in the noisy audience. He considered
that the play patron, If he was pleased
with the entertainment, should take
the trouble and consider it duty to
demonstrate his pleasure.
In this connection he used frequently
to tell of one occasion when he was
playing "Dundreary" in a small town
where the manager of the theater had
recently been to New York. He had
visited the Madison Square Theater, at
that time under semi-religious manage
ment. where dim light prevailed in the
auditorium and loud applause was
deemed decidedly indecorous. The
manager returned to his town and gave
a quiet Tip" on what was "the real
thing in New York theater manners.
Well. Sothern and his company played
the first act without evolSing a laugh
or a hand" When the curtain fell
he listened for the customary call. but
there was only silence--awful silence.
Then before the second act, he gathered
his company and said: 1--WE must pitch
in for all we are worth in this act"

Newspaper Character Counts.


Whether the revenue of a newspaper
springs directly from advertising or
directly from circulation, it is in real
ity upon it's hold on it's readers that
it's success depends; it's advertising
value is strictly contingent upon it's
newspaper value. 1t happens, fortu-
nateiy for the possibilities of journal
ism, that there is a well-grounded be-
lief on the part of many newspaper
owners that the conducting of a news
paper by men of convictions, in ac-
cordance with those convictions, is one
of the ways-and that the most solid
of all-for establishing 1t upon a sound
commercial basis. The necessity of
public support, of advertising support,
is, of course, acknowledged, but that
is not taken care of from day to day,
or even from year to year; once for
all, the fortune of the paper is staked
upon the principle that the people will
support a paper that is honest and fair
and brave. Some people will dislike il
to-day and others tomorrow, but ii
will command respect all the time and
the confidence of the community in it's
sincerity will be it's strongest asset.
This principle once acknowledged, the
rest is plain sailing; the voyage may
often be rough, and sometimes it may
be disastrous; but it is never aimless
and never delusive. The men who
conduct the paper knew well enough
that il would have to be discontinued
If pecuniary support from the public
failed; but they need no more be con-
scious of this consideration in their
work than the preacher need think
about his salary in determining his
theology or his ethics, or the physician
worry over his fee when dealing with
the problems of life and death that
daily confront him.

TOE DANCER WILL GET
A REAL LIVE COUNT

Marion Winchester, who on the tips
of her toes pirouetted her way into
some Broadway theatrical prominence,
is soon to be a real Countess.
That is, unless her present matri-
monial schedule goes all awry. Accord
ing to plans made known in America
through the medium of letters just re-
ceived from Paris. Miss winchester,
before the present moon has died away,
will become Countess D'Orenty, wife
of Comte Robert Arthur D'Orenty, a
Belgian nobleman who traces his line
age back for centuries in French his
tory and who spends the greater por-
ton of his time upon the Partisan
boulevards.
Miss Winchester. is playing at La
Scala Theater, Paris, where her toe
dancing is said to have made some
thing of a sensation. Comte Robert
first met her last fall, during an en-
gagement at the Casino de Paris.
She went abroad about six months
ago to fill music hall engagements.
and since that time has appeared in
London. Dusseldorf and Berlin, as
well as in Paris.

important engagements. He has CIV
en- recitals in Carnegie and Steinway
halls before enthusiastic audiences,
and he returned to Savannah having
made a name for himself among the
best musicians of New York. The
orchestra will be conducted by Mr.. Jo-
seph Coccia, who has on numerous oc-
casions conducted orchestras in some
of the cities in Europe. Rehearsals
are now in progress for Rubinstein
concerts which Mr.. Rebarer will give
with the orchestra, and which bids fair
to be one of the most attractive num-
bers of the programme.
Mr.. John S. Banks, local manager
of Phillips & Crew, has offered to the
Music Club his new piano parlors at
State and Bull streets for the weekly
rehearsals of the chorus, and COM
mencing on next Thursday night the
chorus will hereafter meet there. I'm
portant chorus work is now under
preparation, and it is especially de-
sirable that every member be pres
ent at all of the rehearsals. The place
for rehearsals is now a central and
convenient one, and there will be no
reason why every member of the
chorus should not be in regular attend
ance.
Report comes from New York that
Mckenzie Gordon is in i'll health. One
week he is able to sing in splendid
voice, whilst the next he goes all to
pieces. The consequence is there il
no telling from one day to another
what the result of his work will be-
The many people here who remember
Mckenzie Gordon when he lived here
as George Mckenzie will regret to
hear of this. While living here, OF
one occasion he made the remark that
he was determined to make name for
himself in the musical world, and knew
that he had the voice to do it, and
that some day he would be singing for
the millionaires. This prediction of his
future career certainly came true, as
1t was a millionaire who first heard
him sing in Chicago a few months after
he left Savannah, and who took him
to New York, where he was given a
position in the choir of ST. Bartholo-
news, and it has been chiefly at the
entertainments of the millionaires in
New York that he has sung. His ven
ture on the operate stage last season
in "The Silver Slipper" was a fail
ure, but as a concert singer and chief
ly as ballad singer he ranks high i'll
the profession.
Marie Tempest, who ten years ago
created such a sensation in New York
during the two seasons that she sung
in comic opera there, when she was
heralded, and lauded as 1.-The Swedish
nightingale" has abandoned the stage
of music and has gone into comedy.
She recently made her first appear
ance in straight comedy at the New
National Theater in Washington. in
THE Marriage of Kitty" and won a
distinct success and much applause.
She ought to make a success in COM
edy, as in the eight operas in which
she appeared she was one of the most
chic, winsome, attractive opera sing
ers in this country at that time.

COMING PLAYS

"A Friend Of the Family" under the
management of w. E. German, will
be the attraction in Savannah on Feb.
26 and 27. Manager German claims that
his experience has been that larger
audiences greet the second perform
ance. He takes this as evidence of the
merit of the play.
Haverly's Mastodon Minstrels is
booked for Savannah. The music and
singing in the first part is said to
have been especially adapted to min
strelsy. Haverly's aggregation has
been seen in Savannah before.
Richard Golden, the merry monarch
in king Dodo," this season, is per-
haps best known as the star for many
years of "Old Jed Prouty," but it IS
doubtful If in his long career he has
ever been seen to better advantage
than as the decrepit old King in the
tuneful Pixley and Luders opera to be
seen here shortly.
Kingsbury & Welty's comedians in
Isidore Witmark's musical comedy,
1.-The Chaperons," are headed this way.
This will be the first Southern tour
of this musical play. The cast in
cludes John G.. Sparks, Mabel Hite,
Harry Ladell May Boley, Thos. Whit

Bettina Girard has come to life again.
The fair actress. who ten or twelve
years ago promised to become one of
the most popular stars of the stage,
and had the magnetism beauty and
art to do so, has been on and off time
and again by reason of her idea of
what constitutes the pleasures of life.
Several times it has been printed that
poor Bettina Girard would never act
again. But she has always come to
the fore again with the prospect of re-
gaining her lost ground. Now it is
announced that she is going into vau-
deville with Melbourne Mcdowell in
a vaudeville version of La Tosca."
Since she gave up the stellar role in
"Old Kentucky" she has principally
been identified with musical affairs,
but she has dramatic ability, and may
be she will really play La Tosca."
