there was perhaps as much bearish

California as anything more than q

All that one heard in the financial
district to account for such pressure
as was applied to stocks was the en-
barrassment of old world diplomats

MISS LNVERNE AND MISS SCOTT
WITH STRONG COMPANY AT
ACADEMY OF MUSIC.

The Lucille Laverne Stock company
opened It's engagement at the Acad-
envy of Music last night with Grace
Georges success "A Woman's Way"
The company was welcomed as old
friends. and If the glad hand was
ever extended to returning friends 1t
was extended last night. Miss Laverne
and Miss Grayce Scott We're recalled
several times. and the appreciation of
the audience shown by repeated hand
claps and several bouquets Both
were compelled to make curtain talks
to the audience expressive Of their
pleasure at their return to Richmond,
and Of appreciation at their reception.
The play itself is well known In
Richmond, and had been seen at least
once probably by nearly every one
in the audience, but ii was enjoyed
immensely for all that The COM
pany is a good one. and under the
direction of Mr.. Percival Aylmer
promises 10 give the theatergoers or
Richmond h performance every night
of merit.
As Good as Ever.
OF Miss Lavernes and Miss Scott
little need be said They are old aC-
quaintances of Richmond people. and
in "A Woman's Way" as in all the
z
part here. they won the hearts and
applause of the audience. Miss La
verne, as Mrs. Biakemore, the siren
/ who attracts the husbands of other
women. and Miss Scott. as Marion
Stanton the one wife who met the

and won out for the affections of her
husband. was charming and clever.

taken, but if ne was intended to be a
strong man, temporarily taken off his
balance by the wiles of a charming
woman of uncertain morals he failed.
/ At any rate he succeeded in portray

it is probable that the character
( which he portrayed last night was
not altogether suitable to his style OF
acting.

Laughter and Then Laughter.

In TACT, It IS one laugh from start
to finish. The man who can wit
ness the quiet drollery of George sid
ney and the convulsive antics of Dick
Hume, the man with the comedy face
and the comedy hands and the comedy
voice, is---well, there's something
wrong with him, that's all.
This energetic Isadore and the rest
of the bunch will he at the Bitou

they were last night If you don't
feel in the laughing mood, for
heavens sake stay away. for youl

No Plot. of Course.

There is no plot TO the thing--it
all happens in two frolics, one laid in
Izzys dry goods emporium, where he
stacks up pile OF coin. and the other
in his dizzy hotel, where he loses 1t,
but this arrangement affords ample
opportunity for the inimitable drol-
lery of the yiddisher and his CO.
worker, Wilmington WhaT; the
vivaCious Miss Wehber's piquant mis-
chief; the most entertaining combina-
tion of catchy, tuneful music a Bijou
audience has heard in a long time
and the gambols of the prettiest, best
dressed and most shapely chorus that
has come this way in weeks
The topical song hits of the farce
are Take a Little Tip From Icy

ING GEORGE SIDNEY.

An audience that packed the Bijou
theater from pit to dome last night
welcomed back to Richmond George
Sidney, Carrie Weber, Dick Hume
and the rest of the bunch who con-
tinue to contribute to the hilarity of
Busy Izzy," musically and otherwise !;
laughed until their respective sides
ached, and pronounced the unanimous
verdict that when ncnsensical alb
surdities shall come to be recognized,
George Sidneys Foolish Pastinre in
Two Frolics" must head the list OF
classics in the Hall of Fame.
Though billed as the 1918 edition
there has not been the change of a
line or a joke or a song since Rich
mond saw it last. nor is change neces-
sary. For some time TO come, unless
the tastes OF the average theatergoer
change, this really funny farce, with
its slap-stick humor. which contains
no suggestion of coarseness. ludicrous
situations and tuneful music, viii con-
tinue to get by" as it is. with the
clever comedians who are doing the
pushing, and believe me, in Sidney.

SAM M'CALL, EX-SLAVE,
IS A FARMING WONDER.
An lliterate Alabama Negroes Crop
Achievements Amaze Experts.

Sam Mccall is an ex-slave, illiterate
and seventy-fve years old, but he is
teaching the farmers of the world
some noteworthy lessons. he has won
fame by producing on his little farm
in central Alabama the largest amount
of cotton to the area ever grown in
the United States. This is one bale
to an eighth of an acre Of land. The
Importance of this achievement may
be understood when it is known that
the average yield for the United
States is only two-ffths of bale for a
whole acre.
| Sam Mccall has developed a method
of cultivation on once worthless land
which is so successful that he thinks
nothing now Of producing three and
0ne-half to four bales Of cotton an
acre or eighty bushels Of oats or corn.
The average in the southern states for
corn and oats runs fifteen to twenty
five bushels an acre.
When Sam was made free he bought
land to the amount of 100 acres. He
year made hardly enough to keep him.
self. He concluded that with his linn
| tied, equipment and in view of the fact
that he was doing practically all his
own work it would be wise for him to
reduce the amount Of land. He grad
ually brought his cultivated farm down
to two acres and for twenty-five years
on this plot has spent all of his time
and energies in what farm experts call
one Of the most interesting examples
Of intensive farming carried on in the
United States.
| According to some who have gone to
Alabama to study his methods, the
reason for the ex-slave's success in ag-
riculture is due largely to the fact that
he has manufactured nitrogen in the
soil unknowingly by feeding the soil
bacteria with carbohydrates and cellu-

crops
| McCalps land is part of an abandon
ed farm. Before he began to cultivate
it the soil was perhaps as bad as any
that can be found on any farm in the
southern states. The former slave
knew nothing Of scientific methods of
cultivation, but was a good observer.
He noticed white farmers in his Sec
ton gathering leaves in the fall to
spread over their land to form humus
in the soil. Sam never heard of the
word humus, but he concluded the
white farmers knew what they were
doing, and he followed suit He later
decided to use the refuse of all crops
as natural fertilizer. At the time he
|began to cultivate his land commercial
fertilizers were little known, and the
ex-slave has never made use of them
|during his entire career.
