it nil it wns a .succes d'estime.

A wad of money wa.s lost for the hackiTs. which is varloii.sly estimated at Itetween $100,000 and $200,000.

But that was no fault of the con¬ test. It will go down in history as the greatest ever,

Nor was Weadick to blame in any particular. He gave them the biggc.st, best and most varied contest ever pulled off and more of it than the contract stipulated.

Never before were such notices .seen in the New York press. The news¬ paper Isiys fairly outdid themselves, but with those same papers warning people daily in scare heads set in let¬ ters six inches high that all traction lines would be tied up liefore night they could not be pt-rauaded to go al¬ most as far away from home as t'oney Island for fear they would not be able to get back.

The backers could have and should have saved the mess of garnishees, liens and attachments that marred the flnish. Weadick had put the Speedway back on the map for them and it would have been good business Judg¬ ment to have stood for a little deeper thrust of the gaff and saved the one asset gained.

Now that is lost, too.

Unless swept away by the descent of the constables, deputy sheriffs and lawyers there was enough money on hand to pay all prizes.

VICTORY WDN BY THEATERS AND FILM MEN AGAINST TAX Confirms Predictions Made in

The Billboard

Tax Will Remain Same as Under Present Law

Senate Restores Stamp Taxes Ignored by House

Washington, D. C., Aug. 14.—The motion picture industry, a.s well as the legitimate theaters, has won a decided victory in the United States Senate In connection with the fight put up by representatives of these institutions to amend the pending revenue bill so that the tax on theaters, motion pic¬ ture and otherwise, fixed by the house bill, would be repealed. The Billboard previously announced that this action would be taken. It being the only pub¬ lication in the United States to furnish its readers wjth this information one week in advance. The. caucus of the Democrats of the Senate, the majority, has approved the recommendations made by Senators Hoke Smith of Georgia and John W. Kern of Indiana, composing the finance committee, that the tax remain as it is in the present law. This means that the Senate as a

MODNTFDRD SIDE STEPS DEVEAUX BOYS; GOMPERS SORE At the Conference Held at the

Continental Hotel, N. Y. C.,

Last Thursday Because the Actors’ International Crowd

Were Bent Upon Pressing Strikebreaki^ Charge

.\t the instance of Samuel .Gom- per.s, president of the American Fed¬ eration of Labor, Hugh Frayne early last week sent out invitations to vari¬ ous groups of actors in New York City to attend a conference at the Hotel Continental in that cit.v, Thursday afternoon, August 10.

Three organizations accepted and appointed committees, viz., the newly merged .\ctors' Societ.v and Actors’ Kqulty .\880ciation. the Actors' Inter¬ national Union and The White Kats. •

This latter was headed by Harry Mountford, who, it is alleged, fearing that the .Actors’ International crowd, headed by De Veaux, would spring the charge of strike-breaking as soon the meeting was opened, refused to enter the lists.

It is reported that Gompers was very sore over the stand taken.

The Actors’ Ecpilty Association was represented by Me.ssrs. George Arliss. Howard Kyle, William Courtlelgh, Jefferson D'Angells. Thomas Wise, Giant Stewart and Edward Abeles.

The .\ctors’ International I’nion by Harry De Veaux. James L. Parry, Val Trainor, Charles I>awle.v, John Dono¬ van and Ed Welch.

The White Rats by Harry Mount- ford. James Fitzpatrick and Arthur

.Williams. The Jewish, German and negro act-

ore were not represented. Mr. Gompers heard the representa¬

tives of the Actors’ Equity Association and White Rats first.

Little was given out, but It is known that nothing was accomplished. The Actors’ Equity Association’s represen¬ tatives made it very, very clear from the jump that they would not amalga¬ mate with either the Actors’ Interna¬ tional Union or the White Rats, that they would not under any circum¬ stances play second fiddle to vaudeartists or even share a charter with them.

The Actors' International Union crowd was equally determined not to have anything to do with the White Rats as long as Mountford dominated that organization or a single wrecker w’as left in its ranks.

