loved by scores in and out Of the
profession.
An artist of rare accomplishments,
we cannot help but become enthusi-
astic as we write and recall the days
OF her triumphS, remembering her
wonderful interpretations of roles
which called for acting that left the
illusion of the story TO be told I'M
broken. Then we look to the present
crop of those in her line and the only
lady who today in her work, though
in an entirely different manner,
comes nearest to her is Miss Lottie
Gee, of the "Shuf1lc Along" company.
The many good things being said
Of Lillian Russell today can be said
of our wonderful race artist, Aida
Overton Walker, and the writer takes
particular pride and feels pardonably
honorcd in having known the woman,
who after conquering both Europe
and America, appeared to be slater
when the writer presented her the
following lines in honor of her Porto
Rican act, which in its day created
q sensation:
Green hills, green trees, babbling
brooks;
Land of hidden caves, coy hooks;
Huge, gigantic tropic trees,
Undulating in the breeze;
Bend low meath their luscious
weight, q.
Thy appetite would satiatc.
1t was of Porto Rico we spoke
when Miss Walker saw fit in story
and song to bring closer to the Amer
lean people that tropical country
wrestcd from Spain in the carly days
Of the Spanish-Amcrican war. "Tell
me-" she would ask the writer, "of
this far off isle of the Caribbean Sea
Of which have heard so much" And
with keen delight we would recount
for her the things that attracted us
while travelling in that place Of
"beauteous tropic moon; milk-white
bays and inlets and swarthy sons who
trace their ancestry back to the
Moors whose blood minglcs with that
Of the grandees Of Andulusia---
throughout old and sunny Spain.

Shuttle Along No. Going to
Canada.

Shuttle Along Company Number 2
closed down recently and we under
stand from an authoritative source
that the rights to the production have
been sold to some other white men.
The performers are being appraised Of
what has been done and advised that
it is the plan Of the new owners to
take the show on the road for a long
run, commencing with Canada. They
say that the new owners believe this
company faster than the original, and
of the former if the boys fail to wake
bids fair to put spike in the W heel
up and go on the road before their
own number two show gets ahead of
them and spoil the business.
From Miller, of the Miller-Lyles-
Blake-Sisslc combination, we learn
that the number one company will be
closing down about July 1st to go on
the road. Miller is DESTROYS of giving
his people vacation before hitting
the trail, and am Of the opinion that
all will agree with him after the re-
markable run Of the production.

opinion that they will finish in the

JIM CORBETT'S OPINION OF
DEMPSEY
(Preston News Scrvice.)

New York City, June 1G.-Scatter-
ed throughout the northern section of
the United States one runs across a
sport writer on a few of the white
dailics who is inclined to give q true
and unbiased opinion as regards Jack
Dempsey's refusal to meet the only
logical contender for heavyweight
honors, to-wit, Harry Wills. But sell
dom have we seen one in better
position to have his say than Gen
tleman jim" Corbett, himself Il for
mcr heavyweight of the world.
In spite Of Corbett's stand when
he sat in big jim Jctfrics' corner dur
ing the fight with Jack johnson when
he tried to coach Jelfrics and show
him the way to victory over the won
derful Jack, intelligent colorcd pco-
pie have forgiven him for trying to
inject too much luminosity into his
attitude towards Johnson at the time.
TO be fair, we must admit that it
was natural for Corbett to root for
Jeffries. He is white man and the
whole affair taking on the scmblancc
Of race fight. we can't blame him
for lining up on his own side, even
though the whole thing was damna-
BILE in the extreme and brought about
by white buns Of the North and those
crawling, snakc-like crackers of the
South.
But Johnson, always on the job
with ready wit and the GOODNESS which
has played great part in the sue
cess he gained as fighter, served
his people well in this instance, for
what he said to Corbett at the ring
side is history, and even the most
rabid Negro hatcrs singing ink on
the dailics had to confess that the
black fighter won two brillian battles
on that memorable day at Rcno.-one
a physical fight with the then cham
pion and the other mental victory
with former champion that had
much to do in changing Corbett's
opinion of Jack Johnson as a fighter
from every standpoint of the pugilis-
tic game.
Coming back to present day activi-
ties in the prize ring as it concerns
us, Corbctt took stand in the Sun
day edition of the New York Ameri-
can that must have made Dempsey
vince. He took the biggest Stacker
of the late war to task for his meth
dds in constantly trying to evade a
fight with Wills, and the former
champion let it. be understood in no
uncertain terms that there were quite
n few among his own race who did
not hesitate to admit that Dempsey's
quest in Europe for ham fighter
was induced by his fear Of meeting
with the colored boy.
Corbetts article, which we regret
space will not permit reproduction in
these columns, will do much to help
bring about public sentiment favor
ing 'Wills-Dempsey match, the only
battle which fair-minded sport pro-
motcrs should be ready to admit as
the "battle Of the ages"

SOL BUTLER CONTINUES TO
SHINE.
preston News, Service.)


