MAeNANIMoUs GIFT.
Aged Couple Give Land for New Ma
tional Santorium.

Colorado Springs.-After laborlnS
tor IA years to acquire their holdings,
James K. POLK Taylor, a former slave,
II years OLD ana MS treeDorn Wl1e,
Elizabeth Jane Taylor, Is years ola,
have turned over about 4S0 acres Oh
rich farming land located near Cal
nan, and about 40 miles from Colora-
DO Springs, Colo, to the Charles sum
ner National tuberculosis association.
The land is valued at about $40 ali
acre, and will be used as site for a
large sanatorium which While prl-
marily proposed for colored people OF
the United States, Will also care Tor
consumptives OF other races, should
such service be required.
News of the transfer of thel and for
this purpose was made by DR.. ). W..
Crosthwaite, national secretary and f.
nancial agent for the association who
recently returned from the farm, after
completing the details in connection
with the transfer This means radi-
cal change from the first plans of the
association, as it was the original pur-
pose to locate the sanatorium In or
near Denver The associations by
laws, however, provide for the cree
ton of the sanatorium in Denver OF
at some place easily accessible there
from, and for this reason, when the
offer of the land some 40 miles from
this city was made it was decided TO
locate the health resort there. The
Rev. William R. Stephens, pastor Of
/ IL 1Oig NnfC
church of Colorado Springs, will be-
come one of the trustees of the prop
erty.
The association which was incorpol'
ated last July, expects to expend ap
proximately 100000 on the sanatori
UNI. Forty acres of the land will be
devoted to the sanatorium proper, as
building site, and the remaining 44C
acres will be used for agricultural
purposes partially to sustain the in
stitution, it being the purpose of the
organization to make the institution
wholly self-supporting in time, if pos
sible.

to the Satisfaction OF all ana wlCn
credlt TO themselves.
MT. FERDINAND bradford in the part

liant performers. MIR. bradford Is,

power OF denvery, which enables HIM

and realism which won Tor MIN the
applause and admiration OF the en-
tire audlence. The greater part or
the success of the performance was
hinged upon his connection Win

Hon. j. C. Napier as Monsieur
Beachelin played his part well. Mr..
Napier could not have been replaced,
Tor in the entire play ne was volo
OF exaggeration.
MI. william Saunders was in every
respect a noticeable figure and like
Mr.. Kelly of Fisk University and Mr..
Booth and Mr.. Jackson won loud ap-
plause. On whole the entire pro-
gram was rendered in a manner COM
mendable to its participants. The
costumes were elegant and OF French
creation.
The Hospital authorities are not
hesitant in acknowledging their obil-
cations to the noble characters who
so nobly entered into this great per-
Torrance for the benefit of so worthy
an enterprise.
The linen shower, marking the

THE IRON MASTER AT MEHARRY.

1t is fitting to note the splendid sue
cess brought about by the rendition OF
me drama, The Iron Master, at Me-
harry Auditorium during the past
week. From beginning to end there
was an exhibition of pure intelligence
and careful adaptation to their respec-
tive parts. 1t is putting it mildly
when one says that the production
was the best of its kind rendered in
Nashville during recent years. The
drama was presented in four acts anu
it only could have been reproduced by
talents of the best type in our mldst.
AS all will admit, drama OF French
character requires, not the skill OF the
beginner. but matured minds to rem
der it effectively.
Mrs. G. N. Langston, to whom much
credit is reflected, has worked earn
estly in bringing about this play; and
not only has she acted in it's man
agement, but superbly so in rendering
her part to the satisfaction OF all. TO
speak of the characters individually
is a matter that would entail a great
amount of time and space, and for
this reason | desire to comment IN
brief only on those whose leading
role compels particular mention.
Miss Anita Scott as Athenias
Moulinet, as customary with her, was
at home on the stage. 1t was so well
done that it was difficult to find a
line between the real person and the
impersonater.
Mrs. Alice Cheatham in the part
of Claire Reaulieu, and the most
noted of the characters in the play
was a tremendous success. Mrs
Cheatham was in the play with all the
motives that bring about fitness. II
was this great and brilliant character
which touched the emotional side Of
her hearers and having surrendered
her life as the ransom of her husband
made her most conspicuous.
DR.. Josie Wells, one of the pro
moters of the play and foremost
among the characters acted her par,
without a doubt. DR.. Wells in the
part of the Marquise de Beaulieu, vel
demonstrated that part of a mother
which was especially noticeable.

