon allow into
a. railroad show : and. became known as the S.
H. -Barrett and CO. SHow.
Charlea Castle had been engaged as general
agent for -this venture, bet tie was taken ill
immediately prior to the starting ont of the
Show in the seasOTi of 1880. Mr. Eugene A.
Weiler, a wdl-fcnown agent was appointed car
iiiaiia«!r and did good service with the com-
Tbe writer was -also-.- associated -n-lth
WeBer as his general assistant, having held
a abnllar position under Weiler with the Mont-
gomciy .Qneen Shows (which was the writer's
first experience, actively. In the circns budness,
1878>. ,
Mr. Barrett never having had any experience
in the show -business, assumed charge of the
advance, and although the show continued under
his direction for a period of six years, he al-
ways remained In advance of it.
- His . success and natural ability as general
agent was made Clearly manifest nnder the
circumstances.
In ttie'^ring of 1888, the Sells Brothers and
S. H. Barrett Shows were merged Into one, and
Mr. Barrett became the general agent for them
(wlilch in ISOd were further combined with tbe
Adam Fbrepangh Show), which position be held
until his death.
Mr. Barrett, at the time of his death, was
a member of the Tork Ixidge of Master Masons
and the Webb Cliapter, Boyal Arch Masons of
Cleveland, a charter member of the Aladdin
Temple of Uystlc Shrine, and a charter member
of 'the niew: Consistory of Blights .Templars,^
Columbus, and was also a member of the
Thirty-second Degree : of : the Sicotttdi. Bite'
Blasonry.^ :
In 1868. he was nnited In maixlage with Miss
Bebecca F. Sdls, a-sister of the Sola Brothers,
who, with two sons, snrvlves him.
Mr. Barrett died May 16, 1900, at the tTnlted
States Hotel, Boston, Mass., from typtaold-
pnenmonia. His remains were embalmed and
taken to his home In Colnmbns, Ohio, for In-
terment. This ended the worthy career of one
more of nature's noblemen.
Mr. Willis P. Cobb, the famous monkey, dog
and pimy trainer,: married , one of .tbe Sells
Brothers' slaters, who now Is : well and alive in
Coinmbiis, - Ohio.
The Xong Family of 'horse and animal train-
ers, composed of Charley, Montgomery and
Edward, who were associated with -the Sells
Brothers^ • Shows for the past thirty years, are
still In harness and working every day.
CIRCUS OR SHOW?
San Francisco, Oct. 15 (Special to The Bill-
board)^— There -would liave been serious trouble
fOr'Baflalo Bin's Wild West show If Supervisor
O'Dowd, chairman of the license committee,
coold have had bis way dnring .the' stay of the
show in this city last weak. The - wild -west
show paid In advance to the tax collector a
license fee of- tS a day, the nsnal diarge for
any ordinary show. However.- Snpervlsor O'Dowd,-
who had been looking over the governing ordi-
nances, noted that -a circns was charged a
license fee of $100 . a: day. There could be no
donbt, he insisted to felloir membeis - of the
lioard, that the wild west show, however named,
was to all intents and purposes a circns.
Bepresentatives of the show, hearing what
was going on, made a hurried visit to the Super-;
visor's office and voiced energetic protests against
any increase of - the rtinrge, insisting that the'
show -was no circus, but simply what its name
conveyed, a "show," and differing In no other
particular from any of the IS-a-day-IIcense shows
except in its extent.
O'Dowd ■ was not satisfied, and, with tbe
acquiescence of his colleagues of the license
committee, referred the matter to the city
attorney -with a -warning to the showman that
if his contention in tbe premises was sustained
the extra money would have to be pald,> arrears
and all, or steps wonld be taken to have the
sheriff -dose the sliow. .
The dty attorney rendered an opinion to the
effect that as the tax collector had already
accepted the f5 license fee, -so establishing the
status of the show, nothing more coold be done
about the matter. Supervisor O'Dowd declared
himself still misatlsfied, and aimounced that at
the next meeting of the board he would intro-
doce a resolution or ordinance, whichever may
be the more advisable, defining the exact sta-
tus of the show, so that hereafter the city will
not be In danger- of losing any money on It.
As a mere statement of fact, and not as any-
thing, having a bearing on tbe proceedings in
this matter, it may be set forth that the Buf-
falo Bill management, for some reason or other,
lias, this year, entirely- forgotten' to send
around to the: office of the.snpervlsots, .tbe usual
thlek bundle of - complimentary admission tlck-
eta.'"--'-'- ■

Observations of the Stroller
Modesty is the cardinal virtue, loyalty is often described as being so, and
hnniiUty is undoubtedly a noble trait, but tbere can be no doubt that vanity
ia more, useful than either of the two, when it comes to getting along in this
scrappy old sphere. Jerome K. Jerome,
the English writer, avers that "all Is
vanity, and everybody's vain." Per-
haps. But there is one Individual,
right here in these United States
whose vanity (if he possesses any at
all) may be likened to the smallest
known article' referred to by writers
in speaking of things inflnitesmal-
the mustard seed. This party has- a
predilection for histrionic honors
however, his ambition does not soar
to the highest pinnacles of his chosen avocation. Nay, he Is content with minor
theatrical engagements; he cares not for the leading role. Xot he. Witness
the proof of his modesty, in the following advertisement which he- caused to
be inserted- In a number of Western dramatic papers: "WANTED-^Bngage
ment, small part such as dead body or outside shouts, preferred." : Can any
fairminded person accuse this young man of being vain?.
Harry S. Hopping wrote recently:
Editor the Stroller.
Dear Sir: — "I was going through some papers to-day and found the en-
closed clipping. It might be worth publication. I shall not mention -the name
of the paper, as they treated me all right, but it's from Iowa.
"Heire's the clipping: .
"Various entertainments are scheduled for this week here . The Junior
L-eague of the Methodist church had an ice cream and candy social at the Fred
Farmer house. Tuesday evening, the 15th. There Is to be a total eclipse of
the sun at 6:00 P. M., June 17th. The Toung People's Union of the U. P.
chiirch win have a market day sale, June 19th, and there is a ball game for
the 17 th. Some amusements, Sh?" - -•
Ge^ge Drury Hart, leading man at the Gayety Theatre, Hoboken, in
Corse Payton 8 Stock Company, entertained his company at his bachelor

brook and Cecil Lean have come home. Last
night the andience was there with bell-clappers
and flowers and a riot of welcome." O. L.
Hall, of the Joomal, remarks about the cast
as follows: "The company Includes Vera Fin-
lay, who Is yetf pretty and very pleasing: W.
H. Brownlee, a good actor with plenty of go;
Adelaide Sharpe, a dialectic sonbrette; Arthur
Conrad, a splendid dancer: and Percy Lyndal,
who Is as fussy as an old lien with one chick-
en. There Is one little dark-haired choras
girl, unidentified In the program, who dances
wonderfully well."
Amy Leslie, of the Dally News: "Bright
Eyes, as rushed through with and whizzed by at
the Colonial last night is a -variety act with
Cecil Lean, a pleasant young entertainer, and
Florence Holbrook, an agreeable singer, as tbe
chief participants, with dozens of people all
arouad them contlnnally changlngf Ihelr clothes,
but neither adding anything to the show nor
making golden hay while the two stars shine."
Frederic Hutton, of the Post: "Bright Eyes
la a anslcal develiqiment of tbe old farce. Mis-
takes Wai Happen, wUcb. rounded out with
tbe Hoschna airs and the Galtes opnlent man-
ner of production, makes a good evening's en-
tertainment of the frlToIons sort."

sitoatlOB and Val^ his facts, he would have
discovered sevoal Interesting things that would
have pot ian end to Us contentions once and
for all. In the first place, a great bulk of tbe
variety houses In England have so drink licenses
at all. Certainly In London a license for a
new bouse Is never now granted; In 'the second
place In ninety ^five per cent promenading
women are not allowed; and thirdly, tbe most
estate managers these days are those who
realize tliat. In order to be a enccess, the
music ball must be tlie idace to which a man
can take Us vUe . and , family. When Mr.
McEee has Hpald another and perh^ longer
visit to BoEland^ v be wUI, ' ne donbt, begin to
recognize these . facts and the fntUlty^of bis
remarks Quoted above. ■

Is an excellent plaiee for afternoon tea.
'MUSIC SiLUS.
Hiss Lala Salbint. the sliapely bicycle girl, so
well known in America, has oeen engaged by de
Cottens ssd Marinem fw the sew revne. Viva
Paris. In the past she has done only her own
very fetching act, but in the revue she will have
a real role, and so will blossom out into a foil
fledged actress.
At tbe Folies-Bereere, the ballet, Les Ailes
(The Wings) Is- stul a big one. The flying-
girls and Otero, the dancer, are the big at-
tractions.
At the Mailgny, M. de Max, Mme. Vera Ser-
gine, Mme.' Germatne Gaullois, and other big
stars of .France, are drawing ble houses- to La

Following are comments taken from tbe va-
rions reviews of the critics on the Chicago
dailies:
: Constance Skinner, of The CMcago American;
"Three MUllon DoUars la dUidayed enUcIhgly
at the OilCBBO Opera Honse. It' la an aUntiiis
title, bnt not more so than the prodnetlm."
Percy Hammond, of The Chicago Tribune:
"It -was discovered to be one of those things
-with girls, tones, comedians and the wisp of
a plot, a cross between -a 'potpourri' and a
■mdange,*- an Inoffensive confusion neither very
bad nor very good."
Eric Selamarter, of Tlie Inter-Ocean: "There
la Johnny Ford, who dancea with vim, who
labors hard to produce real laughing material
ont of lines and situations. There is Lonls
BimoD as the valet, who appears for some clever
contortion work and Is legitimately f nnny with
bits of excellent pantomime. There. Is Ada
Meade, whose relation to the piece aeema to be
that of ofilcial high soprano olfllnto to every-
thing that concerns tlie. eaaemNe: .There la
Dorothy Brenner, who dances prettily and re-
cites in lien of singlug. Frances Alain, as a
French charmer; also dances enthusiaatlcaUy
and sings well; she recites, too, by preference.
And there Is May Boley to lend the aid of her
comedy experience."
Frederic Hatton, of Tbe Post: 'The theat-
rically unaophlatlcated person will find much to
enjoy In Three Million Dolian, now In circula-
tion at the Chicago Opera Honae."
Amy Leslie, The Dsily News: "The piece
boasts considerable vim, lots of hsppy com-
edians, one wonderful dancer, one beautiful
singer and plenty of the nsutl other accom-
paniments Inaisted niion by those strange beings
who regard mnstcal comedy In tbe light of
revelry.'^