New York, N. Y, June 16.-Sol
Butler, who attracted the attention
of the world while student at
Dubuque University, has removed to
this city from Chicago. Butler con-
tinues to attract the attention of ath-
lctic experts by his performances,
and from all indications he will soon
be the center of attention in athletic
circles.
Butler is after smashing another
record in the broad jump, and the
experts in this part of the country
are united in the belief that he can
do much better than twenty-three
feet and five inches the next time he
starts. Sol Butler is regarded as one
of the best all-round athletes Of the
race, and will soon be pitted with
that other crack, whom the colored
people of America gave to Harvard
University-Ned Gourdin. These two
boys are shaping up nicely in train
ing and will create some furore at
their next appearance, especially il
they take the mark at the same time
as the white lads would then see in
this combination almost no chance
for the pale face.

Recalling An Old Friend.

The death of Lillian Russell in
Pittsburgh few days ago and the
many tributes paid to her memory
recalls that we too had q wonderful
woman who did much to raise the
standard among our people on the
stage. We have reference to the late
Aida Overton Walker, who reached
the zenith in the theatrical armament
as star in the days when her hus-
band, the late George Walker, with
the late Bert Williams, held the at
tention of thousands with those Won
derful shows written by Alex Rogers
and Jesse Ship. Aida Overton
Walker, like Lillian Russell, for years
before her death devoted a great deal
Of time and money to charity. Aida
Overton Walker did much more than
she will receive credit for. Her
gratituities being handed out with
out the accompaniment of publicity
which surrounds the smallest gift by
many of our so-called society leaders
of today.
Without the slightest attempt at
belittling any Of our present day wo-
men on the stage, think l can safely
say that none have as yet reached
the heights Miss Walker did, and this
is not meant from the standpoint of
an actress only, but in every way,
especially her dealings with the white
interests which always sought to have
her appear in certain productions af-
ter the close Of the Williams and

bearing and grace, her personal
charm and high intelligence carrying

COL. ARTHUR LITTLE URGES

actment of the Dyer anti-lynching

in his letter to Senator Nelson:

umphs, plenty, joy, honor, acclaim,

in soldiers life who serves his
country in war service. found that
the colored man in his individual
character sized up just about the
same as the white man. e. :. :. My
plea, whenever I have chance to
make my plea to the public at large,
is to stop thinking about the colored
race as a problem and to start think
ing honestly about them and treat
ing them as fellow citizens. If this
so-called Dyer anti-lynching bill by
it's enforcement Of laws against
lynching can accomplish even one
step towards the elimination of the
problem idea as applied to the colored
race, it will have served useful part
in the development of our civiliza-
tion."

THEATRICAL CHILLY SAUCE.
(By Romeo, for Preston News
Scrvice.)
The Rush for Broadway.


New York, June 1G.--The rush
for Broadway among theatrical COM
panies is on in earnest. Some weeks
ago when we wrote on this phase of
the theatrical situation we did not
think that in such n short time we
would have occasion to speak again
at length on the matter. Henry
Dreamer and Turner Layton have
just started at the National Winter
Garden with their new show, called
"Strut Miss Lizzie" and while the
Offering is far from measuring up to
expectations, indications are that it
will enjoy fine run at the Garden.
The Garden is located in a section
of New York that will not induce
many col0rcd people to see the show.
We do not think the management will
depend on any patronage from col
ored people, although 4 heroic effort
was made to draw them to see the
show by the Minsky brothers, who
are backing the production with the
idea Of placing it on Broadway.
Jack Goldberg is behind the
Smarter Set Company and trying to
find an opening downtown. AS we
predicted some time ago, the show
now headed by the Whitney Brothers
Gnu StilcN Jump ClcstNS ulu nOC
make the pilgrimage to the Great
White Way on June 9Th, as given
out in the early days when Goldberg
tried to impress the uninitiatcd with
what he could do on the big street;
nor have we seen any steamship of
the Black Star Line taking on bag
gage of the "Jump Steady" aggrega-
ton for Liverpool. Perhaps the fu-
turc will bring forth something worth
while for the members of the Smarter
Set dump Steady Company, who
have struggled long and hcroically to
get Il hearing.
Irwin Miller, brother of Tourney
Miller, Of Shuttle Along fame, arrived
in town y few weeks ago and immcdi-
ately got to work. Now Irwin hasn't
said that he is entered in the race
for Broadway, but he is rchearsing a
new show which he calls "Hurry On"
and as he has had taste Of and en-
joyed Whit of the salubrious breeze
that comes from the theatrical Prom
Used Land when he put OH the ill
fated "Put and Take" at the Town
Hall, we can surmise that Irwin will
be among those up front when the
word is given and the pistol shot rings
out for the big start.

tally They say that "The Flat Be-

pearing, as the producers and au-
thors have not heard a word from

production. This is Il strong rumor
which is gaining ground, and at this

cess in New York, it is reported that
