Speaking of the profits of the mid

How about Mr.. Cox who has accumu-
lated two millions as an organizer IF
public service corporations-for the
benefit of the incorporators?
It does seem rather inconsistent for
the democrats In Iowa to censure
Cummins for his part in returning
the railroads to their private owners
when the democratic national plat
form commends President Wilson for
signing the cummins- Esch law and
appeals to the country for fair trial
for that law.

Of amusement and upon one of his
visits to Chieag<Ae witnessed 3 per.
Torrance and gave the management
high praise forthe opportunities that
this theatre made for. the race, and
he also paid high tribute to the eff
forts of the performers, later he made
arrangements with Mr.. Motifs, and de-
livered one of his famous lectures
from the stage of the theatre.
Mr.. Cleridge Taylor, the famous
composer who was touring this coun-
try, was SO impressed with the Pekir
that he made it his headquarters dur
ing his three days stay in Chicago.
Through over-work and steady ap
plication to his business Mr.. Motts
commenced to experience a decline
in health which resulted in his early
death. He made frequent trips tc
various health resorts and spent large
sums of money with specialists try
ing to recover but to no avail. Il
was suggested to him that he go away
ard get the Pekin out of his mine
and possibly that would help him. He
replied that he would devote all the
remainder of his time to the manage
ment of the theatre as it had moth
ing to do with his failing health
and he did until his dying day. Boil
commenced to realize that his all
ment was very serious and one thai
he would not recover from, so hi
called in his attorneys who arranged
all legal matters connected with hi
business so that his sister Mrs. D
Mckee Jackson would have no diff

! Mr. Motifs, always had strong effec

she devoted all of her life to the wei
fare of her mother and Bob said tina

THE NEGRO AND CHICAGO, PAST AND

By Lieut.. ]. E. Hawkins

The Pekin Theatre had now be
come so we'll known that the daily
papers place it in their amusement
columns and gave the shows favor
able mention by their critics. Each
succeeding performance would at
tract patrons from the "loop thea
-tresu- would have the experience ct
their lives when witnessing one of the
performances at this theatre as the
majority of white people had been
lead to think that the eolored man
succeeded as minstrel performer
and had very little ability along legi-
innate lines, but witnessing one per-
Torrance of the Pekin Stock Comp.
was enough to dispel any lingering
doubt as to the possibilities Of the
eolored race if given equal OPP
portunity.
Mr.. Motifs knew how to take adj
vantage of opportunity and placed
his add in all Of the leading papers,
and through this attracted the atten-
ton of Chicago's leading society peo-
pie; they first came out of curiosity
and thinking that the shows would
be written on lines of buffonery-in-
stead they found themselves in a
world of song and witnessed acts
that appealed to the most aesthetic.
Mrs. Springer, the wife of one of
Chicago's leading business men, and
herself a woman of high social dis
tinction made a visit to this theatre
with her husband and a number Of
friends, and was so impressed with
her venture that some time later on
when Mrs Potter Palmer was discus
sing arrangements for the coming
charity bazar which was to be held
in her Lake Shore Mansion-prevail-
ed upon Mrs. Palmer to arrange with
the management of the theatre for
series of performances of the Pekin
! Stock Company. Mrs. Palmer took
the matter under advisement and in
company with the Baroness Won Slip
enbach attended one of the plays and
Immediately after she made a con-
tract with Mr.. Motifs for a perform
ance to be given in her Lake Shore
Castle.
The newspapers Of the city gave
much space to this unique arrange
ment of Mrs. Palmer, and the after
reports through the columns of the
| daily's proved that the arrangement
of Mrs. Palmer was more than sue
cess. The hit made by the colored
performers was so great that the
society people made other contracts
with Mr.. Motifs for the appearance
of the company at two downtown
theatres where special performances
were given for the benefit of charity.
Joe Jordan brought out several new
musicals for these occasions and j.
/ Ed. Green, Jerry Mills, Lottie Grady,
/ May White and others of the COM
pany added new laurels to their
crowns and Mr.. Motifs commenced to
experience difficulty in keeping road
shows from over bidding and getting
his performers from under his con
troll Of his performers, but he was a
strong believer in the old adage that