Motion Pictare Censorsiupi.
There is Journalism and Journalism. Nobody will deny that the press
Is the greatest Influence for reform. It is a general acceptance of this tact
that has lead publishers and editors Into sensational muck-raking for the mere
sake of booming circulation and gaining readers. The metropolitan dally Is
forever and eternally finding something to reform. This is all well enough.
The trouble is that they do not seek reform in places where reform Is most
needed and where abuses are most flagrant.
The New York World recently hit upon the scheme of reforming the New
ToPk Board of Censorship. It claimed remissness and dereliction of diity In
the espionage maintained over the motion picture but-put. . .
The New York World Is making a sensational crusade where the manu-
facturers of motion pictures themselves entered In for quiet and unsensational
reform. It stands to reason that the manufacturer of motion ' picture films
Mi0> has an eye to the perpetuation of the business, and who sees the neces-
sity and advisability of husbanding the sympathy and confidence of the public,
is Just as eager that all films be within the prescribed boundd .«C morality and
decency as the New York World, the interests represented by the New York
World, or the New York World's readers can possibly be.
The only reason that the manufacturers of motion picture films are com-;
• bating this newspaper crusade is because of the method in which the crusade
is l>elng conducted. The budgel has been taken up by the. newspaper ia a
r manner calculated to do great barm to those manufacturers who have pro-
ducedmothlng but clean films as well as to those who are guilty of the ofCense
• against which the paper is crying.
The frequent diatribes against motion pictures that have been printed
in the columns of the' World during the past few weeks have > undoubtedly
tended to detract very materially from the attendance of the motion plc-
' ture^ thea:treB. not only In New York City, but throughout the country;
where, following the lead of the metropolitan criterion, other papers have
taken up the hue and cry — ^not because of any good they wish to accomplish,
--not because of any evil ; Influences or contaminating associations from which
they wish to save their readers, but because the subject offers a wide field of
' paniblllty from the sensational standpoint. ' ' . ' -
Inquiring into the causes that brought about the attack upon the Board of
Censorship, we find that they were not thoroughly assimilated by the reform-
ing. C?> organ before the attack was instituted. In the first vlace, many of
the pictures specified aa unworthy of presentation before the motion picture
audience were produced and distributed in the pioneer days of the industry by
filibustering manufacturers who were looking more to immediate gain rather
than to a steady and gradual building up of confidence, and the patronage in-
cident thereto, in the 'motion picture exhibition. Conditions have clianged in
the last few years. "The quality and the character of motion picture subjects
and films have been indefinitely ameliorated and Improved.
The professed purpose of the New York World and other newspapers .In
raising an outcry against motion pictures Is the protection of their readers; of
the American public, if you will, from innocent and unintentional contact with
the immoral and suggestive sometimes encountered In the motion picture the-
atre. But the vehemence of the attack is not to.be Justified on the grounds of
such expediency. The spirit of our Puritanical ancestors is stiU strong enough
in the constitution of the average American to give rapid generation to the
seeds of prejudice against motion picture , shows shown by biased edlto-
. rials against them. So the innocent and unsophisticated attendant, who has
enjoyed his frequent visits to the motion picture exhibition, as broader intel-
lects enjoy bigger excursions, concludes from the newspaper attacks that he Is
guilty of rather an inordinate form of dissipation and deprives himself of his
little luxury. ,
In this way the newspapers, through their desire to appear virtuous,
while cunningly adding to their circulation, are guilty of depriving a more or
less large percentage of their readers of an amusement and recreation that in
itself is more innocent, more innocuous, than the reading of the sensational
. stories, the reports of scandal and of violence printed in the columns of those
same papers. It Is an Instance where the end does not Justify the means, an
instance of imposition of the press upon the prerogatives of Its freedom.
The ChUd, the Stage and the Genrjr iSia^
through Its enforcement of an Ohio law regulating the employment of
minors, the Gerry Society has again come Into prominence in the Buckeve
State. Again overlooking the factories and the sweat shops, it has pounced
down upon the stage as Its prey. It Is very voluble regarding the evil in-
fluences of the theatrical profession on the young and impressionable mind.
But Its theories are all wrong and Its practices likewise. How much better
oft Is the child who appears for a fpw hours every week before the foot-lluht-s
than Is that neglected, youngster who lolls with tired muscles In the vitiated
atmosphere of the factory or the sweat shop. How much better off even ia
this child of the stage living in hotels, sleeping between clean sheets, eating
wholesome food, than the off-spring of poverty-stricken parents whose life
Is contamlnnted by the morally evil Influences ofva bad home, even though
he attends the publlq schools regularly, while he Is half fed. poorly clothed
and .ptherwtae; uncared for. The child of the stage Is learning the lesson of
Itfe^ : He Is Imbtding whether or no, the rudiments of an education that Is
superior and lera elemental than that of the waif of humanity who has a per-:
manent home though a bad one, who goes to bed early, albeit In a crowded
rooix between unsanitary bed clothes, and whose dally life is a monotony of
unbroadenlno' asnnclattona and vltlnting Influences. The child of the tenemeni
is usually withdrawn from school before the attempts at education made upon
him have had any material result. He goes to work at menial employment.
amid contaminating surroundings and for a pittance that goes a very short
way toward relieving the stringency of the family treasury.
The Influence of the stage on the child may not in all eases tend towards
his nplift. but the Gerry: Society' usually -shows little discrimination, and their
work Is for this reason worse than neutralized.
Insuiamw Affainst the Elements in England.
Insurance methods have been very highly systematized In EngIand.'The-
atre managers may insure against loss by forced closing of their houses on
account of the death of a member oC the royal family.' Manufacturers may
insure against loss by strikes, and so on through an interminable number and
variety of causes and effects, for and against which people may wish tO' Insure
themselves.
The latest form of insurance is that established- for. the English park man-
ager against the elements. The plan Is to pay a big- retura on a snaall pr emi u m
for every day the parks are Closed, or lightly' attended, on account of rain.
The beneflt from such a system is obvious, and if Insurance companies
can derive profit from it in England.- where rains of any .considerable precipi-
tation: cover the entire country at the same, time, injuring business of all the
parks, and so rendering It necessary for the policies, to be paid .throughout
the country, the scheme would be obviously more advantageous. In America.
Why then would it not be a wise plan for the 'managers of parks all over the
country to combine in a mutual. insurance company for protection against the
elements? The sections ■ of the'ITnited States are:; so far .removed in their
extremities, the ratn- belts usually cover such a small' ^percentage of the country
at the same time, and the fine days throughoot the Summer so greatly out-
number those .npon which -rain tUIs. fhat'a company of this Idnd would be
sure to constitute a very great and miatertal : advantage to vpark managers
throughout the. land. ] •■
It Is worth looking into. Its merits ought to appeal to such progressive
spirits as J. J. Weaver. President of the National Pairk Managers* Association,
and others of his ilk. • '
Supererogation of Temperament. .
The development -of the artistic temperament is on the phenomena of
human nature. Some of our greatest prima donnas have spent ^elr child-
hood In poverty, serving as apprentices, milliners and .dressmaikers, errand
girls for shop-keepers, and in many other capacities, in which patience Is the
chief qualification and' the absence .of -anything In the way of nerves an ab-
solute necessity, or at least the aaserUveness of nerves, is Ignored and for-
gotten. But when these erstwhile apprentices, chore, girls and what not, attain
tu prominence or fame in the profession, either as prima donnas or dramatic
stars, they often develop a brand of nerves a'nd disposition of Irrilability
and a self-centered desire for comfort at any cost, that is wanting in those
who have been accustomed to luxury all their lives. No doubt then this
development of temperament Is deliberate and exaggerated. . It is' nourished '
and fostered in a superlative degree. It Is referred to in effectionate terms
and brushed up every day so that it may give the best effect.
A display of a supererogation of ■ temperament Is itot always Indicative
of an early period ot'poverty, but forbearance and patience being in them-
selves virtues, are also, badges of personality that wre not only to be envied,
but cultivated.
Being a Good Fdlow.
The aviator doesn't dissipate. He knowft that steady nerves, a clear
brain and a quick eye are necessary to his continuance. as a sentient mortal
upon this old earth. The acrobat abstains because at»tlnence la necessary- to
the best accomplishment of his work. The agent, the actor or the performer
has no such material consideration to keep him In the straight and narrow
path, and he Is constantly abusing his strength, profligating his talent, unless
he has that strength of will through ^hich he is enabled to forego the allure-
ment of being a good fellow.
The idea of being a good fellow Is often perverted. Weari'ng one's coat
sleeves shiny on the slick mahogany, while resting one's foot on a brass rail
and staring into a plate glass mirror, ornate with cut flowers and cut glass.
Is the usual conception of the habits that constitute being a good fellow. This
is all a mistake. The agent, the actor and the performer need clear heads
for the best accomplishment of their functions as much as does the aviator
and the acrobat. Anyhow, the good fellow who makes himself a good fellow
through the practice of the habits mentioned above Is usually Spoken of by
his friends and associates as "a good fellow, bat—
The Multiplicity of So-called Amusement Journals.
The evident success of the several leading amusement Journals has had
a tendency to create imitators, which aire at best merely parasites, living off
the prestige of those whom they seek to emulate: It would be well, therefore,
if the managrers of theatres , and traveling managers of attractions would
scrutinize IntelUgehtly the field of amusement Journalism, and encourage
only those papers~^hieh are in qposltton to give them aid. to tend toward the
ireneral progress of amusements, and to sen-e as instruments for the better-
ment of the profession. The manager of every theatre in the larger towns is
annoyed constantly by requests for courtesies from correspondents, so-called,
of cheap and unimportant amusement sheets that have no excusef for being. -
and for the:e1lmInaU6n of which the' profession of amusements would be better
off. Some of these papers are entirely unworthy, though they have 'by hook
or crook, managed to get through the post office at the second class mail rate.'
It would be well It every manager, local and traveling, would give this matter
careful and serious consideration.

Why Not a Municipal Theatre?
The city of Cincinnati . Is . distinct-
ive for two institutions. It Is the
only town In the country that owns a
railroad and the only one that owns
a university. In these two instances
Its progressiveness Is denxonstrated.
The Queen and Crescent railroad was
finished in the eighties, and is the
property of the people of Cincinnati.
It is now a leased road and It is be-
lieved that in course of time It will
become a very profitable and valuable
asset.
The, University of Cincinnati ranlis
among the leading colleges of the
country. It is maintained upon the
public school fund, and numbers
among its alumni the most famous
men and women of the country.
A city that owns a railroad and a
university might and really ought to
go a step further and build a theatre
for Its own unhampered operation.
There is plenty oiC room for it and. the
patronage It would Incur womld- not In
the least detract from thatJ of the
other theatres operated by private
capitaL We base this theory not alone
upon the rapid growth of Cincinnati
: In popniation, wealth and . apprecia-
tion of the artiistic. and Intellectual,
but also upon the fact that when a
second first-class, theatre was opened
In Cincinnati a few years ago. Inste^^d
of / dividing the : patronage ■ with ;.ttaO
established house, it created - such a
spirit of theatre-going in the city,
that . both • houses have been doing
better' business from the time - of its
opening;- -than any -theatre in Cincin-
nati ever did before.
Iti is not probable that the opening
of a municipal- theatre would meet
with any opposition 'from the theatre
interests themselves^ At least ; any
opposition could be - overcome In Its
tncipiency by the logical presentation
of the faots recited above.
' We have talien Cincinnati as an
'example 'simply - because she owns a
railroad and a ; university and has
thus far manifested a spirit of prog-'
ress not observable in the mimlcipal
af(airs~bt any other to-wh. in the coun-'
try. To the same degree, howeveir,
there is' just as miich reason In the
premises for the Inauguration of a
municipal theatre by any other town
that might -wish to add its ci'vic influ-
ence to th'e, developmOnt of the dra-
matic art In ite ^citizens.
Theatre managers might do well to
encourage the Institution of such a
plan in any city government upon
the same principle by which the mil-
liners, music' stores, haberdashers and
Jewelers.- group themselves together
for the. encouragement of -tbe-bnying~ -
spirit in the public. The muIUpUca-
tlon or at least the reasonable In-
crease of first-class theatres In. any
city might .be encouraged. ,
Conservatioii of Amusements.
Conservation Is the order of the
day. Conservation Is sounded on all
sides. Conservation of our national
and natural resources; comiervation
of our! £sheries, of bur timber and
our -waterways; conservation - of- the
public bealth through the opening of-
play grounds' for the children, breath-
ing spaces where they may romp and
gambol under open skies, or in the
shade of healthy trees.'
■Why- -would: It not then be reason-
able. Pa well as practicable for the
-various cities throughout- the coun-
try to reserve spaces as nearly central
as possible, for circuses, carnivals and
other wholesome exhibitions of the
same, nature and character? -These
Show ; lots could be utilized -for play
grounds,: baseball or football grounds,
for -picnic parks or for many other
purpcees When not actually occupied
by the occasional circus or carnival
aggregation.
If such conservation Is ever to be
effected, ' a' beginninK will have to be
made soon, and that beginning -will
have -to be made by the encourage-
ment ■ or . Inculcation - of tlie idea by
those''Who are -interested in open air
amusements. The permanent open air

every nweelE in > the.' summer; but if
centrally - locateid. groupds were re-
served .for the oo^Ional- 'exhibition of
the;hetter cdass of sho-ws, , there- Is lit-
tle doubt- that the' projTCj:' wofuld -meet
with 'success, both from a municipal

The Passing of a, Prejndice.
In. most sections of . the., United
States' the popular prelvdlce against
show folk has disappeared. This prej-
udice was given .Inception In differ-
ent sections by different causes -and
for various reasons. --Inv eld New Eng-
land It was the prejudice against the
actor and the showman engendered
in the minds and inculcated' through
the teaching of our Puritan ancestors.
In the Mlddlewest this prejudice was
tempered down by environment, but
another prejudice existed beside it,
built up on the Idea that circus folk
were not entirely respectable. In the
south the prejudice was due to an-
other cause. Down there the people
believed that the advent of the circus
was the occasion for the negroes and
poor white trash to fill themselves
with cheap whiskey and go on a ram-
page.
These prejudices have l>een .sup-
planted by a modem reapect for the
circus as an institution. The actor
long ago was received into respect-
able society. There does' not exist
today any adverse prejudice against
the circuses in the minds of the peo-
ple as a whole. -but the courts never
fail to take advantage : of a sort of
bias that seems to permeate them
when the question of a showman's
guilt or Innocence, freedom or incar-
ceration is under consideration. We
have instances of it every week
through the : circus season whenever
a man or woman, who is in any way
connected with the circus , buslnea Is
haled int.. court. : The nature, of their
profession .Is against their getting- a
fair and honest dedslott. When it is
a matter of : money the courts - seem
to work on the theory that the circus
is a parasitical Institution, that moneys
runs into It <^'wlthout expense, and that
It is up to them to get all they can.
They usually do. The ■ circus pro-
prietor is helpless. When It is a ques-
tion, of life or Uberty the chances of
fairness and Justice are ' -Jnst-<^as"n=*"
mote.
There Is one solution of this diffi-
culty.- A central fund might be cre-

made an . Instrument f or . the regulsi-
tlon of licenses, and other : predatory
laws and ordinances. It could be
maintained, through the subscription
of amounts proportionate- -with an
assessed value of the various shows,
and only the shows represented could
participate in the benefits.
There Is strength In an organisa-
tion, and such an -organisation -would
be sure to be prolific of good results.

anybody, no matter what form ot ex-
pression he has chosen, that has In
any way compared with Shakespeare

view, humanness and the qualities ap-

in all his works. Shakespeare lived
at least two centuries ahead of Itls
time in literature. It Is marveloiw
to contemplate his work in the ag-
gregate and to realize the tremendous
amount of energy the man must have
brought to bear In acquiring the fund
Of knowledge that made this work

