STISE FOLK and Sometimes OTHEBS 



BY JOBBPHINB GBO. 



The Invariable reply was a negative, given 
In different degrees of Impatience. One 
answer, "What are you giving ua?" teeming 
Hie uncalled-for Impertinence, but before the 
manager could call the offender to account, 
the communication was abruptly severed. 
Failing to find the whereabouts of the dele- 
gation, he bethought himself of consulting 
his brother-in-law. 



"Billy." 

"Yes, what Is It, old man?" said that per- 
son. But without replying the manager con- 
tinued : 

"Harry." 

"Yes." 

"Jack." 

"Yes, what can I do for jou?" was Jack's 
answer, as Ave men wondering!? waited for 



long C. 0. D. telegram, and at the asms 
time getting a joke on his friend by signing 
his name to it. 

Accordingly the following wordy telegram 
waa wired the hotel proprietor, who was well 
known to be a very close man concerning 
money matters : 

"Dear Sir — I want yon to save me a small 
back room, without bath, on the top floor. 



Along the Blalto a story la being told on 
a manager of some prominence who, like all 
other In bla position, has his troubles with 
occasional failures of his productions. 

Though his star bad good backing and a 
fair play, the piece failed to draw, and, to 
secure a semblance of success, much "psper" 
waa Issued, and for a few nights the theatre 
was fairly filled. Bnt "paper," however en- 
thusiastic, does not settle the salary roll, and 
the manager, though keeping up a bold front 
towards the public, complained bitterly In the 
bosom of his family. 

His brother • In • law, 
who Is something of a 
wag, hearing him tell 
bis troubles, determined, 
by way of a Joke, to 
give him at least an 
boor or two of cessa- 
tion from worry. He 
should enjoy the hope 
of better business for a 
short time, even If at 
the end that hope 
should be dispelled by 
finding that a joke had 
been played upon him. 
Accordingly one morn- 
ing the facetious broth- 
er-in-law enlisted the 
coop* ration of a woman 
friend In calling the 
manager up on his 
office telephone in the 
bolldlng next to the 
theatre. The worried 
man bad Jnat arrived at 
the box office, and was 
feeling particularly blue 
aa he glanced up at the 
ticket rack, the spaces 
of which were only too 
well filled with unsold 
bits of cardboard. At 
the ring of the tele- 
phone he almost .fell 
over the treasurer's 
chair In his haste to 
resj*---the-T-re*e4Ter,- 
through which he was 
hoping to hear a call 
for seats. Nor wss he 
disappointed, for over 
the wire came a wo- 
manly votce, asking: 

"la the manager 
there I" 

"Yes," said he, "I'm 
the manager." 

"Well," said the un- 
seen applicant for seats, "will It be possible 
for you to save ma a hundred and twentj- 
flve seats for tonight? Our delegation, which 
has Its meeting In New York, have voted to 
see your production." 

Now, as the advance sale was only about 
thirty dollars, the manager's heart gave a 
leap of Joy at this prospective addition to 
the sale. Wishing, however, to give the lady 
the Impression that, aa business was so good, 
It would not be ah easy matter to arrange 
for so many at such short notice, be replied : 
"If you'll hold the wire for a moment I'll 
see what can be done." 

"Oh," said the voice, "If there's any doubt, 
don't bother about it — there are other the- 
atres In town where our party may be enter- 
tained," and a sound over the wire seemed 
to Indicate to the manager that the lady was 
in consultation with some one. 

Upon the anxious manager fell the cold 
fear that he was about to lose a good sale, 
and, in a voice made unnaturally buaky by 
his nervtouaaess, he hurriedly exclaimed : 

"Oh, — yes,— ah — I — I And I can give you, 
In the first rows, aa many seats as you may 
need." 

"Very well then; send them Immediately, 
with the bill, to our hotel— I am president 
of the Lady Bbrlners— whatever the amount 
may be. I will band to the messenger," and 
before the elated manager could ascertain 
the name of the hotel to which the tickets 
were to be sent, the click of the receiver at 
bis ear Indicated that the one at the other 
end of the wire had been hung up. 

Nonpalsed for a moment at the possible 
<oss of the sale, he Immediately aet about tele- 
Phoning to several of the prominent hotels, 
Pitting the question : 

"Is the delegation of Lady Bbrlncra stop- 
ping at your hoteir 




give rebates for two In a room," began the 
proprietor, whose torrent of Indignation was 
stopped by the astonished actor, who ex- 
claimed : 

"What's the matter with you? I want one 
of your beat rooms, and I want It quickly, 
too. If you haven't got one — good after* 
noon I" 

The mystified proprietor scented the fact 
that there waa some mistake, and reaching 
Into a desk for the telegram, handed It to 
the actor, who quickly saw that It waa the 
work of some practical Joker, 

"It's up to both of us," he said to the pro- 
prietor. "Let's go snd treat eacb other," and 
the two sauntered toward the stairway that 
led to regions below, where feminine guests 
are forbidden. 

» 
Three little girls were standing on the 
beach, nesr ths actors' colony at Bt. James, 
discussing tbe merits of their father's pro- 
fessions. 

"My father," aatd one 
of the youngsters, "be- 
longs to the cleverest 
profession of all— he's a 
newspaper editor." 

"Pooh I" said another, 
"my father's profession 
Is greater than that— 
he's a lawyer." 

"You needn't fee! so 
proud," spoke up one of 
the group, "my father 
Is on nctor — ho belongs 
to the theatrical profes- 
sion." 

"That's no profes- 
sion," retorted the law- 
yer's little girl, "my 
pnpa snys that's a dis- 
ease," 

QUHHIl JAPANBBU 

CUSTOMS. 



Hastening next door to the office of that 
Jolly relative, he found him laughing with 
several mutual friends. As tbe manager 
rushed In and was about to put the ques- 
tion, he waa anticipated by bla relative, who, 
with a twinkle In bla eye, asked : 

"Do you know where the Lady Bhriners 
are stopping T" 

In an Instant, aa hearty laughter from sev- 
eral throats filled the office, tbe manager 
realised that he had been tbe victim of an- 
other of bis brother-in-law's practical Jokes. 
Turning upon them with a stern face, be 
called each separately by name, as If about 
to deliver sn Impressive bit of Information, 
and wished to have the undivided atten- 
tion of them all. 

"Tom," said he to one of them, who re- 
plied: 

"Yes." 



the Information that seemed to interminably 
slow In coming. 

"Dick," continued the manager, speaking 
the name of the last. 

"Yea " 

"You can all go to blazes!" exclaimed the 
manager, as be slammed the office door. 

Another practical Joke la told of a well 
known actor, whose salary permits of taking 
the best rooms at the best hotels. The Joke, 
In fact, made a double "hit," for It struck In 
two directions— in that of tbe actor and also 
of the manager of the seaside hotel where 
the actor Intended to stay. 

A friend, hearing of the Intended destina- 
tion of the actor, and remembering that the 
previous season be bad bad some serious un- 
pleasantness with that personage, conceived 
the Idea of causing him tbe expense of a 



Can I get a rebate if I bring a friend with 
me? Does the water there agree with you? 
If so, I will come. Wire answer." 

Needless to say tho wrathy proprietor, to 
whose account the telegram was cbsrged, 
sent no reply to the name and address 
signed. That afternoon tbe actor arrived 
with a trunk full of handsome seaside cloth- 
ing, snd signed bis name upon the register. 
He was about to ask for tbe best room In tbe 
house when the proprietor, who stood at thd 
clerk's elbow, saw that the new guest's name 
was that which had appeared on the many 
worded telegram. Forgetting to assume bis 
usual suave manner In which bs usually 
greeted guests, he, to use tbe actor's words, 
"lit Into" him In a most unaccountable way. 

"I haven't any little top floor back room, 
and the water here won't agree with you, 
and I don't need your money, neither do I 



An amusing address 
waa given In London re- 
cently, at the meeting 
of the Japan Boc'ely, 
by Baron Buyematau, 
on "Japanese Family 
Laws." It waa curious 
to hear bow nearly tbe 
laws of this newcomer 
Into civilisation re- 
sembled, before recent 
changes, the old Iioman 
laws of the samo order. 
Tbe father of tho 
family, both In old 
Home and recent Japan, 
had absolute power over 
all Its members. 

The practice of adop- 
tion Is another simi- 
larity. Adoption Is gen- 
erally employed when 
a wealthy Japanese 
family boa daughters 
on'y. In this casa tho 
chosen son-in-law la formally adopted by his 
father-in-law, takes his name and enters his 
household as a son, instead of tho daughter 
going, as In other rases, Into the family of 
her husband and coming under tho rule of a 
mother-in-law. 

floron Buyematsu suggested smilingly that 
If any English young man wishes to fight for 
Japan, ihe wsy to do It Is to go to that 
country and marry a Japanese lady who Is 
the representative of her family. By so 
doing ho will forthwith become a subject of 
tbe emperor. 

The wonderful rapidity with which Japan 
has taken bold of Western civilisation was 
ompbaslscd by. the abowlng of an arrow, 
auch aa would have been carried to battle 
by a noble warrior of Japan* as recently aa 
IbflS. Think of It— so recently as that, tbla 
nation that Is sweeping all before It In the 
field was still fighting with old fashioned 
bowa and arrows. 

The arrow head was shown by a new 
Instrument, called the "ICdlblotcopo," the pe- 
culiar power of which Is thst It throws on 
tbe screen an enlarged Imago of sn object 
Itself — not merely s reproduction of a pic- 
ture ; and the arrow head shown, which was 
very ornate and artistic, was what was 
known as "the Last Arrow," which was al- 
ways carried In the quiver, to be employed 
only In utter emergency, It Is thought that 
the Idea was to use It ss a final despairing 
appeal to the gods, and If no Improvement in 
the altuation Immediately followed Its use, 
the noble warrior who found himself con- 
quered, would forthwith commit suicide, 

The contrast between the Japan of today 
and the condition of tbe country a genera- 
tion or so ago was strongly emphasised a't 
the lecture, and there were many reminders 
of the distance that the great Eastern empire 
has advanced in a few brief years.— Com-

Forbes Robertson's season at the Duke of

his producing u new play during this pro- 
vincial tour, but nothing Is certain yet 
about if: 

As 1 announced some weeks ago, Messrs. 
Harrison & Maude are to occupy tbe New 
Thnntre during Charles Wyndbnia's absence 
tills Autumn in the United States, nnd while 
i ell a In more or less necessary alterations 
und decorations are being effected at the 
Itaviiiarkei. Mr. Maude's appearance at the 
New will lie in a new study of river side 
life, by W. W. Jacobs, wherein he will rep- 
resent, a bnrgc mosler, who is tbe central 
llgure of the characteristic comedy, which 
Bight be culled "Wnpplng Old Stairs." In 
this connection It Is very pleasaut to be 
able to note that Mrs. .Maude's recovery 
from her recent serious Illness goes on. 
steadily, and that nothing could be more 
encouraging than tbe reports of her health 
rrcelvenf from her seashore cottage, where 
she Is rapidly regaining strength and spirits. 
"Saturday to Moudoy" reached Its one 
hundredth nnd final performance on Friday. 
E. S. Wlllnrd will open the New Kings 
Theatre, Glusgow, Monday, Sept. 12. "The 
Cardinal'' will continue to form the main- 
stay of Mr. Wlllard's repertory durlug his 
Autumn tour, 



The. Harmony Four are, I hear, creating 
it furor at Mr. Ilni-rusford's Purls house, tlie 
Alnnmbra. They have my sincurest con- 
gratulattons. ■ , , 

Speaking of fours, I am reminded that the 
Manhattans are again In town. They were 
injiinctcd last week In Newcastle, where they 
wero billed to play for Mr. Barrasford, but 
an Mr. Moss has contracts with them aud 
apparently values their services, he moved 
the courts to restrain them from plavlng 
at any house but his own. They have bad 
a similar experience Ijo London tbla week 
They were to" nlajr the Middlesex, but Sir, 
Stoll compels them to retain their fresh' 
nets until they nre due to open at his new Co- 
losseum. This barring business Is getting 
lo he a serious matter to performers who 
desire to keep working fifty-two weeks a 
year. 1 wonder would It not be possible to 
avoid It by each net having at least two 
distinct routines of matter. 

Hume, Itoss and Lewis nre playing Die 
Empire, Shepherd's Hush, this week, Thev 
have a very amusing act, which Includes 
sum excellent eccentric dancing by one o( 
the team, and a trombone solo by n lady. 
The Kings are also on this bill and earn 
(rent applause for their fine singing. 

The Empire Palace, Blnulgham, Is tills 
week being visited by Howard nnd St. Clair, 
Pnnteer Brothers, Rachel Lowe, Lalla s.-|. 
hlnl, ahd Wilson HalletL 

Appearing nt the latest Stoll house, the 
Ardwlek Empire, Manchester, are: Donald- 
son Bros, and Ardoll, Seeley und West, Hart 
and Leu, and Belle Davis. Next Monday is 
the opening date, and the above may be re- 
lied upon to make the first week n big success. 

At Hackney Empire, next week, are : Kelly 
and Gillette, Conway and Lelnnd. Juno Sal- 
mo, May Henderson, Cliff Itylanu, the Her- 
ald Comedy Four, and Jlmson's Cirque, seven 
acts out of a total of ten. Later on we mm 
expect to llnd the bills consisting entirely of 
American artistes. 

W. C. Fields still continues his great suc- 
cess over the Moss tour, lie' Is top liner at. 
the Empire Palace, Leeds, next week. 

The Hooper.-, are making n big hit this 
week at Bradford Empire. Carl Hertz, the 
Jackson Family, and the American Comedy 
Four are also going splendidly here. 

