Jackson. The race at large feels that it is not in any way responsible for the flasco, since Jackson's "west-press" enterprise "one-man夹持" there is a general disposition to sidestep the concern and leave Jackson to "read the wine-press alone," because the wine-larger than a man's hand, that dark spot is nothing to what will be atthwart the horizon when the official reports the "cloud" just spoken of has taken the form of a complaint lodged with the R. E. Jones and William Miller, two of the officers of the "Negro Historical and Industrial Exposition." The gentlemen were supposed to follow the advice given after the money have into sight it is said they were completely ignored by Jack-Kennedy on knives. No meetings of the board were called and Jackson attended to everything in person, giving no account to anyone not taking anyone The plot thickens. It is stated that concerning the occasion, President Wilson, for his information, and a similar statement is to be placed in the hands of the leaders of Congress, the industrial arts and expositions of the houses of Congress. The report lays out the reasons for Congress to be rigidly scrutinized, and the movement inaugurated at Richmond by Dr. Benjamin Franklin with interest. From such signs as there, there is reason to believe that the exposition "exposition" will be its aftermath. The life of an exposition manager is the life of an exposition manager is not 'one grand sweet song.'

WILL INVESTIGATE KILLING OF FRANK GOVERNOR OF GEORGIA SAYS EF FORTEHING THEM TO FUND LYNCHERS. ALL POWER TO BE USED Findings of Cobb County Coroner* of Judgment Mob. Wash. Geriatrics Planned. Special to THE FREEMAN ATLANTA, Ga., Aug. 18—All the legal machinery available to Governor Rick Santorum will bend the men who lynched Leo M. Harris to the ground. Harris so announced today when he came here from Fitzgerald, Ga., where he was given a state Confederate Veteran reunion. "This affair is shocking, and I am going to have it investigated to the governor," Harris. He has not made up his mind exactly what will be done immediately. It is believed much will depend on the governor, and the jury, which adduced to meet Tuesday, after having a short session yesterday. The governor had not decided today whether a reward would be offered for the members of the lynching party. Nothing at Penitentiary. E. L. Rainey, a member of the state prison commission, arrived here today from Milledgeville. With other mem- bers of the commission, he is on a opinion prison farm when Frank was taken away. Like R. E. Davidson, chairman of the commission, he is on a opinion prison farm. He was investigated at the penitentiary. Mr. Davidson left Milledgeville early today for Atlanta. The commission made by R. E. Davidson, chairman of the state prison commission, last night, that he did not believe any one could be blamed for conditions in the prison. He said the mob to take Frank from the prison seemed to indicate that the prison fea- ture might not be investigated imme- diately. He was absolutely authority in such matters. Work Planned Carefully. The mob had planned its work carefully and acted so quietly that Millegville. Marietta rapidly assumed its normal police after Frank's body had been taken from town and brought to Atlanta. Here immediate interest in the case ended when the body, accompanied by a last midnight was started on its way to Brooklyn, the home of Frank's parents. Fitzgerald yesterdays Governor Harris was instituting a thorough investigation. He ordered his office here to inform the police that Marietta is situated, that he would expect him to make a detailed inquiry into the lynchings. The Cobb county police yesterday, at which they authorized Coroner John A Booth to employ extra counsel in his work on the coroner, impaled yesterday, heard only two witnesses. By them the identity of the body was estab- Those who today studied more close- ly to the past, are convinced that a few gdvilley, are convinced that a few members were in the vicinity of the town before the main party arrived. Not the First Attempt? It must have taken some time to cut the lines of communication in which it was done. None of the automobiles bearing the lynchers was seen until they approached the building, believing plans similar to those which were successful Monday night, were frustrated a month later. The militia was ordered to hold itself ready to proceed to the state prison. As far as genetics were concerned, no battle attack the prison were no more persistent than they had been for some time. Prison officials never said they would be held ready. It was intimated at Marietta that there had been a "leak." All Carefully Arranged. Those who tried to follow the decoy automobile which carried the part of the car that was on the demonstration took place, said today that these plans had been carefully arranged, which made trailing easy and after the machine had crossed the bridge over Little River, the chains had been tightened to follow the car. Although nearly every town between Route 64 and Merletta over any route the mob might have taken, had been communicated with police, they had seen the several automobiles proceeding toward the lynching scene. He lives within a short distance of where Frank was arrested. PROMINENT VISITORS HERE- COMING FROM ALL SECTIONS. HARRISBURG (ILL.) NEWS. The fifty years of freedom were celebrated at the A. M. E.

Old Do- minion St, South Richmond, came walking fast, climbed upon my demon- stration platform and said: “I come to congratulate you on what your cup did for my wife, who has had the rheu- matism in her leg one year and when she would lift {t up she would holler with pain. I carried her a cup last night. She drank out of it. On my return from work this afternoon, she ‘kicked at me with that same mb, 1 sald, ‘What Js this you are doing now?” I was never more surprised in my life. She sald, ‘All my misery is gone.’ ‘Mr. Willie Rawlins, 2114 Bainbridge St., sald to me: “My mother had not walked any in eight months, suffering with her back, stomach and limbs. I have tried many remedies, but nothing seemed to relieve her. I carried her a cup four or five days ago, Now my mother is up and can get out all right and 1s walking around. I am letting the world know what the cup is doing, for I believe it would be equal to a crime if the wonders the cup is doing are kept secret.” I believe I have recetved nearly a hundred thousand testimonials during the eleven years since I invented the cup. ‘Sick people, get busy, Today it may be inconvient for you to come and see me, but the cup will do you just as much good as it will be only a question of a few hours for you to receive one by parcel post, when you order by mail, with all instructions. ‘Address all orders to R.

