blithely singing some ragtime air.
The chain gang is made up of men
found guilty of petty offenses and SEN
fenced to few days labor by the mu-
nicipal magistrates. Usually the Of
Tense is drunkenness or disorderly
conduct. The men do not seem to
mind this form of punishment, though
the citizens are divided into two camps
those who approve of this cheap
method of getting the asphalt swept
and the cutters cleaned daily, and
those who do not approve of the spec
tacle afforded by tethered prisoners t
large, and who maintain that the pun
ishment is no deterrent.
The negro population living in Blood
town and the suburbs of Newport
News is large, saloons are not scarce,
rum is plentiful and disorderly
scenes are consequently frequent
The local jail is rather small. If the
prisoners were all kept there it would
be congested, so the chain gang idea
obtains in this otherwise beginning
of the new century city, whose rapid
advance has been one of the features
of the census of 1900.

HUNDREDS OF FARMS
Owned by William Scully, Greatest
of American Landlords.
Ills Largest Holdings Are in Central
Illinois and In Dates County, Mo.
How He Makes His Land
Pay Well.

! William Scuiiy owns a greater num-
ber of farms than any man in the
United States. Their aggregate area
is 100000 acres. They are worth S10,-
100000. They are located in central
Illinois, western Missouri and Kan
sas. They represent the accumula.
tion of so years of the life of their
owner.
He is the richest farmer in the rich
est agricultural section in the world.
His wealth the New York World es-
Inmates at $25,000,000.
William Scully came to this coun-
try shortly after the Mexican war for
the purpose of investing his money.
He chose to put it into farming lands.
At that time he was William Scully,
gentleman, of Ballecohey, ireland.
Now he is William Scully, American
citizen, owner of the John A. Logan
residence in Washington, and multi
millionaire.
Ever since he came to America he
has been either Lord or Viscount
Scully, although he never gave any
body reason to believe that he held
a title. He is not lord. Neither is
he viscount.
In 1897 the Illinois Legislature
modified the alien landowner law
This law necessitated Mr.. Scully's re-
moval to the United States and his
naturalization prior to 1908.
When the Scully agents went to
Bates county, Mo-, six years ago to
purchase farm land there, people be-
came alarmed lest Scully import an
undesirable tenantry. This criticism
of Mr.. Scully has covered a period OF
more than 40 years. Not one word OF

defense ever came from him. Criti-
cism seemed never to touch the rich
lrishman. His policy was silence.
Meanwhile the Scully acres contin-
ued TO yield great crops. Nobody
ever heard of sale of Scully land
except a farm purchased in Sanga-
mon county, ILL.,, by former Gov
Richard j. Oglesby. Nobody ever
heard of mortgage on Scully
farm.
At Butler, in Bates county, Mo-,
there are 1a5 Scully tenants, and they
lease their lands for cash, paying
from $l.25 to So an acre, and make
their own improvements.
The Scully agents are particular
about leases. The farmer who applies
for one of them must be practica
farmer. His stock must look well
fed. His machinery must show good
care. lie must have good reputa-
tion, be temperate and industrious
and pay his debts. He must not quar-.
rel with his neighbors.
Three years ago Mr.. Scully in
creased his holdings in Bates county
Mo-, to $4,000 acres, all purchased in
cash at from S27 to $35 an acre. None
of this land is encumbered. William
Sculiy has visited Bates county sew
eral times. He has inspected his
farms and carried away samples of
their soil in little paper sacks, lead
ing his tenants there to believe he
must have at his home samples OF
every piece of the land he owns.
A year ago the people of Bates
county voted on a proposition to
build a new courthouse at Butler. Mr.
Scully's agent wrote to him and in
qnired to know what he would adj
wise his tenants to do. Mr.. Scully an
swered that they ought 80 vote for it
The proposition carried.
This richest of American farmers is
a modest man of simple tastes. He
dresses simply in dark clothes, with
an old-fashioned black bow tie. He
does not drink or use tobacco. lie is
a member of the Episcopal church
He is slightly bald.
Mr.. Scnlly spent several summers
in Lincoln, ILL.,, on one occasion bring.
ing his family. One of his sons mar.
ried a Lincoln girl. The family Lived
very simply and became popular. Mr.
Scully devoted his whole time to his
lands and his books. He was never
known to come to Lincoln or to de.
part from there without having with
him an armful of books, principally
devoted to agriculture.
Mr.. Scully permits no detail Of his
business to escape him. lie even sees
THAT new generation of scientific
farmers viii be on hand to take his
place and the places of the men who
work with him. He puts young mel
at work on the farms and then sends
them to college at his own expense.

MUSIC AND DRAMA
DOCKsTADER's.

The bill announced at Dockstader's
Cor the coming week will present an ex.
cellent array Of good, refined vaudeville.
James Morton. generally known as tle
inventor OF the ever popular rag time
will head the list. Morton is undoubted.
~ the most clever monologuist in tile
business and occupies high place
among the vaudeville entertainers in this
country. 1t was by the merest chance
that Manager Dockstader succeeded in
getting him here for the coming week.
Oscar ST, som Esther Wallace & Co., in a
repertoire of charming comedies, will
prove another feature Of the bill. All Of
these people have had long experience
i'm the comedy field and are excellent en-
iertniners.
Ruth Royal and Charles MacFayden
in n new farce OF their own entitled "At
Auction" offers something that is in
keeping with the popular fancy. 1t is Oh
the line of the present fad, "the rum.
mage sale," and will doubtless be par.
ticularly appreciated in Wilmington at
this time. Little and Priizkow, coined.
ians and singers, who rank with the
best; Miss Lillian Tyce, a clever Irish
comedenne; Wilbur Amns, the tramp
ilggler; Frank and Ida Williams, black
lace comedy team, and the character
sketch artists, Ford and Dot West, con-
tribute to the weeks program. The last
named act is sparkii & with bright and
lively comedy, and is a feature OF any
bill, no matter how big it may be. The
attendance at Dockstader's the past few
weeks has surprised even Manager Dock.
stader himself, for as rne April brings
a material falling off in the general at
tendance at the theatres. Probably not
in recent years has the attendance at
Dockstader's been go good in April as a.
the present time. The house will con-
tinue to ffer as usual the best attractions
that can be secured.
