OLDEST THEATER IN THE UNITED STATES One Hundred Years of Stage Life, Closely Associated with Events in History of Drama; Is Its Record. EDWIN BOOTH' AND HIS SISTER, MRS. McVICKERS. VOL. 23 NO. 44. OLDEST THEATRE THE One Hundred Years of Stair with Events in History One hundred years of the drama—a century of stage life with its galaxies of stars which have had their rising and their setting and its generations of theater-goers who have come and gone—this is the history of the Walnut Street theater of Philadelphia, the oldest and most famous theater in America. A monument to the dramatic glories of the past and an inspiration to the stage of to-day, its walls ring with the echoes of voices which thrilled and swayed the grandfathers and the great-grandfathers of men who are now grown gray. Viewed in the light of its romantic history, its very atmosphere suggests the ghosts of great triumphs of other days. For here the actors whose names have come down the years and most conspicuously in the history of the American stage played before the most brilliant assemblages and scored their greatest successes. Its billboards invited the crowd to see "The Rivals" played while the ships of the new-born republic were battling on the sea with the enemy the colonists had defeated only thirty-odd years before. Heroes of the Indian and Mexican wars came home from battle and sought it out for an hour of recreation, and the news of many a battle spread about its audiences in the rebellion. And so it has come down through the years to the present; and for its somber exterior, massive walls and quant entrances, there is no suggestion of its having been left behind in the rush of the theatrical progress. On the contrary, it prosperts to-day as it did in the past. Its doors are open wide for the throng which comes in EDWIN BOOTH AND HIS the prosalic garb of the twentieth century, even as the same portals admitted the gewigged, bepowdered and beruffled amusement seekers at the dawn of the last century. The great-grandson of the man who a century ago in the lobby offered his snuff-box to a friend in knee breeches now stands on the same spot and hands his cigar or cigarette case to his companion in trousers and a dinner coat. In the early 1880s, a unimpeded season, for it was built in 1808, the Walnut is not only the oldest theater on the continent in point of continuous service, but it bears the remarkable distinction of never having been unoccupied during a season. Its first managers, Paplin & Breschard, had a double purpose for the house—the odd mixture of horsemanship and the stage, for they built a dome upon the structure, put in a horse ring and called it the "New circus arena" for the first two seasons of the show, with an interest, with the balance of attention and popular favor on the side of the riders. In the second season interest in the "circus riding" feature was beginning to wane slightly in favor of the play, so the owners put Dwyer, a comedian of the day, and McKenzie, another favorite actor, in charge as managers. On Jan. 1, 1812, the management decided to begin the new year with an elaborate effort, so they put on Sherdan's "The Rivals." To please the circling element they had a train to the curtain fell on "The Rivals," and then to wipe out the program came an afterpiece entitled "The Poor Soldier." Unquestionably it was the "bile show" of that time. In 1820 Warren & Wood, another theatrical firm, assumed management after the Chestnut Street theater, another Philadelphia playhouse, had been burned. The proprietors further diminished the circus feature by removing the dome and putting in a flat ceiling. The incident of Warren & Wood's management—although it attracted little notice at the time, for the actor's spurs were yet to be won, was the WALNUT STREET THEATR AS IT LOOKED NEARLY 100 YEARS AGO From a rare old print made a few yeas after the famous playhouse opened P. EDWIN FORREST. Who made his debut at the theater as theater writer as Virginia. The great tragidian was seen often in this role, at the famous theater. debut of Edwin Forrest on Nov. 27, 1820. Forrest, who was a native of Philadelphia, had done well in amateur theatricals and his first appearance in Home's "Douglas" was a success, though his fame was not made until six years later, when he played "Othello" in New York. Forrest played to a house which netted $319 at his debut, and later, WALNUT STREET THEATR AS IT From a rare old print made a few ye when he was permitted to act in the customary benefit performance, he played to a $215 audience. The next year, April 9, Edmund Kean was seen for the first time in Adelaide when he was still playing, which still remained the name of Olympia Kean appeared in "Richard III," and SISTER, MRS. McVICKERS. his company included Mrs. Wood and the elder Wheatley, the latter playing the