Frank and Jen Latona Journey to Swansea 
next week, to fulfill an engagement at the 
Empire. 

Kelly and Ashhy are playing a successful 
provincial tour Just now. On Monday night 
they open nt the Alhamhra, Brighton, being 
billed in large type. 

Fioiiid and Ruge nre topping the bill at 
thn Tlvoll. Harrow-In •Fiirncss, where thev 
are a big attraction. 

Polk und Kolllns are adding to their repu- 
tation In Glasgow Ibis week, at. the Hippo- 
drome. Ednn Mastln Is on the same bill, and 
Is going very good. 

The Young American Quintette nre fea- 
tured at the Hippodrome, Norwich, and from 
ell accounts are making a big success there. 

At the Empire, Newcastle on Tync, the 
Kaufmans nre creating a seusatlou with 
their clever trick 'cycling act. Lee and 
Bentley ere also making a success at this 
house. 

Heba Kniifmnnii, of New Y'ork, novelty tne

Walter Snnford has arrived In Sydney to 
make Ihinl nrriiiigenienls for his AnstraUun 
campaign, which is announced to commence 
nt the Lyceum Theatre ou Saturday, July 
it. The actor-manager hns spent the last 
fifteen years In New York, where he hns 
lieeu closely Identified with the production 
of great Drury Lane dramas, besides having 
a large number of the American written 
works entrusted to his rare for presentation 
to the public. 

Tbe Beerbobin Tree Co, season has con- 
cluded In Sydney. Messrs. Mnyncll & Vnrnn 
have now taken over the romlilnntlon from 
Messrs. J. C. Williamson and Tree, and will 
open In Brisbane tonight (Juno 27). 

"The .Marriage of Kitty," after a five 
weeks' run nt tbe Criterion, has concluded. 
nnd on Hnlurday night Hubert II navies' 
new piny, "Cousin Kate," was produced. 

llalgli Jackson, a new baritone from tho 
Carl Koro Opera Co., will appear as Geoffrey 
Cballoner, In "A Country Girl." nt Her Ma- 
jesty's tonight, nud Maud Chetwynd will 
be seen as Mme. Sophie. 

"Cousin Kate" was preceded at the Crit- 
erion, oh. Saturday night, by "Madame But- 
terfly," In which Rose Musgrove appeared ns 
tbe Japanese heroine. 

Mr. Snnford's Initial production In Syd- 
ney will be "Tlie Power of Gold." 

"Mishaps of Mr. Dooiey," with Tom Nnwn 
na Timothy Dooiey, has caught on at the 
Palace. Tho piece is a screamingly funny 
three-art American comedy. 

George Stepheiisou's new musical comedy 
company continues to do excellent business 
nt the Lyceum, where "Tlie Rose of the 
Riviera" Is III the zculili of Its bloom. The 
new songs, especially "Egypt," have caught 
on Immensely. 

The American Travesty Co., brought out 
by Harry James, and comprising thirty-eight 
people, will open nt. the Palace In the mlddlo 
of next month. They will present the bur- 
lesque, "Fiddle-Dee-Dee." The cast will In- 
clude : Kolb and Dill, German comedians ; 
Pnrhev Bernard. Hebrew Impersonator: Win- 
Held lll.ike, comedian and baritone: Maud 
Amber, niexxo prima donna and comedienne : 
Lily Sutherland, souhrette and dancer; Ben 
Hassan, animal man and acrobat.. Richard 
(loodnll will he staqe manager. 
The second prodtictlon In Sydney of the 



Royal Comic Opera Co. will be the musical shortly 



reason to lie given nt the Adelphl, "The Earl 
and the Girl" going on to the Lyric. About 
the middle of September Is now said to be

Prayer of (he Sword." A due company of 
old Bensonlans will mippart Mr. Asche nnd 
his charming wife, Lily Brttyton. 

Herbert Campbell, the famous comedian, 
who Is lying seriously 111 at his home In 
North London, has hud a paralytic seizure. 

Nothing has yet been settled regarding the 
appointment of a manager for the Tlvoll. In 
the meantime Albert Gilmer is looking after 
Hint house nnd the Oxford. 

I am requested by the directors of the 
Palace Theatre (Limited) to contradict, on 
their behalf, the report which has, It seems, 
gained currency to Die effect Dint they have 
acquired a site In the Tottenham Court Road 
fur the purpose Of erecting n music hail. 

F. Hal ton McCnlinh hns left the London, 
Sboreiiiich, after a somewhat brief experi- 
ence as acting manager. " 
Henry Lea's act continues to lie tho big 
feature of the Tlvoll's programme. It has 
nude a big popular success, but more than 
• hat It has made what the French call a 
luivrn d'rHtrinr. The papers are enthusiastic 
IA nralie of Mr. Lee's dramatic power, as 
well as of the faithfulness of his Imitations. 
Vulazzl, a Juggler, with a good style and 
many novelties, Is still featured on the Tlvoll 
bill. 

Whistling Tom Browne and T. Nelson 
Downes stlil share between thera the choice 
time on the Empire hill.

the continent, opens on Monday, at the Em- 
pire. 

Jesse L. Lanky, mnunger of Herrmann, the 
Great, is In Loudon, nnd Is a constant caller 
nt the Bureau. He Is here partly on busi- 
ness and partly as a vacation trip. 

I have rarely known so few American nets 
to be in London as Is the case this week. 
In all hills, even Including the suburbs, there 
nre hardly a dozen American nets working 
the metropolis just now, nor is It that tbey 
are laying off. for very few familiar faces 
nre to be seen In the usual haunts of the 
"Yanks." 

Radford and Valentine are achieving quite 
a success an the Moss tour. 

1 have hnd a cheery letter from Chtng 
Ling Sac this week. He tells me that lie 
has been this .while back in the provinces 
starring with his own show and incidentally 
adding in his collect lor of Ills Majesty s 
pictures (on gold). He comes to town

nothing, has amassed a small fortune at bis 
profession. - He Is a man wbo delights In an 
ostentatious display of bis means, while 
under different conditions be la as quick to 
bide the fact that fortune has smiled upon 
him. 

An amusing instance Illustrating both sides 
of his character was related by an acquaint- 
ance of bis wbo had "gone broke" In tbe 
West, and who hap- 
pened not long ago to 
meet 'him one day on 
Broadway. After greet- 
ings bad been ex- 
changed, tbe moneyed 
manager, Indicating a 
high priced haberdash- 
ery in front of which 
they bad been stand- 
ing, said: 

"Come on in here 
with me, I've got to 
buy a few things." yw ( 

After ostentatiously ' 

giving an order Includ- 
ing several sets, of silk 
underwear, expensive 
hosiery, neckwear, and 
other things to corres- 
pond, he turned to the 
old acquaintance and 
said: 

"Have a necktie on 
me, will you?" The arti- 
cle being duly selected, 
the purse proud mana- 
ger took from his pocket 
a roll of yellow backed 
bills, and stripping from 
It one of high denom- 
ination, threw It care- 
lessly upon the counter 
as If It were so much 
worthless paper. 

This prosperous air 
however, disappeared a 
moment later. As tbe 
two gentlemen emerged 
from the shop, a less 
fortunate professional 
brother In seedy attire, 
accosted the moneyed 
manager and whispered 
a request that evidently 
concerned n loan. 

'Til divide with 
you," said the manager 
reaching far down Into 
a pocket and slowly drawing to view a tiny 
roll which proved to be two one-dollar bills 
"you know how bad business haa been, and 
I've suffered with the others. Here's a dol- 
lar I can let you have." 

Turning to bis friend who was regarding 
him somewhat qalzlcally after tbe other bud 
departed, the manager laughingly offered this 
explanation. . 

"Money, talks, you know,— the big roll 
would have talked too loud, so I keep a small 
roll for just such cases." 

9- 

Wllllam I«e lleehan, a popular young Bal- 
timore actor, by his quick thought turned a 
big laugh that bad been directed to him upon 
the person who caused it. 

The Incident happened during a perform- 
ance In which Mary Chadwlck, bis leading 
woman, was dividing honors and popularity 
with him. At the close of the second act, 
after much applause, they were called before 
tbe curtain, when a young man In the front 
row banded Miss Chadwlck a large bouquet of 
roses, then, presumably as a joke, he prof- 
ferred to Mr. Meeban a bunch of soup herbs 
and greens. There was loud laughter among 
the audience as tbe young actor received tbe 
unusual offering and proceeded to pin It upon 
bis coat lapel, with apparently as much ap- 
preciation aa It It had been a rose Instead. 
As soon as the merriment bad partially sub- 
sided, however, Meeban approached the foot- 
lights, and leaning toward the young man 
who bad brought forth the laugh at the act- 
or's expense, he tamed It upon him, saying: 

"tJh, by the way,— how Is your mother 
going to manage without these for your soup 
tonight?"

Charles C. fioblnson, the author of "The 
Banker's 'Clerk;" tells the following atory 




three relays of six or seven at a time. Aa 
the men bad arrived late and hungry, It took, 
In the words of McKenna, "considerable time 
to Oil the boys up," One of them, at tbe last 
table, noting that tbe landlady looked flurried 
and weary after cooking for and waiting on 
three tables full of hungry men, said sym- 
pathlilngly: 

"A big rush like this, Madam, must keep 
you pretty busy," 

"Oh, that's nothing," alio exclaimed, I'm 
used to this. We bavo all the theatrical com- 
panies stopping here. I had a big compnby of 
twenty 11 vo hero about two weeks ago." 

Aa no tbeatrlcal company of that slss plays 
small places like Sag Harbor, especially In 
Bummer time, the listeners were much myatl' 
fled. . Finally, one of them asked: 

"Can yau remember the name of the 
company, Madam?" 

"Why, yes," she answered readily, "there 
were twenty-five linemen from tbe Telephone 
Company."

AN 1> KIHl MA I- CAM. 



"Thanks, Doctor," said the patient, "what's 
yonr fee?" 

"Two dollars," was tbe anawer. 

"Ahem I" hesitated the young man, 
"couldn't you trust me for the amount till 
Saturday night when I'll get my salary?" 

"Certainly," was tbe genial reply. 

"How much will It cost to get this pre- 
scription filled?" was the next question. 

"Ob, I should say, about two dollars," re- 
plied tbe physician. 

"I havn't the price about me," said the 
yonth, "Bay Doctor, you know who I am, — 
couldn't you lend me tbe two to pay for the 
medicine." 

"Certainly," was tbe reply, "but wait a 
moment, — let me have the prescription." 

After looking It over carefully, the physi- 
cian drew his pen through about three-fourths 
of tbe number of drugs he had written on 



nerve, — I'm now convinced that you don't 
need anything for that."

"Datas," the young Englishman of phe- 
nominal memory for dates, has made a re- 
markable bit at the New York Theatre roof 
garden entertainment, His rapid and correct 
replies to the scores of questions put to him 
by people In tbe audience are a source of 
amazement to bis listeners. At bis very 
tongue's end be has the date of every Import- 
ant recorded historical event, concerning all 
countries and times. 

Interspersed among replies of a serious 
sort, Datas occasionally causes a laugh by a 
humorons anawer. Tbe other night, apropot 
of tbe present' butchers' strike that occupies 
so much space In tbe papers, and anxiety 
among consumers, a young man put to Datas 
a question concerning, the. price of meat,. 



"Ob," said Datas quickly, "that was a 
promise, not a date."

Tom McKenna writes of tbe combination 
minstrel company, organized for a Summer 
tour of pleasure, likewise profit,— that tbe 
jolly band of men comprising It are having 
tbelr share of trials during their engagements 
through tbe small towns of Long Island. 

As most of tbe hotels are filled with Sum- 
mer guests,- It la almost an Impossibility to 
get acommodatlons for tbe company. The 
proprietors show no desire to cater to the 
needs of show people, especially as tbe time 
Is for a dsy only. 

At Sag Harbor a boarding place was se- 
cured where the entire company of about 
twenty were to be eared for. Tbe landlady's 
dining room being of small dimensions, she 
arranged that the company should lunch In 



That a certain degree 
of formality Is doslrable 
Is suggested by the fol- 
lowing amusing story of 
a neighborly call : 

"flood evening," snld 
tlio elderly woman, up- 
proaclilng the steps. "I 
Heo you aro enjoying 
tlio fresh air. It's a 
luxury to be able to sit 
outside again, Isn't It?" 
"It Is pleasant," re- 
sponded the woman 
who was sitting on thni 
porch. 

"I don't believe yu\i 
know me. I am Mrs. 
iluxter, your neighbor, 
two doors off. No, 
don't got up. I'll just 
Hit down hero beside 
you. Don't say a word 
now. I have Intended 
to call ever since yau 
moved In, but yau 
know how It ls>. There's 
always something, And 
when I saw you come 
out and sit down I said 
to tny husband, .'I'm 
Just going to run over 
at once. If she thinks 
It Informal I don't 
mind, because I am In- 
formal. I always was.' 
And lio just laughed 
and told me to go ahead. 
He says he thinks; bo 
met your husband some 
years ago. now do you 
like your house? You 
needn't tell me, though, 
for I suppose you've 
hardly got used to It 
yot, and It's so discouraging getting set- 
tled; and then I saw Mrs. Thomas, your 
next door neighbor on the other side, 
a day or two ago, and sjhe tells me that 
you've been having awful trouble getting a 
servant You needn't say anything, I know 
exactly what It Is. I don't know what lbs 
girls are coming to, They don't seem to 
want to work, and they're most of them 
worthless when yon do get one. I've bad 
more — — " 

The other woman bad twice made a move- 
ment aa If to rise, but had been prevented 
by tbe detaining band of the Informal caller. 
Tbla time, however, she got up, 

"If you're wanting to aee Mrs. Gage, 
ma'am, you'll have to call again, for she's 
gone to the tbeayter, and won't be back till 
late," she said, with cold dignity. "I ain't 
Mrs. Gage, myself. I'm the cook." — Til-Diti. 

