CHERRY Mine HERO
GOES ON The stage.
Man Who Sang Hymn to Mine Vic
Tins Will Draw Five Hundred
Dollars Per Week,

Special to The News.
st. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 16.-The Repub-
tic prints the following
William H. Clelland, one of the
twenty men taken alive from the Cher
ry mine and the man whose singing
of abide With Me" kept his COM
rades' spirit up during the tortures of
their long Imprisonment is going into
vaudeville.
He affixed his signature to a con-
tract with St. Louis theatrical firm
yesterday calling for his appearance
with his wife and two children for an
indefinite engagement at a salary
said to be $500 a week.
His first appearance before the pub
lie will be in st. Louis on Wednesday.
He will have no monologue for the
present, but will content himself with
answering questions propounded by
members of his audiences.
He. will be the feature of the open
ing attractions for the rejuvenation of
the dime museum as an institution in
st. Louis. The Bijou Amusement Syn
dictate has leased the building occu-
pied by the Bijou Dream arcade and
nickelodeon at No. COG Washington
avenue.
Clelland owes his boost from his
station as coal miner at "a a day to
fancy salary to his heroism while
imprisoned in the Cherry mine, 300
feet below the surface. How he sang
in rich Scotch baritone, abide With
Me" twice a day, when his comrades
were in the depths of despair, and
how he delivered two sermons, urging
them to fight death by being of good
cheer, were stories that made him a
popular hero throughout the country
in a day.

Mr.. Conrad deals with this type of
character in a clean-eut, concise style,
never descending to anything sensa-