Duke of Norfolk. Despite many violent criticisms Kean drew big houses. Prince & Simpson, managers of the Park theater in New York, got hold of the Olympic in 1822 and made the famous actor "Joe" Cowell resident director. Cowell changed the name of the house to the "Philadelphia theater," and Cowell took Boot to play there in 1826, and theatrical tragedian, like his contemporaries, divided applause with the circus riders. Inslee & Blake, who took the theater in 1828, discarded the circus element and put on a strong dramatic company, but the season was a failure, owing, perhaps, to the absence of the circus riders. Chapman, Greene & Edwards, another form of actor-management, took over the theater, and they took hold of the house in 1829 and organized a company headed by Joseph Jefferson I, William Chapman and "Joe" Cowell. The first LOOKED NEARLY 100 YEARS AGO. rs after the famous playhouse opened. season went splendidly, but the following year brought failure and Chapman went to jail for debt. The next management, Maywood, Rowbotha & Pratt, ran the place from 1831 to 1834. Their most notable performance was to bring out Mallbran, a noted singer of the day, who set the audiences wild with enthusiasm. From 1834 to 1849 Franklin C. Weymans ran the house, and from 1849 to 1856 Dineford & Marshall were the managers. In this period many of the famous comedians of the time were seen at the house, which had become the fashionable theater of the city, situated as it was near the heart of the then magnificent residential district. Sleeper Clarke played there many times in these years before he went to live in Europe Kendrick, mother of Mrs. John Draw, the elder, was also seen on several occasions as "Mrs. Malaprop." Dineford & Marshall turned the place over to Mrs. M. A. Garreston in 1856, but she relinquished her interests to John Sleeper Clarke and Edwin Booth in 1856. Booth was at the height of his fame in these years, and he and the actors of his time who were the leading exponents of Shakespeare filled frequent engagements at the theater, which had now been reopened at Palmetto Street. The John S. Clarke company owners of the house, which had been under the management of Frank Howe, Jr. for many years. The list of actors of more recent years who have been seen at the famous place includes naturally, all who have become famous in tragedy, comedy, or song. Fanny Davenport and Mme. Modjeska were favorites there; Joseph Jefferson played "Rip" and "Bob Acres" many an evening; Richard Mansfield dlg some of his best work in the old house, and Stuart Robson set a happy memory there. Nat Goodwin, E. H. Sohem, W. H. Robson, a host of others, are in the public eye to-day are all included on the programs of the oldest theater in America. BULGING MUSCLES ARE NOW THING OF THE PAST THE FIGHTER JOE GANS, PRIZE RING CHAMPION Whose strong muscles are graceful, but never massive, An old fashioned idea that huge, bulging muscles are essential to athletic prowess is being steadily discarded by the developers of athletic skill to-day. It used to be that the man who would succeed in baseball, football, track and field athletics, rowing, swimming and tennis felt it a first requisite to build up on his shoulders, back, arms, thighs and calves great piles of knotted muscles, and the possessors were proud of such an equipment than a woman of a good figure. But the modern tendency is getting entirely away from this idea. Men like Delaney, Mike Murphy, Muldoon and Coakley, who know how to turn out winners, have discovered that a quantity of muscle can only be gained at the cost of speed, and that except in wrestling, where a man has need of absolute brute strength, the big muscles are more a detriment to the ideal athlete of the future will undoubtedly be the man built on the lines Jim Corbett had when he fought John L. Sullivan fifteen years ago. Never was a greater disparity than between these two men of the old and new school. Sullivan had a wonderful neck, shoulders and arm. Corbett was slender and lithic. No muscle showed on his body when he got into action. His wore long, slender fibers that could not be detected under the neck, which did their work so swiftly and with what they were in a wrestling bout or rough and tumble fight could have crushed "Pompadour Jim" to death, was a child in his hands in a bout governed by the recognized rules of boxing. Kid McCoy offers still a better illustration of the fighter without muscle development, yet who could hit hard enough to knock out men twice his size. McCoy was flat-chested, his arms were thin as pistons, his legs were nothing in point of muscle, and in the knee slipped for the trayr, he would have made him look but for the knowledge held by the public of the terrific hitting force that those puny little arms held. Tommy Ryan, a wonderful fighter, whose sway