KNOX, PUEILISHER AND MANAGING EDITOR, ELWOOD C. KNOX, BUSINESS MANAGER. SATURDAY, AUGUST 21, 1915. Don't burn in effigy for fear of getting the real thing. The real thing can come quickly enough without reminders. Our race should shudder at the thought of burning even in mimicry. The Austria-Hungarian government will have no reason to misunderstand what the United States had to say to it. Our note was not only simple, straightforward, strong—we told it to them in various ways. Our Washington correspondent, R. W. Thompson, is doing duty at Boston this week. It is needless to say that he is at his heart's delight. Look out for some good breezy intelligence right from the "field." Two big shows on this week. The Knights of Pythias are having their encampment at Columbus, Ohio, and the National Negro Business League is holding forth at Boston. If they could manage to make their future dates a week or so apart it will prove helpful to both of the meetings. Whatever may be said of Alex E. Manning's chances for Recorder of Deeds at Washington, D. C., it will not be said that he is not a consistent Democrat. When we of this state think of Negro Democracy we at one think of Mr. Manning. At no time has he flagged in his zeal for his party. He has stood by its leaders, dividing in sentiment only as Democrats or Republicans do at times among themselves. He may not have cared for free silver, but he was a Democrat. We can not question the money question. We mention this as an example of a possible difference he could have had with his party. If faithfulness and party service will settle the candidacy for the place, Mr. Manning is good as selected. Such a Summer, and it is about gone; no chance to redeem itself. It has been a blessing to the health of town people. There was a slump at Cherryvale, the cooling port for warm babies. But the farmers say that the ground is getting cold, and it is yet full of good things. The sun is lacking in its erstwhile fervid kiss that causes the fruits' best blush. August is known for its hot days and cold nights, the very epitome of love, when nature is teased to respond in full—now hot, now cold, then hot again. Oh, everything is symbolized on earth long before we reach it. All the processes of life are in the open. We are wrapped up in the world's cosmogony, replicas of its stupendous manifestations, and whose metes and bounds are universality. Goin' some, eh? The United States, in reply to Austria-Hungary, hit the bull's eye at every crack. That government insisted that, as a neutral country, the United States should not sell war munitions to belligerents. The Austria-Hungary note was influenced by the fact that the Teutonic allies were unable to make similar purchases because of the effectual British blockade. Our country makes a point that is so blunt and plain that it is humorous. It tells the complaining government that it has the same right to make purchases as England, saying practically, if you want those things, come on and get them. Mr. Lansing or the President, we dare say, could not resist the temptation to poke a little fun in at the expense of Austria-Hungary. That country knows very well why it does not make the purchases, and so does most everyone else. It will never do for the great base ball leaders to stand apart. It is generally the way, when men get way up in affairs, then they begin to get at loggerheads. Rube Foster and C. I. Taylor are undisputed base ball men, base ball leaders. They need one another as a baby needs its mother. The game is in its infancy, just taking form in the sense that it should be. Leagues and circuits which were so imaginative a few years ago are no longer dreams. The day of much better things for base ball players at hand, base ball needs Chicago and Chicago needs Indianapolis. These two cities are rapidly becoming the greatest base ball cities for the colored players. Of course Foster has great Chicago to draw on, and possibly he can be stiff and independent, but just the same he needs support from the outside. Chicago wishes to see Indianapolis and Indianapolis wishes to see Chicago. We advise that these gentlemen get together for the good of the game. It is no personal affair—the public in base ball and not so much in distance. There are reasons, one would think, for the two men to express themselves: this being done, the white flag ought to be run up, or they should submit differences to a board of arbitration, or something. Any old thing that means the promotion of the game's interest. BISHOP WALTERS IN THE CITY. Bishop Walters, of the A. M. E. Zion church, was in the city last Sunday and Monday. He occupied the unpilat at Jones Chapel at the differ- ent Sunday services when he spoke to large and appreciative audiences. The unusual downpour of rain prevented many of his admirers from hearing him Monday night when he lectured at that church. However, he was greeted by a number of representative persons who braved the storm to come out and hear him. He touched to the lecturer. He touched to the Negroes' political attitude, still insisting that they stand on the questions of the times as other citizens stand. He gave it out that he was still in the ranks of the Democratic party, and because he could do most there. He holds it a very good thing for classes of men to have a friend at court. In our condition he finds it especially true. The heavy hand of opposition is often stayed by kindly interference. The night the distinguished prelate, during the day, spent considerable time in company with George L. Knox and others in seeing the city in an automobile. The bishop is still working on the candidacy of Alex E. Manning for Recorder of Deeds at Washington, D. C. He is also in charge of Nerro in the country for the place. IN AMUSEMENT PLACES. Complaint is heard, at times, from various places of amusement controlled by the colored people. These complaints come from the colored people themselves, and which is a very good thing. We say a very good thing, yet it is a bad thing because conditions are very bad when we find it necessary to make charges that reflect on the race. It is said that Federal Park is the scene of ugly happenings the Sundays during the ball games. There is a certain amount of bolsterousness that go with a base ball game. The fans must give vent to their feelings, but it is not necessary for fellows to strut around with money between their fingers like a circus ticket-seller for the purpose of betting. This sort of a thing calls often for heated arguments when the men forget and swear, or don't care if they do swear and use ugly language. This is done in the presence of women, girls and young boys. All of this is demoralizing; besides it gets the race a reputation for inviolency—bad manners—which is charged up and presented when our people show up for admittance to the better places controlled by white people. In the picture show houses, too, there is a tendency to roughness, mostly, however, by half-grown boys who are defiant in what they do. These rough houses are not always—not every night, but too often for our good. Absolute quiet is not to be expected in picture houses. Sometimes there is a low murmur of indifference in the individuals are trying to get the best out of the pictures. But when persons turn around in their seats and yell to their neighbors about something else altogether it is very bad. We are not trying to prescribe a course of conduct for patrons of picture houses. We do think, however, that it would be safe to act just as they do in the picture houses of white patrons, or as they do in the better class theatres. Of course, it is not expected that there will be that utter refinement, but it is well to keep in sight. It begins to appear that there is something in the proposition that Negroes are软弱 to themselves they will develop traits that do not tend to advance them in civilization. The base ball park, the theatres and other places of assembling are the tests. It has been said that it is enough that white people should be pointing out faults and condemning without the members of the race doing so. The complaints should come from the race. It means a consciousness of poor manners. The Germans have an old saying about some one who went through the land with his hat and trousers, and who considered for others, and not that the hat should be off the head when it was not customary. What we do is being noted, and we don't seem to care very much if it is. But when we are barred from places we are apt to think it is wholly on account of color. Color has something to do with it. Conduct people in a way that we do with it. Unless we are as other people we need not be surprised when we are turned down at the gates of their amusement places. OUR DUTY. Some of our race journals are insisting that it would be better for the United States to be looking sharply after the interests of its Negro citizens rather than trying to whip Mexico into line. We think this a narrow view to entertain at this time. None of us forget our own sufferings in this country, yet we can conceive of happenings, owing to which, what we endure becomes a secondary consideration. The United States is our country in spite of what it permits to be done to us. Really, we should not think of the country, of the government, as a thing foreign or apart from us. Such a condition savors more of a monarchy than a republic. Even in a first-class monarchy, like England, the people insist that they and the government are one, and not that the government is an absolute something where the will of one or a very few is the law of the land. This being true in the better class monarchy, the people are publics where the