NOT AW ILLOGICAL CONCLUSION. 

An enterprising clothing merchant bad 
advertised on every board fence la bin 
neighborhood : "Unsurpassed Clothing. Money 
Back Without Argument," This la what re- 
cently occurred : 

"I was here a year ago and bought a suit 
of clothes. They are about worn out." 

"Yes," replied tbe merchant very affably. 

"And now I've com* to get my money 
without argument," . 

"Get your money back?" 

"Yes." 

"Didn't you wear the suit a whole year? 
What do you want your money back for."

News of the (lame. 

a. Jewott, tbe "Hull Invincible," has re- 
peated "his 1 remit rouble* performance of lost 
Cear by winning the Sheffield cbomploonblp 
tourney without losing n single game. Jew- 
ett for many years was considered, and Is 

vet, one of England's best "Against 

an equal, play the safest game you fcnmv. 
If be drnWH, play another safe one and 're- 
peat ; be la only a man, not n machine, and 
soouer or later he will make an error." 
— W. Dea'iiborn. Thlk reminds uh very 
much df tbe Crawford logic, original and 
Bound. Crawford believes In the waiting 
game, be believes it heat to let his opponent 
tire himself out ; Just make your very bent 
moves mid tben sit hark' nnd look happy 
while the cither fellow Is doing the worrvlug. 

J; v. Dixon, Tif Warrington, England, 

lins made an offer for copyright o( the games 
played In the recent Luglish championship 
tuttrney. and that. In the event of. Its nc- 
ceptntcce, the games will be nnnntnted and 

published by Prank Dunne In London 

there ure sixty-four entries for the Junior 
clnniploiwhlp: fire rounds ends the contest 
and two weeks Is allowed for tin* completion 
of each round. The first prize Ib a mild 
silver cup, to be won three- successive -timoit. 
or (lvo times collectively, before- becoming the 
personal property of any con tent nut. The 
winner and runner up In - each touruey. 
win gold and sliver medals. There Is il<w 
a special brilliancy prize If. O. Rob- 
inson, Sclangor, In The Huffulh I'lironMr. 
says: "The Malays play draught* on n board 
of 1D0 squares with 20 pieces n side. The 
game Is known m Dimi — It. would be curious 
lr the derivation of the word is akin to 
that of Scotch Dniubrod — and the Malay Is 
not at nil particular what he makes use of 
for pieces ; atones, shells, tlsli bones, nr 
anything that la hnmlv. The hoards are 
always In red and white sunn res. I lmve 
never seen a black nnd white one. The 
moves nre about the name ns those In Polish 
draught*, I don't think there Is any- font 
rule, iiliout black or white moving first. The 
men more diagonally, take forewurd, but 
not backward : the klug moves one. or mora 
suunres. as In the Polish game. When there 
Is more than one way of. capturing, the 
greater number of pieces pa am* must he 
token : this rulo applies lo both men and 
kings."

WHO WAIfTS HARTJSCBIFT PLATS AND VAUDEVILLE SKETCHES ? 

SPECIAL NOTICE TO THE PROFESSION I 

Many of the "Old Time" actors will remciiilier me. That I have tieon out of the imslness for a 
iiunrur of a cenltirylssuiistnntlal reason why the lalonlcd mombora of the present gone ration of artlsia 
will say: "Who Is her" snftlcn It to say that I "wits there"— as the saying goos— anil, pThapa, I wan 
"lucky to gel out of It." When I loft llio profession I did not dispose of my largo col loci Ion of manu- 
scripts, music, and numerous vaudeville acts— consisting of drsiuss, farces, comedies and sketches— 
all of which, like the provertilal army horse, I gavo shelter to din "in good hands." These have lieen 
carefully preserved and are now In the markel (or any ambitions Individual who cares to have them 
at n "mere sons." The leading characters o( tlioso 'scripts are Irish. Gorman and protean. My onre 
great (joinody Drama, "1. 0. U.," which I produced at New York, Philadelphia, London, and Ihroiigfi- 
outtlio principal cities of America and Knropo. Is, wtlliciita doubt, the host paying, sensational "go" 
that I cvci did. I played It 3,ooo times, and 11 always brought in the coin. It Is a protean play, with 
more work in 11 than "har In a mow." The character has nine changes and the oast Is small. This 
plav, with music, enn he hart for |60 I have several besntlful corned los. and ihey are "all wool and a 
yard wide," that I will send to the first buyer at. from $10 to $jo each. I hare some "great" Vaudeville 
acts that I will sell at fsesr.h. I have other "sitirr," and communication* addressed to Philadelphia, 
Pa., will reach me. Very respectfully yonrs. J. HOLMES (I ROVER.

CONCCBMINO 



ST1GE FOLK and Sometimes OTHERS 



BY JOSEPHINE OHO. 



Ernest Lamson, who about election time 
will open his season with last year's success, 
'•young Tobfl Horle," sends the following two 
Incident* wherein he played the principal 
roles. 

A few years ago, during hli Brat theatrical 
experiences, Lamaon learned that one should 
think twice before resorting to the law for 



formed him that he wouldn't accept the mule 
as a gift, much less pay anything for him. 
The young actor was furthermore Invited to 
take his mule and get out of the stable. 

Lamson says that after using some lan- 
guage not permitted In polite society, he 
grabbed the halter and led his property from 
the place, having at the moment no stopping 
place In mind. Reaching about the middle of 
the block he paused to decide what to do and 
where to go with his "white elephant." No 
sooner had he done so than a mob of young- 





the office he greeted his unwelcome caller 
with a forced smile, which, however, had do 
conciliatory effect, for the man gruffly ei- 
clalmed : 

"You have turned out a mule to starve la 
an empty lot, and made yourself liable to ar- 
rest for cruelty to animals." 

don't own such a thing aa a mule," said 
Lamaon In a brave voice, but with a sinking 
heart 

"You mean you don't want to own such a 
thing as a mule," retorted the agent of the 



rectlon of the city limits, which, however, be 
was destined not to reach. A mischievous 
youngster, with the Idea of hurrying thi 
animal's pace, gave It a resounding whack 
with a stick. A wild Jump landed mute and 
rider In front of a paaslng car. A moment 
later found Lamson about twenty feet from 
tbe track. As soon aa he could gather his 
temporarily scattered senses, be found that 
one of the animal's legs had been broken. 
This necessitated Its being shot by a police, 
man, while another man, who seemed to b«v» 
some authority, demanded |5 for carting the 
dead mule away. This Lamson gladly paid, 
though he was farther frightened by the car 
conductor taking his name and address. •■ 
tbe car had suffered some little damag* by 
the collision. Lamson, however, left tbe

redress. At tbat time he was playing in 
Chicago with a email company whose mana- 
ger was far In arrears with salaries. As the 
company was about to go to pieces a young 
lawyer persuaded Lamson to place with Mm 
bis claim tor collection. Armed with the 
necessary authority the lawyer proceeded to 
serve an attachment on the available prop- 
erty of tbe company. As a mule, used by the 
comedian In the first act of the play, was the 
only piece of property in sight, the young 
legal light, thinking himself exceedingly 
clever in securing so much for Lamson, ac- 
cepted the mule and gave a receipt in full 
for the actor's claim. 

Leaving tbe animal In the stable, where he 
was "eating his head off," the lawyer has- 
tened to Inform Lamaon of his brilliant play, 
boasting gleefully of how he bad bluffed the 
manager Into settling In full. Though Lam- 
eon was far from pleased with the nature of 
•he settlement, he paid the lawyer's fee of 
I1B, and proceeded to the stable to Investi- 
gate bis new property, also to dispose of It 

To his dismay he found tbat the mule was 
no longer a welcome Inmate of the equine 
boarding place, and that there were damages 
to pay to the extent of $10, for the animal 
bad broken oat of his stall and damaged that 
amount of flour that bad been stored In tbe 
Place. Proof was not lacking when Lamson 
beheld his property literally plastered with 
Dour, and, though unwilling, was obliged to 
settle wltb the owner, of the stable for the 
depredation committed by bis mule. 

Upon offering the animal to the man for 
s very small anm, tbat person wrathfolly lu- 





sters gathered about blm and set up a Jeer- 
ing and hooting tbat attracted tbe attention 
of a policeman, who ordered the owner of the 
animal to be on his wny and not block up the 
street. Though the scene was full of comedy, 
the unwilling comedian, wishing himself else- 
where, pushed through the crowd of yelling 
gamins and accomplished three or four blocks 
of distance, ' accompanied by a small rear 
guard of them. Just then an empty corner lot 
suggested a means of escape from bis dilemma, 
and, turning Into It, be tied the cause of bis 
annoyance to a fence at tbe back of the lot, 
and, turning Into a side street, went back to 
his hotel by a roundabout wav. only too glad 
to lose tbe amount of bis back salary In the 
male. 

The end of his troubles was not yet to be, 
for Lamson bad Just begun his soap that 
n'ght at dinner when a bell boy brought to 
him a card, bearing the name of "Henry 
Johnson, Humane Society." Proceeding to 



Humane Society, "but this poor, abandoned 
animal has been traced to you, and tbe law 
says you must 'feed and care' for your prop- 
erty." 

Lamson said he knew better than to argue 
wltb a man with a badge, so took s street 
car out to the vacant lot, where he found the 
usual crowd of small boys and a few of the 
neighbor* gathered about bis mule, and say- 
ing uncomplimentary things about Its ownsr. 

Making a "bluff" about the mule having 
escaped from bis stable, and expressing him- 
self as delighted to have found It, Lamson 
started, down the street, halter In band, to 
hunt a resting place for bis live stock. After 
an aimless walk of a few blocks It suddenly 
occurred to blm tbat a relative, living on a 
farm about ten miles distant from Chicago, 
might make some use of tbe animal. Desper- 
ately deciding to end his troubles that nlgbt, 
he mounted the mule and started In tb* dl- 



hotel early tbe next morning. Thus ended 
bis unhappy ownership of a "white muls," 
and never again did ha seek to get possession 
of bis salsry by means Of an "attachment." 



Lamson and a friend were walking serosa 
Thirty eighth Street, near tbe Knickerbocker 
Theatre, when they were accosted by a beg- 
gar. The actor, wbo often accords a little 
help to those who appear deserving, pnt bis 
band In bis pocket for a nickel tbat, as ba 
oddly expressed It, "wasn't working." Just 
aa he was about to confide It to the keeping 
of the beggar, be looked sharply at the man, 
then, to the surprise of bU friend, he passed 
on, replacing the coin In bis pocket with tbe 
remark: 

"Not for my money I" 

"Why did you cbang* your mind?" asked 
bla friend. 

"Because that beggar Is altogether too par- 
ticular snd sparing of his time," replied Lam- 
son, "I've met blm before." 

"How wss that?" said tbe actor'a friend, 
whose curiosity be gratified by relating bis 
former experience wltb tbe mendicant 

A few days previously Lamson bad been 
approached by tbe beggar wltb the request! 
"Help a poor, sick man, Slrl" Remember'ng 
tbat be bad a few pennies mixed up In bis 
pocket wltb some quarters and halves, be 
concluded to rid himself of tbe coppers and 
do a charitable tblng besides. It took lea* 
than a minute to separate them from tbe 
silver, but tbat appeared to be too long a 
time to suit Mr. Beggar, for Jast as Lamson 
waa picking out the fifth and last copper,

"Never mind ttat cent, harry op and give 
me the others, for since you aUrted to pick 
them out three. or four of my beat customers 
have passed by:" 

Out of I.(w Dockstader's stock of a thou-

Is the following, which was retold In a man- 
ager's office recently ; 

The merry, minstrel man, while exchanging 
stories one day with a group of friends Id s 
cafe, was 'introduced to a good looking young 
fellow, whpm one of the party addreiwed as 
"Doc." After passing a few remarks with 
the new acquaintance, Dockstader said : 

"And so you're a doctor; what division 
of tbe profession do you follow — medicine 
proper, teeth or feet? - ' ■■ 

"Well," was the rep)y, "though I'm fot- 
louilng the medical profession, I'm not yet a 
full fledged physician." 

"Oh," returned Dockstader, "so you've not 
yet graduated," and the subject of the con- 
versation was changed, after which It dropped 
entirely from the mind of the popular min- 
strel. 

a few weeks Ister Dockstader attended the 
'funeral of an acquaintance, when, to his sur- 
prise, the man who had been Introduced as 
"Doc" ; — — , appeared, and banded him, as 
well as other mourners, a camp stool, s 
service usually offered by a funeral director. 
Xfter .the services, when the minstrel fell 
Into conversation with the man, he remarked: 
' "I understood that you were a medical 
student ; how Is It that I find you here In the 

Capacity of " 

„ ."Ob," Interrupted the young man, "I did 
not tell you that — I merely said I was follow- 
ing the medical profession, and so I am — I'm

New* of the Game. 

Doubting Thomas's many, but none so 
Ftrong In their convictions as Dr. Scbaefer. 
lie. when meeting an assertion from some 
p'ayer regarding result of game or position. 
Invariably iaya : ' Bbow It to me," Implying 
that he wants to see It before he accepts the 
statement In line with this the following Is 
In order: "L. M. Stearns announces a 
new book he Is about to publish, showing an 
easy road to checker playing by new methods." 
lty this "new method" be proposes to teach 
tbe raw recruit more in six months than be 
would acquire In five years under tbe old 
method. Rather a broad assertion. Had sucb 
a statement been made by one of the ac- 
knowledged leaders of the game — Jordan, 
Barker or lleffner, for Instance — though dubi- 
ous, we might bave been anxious to become 
better acquainted with the moifua operandi, 
for we would dearly love to learn In six 
months what It baa heretofore taken us five 
years. However, we suggest .that Mr. Stearns 
try bis own medicine Brat, end' give pract'- 
cal and favorable demonstration or the result 
before making guch a. far-fetched assertion.