DID SHAKESPEARE USE SCENERY?
An Erudite Treatment of a Much Discusse Question Embodying the Epitome of
^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^
By A SHAKESPEAREAN STUDENT.
There has always been a l4unentable
lack' of definite knowledge - about
Shakespeare and his activities. His-
tory has given us complete and satis-
factory blosrapbles of other great
men and women of the past, but of
Shakespeare's life we know but little.
What he did in his -wondrous lifetime
Is, of course, evidenced concretely by
the powerful collection of poems and
plays which he has given to the world,
but history has been so neglectful of
the great Bard of Avon — there is such
a singular absence of definite Informa-
tion concerning his career — and such
knowledge of him as has been handed
down Is so vagrue and shadowy that,
since his times, various attempts have
been made to discredit the greatest of
English poets: to prove him guilty of
plagiarism; to establish Bacon as the
real author of the writings attributed
to him, etc >
Some of these writers and speakers
who have attempted to discredit
Shakespeare, to question his title of
greathess, to dislodge him from his
niche In the Hall of ; Fame have per-
haps been actuated by honest motives,
but the greater number of these critics
have been prompted by desire to air
their alleged erudition and to achieve
auch notoriety as would be la flattering
unction to their souls;' or for mere
sordid, mercenary ■ reasons— thinking
that' their comments questioning the
authenticity of Shakespearean writ-
ings would enable them to sen a book,
or, perchance^ give them such pres-
tige on the lecture platform as would
benefit them financially..
But even as the giant thoroughbred
St Bernard dog Is- profoundly uncon-
scious of the attacks of a lot of yelp-
ing, snapping, mongrel curs, so the
mighty pervasive genius, of the igreat-
est delineator of human passions the
world 'has ever . known, whenever at-
tacked, forms into a tangible, over-
powering personality on the intellect-
ual horizon of the present day — ^ahd
the intellectual world— save the small
contingent of mercenaries, malcon-
tents and mental malformations-
does it scholarly and adoring homage.
In ho other age, before or since, has
such a genius lived. Never, until
Shakespeare came, had a human be-
ing appeared on this earth who could
run the whole gamut of human emo-
tions, passions, sentiments — ^who could

discover man's soul to himself. No
such master mind has since appeared,
and it is doubtful if the equal of his
genius will ever be manifested. Be-
reft his day of all else in intellectual
achievements. literary works and hu-
man deeds of every sort; blot out all
else of its history, and leave only
Shakespeare; and that day still shines
forth as one Of the brightest stars in
the diadem of time. I have -ever been
an ardent admirer of Shakespeare; a
loyal devotee before the shrine of his
unparalleled greatness, and so I be-
come pugnacious— perhaps unreason-
ably partisan- — when any attempt is
made to detract from his greatness
in his day or In his history.
It is not strange, therefore, being,
thus so enthusiastic in my loyal^ to
Shakespeare, that I should take issue
with Mr. Ben Greet and others, as to
the manner in which Shakespeare
presented his pla>-s.
When Mr. Greet first began touring
the country with his Shakespearean
company of actors, appearing at the
various colleges, and other educational
institutions throughout the country,
presenting his plays outdoors, on the
green .without scenery, claiming that
in SO doing he was giving an approxi-
mately exact reproduction of Shakes-
peare's method^ of producing his
plays, I took iaiae, mentally, with
him, drawing, 'perhaps, unconscious
deductions from what I had read, in
support of my views as opposed to
those of Mr. Greet In my time I have
read much, then forgotten It. and then
re-read It.
This is particularly true of literature
which has to do with the stage, the
drama and the theatre. All my life
I have been intimately associated with
people who were well versed In hl»»
toric lore. From them I.- have ob-
tained many facts which have In
time faded and dimmed- With
Shakespeare's works, although I have
read every line he wrote, and re-read
much of It. besides having seen his
works produced time and again, I was
not familiar In a scholastic sense: yet
I knew him in a way, through his
works. But my knowledge was not
specific. It was purely general. When
I first questioned the educational val-
ue of Oreet's productions; donbted bia
sincerity and scholarship, and -the
truth of his representations. I did
not have a single concrete fact upon
which to back my opinion. When I
declared to myseU and to others that
Mr. Grecft waa absolutely wrong in
his theory as to the manner In which
Shakespeare presented his plays. I
presume that I was prompted simply
by what may be termed common
sense. My attitude was the result of
a general impression that I bad
formed of Shakespeare and his time.
I knew that I had a definite opinion
on the subject, but I did not know
exactly how I had formed that
opinion. Then I began to think tba
matter over and gradually it came to
•me,-an*-my logic was about sa ttUr
lows: Shakespeare was a great play-
wright, the greatest ptoywrlght not
only in his time, but in all
time. Ho was also a great- actor.
He was also a manager. These three
facts told 'me" cleiarly arid poslUvelJl
that he must have been a great stage
manager — that he must have, been
versed in the art of stage craft I
knew that his plays were always first
produced under his personal super-
vision. It was Inconceivable that a
man who was clever enough to write
such plays should be so barren In re-
source, expedient and inventiveneaa
as to produce theni in the crude, cheap
and tawdry manmer that Greet, his au-
thorities, forbears, and others of his
ilk. would' have us believe. To me It
was unthinkable that a man of his

In the lease and the proflts of tbe bonse, be

Klaw and Erlanger sold the lease to the Chicago

In his complaint that he got only (30,000 as

He asks for tbe receivership In order that an

Brady says tbe sale of tbe lease should have

Bert Cole
Nearly Robbed
Bert Ode, orator and advertising agent with
tbe Hsgenbeck-Wallace Show, found himself
out $920 one day last week. It came about like
this: Mr. Cole had been accustomed to carry
tbla money In large denomination bills tucked
Into a little purse and secured In the small
watch pocket of bis trousers. Upon discovering
hlB losB when be arose one morning, lie Imme-
diately suspected tbe culprit, and offered Doc
Springer, who hsa cbarge of tbe sleeper, $100
reward for lis recovery. Mr. Ode also gave
Springer a clue, tiellevlng that be knew the vi-
cinity In which the atolen money had been con-
cealed. Springer made tbe search, ami with
commendnlile linnestv, turned the amount . over
to Mr. Cole, notwithstanding the latter thought
lie bad lost only $.S20, whereaa tbe amount
taken waa resllv ^30. Of course Mr. Cole
knows the Identity of the thief, but he main-
tains that having regained the lost amoant, am'
believing that the msn who took the money
li already snlTerlng tbe tortures ot an evil
coosclence, be has determined not to prosecute.
A HARROWING EXPERIENCE.
White the iracenbeck-Wallace Show was ez-
btbltlnc In Tirtnn, aeorgia, John Walker, aa-
datant boss hostler with the show, waa arrested
on the ehnrge of a negro, who Identllled Walker
aa the man who bad held bim up on the street
the night before, snd relieved blm of $<lo.
Walker waa arrested against tbe protests of all
the agents and those In authority with the show.
Inelnding Mr. Wallace. They all testified to
Walker'a good character and quiet habits, but
as tbe negro rislmed positive Identlflratlon.
Walket was sent to Jail, and the judge slated
that hia bond would tie placed at $20.oo0. In
the meinllme the showmen had tbe offlcrra with
the outfit arrest the man whom they believed
guilty of the mlibeiT. and who In addition tn
resembling Walker In sppearance, wore a hat
axartly like tiiat of the man charged with tiie
offenae. The negro refused to Identify this
man. however, and the antborttiea would not
bold him, seeming to believe that the showmen
bad some kind ot a scheme tor tbe talse AellT-
ery of Walker.
_In tbe meantime the reaoorcefuloesa ot Mr.
Wallace, Mr. Cory and the other ageDta waa
calli-d Into operation. They knew that on ac-
count <tf the prejmllce that ao obviously existnl
against abowmen In TIfton, and which manl-
watsd Jtaelr even In the attitude of the court.
Walker would be given a long sentence upon the
tnevltahle e«nv|etliin that would be the result
of bla trial, though he waa nnqneatlonably Inmi-
etnt. Being Imiinriuned. the court finally fixed
an appearance tmnd of $200 tor Walker, and
nleaaed blm. The people with the ahuw paaaed
tre under bis firm's name, preventing bla exer-
cising control or ownership over the lease.
Brsdy . received regularly an. accounting and
bis share' of tbe prpttts. . Tbe coiu'iJalut says
tbe theatre was valuable particularly for van-
devllle. Then came, the abandonmvnt . of the
"advanced vaudeville" scheme by Klaw and
Erinnger, , when they retired.
Brady says Erianger entered Into a contract
with the United Booking Offices by wlilrb be
agreed not to give .vaudeville In tbe Auditorium.
"This ,was done without my knowledge." allegea
Brady, "and was In violation of the partnership
agreement," he continues. . '*Tbe value of . the
lease waa lessened materially by the fact that
vaudeville could not be given there. If this
agreement had not been entered Into, tbe lease
would have been worth ^00,000." alleces Mr.
Brady.

Dear Friend: — ^Ton will no donbt be anrprlsed
to bear that I got back from South America laat
week as we were booked to atay' longer, bat 1
bad a terrible oiialortooe down there.- Mr wife,
wbo as fon know waa only twenty yean of age,
ud In perfect health, died of yellow fever In
the city of Para, which waa oar flrst atop.
We were there only about ■ week, and took
eTeiy possible precaution against tbe ferer,
stopping In tbe best hotel in tbe city, and eat-
ing and drioklog only what waa safe to for*
•tgnen. Tet, to spite of oar precantloa my
dear wife contracted tbe terer, and died aher
an Ulneaa of six days. Tbe blow was awful,
and I will never get over my grief, as I feel
as U I can never forgive myself for going down
to (ucb a dangerous cbnntry.
I waa assured before going that there was
abaolntely no danger, and it was only after I
arrived there that I beard tbat many Amerlean
paopl* (especially women) snccumb to yellow
carer.
Now I think tbat all American perforaers
shonld be warned to keep away from South
America, because a performer takea a very
big chance In going (and I speak from es-
pMenee).
Another bad feature about the place la that
Itvlng expenses sre enormoosly high there, and
It takes a pile of money to pay one'a way.
Kow I don't like to knock the country, as
tlw natives are very polite and kind, and Mr.
Oarvalho (the man who bnmght cnr acta down
there) .treated me with axecptlaial . kindness,
and did all be coold (W me.
It is a good place for the natives, aa they
are aecnstomed to the climate, but aa I men-

worth the attention of any one who is looking
for a substantial little play and sabstantlally

TSt. Keenan's eliaracterizations of tlie old Irish

power, touched with immor and with sweetness,
a complete Impersonation, and of concentrated
power. His playing of the final moments, with

