Then Fleeson sketched his ca

attracting attention and money
when he was a mere lad. A job
as lyric writer was offered him by
Will Rossiter, Of Chicago. He
accepted. The craze for ball room

Neville Fleeson On Lyric Writing

Theirs are two things that most
people think they can do without
any experience or preparation
whatever: write a play, or write a
song lyric. For some reason, these
things are considered easy to do,
all history. to the contrary. not
withstanding. / mentioned this
singular delusion to Neville Flee
son, who is one Of the most sue
cessful lyric writer's in the coun-
try today. s,
"Sure, they think it is easy" he
said. But you will notice that
those who think writing songs is
easy are those who never sue
coed"
How did you get into the
gamer" I asked.

course. She persuaded him to
write q vaudeville act, IN which
they appeared together In Chi
cage. Then he invaded New York,
playing In real ttdrammer." Event
ually al. Won Tilzer, Of the fam-
Gus song-writfng family, saw the
vaudeville act, tsThe Vocal YER
dict, which was the work Of
Neville Fleeson, and suggested to
the author that they form a writ
ling partnership. The pact was
made, and Won Tilzer and Fleeson
turned out such successes as zone
For All and All For One" writ
ten for the Stage Women's War
Relief and now the official song Of
the Actors Equity, Somewhere.
Someone Is Waiting For Me- -
Say It With Flowers" ffWaters
of Venice" It'll Be With You In
Apple Blossom Time,' and the
music and lyrics Of Honey Girl ;.
the musical comedy sensation.
At this point Of our talk AL. Won
T1lzer once more dashed into the
room. He heard us mention
Honey Girl
'.Be sure to put In your article
that Mr.. Fleeson has the faculty
Of writing lyrics that mean some
thing to the plot Of the play and
which carry the story along" he
interjected. fThat IS what lyrics
should do and that is what few
1Vrin wrifora do
Al. Won Tilzer had popped out
of the room before I could reply.
I turned to F1eeson questioningly.
''Yes, I always try to tell story
IN my lines, or put some sort of a.
punch In them," he said. "Just
words without meaning many
lyrics have little sense make me
mad. I also try to visualize the
song and singer together. And
when called upon to write special
stuff, study the personality Of
the artist and eadeavor to "a.
A certain type of song will suiea
certain type Of performer better
than another, you know, and I
make it my job to fit the words Of
the song to the singer
''sort of temperamentaI dag,
nosis!" I ventured to say. AseThat
sounds difhcu1t!''
Rather agreed Fleeson. p'but
I know something still more DIM
cult. A humorous light shone In
his eyes. COLLECTING money for
a vaudeville act Of mine which has
been going the rounds for four
years. That is The Vocal YER
dict the very act that caught Mr..
Won Tilzer's fancy and led to our
partnership. The woman playing
it calmly refuses to give me any
royalty for the act. What do you
think Of that? I am hot on her
trail, believe me.''
Fleeson has written several sue
cessful vaudeville acts: one.
"Cupid's Mirror was Christie
MacDonald's vehicle for two years:
another is being starred in by
Trixie Friganza at present, and he
was working on q musical play for
Adele Rowland, the leading lady
in Irene" when I had my talk
with him.
Those who imagine a lyric wri-
ter waits for his poems to come to
him and is obedienN to the tickle
muse, ought to see Neville Fleeson
in action!

U. S. COURT coMMIsss oNER
ORDERS EXTRACTION
OF CANADIAN.
WAS ARRESTED AT SLEEPY
EYE RECENTLY FOR A
SERIOUS CRIME.

Mrs. c.. L. Suggett of Mirror,
Alberta, Canada, who was arrested at
Sleepy Eye some weeks ago, at the
instance of Provincial Detective j.
O. Scott of Red Deer in the same
province, on the charge of having
furnished instruments and drugs to
women and girls of her home town for
the purpose of committing crimes
against nature, must return to Canada
and face the charge of m urder in one
instance. The crime with which she
is charged, that of furnishing the
means to perform the criminal opera
ton complained of, is Of itself suf-
ficiently serious to be punished by life
imprisonment in Canada, regardless
OF whether death of the victim ensues
or not.
Extradition Granted.
It will be remembered as stated in
the Review at the time, that Mrs.
Suggett was arrested at the home of a
friend in Sleepy Eye, where she and
her fye-year-old son had ostensibly
been visiting. Detective Scott claim
ed that she was fugitive from justice,
having left Canada just before being
indicted by grand jury there, and he
had documentary evidence to sub
stantiate his statements. Subsequent
~, hearing was held before United
States Court Commissioner Howard S.
Abbott at Minneapolis, following Mrs.
Suggett's arrest on Federal warrant,
charging her with being fugitive from
Justice. The matter was postponed
until Monday of this week, when the
request for extradition was granted
and Commissioner Abbott ordered her

