MISS MARLowEs VIEWS.

Julia Marlowe's latest remarks upon
the causes making for success upon the
stage are interesting because they in
clude a reference to her failure in
Fools of Nature" and not because
they offer anything new upon a rather
trite subject Recently she spoke of
the force of personality.
First of all, the American public de-
mands personality" she said. Give it
this, and it will often be content with
a poor play. But give it a good play
and no personality, and it will have
neither.
In one place the playwright may in
jure the actor, in the other the actor
may hurt the author. 1 frankly con-
fess that my failure in Fools of Ma
ture' probably injured Mr.. Esmond's
reputation in this country as a play
wright. 1 believe 1 may say have
been successful, and for a successful
actress to fail in play doesn't do the
author any good, to say the least
81 believed, and still believe, Fools of
Nature to be a good play. The trou-
BILE was it didn't bring out my per-
sonality. 1 should have recognized this
at first. Then 1 should not have done
Mr.. Esmond an injustice. Under no

Cant Deliver the Goods

when a player tells you that he can
put the ball where he pleases,' says
Beaumont. "he is insinuating that you
are weakminded and woefully gullible.
Don't take any stock in such twaddIe.
When it comes to delivering the goods
1 have noticed that they are generally
short of stock.
True" continues the handsome CIar-
ence. "a batsman sometimes is success
full in attempting to send a ball to a
certain spot. In the majority of cases,
however. the hit is pure luck. Even if
man knew the sort of curve the pitcher
was using and the exact speed of his de-
livery he could not tell on just what part
of the bat and at what angle to his po-
sition in the batting box the ball would
strike All these things are absolutely
necessary for a man to know if he de-
sires to become a bona fide place hitter.
When the variations possible for a
pitcher to put into a ball are consid-
cred the place hitter becomes a myth.

taking another stroke. Naturally you
start on the recover at the moment the
oars are brought up out of the water
1.-THE seat should at all times slide
with the body. Should you raise your
body too much on the catch, which
some people term the dip, you will be
very apt to slip the slide, a fault COM
mon to improperly trained watermen-
Another fault in manipulating the
slide is kicking or shooting the slide.
This means to kick out with the legs
too soon at the beginning of a stroke.
In this case, instead of being well
crowded up to the stretcher, with the
knees bent almost to the limit, your
body is part way back on its slide to-
ward the bow with the knees half

you start to recover. The recover is,
of course, the act of proceeding from
the finish of stroke to the position for
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1904-07-21

The first stroke in a race is always
the most difficult for a crew to execute
with the desired effect. At the begin
ming of a race members of a crew ar
range themselves for a stroke of modf
fed length compared to that used when
in full swing. The sliding seats are
brought we'll down toward the stretch
ers, and the oars are swung back to-
ward the bow, with the blades almost
entirely submerged. AS the starting
signal is given the first stroke is made
from this position. This half or three
quarter power stroke is taken at the
start so that the shell will gather mo-
mentum more or less gradually. If a
stroke of full strength were to be taken
the shell would be Unbalanced to
great extent by the violence of the
lunge. Moreover, the men are enabled
to keep better time as a result of the
modified starting stroke. They should
not be unsettled by it in the least if
trained properly.

Time.

1.-THE question of time is of never
ceasing Importance. Unless the men
learn to row as though they were con-
trolled by clockwork they will never
make good records. They should follow
the cockswain's count faithfully and
take pride in maintaining regularity
in their stroke.
"Cockswains generally aid their
crews by calling directions to the men
at the different parts of their strokes,
and the cries of Catch, away; catch,
away are familiar sounds to followers
of aquatics. The cockswain also de-
cides as to the rapidity of the strokes,
ETC., at different stages of a race.

would say. Now Beaumont comes along
with his little Ratchet and cuts down

choicest blossoms were wont to sprout.

LoRIMER's BALLET.

The new ballet which Wright Lori
mer has in preparation for the palace
scene in the third act of 1.-THE Shepherd
King" promises to be a triumph of ORR
entail magnif1cence. Four noted mas
tiers of the ballet have been engaged
to collaborate in arranging this ORR
entail dance, which will be put into re-
hearsal as soon as Mr.. Lorimer returns
from Switzerland.

Slicing.

ITO slice an oar means to dip it too
deep into the water. The evils of the
practice can readily be seen. The
stroke is necessarily made slower and
also weaker in effect. A mans strength,
too, is needlessly weakened by repeti-
ton. Slicing sometimes disturbs a
boats balance. To avoid slicing do not
raise the hands too high at the catch
or during the pull through to the fin

no matter how good, which I felt did
not suit me. An actor should be as
careful about being fair to an author
as he is about being fair to himself.

The Nearest Approach.

1.-THE nearest approach to place hit
ting is the sending of the ball into Ell
Their right or left field-that is. in the
general direction Of the course an ac-
tual place hit would take. Most expe-
rienced batters can send a nia jority of
their hits into right field or into left
field. as they desire. Still the slightest
miscalculation will send the ball into
the hands of one of the basemen, the
pitcher or the shortstop.
by meeting the ball in front of the
plate it will usually go into left field.
BY hitting it after it passes the plate it
generally goes to the right of second
base. Working the same hypothesis,
a ball met squarely by the bat as it
crosses the middle of the plate will go
close to second base-theoretically, di-
rectly over the middle of the sack
Decline of Pugilism and "Pro" Rowing.
1 had long talk with an old time
sporting writer a few days ago who
was bemoaning the absence of real
heavyweight championship prizehghts
and of great professional oarsmen, etc.
Think of it," he said. The present
heavyweight champion makes a match
with a miner that has only fought three
inferior men and expects to draw
paying crowd with that sort of attrac-
ton. In the old days Jack Munroe
would have been given the merry ha ha
if, with his short record, he had sought
bout with John L. Sullivan, Charley
Mitchell. Corbett or Fitzsimmons.
There isn't man in the country capa-
BILE of giving Jim Jeffries a run for his
money. Think of it, One man has the

RUSSIANS HOPE THE
JAPANESE WILL WIN

Among those seeking naturalization pa
pers at the county clerks office are great
many Russians. They are anxious to be
come citizens of this country because they
have no love for their native land They
all talk alike and say that in Russia they
were subject to harsh military service and
overtaxed on everything they owned Many
of them are afraid that unless they can
claim the protection of Uncle Sam the
czar's minions are liable to pull them out
of bed any night and shanghai them back
into the military service which is so loath-
some to them.
Some are not at all backward about Elk
pressing the hope that Russia will be
worsted in the war which seems imminent
with Japan, and others say they do NOT
care anything about it one way or the
other