government is a reflex of the people. We are a part of the people and consequently a part of the government. In the practice we are denied many of the things, privileges and considerations that are enjoyed by other. And this is not wholly true. We enjoy everything, practically. We are shoved aside, too often, to enjoy these things by ourselves. That's the front of this country's offending. This is serious enough and wrong, but not so serious as to put us out of the chorus of concord for the good of the general nation. We do suffer otherwise incidentally. Now and then a Negro is lynched, while serious enough and wrong the happenings must not outweigh the known good that comes to us through the government are owing to its existence. It is our duty to continually remind our country of its indifference in looking out for us. It is our duty to condemn all lawlessness, whether white or colored people are the victims. But in preaching against them, we must protect ourselves beyond protection. For as neglected as we are, our condition could be much worse. We do not advance this to temperize with wrong-doing. We mean to say that the wrongs are not so great as to compel us to turn our THE FREEMAN AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER backs on the country when in distress. To repudiate one's country means very much, more, we fear, than those think who do so. We also wish that our citizenship standing was higher; we wish that the many contemptuous things the Negroes know were not as they are. But through it all we wish to feel the patriot's thrill when old glory goes mounting up the skies, just as others feel. We wish to be figured in when the great speakers standing before the great crowds says, "Fellow Citizens." And we think most of our race has some such feeling. But the observers will not think so if are neglected in speech as it concedes to us. We are honestly anxious to see the affairs of Mexico straightened out, nor do we begrudge the effort our country is making to straighten them out, even if scant consideration is shown us. Our right to full consideration rests largely, rightfully, in our loyalty to the country. LEO FRANK. It is plain to see that there was a very malignant spirit in Georgia as it concerns Leo Frank. Whether it was based on righteousness or malice gets past our understanding, and perhaps past the understanding of most persons. That Frank was a Jew had something to do with making the unusual case. And we are not so sure that we are justified in saying so much as that, because there has been no pronounced demonstration in this country against that race. We have seen that the ways been an undercurrent against them, much like that known in Europe, but not nearly so pronounced. The very unusual circumstances of the murder would have made for national notoriety regardless of the race. This due to the position of the two persons. Frank was well to do and well connected, while the victim was a poor girl, and through the relationship of employer and employee could easily have been at his mercy. We merely restate the situations as they were thought to have been by a part of the public. There is no reason to think guiltiness on Frank's part was conclusively established. It was case of the one of man-mistress of the other. The Negro and Frank were the disputants. But there was circumstantial evidence against the white man—motive and so-forth—that had weight with the jurors. Now and then there are cases when individuals are the victims of circumstances, when they are so clutched in the toils where they alone know the truth, but which truth, if told, seems so absurd that it is best for the time to be crushed down by a lie. The picture plays shows this nicely, very often. And what is brought out there happens in life, very often. Of course the per cent. of such happenings is so small as compared with those rightfully apprehended and held, that judge and jury are forced to decide the mode of being governed by the evidence that is presented, whether it be circumstantial or gained of undoubted witnesses. We are not saying the Frank case was one of those freak cases where innocence looked like guilt. It is possible that they know what they are doing down in Georgia, so far as declaring the man innocent or guilty, or that they know of dealing with him could not be endorsed by those who have the welfare of the people and the country, as an institution, at heart. The Negroes, especially, can not afford to be indifferent to the happening; it is a reminder of a phase of their own civil entourage through these times. What happened to Frank, in a way, was of a more malignant nature than what they have experienced. This is one of the very few times, if not the only one, in the history of the country that a mob has entered a prison for its victim. It has broken jails, and it has done everything else in the category of mean things, even to burning; but invading a prison and disturbing a man resting under a life sentence, is the man malignancy. But Frank was but one of our race has contributed scores, hundreds; shall we say thousands? Yes, thousands since the close of the Civil war, contributed for the appeasement of capricious lawlessness. There is not much more to be said by way of condemnation. For the years our race leaders have preached against the mob. White men have preached against it, saying that the spirit would become contagious, rampant, and in consequence we would be beset with the evil, when men would easily and readily rise above the law, become a law unto themselves, resulting in the enfeeblement of the total fabric of jurisprudence the foundation of the greater society—the state. We have reached a very interesting and dangerous stage in the development. COLERIDGE-TAYLOR'S FAMILY. We recently saw a note to the effect that the British government has provided a pension of $1,000 to the wife of the late Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, $100 to his mother, and $200 to each of his children until they reach the age of 21. It is to be hoped that the information is true. When the distinguished composer died the financial condition of his family was made known in this country, and with the purpose in view of moving on the sympathies of his many admirers, this publication at once called attention to the Bureau of Justice, say its efforts in the composer's behalf met no response. This was disappointing, in view of the great love we had shown, or pretended to have shown, for the man and his works before he died. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor will be remembered for his "Hiawatha," based on "Hiawatha," Longtellow's masterful poem. The composer never lived in America, but seemingly he was stirred by the great story of the aborigines, he himself being one, having been born in Africa. It appears that he wished to do something that was racial—as far as he could produce it—with the hopes of general acceptance. He composed some songs based on the few tones that might be considered purely African—those of his own home. But here was monotony—nothing to do with his largely capacious soul, and which had drank to its fill of the best of European masters. He wished to do something in keeping with the long line of the illustrious whose works had greatly illuminated his own mind and soul. He had the capacity—natively, the environment did the rest. His biography tells of his splendid achievement in his adopted country He had no such thing as the color or race problem with which to contend. He moved among the London musical elites with the utmost freedom. He produced in the same sense that Wagner or Handel produced, big pieces, as they are commonly called, and which were conducted by him in the largest auditoriums. He conducted choruses of hundreds of voices, sometimes thousands, every member of which were white. He wielded the baton, and white musicians and white singers considered it an opportunity to be a part of his grand concerts He will be remembered in Washington, D. C., where he conducted his masterpiece, "Hiwatha." About the same time his piano compositions were seen on the better glass musical programs throughout this country, and he was honored him and honored him by mention and by publishing his pieces. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, as a Negro, we think, had more distinction than known to any other member of the race. The Dumas of France were of Negro extraction, but at no time have they been considered Negroes in the sense that Coleridge-Taylor was considered. Tanner, our own painter, somewhat approaches him. But for complete loss of identity and self-esteem, the greater delicacy of the world, the honor belongs to the English Negro composer. Had he lived in America, we think, it would not have been so. And yet we have not had the test. America, or any other portion of the world, has produced no Negro of such eminence in any field of endeavor. But few of his race variety in this country have a conception of what he was. Those who know him at his worth are the greater music teachers of the race. The great following can not know him any more than the great masses can be something of a music riddle, the master minds of the musical world, and Coleridge Taylor was in his class. Knowing what he was in the general world of music is why we regret so much that we of this country "paid him no mind." We know of no better way to put ti; he was "paid no mind" when it was known that he left his family so poorly provided for. We will not underate him when knew that the British monarch has been the British monarch's family. Governments are not in the habit of pensioning persons of no consequence. We lost an opportunity.