has extended over fifteen years, and who is still proverbially good enough to take care of any man anywhere near his size, is another case of the boxer who boasts no heavy muscles. Joe Gans, the lightweight champion of the world for many years, shows no more development than the ordinary man out of training, yet a blow from his ebony fist that yukes his eight inches, carries a knock-out message with it. In baseball the tradition is the same. More little men are playing now than ever before. The famous teams of the past were made up almost entirely of big fellows. Anson, Pfeffer, Williamson, Gore, Flint, Kelly, Brouthers, Conner, Thompson, Browning, all famed hitters, were men who towered up to the six-foot mark or close to it, and they were in proportion. Then it was thought that only a big and powerful muscles man could hit the ball hard, but nobody pays any attention to ideas like that. Willie Keeler is one of those who blazed the way for the ball player without prominent muscle development. While the giants with the kind of YANKEE COAKLEY, FRAGILE STAR OF THE BASEBALL: DIAMOND. bodies that the ancient sculptors depicted are warming benches or are out of jobs. Keeler goes along year after year ranking among the leading hitters, and incidentally drawing one of the biggest salaries of any man in baseball. During his long stay with Baltimore, Brooklyn and the New York Americans Keeler has been accounted one of the greatest hitters in baseball history, yet if he got in a fight on the street with an ordinary sized man, the latter would be condemned for punching such an easy mark. Roy Thomas, little, flat-chested, looking as if the hospital was yawning to claim him, is another ball player who proves the theory that muscles alone don't make success. COAKLEY, FRAGILE STAR O They never made a thinner or less developed man than Dr. G. Harry White, the famous southpaw of the Chicago Americans in last year's series for the world's championship, and the slender arm can shoot a ball. G. Harry White, the slender arm can shoot light, and slender as he is, he possesses all the endurance essential to an extra inning battle. In fact he seldom loses a game that goes beyond the regulation nine innings. Recently Roger Bresnahan, on the New York team, was hit in the head and nearly killed by a pitched ball. After he came to, some one asked how it happened. "The ball curved so fast and broke so sharply," he answered, "that I couldn't see it." Yet that ball was delivered by an arm that has not a suggestion of muscle. Andy Coakley, Cincinnati's thinest and weakest looking pitcher, delivered it, and anybody to look at Andy would think him a candidate for the consumptive ward. The same club has a player who weighs only 128 pounds, yet who is making good in great shape. Kane is a player in little to no dimension. Not little and hard, like Kid Gleason, Elberfeld, Dygert or Huggins, for instance, but just little. Without a hint of muscular power this lightweight is able to hold his own, and is really playing a star game for the Reds. Monte Cross of the Athletics is thin that he hardly casts a shadow, yet he has one of the most powerful arms of any man connected with baseball. It is generally conceded that no man in the big leagues throws the ball to first base as hard as he does. It is also fact that the muscles of the legs do not have to stand out like whipcords to make the flyer. A few samples in the various classes will suffice to drive home the point. For all the years he was in college. F THE BASEBALL DIAMOND. Shick of Harvard could show a clean pair of heels to all the intercollegiate fliers in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. He took both these events at every intercollegiate meet at which he competed, and was so good that he scared of competition men like the famous Arthur Duffy. Yet Shick was painfully thin, and to look at his long, lean legs it was hard to see where he got his living power. That is true of the sprints is true of distance and distance events. The fastest man in the world at a quarter of the day is undoubted J. B. Taylor, the Pennsylvania negro flyer. Yet Taylor is not muscled as might be expected. The performances of Melvin Shepard for the mile have been the marvel of athletic meets in the last two years. While only a schoolboy he beat the college champions, and he has a host of new records opposite his name. Yet to look at Shepard would be to feel only pity for his emaciated condition. Last years' American tennis champion, W. J. Clothier, who forfeited the title to Larned this year because of an injured leg, does not look like an athlete. He is tall and slender, his face is sallow and no hint of muscularity his physique. Yet no one better than he the grueling of a drawn-out tennis battle, which is truly one of the most frilful tests that can be imposed on