HENRIETTA CRosMAN.

An honor and compliment that
has been accorded to no other player
has been rendered to Henrietta Cros-
man, peerless comedienne, At the
Friars' club in New York last week a
number OF the best known and bril-
liant advance agents and newspaper
men were discussing who was the
greatest actress on the stage today
As may be supposed. good many
names were mentioned and under fire.
but when the smoke cleared away the
name OF Henrietta Crosman was ac-
claimed as "the greatest" BY re-
markable coincidence. the above is
but q repetition OF what has taken
place at both the Lambs and Players
clubs in New York within the past
year. in each instance the subject
came up because of an argument be-
tween two members. and as Is always
the case in these we'll known theatri-
cal clubs, such an argument is the
cause OF general discussion by those
present There are some who may
dispute Miss Crosmans claim. but
only because they do not know the
scope Of the woman. Actors are often
not prone to give their fellows their
due. but when they unanimously make
a stand as in the case OF Miss Cros-
man. they are pretty nearly right

SIG :HART's POSITION.

A good many people are wondering
In what capacity little Sig Hart Is en-
ployed at Jack Johnson's training
camp. According to Chicago paper
which publishes tho following com
mont on Sig. here is there TO keep
Johnson in good humor:
'SIg reaches somewhere about Jonn-
sons waist and buzzee about the
pIace like a bumblebee. What he lacks
in height he makes up In quantity OF
speech, and is an especial pet OF the
hic colored fighter, who is continually
bandving csts and engaging In lively
arguments with his dlminutive pro-
teee In fact, Hart is rightly looked
mon as the comedian Of the quarters,
and Johnson asserts that 1t Is impos-
.ihle for him to contract a lit OF the
blues while Sig Is In the neighbor'
hood.
"RIcht there one can fnd the key
note To Johnson's character he Is OF
such a cheerful disposition that he
cannot bear to have any one around
him who Ia not prepared to grin at a
moments notice. Hence the perpetual
golden smile which writer's dwell on
On persistcntly when referring TO inc
negro champion. Cheerfulness per.
yades the training quarters at all
tIroes In his toughest sparrlng OF
wrestllng bouts With Marty Cutler,
lack never loses his good hnmor. and
his loud, hearty laugh Is constantly

SHOULD BE NO
COLOR PREJUDICE
tBy Harry D, Cashmen)

New York. June lin many quar-
tors there has been an evident de-
sire 10 stir up q racial prejudice In
the coming battle between Jehries
and Johnson. Some have even gone
so far as to claim that the negroes
throughout the country would become
unbearable In the event OF Johnson
winning and race riots would surely
result.
I don't believe word of 1t. Hay-

can see no reason TO throw all precc-
dent out of the window In the July
4 affair. Nobody ever wanted to mob
Joe Cans when he won-and he was
a pretty frequent winner-nor Geo
Dixon nor Joe Wolcott Surely the
last named was more offensive In his
egotism than Johnson. even II the
other two may furnish bad illustra-
tlons ON account OF their gentlemanly
demeanor at times
Tho big affair is a contest between
men, not races oil men. lhose
fighters who have drawn the color
line In the past have, almost WITH
out exception, done so because there
happened TO be negro OF uhelr