That tbe "Midget City" Is one of tbe lead- 
ing features of "Dreamland," Coney Island, 
ie attested by tbe enormous dally and nightly 
attendance, which reaches many thousands. 
The "City Is one of the most novel attrac- 
tions that hae ever been presented, the little 
people making It look like the land of Llllput, 
made popular In fairy books. When the Iden 
of the enterprise was first conceived there 
were those who doubted Its feasibility. But 
Richard Pltrot was not among tbe doubters. 
He went abroad and fairly scoured Europe 
for little people to fill the houses, apart- 
ments, stores and bazaars which go to make 
up the novel place. That he succeeded in his 
quest Is proved by tbe city as It Is today, 
peopled by little folks, few of whom are over 
thirty-sir Inches In height, and s star attrac- 
tion to children and grown people alike. The 
§reat success of the "Midget City" must, In- 
eed, be gratifying to all concerned, but espe- 
cially to him who conceived the Idea and 
bore tbe brunt of the burden In carrying It 
out, namely, Richard Pltrot.

In evidence as heretofore. Mr. Hoeffler at- 
tributes his uniform success in securing su-

moral Is very plain — advertise where results 
are attained.

management of Echols at Hawkins: We an; 
now In our thirteenth week, having opened

losing week. We are hooked through the 
West, playing only three night stands, ex- 
cepting our fair dates. The conditions 
through Western territory point to one of 
the most prosperous seasons In the history 
of the country. Politics, labor troubles and 
tbe St. Louis Fair are not causing any ills- 
turltanre In business circles there. If our 
business the past thirteen weeks Is an indi- 
cation of the future, we certainly have sub- 
stantial croiuids tor expecting a long and 
prosperous season. We have made some 
changes recently which have been greatly to 
our iR-nelit. ;' '.

It Is a great mistake that the most people 
labor under to tbink that the child actors 
and 'actrettes are overworked. Ill treated or 
unhappy, for It Is not so. There. Is not a 
child anion? them that la not kindly treated 
liv every member of tbe company, and loved 
according -to their good or bad conduct, but 
It Is only fair to say that nearly all the chil- 
dren of the stage are well behaved and lov- 
able. .. . 

Their health Is carefully watched, and they 
are well fed and protected from bad weather 
and draughts of nlr, and those, whose part* 
require them to lie up late, are persuaded to 
take a nap of a couple of hours In the after- 
noon. These little stars seldom go to school, 
so they have home training, which allows a 
large amount of rest aad time for out door 
exercise, which they are encouraged to take 
by way of tonic. Their hours of study, rest, 
diet, clothing und bathing, are all Oxed and 
administered with n care aad regularity that 
Insures their health, and Indeed they are all 
bright and rosy. And healthy, too. 

The nctora and actresses make pets of 
tbem and always hnve some little trifle 
In their pockets for the child actor or act- 
ress. Often the leading man will be seen 
trotting around with the baby star on his 
shoulder, or tbe heroine of the play will 
he seen busily engaged dressing a doll for 
the, little girl or helping to make a kite 
for the boy. Georgia Cnyran was never so 
happy a* when she could get a party of the 
little children of the stage off with her 
for a day In the park, and It In that way 
all through the profession. 

The first children I remember to have been 
on the stage were the Batemans, Kate and 
Rlleu. They did not have pretty parts writ- 
ten on. purpose for tbem where they could 
he Just their awn natural little selves, but 
they, played In the legitimate drama of the 
old school, and 1 remember seeing them play 
In Rarnum's Museum, In Philadelphia, in 
"Ulchard 111" aud "Macbeth." One of them 
was Richard, and the other had the- next 
strongest part In that tragedy, and It was 
wonderful how Well they played those heavy 
parts. In one of them oue child was Lady 
Macbeth, and she gave the dagger scene with 
great force. Hhe wore a velvet gown. They 
Both dressed in velvet a good deal, and It 
became them' well. They did not do the 
whole play,, as that would have been too 
arduous for such children, so they did only 
certain acts which were considered as the 
most powerful, and' other members of the 



everybody's heart as a little girl who loved 
her doll next to her 111 treated and unhappy 
brother After he bad finished h s engage- 
ment In the play Wallle traveled all i trough 
the country as little Lord Kauntleroy. 

Tommy Russell began play ng at a very 
early age. 1 remember bim In ' May Blos- 
som " I was playing Aunt Debbv. In "May 
Blossom," that season, and there f* J part In 
Ir where the little girl's pet Mjlfcjljl 
she get* all her child friends and fey have 
a funeral and bury the bird and kneel about 
the little grave. Some of the children were 
Small, only two and tnrwyaar. o d and one 
Ihe smallest, has to say ''poor little bird, Is 
it really dead?" and be could only say poo 
llty bold. 1th It wee'ly dead?" and when they 
nil got down on their kpeet. he threw his 
little head back so far that it was In danger 

oStSm my little grandson, Hatwood 
Ryan (I have two grandsons), was there 
and went on with the rest of the children, 
and maoaged to do all they did In proper 
manner, though but two years old, when the 
big chandelier attracted his eyes and he 
wouldn't leave the stage with the rest : of 
the children, but advanced to tbe rootllghts 
nnd held out both hands, working his fingers 
eagerly, as he said : "Me want It, me want 

Harwood's mother, known on the stage as 
Mllle Eldrldge, began her stage life when 
she was five years old In Barnum'e Museum, 
In Philadelphia, as the child In "The Strang- 
er." and played In child parts until she 
crew up. _ , 

Presay Eldrldge, my other grandson, hat 
played almost everywhere, and doubtless 
most of ihe readers of this have heard him 
sing nnd dance and play. I cannot some- 
how seem to understand that time does not 
stand still for children, and that they will 
grow old like the rest of u*.

Lucille Western had been obliged to en-

Is your name, little one';" the child lilted 
un her small tieml and screeched out Inno-

Poor Miss ftesurn tried to cover this by 
saying: "Your name la Leah, Is It not';' 
Bnt the youngster sturdily replied, "No, It 
is Mary Murphy." 

This brought the house down and spoiled 
the whole play. 

Many, many things are stored In memory 
of the doing* of the children of other days, 
nnd I love to think of them and it matters 
little to me that those aame children are 
men and women now, since they will always

A theatrical performance out of the or- 
dinary took place nt the Garrlck Theatre, 
London, Eng. July 10, for n charity bene- 
fit. After "The Fairy's Dilemma," the regu- 
lnr bill at the Garrlck, another play, by W. 
s. Gilbert, which was written some forty 
years ago, and had not been seen In Lon- 
don for a long time, was put on. Mr. Gilbert's 
work was "Itoseneranz and Gulldensteln," 
a parody on "Hamlet" Tbo odd feature of 
the performance was that all tbe roles In tbe 
burlesque were taken by eminent play- 
wrights, and the cast Included such names 
as Capt. Marshall, Anthony Hope, Bernard 
8haw and W. 8. Gilbert, who played King 
Claudius. 

In the plot It appears that King Claudius 
had In his youth written a Ave act tragedy 
mi bad that It ran for only ten minutes and 
received a frightful "roasting.". The tragedy la 
naturally a tender subject to Claudius, and, 
as he tells his queen, although the play was 
already five acta too long, he added a sixth, 
an act by which the penalty of death was 
meted out to alt who sneered at the play. 
The mere mention of the ill fated tragedy Is 
also fatal. 

Tbe Hamlet of the parody baa the same 
tendency to soliloquy which Shakespeare's 
hero exhibits, and causes considerable dis- 
tress at the court by falling Into a melan- 
choly monologue on all occasions. Conse- 
quently Roeencrana and Gulldensteln are 
summoned and Invited to try to put a stop 
to tbe unfortunate young man's mania for 
soliloquy. Ophelia, who is the daughter of 
the Lord Chamberlain, has been betrothed 
to Hamlet, but does not care for tbe prince, 
nnd cherishes a fondness for RoRencrantr. and 
a plan is concocted to get Hamlet out of the 
way. 

The one remaining copy of Claudius' 
tragedy Is In the possession of the Lord 
Cuamberlalo, and at the suggestion of Rosen-

crantz Ophelia steals It from bis study. Then 
Hamlet, all unconscious of tbe traitorous 
conspiracy. Is persuaded to act It, and a* the 
chief part contains many soliloquies the 
prince is delighted, and with the help of some 
strolling players presents the tragedy before 
tbe court ' 

Claudius Is enraged at seeing the tabooed 
tragedy presented before the- court with the 
prince In the star role, and poor Hamlet Is 
sentenced to be banished to a country called 
'Kngle-land," where dwells a cultured race 
who will enshrine this exile In their benrt*. 
As Claudius says, he believes tbe people there 
will put up with that sort of thing 
■ Hamlet, according to Ophelia, "Is Idiotic- 
ally sane, with lucid Intervals of Insanity." 
Captain Marshall's rendering of tbe role was 
said to be excellent, and the poor prince'* at- 
tempts to soliloquize were most amusing. 

».- 3. Gilbert as the heavy father with 
bushy eyebrows, was. so excellent as to al-

Hope. Col. Newnhsm Davis, Edward Rose 
and others, while Lady Colin Campbell- was 
the Queen, and Madeline Lucette rfyley was

as a sacrilege. ■ ,

earlier successes, was the magnet at tbla 
house Aug. 8, for the week, n good sized 
unit lure and n big night audience giving vent 
lo pleasure at the perfonnunnce In n deal of 
laughter nnd applause. It. was evident that 
nik'HiiI care had been given the production, 
nnd the cusl was n well chosen one. Jessie 
Izelt played the name role anil gave such a 
eliarm ami tintiirnlnesH to the Impersona-

ilences of favor from all parts of the

at his deed, he Is surprised by the return of 
his wife, who screams for her father. The 
elder man appears Id answer to her cry, and 
the husband Is greatly relieved to find that 
the murder was only a dream due to Ills 
nervous condition. The playlet Interested

and Helen Holland was most commendable, 
while Prank E. Jamison did capitally as the 
fullier. Krno, Welch nnd Melrose, In their 
highly perfected comedy acrobatic act, bad

mechanical orchestral offering, which has the 
element of novelty coupled with musical ex- 
cellence, was a well liked Introduction. The 
firesent Instrument Is said to lie a great 
mprovement upon tbe one which was first 
shown here several years ago, and It Is cer- 
tain- that the odd devise has a full, round 
tone which Is most effective. The Ford 
Brothers performed some dancing tents which 
were remarkably good, and tbe Aerial Hbaws, 
In ii thrilling trapeze act, were liberally re- 
wnnled with applause that was beyond doubt 
well merited. George II. Rrown and company, 
In the one act comedy, "(Jetting a Job, did 
some most agreeable work In the humorous 
line, and fullv earned the marks of approba-

Notes from RiNni.tsn Brotiikrs' Worlii's 
f.iiKATEHT Shows.— Monday. July m, found 
the hlg show at Kansas City, Mo., and. in 
spile of flip recent floods, two tremendous 
turnaways was the business record for the 
day. tola, Knn., on Tuesday, tested the ca- 
pacity of the big tents nt the matinee, and 
gave a splendid night business. Parsons, 
Wednesday, was equally hlg: Joplln, Mo.. 
on I'hursdny. gave mi afternoon tnninwii v 
itiul a big ulght attendance and Independ- 
ence, Kan., on Friday, was a surprise to 
everyone with the ,«orld's Greatest. This 
entire district played during the week has 
suffered greatly from the recent Hoods, 
crops are practically killed, ami all are 
guarding their dollars with a Jealous care. 
'1 bis, however, apiieared to have no effect on 
the business, as ut Independence every Beat 
was filled, nnd the hippodrome track crowd- 
ed at the day show aud the night business 
was also excellent. Wichita, the Saturday 
stand, although It was played on Oct. i:i. 
last year, making a return engagement In 
less than ten months, provided a tilg day's 
business for the largest on earth, after 
which the show was loaded and ran to Pu- 
eblo, Col., in seven sections. The mileage of 
this run. 401 miles, while not longer than the 
usual of tbe Klngllng's Western 8unday move- 
ments, owing to tbe poor tracks caused by 
the recent floods, made a late arrival at Pu- 
eblo, the last section not getting in until 
Monday at about 5 a. u. The recent strike.) 
In Colorado have made the business staff a 
trifle worried over the outcome. But Pueblo 
resiKindcd nobly on Monday and both It and 
Colorado Springs, the Tuesday stand, were 
greater than ever before from a financial 
standpoint, which proyes conclusively that 
even In tbe face of hard times, tbe people are 
willing to pay the price for amusements when 
they are of the high class that the Hlngllng* 
have always offered In the past ana this 
year excel In. Denver, Wednesday and Tburs 
day, Aug. 3 and 4. was Just a trifle better 
than last year. Out of the four performances 
three runaways were recorded. Boulder, Col., 
will be played on Friday, and Cheyenne, Wyo.. 
on Saturday, after which the show will take 
a .'iHi-mlle Jaunt on Sunday, to Ogden. Utah. 

