JEFFERSON STILL YOUTHFUL
Almost Half Century Since He First
Played Rip Van Wrinkle"

Like the one-hoss shay, Joe Jefferson
bids fair to run on forever, says the
Pittsburg Post. Three years more and
it will be half century since he first
introduced rip to US, and yet if any
thing he is of more youthful mien than
in the last two decades. Unlike the
festive foreigners he announces no fare
well tours, but frankly makes known
his intention to go on playing as loEE
a the American public wants him.
When it tires. then he will retire. But
witnessing the famous old comedians
reception at Carnegie institute last
week, when he received more applause
than even Grover Cleveland, and the
tremendous rush to see him during the
latter part of the week, one knows that
so long as there is strength to play in
Mr.. Jefferson, his public will permit,
nay, demand that he do so. When the
time comes for him to cross the grea-
divide then Rip passes also from the
stage. In current magazine last week
a writer said that Mr.. Jefferson's rip
has in it nothing of greatnes that it
will be forgotten soon after it ceases to
be. No one who has seen it can believe
that, surely. 1t has been Mr.. JeffersOn's
exclusive creation for a longer period
than any other role was ever playAd by
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1901-11-16

one man, perhaps, and in this way the
man and role have become so identified
that you cannot think of one without
remembering the other. Assuredly Mr..
Jeferson's name will occupy a high and
inperisna BILE position in the gallery OF
fame. Perhaps as Bob Acres he show
ed more plainly how youthful he still is
in mind and body, but neither of the
two roles. perhaps. is so perfect a bit
OF artistic work as his Caleb Plummer,
once seen always remembered.
The raising of prices to 50 a seat has
frequently been a subject of criticism
here, but the proof of the pudding is in
the audiences, as it were. So long as
Mr. Jefferson can pack his house as he
did during the latter part of the week,
at those prices, he has the justification
for doing so. He does not carry first
class company and his scenery will new
er deserve the adjective gorgeous but
he himself is worth the price.

ONE OF FIELDS JOKES.

his privilege to know in the past and
among them the late Eugene Field. 1t

connected with the Chicago Evening
News, and this story serves to show his

some of his beautiful poems, that no

home circle to indite-
1T was the habit at Christmas time
for the proprietor of the paper to give
each employe turkey, and Field,
rather amused at the style OF the git,
which reached printers devil and editor
alike, facetiously wrote few days be-

to begin the new year with raiment be
fitting his station as political, church
and police editor of so great a daily as

Kind and also in spirit, that his re-
quest would be granted. and on Christ
mas eve a box arrived with the suit,
which the recipients of the turkeys re-
quested him to open.
1t contained, much to Fields chagrin, a
striped suit borrowed from the warden of
Joliet prison, and it was the cause of
much good natured bantering for many
months after. Field hung it up in his
sanctum, and one day a country editor
visiting the office asked to see Mr.. Field

but that he was a trusty lent by the war
den of Joliet to Mr. Field: that his crime
had been murder in the first degree, but
committed to Imprisonment for life
through influence. The editor from the
country cut his visit short and went home