an athlete. Even football has yielded to some extent to the new idea that heavy muscles do not necessarily make the athlete. Last year Pennsylvania's strong eleven was captained by Eddie Greene, a tall, slender man of no especial development, yet he was one of the stars of the season. In fact, during his entire course at college he has generally conceded to be the best defensive halfback in any of the colleges. The little, Carlisle athlete, Mount Pleasant, who is a wonderful sprinter, a star broad jumper, a super quarterback and a very good baseball player, is a little saved-off whose body gives no hint of the power and agility it possesses. Mount Pleasant is able to do things impossible to bigger men because his muscles are free and lithe in action, which is not a victim of that condition knowing his muscle bound," which gives a wonderful development to look at, but does it at the cost of speed. Not the Real Thing "They say," remarked the dear girl at the seashore, "that few marriages result from summer engagements." "I guess that's right," rejoined the race-horse man. "They are mostly trial heats." $2.40 PER YEAR. WASHINGTON PHYSICIAN KNEW HUMAN NATURE. Two Doses of the "Elixir of Life" All the Payment for Privilege of Shooting Over Long Forbidden Ground. A Washington sportsman tells a story of how he gained the privilege of gunning on the farm of an elderly woman in Virginia—a privilege that the woman had denied her neighbors as far back as the oldest residents of the county could recollect. The Washington man was visiting friends in Westmoreland county, and early one morning he started out with two of the county people to meet pubs and quail. Before noon they reached the farm of the elderly woman, her neighbors warning their city friend that she would not permit them to shoot upon her property. "And if she ever did permit it," said one of the country people, "she certainly would not at this time, for she is suffering from malaria and is having chills and fever every other day." "If that is the case," the Washington man said, "I know we will get the privilege." Turning from the road; the city man started in the direction of the house, but before he had gone many feet he was halted by the woman. She called to him to go back, but he merely put down his gun and kept walking. He spoke to her, asking if she were not Mrs. "That, sir is my name," was her response, "but you must not shoot on my farm." She was assured that the man from the city had no idea of shooting on her premises. He told her he knew she did not permit shooting on her farm, and he, therefore, had no idea of gunning on her property. "I happen to be a physician from Washington," said the gunner, "and I merely stopped here because I heard you were sick." That I am she confessed, "and I am sick." "Your appearance," said the man who had left his gun resting against the fence, "indicates that you have chills and fever." "You must be a good doctor," the elderly woman said, "because that's just what's the matter with me." The sportsman produced his bottle of "fire water" poured out an ordinary drink, telling her it was elixir of life. He then gave her a dose of quinine. A second drink made the elderly woman recall the days when she attended dances and did the light fantastic. Her rheumatic limbs were able to move as they had not moved for a number of years, and she forgot her injunction against gunning on her farm when the "doctor" assured her he had no charge to make for his services. "Doctor," she told him, "you and your friend shoot on my place all you please, but be careful and don't shoot my cow." Forty-two rabbits were killed that afternoon, and neighbors still recall the unusual sight of sportsmen gunning on that particular farm. Straight from the Shoulder. An official of the treasury department who enjoyed the confidence of former Secretary Shaw during the latter's regime Considers Mr. Shaw one of the brightest and most interesting story tellers that ever graced the president's cabinet. "Mr. Shaw's strong force, however, has always been reparatee," this official said. "He was addressing a large meeting in Washington a year or so ago and he was advocating saving among government employees. He was warming up to the subject, as saving has always been a hobby with him, and he was saying: 'Every one of you should be saving for old age. You shouldn't be looking for fortune to drop you on or to be pensioned by your employers when you get too old to be useful. Why don't you put something in bank every week, if only one dollar?' "Mr. Shaw was interrupted at that point and he was addressed young man, who showed up, 'Yes, and then have the bank fall.' "Well, if any bank fails it will never have any of your money in it," Mr. Shaw quickly replied. The White House Plate. The fact that the White House is equipped with a service