Notes fiium the Lucky Bill Show. — We

28, at Garwood. Mo., for the first time this

though nothing had happened. Tbe Lucky 
Itlll Show consists of eighteen wagons, thirty- 
eight h«ad of horses, twelve head of Shetland 
ponies, sixteen head of monkeys, two bears,

Pan American Show Notes. — At Fulda. 
Minn.. Aug. 1, we encountered one of the 
heaviest hall storms that we ever experi- 
enced. The ideal Summer weather Induced 
many people to come from neighboring 
cities to witness our performsnee. Fine 
weather prevailed during the day until about 
'2 r. M.. when the black clouds began to 
gather. The thunder rolled and the light- 
ning Unshed, followed by wind and hall. 
A large crowd of people liad assembled 
under the big show tent to witness the nfter- 
noon performance but as the storm came 
up so suddenly there was no chance for the 
people to go to their homes for refuge. It 
was an occasion t lint made them feel that 
there was no plnce like "home, sweet home." 
The noise made by the wild anlmnls in the 
menagerie anil the cries of children made 
the situation an appalling one. The storm 
lasted about flfteeu minutes, during which 
time the wind blew the ring stock nnd cook 
tent to the ground nnd tbe heavy loud of 
hall stones ou the menagerie tent forced 
the cauvas and four of the centre 
wiles to the ground, turning over oue of the 
lion cages, as the canvas came down, but 
luckily no one wpas hurt. After about fif- 
teen minutes of stormy weather, the sun 
came peeping through the black clouds nnd 
as Its rays shone through the aionn torn 
canvas the people In the tent applauded; It 
seemed to bring a feeling of Joy over them. 
The riding rings were about a fool dcip 
with water, and after they were balled out 
the performance began and ran as smoothly 
as though there had been no storm at all. 
At our next stand, Jackson, Minn., we met 
Kleuel Bros.' Dog and Pany 8how, they hav- 
ing exhibited there a day previous to us. and 
nt our next stand. Wells. Minn., we met the 
advertising enr No. 1. pf Gentry Bros' 
Toiled Shows. During the dav their bill 
posters adorned the walls of Wells, announc- 
ing that Oentrv Bros.' United Shows would 
exhibit there on Aug. 17.

FACTS of Vital Importance to Every 
Sufferer of Blood Poison. 



FACT ONE— It takes time to tell wheth- 
er you are permanently cured by a treatment 
or merely patched up for the present.

only company or medical association In ex- 
istence that has been treating Blood Poison 
long enough to know that its patients are 
cured to euv cured. 

FACT THREE — The Cook Remedy Co. 
has many patients who were cured by Its 
magic remedy eighteen years ago who are 
today sound and well. 

FACT FOUR— The Cook Remedy Co. is 
the largest and the only successful company 

FACT eight— Good health Is the most 1 



In tbe world that makes the cure of Blood 
Poison a specialty. 

FACT FIVE— Patient, cored by Cook Rem 
cdy Co. are constantly passing successfully 
the various rigid examinations of the most 
conservative life Insurance companies, and

Anecdotes. Persooalities and Cornells, 

CONCIBNINO 

ST1GE FOLK and Sometimes OTHERS 

BY JOSEPHINE QRO. 

Every theatre end hall In the theatrical 
district of New York la filled with reheara- 
log companies, and even floors of empty 
bouses and lofts of buildings are utilized for 
tbls purpose. Notwithstanding the fact that 
to many professionals are busy beginning the 
season with the usual rehearsals, more peo- 
ple than ever appear to be "at liberty." 
Apropos of this oft advertised phrase, "at 
liberty," a condition or state In which no 
actor or actress, cares to linger, an Incident 
Is related by Minnie Louise Ferguson. 

Tbls popular actress bad closed her season 
and was visiting some cousins in a small 
Missouri town.: It soon became known that 
she was on the stage, and In consequence 
■be was the centre of Interest In the place 
where real, live Thespians seldom remained 
longer than the nsual "one night" Hiss Fer- 
guson's new acquaintances put many ques- 
tions to her regarding the stage, some of 
which were ridiculously funny to ber, though 
serious to the questioner. 

One stage struck youth of about sixteen 
years was a most persistent consumer of the 
actress' spare time through his numerous 
questions pertaining to the profession he so 
ardently longed to join. Among other 
queries one day, be put the following: 

"By the way, Miss Ferguson, will you tell 
me where Liberty Is 7" 

"Well," she replied, "yon know nearly 
every State has a Liberty— there are thirty- 
one towns of that name, besides several Lib- 
erty Bills and Llbertyvllles. Which one do 
yon refer to 7" 

"I mean the Liberty where so many ac- 
tors and actresses go when they're out ot a 
Job. They advertise In The Cupper that 
they're there, but don't say what State. I 
thought perhaps there was a general un- 
derstanding among theatrical people as to 
where the place was; besides, I thought It 
was such a popular place to advertise from 
that If I went there and advertised I might 
stand a better chance at getting a Job at 
acting." 

Miss Ferguson then 
explained to the youth 
that "at liberty" was 
very far from being, to 
professionals, the popu- 
lar place ■ he had mis- 
judged it to be. 
9 
The manager of a' 
popular road produc- 
tion, now In Its third 
season, tells how he 
once caused Lawrence 
Barrett an anxious two 
hours. At that time 
this manager was a 
stage aspirant, playing six or seven "super" 
parts In each performance the tragedian was 
giving. 

It was well, known In the company that 
the wardrobe mistress, who was of the same 
nationality as the star, kept her eyes and 
cars always open to catch both good and 111 
remarks concerning him, and that her adora- 
tion of him as a matchless star was as great 
as her contempt for the aspiring supernu- 
meraries beneath him. ' 

It was also well known that Barrett was 
exceedingly Interested in newspaper criti- 
cisms concerning himself, snd resented any 
overdue prominence given to others of the 
company — a star's prerogative, however. 

The young "super," who later gave up his 
histrionic longings to became a successful 
manager, was, and yet is, something of a 
practical joker. At one of the performances 
his appearance as a member of the "stand- 
ing army" was not needed until close to the 
end of the first act While awaiting the 
time to go on, he had perched himself upon 
a box far back on the stage, and was deep In 
a newspaper when interrupted by the ward- 
robe woman. 

"An - what Is It you're so busy reedln'T* 
'lie asked. 

"A great notice about myself," was the 
untruthful reply. 

"You 1 a notice about you— only a super," 
she scornfully exclaimed. 

"Yes," said the untruthful one, "at last 
s"me critic has noticed me. My talent must 
l! "ve stood out -well from among the herd In 
which I nightly make my appearance." 

"And what does the notice say?" asked 
i he woman, her curiosity aroused.' Where- 
upon the waggish "super" read a hundred 
words or more, created by his own brain, 
but apparently read from the paper In bis 



hand. The paragraph extolled the latent 
genius of the handsome young man, whose 
sole line bad been "Yes, my lord !" and pre- 
dicted a great future for him In the most 
flowery terms. 

Like tbe star ot the production, the ward- 
robe mistress also resented, on his account, 
any special notice not particularly deserved 
by any others of the company, so, hasten- 
ing to Barrett, who stood In the wings swatt- 
ing a cue, she pointed to the young man In 
the corner and whispered: 

"Mr. Barrett dear, I' advise you to look 
out for that upstart actor— he's getting fine 



ger, "when I hsd Barrett worried and guess- 
ing throughout a whole performance." 



A story concerning a popular bandmaster 
In Chicago comes from the Wltmark music 
headquarters. This leader's, natural German 
dialect li said to be the envy of all dialect 
comedians who aspire to honors similar to 
those of Louis Mann or Sam Bernard. 

During one of the park concerts In tbe 
windy city, among other Wltmark publica- 
tions on the programme was Salter and 
Bratton'e Instrumental novelette, "Laces and 
Graces." After finishing the "Sho Gun" se- 




with little or no experience,, frequently ex- 
pect to secure prominent parts. 

"Dear Sir," tbe application begins, "As I 
see by your Ci.irrxa add. you need actresses 
for your company and as I was thinking of 
going on the stags I thought I would drop 
yon a few lines to let you know that all ' 
though I am not an experienced actress, I 
have been on the stage a few times, and have 
snng a few parts In a Comedy company. 

. "I also have a twin sister who would Join 
your company and she also is quite a singer, 
and we could go as a sister teem. If yon 
think we would be sutable for a good part 
In your company will you let us know by 
return mall and I will send photo In receipt 
of your letter If you wish and will you please 
excuse paper and Oblige yours truly." 
(Signed).

Incident over the consideration of a transfer 
contract 

The transfer man, who was also tbe con- 
stable of the place, had faithfully promised 
to deliver the baggage of the company at the 
depot on Saturday nlgbt, or In time to catch 
tbe 5 i. u. Sunday morning train. Accord- 
ingly, the members of the company had as- 
sembled, half asleep and out of sorts at 
having to arise so early. No baggage ap- 
peared on tbe scene, however, and tbe train 
moved out without either company or bag- 
gage, while a weary and disgruntled lot of 
theatrical people awaited tho advent ot tbe 
transfer man with barsh words upon their 
lips, ready to assail him as the cause ot their 
discomfort 

Finally, when he appeared, an hour late, 
and the reason of his delinquency was de- 
manded, be said : 

"Don't be mad with me, boys — tbe dis- 
cipline of tbe taown bed to be maintained. 
There was a 'drunk' at the park, and I had 
to arrest blm. He's ben a-troublln' us for 
the last throe Saturdays, and Anally we bed 
to pull him In. You see, the carryln' out 
of tbe law la more Important than handlln' 
actor folks' baggage." 

A delay of twenty-four houra for a dozen 
people was ths trifling result of tbe con- 
stable-transfer msn's allegiance to duty.

To deal now with the lamented death of 
Wilson Barrett must seem stale, since the 
news of tbat untimely event was flashed all 
tbe world over by cable. It will not be un- 
interesting, however, to give a brief account 
of his many bued career. Wilson Barrett 
was the son of a farmer, and was born In 
Essex In 1846. Before he was eleven he bed 
committed tbe wbole of "Hamlet" and 
"Othello," and at tbe age of seventeen he 
began in earnest his career in tbe dramatic 

Erofesslon. While he waa touring In tbe 60's 
e married Miss Heath, and with her he 
made bla first appearance in London at the 
Surrey Theatre, In "East Lynne." Mlsa 
Heath died seventeen years ago. Mr. Bar- 
rett's principal ladles since her death in- 
cluded Miss Uostlake and Maud Jeffreys. It 
was In 1881 tbat Mr. Barrett began his fa- 
mous fire years' engagement of the Princess 
Theatre, London, producing "The Lights of 
London," "The Romany Bye," "The Silver 
King," "Claudlan," "Cbatterton," "Hamlet," 
"Junius," "Hoodmsn Blind" and "Slater 
-Mary," among other plays. In 1886 he 
toured, with Miss Kastlake, In tbe United 
States. Beturnlng to London In the follow- 
ing year he produced, In collaboration with 
Geo. B. Slim, "The Golden Ladder," and 
with Hall Cain, "The Good Old Times" Af- 
terwards he revisited America, made a tour 
in Australia, and opened the New Olympic 
'J hcatre In London. He produced "The Blgn 
of the Cross," at the Lyric, In 1808. After 
an extended absence from London he made 
a reappearance at the Adelphl In December, 
1002, In "The Christian King," a melodra- 
matic work of his own composition. Mr. 
Barrett shared In a high degree the reputa- 
tion of bis profession for generosity and at 
the recent Clement Scott benefit matinee be 
sent a check for £40 for two unreserved 
gallery seats. Indeed, of two things he was 
never weary— of hard work and well doing. 

Charles Wyndham and company finished 
up the season at tbe New Theatre on Wednes- 
day. Addressing the audience, at the close 
of the performance, Sir Charles said : "To

NOT** «OM I*W DOCKSTADM'B Ml». 

BTtBA—OaX 7«"°* «>' PMlse are heard 
lor tns Dockstader show, which opened the 
- at l'ouog » Pier, Atlantic City, July 



-J, playing to the capacity for the entire 
week. True to the prediction of Maou"er 
Decker, the show la larger and grander tli'ao, 
ever, two car loads of apeclal scenery and 
rlectrlcal effects are uaed to atage the nro- 
production. The flrat part representing "The 
Hall of Fame," la a magnificent piece of 
painter*! skill, painted by Louis Young. 
When the curtain rlaea It discloses sevo:ity 
people faultlessly attired In evening dress 
and all In black face. Twenty solo voices, 
under the direction of Prof Carl Schilling, 
comprise the Dockstader choir, and the en- 
<emble numbers rendered by this chorus 
should please the best of musical critics. 
Among the soloists are: Manuel Remain, 
Matt Keefe. Frank Coombs, Harry Ellis, 
era. F. Weller, Jag. B. Bradley, Win. B. 
McDonald, and Wm. H. Hallett Mr. Dock- 
stader has such capable assistants as Car- 
roll Johnson, Nell O'Brien, John King, Leigh- 
ton and Lelghton- Tommy Hyde and Billy 
Cowley are the comedians woo take rare 
of the end chairs. The first part concludes 
with a beautiful patriotic tableaux, showing 
Washington, Grant, Lee and Lincoln, and 
General Phil. Sheridan, mounted upon his 
black charger, making his famous ride to 
Winchester. A company of soldiers Is used 
to make this scene more realistic. 
Part two Is a diversion from the usual vaude- 
ville minstrel olio, each number being replete 
with special scenery, and assisted In by the 
entire company. Nell O'Brien has a new and 
novel Idea for making lauvhs In his rapid 
transit street car act A street car, with all 
the modern equipment, Is used on the stage, 
with Mr. O'Brien as conductor. Every speech 
of the conductor Is a laugh. John King, with 
his oysters and clams, and the animated 
posters. Is the next feature. Carroll John- 
son, "the Beau Brummell of minstrelsy," with 
n dancing contingent of twenty-four hand- 
somely costumed young ladles and gentle- 
men, every one a dancer, showed that he has 
lost none of bis old time gracefulness. Wm. 
Koe, clog dancer, and his fountain pedestal. 
Is another feature. This act, for which a 
portable fountain Is carried, Is a very pretty 
effect, and shows the dancer surrounded by 
sprays of water. Mr. Dockstader has a new 
Idea for modern locomotion that makes a de- 
cided success. This, with his new and op to 
date monologue, and his topical songs, proves 
that be Is, as of yore, progressive. The next 
number opens with a beautiful tableau, 
-'When the Lights are Low," showing the 
exterior of a Southern cabin. In the twilight, 
representing a typical plantation scene on 
the Mississippi Klver, with the boats going 
up and down, bales of cotton, and the South- 
ern darkey at his favorite pastime of crap 
shooting, singing and dancing. The num- 
ber Is a grand transformation scene repre- 
senting "Blrdlnnd" and "The Birth of the 
Water Lily." This Is a work of art, with 
Its beautiful blending of the painter's skill 
and the colored electric lights. The first 
scene shows the dense forest before day- 
break, with the birds asleep. They awaken 
and fly away at the rising of the bus. A 
transformation here takes place, showing 
the flight of the crows, which changes Into 
the picture of the Iris and water lilies, the 
whole closing with a scene showing gigantic 
water lilies, which open ana disclose a black 
face chorus singing the tuneful melody of 
the watcrllly chorus. One distinct feature 
of the entire production Is the well bal- 
anced concert orchestra, under the leader- 
ship of Carl Schllllrg. The entire produc- 
tion Is put on and staged by Manager Jus. 
II. Decker.

houce. , ..Weber's Parisian Widows had two 
big audiences at the Lyceum Band con- 
certs, at Chevy Chase Lake and Cabin John 
Bridge Parks, drew great throngs. 

