P. T. BARNUM. 1S10-1910.

In print the other day an old-time friend of PhineaS T. Barnum express ed a doubt as to whether the great snowman ever said that 'the Ameri- can people love to be humbugged." 7" Barnum himself did not deny the phrase. Nothing in this declaration is inconsistent with a career which opened in 1885 with the exhibition of lone of the greatest natural curiosi- ties ever witnessed, viz. Joice Heth, a negress 161 years old, who formerly belonged to the father of Gen. Wash iDgton.'
 Certainly Barnum knew his crowd and knew the value of advertising Born at Bethel, Conn. hundred years ago today. he was not less plucky than shrewd. Losing fortunes in succession by failure and fire. he never lacked courage for a fresh start And he settled with his creditors.
 This generation may laugh at the old stories of the Barnum woolly horse. the Japanese mermaid and the white elephant. It must remember, how ever, that the same promoter who brought out these freaks gave America also it's chance to hear Jenny Lind. Tom Thumb too was a Barnum find, with profit to the finder. Such hum buggery as was his. Barnum exploited frankly and to the whole world It is significant that nineteen years after his death his name still is one to con- jure with in the field of the tented s>W.

EXECUTION RUNS IN
 THE EATERS CASE
United States Marshal Making
 Demand For S225,OOO

United States Marshal Edson S. Bishop went to Danbury yesterday to make demand on the defendants, un- der execution issued by the United States circuit court in the suit of D. E.. Loewe & Co.,, hat manufacturers of Danbury, against Martin Lawler and others. members of the hatters' union The case is known as the matters case D. E. Loewe & Co.,, alleged that the member of the union conspired against them, they sued for damages and to them was awarded $225, GOO
 The case is to be taken to the Uni ted States circuit court of appeals by the defendants. Judge Platt had fix ed a time for the defendants to file bond in the sum of s250,000 to stay execution, but the defendants failed to file the bond and execution followed Real estate of the defendants and money which many of them had in banks was attached when the suit was first brought. Although an ap- peal is to be taken the appeal does not stay execution in the federal court practice, but should the defendants pay, D. E. Loewee & Co.,, will have to return what they realize under the execution should the United States circuit court of appeals upset the judgment Of the United States circuit court. If the defendants do not pay on demand by the marshal a scire fa- cias will run against them and they will have to appear in court and tell the reason why they do not pay.

BAND PLAYED BUT QUARTET WAS STALLED
 BY AUTO MISHAP

Attracted by the excellent music given at the previous band concerts by the Coast Artillery Corps band a number of thousand people went to Seaside park last night to attend the weekly band concert there by this band only to be disappointed because the Ted Snyder quartet, which had made such a hit last week at Wash ington park, were unable to get there through no fault of their own. The quartet had left New York at o'clock in the afternoon in an auto mobile bound for Bridgeport but be- tween Stamford and Norwalk the ma chine broke down and stalled them so that they could not even get a train so as to arrive here in season to full fill their engagement. This trouble the band were in complete ignorance of until after the concert was all over. Chief Musician Paul G. Gould ing had the band play a number of extra selections, thus prolonging the concert in hopes that the quartet would put in an appearance. The con- cert by the. band was fully up to their usual high standard

WHAT DEFEATED JEF'ERIES.