The White Rat bunch, safe in the possession of the charter, refused all

SOUTHERN FAIR MANAGERS WILL FIGHT RAILWAY PARKING RATES Protest Against $2 Per Day Demurrage Has Been Entered

State Railroad Commission Will Hear Case August 21

Nashville, Tenn., Aug. 14.—The fair managers’ side of the railroad question is being put up to the rail¬ roads in a petition to which the names of practically all of Tennessee’s big fair men have been attached.

New York, Aug. 14.—No Teutonic | rivalry la to enliven this season in the¬ atrical New York. Instead of work¬ ing at cross purposes, as they had ex¬ pected to do, Rudolph Christians, di¬ rector of the Irving Place Theater, and Hans Bartsch, director of the contemplated new German Bandbox Theater in East Fifty-seventh street, are going to tie up and present a solid front to the world.

A wider scope of production and of I repertoire will be possible this way | and save the expense of competition. Mr. Christians is an actor-manager of I tried qualities and Mr. Bartsch has been the Intermediary through which many of the best-known German plays have found their way to the American | stage.

The Irving Place Theater opens on | Wednesday, September 27; the Band- box premiere is scheduled for Friday, | September 29.

Mr. Anves has signed with Miss Oatherlne Nesbitt, who made a favor¬ able Impression last season in Justice, to play the leading role.

Mountford’s Misleading Moutlungs Convulse Broadway and the Vaudeville World

HIS EMPTY AND MEANINGLESS CLAIMS

Seen Through and Promptly Nailed Amid Much Derision and Laughter Five-Year Contract

t’hicago, Aug. 14.—K. Clayton Hall, manager and producer of vaudeville attractions, has signed an agreement whereby he will direct the act of Miss Hilda Von Taube. t<ic and cla.«slcal dancer, for a period of live years. Miss

cop coin from both sides and still keep in the good graces of both. It is do¬ ing so much boot-licking these days that it is actually growing to like it. New Yolk vaudeartists enjoy the .spec¬ tacle hugely.

Promptly on the heels of Harry | Mountford’s claim that Ackerman- Harrls-Grauman et al. theaters had signed clo.sed shop agreements with the White Itats come.s the real story.

No such agreement was made. No such agreement was contem¬

plated. In proof of it the.se houses are now

all alHIiated under a long and lasting contract with the W. V. M. A., which virtually means with the r. H. O.

When Broadway got the tip it leaned its head back as one man and howled with glee.

If there is one ]>erson that vaude¬ artists, up and down the big street, have no sympathy for it is the actor that is caught with the artful tlodger's ml8repre.sentation.«. He has been so thoroughly exposed and discredited that any one who falls for his stuff now, in their estimation, de.serves to be trimmed, and they merrily applaud each instance.

I Chicago, Aug. 14.—Joe Kanton and this company of athletes arrived In Chicago last week, after completing a successful trip over the Pantages en¬ tire chain of houses, starting last February. Mr. Fanton stated that he is in need of a rest, and contemplates taking a vacation before opening for the W. V. M. A. the coming season.

At a special conference held after the regular one at the Hotel Conti¬ nental last Thursday In New York City, a committee from Actors’ Inter¬ national Association pressed charges of strike-breaking against Mountford before Mr. Gompers, also proof of his double dealing with the White Rats.

Mr. Gompers heard the committee¬ men through and took the matter under advisement.

Tour for Violin Virtuoso The Morris A Cort-Mountford coali¬ tion is a big laugh up and down Hroad- way.

palAce Here Genius not Pirtfij^our I^nk insures

(Kevlewetl Monday Matinee, August 14)

New York. Aug. 14.—With cooler weather prevailing and several favorites

promised at the Palace the playhou.se held a capacity audience. The show

suffered an Interruption through the sudden illness of Lola Wentworth, but excei>t for a delay after the intermission before her partner, Mr. Tombes, an¬

nounced her illness, the show flowed steadily on.

No. 1—Current News Pictorial; five minutes.

.No. 1*—Danube Quartet, four men, presented some very clever casting,

not allowing the audience to grow weary for one minute from start to finish.

Six minutes in four: special drop; one curtain.

No. 3—\ olinsky alternated between the violin and the piano and han¬

dled each well as hLs simultaneous piano-violin number with his well-

known ability. As an eccentric genius on both of these instruments V’io- linsky will continue to add to his reputation. Eleven minutes, in oiie; three

l>ows.

