FIELDER JONES SAYS HE
THROUGH WITH BASEBALL

Chicago, Dec. 22.-'I have quit base
ball for ever, and there is nothing
smaller than salary of 100000 a year
can lure me back on the diamond. Tell
the Sox fans l am sorry to leave them,
but they'll not see me in the lineup
any more.'
Fielder Jones, who styles himself
'ex-manager'' of the White Sox now,
stopped off here long enough to give
the above information to a number of
his friends who met him at the depot.
Jones arrived here from Bolivar, n.
Y, on his way to Portland, Ore. where
his partner awaits him to engage in
active duties in the lumber business,
| in which Jones is now established.
President Charles Comiskey of the
i White Sox declared he didn't know
whether Manager Fielder Jones dec
| laration that he would not leadN the
! White Sox next year was Il bluff or
| whether the light haired leader was in
earnest
But well win the pennant just the
| same, whether Jones leads the SoX or
| not added the "Old Roman"
President Comiskey faces another
| lay-off unless the salary of Ed Wa sh
| is raised The peerless spitballst
| wants $500 Il year and will hold out
| until this sum is promised him. Other
| members Of the Sox outfit also are
| said to be after raises
In the meantime they are wondering
what is to be done about the threaten
ed fines as punishment for their play
ing against the Logan Square out
| laws" Several of those who took part
in these exhibition games have sworn
they will never yield to what they con-
slider an outrage. If they are firm and
the National Commission goes through
with it's laws, "Commy" will have to
start out in search OF brand new ball
| club.

LORD DUNDREARY HAS
COME TO LIFE AGAIN
Younger sothern viii Appear at the
Mason in the Famous Role
of "Our American
Cousin"

Lord Dundreary will come to life
again at the Mason theater next week.
With the reincarnation will return the
immortal side whiskers, the monocle
and the frock coat which the genera
ton of the sos, SOS and '70s recognized
on sight, together with the stumbling,
suffering, confused speech, the hop
skip-and- jump walk and the hundred
and one other mannerisms which used
to fill theatergoers with uncomfortable
mirth.
The younger" Sothern, as he will be
called for many more years to come,
has reincarnated his fathers great role,
Lord Dundreary. 1t was a priceless
legacy left him, and into the famous
impersonation he has breathed the
charm of his own personality. Lord
Dundreary was one of the characters
in Tom Taylor's play Our American
Cousin" The play was first produced
at the Olympic theater, Broadway, New
York, on October Is, 1858, with Laura
Keene, who was then New Yorl's fore
most actress manager, as Florence
Trenchard, Joseph Jefferson as Asa
Trenchard Edward Askew Sothern as
Lord Dundreary and Mrs. Sothern as
Georgina. AT that time the part of
the nobleman consisted of only forty
seven lines.
Breaks Record for Long Run
For 1000 nights the production filed
the theater, and its popularity was en-
tirely due to Sothern's creation of the
character of Lord Dundreary. 1t was
the first of the "long-run" plays in
New York. From this country the
play went to England, where 1t broke
all records for long runs. Despite the
caricature of the English lord Sothern's
Dundreary pleased so we'll that his first
engagement at the Haymarket theater
lasted 500 nights.
The elder Sothern really made the
part He obtained from Miss Keene
permission to rewrite it, also to intro
duce gags" He revamped it until the
part had. only the merest connection
with Tom Taylor's creation. And once
he had started on his task he continued
for years to add drolleries to it.
$
The new Walker theater is holding
its own in the close competition now
on among the smaller houses. The
management is offering good vaude-
vile. Hess and Riordan seem to be
the most popular of the performers on
this weeks bill. They use several
novel instruments. including the Tyre
mandolin and monster harp guitar,
said to be the largest instrument of
the kind ever made. Both are manip-
ulated in artistic fashion. Their banjo
arrangement of popular southern mel
odies is a pleasing and tuneful feature.
Wells and Haverly offer an inter
esting line of turf slang in their race
track skit. The moving pictures are
new and include several exceptionally
good films.
