JOSEPH HOLLAND IS DEAF.
How Mr.. Holland Got Into s9The Mys-
terious Mr.. Bugle."

Probably not one in the large audi
ence that witnessed 1.-THE Mysterious
MT. Bugle'' at the Crawford theater
Saturday night realized that the big
man with the dark mustache and touch
of goatee, playing the part of Tom Pol
inger, was unable to hear a word that
was spoken by any of the other charac-
tiers; that to him the audience was as
silent as a collection of sphinxes; that
in a word, he is deaf as the proverbial
post.
But such is the fact. Mr.. Joseph Hol-
land has for the past six years been so
deaf that to carry on a conversation
with him one has to stretch the lungs
and talk with the mouth in direct and
close communication with his ear. 1t is
hereditary with him, as his father and
mother and grandfather and grand
mother and generations before that
have been as deaf as he is All his
brothers and sisters are deaf, and the
loss of the sense of hearing has. been
growing upon him since early childhood.
Now it is as total as it ever gets to be
with the man retaining any power to
hear at all.
Still if anyone in the audience Sat
urday night knew this, they knew it by
hearing or reading of it, and did not
gather it from any popularity of act
ing. For on the stage, Mr.. Holland is
as natural as it would be possible for a
man with the most acute hearing to be,
and has never been known to miss a
cue He knows every line in the piece,
and takes his cues partially by intuition
and partially from expressions. With
the exception of his brother, Edward
Holland, who is similarly afflicted, but
not to such a degree, he is the only deaf
actor on the American stage that has
risen to the rank of a star.
Mr.. Alfred Bradley, proprietor of
''The Mysterious Mr.. Bugle," who is a
brother of Madeline Lucette Ryley, the
author of the piece, tells an amusing
story of his sisters experience with Mr..
Holland at the rehearsal of the play.
When the farce was written, Mr.. Brad
lev suggested Mr.. Holland for the
leading role. but Mrs. Ryley would not
hear of it because of the actors deaf
ness.
Finally Mr.. Bradley persuaded her to
grant Holland a trial; the entire piece
was sent him and the day set for the
commencement of rehearsals.
After the first rehearsal, Mr.. Bradley,
anxious to hear the result, called on
his sister and asked:
''ZVeIl how about Ho11and?"
"Oh, possibly he'll do if we can't get
anyone eIse,' said Mrs. Ryley.
The second day Mr.. Bradley again
called on his sister and inquired;
How do you like Holland by this
time?''
somewhat encouraging reply of the
The third day Mr.. Bradley made an
other call. Flows Holland coming
on?'' he asked.
II only wish the entire cast was
deaf" was the somewhat startling an
swer of Mrs. Ryley.

THEOSOPHISTS DIVIDED.
Mrs. Tingley's Assumption of Infalli-
bility Splits the American
Societv.

Chicago, Feb 21.-The principle of
autocracy in the American Theosophi-
cal society has caused a permanent di-
vision in the organization. The sub
serV1ent way in which the majority
bowed down before the assumptions of
SUI supreme rem e. power, temporal and occult
ley, has driven the Hargrave element
out of the society.
After the faithful had placed her on
the BlaVatSky pedestal, Mrs. Tingley
issued a proclamation that she had re-
Gently organized the Universal Broth
erhood in accordance with the plans
OF me late w; Q Judge She quoted
from their writings to show that they
considered theosophy in a broader sense
than commonly presented; that they
We're devoted to the universally of the
brotherhood of man, a brotherhood that
would be helpful and protective in its
operation. The proclamation declared
that the time had now arrived to make
public the purpose of the dead leaders
and to establish the league as the form
OF government of the theosOphists. Mrs.
I1ngley has been made +'Outer head
oIiIclal mead OF the Esoter1c school,
ana leader in theOsophical thought"
with many other hOnOrS. She named E.
August NerSheimer for president. The
HargraVe-Spencer element organized
convention of their own today in the
Palmer House. They cling to the old
name and reject the universal broth
erhood" scheme. While asserting that
the theOSOphical society had no leader
they decline to express their ideas on
the inspired leadership question. They
will not even go so far as to openly
question the inspired position of Mrs
1lngley. Among the leaders who are
said to be arrayed on the Hargrave
side are Mrs. Ella NJ. Judge, wife Of the
predecessor of Mrs. TingIey as the head
of the Esoteric school.
H. S. Spencer, the leader of the anti
Tingley band, issued a manifesto today,
in which he said: I'VE are not the Sc
cessiOnists. The persons who voted to

ETY. of America still remain,

WAR MUST FOLLOW
IF the French Have Invaded
British African Territory
as Reported.