Cs yesterday at Federal Park, in the first five games to decide the league. The Cubs defeated the States. The game was a pitcher's battle between Redding and "Decta" Johnson, both hurlers being in great form. The Cubs fanned eleven of the local champs, three punching the ozone in the ninth. Both teams did some sensational play, but the Cubs being the star of the day, the center field hit at the local aggregation having eight pouts to his credit, two of them sensational hits.

DeMoss, Powell and Pierce hit for home runs in Tuesday's game. In the meantime, Hutchinson is holding down the third sack nicely. It now stands two and one in favor of the Stars. A double-header Sunday at Federal Park. Sunday's game was a pitcher's battle from start to finish, the A's making four hits and the Stars made five. Clark's error in the eighth inning of Sunday's game beat the A's. There were forty-eight hits made in the three games. The Lincoln made twenty-eight of them, and the A's made twenty. It's a blessing that the locals made those six runs off Wade, because they could not see those shoots and slants that Harvey offered. Todd Allen is out of the game with a broken thumb thought that it will be a good while before he will play again, unless the digit heals very rapidly. Charleston was the fielding star in both Sunday and Monday games, day he had eight putouts to his credit, playing that center field for all there is in it. The Black Sox, who were scheduled to be arrived in town, but the management of the Lincoln Star will play a double header at Federal Park. Jack Watts, who was击杀 for the American Giants, is in town for it is also a pugilist, and has given up the ring. He is contemplating fighting in Cheyenne, Wyo., Labor Day. The way some of the fellows acted. Sunday was a disgrace to colored bases. The manager, Mr. Bower made the announcement that they were several plain clothes officers in the town, and if there was any betting, the converse lay themselves to arrest. Converse was not so much noise, and several ladies themselves as feeling much safer. A. B. C.'S WIN. Lincoln.....0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1 2 A. B.

MEMPHIS, Tenn.—Lee Johnson's iron man stunt at the Phoenix Moonhill Brooks in the first half of the attempt and a draw with Fast Black in the second half of the attempt. Brooks would have been a sleeping beauty. This was the first time that Memphis fans had seen one entry in the game. But Johnson filled the bill in every particular. He had Brooks wobbly as as the face and nose almost out of the ring with a flying jab that carried his face and nose almost out of the ring with a flying jab that carried his face and nose almost out of the jab connected Brooks went back in space anywhere from three to five feet. At the end his lips were cut bully and Black Next. Fast Black was brought on at this juncture and looked extremely good, and easily as Johnson made no attempt to fight. Nothing sensational happened until third, when Johnson started coming. He had been holding back until this time, and the top form in the fourth. Before the latter round was half over Black was as a jumper. kitten, groggy and feeble. Johnson would not have hurt matters, but had Lloyd started his attack earlier in the second half, there would not have any doubt as to where the laud belonged. Black was sick all day and fought on STAGE GOSSIP J.B. DAVIDSON STAGE NOTES. Frank Montgomery's letter of explanation ought to settle it as to what really did the authority, hence the final word.

