anybody who knows the facts-as I
have known them for long time-is
apt to think the SOX management
gets the better of it in the newspapers
because of Sox financial diplomacy
on one hand and Cubs lack of it on
the other And if enough people
found out the facts it would result in
loss Of confidence in the fairness of
the newspapers.
In general, my belief is that no pub
Usher can afford to accept special
privileges for himself, or permit his
employees to accept them. Nobody
really gets something for nothing.
Railroad passes, theatrical passes,
steamboat passes and all other passes
are issued on a business theory that
there is some compensation for them;
and usually they pay because they
get something not easily bought with
money.
There was a time when nearly
every judge on the bench carried a
pocket full of railroad passes. The
passes that went to judges, legislators
and public officials were generally is
sued through the chief counsel for
the road. Often the passes to Iegis-
lators, county commissioners, coun-
cilmen, mayors and politicians were
issued by lobbyists. In effect, they
were brides, even though the infiu-
ence was purely psychological. And
finally the public, for its own protec- .
ton, insisted that passes must stop.
Once as editor Of big newspaper
1 issued an order that no theatrical
passes be accepted. The first result
was a call by all Of the theatrical
managers in town, with a plea that
cancel that order. 1 refused. And

The LaSalle offers a drama of New
York life called. THE Regeneration"
today. The title is a bit misleading
but the play as il was called on the
dramatic stage was My Mamie Rose"
and is the life history of owen Kill
dare, one OF the unique characters
that New York's BOwery has pro-
dueed. There are many scenes typical
of the big eastern city, including an
excursion of over 500 east side people
on a river steamer. The burning of
the boat is one of the sensations of the
screen plays in which Anna @. Wilson
is featured.
On Thursday the LaSalle presents
Emmy Wehlen. a clever Niennese star,
in the story OF a New York girl,
When a Woman Loves. The sacri-
fees the heroine makes for the man
she loves. the thrilling incidents she
experiences and the many daring
deeds she accOmplishes would indicate
that a melodrama OF the most lurid
type was TO be presented. 1t is Miss
Wehlen's artistic treatment of the role
and the excellent support that makes
the picture one of genuine heart in
terest.

sCHUNIANN-HEINK COMING.

History does not chronicle another
career comparable with that of the
famous opera and concert star Ern-
estine Schumann- Heink Her life
reads like fiction through many
phases, and no greater proof of her
phenomenal courage and Cod given
genius could possibly be recorded than
the almost superhuman difficulties she
has overcome.
In 1898 Nine. Schumann- Heink en-
tered upon one year contract with the
Berlin Royal opera company in which
was included clause granting her a
1our year release TO accept an engage
ment at the Metropolitan opera in
New York. The Metropolitan was
then under the direction OF Maurice
Grau and Schumann-Hein made her
first American appearance in Chicago
with the company which was on tour
at the time.
1t is we'll remembered what success
greeted the wonderful artist at each
appearance. and SC unugsuas was the
enthusiasm during those four years,
that Nine. SchurIann-Heiak readily
paid 10000 marks to the Berlin opera
directors for a two year extension of
her American contract
In 1908 the emphatic demand for
her services induced her 20 buy off
the remaining years of the Berlin
contract at a price Of $4,000 marks.
During 1903-4 the singer made a con-
cert tour OF America that stands alb
Solutely unequalled in the annals of
music: she travelled over &C 600 miles
mat season, singing 10 packed houses
in over a hundred cities

Germany have for many years called
upon the services of Schumann-Heink