THE CIRCUS OF THE PAST
Breezy Sketches of Performers and Notes of Those Who Link Round Top History to Fame.
Photographs from the Only Copies in Existence, and the Greatest Collection
in the World— In a Series of Ten Issues
By FRANK WINCH.
As a foreword, I wish to state before
commencing this series — which will
undoubtedly prove interesting' to not
only old timers, b-: those connected
with the arena to-day- — ^that my :. in-
tention Is not- to write a complete his-
tory.
The man does not live to-day that
can fully and completely chronicle!
events of an era long since passed to
memory — and those memories are to-
day largely memories of the dead.
Circus history we have had-^we
Icnow in a general way whence it came
and by whom — we know positively
many of the trials, the troubles, and
the Joys. My purpose is to give to the
reader, he who is devoted to the great-
est branch of amusement business the
world has ever or ever will Icnow, an
opportunity of j^ossessing some quaint
facts, copies of time-stained programs
and photograplis that cannot measure
their sentimental value in dollars.
A research that has covered a great
many montlis, a delving into old col-
lections sacred to the owner, and dif-
ferent chats with many of the gray
heads who once B.eauBrummeled in the
sawdust ring, have developed many in-
cidents, that, if ever in print, have
long since slipped to the oblivion,
enshrouding the character itself.
It is interesting to study the circus
in Its wagon day period. Possibly there
are some who ma malce invidious
comparison of the then and now. Just'
how they got along, what was said by
the press about the show, and what
the show paid for to have it said, and
how it Is handled to-day, should hold
the attention of many beside the press
agent.
Naturally, In commencing this series,
I start at the beginning, at least where
the first paragraph In circus history
was really written — P. T. Bamum
himself.
In an announcement made for the
season of 1879, Barnum lays the foun-
dation of the increditable. This very
announcement could easily prove a
summing up of the man himself, it's
a masterpiece. Just the twang to it that
made Barnum a by-word in every
clime, incidentally has set a standard
for nearly every show since to Imitate
at least in announcements.
Read it.
"All the requirements I claim to pos-
sess, and do possess, for a continued
success of half a century, has enabled
me to Invest hundreds of thousands of
dollars in attractive features, all of
which I have concentrated in my One
Single Greatest Show on Barth. in
which will be found the most expen-
sive, novel and marvelous attractions
hi the world.
"No other showman in this or any
other country possesses my facilities
or advantages, therefore it follows that
my show is without parallel, and be-
yond and defiant of any and all rlvalrj".
It has no equal, and I assert it never
will be surpassed exce. t by myself in
the future.
"Whenever I discover anything new,
or hear through my agent of any nov-
elty which JI think will please my mil-
lions of patrons, I GET IT, whether
it costs a thousand dollars or fifty
thousand dollars, for I am determined
.the public shall see everything that is
worth seeing, regardless of cost.
"Among the principal features of My
Greatest Show on Earth for the season
of 1879, will be found the largest, most
interesting, most costly, and beyond
comparison the rarest aggregation of
wild animals In any traveling menag-
erie in the world.
"To the perfecting of this grand zo-
ological collection, I have made earth,
sea and air pay trit .itc, and my brave
rangers, hunters and agents have trav-
eled to the uttermost parts of the earth
to complete It; braving the dangers of
the jungle, the miasma of the morass,
the arid, burning plains, the snows of
the polar circle, tl.e simooms of the
desert, the ferocious cannibals of the
African forests, and 'the pestilence
that walketh by noonday' in the dread
lagoons and poisonous swamps of In-
dia. This superb and only exhaustive
zoological collection in the United
States, contains more costly and rare
specimens of natural history, more
monsters of the deep, rare birds,
strange fishes, reptiles, amphibia, and
wild denizens of every clime and coun-
try, than have ever been before pre-
sented to the public, and form a vast
living school of instruction, where the
student may spend hours in wondrous
contemplation. looking 'from Nature
up to Nature's God.*
"In addition to magnificent speci-
mens of the feline species, such as
lions, tigers, etc., graminivorous ani-
mals, such as the eland and various
beautiful specimens of antelopes, the
visitor win find the only two-horned
rhinoceros ever exhibited in America,
which cost me $16,000.00; a black,
double-humped camel, a most beauti-
ful animal, covered with fine, glossy,
silken hair, as dark as Erebus. And
by his side. In strong contrast, another
double-humped camel, perfectly white.
"These are the only real genuine
black or white camels which have been
exhibited in America, and were Im-
ported this spring a: a larger expense
than has ever before been paid by any-
one, and no person could, for $20,000,
obtain a pair equal to them in all re-
spects.
"Another marvelous curiosity will
be found in the remarkable anomalous
pachyderm, from the interior of Africa,
which even the savants of Europe have
not been able to classify. It has the
head of the hippopotamus, the tusk
of the elephant, the hide of the rhin-
oceros, the body of the lion, and the
feet of a camel. It weighs nearly two
tons, and has been rimed from its
peculiar form and strange combina-
tion, ' the elephantus-hlppo-parodoxus,
as it paradoxically combines several
animals in one.
"In this collection will be found a
herd of eleven elephants, from the
ponderous full grown giant of Ceylon,
to the diminutive African, standing but
three feet in height, among them being
the most perfectly trained, intelligent
performing elephants In the world.
"A colony of two hundred monkeys,
from the enormous orang-outang and
himpanzee to the baby monke^ weigh-
ing less than a pound, together with
many attractions which will be more
fully described elsewhere.
"While most exhibitions advertise
more animals than they possess, and
many which the advertisers never saw,
I hereby solemnly agree to forfeit and
pay $50,000.00 if the proprietors of
any menagerie now in the country can
show that they have incurred the same
expense, and if an equal number of
rare wild animals was ever before seen
In any traveling extiibition in this
country or in Europe, or anywhere on
the face of the whole earth. I am
thoroughly In earnest In making this
proposition, and pledge my honor and
my money for Its due fulfillment.
, "I desire also to call particular at-
tention to what last season proved to
be, one of the most popular and most
Interesting exhibitions I have ever
brought before the public. I refer to
my magnificent stud of twenty royal
stallions, for which I paid $100,000^
They are from the stables of the Em-
peror of Russia, late King of Italy, the
Imperial Ecuries of Poland, and those
of the Grand Khan of Tartary.
"They have continued during the
vacation tinder the charge of their ac-
complished trainer and exhibitor. Mr.
Carl Antony, and in addition to the
wonderful and beautiful feats which
elicited such universal admiration last
season, will appear in a number of new
and most Interesting feats and evolu-
tions.
"The Colossal Pavilion, containing
the great Oriental and European Mu-
seum, Will atlord more interest, amuse-
ment and instruction than all the com-
bined attractions of any other show
that travels, comprising as it does a
vast collection of natural curiosities,
from all parts of the civilized and un-
civilized world, from every zone and
from every country, together with life-
like, automatic, mechanical marvels.
Col. Goshen, the great living giant, the
tattooed Greek •nobleman, and other
human phenomena never befor.e seen,
and which no other exiUbition can pre-
sent. A feature of peculiar attractive-
ness is the wonderful anomaly called
the 'mysterion lady,' who. while pleas-
ing everyone by her exquisite and clas-
sical beauty, the bewitching expres-
sion of her face, the grace of her move-
ments and the Ineffable sweetness of
her speaking eyes, leaves all in doubt
whether it is a vision or reality—-
whether she is endowed with life tr
only a lovely myth — whether of ex-
quisitely moulded flesh and blood, or
but a marvelous piece of most subtle
and ingenious mechanism.
"Determined that each of the various
departments of my greatest show on
earth should excel in attractiveness
anything I had ever befbre attempted,
1 have secured more noveltlesifor 1879,
in addition to those of last year, than
comprise the entire stock of any other
traveling ' show, and besides tBose al-
ready enumerated, I have added to the
circus department the ' greatest array
of talent which was ever combined in
one exhibition, simply because I have
been a' le to outbid all competitors by
paying more munificent salaries than
were ever before paid to equestrian
performers. In proof of this, I- have
only to mention my galaxy of star lady
riders, comprising the beautiful and
all-surpassing Mme. Dockrill, Miss
Katie Stokes. SIgnora XJnda Teal, and
Miss Emma. Lake, the four most beau-
tiful, accomplished and popular eques-
triennes In the world. In the com-
pany will be found the most expert
and dashing of athletes, wrestlers,
tumblers, trapezists, leapers and equil-
ibrists, as well as the most witty and
comical of clowns, and the most accom-
plished and facile general performers,
forming an exhibition at once amusing,
thrilling, beauUful and interesting, and
free from every gross and questionable
feature.
'^The expense of this vast conglom-
erate of novelties Is not less than
$3,500.00 per day. I state this for a
fact, and will forfeit and pay $10,009
to any" person who can shavv that the
bare expenses of nmnlHK my establish-
ments during the past six year.s has
not averaged more than the entire
grross receipts -of any other show dur-
the same time, which has ever traveled
either in this country or Europe, and
in.maldng this offer. I promise every
facility for learning the fact.
"I never advertise anything which I
do not possess, and do not exhibit, but
I do not advertise more than one-half
of the many things which are con-
tained in my own greatest show on
earth, for i have not the space to men-
tion them. It will be readily seen by
my patrons that 1 offer Store for less
money than any one else in the busi-
ness, and were my show diminished
by two-thirds. It would still be large*'

St. Louis, having disposed of her annual fall
festivliies week, and a week of alrsliip coutesu,
began last week with the International Balloon
Kaces, all of wuich proved must suceettsf ul from
every staudpului. The balance of the season of
1010 we will look to our theatres for amuse-
ment.
Ibe many little vaudeville and picture thea-
tres are reporting good business, and lu many
cdsea the Increase over last year has been
marked. We are still building new theatres of
.bis kind, and some of them are more like
palaces than pictures theatre*. It has been
noticeable tbat the larger vaudeville circuits are
now furnishing the acts for these theatres, which
shows the healthy growth In this class of amuse-
ment. Ihe only event of importance in sight at
this time is the interest taken In the opeaias
Of the New Sam S. Sbulierc Memorial. W.
Albert Swasey, of New York Is the architect,
and most all the furnishing were provided by
local houses. The electrical lllumluatlon will
be especially brilliant, and the house will have
a sesLlug capacity of over 1,600. On the lower
floor there are Oi^ orchestra seats; 460 seats In
the balcony and 460 seats In tbe gallery. The
general cuiur scheme of the auditorium is gold
and I'ompeilan red, and Is carried tlitoughout
the house. The stage is built with the view of
accommodating with ease the largest of offerings.
It is 75 feet in width and 78 feet in height.
The sixteen dressing rooms are equipped with
every modem convenience. Tbey arc all under
the stage. On the first floor u a luxuriously
furnished woman's retiring room and a men's
smoking room. There are 10 exits to the

will be found in the Middle States in the early
summer.
Tin* Great Olympic SIiows, of which Macy and
Main are managers, are finding good business
south of the Missouri line. They report tbat
the>' have had good attendances, and weather
being of the best, that they will be able to play
easy until they reach their southern bookings.
'Ihe coming election for St. Louis and Missouri,
and witb It tbe poaslble fate of state-wlda
problbiiion, has been of much concern to every
one iiere. The nearest approach to a possible
forecast of its effect was tbis week demon-
strated at the Nightingale Theatre here. Mr.
Albert Igmn. tbe manager bad: the mlatartune
of being qniDted a< (avoiing jnolilbltiaa, and tbe
result was that hi* attendance at his theatre
shrunk from 300 a night t9 a ponlble 40.' Mr.
Lynn now has an affidavit banging In tbe window
of his box ofiice, and bis business Increased to
400 tbe following nigltt.

ford Circuit of theatres In this city last week.

The strike on tbe street car lines was olIlGlalty
declared oft last week by the union, and we are
now free to do as we please regarding the care
and whether we should ride In them. This
strike has been one of tbe most prolonged af-
fairs of the kind this part of the country ever
knew, continuing very nearly fourteen weeks. It
bas been the cause of much hard feeling and
expenditure of money. The theatres and parks
were among the chief sufferers, and the different
managers were all greatly relieved when they
learned It was over.
The contract for the new theatre being erected
by Dr. S. B. Hartman, of Peruna famo, was let
Isst week t6 a firm of St. Louis contractors, for
the sum of $281,000, which only Includes the

THE BILLET DOUX OF A TENOR
By GEORGE CECIL.
Ever since <be earliest days of opera, the
primo tenore has been the fortimate recipient
of coimtless love letters. The father of Manni^
Garcia doubtless received many; GuIgUnL sweet-
est of singers, is said to bave spared what time
be could from flying kites In the Brompton
Boad, London, to answering the amatory epis-
tles with which he was favored; Fancelll {whose
early education was somewhat neglected) em-
ployed a minion of his own race to reply to
the billets donx which poured In upon him,
■ and the domesticated Mario is supposed to have
banded over to his adored Grlsi many a written
declaration of love. Nor are the tenors of to-
day any less lucky, for though the British ora-
torla variety is left out in the cOld. Alvsres,
Baleza, ancl ABre, of tbe opera. Paris, bave
found their, way to the hearts of Innmnerable
Farislemies, -while for fully fifteen years Jean
de Reszke's mail has brought his scented notes
from unknown worshippers. Camso, Anselml,
Bond and de Lucia, also bave inspired Innum-
erable love letters, and it Is said that poor
Oemtminl (whose promising career was cut
short in the midst ot bis Covent Garden suc-
cesses) had serlons thoughts of learning Eng-
lish, that be might reply at length to the I.on-
don ladies -who adored Mm. In this connection.
It should be noted that the German contingent
!■ not held In the same esteem as are French
and Italian tenors; well fed Lohengrlna and
Tannliansers' evidently do not Inspire a fatal
passion.
' A snccessfnl and popular tenor, who divides
bis time between London. New Tork. Buenos
Ayies. Berlin. Milan, Paris, and St. Peters-
burg, has ample opportunity for studying woman
In an her complex and fascinating moods. Cn-
eiHiventlonal Englisb ladles," who have not gone
through the formality of an Introduction write
to blm, offering to "caU at bis hotel at what
ever hour suits his convenience." "I don't know
Ftanch or Italian." recently wrote a forward,
person to the distingnished Signer Beltsslma-
Voce, "but I'm sure you will understand me
because yon sing so divinely. I was too ahy
to write to you in Naples," she continued, "but
now I feel bolder. ... I bave been to tbe
opera every night you bave sung, and I sit
near the orchestra so that I ma; see yon quite
plainly. Of course the tnunpets and all tbat,
are rather horrid, so near, - you know, but I
don't mind a trumpet or so if I can tie near
yon." Other Engllsbwomen express themselves
differently — some better and others even worse —
but their eSnalons invariably are couched In the
same strain. They are rarely written In Italian,
thongb a number are In British French, the lan-
guage being thoroughly tmderstood by tbe al-
luring SIgnor. When French Is the medium
employed, phrases from operas are occasionally
utilized. An enamoured Miss quotes the first
line of Isabelle's great air,- Bobert toi que
J'alme. aubstltnting tbe name of tbe adored
one for that of Meyerbeer's hero,, and other
lovelorn ladles embellish their missives with
equally appriqirlate quotations. Occasionally,
these adventurous persons sign their letters
with the sender's name, but It is usual to
adopt an initial or pseudonym.
The amorous epistles which reach Signer Bel-
llsalma-Voce wben be is in Vienna or Berlin
are not particularly Interesting. Their compo-
sition Is matter-of-fact; they do not suggest
the ardor of an Italian or French woman. The
Fran or FVaolein who has fallen a victim to the
beanfy of bis onlqne voice, or to bis physical
attractions, expresses . herself la the following
manner:—,
"I have again beard yon sing, and so charmed
am I tbat I almost wish to make your ac-
quaintance. Come then to the Oraben, the
church end, at three this afternoon, that I may
see yon off the stage, and In the every-day
costume of a gentleman. I will gaze and I
may make known myself to you. Never bave
I been so Impressed with Goldmark's beautiful
music"
It will be noted from the above tbat the lady
is a coy puss, that she prefers to admire from
a distance. Bat If the circumspect daughters
of the Fatherland are a little retiring, the pas-
sionate damsels of tbe South (whose cheeks
are, as the poet has it, fanned by balmy
zephyrs,) suffer from no such restraint. Letters
of an ardent description are frequently left at
the stage-door, together with the lire which
ensures their safe delivery: —
"Thy beautiful voice means more to me than
I can say! My carriage will await thee at the
comer of the street after the performance.'
My impatience la tmmensel How I long for
thy kisses!"
If the tenor is but a susceptible mortal, the
chances are that he will lavish his "bacci"
upon the charmer whose innamorata he Is, even
foregoing the customary bis which his soul
loves, that the happy meeting may not be de-
layed. Sometimes the pampered artist prefers
the Bologna sausages ana other garlic flavoured
dishes In which tbe Italian singer dellghu, to
tbe flattering attentions of bis admirers,
A close study of these btllets-douz reveals
the fact that some are written by ladles who
do not love their lords; others by foolish virgins
who seek amusement at the expense of their
reputations; and a few by women whoso vanity
has got the better of their discretion. If there
is a rivalry between two bosom friends, tbe
one may try to cut out the other by making
eyes at the tenor during the performance. She
may even scribble a note to the fascinator on
her program, borrowing her rival's pencil for
the purpose. An attendant Is despatched with
the letter, and If a reply is forthcoming, tba
sacred friendship of years Is destroyed, and all
for the sake ot a man who doesn't care two-
pence for either lady. If, however, tbe object
ot their adoration merely writes on bis etrd
that bis affections are engaged elsewhere, the
threatened break may be averted.
Although tbe opera stage Is rich In barltonts
and noble bassos, the tenor has his pick of th>
love-letters. A certain French Don Giovanni
(who baa enchanted many a Covent Garden
habitue) baa certainly received much atten-
tion, especially In bis own country, but It Is
reserved for SIgnor Belllsslma-Voce to dlstanc*
all competitors. Consequently, wben he li In
Paris, the French woman who falls « vlctlin to
his conquering sway forgets all about Don Gio-
vanni, and writes thus to Don Ottavio: —
"I have Just como from bearing thee ilnt
and I adore thee more than ever! Ahl what a
beautiful voice, so sweet, so tender, and so full
of emotion — And thou departest tomorrow KS"'
Ing. Let as ho happy one time more. After
singing, dress thyself c^ulckly, and come to
It should bo noted that a married tenor !•
not always accompanied by his long-suffering
wife. While the brcad-wluncr disports himself
In the gay capitals of Europe, she who sharei
bis Income stays at home, to snperlntcnd tot
children's education and to mend their stock-
ings. But If disconcerling rumors reach her,
she takes the flrst train for London. Berlin,

