why the Hoosier Poet Has q weakness
for the Instrument
II has been noticed that al all the
entertainments given by James Whit
comb Riley there is always a violin
solo on the program. There Is never
an exception to the rule. His manager
says that the custom is followed out
Of difference to Riley, although It is
not known that he ever requested such
favor. There is a story back OF that.
1t appears that Rlley's ambition early
in life was to be a violinist. He is quot
ed as saying that an accident spoiled
a mighty fine fiddler to make a second
rate poet, but then people may not
agree with him on that score. When
he was a young man he exercised a fid-
die a good deal 1t is said that when
he began practicing out on the front
porch the neighbors went in and closed
the doors and windows. no matter how
hot It might be, but that may be a
slander. At any rate, Riley wanted to
be a violinist. and was getting greatly
wrapped up In his studies when he met
with an accident which caused the loss
Of his left thumb. This made it inn
possible for him to pursue his violin
practice, and the songs that were
struggling for utterance through the
medium Of the violin found escape
through verse, and the world is better
on on account Of the accident Riley's
managers know Of his weakness FOR
the fiddle. and that is the reason there
is always a violin solo In the entertain
ment program.-Chicago News.