We think the writer never prosper. We think the writer should reconsider the fact that he himself has made some false steps in life. Rud Dudley wrote in his two weeks' letters, but sent Miss A. Hicks to Louisville, who afterwards forwarded a telegram: "Come at once, we shall be here." In writing the same position he now holds, the writer was advanced money, who departed with trunks unknown by the writer, but all in life. The get-a-way may be for the better any way.

THE GREAT EASTERN STOCK COMPANY Having Second Week of Success at the New Crown Garden, Indianapolis —H. Drake, Ethel Walker, Clifford Drake, Porter and Porter Give Class to the Show—Tim E. Owlesy, Mgr. The Great Eastern Stock Company, under the management of H. Drake, is having their second successful week at the company. The company offers an attractive little skit which is full of happy situations and which is cared for to great advantage by the principal members of the company. The let is "The Wrong Cook and Waiter." The scene is a cafe where there is a cabaret feature, and by six of the members is the introduction. These were nicely costumed, and were appreciated of their pleasing melodies. Master of the flute with his singing and clever dancing, H. Drake appeared in a new role—Davis, who is now enough to please the most exacting Castilian. He sang "Porto Rico" and Monterey, he is now supported by a chauvinist big. He was the most big. Miss Wade was successful in singing "Under the Sheltering Palms" and Monterey was the most bonist, was good in his number. "There a Little Spot in Ireland," she sang "Rebecca Sunny Brook Farm." This was a particularly attractive number. Miss Monterey was considerably attention. She has an attractive personality which together her splendid costumes and pleasing shaping she has made a fine stage figure. In her recall she sang "Hello Mistah Moon." She met with the hands as they made their first appearance, a pretty good sign of their pop- H. Drake was the "it" in the cafe where he worked, and his other of the company. His comedy is of the best order. In fact it is to be doubted if he has a superior in the cafe, but he is one convinced that in some respects he is not only great, but marvelous, and he is a positive one, positively alone. Then his monologue with his buddle as his subject, can't beat a cafe scene was a big hit; but a duel scene has succeeded immensely in what he has been trying to do—the many-sided H. Drake and satisfactorily good in all of them. RICHARD & PRINGLE'S MIN- STREL'S FERRAND BILLY KERRAND (By Clarence Powell.) loved so well.

Billy King's Players and Harrison Stewart Fill the Grand. Abbie Mitchell Turns People Away at The New Monogram. If the public had to vote on artists, Abbie Mitchell would be way ahead in a sum of subtraction, for there was nothing on Stuart street, where she would be the same beauty of culture and sweetness as it did a few years ago at the American Music Hall, where she selected "My Man Girl," a dream from its flavor, "My Daddy's Lips" and "Scaddle de Mooch," a very attractive rag-time selection. Her reception was great and she was a star, now in p. m. "Mills & Frisby" was an excellent team. Mills is on of ABRIE MITCHELL. the great comedians who used to be with us often a few years ago, and he was a welcome visitor. Miss Frisby was a great singer. Billy De Mont was another good team.

His performances it looks as if they have done nothing but prosper in the vogue of the music world, his voice and knows how to use it; besides this she is a most graceful dancer. Her gown, Lew Kenner, we call him the lassor of the bull, with his rapid fire talk. He lassored the entire audience and stopped him from drawing card that the Globe has offered for some time.

CLARK OF LOUISVILLE, KY Mr. Knox—Just a few remarks to explain the ad that I am sending. Mr. Clark was in my employ as manager. Mr. Clark was in my employ as manager. His name to my correspondence. In the middle of the week of Aug. 1, he asked leave of absence of me which I granted him. I was not sure out that he had gone to Chicago in the interest of "The Ruby" theater, another house of same policy, but under the management of Mr. Clark and him. I had in the meantime heard from authentic parties that the acts that I was expecting to play my house had been switched to the town of downtown, Susie Sutton and Mills & Kluyp. By chance I met one of the ladies coming over on the train and not me. She was a girl, and her did she know that she was not to play my house. The Olivette Theater. The Olivette competition is one of the greatest things when it is done openly and fairly. But I don't believe that this competition covers us. However, they can't hurt me and I am by no means a person to weaken. I am giving the competition shows. Having packed houses nightly, Mr. Clark has gone so far as to have it published that he was managing both houses. This is one of my reasons truly of the lady and because of which makes her a great fan of music. I don't remember just a musical body—rythm in everything she does. And such a person never fails to be a melody made up of war songs. Buster is strong on his eccentric steps especially at the close of his turns. Yelling always follows his A. B. WILLIE PORTER. Buster's sick man stunt was a knockout. He gets off some good jokes including the antidote for curing his ailment. Hanes "Have Some Fun," which was full of fun all right. They close with the very humorous "Wouldn't Work" phrase. "Being." They all through the work. Star Theatre for Rent Thoroughly Renovated.

