WHY PLAYS GRIP"
Thomas Jefferson Tells How He Was
Forced Into the Part.

Twenty years ago a young man ma
nipulated kerosene lamps for his father
in the production of the dark scene
of rip Van Winkle,' at the old To-
peka skating rink, now the tumble
down livery stable at the corner of
Seventh and Van Buren, streets. Today
the same young man returned to To-
peka, not so young by the specified
number of years, and bearing the same
relation to the same piece that his
father bore 20 years ago
He is Thomas Jefferson, the eldest of
the sons of Joseph jefferson, the vet
eran comedian. He is appearing as
RIP Van Wrinkle" for the first time in
Topeka this afternoon, and viii be seen
again in the part tonight.
Mr.. jefferson has visited this city
twice since the time of his first visit
once. five years later, when his father,
supported by Mrs. John Drew, present.
I'd The Rivals" and once with his own
production of Shadows of Great
City" But the initial trip to Topeka
is the one that has remained prOmi-
nently in the memory of the comedian 5
son. and he purpOsely brought a cam
era with him to this city today to Sc
cure a souvenir snap shot of the old
rink
1T was a great experience we had
here that night" said Mr. Jefferson
today. 4 was managing fathers COM
pany at the time, and the rink was
the only building of theatrical proper
tions, as I believe the opera house had
recently burned. 1t was raining in tor
rents and when we reached the house
in the evening we found that the roof
had sprunk several leaks. That WASH t
all We discovered that there were no
gas fOOtlights and that the illumina-
ton consisted of kerosene lamps exclu-
sively Father declared that the light
changes couldn't be made. but I vol
unteered to engineer the lamps. I be-
Iieve half the men in the audience
brought lanterns with them, and distri-
buted them at convenient locations
about the floors. I know in my endeav-
ors to get the several fOOtIight lamps
dimmed, I kicked over one of the liant
ems and it came within an ace of re-
sulting in an explosion Several men
made a wild scramble to recover the
lantern and women in that particular
locality screamed. Father and his peo-
pie got through with the performance
the best they could, but I remember
he said he wouldn't take a thousand
dollars and go through with 1t again
and go through with it again.
Mr. Jefferson was unable to secure a
photograph OF the old skating rink to-
day because of the weather conditions,
but hopes to secure a snap shot before
he leaves Monday morning.
Up to Thanksgiving afternoon OF last
year Mr.. Jefferson had never been on
the stage in a professional capacity
His association with his father was as
manager of the company. When the
comedian was taken i'll last season,

miles out of New York City. His father

REMARKABLY FUNNY.

The following appeared in today's
Capital:
With Judge Horton, Pat COney and
the Topeka Capital attacking on one
side, and the Pop editors in solid col
umn, armed with rapid fire stink pots
moving up on the other side, II Cy Lee
land does not throw up his hands ana
surrender, we shall conclude that ne
does not know enough to get under
cOver-HOltOn Recorder.
It would be a joke if Cy-, before he
surrenders, ambushes the outfit and cap
lures the ten thousand dollars these re-
formers raised to corrupt the voters
and debauch the politics of the state
Seneca Tribune.
We hope 1t will alleviate the pain Of
the smart alecks like the above to
know that the $4,000 story has not one
iOta of truth in it. The fake was a paid
local inserted in the Evening Journal of
this city by the Leland gang.
The State Journal printed the facts
about the organization, but it did not
say that the new combination had $40
600. It simply said that the promoters
claimed to have that amount pledged
The particular promoter who made this
statement, was General J. K. Hudson
The combination managers must have
recently experienced a change of heart
for both General Hudson and Judge
Horton admitted in interviews in the
Kansas City Journal the day following
the publication of the story in the State
Journal that the organization was a
fact. The item was not a paid local"
It did not emanate from any member
of the Leland gang 1t was an ex-
cellent piece of news and the State
Journal is here to publish the news.