No. 4—Flanagan and Edwards, in Off and On, delighted the audience, and,

though the two previous acts had warmed it up, Ed and Neily had no trouble tn leading it on to further hilarity. Their act Is accomplished with artistic

nonchalance and of course pulled quite as many laughs as of yore. Seventeen

minutes, opened In full, closed in one; special set; two bows.

No. 5—Bert Melro.'se. slated for the spot opening after the intermission,

tilled in this U>cation in order to replace Tombes and Wentworth. Melrose's

line of drivel during the building up of his props for his original fall set the audience into a chuckle that expanded into much applause at the finish. His

clown make-up was replaced by a quasi kiltie raiment. Eighteen minutes In four; one bow.

No. 6—Rankoff and Girlie, with Madeleine Harrison, plus their

corps de ballet. Is a finished offering in every respect. Teeming with

Tenwlchorean animation and studded at psychological Internals with liarticular brilliancy Ivan Itenkoff w-as never more limber and Lola fvirlic ne\er more printp for tlie delivery of her toe dancing. Miss Har¬

rison delivered her bit with punch and grace, as did also Max Fmnke

and the corps. The Thais number was a beautiful bit of work by Miss (virile and Rankoff, as was also the lawhasse number and Lamarche Rankoff. Twenty-three minutes in three, with special scenery; three

curtains.

No. 7—Grace LaRue could not give the audience enough and rightly so. She did more than merely select a repertoire of silvery songs—she delivered them in true Grace LaRue manner. With her natural art she veritably transported her listeners until one dreamed of silken notes and the veriest moonbeams of melody. Her work was as a finished painting from the g^l6ry or as consummate pottery in a museum— not a single fiaw, complete registry. Her two hand¬ some gowns were in keeping with the daintiness and beauty of her offerings. Charles Gillen, at the piano, proved a capable accompanist. Thirty-six minutes in three; six bows, with the audience still asking for more.

INTER MlSiSlON

After the nforcsnbi delay Mr. Tombea appeared and explained the reafion for the Tombea and Wentworth offering not appearing during the matinee. He expreaaed the hope, however, that their number would be given at the night ahow and thereafter for the week.

No. S—Nat M. Wllla. In hla familiar happy tramp role, ably kept up the quality of the ahow. Hla line of patter waa thoroughly topical and hla aong panvdlea, bearing a .Mouaa tempo that he haa carried awav from the Hippo¬ drome. were much enjoyed. Twenty-two minutes In one: two bowa.

No. 9—Francea Pritchard la not only a beautiful creature to look upon, hut alao a llnlahed dancer, Farl Ilemmer ably aaaiata, aa doea alwi Coleman's famous nusatnn orchestra. Her Cuban danson formed an excellent portion of her offering, aa doea the bathing number. There la no doubt but that Francea will clinch her right to ktellar vaudeville consideration this very week, and once this debut being over will, achieve a niche worthy of her Indisputable ability Thirteen minutes In four.—AKAY.

Majestic, Chicago (Reriewed Monday Mattaee, Angnat 14)

Chicago, Aug. 14.—The hill at the MaJeaUc for the current week Id practically an all-star one, an.l every act came ia for well-merited appluuKe. Capacity house.

No. 1—Pictures. No. 2—Knrl Beeman and Claude Anderson,

billed as the two speed boys, opened with one of the fa.stest exhibitions of roller skating seen In a long time. Waltzing and spinning and other special features sent the act over with a hang. S<-me comedy is introduced by one memlH-r of tbe team. Six minutes, full stage; very good.

No. .4—Britt Wood, the juvenile Jester, as¬ sisted by his banjo and harmonious harmonica, unraveled a bunch of comedy songs, every one of which scored. Wood has a keen sense of humor and handles his material to tbe best a Ivantage. Nine minutes, in one; four bows.

No 4—Charles Cartmell and Laura Harris danced .ind sung their way into popularity right from tbe start. Exclusive song numbers, ec¬ centric dancing and other features are presented in an acceptable manner, and they made tbelr |H>int without any trouble. The drunken bit at the elose. with Miss Harris dressed as a mao. went over big. Fifteen niluuU-s. open full stage, close In one; two bows.