to return to Canada. The extradi-
ton papers were forwarded to Wash
ington, D. c., by him and will be re-
turned after being approved by the
State Department there.
File Notice of Appeal.
Attorney Henry N. Somsen of this
city and Attorney Einar Hoidale OF
Minneapolis, as counsel for Mrs.
Suggett, filed writ of certiorari with
Commissioner Abbott, being an appeal
for her release, and this matter will
be urged before Federal Judge Wilbur
T. Booth at Minneapolis in the near
future. In the meantime, Mrs. Sug-
gett must remain in the Hennepin
county Jail, where she has been con-
fined since being taken to Minneapolis
by deputy United States marshall
about three weeks ago..
After the prisoner had refused to
accompany the Canadian officer back
without extradition papers being
issued, Detective Scott engaged the
local law firm of Mueller & Streissguth
as counsel fbr the Canadian govern
ment, and Attorney Alfred W. Meuller
appeared for his client at the hearing
before Commissioner Abbott in Min
neapolis, Monday.

Then she decorates the birthday

MARRIED 80 YEARS.

Mr.. and Mrs. William F. Muesing,
well-known and respected residents of
New Ulm for many years, we're most
agreeably and successfully surprised
by a large number of relatives and
friends at their home on North
Franklin street, Thursday evening,
the occasion being their Goth wedding
anniversary. The evening was most
delightfully."- spent in social converse
ton and a delicious repast was served.
Mr.. Muesing was born in Stadt-
hagen, near Krebshagen, Schaum-
burg, Lippe- Dettmold, Germany, and
left the Fatherland with his parents
when less than a year old, observing
his first birthday anniversary on board
ship enroute here. The family located
at Elgin, ILL.,, For one year, then re-
moving to New Ulm, where they spent
about six months before moving onto
ia farm in CORTLAND township. The
following year Mr.. Musings father
acquired homestead in Nicollet
township, near Nicollet village, where
the family continued to reside for
many years.
In 1885, Mr.. Muesing entered DR..
Martin Luther College in this city,
completing the four-year normal
course, whereupon he graduated from
that institution in 1889. The follow
ing fall he accepted a position as
teacher in St. PauPs Ev. Lutheran
parochial school here and continued in
this capacity for over 25 years. After
giving up his profession as an in
structor, Mr.. Muesing entered the
employ of William Ruemke in the
latter's grocery store here, which
position he retained for six years, until
taking up his duties as shipping clerk
in the big plant of the Saffert- Gugis-
berg Cement Construction Co. in this
city nearly two years ago.
Mrs. Muesing, nee Miss Louise
Hahn is native New Ulmite. She was
ia daughter of the late Mr.. and Mrs.
John Hahn. During the cyclone, which
devastated New Ulm in July, 1881,
nearly 40 years ago, Mr.. Hahn was
carried a distance of about half mile,
being rendered unconscious. After re-
gaining consciousness late the same
evening, he found himself lying on a
door from his home, but every other
vestige of the house had disappeared
as if by magic. He finally located the
members Of his family, consisting Of
Mrs. Hahn and their two daughters,
Mrs. Muesing and Mrs. Henry He'll
mann, the latter also still resident of
New Ulm. They were unharmed,
having sought refuge in the cellar of
the family residence, while Mr.. Hahn
attempted to hold the door shut.
About year later, Mrs. Muesing,
while returning home after having
.herded cows in the south end Of the
city, accidentally found an old tobacco
bag, containing number Of gold coins.
Taking them home, her parents recog-
nized the bag as one in which they had
kept their savings, composed of gold
coins. The bag must have been
carried away with the house and other
belongings Of the family.

they have every

won't make 1t any