John 13. Williaus, manager of the Osh- 
kosb, Wis., Opera House, telegraphs, under 
date of Aug. 15, as follows: "'In Old Ken- 
tucky' opened the season at my bouse (their 
twelfth season here) tonight, to standing 
room only.'* 

Under the tents, 

R. N. Haley, formerly a rube with Hlg. 
Sautclle's Circus, writes: "1 havo retired 
from tbe sbow business and am now con- 
nected with tbe Douglass Shoe Co,, In New 
York." 

Woods and Aurio are In their seventeenth 
week with Pawnee Bill's Wild West Show 
doing their bag punching act. Tbey have 
completed tbelr new pantomime act, "The 
Athletic Mr. Dooley," and will present It la 
vaudeville this season. 

Notes t'liou Cummins' Wild West Indian 
Congress. — Sunday, Aug. 7 proved an event- 
ful one with Col. Frederick 1 . Cummins, bead 
of this show, on the Pike. Tbe occasion was 
tbe testimonial benefit given the Indian 
leader l> v bis show friends at the Exposi- 
tion. To say that tbe affair was a huge 
success Is putting It mildly. Tbe blgge*t 
crowd that ever turned out to see an Indi- 
vidual attraction was present. The univer- 
sal verdict was that toe entertainment was 
the most unique and pleasing that ever took 
place la an arena. In tbe erand entree, which 
was headed by Colonel Cummins, were tbe 
Hale fire tighten In uniform, with their ap- 
paratus: Ilagenbeck's performing elephants, 
camels, dromedaries and natives from Darkest 
Asia, acrobats from Cairo, Constantinople ; 
McKay's Circus and Rome, dancing girls from 
nil of the Oriental shows, three bands, per- 
forming ostriches, and In fact a good portion 
of all the exhibitions to be seen on tbe Pike 
wus In evidence. In order to get all tbe con- 
trlbuted numbers on tbe programme It was 
necessary to put on a bait dozen turns at a 
time. The friends of tbe colonel were legion. 
In the boxes were many notables In tbe show 
business. Including Dick Plunkett, Chief Hale, 
Frank Talbot, Geaeral Cronje, Mark Stone, 
E. Robinson, G. Akoun, G. Nlcmy, Excels, 
Dan Sherman. H. Hngeubeck, .1. McConnell, 
H. ltoltnir und John Martell, Tbe admissions 
numbered about 30,000. Prets and public 
concurred that tbe show was tbe beat ever 
given and wished Col. Cummins unlimited 
success In blB enterprises. Tbe visiting 
Sbriners were In attendance in a body. 

Jay M. Overstxeet, general agent of tbe 
Pierce Amusement Co., writes : "I paid a 
visit to friends who are members of the 
great Forepangb-Sclls Show, In Oloversvllle, 
N. Y., on Aug. 11. A. Raymond Thompson, 
who bas a quartet of high school horses 
with the show, Introduced mo to all the 
people there. Mr. Thompson produced 
clears, and tbe hospitality of all was so 
"enlal that 1 shall long cherish tbe remem- 
brance of tbe visit. I was much Interested 
la the Improvement ot the entire show over 
past years, especially with the merit of the 
"loop the loop," and that of tbe vaulting 
'cvclist, both of which brought cheers of 
approval from tbe vast assemblage. Mr. 
Ileynolds' menage net was a feature of the 
performance, being ably assisted by Mrs, 
Faber, wbo drove Ibe handsome oIh.-k to 
the traps so dcxterlously : also Lola Milton, 
who rides one of the quartet, for ber grace 
arid skill In handling her mount. The re- 
mainder of the show passed without a bltcli, 
and to finish the evening twenty-ave mem- 
bers of the show were initiated Into tbe h. 
O. Eagles, of Oloversvllle. after wblcb a 
banquet' was spread for tbe new 'Eagles.' 
I parted with the Jolly fellows as section 
No. 1 was pulling out and only wlsb Ibc 
pleasures of the day were soon to be re- 
peated." _ , _ 

Notes mom tub La Mont- Bros.' Circus. 
—We have been playing to tine business 
during the past six weeks In Indiana. 1'he 
show Is much larger than last season, U 
we carry fifty people, forty-live head of stock 
and an eighty foot with a forty foot mid- 
dle for a big top, with a forty by sixty foot 
for side Bhow. Tbo side show Is under the 
direction of Mr. and Mrs. Porterfleld, nnd 
has been more than holding Its own. It It a 
common thing to see It crowded three times 
a day. KTbtf show is winning press re- 
gards as well as carrying tho money away. 
It Is sometimes strengthened by Chas. La 
Mont, In his aerial and slack wire acts. 
Mr. Lu Mont haB been with tbe big ones 
ond whenever he makes his appearance lie 
holds the people Interested. Our band, the 
test one we ever carried, is under tbe baton 
of Clarence McMackln, with. twelve solo mu- 
sicians. The ndvanco conalEts of five men. 
with It. Lee Clark contracting agent, sod 
H. C. Randolph, boss bill poster, with throe 
assistants. Much credit should be given 
It Lee Clark, our agent, for he has ocen 
doing excellent work ahead of the show. 
Ho has won many friends with the show 
people and all regret seeing him close, e» 
lie bas gone to his home, at Lafayette, Ind. 
At Remington, Ind., one of the lloooaxes 
gave birth to two baby lions. They are 
drawing much attention In the side show. 
At Montlcello. Ind., four ponies attached 
to a cage containing a Hon and a panther 
ran away. The pnnther Is still at large 
nnd tho La Mont show Is being widely yd- 
vertlscd In that part of tbe country, as the 
panther Is making things lively for tbe 
farmers. The Sim-Lett I Family closed at 
Idlewild and were replaced next day by the 
Kinlthlleld Brothers, six In number. Ibe 
show will make a longer tour than ttwnat 
season r.nd we will not pull Into Winter 
quarters until November.

DKOWN. HARRIS & BllOWN : Your act of "Walt n Minute" la the biggest hit that I have ever played. It la the funniest, cleanest and beat dressed act we ever saw. I never had nn act hold my people go. I thought juu 
bad a great act laat season, hut Ibis one la far better. KRED BUCHANAN, Mgr. Ingersoll Park, Dea Moines, la. 

BROWN, HARRIS & BROWN: Your act at this park this week la one of the biggest hita that we have ever played, and to say it is funny would not express It— It Is the neatest and best dressed act I ever saw, and If you 
have anything open the remainder of the Hummer season, you can have It here, and would bo glad to have you. KENT -A. KARNUM, Mgr. West End Heights l'ark, St. Louis, Mo., July 31. 

"WAIT A MINUTE" MARKS HIT. InRersoll l'ark Kklt Tickles Risibilities of Everyone.— "Wa It it Minutes," the title of an excruciatingly funny skit at Ingersoll rark Theatre this week, promises to be the hit of the sea 
ton. Brown, Harrison and Brown, the trio that Is the cause of all Ibis furore, constitute one of the best numbers offered on u bill nt the park. Ho funny, in fact. Is their performance, that everybody Is talking about' It, and the 
audience grows In numbers every night, the uttendunce ench nljrht resembling a Sunday audience more than that of a week day. Manager Buchanan bus reengaged the trio for next week — a very wise move, for this Is what the 
public wants.— THE CAPITAL, Wednesday, Aug. 10.

FACTS of Vital Importance to Every 
Sufferer of Blood Poison. 



FACT ONE — It takes time to tell wheth- 
er jou are permanently cured by a treatment 
or merely patched up for the present 

FACT TWO) — The Cook Remedy Co. Is the 
only company or medical association In ex- 
istence that has been treating Blood Poison 
long enough to know that its patients are 
cured to stay cured. 

FACT THREE — The Cook Remedy Co. 
hag many patients who were cured by Its 
magic remedy eighteen years ago who are 
today sound and well. 

FACT FOUR — The Cook Remedy Co. Is 
the largest and the only successful company 

FACT eight— Good health is the most I 



in the world that makes the core of Blood 

Poison a specialty. 

FACT FIVE — Patients cured by Cook Rem 
cdy Co. are constantly passing successfully 
tbe Tarious rigid examinations of the most 
conservative life Insurance companies, and 
are passing the examinations for admission 
to the army and navy of the United States. 

FACT SIX— If you take Cook Remedy Co.'a 
treatment under their guarantee you are ab- 
solutely sure of a cure or your money back. 

FACT" BBVBR— Every other method of 
treatment known to the medical profession 
gives but temporary relief, 
mportant thing In the world to any person. 



aBOYE EIGHT PACTS ABE AB801DTEITT JHUnUU. 

The Cook Remedy Co. solicit the most 
obstinate cases, and challenge the world for 
a case they cannot cure. This disease has al- 
ways baffled the skill of the most eminent 
Physicians. For many years the Cook Rent- 
ed? Co, bays made a specialty of treating 
this disease, and they have unlimited capital 
behind their unconditional guaranty. 

Ton can be treated at home for the same 

Srlce and wltb tbe same guaranty. With 
lose who nrefer to go to Chicago the Cook 
contract to cure them or 



pay railroad and hotel bills, and make no 
charge if they fall to cure.

catches, pains, rheumatism, etc., write for 
Cook Remedy Co.'s free home treatment book, 
and learn all about contaglona blood poison 
If you want medical advice, give a history of 
your case, and their physicians will furnish 
all the Information yon wish without any 
charge whatever 



Your salvation depends on Cook Remedy

Mildred Holland's success of last season, 
"The Triumph of an Empress," did so well 
that she will take the play out again this 
season. The booking tor It Is even better than 
that of last year, and this clever actress may 
well be proud ot the place she Is making tor 
herself In the theatrical world. 

Many prominent actresses have been mak- 
ing collections ot stage Jewels that are re- 
productions of those owned and worn by the 
nobility, but It remains for Miss Holland 
to surpass these by the magnificent "crown 



veloped the fact that most of the world's 
greet women were small In stature — Cleopa- 
tra, Helen of Troy, Charlotte Corday, Joan 
D'Arc and many others were beneath the 
average height recorded of women, therefore 
her anxiety concerning the required stature 
tor her new star part was of short duration. 



The recent advent of a son In the royal 
household of Bnasla, where there were small 
daughters galore, much to the sorrow of the 



The small girl, with swollen cheeks and 
tear wet eyes, came Into Miss Holland's 
room and lay the llttlo face on the arm ot 
the actrees, and, with a sob of pain, said : 

"Oh, Auntie, you don't know how my tooth 
hurts I" 

"Nonsense!" sa'd ber aunt, "such tiny 
teeth as yours are not big enough to ache— 
you're only Imagining the pain." Proceed- 
ing to explain some ot the tenets of the re- 
ligion, she soon talked the child almost, but 



Jewels" which she wears as Catherine the 
Great in her production. They are the exact 
replica of the Russian crown Jewels ot the 
time of that powerful empress, and Miss Hol- 
land Is to be congratulated upon the oppor- 
tunity afforded her to procure them. 

For three months last year Miss Holland 
was traveling in Russia In search of "local 
color" for her play, and while there was for- 
tunate enough to meet, through some friends, 
a prince, whose Influence procured her the 
privilege ot viewing the Jewels, which play 
a part in her production. She was permitted 
to sketch designs from them, and Beck, the 
famous Parisian Jeweler, reproduced the 
beautiful collection at a far greater coat than 
is usually applied to this portion of a stage 
wardrobe. 



When It became known last season that 
Miss nolland was to play the role of Cath- 
erine the Great, In "The Triumph of an Em- 
press," a certain manager was heard to re- 
jn«rk that be considered Miss Holland's

actress, who was deeply Interested In her

J°«tliy herself In assuming the role of one

museum, and Is said to have cost $100,000. 
Another group of visitors stood near, and 
one young girl remarked : 

"I don't see where the money Is In that 
old tarnished thing! I wonder what they're 
keeping It for anyway." 

"Because It's famous," replied another, 
who bad probably seen Klaw k Brlenger'a

race with?" 