No. 5—Webb and Burns, the Italian min¬ strels, offer a som-'what different version of Ihe usual "wop" act and gained In favor accordinsly. Songs, instrumental numbers and comedy are nicely combined and the result proved most acceptable to the audience. Four¬ teen minutes. In one; two bows.

No. 6—Noel Travers and Irene Douglas pi—- sent a breezy little comedy, entitled Meadow- brook Lane. A cmel-hearted mortgage holder, a defenseless girl, the grocery boy and a voln- ble vender of lineoleur, make up the characters. Both Travers and Miss Douglas enact their parts well, and are ably assisted by the other two characters. The scenery Is elaborate. Twenty minutes, full stage: four curtains.

No. 7—Arthur Deagort, of musical comedy fame, proved most acceptable to tbe entire audience. Songs and impersonations followed one another in rapid succession. His character bit -vf the scene in tbe Broadway cafe had the audience ro-king in their seats. Twenty-fonr minutes, in one; spec-lal drop for tbe Gardner

song; six bows and an encore. No. 8—Brice and King never fall to bring

Jcy to the hearts of the admirers, althongli these same admirers always prove moat tyranni¬ cal in their demands for the old and new aongs. Today was no exception, and Brice and King sang and danced and responded to cnatinoons applause with more songs and dances. Among the new numbers that made a hit was one by Herbert Moore, entitled I’ve Got a Million Dollars Worth of Love for Ton. Aa an encore tiK-y sang a medley of Ihe old numbers. Sidney Franklin at the piano. Twenty-two minutes, in four. .\n ovation throughout.

No. 3—Herbert Williams and Hilda Wolfus followed the hit of the WH and cleaned np a big I un<-h of honors for themselves. Williams

Is a gloom chaser of the Orst water, and his <'omedy antics at the piano called for unlimited langhter. Miss Wolfns Is an able assistant and adds materially to the act. Twenty min- ntes. In one; sever, bows.

No. 10—Miss Robbie Oordone offers one of the moot artistic posing acts on the stage and one th.vt cv-ntalns renl merit. Her various poses ivpresent procelalns. Ivories and oil paintings from well-known arti-sts. Practically the entire house remained for this number, and the applause aeeorded eac4i pose attested the

appnv-latlor.—WALTER.

MANAGERS KEEP PROMISE TO N. V. A.

Theaters To Go to New Organization

New York, Aug. 14.—When the announcement

waa trst made that varioua vaudertUe managera wonld co-operate with the National Vaudeville

Artiste. Inc., to the extent of setting aside a day on which the recelpta of their theaters would be given to the new organlxation, conster-

natloo beesme rampant in the hearts of Harry Monotford and his cohorts of the White Bats.

This, they knew, would do more to get Increased

membership and prestige for the N. V. A. than anything else. It would put them on a sound

Snanclal basis and would give them a tidy aum aa a aacleua for their Insurance and sick bene¬

fit features. Therefore, argued they, the wise

course to pursue was to decry the promise of the managrn and word went forth to the board of wro«kers and the -yesmen" and sUtemenU were printed In the green sheet tending to dis¬

credit the managers. Their promises were not to oe believed. They were ••boll” and •‘bunk.^^ It was a plan to siuire membership, that was all. It was too ••Quixotic^’ for such money-grabbers

and blood-eockers as were the vaudeville man¬

agera. Following The Billboard offers an annonnee-

aaest promulgated by the V. M. P. A. which shows eouclaslvely that the vaudeville manager: are keeping their promise to the new organixa

sociation has agreed to aet aside one

Century under the Dillingham-Zlegfeld, Jr,,

management. Mias Dressier held a contract for

thirty-five weeks to appear In a comedy by James Forbes. When she read the play thor¬ oughly she decided it did not fit her and re¬ leased the management from her contract. The

Century contract is said to have been signed as a separate deal.

