Having acquired Thespian ability
after the manner of pugilists-that is,
by defeating everybody who has had
he temerity to oppose him--James
Ieffries. the worlds champion fighter,
will now proceed to do things to the
drama. Billy Brady, the guide, philo-
sopher and friend of Jeffries, has had
play written for him bearing the
title, "A Man From the West" and
next season the big scrapper will show
lust what likely chap the man from
The West" is at foiling villains with a
'hilly smile and lifting the mortgage
oi the old home. Jeffries is not with
out histrionic experience. He was
featured" in Around New York in
Eighty Minutes" along with Jim Cor
bett and Tom Sharkey, two other not
ed disciples OF the manly art and the
sock and buskin. Therefore 1t is ex-
pected that he will enter upon his
new role with the forceful vigor OF
Mcdowell and the easy JUNCTION of
Jefferson.
The accompanying cut shows how
Jeff will look in bringing wrongdoers
to book and winning maidens on the
stage. He will wear a rakish SOM
brero. even as men from the west do
on the stage, a low rolling collar,
showing the base OF his strong
throat" and confident smile. begot-
ten of knowledge that he can lick
anybody living. 1t is reckoned that
he will maize Eric Hope, the Cherry
Sisters, and other contemporaries look
like understudies in a troupe of barn
stormers-that his transition from the
roped arena to the footlights will be
as easy and successful as shot rolling
off shovel.

appeared at the Empire in "The Con-
querors." Mrs. Wilmerding was to
have appeared last season in 1.-THE