Ray Comstock, manager ot "The Run- 
aways," Is still telling his Broadway friends 
about some of his experiences when he Joined 
the company on Ita Southern tour laat 
Spring. Here are a couple of his most 
treasured anecdotes : 

In an Alabama town be fell In with two 
traveling men who had been covering con- 
siderable territory by wagon. They had been 




Czar, Czarina, and the whole nation, elicited 
the remark from Miss Holland that perhaps 
now the Czarina would wear • happier ex- 
pression, for though while In Russia she had 
had a view of that great lady four times, aha 
saw each time only the deepest sorrow de- 
pleted In ber face. 

» 
Miss Holland la Interested In Christian 
Science, which so many of the profession 
have taken up during the past few years. 
Her latest convert la her small niece, who 
believes Implicitly every word ber fond aunt 
utters. The child's faith was severely tried 
not long ago, even though she felt the' pain 
she denied, according to the Christian Sci- 
ence belief. 



not quite, out of her belief In tbe tooth ache. 

A few minutes later the mother ot the 
little one came Into tbe room, and seeing 
signs of recent tears on her face, asked : 

"What's the matter, dearie?" 

"Oh," said the child, fresh from Instruction 
ln the belief ot her beloved aunt, "I thought 
I had the tooth ache, but Aunt Mildred ssys 
I haven't" 

That plays direct the mind of the public 
was Illustrated In tbe hearing of Miss Hol- 
land tbe other day while she was escorting 
some out ot town friends through the Metro- 
politan Museum. 

They bad Just been examining, through Its 
piste glass case, a Boman chariot ot the first 



compelled to stop wherever night found 
them, and at one farmhouse were received by 
the owner In true Southern hospitable style, 

At table tbe host arose and allowed bla 
glance to rove solemnly from the faces of bl« 
twelve children of various sizes to tbe ex- 
pectant countenances of his two guests. 

"Gentlemen," he said In sepulchral tones, 
"It hex alius been our custom to hev the 
fam'ly assist ln ssyln' grace. Each of my 
children sez a verse from the Scriptures, an' 
I shall expect you to do the ssme." 

Long before the middle sized child bad 
been reached In tbe course of that composite 
blessing, the two drummers were perspiring 
freely In tbe effort to recoil even a line from 
the Bible. At laat tbe fatal moment arrived, 
nnd tbe first traveler, In response to the 
host's gesture that meant bis turn, burst 
forth In strident tones : 

"Jesus wept." 

Involuntarily tbe otber drummer groaned 
aloud, for this wss tbe one veno that had 
also come to his memory. Casting upon bla 
companion an agonized glance, be muttered 
under his breath : 

"Sure, be did." 



At another town Mr. Comstock fell In with 
a young chap who was hound for tbe North. 
Naturally, they fell Into conversation, during 
the course of wblcb Comstock discovered 
that his new acquaintance balled from New

A few weeks ago I gave an extract from 
an article In The Btaae on tbe great exodus 
of English players this season to America, 
and now The Daily Chronicle gives tbe de- 
talla of Charles Frohman's widespread plans : 
"Playgoers will express surprise when they 
learn that nearly all tbe leading English 
actors have been engaged by Charlea troh- 
man to visit America during the next few 
months, and that Mr. Frolirann Intends Im- 

Sortlng various 'stars' from tbe United 
tates to take their places temporarily. Mr. 
Frohman has become tbe most prominent 
theatrical manager In the world. He Is a 
keen lover of the drama and a shrewd man 
of business. lie believes In paying good 
salaries to good players. Regarding his busi- 
ness with playwrights, he Informed a Daily 
Chrontclo representative before leaving Eng- 
land that be has secured unnamed comedies 
by A. W. l'lnero. Itobert Marshall, II. A. 
Jones, J. M. Bnrrle, Iladdon Chambers, Au- 
gustus Thomas. Clyde Pitch, Henry 0. Cnrle- 
ton, William Gillette, Paul Potter and II. V. 
Esmond. When Kir. Plnero's new play has 
been produced at Wyndhom's, and has run 
Its course, Mr. Frohman will bring over Wil- 
liam Collier to play at this bouse In Richard 
Harding Davis' piece, 'The Dictator,' and In 
Augustus Thomas' farce, 'On the Quiet.' He 
also Intends that Maude Adams shall make 
her long deferred appearance In London In a 
new play, probably by Mr. Zangwlll. Knrly 
next month he will reopen tbe Duke of York's 
with Mr. Zengwlll's play, 'Merely Mary Ann, - 
In which Eleanor Robeon will have the prin- 
cipal role. Miss Itobson is due In London ou 
Thursday. Mr. Frohman has also bought a 
dramatization of Kudyard Kipling's 'Tbe 
Godsbys,' and a novelty by Cosmo Gordon 
Lennox, entitled 'Tbe Indiscretion of Mr. 
Kingsley.' The English 'stars' going to 
America Include Charles Wyndham and Mary 
Moore, who will leave London to October, 
and remain In the United States (or three 
months; Mrs. Patrick Campbell, who will ap- 
pear In an English version of Bardou's 'La 
Bnrclore,' and will play In America for twen- 
ty-eight weeks : II. li. Irving and Irene Van- 
brugh, Seymour Illcks end Ellallne Terrlss, 
Ellen Terry, who will he seen In J. M. 
Ttnrrlc's new comedy; Marie Tempest and 
John Hare. Mr. Frohman has arranged fur 
Henry Irving to make bis farewell appearance 
In America under his management, and he 
has further agreed with George Edwardes (or 
a tour In the United States of the company 
now playing 'Veronlque,' at the Apollo. Mr. 
Frohman also Informed n Daily Chronicle 
representative that tbe theatre to be built 
for him In Shaftesbury Avenue will be 'the 
finest In London.' nnd that, with the Empire 
Theatre, in New York, It will give him two 
lending theatres (or original dramatic pro- 
ductions in England and America." 

It has fallen to the lot of the Inventive 
dramatist In discover a virtue In radium 
hitherto unknown to science. At least so It 
would appear from !■'. A. Sciidnniorc's "The 
Renutlfui Avenger," produced at the Grand 
Theatre, Fulunni, last Monday night. The 
villain of this curious piece is checked In his 
career of crime by the production of a phial 
containing the mysterious clement. As It Is 
the fashion In modern drama to hove two 
villains In a piece, the second offender meetB 
with a similar fate at tbe hands of the 
avenger. The author has a certain eye (or 
dramatic effect, born apparently of the singe, 
but bis ploy suffers from an excess of in- 
cidents which confuse tbe mnln Issue. He 
starts with a good Idea In depicting a young 
nrllst struggling with adversity, and ulti- 
mately falling Into the hands of a rascally 
money leader. Ills rescue Is effected by n 
guardian angel, who assumes masculine garb, 
and confounds her enemies by the liberal use 
of radium flashes. It Is nil very Interesting 
In Its way, but by no means convincing. The 
play was well rust, Daisy Seudamore being 
remarkably good In the role of the avenger, 
and Prank Ilnrdlng giving n very finished 
performance ns Hie money lender. 

James Welch and the principal members of 
Ms South African company arrived In Lon- 
don on Friday Inst. On Thursday week Mr. 
Welch will commence at the Opera House, 
Buxton, a tour of the leading provluclal 
towns. In "The New Clown." 

W. L. Courtney Is adapting for Olga Neth- 
ereole "Le Dcdiile," it strong but decidedly 
unpleasant play by l'nul Hervleu, produced 
at the Theatre Krancila Inst December. The 
dedale, or maze, of the plat Is that con- 
structed (or herself by n wife, who, having 
for good and sufficient reasons divorced her 
husband and married ngnln, meets that hus- 
band at Hie bedside of their sick child, nnd 
then Is promptly persuaded by him to be false 
to bis successor. All hough the heroine Is 
supposed to be n gond woman, and though 
she suffers poetic Justice for her matrlmonlnl 
Indiscretion In the melodramatic loss of both 
her husbands, the odnptcr will, I Imagine, 
find some difficulty in gaining (or her tbe ap-

OUR AUSTRALIAN LETTER. 



(TROll OU-S OWN CORRESPONDENT.) 

Syunf.t, July. 18. 

The great theatrical event was the first 
production of "Fiddle-Dee-Dee" At the Palace 
Theatre, which opened 10 wltb a company 
brought out by Harry James, consisting of 
Kolb and Dill. Barney Bernard, Maude Am- 
ber, Wlnfleld lllake and a host of other play- 
ers. The verdict will really rest wltb tne 
public, ns the option of any one critic, or (or 
that matter, nil of them, will not affect It 
one way or the other. However, tbe Impres- 
sion of all who hurt: witnessed It Is that It 
will catch on, and If It does they will sim- 
ply colu money Saturday evening, July 10, 
tbe opening night, was a time of anxiety 
to all the company before tbe curtain rose, 
as there was no telling what the Australian 
public would tbluk of the show, and, being 
thousuiids of miles from "home, all hearts 
were In a flutter. Tbe bouse was packed, 
extra seat chairs and benchea being placed In 
every available space, and hundreds being 
turned away, unable to gain even stnndlug 
room. The audience was a One one. The 
house held In money about 11,-00, at prices 
of $1.00, 70 cents, 60 cents and 20 cents, 
or 4, 3, '£ aud 1 shillings. Ou the raising of 
the curtain not a murmur came from the 
house. The opening chorus was encored, and 
the next number received two encores. Maud 
Amber's entrance was splendid, tbe duet by 
Blake aud Amber won four encores, and tbe 
entrance of Kolb and Dill evoked a line re- 
ception, and tbey made an Instantaneous suc- 
cess. There was nothing but screams of 
laughter during their dialogue. Barney Ber- 
nard also got a great reception. He caught 
on from tbe start, and was tbe recipient of 
applause on each subsequent appearance. 
From the looks of the first night s show it 
Hceius to spell a great success for tbe com- 
pany In the colonies, and s long run of "Fid- 
die-Dee-Dee." Tbe properties and stage set- 
tings, the work of Samuel D. Simmons Jr., late 
master mechanic of Fischer's Theatre, San 
Francisco, and a member of the company lu 
the same capacity, were a revelation. 

At Her Majesty's Theatre, "Tspu," a new 
Zealand opera, computed by New Zenlauders 
Is In Its second week aud drawing crowded 
houses. They Introduce lu It a native Haka 
dance by genulue Maori boys and the ballei 
also gives good representation of tbe world- 
renowned Pol duuee, which alone Is worth 
the admission money. 

At the Theatre Royal good bouses have fol- 
lowed the revival or the naval and military 
drama, "Tbe Union Jack," and Bland Holt 
Is once more to the front wltb bis Inimitable 
low comedy business. 

At the Lyceum Theatre only five more per- 
formances can be given of "The Power of 
Gold," In which Walter Sanford'a American 
players appear, aud on Saturday next "The 
Struggle for Life" Is to be produced. In which 
there will be tableaux Illustrating New York. 

"In the Palace of tbe King" Is going to 
bo produced also next Saturday at the Crit- 
erion with a company headed by Ernest 
Knight. In the meanwhile, 3. C. William- 
son's Comedy Co. Is doing great business with 
"The Marriage of Kitty?' 

Tho principal attraction at the Tivoll Is 
Will Van Allen, one of the latest arrival - 
In Sydney under engagement to Mr. Rlckards, 
who made his debut on Saturday. Like many 
others In bis particular line of business, he 
Impersonates the character of a tramp, to 
glvo the effect of contrast to bis perform- 
ance. He gave an admirably played operatic 
piece on a one- string violin, nnd his banjo 
boIo showed high skill. He was also most 
amusing In his repertory, representing a mu- 
sical dinner. The Uessems again bewildered 
the audience by their astonishing skill as 
equilibrists, and tbe Misses Moller and Tel- 
ler, assisted by Dan Burke, repeated their 
sketch, "The Professor and Ills Pupils,"

Notes from Hyde's Comedy Co. — We are 
sorry to see our tenting season drawing to a 
close, as It has been both profitable and pleas- 
ant. We go from here (Dexter, Me.) to Camp 
Benson, Newport, Me., for ten days, by re- 
quest, and then to Camp Etna (Etna Park), 
for one week, and that closes our tenting 
season. We open our hall season at Mllo. 
Me., and have good bookings for the Fall 
season. The roster of the company is the 
same as at last writing. Business Is of the 
best and every one Is hippy. We will be 
obliged to make some changes In our roster 
later, owing to some members of our company 
closing to Join other companies, as per pre- 
vious arrangements, but we expect to have 
good people take their places. Better ones 
are hard to find than those we have with us.

upon their concluding weeks Sunday night. 
On Snnday afternoon Ibe two local repre- 
sentatives of the burlesque "wheel" — tbe 
Folly and Trocadero — begin their season after 
a thorough process of reconstruction. The 
Folly adds a new name to the local catalogue, 
bur there Is no new theatre to match It, the 
uhnie of Hopkins' Theatre having been 
changed, along with the policy of the house. 
Hopkins' previously played burlesque attrac- 
tions but last Autumn it went over to the 
Stair a Havlin circuit of popular priced dra- 
matic houses. Owing to unsatisfactory business 
under the rule of dramatic art the house now 
returns to burlesque. Frsok B. Carr's 
Thoroughbreds will open the new era at the 
Folly and Robert Fulton's own road show, 
the Jolly Grass Widows, will start the sea- 
son at Trocadero. The week stands opening

Chicago Opera House and stock burlesque 
at Sam T. Jack's, along with Hummer park 
entertainment at Sans Soucl, Water Chutes 
and Rlvervlew, constitute the amusement 
bill of fare for the current days. Brooke's

Pompeii," out on tbe West side, are attrac- 
tions In a class by themselves. Next Sun-

vival of "Wang," to the Garrlck Theatre, 
and the new Hamilton-Mitchell production,

gin another season of musical stock, and 
the regular season at Powers', the Illinois