Unrel to hU wreath as a wise producer who I knows his own winners. In the midst of a I week of first nights and warm nights descended Cheating Cheaters, and cheated no one. Author,

producer and audience agreed on that score, not to mention that the critics on the various

dalUea are of the same opinion. They used

many adjectives In saying that It deserves a

solid pUce in the bits of the coming season.

The Tribune: ’’Surprises abound, and Cheating

Cheaters proves to be exciting and amuaing. It began rapidly and progressed entertainingly,

and baa a uniformly exc<'llent cast.”

The Ilersld; ’’They laughed the beat out of

town at the Eltinge when Cheating Cheaters

was presented.”

The Sun: ’’Nothing quite like It ever seen In New York. It is a crook play par excellence,

original in both theme and treatment.”

The Times: ’’Cheating Cbeatem la most en¬

tertaining, and la the happiest attempt at mix¬

ing farce and melodrama aince Seven Keya to Baldpate. The caat is exceptionally good.

Iieaded by Marjorie Rambean, who la richly

gifted.”

The World: ’’Max Marcln’a Utest effort

thrilled a Urge first-night audience with the

suspense and punch of a melodrama of the old school, and yet amused It with the complications and absnrdities of a farce. It scores In lU nn-

usnal plot and parts efficiently acted. The dialogue la excellent.”

Among the indivldnal artista In the cast, to

whom the reviewers gave special mention, be- sldee Miss Rambean, are Robert MeWade, Cyril Keigbtley, William Morris, Edouard Durand.

I As we go to press all the backers and principals were caucu.sing in an endeavor to save the prize money for the winners.

Weadick was working like a demon to this end.

As fast as one recourse was ex¬ hausted he dug up another.

He battered down opposition like a seventeen-inch gun and may be counted upon to fight desperately in the interests of the contestants to the bitter end.

The outlook at this writing is not bright.

THE STAMPEDE

Guy Weadick put it acroaa id hU maaterly way.

The Stampede waa and is a teal contest that

fulfllled every promise that Goy made to the

Sbeepshtad Bay Speedway offlcials who flnaneed

the colossal uDdertakloy. Not only was it • socceas as a contest, but also ns • tboroegiily American reproduction of Western art and

realism. At first nnbelievlng New Tork threatened 10

take slowly to It, but, despite Itaelf, the me¬

tropolis fell more for it day by day. nntll tbe

Saturday matime crowd surpassed in nnaiber

even the most rash estimate of wbat would

turn tbrongb the tumetilec. And bow tbe

spectators did wboop them up. The ebrlUest

cries of tbe cowboy and cowgirl imBteetanta

were forever stilled into insigniftcance by tbe

I spectators. New Tork woke up and displayed

a type of unbounded enthusiasm heretofore only

exhibited at World’s Heiiee Polo Ground games,

i To Guy belongs this ex traordlnany honor, ana

I the distinguished visitors! They ranged from ex-l’resldents to broncho bustera now working

i In the war-horse corrals of New Tork hsrbor—

Isit Mg or small, rich or pf>cr, they were there

strong. Theodore Roosevelt was there shouting

like a yonngstec, congmtulatlng the winning

contestants personally. 80 was Mayor Mitchel,

of New Tork; Mayor Dahlman, af Oaaaba, Neb.,

throughont the week.

The excitement waa aided and abetted by

many aocldeata to contestants, bnt none proved

fatal Incktly, though ooe, George Rose, a movie

cowboy, was badly hurt with a scalp wound by

being thrown from a brook. At first be was

thought to have sustained a fractured skull, but

according to latest reports is recovering. Others

serloiisly enough hurt to demand confinement in

tbe S|ieedway field hospital Included John R.

of tbe broken leg she sustained last year, waa

painfully hurt today in the same ligament.

Howard Lemonds showed a full quota of grit,

too. Two days before the Stampede opened he

was run over by an automobile, which battered

In several frontal ribs of his chest. Notwith¬

standing, he entered tbe arena for every event

in which Im- was listed. On one ooraslon be

was thrown on Ms face and lacerated his left

Tlio height of the ambitions of

tlMwe who control Tlio BiUboard is

to make it a useful paper.

ProgrcsNlve tliey wouid also have

it, and enterprising and Independent

and fair and conrageons in defend¬

ing ami furthering the interests of

the peo|>le of the show world, but

over and above all else they desire

it to lie—just useful.

