THEATER RELICS
PUT ON DISPLAY

New York, April 23.-Theater relics
of thirty wears ago, which were col
lected by the late Annie PiXley and her
husband, Robert Fulford, with a guam
tity of the actress personal effects and
household goods, are on exhibition IN
an auctioneer's windows. The goods
have been stored for some years, and
have been ordered sold at auction by
the storage concern to pay the
charges.
The relics attracted much attention
from persons connected with the the
atrical profession yesterday, chiefly
because of the reminders of Annie
Pixley's successful play IN Hiss,
which she bought early in the lOs
from Bret Harte, and played with
great success in the West. The actress
first appeared in "M'Liss' at Niblos
garden on September %, 1878, and the
play was so successful that for ten
years she played nothing else. Then
she appeared in "The Deacon's Daugh-
ter" Manuscript copies of the lines
of the two plays, written by the
actress herself, are included in the
relies. There are many pictures OF
the actress in costume and scrap-books
containing clippings telling of the
actress death in London in 1898. Full
ford, who married her in Australia
early in her career, was her manager
during the years of her successes, and
inherited fortune from her, estimat-
ed at 100000. Fulford left here five
years ago and went to England to
live.

HOW TO APPLY PAINT.

Greatest care should be taken when
painting buildings or implements
which are exposed to the weather. to
have the paint applied properly. No
excellence of material can make up
for carelessness of application, any
more than care in applying it can
make poor paint wear well.
The surface to be painted should be
dry and sCraped and sandpapered
hard and smooth Pure white lead
should be mixed with pure linseed oil,
fresh for the job, and should be Wen
brushed out, not flowed on thick.
When painting is done in this manner
with National Lead Company's pure
white lead (tradC marked with The
Dutch Boy Painter'D there is every
chance that the job will be satisfac-
tory. White lead is capable of ABB
solute test for purity National Lead
Company, Woodbridge Building, New
York, will send a testing outfit free to

COLOR LINE IS DRAWN
In ORGANIZED BASEBALL
Neoroes Allowed to Break Into All
Sports with White Man Except
in National Game.

The color line is practically myth
in all branches of sport except profes-
sional baseball. Several times stars
of the diamond have attempted to
break into the minor and big leagues,
but their identity has been discovered
in each instance.
Muggsy McGraw once tried to get
tryout for a colored player by the
name of Grant He tied some Indian
name onto the gentleman of color, but
the player never got a chance to show
in Baltimore. Barney JOY, the pitcher
secured by Boston from the Pacific
Coast league, was said to be colorcd

was born in the Hawaiian islands.
RUDE Foster who plays with the lie.
land Giants, is considered as great
pitcher as Rube Waddell. He is a
southpaw with a Waddell physique
and assortment of curves, and would
be a star in fast company if it wasn't
for the shade of his complexion. Fos-
ter is of such dusky hue that no
manager has ever tried to ring him in.

He holds the Penn record for a quar-.

in the history of the ring. Battling

KILLS MOTHER, THEN HIMSELF.
New York Broker and His Mother
Found Dead in Her Apartments.

New York, Nov. 5.-Revelation by
son to his mother Of secret mar
riage and parental refusal to be re-
conciled to it Is believed to have been
the impelling cause of double trage-
dy in a large hotel here yesterday.
The victims of the tragedy were Mrs.
Rebecca Veit, welthy widow, and
her only son, ]. Nelson Veit, 81 years
of age, a Wall street broker, the cir
Gu istances of the affair indicating
that the mother was shot by the son /,
and the latter then took his own life
by inhaling Illuminating gas. Mrs.
Welt lay dead in her bed, while her
son was found on the floor Of the bath
room in his mothers apartment. An
aunt of the suicide, Miss Anna Welt,
discovered the bodies when she
sought to awaken Mrs. Veit, In whose
apartment she had spent the night.
The police made the discovery that
Veit, who was supposed to be single,
was married secretely in October Of
last year. His mother had only re-
Gently returned from France and the
coroner's theory is that her finding
out about her sons marriage percipi-
tated quarrel between them, culmi-
mating in the tragedy.
The police found Mrs. j. Nelson
Veit, the widow Of the dead man, In
another uptown apartment house.
where she said she had been living
with Veit for a month past, having
been away from New York all the
time since her marriage with Veit In
October, 1907. Mrs. Veit said that
she never met her husbands mother
and did not know whether or not
the mother was ever told of the mar
riage. Her husband, she said, left
early last night and telephoned to her
about 1880 O'Clock that he would be
home in half an hour. She did not
hear from him again.
The dead woman was the widow Of
the late Felix Veit, wealthy broker
and senior member of the firm Of
Veit, Lyon & Co., well known a few
years ago in Wall street. The moth