Players' Stock Co., at the Bush Temple 
of Music, will also be In line by Labor 
Day and the new stock company at 
tbe People's Theatre will likewise begin op- 
erations within a fortnight. With few 
exceptions every theatre which la likely to 
bid for local patronage this season will be In 
operation by Sept. C. Aside from (be pros- 
pect of Immediate activities, there la a prom- 
ise of lively times hereabouts "when Summer 
comes again." There la sure to be four and 
possibly five Summer parks in operation with- 
in the broad confines of Cook County next 
Spring. Rlvervlew has proven a success dur- 
ing Its first season, in spite of generally un- 
favorable weather conditions : Sans Soucl and 
Water Chutes will maintain their accustomed 
station In popular favor and one, perhaps 
two, additional Summer outing spots are con- 
templated. Paul 1). Ilowse, long associated

Avenue, for the purpose of conducting an 
out-door amusement resort. The season will 
open May 1,1. next, and will last for four and 
a half months, au uniisuallly long term fur 
Chicago parks. Paul l>. Ilowse, who will be 
general manager of the new pnrk, Informs 
mo that there Is a sufficiency of money 
In sight to carry to completion the 
moat elaborate plans ever made for an 
amusement resort of like character In the 
Weat. The work of filling In the property 
has begun, trad the strnctiu-nl arrangements

Ilowse states that the best features of Luna 
Park and Dreamland will be Incorpnr-ltcd

Miner's Dowery Theatre (Edwin I). 
Mltinr, mniingitri. — The new season was Inau- 
gurated Saturday evening, Aug. 20. Despite 
the humidity a large anted house collected 
In order to greet the old favorite, Cbarlcv 
Barton, at the head of Rice A Barton's Co. 
The entertainment consisted of a farce come- 
dy, entitled "A Night at Manhattan Beach." 
The eRcapades of Mr. Black (portrayed by 
Mr. Barton) were as ludicrous os eycr, and 
the Ingenious methods by which he got out 
Of scrapes canned much amtisemenl. 'Mr 
Barton was ably assisted by Annie Dunn, 
who contributed excellent work as Mrs 
Bljick; Bert Baker, os Mr. White; Kitty 
Hart, as Mrs. White; Amy Nelson, aa 
Stella, and Mork Hart as Dr. Green. 
Kndhy Vedder and M isk Seymour ' were vi- 
vacious as the two actresses who caused tbe 
trouble. Messrs. i loppy. Goldsmith, flllroy, 
141 Rue, lleiizette, and Miss Baker contrlb- 
utod eultavle assistance. Tbe cooAib- 
liidlis, Including Nellie Lnnren. Rose Htlll-

HTipr.nlflcH Included severnl novel numbers. 
Bert Baker, iu a monologue, parody and 
extemporaneous «ong, ; opeued the list. Tbe 
Seymour Slaters were lively nnd sang and

ical ncrobatlc act, caused plenty of laughter 
by their antics and genuine surprise at

and Montgomery presented a pleasing act 
hM on board a yacht. Splendidly sung solos, 
duets and trios, nnd Mr. Gllroy's telling work 
RB, . tl|e cnl'ln boy comedian, made up an 
excellent untortalnment. Goldsmith and 
Honpy closed the olio. Their musical 
act, . -with Mr. Uoppy as the Jew com- 
edian, furhlBhed melody through the

Miner's KI»tU«h Avrnnr Theatre (Ed- 
win D. Miner, manager). — The Imperlul Bur- 
lemiuers opened their New York engagement 
and also the season of the Bigbtb Avenue 
Theatre to a large and enthusiastic audience 
evening of Aug. 22. "The Gay Widow 
Bro*u, ■ n one act musical comedy, of which 
Frederick Solomon wrote both words nnd 
music, proved to be enjoyable. The entire 
company uluyed with a snap which carried 
the piece far towards success. In the vaude- 
ville section, Flossie Coy contributed largely 
to ' the ' pleasure of tho audience, with her 
deep contralto voice; Mcltuy and Wyatt, In 
a "comedy sketch, caused much laughter and 
applause; Lillian and Reno Washburn were 
given the most enthusiastic reception of tbe 
evening and their songs and conversation 
proved: their right to tbe recognition they re- 
ceived ; the Musical BellB pleased great fv In 
a musical act ; - Kmmonds, Kmerson and lOui- 
monds hud a kborkabout act which was suc- 
cessful and Geto, H. Diamond won repented 
encores In Illustrated songs. "The Girt from 
the West," a one act burlesque, closed tbe 
performance. The book was by Tom Mcltav 
mid Arllne Wyatt, the latter being responsi- 
ble for tbe lyrics and music also. Tbe hu- 
mor was pronounced and the piece reflected 
credit on Its sponsors, who were promi- 
nent as fun makers throughout. M. J. 
Kelly, as Pete Jones, a cowboy, wna 
decidedly forceful and amusing:, and 
Charles Knluionds aa Reggie Kulrsei, 
anq.Mort JUUerson as Soulful Ham, were de- 
cidedly laughable In tbelr efforts to evade 
the , numerous revolver shots from Pole. The 
plots of the opening aud closing bills were 
minor considerations, and easily lost sight of 
In the melange. The generally good work of 

Srliiiipais aud chorus, and the successive 
'nbluy of gorgeous costumes showed the' de- 
sire of the mnungement to plense tbe eye aa 
well as the ear. The cast of "The Qlrl from

nntely ployed during the week by Corn Qirln- 
fon and Baby Kelfe, and on Monday mati- 
nee tbe character was creditably enacted by 
Baby Kelfe, who stood tbe strain -well and 
captivated tbe audience. A special feature, 
worthy of mention, was Gertrude Hayoes ana 
ber.Celestian Choir, their slng!ng In the las', 
act calling for hearty encores. Sunday's con- 
certs, Ang. 21, drew good houses. Next

Harriet Theatre (Charles Frohman, 
manager). — "Military Mad," a three act com- 
edy, adapted by Leo Dltrlchsteln from the 
German of Frana von Schonthan, opened 
this house for the regular season on Aug. 
22; The play, which was preaented on that 
date for tbe first time In New York,, wan 
originally produced nt tbe Iiyertint Theatre, 
New London, Conn., on Aug. 1(1. Mr. Dlt- 
rlchHtcin cannot be credited In this instance 
with having dipped his pen with very happy 
results, In spite of tbe fact that the work 
In' Its original was a good Inspiration, fudg- 
ing from the success It attained at tbe Irvlag 
Plncc Theatre about a year ago, when, aa 
" I in Ilnnten Rock," it ran with credit It 
Is meant as a satire upon the "military mad'' 
Germany of the present day, but the adapta- 
tion gives only a suggestion of this satire, 
and exploits, Instead, a number of Incidents 
dragged in by the heels, in many cases, 
and treated In a lame fashion. There 
are. However, some humorous Incidents scat- 
tered here and there Which give some com- 
[MOisntlon for the lagging action of the piece 

Sfl r whole. Its story may be summed op 
rlofiy en follows: Karl Ilartwlg has '-a unru- 
lier of German officers quartered at lils home 
during a sham battle, and one of them, Lieut. 
Von lloheireck, falls In love with his adopted 
iih'ce, whom Karl Is anxious to marry oil' to 
blR son, Hans. . Tbe son is, In plain terms, 
an Incompetent, and the young lieutenant 
eventually carries off the prize. Mr. Dlt* 
rlfhsfsln played the lending role, and played 
It well, giving deft touches here and there 
which showed his skill In comedy creations 
to marked advantage. Ida COttbuest played 
a .young American Southern girl with quite 
good dialect nod general excellence through- 
out. Her acting was particularly fine In 
act two, where she Is called upon to carry 
fiiscepe of repressed emotion. Henry Kof- 
kar made n fait 'In bla one scene, and 
TnomaM Wise wis screamingly funny when- 
ever' he bad the slightest chance. Henry V. 
Donnelly played Karl Hartwlg with his usual 
cleverness, making every point tell, while 
the role of Hans, bis son, was well taken 
care of by George Henry Trader. The cast ;

• London Theatre. — Saturday evening, 
Aug. 2 p. saw the Inauguration of tbe season 
nt' thin bouse In splchdla style. Robert Mnn- 
iliester was the purveyor of amusements for 
the evening, and his Cracker Jacks uroyed 
themselves fully able to show a perfect right 
to- the title. "A Jolly Ilucbelor'' is tbe title 
of the llrat part Carl Anderson, as, the 
bachelor, entertained tbe ladles In good style. 
Ruby Leoml was a dasblng Kstelle, and dis- 
played a beautiful gown. A'he general effect 
of the costumes and scenery was radiant. 
Tbe musical numbers made a hit. The finale, 
"On the Gay JUtlto," was repeatedly encored. 
8am J. Adams opened tbe olio with his clever 
diameter Impersonations ; tbe Greene Sisters 
giive a spirited act ; Belle Hathaway's ba- 
boons and monkey actors were entertaining 
through tbelr funny antics ; the Wang Doodle 
Four (Erb Robinson. Julius Glenn, Harvey

selves favorites from tbe start by their 
methods. They harmonized excellently and

Alexander Brothers and James Brady, were 
given a number of encores, which they mer- 
ited, and the Billon Brothers, who bave not 
beense^n here for some time,' were ns effective 
as ever. Wolf and Milton made a good impres- 
sion with a comedy acrobatic act out of the 
ordinary and Shannon and Dixon also acored 
well. A decided success was that which 
Bertie -Fowler ^claimed for her own, in an 
act pf excellence. Others on the bill were;

condition of things on Aug. 22. when One 
of the best bills of- tbe Summer was pre- 
sented. Henry Lee, In his masterful Im- 
personations of great men, past and present, 
holds the head position on the bill, and 
right' worthily, too, as he baa no' peer In

qiilte a little' comedy dialogue and Imita- 
tions of prominent professional people. It 
pleased the Monday audiences afwl encores

Next in favor came "Tbe Watermelon Trust,"

Oh, she waa from Missouri, and she had to seo

And thus she worked Chicago for a good old

There are so many objective lenses on the 
market that are merely apologies for what 
they ought to be tbat exhibitors of moving 
pictures and stereoptlcon views who are not 
optical experts frequently use second rate 
lenses, without knowing how much better 
work can be done with higher quality ob- 
jectives. The above Illustration shows the 
lenaes which are recognized aa standards, 
with prices for the best quality. 

The one at the left has the shortest focus, 
and Is therefore a short distance lens. From 
the left to the right the focus lengthens aid 
the objectives are used at gradually Increas- 
ing distances. 

In order to obtain the best possible Illu- 
mination on the curtain the longer distance 
objectives should be larger; that Is to say, 
the diameter of the lenses greater than the 
shorter distance. 

The standard one-quarter size objective 
projects a stereoptlcon view whose size equals 
one-halt the distance between Instrument

and curtain, and can be used at any distance 
up to fifty feet. 

The standard one-third size objective pro- 
jects a stereoptlcon view whose size equals 
four-tenths of the distance between Instru- 
ment and curtain. 

The standard one-half size objective pro- 
jects a view whose size equals three-tenths 
of the distance between Instrument and cur- 
tain. 

The standard two-thirds objective projects 
a view whose size equals one-quarter of the 
distance between Instrument and curtain. 

The standard four-quarter size objective 
projects a view whose size equals one-fifth 
of the distance between instrument and cur- 
tain. 

Aa the standard long focus objectives are 
expensive, the same focus Is frequently put 
up in a smaller mounting, either cne-quarter 
size or one-half size, which reduces tbe cost 
When the four-quarter focus Is put up In a 
ono-quarter size mounting the Illumination 



Is greatly reduced ; when put up In a one- 
half site mounting the results are fair when 
used with electric or lime light. 

Moving picture lenses are of very short 
focus, and therefore put up In a mounting 
either one-quarter size or Bmaller. 

In addition to these standard foci we have 
developed a series of objectives for further 
distances to answer even practical require- 
ment These project a picture whose size Is 
proportion to distance between Instrument 
and curtain Is as one to six, one to seven, 
one to eight, one to nine, and one to ten. 

Our catalogue explains these matters In 
detail. 

Oar No. BOO dissolving stereoptlcon and 
No. 100 single lantern will take any of tbe 
standard objectives from tbe one-quarter size 
to the four-quarters. 

We can equip Edison Klnetoscope. 
with long distance stereoptlcon objectives In 
the one-half size mounting. If the lenses tbat 
accompany the Instruments project too large 
a picture at long distances.

This Is tbe wonder 

"Chime" song 

they're all talking 

about. 



Funny beyond description. It Is creating a 
veritable sensation, and looks like another 
"Oh, Didn't He Ramble," bit 

Oh, my, what a hit ! The greatest coon shout 
ever written. Sung by Lew Doekstader him- 
self. Ten encores nightly. Get In on this 
quick. Chris. Smith and John Larklns cre- 
ated this song, and they're proud of It. 

Vocal arrangement of the stunning 
•narcb you hear played everywhere. 
Jreat for all kinds of acts. Dancing, 
singing, dumb, etc., etc. 

A tripping little, skipping little 

*altz number. Fresh and delight- 
ful as a June bird. The best waltz 
song of the season. 

A popular ballad by two 
popular writers. Max S. 
Witt and Chas. Horwltz. 
The result moat be a hit. 

Stirring march song. 
One of the real feat- 
■ (ires of the Lew 

Oockstader Show. 



A bigger bit then 
■ ever. Laughs from 

start to finish. 

Beautiful ballad by the 
writer of that famous suc- 
cess, "Maybe." This one 
will outshine "Maybe." 

Song of mother 
and home. Pa- 
thetic, melodious, 
catchy.