Theatre of varletiea. The erection of tbe; new
-theatres will represent an exiiendlture of some-
thing over tl,SOO.00O. In all. he will control
fourteen theatres, ten of which will be hi the
Iiondon srea. and wwked on tbe "exdnslve
^tem" In regard to artistes.
One of these theatres vrlU be at King's
Cross, facing three of tbe principal london
railroad termini. The buildings will cover an
area of 30,000 feet. This will be a fourteen
•howa a week. Tbe stage will be wide enough
and deep enough to allow of an arena and tank
of fall ContlDental circns slae to be Included
within Its limits, with a complete vieir of the
whole of It to be obtainable from all parts of

to allow of extremely low prices, ranging from
12 cents np to fifty.
Another of tbese Xllppodrames will be buUt

Ellburn, and still anotber-^wblch is to seat

will be oerved by the best artistes on the Stoll
tour, and as they are all la ncltfbborboods where
only leeond rate entertainments have hitherto
osnally been obtainable they all ought to make
big aucceases.
Ineldenuny. I don't think that , the sbare-
holders In the Moss Empires will altogether
break their hearts over Still's departure— genius
though he be In msnaging this kind of enter-
tainment. At the last meeting of tbe company
very bitter complaints were made becauae the
individual StoII enterprises were doing so very
much better than those he msnased for the
laoas combinations, and earnest desires were
raised for the employment of a managar who
would'devote AIs whole time and Interest to
their business. l?o now, perbsps, all parties
win be bappy.
In iD'Arcy of the Guarda, Oeorge Alexander
has hit on a singularly Ingenuous type of play.
"The entire action of the piece,'" says the
program, "takes place In Philadelphia during
the occupation by the nrltlsh troops In the
autumn and wlnier of 1T77-8. General Wash-
ington and the American Arm" were encamped
twenty miles from I'blladelphla at Valley 7arge.
^Is precise Information auKgests the scene and
the costumes. Olberwise, history has not much
part In the play. Many of the lines are ob-
viously destined to win the heart of all Ameri-
can patriots, but the plot and characters belong
to any period one cares to choose.
Pamela Townsend was a pretty American
girl, and a passionate adherent of Washington.
Her brother was an American ofllcer, and she
kept bis aweethenrt Ilvlna with her and her
ipaigniacant mother. When the Americans fell

PARIS NEWS LETTER
Mme. RejaneinaNew Role — Theatre Machinists Strike
Notes from Hither and Thither in Theatredoni
in the French MetropoKs
-A Few
Tlie entire output of pages in this edition of
The Blllboara Isn't going to be taken up by
an account of tbe new plays produced la the
French capital this week. Sotrcely. Hardly.
There haven't been any new plays.
Pretty easy, eb, getting that ^rtlon of this
letter oS my bands? But, not to be mean, I
shall mention the revival made at the theatre
of Mme. Gabrlelle Bejane. The play was
M'Amour (My I.ove), and so far as botb Mme.
Bejane and her theatre were eoncenied. It was
absolutely new. ,
M'Amour Is a comedy In three acts, b; Panl
Bllhaud and Maurice Hennequln, and was pro-
duced some years ago at the Palais Boyal. I
believe; anyway, at one of tbe Paris playbODses
and with another actress In the principal role.
However, Mme. Bejane might search farther
MME. GABRIELE REJANE.
At present having difficulty with stage machtn Ists at her theatre.
to receive another officer, who had been sent
back for the papers, and to band them O'cr
to blm as though nothing bad happened.
For flvo weeks Pamela nurses D'Arcy night
and day, and it was natural that she should
fall In love with i^e wounded hero. There are
one or two complications In regard to tbe
brigadier's suspicion ot her, and also with re-
gard to a minature she find on D'Arcy. which
she takes to be that of a sweetheart of bis, but
afterwards discovers that it Is really of her
mother— but finally all ends bapplly.
Deeplto the line figure of an offlcer tbat Alex-
ander makes in bis splendid uniform, he bas
struck <me of the worst parts tbat ever fell
to his lot, and wbat there la In the part at all
be has to pot there himself. Hvelyn D'AIroy,
as Pamela, was In an equally bad case. She
looked delightful, and she has one or two mo-
moments of passionate emotion, but the play Is
too flimsy even for her to make tbe part seem
real. Margery Maude was bcr.v sweet and
gracious as the American soldier's sweetheart,
and .J. H. Barnes plaved the part of the genial
old doctor to perfection. The reception on the
first nlgbi was quite favorable, but tbe play
Is hardly one over which London wlU go mad,
although It may Just manage to clear Ita ex-
pense*.
l^don't^qulto know whether It Is the play
Itaelt or the, curiosity of the. onMIe eoneemlng
Robert Iioralne who has been making jiut as
. \ (Continued on page 90.) .
and fare worse, for abe Is universally praised
for her interpretation, and, furttaermote, sbe
deserves tbe praise.
Antoinette, so the story goes (I have never
given an InkllDg ot the plot of tbe play be-
fore). Is beset by a problem. She~ has a lover
(of coarse), and tbe pnzsle Is whether It Is
better that the hnaband and the . lover shall
be friends or enemies. It isn't a questoon of
having a lover, but shall a respectable married
woman Introduce her lover to htfr husband, or
not. She decides they ought to be friends, and
in spite of Ducky's forebodings (Antoinette
calleil her lover m'amour and something cor-
responding with Ducky), she Introduces him to
hubby, nobby takes to Ducky like a parous
plaster to a chap's short rllis. and the flrst
thing you know the two are so Inseparable and
chummy tbat Antoinette can't get a word In
edgewise, as the sa.ving goes. Ilnbby Is a col-
lector of antiques, specializing in pots and
warming pans, and he pretty nearly works
pncky to death catnlosning bis collection. Los-
ing all hope In that direction, Antoinette takes
unto herself another lover.
Tbe moral of the play Is: Don't let your
Ducky and Hubby get too cbnmmy. Antoi-
nette ends by sowing the seeds of bitterest
hate between Ducky No. 2 and Duefcy No.
1, leaving Ducky No. I's chum out of the ques-
tion. He Is merely her husband.
Of course tbe piece vronld be barred in any
American or Engllsb tbeatre, but It takes that
sort of tblng to go over here. Mme. Bejane
is bully In the part. Young men are adviaed
to remain away if they llgure on taking tbelr
best girls.. Be keertol, yooog man, be keet-
fnlt
TBOHBI^ TBOtlBI.B.
There's always something agonizing amongst
the profession over here. Sometimes ' It's tbo
actor. Sometimes It's the employe ta stsge
band. Sometimes It's the manager. Tbe canae
is always the same thing — money. And tbe
way I look at it and the way yoa would look
at It, tbeatre employes ARB NOT paid enough
over here. Their wages are not even as good,
by comparison, as most otber WOTkmen, and
few of the workmen sprain their backs, on Sat-
urdays, carrying home tbelr envelopes.
On tbe other band the French theatrical em-
ploye Is about as different from tbe Amerteaa
brand as one can well Imagine. In the States,
as a rule, they are about as fine a bunch of fel-
lows as ever set a scene or tamed eo a light.
Now and then you run across one irf wAom tUa
can nqt be said, bat I'm talking generalities.
And the crowd over here is dilferent. Strikes,
Just as curtains are going np, are as fteqncat
as fleas on a dog's tall. Here's an instance,
and I won't begin to say who was wnms t»
start with. I'll leave it to yon who was on tke .
bum side of the palings afterwards.
Mme. Bejane bad some trouble among ber
day macblnlats. I don't know enough about
the two sides to say who was right and wbo
was not. But the actress-manager decided to
let them go. Just as tbe cnrtaln was shout to
go up on M'Amour, the leader of the night mn-
cblnlsts asked the artist If she meant what
she said. Sbe said she did. "Well, we qolt,"
lie said, and turned and walked off. Mme. Be-
Jan started forward a few minutes later to
explain to tbe audience the delay, and Jnrt
as she stepped from beneath tbe heavy sheet-
steel flte-cnrtain. It fell with a mighty crash.
A secuid sooner. Mme. Bejane would have been
instantly killed. It Is said the machinists
"sabotted" the cnrtaln (a striker's expression
describing the wllfnl act of putting out of
commission or destroying machinery, etc)
The trouble bas been adjusted, and M'Amow
is holding on.
GEORGE AU.
The success ot the present bill at the FoHcs
Bergere Is our old friend, George All, the "dog
man." For twenty minutes bis sketch Is sufll-
clently funny to keep the audience screaming.
I say twenty minutes. Better make It twenty-
two mlantes. for altbongh All Is on bnt twenty
minutes, folks laugh a good two minutes after
he's gone. Humpty-Dnmpty assists. Otero is
still a big drawing card at this same, tbeatre.
THE AUTHORS' SOCIETT.
The French Society of Dramatic Authors is
an organisation I have been wishing to talk
abont to The Billboard readers for some time.
This Is my best chance, before the msh of half
a dozen new productions a week llUa op the
space at my disposal.
Some weeks ago I described the workings ot
tbe mnsie writers and publishers* association.
The Authors* Society, which I have often spell-
en of in these eolmnns.. Is fashioned much after
the same pattern. Every theatre In Paris — save
one— belongs to the society, much as tbe mu-
sic pnbllsber belongs to the music composers*
organization. Theatre managers MUST .be-
long to tbe Authors* Society, else they win be
as shy of plays as heaven is of bondboldefs.
That Is. they must be affiliated with the Soci-
ety.
Every author worthy of note vrrlting plays
in France Is a member of the association, nd
to many of them It is a ble-tslng. The author
doesn't have to worry at all about his money
after bis play Is accepted by a manager. Bte
society collects ttae money for tabn. All be bas
to do Is to call at the society and get bts
coin. This la ten per cent, of the theatre'g
gross receipts as a minlmnra. the psyment be-
ing stipulated by the Society.
If you ever went Into a French theatre yoo
S1W three men. like Supreme Court Judges, sit-
ting back of a sort of desk. Too buy your
ticket at the regnlatloB place, similar to Amer-
ican box-offices. Next yon present vonrself "an
controle.** "An Coofrole" Is another name for
the Judges. One of tbe "controle." or Judges,
Is the theatre's representative, another Is the
government's employe, and tbe third Is the
man who watches proceedings on behalf of tbe
Authors' Society. These two men are as sure
to be f onnd sitting with tbe theatre's man as
Is the manager of a road company to be present
at the coimting op vritb ttae treasurer of tbe
road-town playbonse.
Ton see there is no slip shod guess work
here. It*s strictly business from start to fin-
ish.; The Society tstes upon itself sll litiga-
tion arising from nnnald dues coming to one
of Its members, and In every way looVj out for
his Interests. On the other hand. It I? very
exacting, and authors beloncinp to it most toe
the chalk mark of Its ni'es and regulations.
One of these rules is that no member shall
deal directly with the theatres In the matter
of payments, nor shall he offer for sale a play
to a theatre not on the list as having signed
an agreement with the Societv. No matter
how much a theatre sbonld offer for a play.
If the theatre is an "outlaw." the author bas
no right to accept. Acceptance means Imme^
diate expulsion from the Society, and Inas-
much as every tbeatie which amounts to a

HERE AND THERE IN AMUSEMENTS
HEND ERSO N, KY.
Tbe Park tr&eatre. the one big playboaBe
here, was built some six or seven years ago,
at a cost of about twentr-nlne tbousand dol'
lara by the 3, E. English Theatre Company- and
since that time bas changed bands foor times,
the last time being bought by Adiey, Bnrcb &
Weill, of Owensboro, Ky. The house hasn't
had a fair chance np to this time, being handl-
. capped In several ways. Now. however, the
present owners are booking the. flrst'^lass plays
'and are going to give us sometblng for the
season of 3S10-19U. Ifr. J. D:. Kilgme, the
resident manager, knows Us bnslness and Is go-
ing to please the people. He also manages the
People's Theatre, motion picture and vaudeville,
and as evidence of liow mnch the people appre-
ciate something good and clear. It Is nothing
mmsnal to be unable to get a seat In the thea-
tre.
The other motion picture and vaudeville
houses here are owned and managed by Mr.
Hays, of the Nickelodeon and Mr. J. H. Watson,
of the Majestic. These houses notwithstanding
tbe fact tbat tbey are aUy managed and at-
tended, consolidated last week and will now be
ran as one honse. - '
The Skating Rink <vened October 20, under the
management of Mose Johnson. At present It
looks as If he will have a successful season.
On October 15, the second race meet and fair
closed a fine day meet, which was very success-
ful In every way, having an attendance of more
than ten thonsand people on derby day.
Business in all amnsement lines should Im-
prove as the Government will bnild a dam with-
in sight of the city, at a cost of three mlUloa
dollara. AH employes will have to be enter-
- talned while world^E here.