in France, where she owned a cha

the National Guard Of New York.

Mr.. Bryan i'm Defeat.
Charlotte Obseryer.)

The case of Hon. William Ten-
nings Bryan is one full Of pat hos.
From whatever motive, whether sell
fish ambition as his enemies assert,
or an unselfish desire as he claims,
to be in a position to serve the in
terests Of the people, there is no
doubt that he was keenly anxious
to be elected President-never so
anxious as this year, nor so conf
o"nt as in the campaign just ended.
His disappointment, therefore, in the
result Of yesterdays election must
approach anguish of mind, and be
the keener by reason of the fact
which must be perfectly apparent to
him that his last opportunity to be
President has passed. Men have
run for this office three times, but
none four, and Mr.. Bryan's name
will now be dropped, no doubt at his
own instance, frcm the list of the
available candidates Of the future.
Clearly in the last moments Of the
campaign he realized that his star
was about to set; one reading his
speech at Marysville, Kans., Monday
night, could detect between the lines
that he had seen the finger of fate.
Every man with a heart in him must
feel very sorry for this man whose
hope Of twelve years has been dashed
But he made a magnificent fight.
He spoke splendidly-with fine abil-
ity, with imperturbable good tenn
per, and under such physical strain
as no other man could have endured.
From East to West he travelled in
whirlwind fashion, making speech
after speech daily, his physical en-
ergy unabatCd, his superb nerve un-
shaken. He went down, but went
with his face to@the foe and his flag
flying. SO then:
"The harder you're thrown, why,
the higher you bounce;
Be proud of your blackened eye!
1t isn't the fact that you're licked
that counts;
It's how did you fight--and why?
"And though you be done to the
death, what then?
If you battled the best you could,
If you played your part in the world
Of men,
Why, the critic will call it good.
Death comes with a crawl, or comes
with pounce,
And whether he's slow or spry,
1t isn't the fact that you're dead that
counts,
But only how did you die?"

BRYAN DISCUSSES ELECTION.
Pleased with His Victory In His Own
State-He Is I'm Fine Shape. S

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. Awhile not
caring to discuss at this time the po-
litical effect of the Democratic victory
in his home State or analyze the
causes, VIM. ]. Bryan this afternoon,
in an informal talk to number of
friends who called on him, expressed
his pleasure at the result in Nebras-
ka and the satisfaction 1t Afforded
him to learn of the election of 80
many of his political and personal
friends. A delegation numbering
nearly hundred from Lincoln visit
ed Mr.. Bryan at Fairyiew to express
to him their confidence aud devotion,
sentiment of majority Of the peo-
pie Of his city and State. Mr.. Bryan,
In responding, said:
''I am highly gratified over the re-
suits in this State. The national de-
feat has not been such a disappoint-
ment when we have had so many
things to console us. hope / have
convinced my friends that running

Personally I shall find as much

and loyalty of the people near us.
1t has been the greatest comfort that
the election has given us. The fact
that those among whom we live have
shown this confidence we appreciate
more than can tell you. 1t has been
very kind of you to come out here
and visit us on this day."
The defeat he sustained yesterday
did not weigh heavily on Mr.. Bryan.
He was one of the most cheerful of
these at his home, and laughed and
joked good naturedly with his visit
ors. Tonight Mr.. Bryan was the
guest Of honor at the banquet Of the
State Teachers Association, where he
made short address. He has no
other immediate plans than to rest
at his home following his canvass.