It iH glorious to shape and lead,

hut tliere are lots of glory-seekers.

Ours let It be, to help and serve.

OUR MOTTO;

Siioufidk! May they always be

riglit, but right or wrong. Show-

folk!

THE OFFICERS’ NIGHTLY CATCH Pale, pretty glrU, icared with the newness of it all, are aboo-ed from the streets

nightly Intu the Manhattan Night Cuurt at Jelferaun Market In New York City.

They come In Socka aoiiietlmea. Often they are territted aud trembling and their

teattmuuy, hurriedly granted, la either entirely Incoherent or evaaively IncrlmlnaUng.

Some of them are the drega of the night world, bruscii In dauby cheeki and pendant

earrlnga—wlae with a bitter niadom and aopblatlcated with yeara of harrowlug experience.

Then, there are others—

It la the youth of them that appeals. The tragedy that they should have sold out

even before the dower of their girlhood has opened la the tad and the pathetic part.

The chance la there that only the outer petals may have been touched, with the must

and lust of dltb. There le that milliontb of a chance that the sunshine of wholeaomeueaa

may yet ablne warmly enough to open the hearts of those girls.

It la a chance worth taking, and yet it Is denied the victims of the officers’

nightly rouud-upi.

The Public Defender—the State's lawyer, for miulstering to the needs of the man

or woman who needs attorueyabip, and yet has no money to pay for It—should have bis

place nightly In that crowd of unfortunates.

There are certain to be Innumerable cases where his Induence might be a saving

grace. He might be a dam which would turu the current in the glrl-llves that are

trembling on the verge of disgrace.

The officer’s capture enters an atmosphere of iinfuIrneHS when she la herded Into

night court. It la a foregone concliiaion that abe Ih guilty because she has been garnered

into the human whirlpool by an officer of the law. Why an officer with a blue cap should

have the right to exert a paychologlcal effect of that sort la hard to tell, but he does.

The prisoners are granted a hearing In which they are supposed to present their aide

of the case. They have tbemselvea, and tbeuiaelves alone, to depend on. What a

blesalng that Public Defender would be—a man with legal tralniug and atatus, who

could see through the embarrassment and terror of the occasion and put the clamp ou

carelesa arreats baaed on circumstantial evidence!

Perhaps there would be no theatrical women among them. Perhaps there might.

Whether there would or would not be It Is a part of the duty of theatrical men and

women to boost for the Public Defender, as a peraonality and as an Institutlou, in view

of the poBslble time when unfortunates of their own calling, and of the world’s other

callinga, might need him.

A prrM aceot, ft^llnc rifbt frUky. With a bon—«noo*h tor two—

ToM me that old Irlah whitkry Waa DO kiD to Iriab atew.

Regular paragraph wrltera may amirk at our

booeat efforU at terae, but we reapectfnlly point

out that the hot weather la reapooalbl* for lota

of thlnga. not the leaat of whleh la Harry

gweatman'a alienee.

The New York car atrlke la being blamed for

a minor accident to A. Waahlngtoo React, man¬

ager of Very Good. Bddle. running at tbe

Caalno Theater In tbe metropolla. While the

atreet cam were rehearalng aa targeta for aun-

dry rolmlea hurled by aealona atrlkera, Peaet

balled a tail to eacort him to the Caalno. When

the rehlcle had nearly reached the theater the

drlrer took a andden notion to teat the machine

by ateerlng Into a wooden barricade. The teat

pro»e<l aerloua to Peaefa wrtat. which waa cut

by flying glaaa. He will be off duty for ne»-

eral daya.

Walter Rerhtin. recent adranoe agent for

one of the Krecklea companlM, and who dlaap-

l>eare<l from hla familiar bannta In Cincinnati

aonii' montha ago, bobbe<l np again laat week,

looking aa young and handaome aa erer. Walter

refuaea to aay what he acwunpllahed while away,

outalde of a bum ear cauaed by too much awlm-

mlng.