of solid gold plate for use on state occasions is not talked about too loudly, as it seems, somehow, to jar on democratic simplicity. But the fact that the service is there is recalled by the fact that it needs refurbishing, and jewelers from New York, Baltimore and Philadelphia are bidding for the work. The plate was bought during the Van Buren administration. It is made up of four large candelabra, five fruit dishes, and eight table mirrors which are so fashioned that they can be formed into one large centerpiece. It is claimed that this service of plate is one of the handsomest in the world, and impresses even those diplomats who have seen the plate of the wealthiest European courts. The value of the White House plate is not generally known. Largest American Flag. To hang in the great court of the postoffice department in Washington a flag will soon be made which it is believed will be the largest in the world. It will be 60 feet long by about 35 feet wide. The thirteen red and white stripes will each be nearly 3 feet wide. The cost will be $200. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? THE APPEAL, A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY ADAMS BROS.

Distrust all who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole.—President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1907 The entertaining of the colored bishop from Africa by the white bishop of New York was an act requiring a large amount of moral courage. It cannot be doubted but that the act was performed in full view of all the circumstances surrounding the case, for Bishop Potter is no novice, but a man of great experience and too level-headed to stumble into a great blunder for lack of due consideration of the consequences of his act. Hence it must be admitted that the bishop had a purpose in entertaining the colored bishop, and it is not hard to conjecture what that purpose was. The bishop knew that he could not justly be censured for honoring a man upon whom the church had bestowed its highest honor. The bishop's lesson is that a man should be honored, SOCIALLY, for his intelligence, morality and the good he is doing, and not ranked as a pariah on account of the color of his skin.

My Dear Mr. Cortelyou: I congratulate you upon the admirable way in which you have handled the present crisis. I congratulate also those conservative and substantial business men who, in this crisis, have acted with such wisdom and public spirit. By their action they did invaluable service in checking the panic, which, beginning as a matter of speculation, was threatening to destroy the confidence and credit necessary to the conduct of legitimate business. No one who considers calmly can question that the underlying conditions which make up our financial and industrial well-being are essentially sound and honest. Dishonest dealing and speculative enterprise are merely the occasional incidents of our real prosperity. The action taken by you and by the business men in question has been of the utmost consequence, and has secured opportunity for the calm consideration which must inevitably produce entire confidence in our business conditions.

His inferiority and depravity, the South has almost succeeded in persuading the whole world that it is a martyr and the Afro-American a brute. The consequences of this flagrant violation of the amenities and proprieties are fearful to contemplate. Among other things, that promising young convert, Gov. Vardaman will, forthwith from grace, if he ever had any, and curse the reckless bishop and his wife, in the name of the Lord. Wall street will undergo a panic and all the seismographs in the country will be attacked with St. Vitus' dance. No such incident has occurred since Maine "went hell-bent for Gov. Kent." JAPAN'S PROGRESS. The following is an excerpt from the latest from Korea: In hundreds of cases where Japanese have suffered violence at the natives' hands mere suspects have been mercilessly put to the sword, hanged, or shot down without even the formality of trials. If the foregoing is true, the Japs are copying Western "civilization" with a vengeance and even bettering the instructions. Texas or Louisiana Christians could not surpass the efforts of these heathen. In a recent lecture Mrs. Mary Church Terrell told some truths about the South. Among other things she said: "By a continual exaggeration of the Afro-American's vices; by a studied suppression of the proofs of his marvelous advancement; by a malicious use of epithets, such as the scarecrow of social equality, the bugaboo of Negro domination, and others which mislead and poison the skepticism with respect to evidence of his marvelous advancement along all lines, but with a convenient credulity with respect to every report or tradition which can be used to prove ```markdown ``` CANNON, BORN M.