The following eulogy of the late Billy Kersand, was written by Leigh Mitchell Hodges, one of the greatest tennis players of the 1960s and other byedelphia North American, one of the country's leading white dallies. It was printed on the editorial page and is available on other matters on that page. I know it will be read with pleasure by all colored performers and appreciated by thousands of Billy's friends: William HAND IS DEAD. Unless you're one of the many thousands who laughed till your sides ached under the spell of his fun-making, this simple announcement won't matter. But if you are of these thousands, the news will carry you back to an evening when, to ward off the blues or the sun, you went to the minstrel show and saw and heard Billy Kersand. Maybe a tear will play hide and seek with the smiles and chuckles uninterrupted. You live again those royal hours of fun. Maybe a vision of Mammoth Cave as well as recall Billy's mouth. But of this I’m sure,—you’ll wish Billy Kersand Godspeed on his long, long journey—and you’ll hope to land in the city of the city of the city. For though the preacher never says anything about laughter in the hereafter, we common folks who get our sense of sighs and serious looks in this city of the city of the city, if there isn’t some of this divine commodity in the part to come. Billy Kersand didn’t have to black up before he shuffled onto the stage. Nature gave him a coat of burnt oak and a pair of boots in which there isn’t some of this divine commodity in the part to come. And with the same digging machine she used for the Grand Canyon and the Royal Gorge, Nature excavated in Billy’s face a mouth like the muzzle of a giant Giant-Killer slew the giant Cormoran on St. Michael’s Mount and many a year ago! That mouth have spent years training that mouth, for it was as nimble as the nimbest squirrel that ever looped on a maple tree, an expression, as if he’d lost his last hope of another meal, he shuffle toward the footlights, around lazy-like and then YAWN. Before he finished this particular performance, timid persons would grab hold of the seat handles or ask the And that yawn should be ranked among the great jokes of history—seeing how it made them laugh. During those good old days when negro ministrelsy held high place in the view best of the fast-color variety. He had wit, and knew how to wield it. He had talent plus, and he was the prodigal son's twin when it came to the best of the best, and there, for Billy saved his earnings and left a fortune when he answered the Promper a few weeks ago. During those good old days—why did we ever let them get away from us! For when the movies have melted away your stock of nickles in much the same way as your three-inch stand-up-collar at a tango tea, and you've vaulted through the varied changes in the fashion and the shade of the perennial chooses—the shade of the sheer palms"—you wish you could go down to the opy house and buy a seat for a real old-fashioned chair. They'll come again. They'll have to. People will insist on it. But they'll never bring a better bit of anatomy to the end chair than Billy Kersand. If I were asked to write an epiphath for his tomb, I'd put it down thus: HE MADE MEN LAUGH And I would not ever all For the roads of life aren't macadamized with merriment and the muscles of the body that's not worked—sometimes they grow fably NOTES FROM WOLFSCALE'S BAND. (With Barnum & Bailey Circus). We are now in the state of Wisconsin, the rain continues to follow us. While in Clinton, Iowa, it rained so hard the people coming out of the big show had to get off the lot. One and a half feet of water stood on the lot, which made the rain stop.

Cattio Lodge of Elks, one of the most successful bodies associated with the friendship, have generously consented to let the Smart Set Company conduct their rehearsals in their spacious and beautiful garden, which are necessary for this event.

Kid Asher, well-known as the champion buck and wing dancer of the 1950s, has been named of Philadelphia. He has often been commended for efficient service. The illness of his wife induced Mr. Asher to leave the profession of which he was a conscious figure. George Cadwell is one of the leading dancers in Philadelphia force. He is well known to the profession and is a great favorite with the boys and girls, especially the girls. Irvin C.

Jolly John Larkins, one of our best known comedians, composers and producers, has been signed to appear in the play one of Mr. Gus Hill's white companies. There has been no better act produced at the Standard this season than Peyton, in their original creation, "The Peyton," There is special scenery with appropriate settings. The songs are excellent and well rendered, every word was written with a well well danced in every part of the large auditorium. The dialogue is bright and snappy. The principal, Copeland and are too well known, comment upon their abilities as performers necessary. Sufficient to say that all are well known, lives. We need more good, clean, wholesome and original acts like that of Copeland and Peyton. The Billy B. Johnson Tri burst upon the scene with a veritable cloud burst of merriment, music, song and dance. Their act was clean through. They are entertainers par excellent. Hester Moore was held over for another week. She is a Philadelphia favorite. Billy Walker of the team of Murphy and Walker, with Sattel, presented a comedy duo that was really funny. Billy is a genuine comedian and sang; At All, in imitable style. His partner did some very good dancing. Sheftel and his Eight Black Dots presented a very good singing and dancing act. Bo Allen a Philadelphia boy, did commendable work with the company. The singing of Mr. Sheftel and partner was away from the orileid while the entire act was thoroughly also Bectrex Johnson and Fanny Wise.

Few, if any, of the present-day minstrels were early minstrels were strollers, and tramped the road in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. They men and die, but possessed a train faculty of composition and at least a knowledge of horse or mule training, mingled with their host on fair equal terms and did not disdain to take their reward of horse or mule training or an army former. A distinction grew up in time between the protected minstrels of the court minstrels of horse and their vagrant brethren of the road. Blowdle de Nesle, the favorite minstrel of his master was made prisoner in Germany (on his return from the third crusade), strolled from place to place and the discoverer Richard's place of imprisonment, and from which the king was held. The palmy days of minstrels were the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and the thirteenth century witnessed the complete break up of minstrels in its THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER mediaca form.