TUb season at the Grand ISieatre promises
to excel all others from a standpoint of at-
tendance and quality of attractio'ns. The Grand

rical business, success is assured.

ELGIN, ILL.
The Graad Theatre' Beautiful Is the most ap-
propriate name that could be selected for the
remodeled Elgin Opera Honse. Preparations
tending toward a beautiful playhouse have been
going on ail snmmer. The Improvements have
been on a lavish scale, and the result Is one of
the prettiest theatres Imaginable. A mosaic
tile sidewalk and floor has l>een laid beginning
at the. curb In front and extending through the
lon^ corridor to the tbeatie doors proper. Every
exposed surface from the front of the bouse to
the rear Is tastily decorated and adorned with
pretty hangings. The opening; October 10.
was a decided compliment to the new lessees,
Messrs. Tbielen and Frickett. Two perform-
ances was announced for T;15. and as early
as 6 o'clock bnndreds had congregated eager
to be identified with tbe first-nighters at the
opening of the new honse. By special Invlta-
tlon the city officials were present.
Matinees will be {-iven daily on dates road

of the Grand, the Star Vandeville Theatre, un-
der- the same management, has. been 'dosed for

□ANBURY, CONN.
Danbury's annual antnmnal festival, the Dan-
bury Fair, has closed. This Is the forty-second
"annual fair and cattle show of tbe Danbnry Ag-
rlcnltnral Society. This year's admission record
was 70,000, which "breaks all prevlons records.
The Danbnry Fair continues to bold Its repu-
tation for attractiveness and 'support wltb any
of the fairs of New England, and draws patron-
age from a radins of sixty miles. This Is due
to tbe live management of the enterprise. New
and novel attractions are always In order, and
the comfort and entertainment of every one Is
carefully attended to.
Danbnry has an opera honse and two moving
picture houses.
The Taylor Opera House Is under the manage-
ment of Mr. P. F. Martin. Tbe theatre has
been recently renovated and improved. The
stage bas a capacity to accommodate the largest
companies on the road.
Last year we had in JDanbnry five houses de-
voted to moving pictures. The number bas
been reduced to only two, and these are crowded
at nearly every performance.

Theatrical Trail Blazer Writes of Personal Experiences Encountered
on the Road, of the People He Meets and of
Conditions as He Finds Them
By TOM NORTH.
Oklahoma will be well represented before tbe
footlights when Miss Jane Haskell, tbe young-
est daughter of this state's governor, coab-
pletes her studies at a private school in Cin-
cinnati, and enters upon ber stage career. Miss
Haskell left Oklahoma City for Cludnnatl
some weeka - ago, announcing to her friends
that - fche wodd soon go- on the stage, having
selected that profssslon simply becsuse of her
love for It.
Miss Haskell Is seventeen years old. charm-
ing and vivacious. Her beauty Is of the de-
cided bloiide type. She knows, bow to dress
in style. Her friends say she has dramatic
talent in abundance, and they i^redlct for ber a
successful future.
It Is understood among Miss Haskell's friends
that the appearance, in Oklahoma during last
winter of her cousin, a Miss Haskell, of To-
ledo, 0.. with Tbe Girl Question Company,
had much to do with deciding her to take up
dramatic work. When The Olrl Question was
In Guthrie, the niece of Gov. Haskell was play-
ing one of the star roles, and after the per-
formance at tbe Brooks Theatre. She wsa given
a banquet and reception by friends of the
governor's family.
The .Haskells lived in apartments at tbe Ho-
tel Boyal, and many of tbe theatrical compa-
nies that made Guthrie during those three
years stopped also at the Royal, R. M. Brooks,
the manager, owning both the hotel and the
opera house. Miss Jane Haskell saw much,
therefore, of theatrical life, and as the opera
bouse adjoins the hotel, she could easily wit
ness all tbe performances. It was during these
days that she determined to become a star. ,
Governor and Mrs. Haskell have six children,
the youngest of three daughters being Miss
Jane, and their yoongest son, Joe. He is per-
haps less than two years the Junior of Miss
Jane, yet last season saw a vast portion of
tbe United States under the chaperonage of
CoL Zach T. filler, tbe mainspring of the
101 Ranch Wild West Show. The Governor's
son made a request to Join the show when It
opened last spring in this city, and was per-
mitted to do so. as the Miller Brothers were
well known to tbe Governor.
The Wild West aggregation traveled through
the East and North during the summer of 1900,
snd Joe Haskell remained with the Miners dur-
ing the greater part of the season, being con-
nected with the business end of the show. Dur-
ing bis son's connection with the Millers, the
Governor appointed George 'Miller, a member of
his personal mlutary staff, with the rank of
colonel, a position he still occupies.

An Interesting Letter Concerning Show Folks— Notes from the 101
Ranch — ^La Mont in Winter Quarters
HERE AND THERE.
By emr ■weabick.
KnoxrUIe, Tenn., Oct. 13. — The Appalachian
Exposition closed Its gates at midnight Oct.
32. and was acknowledged by all to be a snc-
Cess. The Board of Directors aim to bold this
exposition for thirty days each year for the
next five consecntiTe years. Friday, October
7, ez-Prealdent Booserelt was the guest of
himor and besides maklnir two speeches, be toolc
time to witness one complete pierformanee of
Col. Zack Unlball's Wild West Show, the fea-
ture amnseineDt attraction, of tlie exposition.
Oecopyliig a siieelal box erected for bis benefit
be was a "de-llgbted" spectator of the daring
feats of horsemanship and western sports, as
the cowboys, Indians and cowgirls vied with
each other for the snpremacy.
Tom Mix, chief of the cowlwys, leaves to-
morrow for Oklahoma to secure some bncldng
horses, long-homed Texas steers and another
detachment of cowboys and cowgirls to take to
Dixieland Parle, JackaoBTllle, Fla., wtilcfa has
been leased for the winter by the Sellg Poly-
scope Company to make several Western moving
plctnres. Mix left the Sellg people on a two
months* Taeatloii tbe 15tb of Angnst, and spent
tbe time as arena director for Col. Molball's
WUd West
Johnny J. Jones spent a pleasant day with
the show talking over olden times with Mr.
Mix who is an old friend of boyhood days. Mr.
Jones has now an eleven-car show that is con-
ceded to be one of tbe cleanest oatfits of its
kind ever pnt on the road. The show Is booked
all winter and wHl no donbt cootlnue to In-
crease &Ir. Jones* bank account as In the past.
Sammy Garrett has developed into a Srst-dass
bucking horse rider.
The Eingling Bros.' Shows arrived In Knoi-
Tllle late, bnt nevertheless had the complete
parade on tbe main streets by 12:30, and gave
tbe afternoon show on time with capacity busi-
ness. Tbe show stock and eqalpment certainly
looks line considering that the end of the sea-
son is BO near at hand.
Saw John Agee; he looks line and has en-
tirely recovered from bis Injury of his arm re-
cently.
The Big Otto Show leaves for Jacksonville,
Fla., Sunday. Mazzeppa and Good Night hor-
ses are going Xo Dallas, Texas, State Fair, and
will no doubt make big money there. Doc
Campbell the little fellow with the big noise
Who was the opener of side show at tbe ball
at KnoxvUle. baa left to visit ills wife pre-
vious to taking oat bis own show through the
balls this winter.
Becelved word from Uiller of the 101 Ranch
Show saying the sbow Is doing good, and it
tbey do not make another cent from now un-
til the closing of the season, they must feel
satisfied with their season's baslness.
101 RANCH NOTES.
Mrs. George W. Miller, mother of the Miller
firoB., is spending the week with the show, and
wbfle she Is tS5 years of age, la not yet to the
BlteBtane that forbids ber enjoying each and
ereiy perf omance and an occasional ride tn
tbe parade.
Cbas. RIgby. boss hostler. left the show at
Bpringlldd, UL. and Us place has been filled
W Uncle **BIIIle- Fanlk. late of the Soong
Bnffalo Sbow, wlilch closed October 3. Uncle
BtUte is an old hand, having served several
years with the Forenaugh Show.
Tezana and Reynolds Izave recently Joined tbe
sbow, and are doing their shooting act In the
toncert.
' 'Dan Dlx and Bill Caress are making good with
their Tutie stunts with the show. By the way.
Dan and Bill. Chester Byers. Hank Darnell and
Iiula Parr, have booked for a big vaudeville act,
nnder the direction of BUly Burke, of New
York, and will open on the big time Imme-
diately after the 101 closes.
Homer Wilson and several of his cowboys
Tislted the show at St; Joseph. Mo. Tbey have
been playing fair dates In Nebraska.. They
disposed of some good buckers and show aticrs
to the 101. and took home some of tbe stock
on hand labored In shipping, back to the Ranch.
- The new car load of bnckers and steers J<i!«t
received from the Rant^h are making good, uud
furnish some good timber for tbe puaiaars to
wor^ cn.
The report that the 101 Wild West Show
would tour S^uth America Is false, and Is here-
with contradicted. The report is current, how-
ever, around the cook tent and chain wagon
that the sliow will iro abroad at the close of
next year's season.
The new auto has been the cause of a spirited
contest between J. C. Miller and Geo. Arlington
as to which Is the best driver. Odds are now in
favor of Mr. Arlington, as he has knocked do^vn
tliree women and Mr. Miller only has two
chalked upon his score board.
Mrs. George Arlington left this week for
New York, where she will get the new home
recently purcbasfd. ready lor the return of ihe
family at the close of the season.
Mrs. Jane Woodend, wife of the New York
millionaire, was on the show all last week, and
made a lilt with her new outfit. She took part
In all the performances, and thnrnnghly enjoys
the ' snort. She spends ber summers at tiie
Banfh
A. M. Wosser, of Glrard, a friend of the
oatfit. Is on for awhile, and Is trving to make
blmself nsefol.
. .Up to the present time, the business of the
Show is tlie largest in Its lilstory.
Everybody has been remarking about that
■addle of Joe Miller's. Well. Ic Is a pippin,
and Is greatly admired. Without donbt it is
the finest creatftm In saddledom that ever graced
tne back of horse. In the saddle's makeup
there are 263 diamonds, sapphires and rubles.
Tbe gold and silver trimmings were furnished
by George F, Jordon, wholesaler of New York,
manufacturing Jeweler and diamond dealer, while
the saudle work, and a work of art. was done
by the Wyeth Saddlery Co.. of St. Joseph, Mo.
The name plate, steer, head ornaments and
all metal trimmings are of gold and silver, set
with diamonds and rubles. The saddle cost
over $5,000.00, and was first used by Mr. Miller
at the Minnesota State Fair, when it was the
predomination feature. At St. Joseph, during
the live stock show. It was the feature attrac-
tion, especially among th'o thousands of stock
men. The saddle is In keeDlne with Mr.
Miller's entire ontfit, horse, bridle and breast-
plate.
The show is tnrnlng sonth towards balmy
Florida, and everyone is happy, a happiness that
has to a great extent been responsible for the
Show's phenomenal success.
Miller Bros, recently presented to the Smith-
sonian Institute, a fine specimen of the now
almost exunct long horn steer, as the institute
desires to preserve a perfect type of the once
plentiful long horn. The steer will be mounted
and used In a scene in the museum under the
caption of "Tne Passing of the West." The
101 -Ranch will also give a typical western
horse to the Institute completly outfitted.
Later the new saddle, now beine ridden by
J. C. Miller, will be substituted for tile one
to be presented at this time. While In Wash-
ington, a cast was made of Mr. J. C. Miller's
face, and he will be shown astride the horse in
the act of roplnsr tne steer. The steer delivered
to the Institute was one selected by two experts
from the museum, xvho came to .Hagerstown,
Md., to make the choice while the show was
tbere.

Observations of the Stroller
Nat Haines, the comedian, vouches for the following: Els Jones, of
Jackson. Ohio, opened a. 'vaudeville and picture house in that city. XiOla Lee
Earl Company opened the house, and was booked as a box office attraction.
Els told his friends that he had a box
office attraction for his opener, and
it was a hum-dlnger. On the opening
night, Bis let down the curtain, and
told liOla Earl Company to get busy
and make up. He asked them if they
would be sure to be' ready when he
called for them. Upon being assured
that they would be ready. Els pro-
ceeded with his first picture. After
the picture had been run. Els" hustled
back on the stage to see if the com-
pany was ready for business. Finding them ready, he said, "follow me," and
started toward the front part of the house. One of the female members of
the company who was rather, thinly dad, wanted to know whither he was
leading. "To the box office, of course," says Els, "you were sent here as a
box office attraction. I don't know what you can do in that box office, but
by gosh you got to All your contract." It is needless to say that an explana-
tion was forthcoming, which was satisfactory. If an act Is sent to Els now,
billed as a box office attraction, he smiles as It recalls his first experience In
the Show business.
In the little town of Gainesboro, Ohio, the leading undertaker runs the
theatre. The show shop and the undertaking establishment are in adjoining
buildings. Performers are compelled to make up In the basement. On one ^ „^„o, „„i ta«
occasion, while the performers were I no information concerning her. So If you

Cincinnati, O. :
Gentlemen — I am tr,vlng to locate Mae Mont-
gomery, an American actress, who was playing
last July at Sydney, Australia, and I believe
left there to go to Manila, and then to India.
iMIss Montgomery Is playing vaudeville with
Mr. Castleman. I have been looking in Bill-
board every week in foreign news, but can gel
busily engaged in getting their war
paint on, an employee of the under-
taker rushed in and ordered the actors
to get their duds together and get out
of the way as quickly as possible. The
astonished performers wanted to know
if the house was on fire. "No, you
dern fools." says the employer, "old
Bill Jones got run over by a train,
and we got to bring him in here to get
him ready for burial." "Why are you
bringing the body in here?" Interrogated the comedian. "Why, my God,
man, don't you know, this Is the morgue?" said the excited helper. It Is
needless to say that further auestionlns was unnecessary.
A professional friend of the Stroller has sent a theatrical bulletin, in the
shape of a small pamphlet, he picked up while playing in the city where
this illustrious opera house is located. We won't mention the name of the
town, but it is somewhere In Kansas. The contents of the circular follow:
■Open all the year round, day or night, except Sundays, on a per cent
basis, for anything and everything, from a picture show to ring tailed circus,
Public and private dancing, wrestling matches, skating in season, public
meetings, caucuses, suppers. '

W. R. Arnold, Nashville, correspondent for The Billboard claims to have
witnessed the incident of which this spasm is an account.
"It was at the Tennessee State Fair," says Arnold, "and having acquired
an appetite for a dry Martini, I strol-
led to the bar. and ordered. While
I was standing there, philosophizing
upon the remarkable epicurian talents
of the man who Invented the drink I
was enjoying, a country lass, ap-
proached, accompanied by her bash-
ful swain. 'Hiram,' she sweetly cooed,
'buy me one of them soft drinks with
a cherry in it' Hiram's knowledge
of drinks ended with beer and sarsa-
^ parllla, but he remembered having at
one time heard a man call for a 'Cherry Flip,' at a hotel.
"How was he to know that it was not a 'Cherry Flip?' So bolstering up
courage, he said to the barkeeper, 'give us two cherry .flips.' The man with a
white apron smiled and answered that he "didn't believe he wanted a. Cherry
Flip, but a Manhattan. 'Yes,' said Hiram, 'that's what we want.'
"The drinks served, the young lady raised her glass to drink, and after
spluttering and coughing for a minute (she grulped ■ rather than sipped), said
to her escort: "Hiram, I don't believe this Is a soft drink stand..' Hiram, with
a down cast look, acquiesced."

