L0TT|E COLLINS NO MORE
DEATH OF NOTED ENGLISH MU-
SIC HALL SINGER.
Rose to Fame Through the Presen.
tation of One Song, Clear
ing $25, 1000.

NEW YORK, May 3.-Miss Lottie Col.
Inns Of "Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay" fame
whose death in London was announced
yesterday. was an English music hall
singer who rose to fame upon her per-
Torrance in one song and cleared $4,000
in her first American tour.
"Ta-ra-ra Boom-de-ay'' was written and
composed in 1890 by Henry J. sayres,
who was connected with the old Thatch-
sr's Ministries. an American company.
1t attracted no particular attention until
made over for Lottie Collins. who in
1892 made a tremendous hit with it In
the London Gayety Music Hall, where be-
fore that she did q skipping rope dance
and duet. In q month she jumped from
$50 a week to $500 and all England began
to whistle the air.
Engaged at High Salary.
In the autumn of 1892 Charles Froh-
man engaged Miss Collins to come to
this country at a salary said to have been
81. 900 a week. The Normania, aboard
which she came over. was held up in the
cholera quarantine of that year, and for
ten days the singer had a hard time.
Her debut was made in the Standard
Theater September 10, 1892, when she
did her dance between the first and Sec
ond acts of Jane" q comedy then rum
ming In that house.
Inc great vogue of the song and dance
was due partly to Miss Collins demure
suggestion OF rollicking wickedness in the
lines and partly to the frenzied break
down with which she filled in the gaps
between verses Of inanity.
Miss Collins first performance at the

GRADING SYSTEM IN VIEW
PLAN FOR BENEFIT OF NAVY
AND MARINE CORPS.
Consideration to Be Given Petty
Officers and Enlisted Men-Re-
tirement on Pay.

The proposition to establish a system Of
graded retirements for petty, officers and
enlisted men Of the navy and Marine
Germs will result in decided benefit to the
enlisted personnel 1t will induce men to
remain in the service and will prevent
situation which now finds such small
fraction of men with continuous service
II ia declared that the average enlisted
man IL not of much use on board the
modern ship of war after he has served
twenty-five years. At the same time the
man who gives his service to the army or
navy and who separates himself from
onportuntties of gaining lucrative employ
ment. with advancement in civil life Is
entitled to special consideration.
Instance of Injustice.
1t is contended that he should get the
nroper reward for his loyalty to the
service, and there should be protection
AGAINST such q misfortune as Is described
in the example cited by Mr. Meyer. OF
man who had served seventeen years in
the navy and could not re-eniist on ac-
count of defective eyesight. He had to be
dropped at a time IN life when ne mad
smau chance of obtaining employment
elsewhere. Under the proposed plan he
u;~ht have been retired with $50 month.
Risk Too Great.
An experience of that kind becomes
thown to men serving in their first en-
l,stment, and it Is natural that they con-
slider their welfare in the face Of such
a risk and refuse to incur the liability
Of disastrous separation from the navy
when they are untitled for work outside
of the service.
A letter has been sent to Congress in
support of the bill for graded retirement.
II contains the Official reasons which call
for the prompt enactment OF the legisla-
ton.

GOOD IN SPOTS.
One Man Who Discovered That WEI
Was Not Wholly Bad


Lem Jackson loved to loaf. He lived
in the mountains not far from Green
vile, Tenn, with his wife and large
brood OF children. Lem had "houn
dawg" that he set great store by. ard
he spent most of his time loungng IN
a runway waiting to shoot deer drir-
EN- in by old Bose or sprawling on the
bank of stream fishing. In that WAY
he was good provider after a fash
l Ion. but not all the urging. scolding,
nagging and demonstrating of his
! shrewiSh wife could drive him to work.
Lem led the lazy life Of a Rip Van
{ Wrinkle until the outbreak of the civil
war, and then he joined the Confed
crate army. At the end of six months
Lem was shot through the right thi-h
and IL was long before he was able to
limp out of the hospital and back to
his regiment. In the second year he
was shot in the left shoulder, and when
he returned TO duty his left hand was
bent far back by shortened tendon.
but he was still able to raise his rifle.
Early in the fourth year they got him
again-a musket ball through the body
but he was back in the ranks long
before the fighting was ended. Every
one wondered at LENS persistence in
sticking to the terrible trade of war
DR.. Girdner met Lem hobbling down
the street in Greenville one morning
In June, 1865. still pale and weak from
his latest wound, his right leg short
and wabbly, his left hand stilfly bent
back
"Glad to see you alive, Lem" said
the doctor. 81 suppose you're glad to
be home again?"
"Waal." Lem admitted without en-
thusiasm. II s'pose had to git erlong

down to Appomattox, an we all had
to go home
"But aren't you glad to be away from