"The rapidity with which the South has poisoned the mind of the North against the Afro-American, and has actually alienated the sympathy and support of thousands who were formerly our good friends, is a splendid dibute to the persuasiveness, the plausibility, the persisterity, and the power of the South, while it resembles nothing so much as a skillful trick of legerdemain." Every word of the foregoing is absolutely true, yet a number of "good Negroes" at once came forward and denied Mrs. Terrell's statements. Among them, one Dr. Childs of Washington, D. C., said: "The fate of the colored people rested upon merit, and was judged by much the same standards as those applied to the white man." Dr. Childs ought to travel through Georgia or Texas, and he would soon learn that he was not "judged by the same standards as those applied to the white man." Judge Jones, in his charge to the grand jury declared that "the whole power of the government will be used, if need be, to enforce the orders of this court and to punish those who may defy them." The judge is a native Alabamian and an ex-Confederate, but he sees clearly that a few Southern Sancho Panzas need to be enlightened as to where they are at when they tackle Uncle Sam. Such fellows need a little reconstruction, well laid on, and they seem to be about to get it. They have presumed that because they have nullified the 15th Amendment without let or hindrance that they could, with impunity, do the same with any other provision of the constitution. Judge Jones is applying the Bible rule: Answer a fool according to his folly, as President Jackson did the South Carolina blatherskites. KREA WALLBLOM STORE Mr. S. C.

THEATRE In a "Soldier of the Cross" at the Grand Next Week. In exploiting Thomas E. Shea, who will be seen in classic program at the Grand for the week commencing Sunday matinee, Nov. 3rd, it is the plan of Cohan and Harris to produce at popular prices the better class of drama. In view of this, Mr. Shea has had written for him a new play by that well-known author, Eugene Thomas, entitled "A Soldier of the Cross," which will be given in conjunction with "The Bells" and "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Mr. Shea has always associated himself with the serious drama; and in his program for this season he has brought together a collection of plays each distinguished by a peculiar phase of his man-sided talents. The public is well acquainted with Mr. Shea's interpretation of Mathias in "The Bells," and of Mr. Hyde in "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." but a word on his new character, Aiax, the gladiator, in "The Soldier of the Cross," may be necessary. In this Mr. Shea will be seen in an entirely new aspect. The story takes place at Pompeii, at the time of the early Christian secret conclaves and the destruction of the city by Vesuvius. Many electrical and scenic effects are said to be introduced with startling realism, among which is an eruption of the volcano. A well-known company has been provided by Cohan and Harris. social at Germania Hall, corner 8th and Wabasha, Monday, Nov. 11. Look out for big bills and future announcements.

The Hallowe'en party given by the Twin City Boosters at Wagner Hall, on Thursday evening, was one of the most unique social functions of the season. The hall was elaborately decorated with autumn leaves and vegetables, and all through the house were Hallowe'en lanterns of various descriptions. The orchestra, Prof. Dubbie's, was hidden behind a screen of these decorations, while a large full-faced moon looked down complacently upon the jolly young people. "The Dance of the Goblins" in five parts was the feature of the evening. The guests were arrayed in fantastical drapings of sheets, while Mphisto made things warm with lurid flames of red and green, everyone went wild over it. There were about 75 persons present. The programs were quite unique, being printed on straw board with ragged edges and were strun~ with brown ribbons. 'Twas the jolliest party one could imagine. Minneapolis was well represented. Excellent refreshments were served and at a late hour, when the guests reluctantly departed, everyone boosting the Boosters. Do Y ?