(By Billy Lewis.) An individual may be as wise as Socrates, but if no one knows it beyond himself, or we know it beyond him, or we stupid as Dionyke so far, the general public is concerned. What one has to say increases in value in proposition, and in the public estimation. Nor is that proposition airtight, for men do some things that cause others to do them to stand out—to command attention, to influence, to soothe, to field. And if venture the assertion that this is particularly true because here is represented the elements of a thing which many think can be wholly eliminated. It sounds vain and able to insist that the element in it is the thing which many think can be seen nearer the truth than otherwise, and such being the case we will not escape the rumors of war set at rest the theory that there can come a time when the lion and the elephant, or the rams of suther's a disguise that we of this day know nothing of. Sport contests are mimicry of the real thing, and seemingly ap- perform. Whether the philosophy extracted is sound or not, it can not be denied that the sport captains next to the real captains in war combat are more confident. True enough there is undeniable tinsel and unsubstantial greatness. When speaking of them they are more confident than the sportsman. This is especially true of the pugilist, who seldom make the front pages of the better class Journals, no matter what they may make the thousand compositions concerned that they do than about many others that are seen on the front pages. The real serious part is that the sport captains give their compositions in life. Effort has always been made by some people, some journals, to pass the sport business up with scorn, but as long as 90 per cent. stick. So many as 90 per cent. are not howling derivies by way of sport admiration, but they, at least, keep tahmud the greater happen. They will not glance at the head of the baseball club's column to see if his flag is still there. "Then raised a mountain where his buried." But what mockery, a monument to a palace that mocked the own the bread he ate. This was in Boston, I think. The statue of Dixon was recently pulled down—psychologically it was an atroction. Napoleon Bonaparte, the French state of exile, shut up as a beast in a menagerie, who met curiosity's eyes with his own unwilling gaze. He was a Jesus Christ that Jesus Christ had his cross, and Lucifer fell to hell. No middle ground for the very great; they must stay high up like mountain peaks or he their counterpart in the sea's The fall is not always so materially great as Dixon's fall. The falling ones, like falling meteors, pass so thoroughly is this known and so thoroughly is this condition despised that men are always trying to escapade, to plunge into the plains, baseball players, walkers, runners, and most every one else who loses caste, try to come back. They get the feeling that they think that they can come back. The baffled and beaten politician pilgrimages to new and inconsequent places, the Salt Lake City buffalo and beaten sports are gathered to the sports' geheme by Charon, the ferryman, where in either case they are held in a rehearsal. Perhaps the keenest suffering come to those who have been thrust from their homes, to be beaten and hamenting the possible capture of his wife, puts it nicely when he says: "I see thee trembling, weeping captive led! In argo looms our battles to design; and woes of which so large a part was to bear the victor's hard commands, or bring the weight of waters from Hyperia's power." There, while you goon beneath the load of life, They cry, "Behold the mighty Hector's wife" neath them were the wrecks and strays, hulks, that now merely fester in the waters and the mornings. To win was an open sesame to most of the things the world calls good. I crested the sweet voice of applause as the sound of the siren's and sometimes fatal as well. Johnson is more of an illustration of the man who did not have time than Willard. He strided the mountain of skulls with somewhat of regularity, and colored one who did not have time similar to the Gordon knot; he cut it, doing the unusual, the usual being the slow asleep of a man who failed. He did not fall in striding over men, for when he topped Johnson, he topped those summed up in the rule's regularity only in observing the rule's regularity. WHAT'S DOING IN SPORT.

