property in but three cities in the
country-New York, Chicago and New
Orleans. To get into New Orleans
the syndicate needed the Leath Cir
cult, so the fight was concentrated in
this territory. In order to scare the
controllers of this circuit the ultima
tum was issued that no Klaw & Err
LANCER shows would be allowed in the
theatres in which Independent attrac-
lions were allowed to show. Now it is
also a fact, established beyond doubt,
that of the thirty odd Klaw & Erlang-
er productions booked for the Acad-
envy for next season more than fifty
per cent have signified their intention
of playing this time regardless of what
the syndicate may say, and the re-
naming fifty per cent have made no
statement whatever. Beyond doubt
the Theatre Owners Association has
won the fight, and it looks now as if
the Klaw &. Erlanger houses in New
Orleans will have to open to the indie
pendent attractions.
1t was pointed out today that when
David Warfield first produced the
Music Master" he was forced, be-
cause of his manager, David Belasco,
who had made success with Blanche
Bates in the Girl of the Golden
West" to occupy the poorest theatre
in New York. the Bijou, by the trust
Notwithstanding this fact Warfield's
success is now proverbial, and in or
der to bolster up a serious mistake,
Klaw & Erlanger put Warfield on
the road in their houses, or, rather
the houses under their control So
was the situation in the South but
in this case, the trust had Jake Wells
to reckon with, and he has won.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Palmetto Beach Has Big Show This

Palmetto Beach Has Big Show This
Week.
The show this week at Palmettoi
Beach is very classy, two of the acts
being distinct novelty features. Monte
LIE Crosse, the silver-heel buck dancer,
closed his season at the VIM. Morris
circuit only two weeks ago and when
he leaves Pensacola he will go direct
to Europe for season of twenty-five
weeks. He does everything in dancing
on pedestal that any other dancer
does on stage floor and will probably
set the people of this city talking.
Ned Fitzgibbons, styled as the sing
ing violinist, is simply great. He does
many limitations and tricks ON the
sweet-toned instrument and also plays
his own music for his songs, which
he sings we'll This is MIR. Fitzgib-
hons's first appearance in the south

nounces the special engagement for
this week of Hyde and Raymond, a
comedy sketch team that is really fun
ny and have many good songs. The
title of the sketch is His Best Pal, .
in which six complete changes Of
wardrobe are used during the act
Mr.. Hyde's representations of Harry
Lauder, the great Scotch comedian,
are said to be perfect. Miss Ray
mond's dancing is also graceful and
good, and her double-voiced singing
will be the cause for many an encore
during the week.
New moving pictures will be shown
on the Palmettoscope. Today during
the hours from 5 to p. N. Professor
Seels's complete orchestra will play q
concert of up-to-date music and at ia
six reels of film will be shown. Good
singing of high-class songs will be fea'
lures.

PENSACOLA BOY REGARDED AS
POWER IN THEATRICAL WORLD
NOW IN ABSOLUTE CONTROL
OF LEATH CIRCUIT.

Jake Wells, the Pensacolian who
has arisen to be a power in the thea
trical world, is something of trust
buster" so far as theatrical combina-
lions are concerned. His latest exploit
is to win out in a fight with the Err
LANCER people, who were trying to get
control of the south and southeastern
territory, and to do this had to make
a connecting link of a chain of the
aires at Richmond. Wells is manager
of the Academy there, and he has
beaten them to FRAGILE.
Mrs. George Wells, mother of the
theatrical fighter, is in Pensacola, the
guest of her daughter, Mrs. Ben Dun
ham, and she has heard with no little
expressions Of material regard of her
sons achievement. She has been here
about six months

JAKE WELLS WINS OUT
FOR THE OPEN DOOR
Jake Wells has won

Jake Wells has won.
Richmond will have the open-door
at the Academy and thereby hangs
story of the greatest fight in the
theatrical world for many days. The
fact that Jake Wells has won out
will cause little surprise among those
who know the man and his connec
ton with the theatrical business in
this and other cities. His ability as
a fighter has been established and
when the welfare of the public is con-
cerned, so far as amusements are con-
cerned, he has always been found in
the forefront of the battle.
Controls Circuit.
Another fact that some of the erst-
while authorities on things theatrical
ing failed to acknowledge is that Jake
Wells absolutely controls the Leath
theatrical circuit. There is no ques-
ton about this fact. Those who won't
see it will have to realize it when the
season of 1901 opens. His fight has
been practically single-handed, and he
deserves all of the credit for carrying
the warfare into the enemy's territory
and coming off victor
When the National Theatre Owners
Association was organized. Jake Wells
became an active member. He knew
conditions throughout the South and
he knew that people in this neck of
the woods were not getting all that
was coming to them in either quantity
or quality of shows. This was some
thing more than three years ago, and
since that time he has been quietly
carrying on his campaign When
Klaw & Erlanger-the theatrical trust
became advised of the activities of
the Theatre Owners Association, they
likewise got busy. With them it was
case of browbeating.

they, none of our wares shall you

his associates, but they were in the
right. popular opinion was behind
them, and so they kept on.

Scores of villages have been destroyed

The loss of life cannot as yet be es.

streams OF lava poured down the noun
tainside into the villages. and the air
became thick with smoke and falling

breathe.
Flee In Terror.
Men, women and children, terrified,

Many were caught in the food OF
lava and persisted. Others fled leav-

The volcano Is about 20 miles north

about 1000 feet. At the bottom OF
the crater was a lake Of yellowish

1t was burning hot and scalded those
