Has Words OF Praise for the "Hottsn-
tot" and William Collier

Wheeling folks who like good laugh
would do we'll to get ready for big
event Friday and Saturday OF this week
when the Court offers the we'll known
stage star. William Collier. in his
greatest comedy success. THE Hotten-
tot" The Indianapolis Star of Feb. s
speaks highly OF the performance. 1t
says in part:
Near the close Of the third act at
English's last night 1t appeared TO the
folks out In front that there was
horse race somewhere OF through the
wings. Perhaps II would be more &C
curate to say a steeple-chase In view or
the frequencc reference TO an event OF
that character which was scheduled as
an important part of the plot OF The
Hottentot."
or course you couldn't see it, but
there was no doubt from the gesticu-
lations Of several members OF the cas-;
and their excited utterances as they
gazed through their field glasses that
something out of the ordinary was hap
pening.
And also there was the fair young
blonde, whose Cnlors tho frightened
hero was carrying, who couldn't Keep
from inquiring about his fate--and ms
position in the race. II never would
have done for him TO have lost-for
had he not informed the blonde one
lust before nc mounted the fiery Steed
that If he didn't come home a winner
she certainly could look down on him
and say how natural he looks?
To hc sure other horse races have
been run back stage at English's. IL
has been Il favoritc place in Indianap-
In
wears. And If they all prove as inter-
csting and as realistic as the one staged
nv William Collier and his associates
the folk out front won't mind II they
don't even hear the CHATTER of the hoors
and II they are not permitted to cheer
the winner.
This "Hottcntot" produced by Sam II.
Harris and presented by Mr.. Collier is
one of the lvlicst farccs seen here IN
a long while or the kind no better
entertainment could be asked. What
moro could be said by way Of praise"
Mr.. Mapes probably is responsible for
the BACKGROUND of the farce. He hts
Mr.. Collier with the role of rich young
man who is desperately afraid or
horses. Then he arranges for him 10
fall in love with a charming young girl
who is tremendously fond OF horses and
who Is beng on winning the steeple-
chase with ffpr entry.
And 1t happens that Sam Harring-
ton. the rich young man played by Mr..
Collier, is travelling under false colors.
tnother OF the same name Is the most
noted gentleman jockey in the country
He is introduced under this guise. The
girl insists he shall ride her entry which
is stolen on the eve of the race by the
butler who desires TO help Harrington
out OF his difficulties bue he merely
adds to them.

out OF the ring.
The other day, in Chicago, Tommy
appeared before the council committee
which was considering boxing bill.
He had been requested to present his
ideas to the body. and while debating
the question Of no-dCcision lights he
mixed up with an alderman who thought
he knew more about tighting than Tom
my did about law making, and started
a scrap which ended with a short left
to the jaw from Tommy, who hasn't
forgotten all he knew.
White was lighting for a bill which
permits decisions. If there is a joke in
the boxing game it is these mo de-

They lead TO moro crookedness and rot

game than anything else. They are an

Which means that we have more hon-

country.
White Counters on Critics.
Tommy and l once had neat little
job. We wanted to get n bill through
the Illinois legislature permitting box
ing. Tommy arranged for 4 conference
with the representatives OF fourteen re-
form organizations, to which we desired
to explain the provisions OF the bill.
. y g.,
men and women-one Of whom knew
something about the boxing game. The
others were frankly ignorant, but ready
to listen.
We explained. Tho point raised was
whether or not boxing is lighting. I
told them frankly that any boxing
which Is not lighting is taking. What
we wanted was honest fighting.
One of the gentlemen questioned Tom
my regarding the alleged brutality OF
lighting.
Mr.. White" he said. els II brutal;

What I mean persisted the Ques-

Politics Killed tho Bill
1t was 4 funny conference. We cN-

er and the writer what boxing Is, and
that all the evils OF boxing come from
promoters and managers and not from
lighters When We adjourned nine Of
the fourteen agreed not TO oppose our
