black allies OF the grand Old party
do not want to appear disloyal to the

OF unrest among the colored republi-

their votes are essential to republi-

better than Col. Harry 8. New, act

Tom Logan, the versatile comedi-
an, now playing the important char
acter role OF The Parson" In Ernest
Hogan's Rufus Rastus" party, has
had large experience as a theatrical
manager, as we'll as an actor. Two
seasons ago he was handling an all
star vaudeville combination, doing
a summer garden stunt in the sub
urbs Of Louisville. One afternoon.
Logan received a note from Mr..
Thomas Cole, a popular factor in the
business life Of the Falls City and
proprietor Of the 'swellest" cafe in
the town. The note read:
Dear Tom would like to have
your company at dinner tomorrow a.

Logan cheerfully sent ain affirmative
answer. The next afternoon, prompt

ST Hopkins Sayings.

Some self-Tade men should be
ashamed of the job.
In Indiana they put some mighty big
monuments over some pretty small
men.
Bathtubs are aS useful on q farm as
anywhere else, only some folks don't
seem to think so.
When a man gets TO be a big smoke
in his own town somebody w and
names Il cheroOt after him.
Some Indiana farm hands think when
they water the stock that they are Wall
street brokers.
Some New York restaurants are as
swell-eieGant as a South Bend dude in
his zee cream suit.
Ma says considering the way some
females carry on there must be right
smart of patient men in the world.
Many a horse can trot fast mile
when not in a race. Ma says ii is the
sa re with some mems talk.
When a farmer gets to calling him
self an agriculturist you can make uo
your mind that the mortgage is about
to be foreciosed.
Ma lows that when farm hand gets
to mOnkeying with one of those mani
cure outfits his days of usefulness are
about over.

guage" before he played it. He has
found just as other suppliers of theat-
rical fare on this side of the Atlantic
have found, that American audiences
are coming more and more to demand
American plays and American musical
comedies.
AS between plays of about the same
Importance, one of which was written
abroad and the other was done in this
country, there were in the olden time
never two opinions. The play from
abroad won out every time The Lon
don hall mark meant a great deal The
American stage got out of it's swad-
ding clothes, and with the rise of
clever American playmakers the Lon
don hail mark lost great deal of it's
efficacy. Then it was superseded by
the New York hall mark Plays writ
ten and produced in New York got to
be only plays. Now. this has passed
also.
Plays are produced in Chicago, in
San Francisco, and in other cities. and
go on to success which used to attend
only those that came out of New York
One good reason that the American
made article has been found so salts
factory is that it is written in various
parts of the country. It represents the
country more than it represents sim
ply New York. And as playwrights
Gus parts of the United States so does
the Americanmade play continue to
grow in power. The United States now
can supply about all that it consumes.
and the supply is increasing all the
time

HEAVY PRICE PAID
FOR STAGE SUCCESS

Richard Mansfield will not De axle
because Of the imperfect condition of
his health, TO resume acting for another
year at least. Annie Russell has gene
to 4 country place in Maine. where with
her husband. Oswald York;. she VIII
kill time till next December. Her
health has given away. FRITZ Scheff
has returned 10 the stage after an alb
sence of longer duration than would
have been the case hal her health
kept up. Olga Nethersole has gone 10
Switzerland, there to recuDersIts from
an illness that almost laid her low.
Ethel Barrymore, whose last tour has
been interrupted several times Ny ILL
ness, now announces that if her health
permits she hopes 10 become Il prina
donna in opera instead of going on as
an actress. and she is told that she
must take the best possible care of her
health.
True it is that The Price that is paid
for success on the stage is a high
price. says the Chicago Tribune
The first places in the profession are
gained at the expense of great physical
and mental fatigue. to say nothing OF
the sacrifice of comforts and conven-
fences. and to say that a man or a NO
man has won out on the stage is to say
that he or she either paid a. great price
for success or that the price will have
to be paid.
Mental collapse has been the price
that some of the brightest ornaments
OF the stage hive had 10 pay. Maurice
Barrymore whose wit was as keen
and flashing as a raDier. yielded to
death in a madhOuse. Joseph Murphy 5
old cOmpeer. Scanlon. whose, acting in
Irish plays brought him a fortune, wnet
insane. The strain of insanity that rain
through the great theatrical family of
Booth caused the tragedy of the muir
der of President Lincoln and it embit-
tered the entire life of Edwin Booth.

But while the percentage of the ac-
tors who have gone mad has been
large 1t has not been so large as has
been the percentage of those who have
thrown away the greatest chances that
have come TO them to become great.
Edmund Kean. who by many stu
dents of acting is called the greatest
actor that ever lived, was followed all
his life by the devil of intemperance.
II was his intemperance that wrought
such evils in the Kean household that
il became necessary for Charles Kean,
the younger. to leave school and become
an actor thst he might support his
mother
Many actors since the days Of Kean
have loved their bottle. and many OF
these actors have fallen bv the way
side in consequence. Now some of these
players never drank at all until they
went upon the stage. 1t is likely that
they drank afterWard because of the
exciting and stimulating influences Of
the playhouse. influences which always
are accompanied by and placed in di-
rect contrast with periods of depres-
sion and loss of hope.

Some one who knows Richard Mans

Of contradictions ever put in human
package. While he may rage at this
person or that person for something
done or not done on the stage, he is
careful of the welfare Of the members
of his company as if he We're response
bic for their keeping. He has been
known more than once not only to re-
tain a player on pay roll through six
months of illness, but to pay all the
sufferers expenses, besides. Yet he
would discharge that player incOnti-
nently for some Offense that any other
star on earth would consider trivial
And it is not the playing members
of the company alone he watches over.
Every attache comes within his range.
Once. while in Canada, his stage car

the mans death until the day follow
ing his demise Then he sent for his
manager.

Yes"
You have not neglected anything on

"Oh. no." replied the manager. we

wrath. return to the ladies and gentle
men of my company every dollar they
contributed. If you value my regard
never let such a collection be made
again among my associates"
The Murphy funeral bill was paid by
Mr.. Mansfield.
And yet Mr.. Mansfield probably got
in more RACES with poor Murphy than
with any stage carpenter he ever en-
ployed.
