with Miss Ida c. Ward as business
manager and treasurer.
Our people have long recognized the
talent and ability of the Misses Ward
as actresses and playwriters, and they
can congratulate themselves that
the Queen City of the Delta will be
well represented by these queens of
stage. The plays of this company are
all written by Miss Ida Ward, and are
a dramatization of Charles Dickens
A Message from the Sea; The Ranch
man; romantic comedy drama, Pat
rick Henry. the Hero of '76; Desper-
ate Chances; Not Such a Fool as He
Looks; and comedy entitled Chuckles.
Mr.. Frank DeLeonneeds no introduce
tion to our readers. Two seasons ago
he was with the Pearson Stock Com
pany, company of high reputation in
the East, and with the Morton-Kress
Company he made his first appearance
TO Greenville audiences, making one
OF the strongest hits of the season
several weeks ago, by his acting.
Young, talented and ambitious, he will
make for himself and the DeLeon's
Comedians a WIDE reputation. Besides
the support the Carlton Sisters, sing
ers and dancers, have been engaged.
All the actors are expected the first
of next week when rehersal work will
commence in earnest. The company
show here four nights, commencing
November Goth, and one matinee. The
opera house manager should make
every concession possible to aid the
company, and there is no doubt that he
will, and the people will see to it
hat each house is packed.

Private John Allen.

The inlmltable Chas. b. Hanf0rd II
"Private John Allen" will be the mex
attraction for the play lovers. Mr.
Hanford has wide reputation as al
actor in Shakespearean roles, and the
success attending him in "Priyatc
John Allen" is source of extreme
pleasure 70 his many admirers.
The method pursued by Arthur Let
who wrote "Private John Allen" fol
Charles B. Hanford is peculiar one
He does not sit down to produce 8
single work and let it develop scene py
scene. He keeps constant lookout
for dramatic situations and notes down
his inspirations as tney occur. He
then selects his locale aud character
types and proceeds to choose from the
material he has stored such as will
adapt itself to the atmosphere OF his
prospective work. Very frequently, in
bringing together his incidents, he
discovers some combination of events
more striking than anything ne has
previously conceived, and he often dis
cards nearly all of what was originally
to stand as the plot. But the dramatic
situation is the first consideration in
ibis work.
Gov. Longino and Hon. Pat Henry
Next Thursday night, October 25th,
through the efforts of the Bryan

these two brilliant stars in:the constel

mere announcement that these gen.

The Christian.
It is interesting to note the success
which has attended the dramatizatlo1
of Hall Gaines popular story, 1.-THE

success has been phenomenal. In the
first two seasons it has earned nearly a
million dollars. During a five weeks

in the city of Chicago, amounted
TO exactly $62, ,l23.75, breaking
the records of all previous successes.
"The Christian" is now in its third

has been rightly termed the greatest
theatrical snccess of the closing century.

HOW TO WIN SUCCESS AS A POET.

Seriously. l doubt very much if many
posts make money enough to keep the
wolf from the door. The trouble is that
they do not try to give the public what
it wants. If a poet seeks success, the
kind of success that will bring him
money, and the kind of success that Is
going to live after him, too, he must
find out what the people want and then
give it to them. The public will not
buy what it doesn't want. Snd the Ner-
dict of the general public is always the
true one. There is nothing SO slight, so
trivial, that ii may not be told in Il way
that Will appeal to mems he2Ets If YOU
tell it in the right way. Short. simple
words, clear language. good English,
that is all you need to clothe your
thought if the thoughts carry a message
to anyone It's all nonsense to try ana
write or paint or carve statues for the
little circle of critics or for the enjoy
ment of the few admrng friends and
scholars that gather around.
Talk to the world. Paint 10 the world
Sing to the world. That's why God
gave man his gifts. if he has any. in
order that he may reach the most peo-
pie A man carveS a beautiful statue
out of marble. It's the child of his
genius. he loves it. he doesn't want to
part with il. But it tells a story that
appeals to the human heart, it wants
that statue. and then the human heart
goes down in its breechas. to
speak. and brings out its pockethook
and clips off a few coupons. and the
statue is paced where it will delight
thousands of people with its beauty. in
stead of being hidden away in the art
lists studio. But if it hadn't had some
thing in it that touched the heart the
public would have none of it.
Find out the public pulse, learn what
the people want then give it to them
if YOU can. But don't expect to grow
up into power and a leader in the lit
erary world all of a sudden. Take plen-
ty of time to do it, Give poet a
chance to grow and perfect himself.
What great merchant is there now but
| whose business grew from small begin
| nings. In law, in trade, in everything.
we expect to spend time and strength
! and work before We can accompllShh
anything. but a literary man expects to
get his poetry into the leading maga-
zines the first time he writes.
I Genius ought to work under control.
| It's never going to do any good to let
it spout out, full of fever, and run riot
oevr everything. l tell you that genius
needs a qua a-dian as much as the great
| est imbsc.e that ever lived. Master
your talents. don't let them master you.
Get tn ham under firm contro., direct
them in the best way. If you don't. II
| a mans genius runs away with him,
people are going to sneer behind their
hands. He must put muZZe on hlm-
self.
It's not easy to define genius. and |
think it's overdrawn After ALL the
most we writer's do is to observe. to
choose the best themes, to tell the story
