CHICAGO. Oct. Especial )-There Is
an old proverb relative to the constant
turning up of a bad penny that comes to
The mind with startling distinctiyeness
when jim Corbett's latest bulletin to a
much ill-used press is taken into consid-
grafton. The gentleman par excellence
Of all pugilists has warped his distorted
mind into a new channel Of thought, and
announced his intention Of returning TO
active service IN the ring.
This is the same Corbett who, a few
lays ago, declared that he was through
with pugilism and it's votaries forever.
In the glamor of the limelight, the con-
genial society of the green room he
vowed he would seek the recognition of
his proves for which his soul hungered
and which the wiser followers of the
game of fsticuffs unanimously refused
to accord him. That he did not keep his
WORD caused no surprise among those
who have watched the spasmodic wrig
glings OF this most hysterical of heavy
weights ia his endeavorS to keep within
the focus of the public camera Nobody
expected that he would retire, nobody
dared TO hope that such a goodly streak
OF luck would ever brighten the clouds
which at present enshroud the pugilistic
situation In the effete East.
troubles and the Kid Mccoy fiasco cling
ing to his besmirched garments, James
J. will continue to issue challenges and
abuse his contemporaries in the game
pugilistic for many a weary day to come,
Corbett has, however, reached the point
where his silly vaporings have ceased to
attract the serious attention OF fight
critics. Pugslistically. he IS dead re
Is not even passing. for he has already
passed. He Is the late Mr. Corbett But
like some unquiet ghost that refuses 10
be laid by book Or bell he still intrudes
his unwelcome presence into the merry
company of live and active pugs, and
endeavors to persuade them and himself
that he is still prominent exponent of
the profession OF which he has been so
long a doubtful ornament.
Perhaps, after all. the best way to
take Gentleman" Jim is as joke, a
rather feeble joke to be sure, total
unnecessary, superannuated joke, joke
of nnaudlin cast and exaggerated dfHaen-
sions, but none the less a joke pure and
simple. 1t is at all events the most
merciful view To take of James and his
erotic love Of notoriety. The paretic
hunlor of the widely advertised Corbett
joke IS of nature calculated to awake
disgust rather than merriment among its
unhappy victims. Although joke, how
ever, it should be treated as one. Let
the public at large cease to take Cor
bett seriously and the all-healing hand
of Time may gradually push him IN
oblivion. 1t has often been said of some
worthy descendant. I'VE shall never
look upon his like again. That the same
remark may be true of the ex-champion

cellent form. Matthews certainly has not
improved. If anything, he has retro
graded. Moreover he is handicapped by
the memory of the thrashing he received
from Ferns when they last exchanged
counter hits, and viii hardly face his
conqueror with as much confidence as he
possessed on a former occasion. If the

though he should successfully resist any
attempt that Matthews is capable of
making to deprive him of his well won
laurels.
Joe Walcott's manager is still making
vain attempts to match his dusky bread

weights. The big fellows are given to
side-stepping adroitly when the chunky
Barbados black appears on the scene
and IN the light of past happenings can

Jim Jeffords, of California. A Hartford

Walcott is quite good enough to crush

the worst breaks that California has

He is slow and clumsy, and although
possessed of a giant frame and great
strength is practically useless as a pu-

There is that much distinction between

Democrats Hold Balance of Power
Between GrOut and Dillingham;

MONTPELIER. VT, Oct. 16.--Iu the
Voi mOut Legislature this afternoon vote
was taken in the election of u successor
to Jonathan Rcss, who is filling out the
term of the late Justin $. Morrill,. in the
United States Senate. There are four Re
publican aspirants for the position Repre-
sentative w. w. Grout. cx-Gov. W. P. Dill
bingham. C. A. Prouty. and the present
incumbent. Jonathan Ross. The Demo-
cratic candidate was Seneca Hazleton, OF
burlington, exMinistcr to Venezuela IN
der the last Cleveland Administration.
The vote in the Senate today stood {:
Dillingham;, IS; Grout, 8; Prouty, 3; Ross,
/. In the House the vote was: Dilling-
ham. IS; Grout, II; Hazleion. 40; Prouty.
IA: Ross II. giving Dillingham; lead of
twenty-one on joint ballot. General Grout
processes to believe that this lead will be
overcome tomorrow by accessions to his
ranks from Dillingham;. while Prouty
makes the same claim for himself.
The Democratic candidate polled the en-
tire party strength. and at a caucus tonight
IL was decided to vote solid for him tomor-
row in joint session. All parties now con-
cede that the Democrats hold the key to
the situation, both Grout and Dillingham;
claiming enough from their ranks to elect
whenever the break from Hazleton comes.

Captain Shields Is now in Manila, where

sible for the average star nowadays to
give satisfactory performance without
the support OF wcll-drilled company
thoroughly familiar not orly with the play.
but with the temperament and require
ments of the chief actor. In these times
the play is often built around some par
ticular actor. and ali the people in the
company selected with view to enhanc-
ing the brilliancy Of the star. This may
not be very good for the subordinate play
ers. but 1t frequently makes very beau-
tiful production. harmonious. spirited, and
artistic In every detail The present sys-
tenn also enables, the company 10 present,
on occasion, several plays in one week. at
least part of them new and peculiarly
/! suited to the abilities of the people in the
cast. This was, of course, impossible I'M
der the old regime.
But there are many good points about
the stock company. and Washington's ex-
perience for the past decade proved that
in summer such company can do ex-
ceedingly good work in light comedy and
melodrama. The advantages of the plan,
from the actors point of view, are great.
and would be greater could the company
be made a permanent attraction. The
players are enabled to remain in one town
during the season when the summer COM
pany is playing. thus avoiding the con-
slant travelling which is one OF the great
drawbacks of the theatrical profession.
They become thoroughly acquainted with
one another's abilities. and make friends
from week to week with each other and
with their public. Each has n faifer
chance for success than in most travelling
companies, for as the bill changes some
| actor hitherto unimportant may make
| hit in minor part and take long step
| on the road to success.
1t is needless to say that a stock COM
pany for winter productions would have
to be either an exceedingly good one. or
confined to playing light comedy and
| melodrama. The average company of this
kind would be unable to attempt Shakes
| peare or any other classic plays. But It
| could furnish good. clean, wholesome fun
| in the form Of light comedy or farce,
anc it would be a good antidote to
| the burlesques with which the country is
flooded. In one or two large American
cities the stock company plan has been
| tried with success, along these lines, 1t
| is to be hoped that the experiment may
DO successfully made in others.