There were el^ht atartera ia tbe race which

proved to be Barry Bnrke. the Bridgeport skater
wbo was allowed a liberal bandlcap of forty

the first to be opened In this city and it has
been very popular for tbe past five seasons.
The management has always maintained a very

are: Newsboys' Carnival and Masquerade, Oct.

SKATING IN HAMILTON.

bas been opened for the winter .season under
tbe management of Wm. H. Beemer. : Skating

the
KEOK UK, IOWA.
The local theatrical conditions, this season,
seem to be the most promising of any past year.
Already the Grand Opera House. manaKed by L.
C. Worley, has bad five complete sell-outs on
bish-class shows, while the medium-priced at-
tractions and stock companlea have done excel-
lent business. -
Keokuk has long been known as a poor ibow
town from the managers' standpoint. Tbe rea-
son for this was, no doubt, doe to poor man-
agement in tbe past. Last year, under the man-
agement of Mr. D. U Hughes, conditions were
seen to be gradually Improving. The present
manager, following closely tbe methotls of bis
predecessor. In booking only shows with merit,
stands in line to reap the benefits to be di--
rlved from a judicious management. He has
tbe confidence of his patrons, which la half the
battle. He Is winning the confidence and re-
spect of the booking agents and owners, which
when really and truly accomplished, is the
other half. Hlgb-elass ataows mnst be booked in
order to get resnlts ^ and hlgb-cIass shows are
not being booked In poor show towns. Manager
Worley's slogan Is "The Beat There is for Keo-
kuk."
The moving picture shows continue to get the
business. A united effort on the part of Man-
agera Aliell and Sansone of the Dodges anil
Colonial Theatres, respectively, to break the
Sunday Closing Law. bids fair to be.soecessfnl.

NEW JERSEY GOSSIP.
Geo. Drury Hart Recovers From a
Siege of Bronchitis.
At last New Jerseyites have the pleasure of
witnessing high-class vandevUIe acts at the
Hndson Theatre. TTnlon Hill, N. J., "Keith &
Proctor House." For the past five weeks the
bills were not np to th> standard, but at last
Manager John Peebles has captured several
live nnmbers. Continuing with this style of
bill. Manager Peebles will make lilmself popu-
lar as well as the house. The writer feels
Instilled by saying that the bill for week of
October 10 was the finest ever ezliiblted at any
K. & P. House.
There is probably no other state In the Union
receiving more try-outs than that of New Jer-
sey. This is due to the honest criticism of the
New Jerseyites. After the first try-out New
Jersey theatregoers will convince the manager
if his show is worthy of a big city production,
which in all probability they depend npon.
George Drory Hart, leading man of Corse
Peyton's Stock Co. at the Gayety Tlieatre,
Hoboken, is convalescent after a few days
heavy dose of bronchitis. George will leave this
week' to open at the Columbus Theatre, Wasb-
in^on, D. C.
It Is probable that within a Sh«t time, Joe
Woods, the popular New Tork TanderlUe agent,
will secure several New Jersey houses for tbe
excellent line of acts ho has been sending to
the "Critic State."
At last New Jerseyites have been granted the
pleasure of seeing high-class vaudeville twice
daily at the Hndson Theatre, Union HHI, N.
J. Manager John Peebles has captured some of
the finest vaudeville acts, and Is going to give
tbe constant theatregoers an opportunity to wit-
ness several new sketches before they are pre-
sented in the big city.
On Monday. October IT. Mr. Willard J. Bo-
bards, formerly of the Hndson Stock Co., at the
Hudson Theatre, Union Hill, N. J., returned
with a brand-new dramatic episode. The De-
faulter, from the pen of Dndley Clements,
treasurer of the Colonial Theatre, New York.
The story Is of frenzied finance, with a cast
of two, both being played by Mr. Bobards. Tbe
change made a decided liit with the entire aud-
ience, and responded to several curtain calls.
THE CAST.
Edward Harvey, cashier .. Willis J. Bobards
Joe Newton, bank bnrglar .. Willis J. Robards
SCENE. — Cashier's office of the Fidelity Trust
and Savings Bank of New York Clbr.
TIME.— Midnight.
Mike Simon and Ren Shields have completed
arrangements to bring their latest act. Cafe
del Bowery, to New York. The sketch made
a decided hit at the Hndson Theatre, Union
Hill. N. J., and tbe representatives of the
United Booking Office who witnessed the offer-
ing, pronounced it the best that this enterpris-
ing vandevUIe firm has ever offered. John Mc-
Vey has the stellar comedy part.

POWERS DENIES RUMOR.
Chicago. HI., Oct. 24 (Special to Tba Bill-
board).— -Some time ago the report that Powers'
Theatre was for sale gained credence In the
theatrical circles of Chicago, and found Its
way Into several of Chicago's dallies. Some
journals went so far as to say that -bids already
had been placed on tbls house, and that bur-
lesque might In tbe near future be seen there.
Evidently these statements were printed on
mere rumor, for when asked about this, Mr.
Powera emphatically denied tbat faia theatre was
for sale.
"It is simply absnrd," said Mr. Powers. "How
ever these reports get circulated, I do not
know. They must emanate from a source that
base their statements on mere conjecture. As
long as I live. Powers" Theatre will not change
hands or policy, and at the present time I have
not the aUgbtest-Idea of selilng. Tbe only per-
sons that -have enough' money to buy it ate
now interested in the . theatre, vrtth' me."

CLOSED.
Albany, N. Y., Oct. 20 (Special). — The his-
toric old Gaiety Theatre, here, which was once
a chnrcb, then a home of theatrical classics
with Booth and Barrett, arid for the last decade
a prosperous btirlesqne bouses bas closed Its
doors as a theatre. This fall Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Nichols, tbe managers and proprietors,
found their theatre removed from the Western
Wheel. Nothing dsnnted, the.v organired the
Gaiety Stock Burlesque Company and endeavored
to go it alone. A few weeks of poor patronage,
during which $5,000 was sunk, led them to the
conclusion that the flght was against them. The
last performance was given October 15. and tbe
house leased to the Knickerbocker Athletic Club
for boxing bouts.
Mr. and Mrs. Nichols have many friends -and
the offer of a 1)eneflt was made but they vetoed
It. After a few weeks' rest they may try a
new branch of the amusement- busiiiess. Mrs.
Nichols Is better known as Mrs. Agnes Barry-
and for years she managed tbe Gaiety alone. '

"beyond poaslbUlty" aUge. A few years ago,
Sileaanra aeekera were content with the wltnesa-
ug of a Btm or two for a nickel, ;iat comp>tlt':',n
auon multiplied the number exhibited la the

Then . some Ingenious mind essayed the combi-

struggle for bread and butter continually waxing
more and more bitter. Minds have been laboring
and conjuring up aome new aJIml attmcttos
that would deflect tbe nickels and dimes from

Us a repatatloD as as aVIatOE as OB tbe state,
Hat aByfaov tbe rDSb to see I<ocke's Xhe Man
from tne Sea lias been sometblis eztraordlnaiT.
Tbe play certalnlr Is Dtst rate, at all events,
me man Irom the sea, .Jan Bedlander, is a
•ihoeoash-zolne anmbns. - In fact; one feels doabt-
fol wbetlwr ne bad ever been near tbe sea at
til. H» talks aboat his wandecins and hardships
JL the most beantUoUj' poetic lasgnage that one
:an ever- imagine, and drives one finally , to the
»ncIns(on that all these lelsore moments of his
3avel8 most liave been spent in the penisnal of
Ae most lurid type of penny novelette. All
:he same, he is most interestinfr. And he
Degins to be more so when, with all bis assomp-
:ion of the binff J<auty of the sailor and his
vaim hearted frlemlsblns for women, he silences
1 Tonne antl(iaai7 f ontlfez Fye. when the latter,
ij eavesdionplns. discovers a secret reflecting
m a woman's nonor. Tills happens tiiroagh a
eimversatlon wiiicb - Bedland^ baa with ills old
Australian friend, Daphne Averil, in wUeh it
xassplres that she and her bnsband. Or. Averil,
•re not iesally married. Fontifex passes on the
oews which he had Heard to Ills friend Marion
Lee, a qoiet little widow, devoted to good
voras. whom, Bedlander, as a matter of tket,
bad come ' home to claim and marry. Uarion,
bearing the story, finds her conscience torn
between wbat she regards as her doty to society
md her love for her friend Osplme. Conscience
vlns, and Marion promptly maJces np tier mind
B> go and tell the Dean. And Bedlander, know-
ing how Uttle the Averila were to blame for
the slight irreinilarlty in their alfairs. Invents
onlte a diabolical scheme to prevent the effects
of Marlon's disdosares. He -calls on Marion to
say good-bye. And the leasia lie gives Is
utraordinaiy. "I have," he savs, "a wife
lITinE— 4nlte mad but still livinK. KnowInK
jonr views on snch sobjects, it Is of ' coarse
iselesB for me to ask yon to come and! share
ay coral Island with me nnmanled." And
nth luiB ootrageons lie, he so works on the
uiections and nasslons of tZie woman that in
3>e end she falls into Ida arms declaring her-
Mlf ready to follow bim all over the world.
And then she learns that she lias only lieen tile
nctim of a trick, bat for the moment,' she lias
Tot herself in exactly a similar posltiOD to that
>f Mrs. Averil. She realizes this, and Itaw ■»
Ksled on the matter forever.™^
It's a remarlMbly Clever piece of wotIe. Ix>-
lalne, faced wltlr an extraordinary part, and one
m tbe surface quite unreal, somehow manages
i» make it completely convinclnz. As Marlon,
;tbat great emotional actress, Nina Bonclcanlt —
;<een far too seldom these days in London— takes
the bouse by storm. Beryl Faber' is -Inst as
: .dever and polished as ever as Daphne, while
! vane Tempest did all tliat was possible With
: Jhe part of Pye. Altogether, toe play was, and
' is, a hnge snceess, and looks like having an
. aiormooa ran.
A' bitter little war. which may lead to far-
Kacblng coDseqaences, is jDst' now g(dnz'on
iietweea tiie managers of the provincial tlieaties
md the proin*Ietor8 of touring companies. - The
latter are now -tlireatenlnff to retaliate on the
nnmer for wbat tlwy allege to be nnteawoable
creatment.
The men wiio aecore a london snceess for
Soaring porposes and tbe actor managers who
"promote themselves la snccessfnl plays, liave
Men complaining for tbe last two years against
tbe methods of tbe ring of provincial managers,
which dictate the - terms npon -wiiich companies
shall tie accommodated in ute theatre* under
tlieir controL
Tile plaint of the •toarlng '' manager is, of
coarse, that he takes all tne nreilminarv - ex-
penses noon himself, carries praetieally ail tl»
tlsk and reBponsibliltv. and simply tias to ac-
cept wiiatever percentage terms the ring may
Aoose to dictate. It is- stated - that recently
me ring Intimated tliat tiiey woold not give
more- tlian fifty per cent of the .receipts to
touring companies, and tliat on Uiis account
many of the old established proprietors of toor-
tng cominnles have detramlned tn- retaliate by
playing their attractioos- in toe local music
Natarally there are many tonring managers
■whose attractions are so great that they can
'»mmand what terms they please, and tlie same
aay be said of some actor man "^ers, for they
ire features of the season wbich no provincial
manager, can afford to Ignore. Bat even the<<
latter have, in several ' instances, either 'Wlth-
4ra'wn -indefinitely from the provincial- touring
Khemes or have reduced their 'vialta to tbe
fiities to once a year-
The reply of the resident managers to the
protests that have been made against the terms
Aey are imposing is tbst rentv^ rates and taxes
Save - increased so greatly, and aB the inci-
lentals of the upkeep of a theatre have gone
3p so mnch that they have been compeBed t»
■-ower their terms in their own interests. They
<ay that it is not possible to pay tbe hlfrti per-
centage which the majority of llrst-dass man-
igers are in the habit of asking, and they see
so fnn in keeping theatres open simply for
:Iie benefit of tonring promoters.
Matters have now reaiHled the point where
the regular touring managers, having refused
tdmittance to certain towns, tlie local ling of
nanagers is promoting tonrs of ite own to iiU
die gaps.
Meantime, the public In the provinces is
■nffering for want of, good tiieamcal attrac
tlons, and there are more second rate com-^
panies on the road In first-class theatres than
■rer before. There is, snd lias been for some
dme. a dearth of real attractive plays In the
province, and many of the good pieces, with
Lcodooancceasi written 'largely upon tliem liave
lieen entirely ruined by bad acting. ^ This Is,
sccounted for by the fact tiiat when a touring
manager finds that he cannot Iwok at a higher
rate than fifty per cent, be immediately casts
his piece Just as cheaply as be possibly can.
The piece snirets, tlie pnbUe soBen, . and. If
he could only see It, the - icildeiit manager
suffers. '
As I liave pointed ont, some of the touring
managers liave taken* to obtaining an occasional
license and giving their- plsys in the local
music halls. But arrangements of this kind
at best can only be spasmodic, and tlie suc-
cess, if any, can onlybe- fOr the moment..
The probable consequence- of it: all will be
that touring companies In England wiU prob-
ably soon drift Into being a thing of the past.
It Is useless to expect a man to undertake an
tile onerous -risk of ^ long tonr for a mere fifty
per cent — and in some cases even thirty-five
per cent only is being offered. Tbe result of
tbis cutting process will be that it being
Impossible to go on tour and pay one's ww.
there vriB simply : lie a' drifting bsck ' to the
days of tlie old stock seasons. Admirable as
these were In their day, I think we have ad-
vanced somewhat licyond that stage. _^
But tbe worst feature of the whole business
is that unemployment is bound to become an
Increasingly serious problem. With touring
companies oat at the low percentage offered,
the bread is taken out of the months, of poor
actors and jictresses. And another effect -U
that tbe country Is being, starved.
At the moment quite half of the members
of the profession who used to spend their time
tonring tbe provinces, finding themselves out
of employment, have taken to the cluemato-
KraDb shows, and manage to earn n uymg
^Ikying up to the Smera." Ito these indeed
tlM! picture shows have proved a veritable
blessing. ; - ' ..'
PARIlB LETTER.
, (Cdbtinned from page IT.)
biU of ieam Is In the. Society, one can see
what s blow this would be snd that no aatbor
wonld willingly lay himself open to It.
This week, the one theatre in Paris not
signing with the Society announced a play, vrtth-
out giving the name of the .author. , Sevcial
newspapers annonnced themselves as believing
that such and such a playwright Oust giving
one Initial of bis name, lest they be mistaken
snd a libel salt result), and forthwith a well-
known author sent letters' to all the papers,
furiously and wildly denying that hO; bad, or
ever would have, anything to do wltb tbe the-
atre In question.
The working of the Society Iremlnds me more
of the Big I«agne baseball aBsodation than
any other American concern. But without tear
of contradiction there isn't a more powerful
nor a more eflScIent one that is this French
Authors' -'Society. Its agreements with the
theatre are in the form, of hard and fast con-
tracts, and it has a way of compelling every
man to stand by his. contract, wonderful ' to be-
hold.' The French don't fraternize well In big
bunches and gobs, and in most associations over
here — trades nnlons, etc. — ^there is a conglomer-
-atlon of . factions, each -working against the
others, perfectly amazing to see. But there's
no :frIctIon -with the Antbor*', Society. It is a
marvelonsly well-oiled machine. - - •-
JTTMS CIABBTIE.
- Win Jules Claretle. of tbe Comedle Fran-
caise,' quit- directing its - affairs? ' Bumor says
be wlU, and even goes so far as to name his
possible successor. . ,
On October 23 this capable little >.iiian wiU
have been general administrator, as he Is
called, of the Boose of KoUeie - lor twaity4lve
yesrs. It Is said that lie may band in his
resignation at that . time to become literary
and dramatic critic of Le Journal, one of the
leading Paris morning papers. Personally, I
am assured tliat this will not I>e, bat one can
never tell.
Jean Bicbepin, Adolpbe Brisson and M. Brieax
(an playwrights'! are ' mentioned by different
Iieopie as possibilities in the way of a successor
to Claretle. As t say, however, the latter has
not left the COmedle yet. I remember that when
Emmanuel .^rene died and left the post of dra-
matic criticism vacant on the Figaro, it was
said that Claretle wonld qnit the Comedle to
take that position. But, of course, he did not.
Still. I hardly think M. Claretle wUI remain
at the Comedle many years longer;, hs la gettliig
along In years.

