 Colonel Hays has always claimed authorship of the original words of Dixie and that he was responsible for the arrangement of the music His version of Dixie was written at the outbreak of the civil war. but the words were considered so seditious that the writer was arrested and compelled to change them"
 Colonel Hays was a bright repor- ter, and wrote some clever verses and songs, but he did not write Dixie He may have written some verses to that tune. but the original song. both verses and music famous as the song of the south. was written by Daniel D. Emmett of Mt Vernon Ohio. a once noted negro minstrel and song writer He was also the author of "Old Dan Tucker" "Jor- dan Is a Hard Road to Travel" i" "Go Way Boys" and other popular min- streI songs.
 Born of a good old Ohio family Emmett learned the printers trade. but his love of music led him to be- come a minstrel at the very begin ming of that amusement. He organ ized the Virginia Minstrels.' one of the earliest travelling shows of that kind in the early fortfes. He also played with Bryant's minstreIs. another early organization. and com posed negro melodies and plantation walk grounds" for them

Edward Saxon, the player who Is es-
saying Russelfs original role Of Hosea

and imagination who invests the role
with quality of mellow lovableness
which Is in keeping with the spirit of the
play. The character of this rather gaw-

one to portray, but Mr.. Saxon has prov

deity blends pathos and comedy with
mastery skill.
The supporting company contains the
names OF a number of well-known metro
politan players including that of Carson
Bradford, young society man from
Nashville, who has recently gone upon
the stage. Mr. Bradford plays the lead
ing juvenile role in the play and plays il
with such refreshing bouyaney and