Two other thoroughbreds, Brotherton and Maybud, winner of the Nottingham stakes, were consignor to Harry S. Page, a owner of race horses. JESS WILLARD TELLS HOW HE DID IT—HIS SUCCESS DUE TO TEMPERANCE—GETS $26,000 FOR TELLING THE STORY. It Tells How I Won the Championship as a Teetotaler; How I Came to Be a Fighter; How All My Life Has Been a Period of Training, Through Clean, Wholesome Living, for the Goal I Have Won—the Championship, Which Stands for Physical Fitness. JESS WILLARD (Copyright, 1915, by A. Merritt. All rights reserved.) I get less than $7,000 for whipping Jack Johnson. I am getting $26,000 in one lump for being a teetotaler. The team representative told me initially that they were buying my story because I had never tasted whisky. And I been a drinking man they would not have bought it at any price. If I needed proof that it pays to keep away from saloons, this contract would have apart from the fact that I was able to thrash Johnson without much trouble because I had not poisoned myself, drinking from a drunken champion in one of a drunken champion gives me $26,000 at the very start. There are thousands of men who have been big sums for the same good reason. To tell the truth, temperance has been the boss thing, life, life, life. To me, win the championship, but it was the chief reason I took up fighting as a business. A lot of people think that my success is due to luck. There isn't any such thing. Good luck is another name for staying on the job, and hard luck is another name. It took me six months to decide to be a fighter. When the idea first came to me, I was 24 years old, good and I had a wife and children. Even if I had been without common sense, my duty to my family would have kept me from jumping into a game where I had no chance to. To begin with, I figured that my height, weight and strength gave my natural ability to jump. Then there was my speed, for in spite of my size I could run like a deer and there never was an Indian that could show you how to jump. I put down the good solid fact that I had never touched a drop of whisky in my life, never smoked and never ever been hearty, lungs and arms would never go away and that I had the staying powers of a buffalo bull. All that I needed was boxing skill. Could I manage it and cleverly six inches, full use of my six feet six inches, my long arms and my speed? wasn't a fool, and my brain had never been dulled by whisky and tobacco. When I made up my mind at last that I had a chance, it was the championship I headed for. I figured that I might at least win. But the little, it does not take THE FREEMAN, AN ILLUSTRATED COLORED NEWSPAPER any more trouble and a fellow bucks up more when the job's big. "Champion of the world." He picked up the baskets, ate and slept with those words ringing before me like some old bell in the dark. They kept my courage up when every laugh I heard the lights out of the white jokes; they made me peg away when I had sent my last dollar home to my wife and the babies and did not have the price of a bed. I was a slave to Havana as confident as though I was putting on the gloves with a trainer. "Champion of the world!" I took the baskets and a stepping stone. When I lost one I worked harder. When I won one I worked harder still. In the days of my job, I began to go back when he started to feeling that he was "good." As early in the third round in the Johnson fight knew that my dream was true. His most terrific joins to my heart and jaw didn't daze me or fog my eyes for the slightest second. He took me to make me breathe a bit faster. It seemed to me that I could go a hundred rounds without losing my wind or my strength. He was calling on his reserves from the start. Not that he hadn't trained, for he had. But all the training in the house was his body life that a fellow man do by himself. Training isn't a matter of a few weeks with sparring partners. It's the business of life that a fellow man do by himself. Poor Jack! I was actually sorry for him in the ring. Better than anyone upon it, till it came upon, and, as his heart and lungs went back on him more and more, I reckon he was wishing for the old steward days before he learned the price of wood. I was sorrier for him still lon the day I sailed. I had gone down into my stateroom when Jon Jones came in on the deck and was on the deck and went to see me. I went up at once and walked over to him. We talked a while, wishing for him to hold out his hand to say good-bye. Just then he looked up at the American flag floating from the mast, and the great "You're goin' home," he said. "Back to God's country. And I can't. It is tough. Mistah Willard is certainly tough. He captured the boards with a splint." "They told me you never took a drink or smoked, and I put you down for a boo. Reckon was a wager wagon boy. Only wish I had." Without another word he walked cautiously and never seen a lonelier figure than that darky turning his back on the country where he was born. For her devil! He fought his last fight gamely and cleanly, for even when he knew that defeat was certain he tried no foul nor did he let out a single word. I didn't get much punishment during the fight itself. I felt like I got caught in the ring like a cloudburst. They slapped me on my bare back until it blistered my screeching feet. I got clamped to feet. Knives were pulled out and in a flash every inch of the canvas and ropes was cut up and carried away for so many of my championship found me al dulver. As if the crowd wasn't bad enough, the feet were thrown them away in his excitement, and then a bunch of Cubans started in to kiss me. That may be a custom down there, but not in The soldiers finally made a lane for me with their drawn swords, and the race track starter loaned me within six inches of my shoe tops. I had to crawl out of a window to get away, and for ten minutes I rode through back to the hall, crowds! I moved about me on the streets, in trains, in hotels, and even when I took a room on the top floor they hunted me out and down, and I have had my patrol stolen for souvenirs, four suits have been torn to pieces, and when I go into a barber shop to get my hair cut there are folks silly enough to pick but I couldn't make it out at first. I seemed crazy. Now I think I see. I because the fighter, more than the physical fitness. Every boy at some time or other wants to be a champion runner, a great ball player, a famous athlete or a champion, but they eat too much, drink too much and think more of making money than to do anything. But still keep their boyhood dreams, and when they carry on over professional athletes it's because they remember that the preachers want to end prize fighting they can do it very easily. Just have boxing taught to them. When everybody is going to make some sort of regulation for weekly drills that will keep men in proper condition. When everybody is going to point in paying to see two men. When all men are physically fit they won't be so crazy over pro sports around me now look like the had pillows under their vests, and nine out of ten are always asking me to take a Drinking has done more than kill prize fighters. It has made the profession disreputable. Many of the business do things I wouldn't do. Pigeon shootings make me sick with its cruelty. The fighter who fouls doesn' last, most. Football is all right if it is played right, yet there are games when eleven men deliberately try to cripple one man. Football is all right if it means fight when matches are made for me, and if those matches are made in States where no law will be broken. The game depends upon hanging around saloons, buying drinks or letting drinks be bought for me, then I will have to be in the wisky's graveyard of champions. PEERLESS TWIRLER THINKS HE WILL OVERLOAD LOSS OF SPEED PITTSBURGH.—Fans are enough interested in me to write and ask whether I think I am at the end of my days. I think I am at the end of my days. Leaguers are optimists when it comes to a question of age. And they are more sensitive about this than an unquestioned fan. I don't think this will be my last season in the big league "spangles." Can't a man, who has been working at it for fifteen years have an off summer one, while? My arm has not been right since I injured it on the spring training trip to the gym. I had a handball and a form of rheumatism settled in it and in the muscles or nerves of my neck. As long as I could throw it every time I raised it to throw the ball a jumping pain shot through the wing and through the neck, I felt relief in the arm by a treatment of boiling it out, and the hot weather has helped it, too, but the neck still bothered. You didn't have much speed last season, but that fast ball of yours was the best of glass or a Federal League contract bow, shouted at me one day. It was then I realized I had not fast enough, and the fast which was effective, and I began to study to see why. The reason dodged me, and so I have been trying to win the game, but the known weakness of a batter. But a twirler goes into that box under a big speed, because he has no change of pace, and the hitter knows he will get curves or slow ones, or even simply went around the sensitive circuit. "Old Matty has lost his speed," was whispered from one player to another. "He was a great prize fighter had lost his punch. Any man would willingly fight an opponent who knew the enemy did not pack a punch." "What have you shortened up your stride for this season?" Meyers, the coach, said. "After a game in St. Louis in which I The pain in my neck prevented me from taking that overhead swing with my left hand, and I delivered the ball to the batter, and my stride was cut down as a result. Since Meyers made the suggestion to keep the ball in the air again, and I believe I will soon have back all the speed that my aged wing has lost, and I believe I will soon seasons. My neck is now much better and I can swing my arm back over my head. Is my opinion that I can keep on traveling the big league pace for a few seasons more by lengthening that step in the box. I hope to show a true good pitcher who is short and that my theory is correct and not just a life belt of hope. I believe if several pitchers who are short step they will find they can develop much better fast ball. It has much to do with it, and all the great speed we make that big one—Christy Mathewson.
