Thomas Jefferson a. .sRip.n

No higher compliment could have i been paid the venerable Joseph Jeffer- son than that paid him in Montgomery yesterday.
 At the matinee performance at the Montgomery Theatre 200 people were unable to secure seats and at the night performance the theatre was crowded.
 Was this because Thomas Jefferson. the star. had achieved fame in the part? Was it because the audiences thought they would see an unusually artistic production of soulful com edy? These were not the reasons that drew the large audiences.
 Montgomerians hurried to the Mont gomery Theatre yesterday to see Thomas Jefferson's production of Rip Van Winkle" because Thomas Jeffer- son Is the son of Joe Jefferson, the dean of American actors.
 Let it not be construed from these sentences that Thomas Jefferson has no other asset than being the son of tho most widely known man on the Amer lean stage. Thomas Jefferson is him- self an actor and an actor of ability. His production of Rip Van Wrinkle" Is finished.
 Thomas Jefferson knows how and does stir with the simple lines of the play, founded on Washington Irving 8 myth, that which is best and most mo- ble in mankind. Thomas Jefferson yesterday brought tears to the eyes of his audience. In another second the audience yelled with merriment but throughout the play everyone had pie tured in his mind a white-haired old gentleman with a peaked face, who had been seen in the part.
 Rip Van Wrinkle" Is too familiar to all theatre-goers to attempt discus sion of the merits of the play, and comparisons between father and son are obviously out of taste.
 The supporting company of Thomas Jefferson Is not strong. though. Fred erick Malcolm made a splendid Der rickson Beekman and Ethel Fuller was an acceptable Gritchen.
 MT. Jefferson has not provided his company with sufficient scenery and costumes to make the production keep pace with that of his distinguished father.
 If we are not to have Joseph Jeffer- son we'll take Thomas Jefferson. That was the verdict of yesterdays audi ence.

CONTEST FOR LANDS.

Florida After Lands Claimed by the
 Louisville and Nashville.
 The new Governor of Florida is af- ter lands claimed by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company. number of years ago the leglsia- ture of Florida passed an act giving to the Louisville and Nashville Rail- road 10000 acres of land in the ever glades for every mile of railroad built in Western Florida. The possessions now in litigation comprise some B. 000,000 acres, an immense portion of the State, which the present officials are desirous of recovering.
 Governor Broward. who has recently been inaugurated. takes the stand that the legislature had no right to grant the lands, as Congress had giv- en them to the State on coalition that funds derived from any part of them should be used in draining and re- claiming them.
 The case has been left in the hands of the Florida counsel by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Com pany. The attorneys for the company believe that the title to the lands, as granted by the legislature, is good, and that the company will win in the liti- gation. The fight was on in earnest several years ago, but has been al- lowed to drift along, no action being taken. until it was considered almost dead issue

NEGRO STOLE TROUSERS.

James Reynolds Captured with Stolen
 Property.
 James Reynolds, negro, is locked up at police headquarters charged with grand larceny
 Last nihgt about Il o'clock Reynolds visited the Racket Store on Dexter Av- enue presumably to make some Satur- day night purchases but when the clerks back was turned he evinced a desire to >"tack for the open" rather than spend his hard-earned wages. He was stopped, however. by the clerk who discovered two pairs of trousers, valued at s6.5O neatly tucked under Jamess coat.
 Police Officer D. T. Loe was called in and Reynolds will have to answer in the Recorders Court tomorrow af- ternoon for his misdeeds.