The principal causes of the defeat Of Jeffries by Johnson appear to be: Over-confidence on Jeffries' part, in- cIuding his belief that he could take any punishment within Johnson's abil- ity to inflict and still retain full strength for a knockout blow; substi- tuition of trout fishing for such phy- sical training as would lessen the 1n- terior fat accumulated during some years of abstinence from hard physl- cal exercise, extreme difficulty, if not impossibility, of "coming back after a lengthy period of comparative idle ness; the dexterity of Johnson as boxer, and his ability to deliver much heaver blow than was expected. There may have been minor causes, but the above mentioned amply suffice to explain Jeffries' defeat. Combined, they were sufficient to make John- son outclass his opponent.
 The fight was not the fake antici- pated by many, nor did, Johnson show the yellow streak predicted by some. Jeffries would not, if a party to any fake. have taken such severe punish ment, nor would Johnson have lnfllct- ed it. The fight would have been pro- longed with light punishment on both sides. As to Johnson's alleged vel low streak, there was no trace of it. He did not avoid punishment, except in ways legitimately connected with good ring generalship."
 The better man-the one in better condition every way-won; his success was not due to any accidental blow. as sometimes happens in ring encoun- ters. He struck the more and the heavier blows, which fact is ample to explain his success. And he is now the undoubted, unquestioned, heavy weight champion of the world, and will quite probably remain such until he. like all his predecessors, goes stale, through fdleness, excesses, etc, and is outclassed, as was Jeffries, by some newcomer in the pugilistic field. The white world sympathizes with the defeated man, but is equally ready to concede that, at this time and un- der the existing conditions, Johnson won the fight fairly and is the better rugilist.

TIE THEATRES
POLES

InOSe who attend this weeks preSen- tation by the Poli Players will find themselves amply repaid for the time and the nominal investment for the offering is the famous Eugene Walter play Paid in Full and to say that in its every aspect it is the best presen- tation yet put forward by the PoIi Players is to put it mildly indeed. It certainly is the most talked of play that has been presented here this season and it is simply teeming with interest and it is natural that it should for it is easily understand able, it is made up of incidents that may not come home to. all of us but they are incidents of which we are we'll aware there is an existence. Briefly told it concerns a young mar rled couple with ambitions socially and an income of eighteen dollars per week. They do their own housework which is appalling to the relatives of the young wife. The husband suuirms under the criticisms of his wifes folks, tries to get more salary and is refus- ed. He then does what he thinks is the next best thing and steals from his employer. When found out and cornered he tries to make his wife barter herself to his employer to save him. That is the brutal statement of facts and the author has certainly Ol. So artistically are the scenes and sit nations carried out and so excellent is it all acted by the Players that the artistic merit of it all appeals above all else.
 J. Hammond Daley the very cap- able juvenile of the company has the role of Joe Brooks and Miss Fleming gives a charming portrayal of the role of Emma Brooks the wife. John E. Ince is admirably cast as Jimsy Smith one of the best character roles on the American stage and Joseph Egg genton as the rough and uncouth sea mans heart is the Captain Williams Around these four the entire interest of the play revolves and the four carry their roles admirab bly,.
 The scene between Mrs. Brooks and Captain Williams at night in the apartments of the latter where Brooks has sent his wife to barter herself is the scene that made the play famous and MT. Eggenton and Miss Fleming act it on a par with any two that have ever played the roles. Paid in Full will be seen all week at Polls at popular prices and in the fall it lar price of admission.

God willing, I'll be here next ses- sion and it will be for the Republican majority to determine who shall be speaker said Speaker Cannon at the close of the Congressional session This means that he will be a candi- date for reelection to the House and is confident of success, and that he will then be a candidate for re-elec- ton to the Speakership. The Demo- crats of his district must act differ ently from their custom, if he is to be defeated; they must nominate a bona fide candidate, and not mere dummy. As to the Speakership, that will be decided by the caucus of whichever party is dominant: in the event of the Republican party secur- ing a majority of the House, the In- surgents must, in order to defeat Can- non, be stronger numerically than at present, or be willing to unite with the Democrats.

The death of Chief Justice Fuller of the U. s. Supreme court makes another vacancy to be filled by Presi- dent Taft. It would not be strange if his appointments should affect in some way the decisions of the court upon some or all of the important questions pending before it. Between now and December when the appoint ments will probably be made, there will be ample time for ascertainment of the records, if any, of the judicial possibilities upon these questions. The new Justices should be men of open minds, uncommitted and appropriated upon pending issues.
