attraction is without a doubt sue

next Wednesday night, January 20.
This is the first time this play has
ever been sent west of Denver, as
the success of this attraction
throughout the central states was SO
great that it was impossible to cover
the coast. For three of these sea-
sons Mr.. Walker Whiteside used 1--WE

and it was one of his greatest sue
cesses. Mr.. Edmund Carroll, who is
the present star in I'VE Are King
was, for three seasons, leading sup
port to Mr.. Whiteside. His clever
work in this capacity caused him to
be placed at the head of this play as
Mr.. Whiteside's successor. Mr..
Whiteside now appearing in New
York City.
Mr.. A. W. Cross, who is Mr..
Whiteside's manager promises in

A Denial.

To the Editor of Rice Belt Journal:
| wish to correct an item appearing
10 the Rice Belt Journal of July 10th
to the effect that Mr.. Louis Williams
and myself would fight a prize fight to
finish at Welsh, about the middle of
August. | wish to say that l will not
fight Mr.. Williams or any one else the
middle Of August or any other time.
While enjoy friendly bout with
the gloves occasionally, l am not in
the prize fighting business, and am
not looking for that kind of noteriety,
and to my friends. who are trying to
bring this fight about, saying there is
money in it, l wish to say that thank
them for the interest they are taking
in my financial welfare, but l will try
and get along without the few dollars
| would receive, as there is few dol
lars in it, and less glory.
hope this will put stop to any
further effort to bring this fight about
as | absolutely refuse to consider any
proposition to take part in prize
fight under any conditions.
BY request of my mother, whom
love and whose wishes I respect.
Respectfully yours,
Wesley Jacobs.