London, Feb. 21.-Great activity is
manifested by the colonial office. the
West African department and among
the high military officers who are going
out to the Lagos Hintedland.
The latter are inclined to discredit the
news which reached Akassa, Niger
coast protectorate yesterday to the eff
feet that two French expeditions are
advancing towards Sokoto, capital of
the sultanate of that name, which is
within the British sphere of influence,
but add that if the news should be
confirmed, it must be followed by a de-
The st. James Gazette commenting on
the subject says:
eff the invasion of Sokoto is directed
from Paris, it admits but of one inter
probation and the seriousness of the sit
uatiOn is increased when it is remem-
bered these invasions of British terri
tory must have been planned weeks ago
before the present ferment in Paris over
Dreyfus. Tt would appear that the
French cabinet, foreseeing the revela-
tions which should be caused by the
trial of NJ. Zola, had determined to
bring affairs in Africa to a crisis to Sc
cure a renewal of its popularity
1t is asserted on good authority that
the Royal Niger company has been in
structed after trying all peaceable
means, to compel the retirement of the
French from British territory by force.
The sultanate of SOkoto is a feudatOry
of the company and was recently placed
under British protection.
The situation is regarded as extreme
" grave, Great Britain's forces in the
prOtectOrate district number between
5000 and 5000 men under British Off
GERS in Lagos and the gold coast Hin
terland and at the three separate points
of British and French territorial dis
putes, Boria, Wac and Argungu.
The Daily Mail says it has received
confirmation of the news from Sokoto.
The Times, commenting editOrfally on
the news, says it cannot credit the re-
port and reprOved the 1evity of the
French press regarding a grave situa-
ton. The presence of a French force
at Argungu, the Times declares, would
be so fragrant a breach of any possible
construction of the Say-Burua agree
ment of 1890 (Anglo-French treaty at
Busah) that nothing but its immediate
withdrawal could avert the most de-
plOrable consequences"
Other papers publish similar articles
urging Lord Salisbury to intimate
plainly that Great Britain's limit of
''sQueezeability' had been reached.

Lie in State in Chicago.

New York, Feb. 21.-The funeral ser
vices over the remains of Miss Frances

WOman's Christian Temperance union,

The church was crowded, among the
attendants being many women from
neighporing states, representing the
state unions.
A great number of floral tributes
nave been received and these, together
with palms, were used as decorations in
the church. Such names as those OF
Helen Gould, Susan B. Anthony, Rev
anna Shaw and many OF the W: Z: =.
US prominent world representatives
were written on the cards attached to
the floral gifts. In pursuance of ca
blegram sent by Lady Henry Somerset
to Miss Katherine L. Stevenson, the
corresponding secretary of the national
organization at Chicago, a bunch OF
white roses was placed over the heart
of the dead temperance refOrmer-
Miss Wizards request that her fun
eraI service be simple was carried out.
Portions of the scripture which Miss
Willard loved most were read, her IA
vorite hymns were sung and the Meth
odist Episcopal funeral service was
read. Rev. NJ E. S. Triple, pastor of
st. James Methodist Episcopal church,
was the principal officiating clergyman.
He was assisted by Bishop John New
man and others.
Presidents of state organizations, of
which Miss Willard was the national
head, were the honorary paIIbearers.

WANTS TO FIGHT WALLACE
Old Soldier Resents His Story About
Lincoln and Mcclellan.

Lebanon. Ind. Feb. 21.-George E. Oaks
of INDIANAPOLIS has written a challenge to
General Lew Wallace to mortal combat
on the field of honor.
At the banquet here on Lincoln's birth
day, General Wallace, in speech, told
of a personal interview with Lincoln when
General Mcclellan had been forced back
by Lee to Harrison's Landing, on the
James river. Lincoln was sad, and Wal
lace inquired what was the matter. Lin
coin said: 4 must go to Harrison 5
Landing to tell Mcclellan not to surren-

Half an hour later Lincoln was in a
boat bound for HarriSons Landing This
is the first time I ever related this fact. "

New York, Feb. 21.-The Times says:
A committee selected by stockholders