DID SHAKESPEARE USE SCEN-
ERY?
(Continued from page 5.)
Of prior to his advent, be would think of tliem
and utilize them. My belief was strengthened
by tbe fact that he did make nse of some ac-
cessories, costumes, for instance, wigs, make-
up, traps and a trap-door. 1 felt sure that If
be took such Insnlte pains In the 'writing of his
pla.vs, he would surely take some little pains In
their production. I could not -Imagine the bal-
cony scene in Bomeo snd Juliet witbont scenery
and a practical balcony; nor the grave scene In
Hamlet without a trap and set grave stone, nor
the interlude In the same play witbont a mimic
stage. I was snre that the brain 'which was
capable of Inventing the situations 'would also
be capable of Inventing the very simple scenery
and accessories that went 'with It, but, na I
snid before, while I knew it I did not know
how I knew it. I only knew that my common
sense told me so. Nor did I know Greet. I
ilfd not know actors and managers In general.
Taken as a whole .1 knew them well — knew them
as a class, knew what manner of men tbey gen-
erally were. I knew that a great many nf them
were great readers, and tbnt a few of these
were students, and fewer still srhnlars. Snch
were my mental position and conclnRlnns before
I made any investigation upon tbe siibJi>ot. Per-
mit me now to call the reader's attention to
the following facts and findings:
Stevens sa.vs, "Ail tbst we know with sny
certainty of Shakespeare Is that he was born In
Stratford-npon-Aroo, married and bad diUdraB.
that be went tO '.CioBdoa,' where he appeared as
an actor, and wrote poems and plays; that hs
returned to Stratford, made bis 'will, died and
was burled." , =! . -i
Not much, but . enough . when rappIemeaM
with the following dates wblch are tabsoIatMj
bnthentle, vis: . _ ,
1st Baptized April 26, 1B64, .
2nd Married In 1582. ,
Srd l«tt Stratford for London in 1B8B or UBI.
aged 22. or 23 years.. .....
4th Died ■ suddenly on a visit to . BtntfOrfl.-
Aprli 23, 1610, aged S5 years.
Now, let us decide the very, important
tlon of what was "Shakespeare's day.". I
should say It was that period of bis life ^Ucb
might be called his .heyday— after be bad "Wpa
bis spurs, obtained recognition and proved a aoc-
After be reached London iw did not immediata-
ly become an actor. He hlmaelf said that for a
long time he was content to iioid tba bocsai
In front of tbe theatre.
Art is long— especially the art of tbe actor—
fjid he was satisfied to become a great .actor
before he atn-inpti^l playwrltlng. Very raw
men have written workSi tbst were truly grMt
before the sge of forty. At forty-two Bhaka-
speare became associated with Burbago as- me-
ager of a theatre. It Is fair to presume tbat be
achieved bis first success sborUy befota that
age — say forty-one.
: He was forty-one years of age Mn the year
1605. He died In 1616. Ergo, "Shakespeara'a
day." waa 1605-1616. Bnibsge'a Theatre, where
Shakespeare first worked as a supemnmeran'.
and afterwards as an actor, when be cam* ta
London, is thus described by John MaIone_la
tbe World's Best Literature, vol. xxil., rnfa
13182, vis: "Bnrhsge's house, a spaclona play-
ing boose, waa ballt of wood in ocUgonal form.
wRh a stage. There were two stories or gai- .
ierles that were roofed over. Tbe itaw waa also
partly Voofed to tbe boxes, or lord*' .™«?»'
which were next to the stage on either ••*••" .:
If Shakespeare wss 21 years old when be eoia-
menced acting, this would prove that Loodn .
boasted of s very fair sort of a .theatre aa.aary .
as 1688. A theatre that bad a stsge, a baicaoy.
a gallery and boxes.

Says HALLBERG
Gentlemen, that is a pretty strong werja.
Right now comes the time when strong words and virile deeds axe nec-
essary — man who don't make good on his promises is .
a liar— NOW — 3 years ago this month
I Promised the Moving Picture Industry IMany Tilings---^
I Promised tiiiat tlie Hallberg Economizer Would-—
1— Save 50% to 90% on your current. .
2. — It would remove the purple ghost.
3. — Render Impossible fuse blowing.
4. — Wonderfully improve your light.
&.— Thft^he Hallberii>wpuJdHas:^orever.
6.— (And the most Important promise) That
I was so sure of the Hallberg— that I would
accept any current-saving.devlce thatyou. had
bought and with which you were dissatisfied
in part exchangefpr my Hallberg— the FIRST
and ON LYJAUTQIMATIC current-saver on
Ihemarket.
Gem Theatre.
BockT Ford, CoL, Aug. 4, 1908.
In regard to tlie Economizer, I will
wait this moBth and see bow a. cheaper -
cnxrent saver does which I hSTe on trial.

I am tired of S> good current saveni.
Ship me TOUTS by.lr^ht at -once. Noth-
ing In tbese cbeap ones. :
Xonrs trnlT', Col. J. A.. HcCnrry,
Owner Gem Theatre.
Bocky Ford. Col.. . Feb. 16, 1909.
The Hallhers Economizer la cnttlng
my juice bill over balf. I am Borry I
did not boy it when yon first offered it
to me. It woQld have paid for itself
many times over. It gives a better pic-
ture, no flickering and no' heat In the
'opermtlng room.
Tours truly. Col. I. A. McCnrry,
Owner C^em Theatre.
New Bochelle, N. T., Sept 17, 1010. '
The ThanliaDser Co. can't speak too
highly of the Hallberg Ecmomlzer. It
does all that Is claimed for it and does
It weU.
■Very truly yours,
Thanhonser Company,
.Ed ThanhoDser, Pres.
Archbald, Fa.. Oct. 21, 1909.
Begard the purchase of your Hallberg
Econmnlier as the very best investment
we luve aver made.

Xonr . Hallberg Economizer Is great. I
have bad It for six months.

B. W. Marks.
Montreal, Can., June 15, 1010.
X have been using your. Hallberg Econ-
omizer for the past two years and in my
estimation it la- the -only economizer on
the market to-day. .
Xoora sincerely,;
H. 'W. Conover,
Mgr. Keith's Nickel Theatre.
Sandusky, O., 'Dec. 1, 1000.
1 am getting the most beantifol light
with your Hallberg Economizer ever seen
on any curtain anywhere. My bills, are.
less than half than ' f rarmerly. . . :i .

I thought I bad a good light before
using the Halibers, but know, now 1 waa
mistaken.
■■■ Very .truly,
J. C. Doyle.. .
Again I-say the man who don't make good on his promises is a liarr— a business cheats and . ^swindlerv--^that
can't continue. - *
Some one aslded-me the other day IF I had made good on all my promises-^he wondered because he. saioz^.
that not all the' exchanges handled tiie "Hallberg." i ' . ' t
I'LL ANSWER ONE— AND PROVE THE OTHER—
,l--AbouC Exchanges— It is true, that ALL of the exchanges do NOT handle the "Hallberg"-^why?-rsev-
eral reasons. They make ia smaller profit on my device than the others— I believe in putting money into my
! current-saver — ^to benefit you— not to make big profits for the dealer — ^I don't get a big profit myself — ^I sell close
-^to ihemaTginiin.iorderto bring the price TO yijur reach — for your benefit. My device may cost a little more
' than otheis^T-^nd my way of doing business a fittle idifferent-^in^ o machine I sell^>paid for by
the man who gets it-^-I have no bad accounts — ^you don't have to help pay for the machine someone else gets
and don't pay for— ^I staiid behind the "Hallberg" with Bank references or a cash guarantee that il'your money
back if not satisfied"--and' this offer has STOOD 3 YEAUS WITHOUT b6ihg usedr-that'a why^EYERY
GOOD, itELIABLE, TRUSTWORTHY exchange that has the interests of its customers at heart cany the
*'HALLBERG"-:Ba1asfied to make SMALL profits and plenty of them. • . ,
NaW THE OTHER POINT MY FRIEND BRINGS UP-HAVE I MADE 6000 ON MY PROMISES?
Determine for yourself - these letters I have by the THOUSAND— ABSOLUTELY UNSOLICITED :
Brunswick, Ga., Jan. T, 1910.
I take pleasure in atating tbat. tba .
Ballbers Economizer Is more than . yoo
claim for It, and we are very pleased
with tliia investment.
- Xours truly.

' Xonr Economizer Is fine and does all
yon claim.

B. S. Clinton,
Mgr. Gem Theatre.
Denver, Colo., July 1, 1910.
Your Hallberg Economizer In twelve
' weeks has made a saving for me on- the
Juice bin of tl25.10. It has paid for
itself.'-'.
Xonr* truly.
■8. A. Fisher,
Mgr. Btar Theatre.
If a street car stops, you blame the motorman — :if there is a poor light on your screen, you blame the operator—
DON'T DO IT-^ve hun the proper things to work with— A HALLBERG ECONOMIZER will give him a
chance to show his skill — operators today are intelligent men-^they have a pride in getting the
best results for you — ^it's due them to reduce the discomforts of a hot, stuffy booth — a "Hall-
berg" does this — ^wipes out the purple ghost — gives you a dazzling, white light and saves the
current bill— The time to do it is NOW,