A Remarkable Performance.

On the opening day of the Indiana
State Fair, at Indianapolis, on Sep
TENDER IL, was witnessed the most
extraordinary performance ever seen
on the harness racing circuit. 1t
was fourhorse pacing race, with the
four champions-Minor Heir, Hedge
wood Boy, Lady Maud G. and George
Gano-all owned by M. w. Savage, OF
Minneapolis, MINI. The contest was
for the race and for new worlds
record.
Hedgewood Boy drew the pole, but
Minor Heir passed around him and
took the lead before reaching the
quarter, which was passed in 20 81
seconds, and was never afterwards
headed, passing the half in SO sec
onds, the three-quarters in 1929 Ia,
and passed under the wire without a
touch of the whip in the unprecedent
ed time of 1859, not only lowering his
worlds race record Of goo q full sec
ond, but establishing a new worlds
record for PAGERS "in the open," the
previous one having been 1853 la,

FREEHOLDER
ADMITSP POOR MEMORY.
Cann0tsRecall Amount of Earth
Excayated at Overlook.

Former Freeholder Edward c. Eaton.
chairman of the building committee of
the Board of Freeholders, during the
greater part of 1903, was the only
witness called before the Overlook
appraisal commission yesterday. He
added but little new to the matters now
under investigation.
He vas mainly quizzed about the ex-
cavation work al Overlook P. San
ford Ross, of the commission, has pre-
pared tentative figures, showing that
the excavating work so far has cost the
county about $14S,O00, but hat as yet
no figures are available as to the
amount of earth excavated.
Mr.. Eaton could throw no light on
his matter. In regard to inspectors
appointed by the building committee
after faulty work had been found at
Overlook, Mr.. Eaton said that as far
asshe remembered they were appointed
by the+nembers of the committee. Four
men were appointed, but he had not
named any of them. He said Free
holder Hugh Gallagher, of Montclair,
n~amedsone and former Freebooter E. J.
Quinn, of Tenth ward, another. He
could not recall who named the other
two.
Former County Supervisor John F.
Otterbein will appear before the COM
mission at its next meeting on Thurs
day.

CURTISS, MARS AND BAL OWN
TO FLY AT PITTSBURG MEET.

PITTSBURG. Aug. 2.-Brunot's ISL
and, In the Ohio river, Just below the
point of Pittsburg's triangular business
section, with its skyscrapers, is to be
the scene of the first aviation meet in
Pennsylvania this week. The Pitts
burg Aero Club. which was recently
former with W. l.. Smith as president,
has engaged three a~viators, Glenn H.
Curtiss. j. c. Mars and Captain Thomas
Baldwin, to fly here. Their machines
were set up today In readiness for the
opening of the meet on Thursday.
While 1t only has been announced
that the aviators will engage in races
and height contests about the island, 1t
has been intimated that an attempt
may be made to circle or cross over the
downtown district. The high bluffs
and hills along the rive together with
buildings of no mean height in the city,
and the wind currents about them will
offer plenty of pitfalls to the aviators.
Clouds of dense smoke add an element
of danger peculiar to Pittsburg. The
meet will continue three days.

Dur Lady of Good Council Branch and
Branch 1907 of the Ladies Catholic
Benevolent Association last night rem
dered interesting reports regarding the
recent supreme convention held at
Cleveland. and gave "reminiscences of
their trip. While the defeat of the local
candidate, Mrs. Maria Quinn, for SUI
preme president was deplored, the
members felt 5anguine that the popu-
lar supreme trustee would win next
year. Those who read reports and
made remarks were Mrs. Margaret
O'Brien, Of st. James; Mrs. Jane War
rem, Of Our Lady of Good Council
Branch, and Mrs. Eliza Hogue, Of
Branch 1907, and several others. The
success of the trip was largely due
