THE STAGE

1t has been simply impossible to ac-

pie who wanted to see Annette Kel-
lerman, THE Diving Venus" perform
In the Temple theater this week, and
thousands have been turned away.
The theater has never in It's history
enjoyed such a week OF enthusiasm.
The management has, therefore. been
anxious to secure Miss Kellerman
for a second week, and after negotia-
tions to that end and the expenditure
Of a great deal OF money the extra
week was secured The wonderful
diver, swimmer and dabolo player
will therefore remain at the Temple
for one more week and will be the
headliner of a fine bill of vaudeville
in which everything will be new ex-
cept her own performance. and that
will be new 10 the great throngs who

"A dinner OF cornmeal mush Is

Native laborers in South Africa are
recruited from the interior villages
by contractors. They work for year
or more and then return. to purchase
wives from fathers OF daughters with
their accumulated savings, thencefor-
ward to exist In idleness while the
women work for them. But a good
portion OF the natives earnings Is
spent In the stores.
At once a furious competition broke
out between Nathanson and the com
pany. Prices were cut below whole

and gradually Nathanson's patronage
fell away; bankruptcy menaced him
Kimberly surmised that he was at his
wits end: yet knowing Nathppson,

amazed to see the daily down-country
