except linotyping. He began his news
paper career at twelve in his fathers
printing Office, where he was required
to set two galleys Of long primer daily.
Now, though fifty-six, he is still keen
for everything but the worries of a
newspaper Office. He began the publ
cation of the Globe at the age of TWEEN
ty-three and speedily made it perhaps
the best known small town paper in
the country. His Globe Sights were
copied everywhere. The following are
typical paragraphs:
Another girl who took piano lessons, ex-
pecting to go into society, has turned out
stenog.
When a young man and a young woman
have been engaged long time they talk
as rough to each other as married people.
If women are so amiable and sweet why
is it that other women do not care for
them as roomers and boarders?
In talking of his retirement and his
little publication Howe remarked:

tconoclast and too big coward to give
people occasion to shoot at me-"

youngest men who have sat in the
United States senate, he is known to
the citizens of his state as man of
great agility in both business and
political way. He has long been rec
ognized as being next to his father in
command of the Elkins millions
He is named after his maternal
grandfather, Henry Gassaway Davis,
former senator from West Virginia
and candidate for the vice presidency
In 1904 on the Democratic ticket head
ed by Alton B. Parker.
Davis Ellxins took a special course
in civil engineering at Harvard to fit
him for the management of his IA
TIERS extensive coal and railroad
properties. At twenty-five he was
given partial command, being made a
director Of the Morgantown and King
wood railroad, which, though but fifty
miles in length, occupies a strategic
position in the West Virginia coal
fields. He is now president of this
company and also Of the Elkins Coal
company The new senator also has
had military experience, having seEv-
ed as captain on the staff of General
schwan in Porto Rico during the Span
ish war
It is predicted that if the Republic
ans recapture the West Virginia leg

houses 40 years of history who had
been forced to appear before the cur
tain in response to the demands Of the
audience to personally show their ap-
proFaI of the wonderful mechanism
that spelled success for the Lew Wal
lace dramatization.
Then, being overworked, Mr.. Hagen
thought he would try something light
er and emfgrated to Coney Island.
As result of this change of base the
famous fire spectacle entitled Flight
ing the Flames appeared and has
since been seen from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Then came the call to the
New theater, the contribution of the
artistic wealthy to the cleansing of the
drama, with it's opportunity for strug-
Cling playwrights.
With such theatrical record it
would seem as If Mr. Hagen must
have been literally born on the stage.
Instead he is native of Chicago and
spent his boyhood in Minneapolis,
Philadelphia and Kansas City, arriv-
ing at the Missouri burg in, 1879.
when, to use his own words, the town
twas practically a brickyard." But
he entered the theatrical business
there and erected several theaters for
capitalists during his stay. Then he
began his wanderings, which have car
ried him all over the United States
and into some foreign countries as
well.
One of the best of the specimens of
the Hagen handicraft at the New the
ater is the revolving stage, probably
unsurpassed in America if not all 9th
er countries as well. The idea is net
claimed as original by Mr.. Hagen, who
said in explaining its workings:
"The first revolving stage was in use
during the sixteenth century by the
japanese. 1t was merely a round
turntable. Since then various modifi-
cations have been devised. The stage
Of the New theater is a distinct type.
inasmuch as it revolyes, moves back
ward and forward or transversely and
up and down, as a whole or in parts.
1t also permits sections of the trans.
verse stage to be dropped and the rest
of the sections to be opened so as 10
form sinks or cuts through which to
lower whole sections
This stage enables us to reduce to
a minimum the time between scenes.
The Caucasian. (Shreveport, La.) 1900-192?, 1911-01-29

that have been SO plentifully exposed
by illustrations the public still views
them with awe and enthusiasm.
Probably the premier among stage
Illusions is Claude L. Hagen, who con
structed the stage of the New theater,
New York, and is technical director OF
all its effects. Mr., Hagen's career has
been a long one, and a catalogue of his
achievements reads like a procession
of theatrical "reminiscences to almost
any playgoer of the present day.
For instance, Mr.. Hagen was the in
ventor of many of the tricks and illu-
sions used by Alexander Herrmanns
the first of the celebrated trio of magf-
clans of that name. Then there were
the sumptuous productions of Cleo
patra' and "Gismonda" by Fanny
Davenport Afterward Mr.. Hagen was
connected with the theatrical syndicate
that produced "Ben-Hur," for which
he invented the world famous chariot
race scene. Later Mr.. Hagen pro-
duced this at the Drury Lane theater,
in London, where it scored an immedi-
ate success. So great was the en-
thusiasm that Mr.. Hagen was given
the singular honor of being the only
man in his line Of business during the

DESIGN FOR PERRY MEMORIAL ON LAKE
thousand people, but it will not be the
principal feature of the Perry cen
tennial because it win be but tempo
rary.
The permanent feature will be in
the form of monument to be erected
at Put-in-Bay and for which congress
has already made an appropriation of
S25O.O00. The dedication ceremonies
of this memorial may be one of the
leading features Of the celebration.
From present plans the Perry monu-
ment will be one of the most novel
ever erected, being a combination of
the artistic with unitarian features.
For instance, the monument itself
will doubtless be an immense shaft of
granite, and tentative architectural
provisions have been made in the base
for assembly halls and offices.
Again, the position of the monument,
near Sandusky, O., is so commanding
that it can serve as a lighthouse as
well. The wireless telegraph, of
course, will be an adjunct of the light
house. and provision can easily be
made for an observatory without
marring its architectural beauty.
Another public feature at the base
of the structure will be an aquarium,
showing specimens of the fish indig-
enous to the great lakes, more partic-
ularly.

time to enter one of the partitions of
the revolving door, so, perforee, the
officer took the next. The thief had no
