nation appeared in a publication OF the
colored race in Baltimore several
months ago. In response TO frequent in
quiries about whether he would become
a candidate for President since then,
General DUPONT would laugh at report /
ers, and decline even to discuss the sub I.
ject. Now, however, il seems that Re-
publican business men in several States
have taken up the suggestion and arvl
advancing the name of General DUPONT
for the nomination because of his reed
ognized ability as n constructive or
ganizer. General DUPONT was formerly
head OF the T.. /. DUPONT de Nemours
Powder Company. but is now chiefly In
tcrested In the new Equitable Building
and in the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety. in which he holds 81 per cent. oi
the stock. His friends believe he is
willing 10 become candidate for
President If there was a widespread de.
mand that he run.
General DUPONT was az his Offices
az 100 Broadway yesterday when Wis
itors arrived TO ask him about his
candidacy. as reported in the morn
ing newspapers He said that there
seemed TO be a we'll formed idea

business man Is put az the head Of
the administration. A friend who re-
fused 10 allow his name 10 be mem
toned. volunteered the information
that General DUPONT had demon
stratod by his conduct OF big affairs
that he was eminently qualified for
the Presidency.
General DUPONT is a member Of the
Republican National Committee from
Delaware. He said he had talked
over the situation with various po-
ltical leaders. including Frank
Hitchcock. but had not considered
the essential planks for n platform.
because of the exceedingly unsettled
sitlation General DUPONT did not care
to outline any principles OF policies.
"What will the weather be April

his voice carried over the partition.
Gee, hope it's short, said another.
Percy gritted his teeth.
aGive them the hottest line of stuff
you We got, he snarled at AL. @If you can
think of anything rottener than the stuff
you speak regularly, let them have it,"
"Leave it to me, kid" said AL.
Just then the call-boy knocked.
"Come on, Perce. You're next
Percy hid behind the door and latched
it after AL. Immediate cries of pleasure
and astonishment greeted disappearance:
"Look at Perce's make-up!"
"Wow that's SWELL"
The genuine Percy stood alone in the
dressing-room, his fists clinched and his
jaw set His social life in the town and the
respect of his friends were dear to him.
1t was all the life he had. He cursed
the day he had consented to take part
in the show. Farewell to his carefully
nourished reputation. Farewell to Vinella.
He listened with all his soul in his ears.
A GREAT yell shattered the stiffness of
expectancy. From the audience on
the other side of the footlights came a
huge, spontaneous outbreak like nothing
that had been heard before that night.
The yell was followed by deep silence.
They've ordered him off the stage.
It's over, said Percy behind his teeth
Suddenly burst another yell. AL was
handing out his line of jokes.

self?' snapped Percy briskly. "If you
think the shows too long, why dent
you cut out your own act? What do you
mean by asking me to take part, and then
coming and asking me to drop out?"
"Well, Perce, don't drop out, then.
Don't get mad. just don't drop out;
that's ALL"
"You bet l won't!"
Percy walked up and down his private
Office with his hands clinched behind his
back. 1t was one thing for him to make
up his mind to stay out, but quite another
for these fellows to band together to kick
him out. Percy went out and bought an
extra large assortment of crockery, plates
and pitchers, for the act-twice as many
as AL used regularly. Probably tomorrow
he wouldn't have respectable friend
left, but, by ginger, if they tried to kick
him off the program he'd simply break
up their confounded show, that's all.
Percy was so hot with indignation that
it was not until quite while later the
thought came to him that Vinella Ecker
would be among the friends he would lose
forever. 1t had taken him four years to
get to where he stood with Vinella, and
now he was about to throw it away in one
night. Percy walked and walked his
floor.
Percy did not go home to lunch. He
was afraid that if he saw AL and heard him
talk he would not have the courage to
send him out before the public. Late in
Evening star., 1916-08-06

to 1t.
"Don't look at it.
Don't listen to it,"
There wasn't much
chance Vinella wouldn't
watch that act and see
what on earth it was
that Percy was making
all this fuss about.
In his dressing-room
Percy found AL all made
up. He looked so much
worse closeat hand than
hedid seen from in front
that Percyalmost called
the thing off at the
last moment. But the
voice of one of the COM
mittee outside oppor-
tunely braced his reso-
luton.
"The next thing is
the Percy junk said
the committee per-
son, unaware how well