If Blanche RIng'a play bad been called Broad¬

way and Sweet Milk, Inatead of Broadway and

Buttermilk, there would be aome exenae for a

|Miat|a>nen>ent on account of tbe hot weather.

But. aa the title waa aoured before the beat got

a chance at It the poa’t pone meat moat reat on

another point.

Standing room In tbe vicinity of the lAmba'

new qnartera In New York laat week waa aell-

log high, aa many adrance and preaa agenta and

other theatrical folk were retnming from monn-

talna, ralleya and trout atfeama to prepare for

the coming winter. Among tboae wbo put In

an api>earanre, after aereral weeka apent In

Ignoring hot weather talk, were Cbarlea Hyde.

William Elliott, Edward Cook, E. D. Price and

Harry Alward.

Walter Dnggan aaya: “When tbe outlook

aeema a little dlacouraglng remember what Ty

Cobb nae^ to be a bnah leagner." Walter la a

baaeball bng, anyhow, and will argue for the

Cincinnati Beda agalnat any four talkera In the

country,

Mike Manton, of McIntyre and Heath fame,

la In New York State ahead of a feature fllm.

He la doing flue, at a real clreua aalary. Aak

Punch Wheeler what that meana.

Talking of tbinga that bring odorn of aawdaat: I Bddle Brown la a valuable cireaa agent. He

•aye tbe boMea alwaya call him Into cooanlta-

tlon on important affaire. Then they do differ¬

ently than he advlaed, and make money. Which

proven that there are aeveral waya of being val¬

uable.

Harry Mitchell, once a good tent ahow agent,,

baa been managing the Empreaa Theater In Chi¬

cago for aeveral yeara.

They're together again—George Donahue and

Bill Junker. Donahue will manage Step Lively

and friend Junker will be erven daya In advance,

with a aecond man trailing right along after

him. It la a atrange coincidence, hut Step

IJvriy opena at Benton Harbor, Mich., the aame

opening aland aa laat aeaaon for Henpecked

Henry, which George and Bill were with.

It la recalled to our mind that when Hen¬ pecked Henry opened laat aeaaon It waa aa^

rounded by a bunch of tbirteena, but casM nnt a winner. Bill Junker clalma be broke tbe boo-

doo before lb* tbow ever opened. There Is a

poaalblllty that Junker may have to repeat the proceia at tbi* year'a opening.

Managera are getting more cunning every aas-

aon. Becently a manager received a letter from

a would-he actress, wbo offered ben services st

120 per week without apeclalttes. or $22.00 per

week with specialties. The manager wired her

to come on, and do Juat the apeclaltles. Thereby

saved I'JO per week for a aeaaon, or be would

have. If ahe bad accepted the generous offer.

Charles Emerson Cook, tbe well-known and

eminent purveyor of puhllcltyi has been aa-

gaged by George 8. BInmentbal, manager of

the Eta Producing Company, aa press represen¬

tative of the Japanese comic opera, Noto, for

tbe coming aeaaon. With Cook at tbe publicity

helm this new one abonld be favorably known before the aeaaon la far advanced.

“Tacka" Etter Is going to pilot The Bely Poly

GIrla this season, and says It’s going to be the

biggest and beat musical tab. on the road.

"Tacks” will bin the show -Jlke a clrcna—he

knows how.

Ben Kraus finally reached Chicago, leaving a

trail of depleted poet-card stores In his wake.

He was so glad to see a regular town again that

be rushed up and kissed one of tbe traflic cops

at the comer of Wabash and Monroe. In fact

be acted lust like a genuine Indian. Ben left

tbe Windy City Ust week for New York to

lend hla aid In settling the atreet cat' diflicnitiee.

Ben will be a Moroeco agent this fall ami sea¬

son, aa usual.

Have you ever noticed those big spreads

Punch Wheeler Is getting in tbe pai>era for A1

O. Barnes' Circus? Punch certainly gets the

•pace. A Canton (O.) paper said recently that

ha waa fliut 'ln that town in 1878. and was for

thirty-two years press agent of tbe John Rob¬

inson Show. Punch says the reporter ma<le a

mistake of twelve or fifteen years. Most have

added one year for every beer that Whee er

bought him.

One of our Ideae of something to worry about

Is the fact that a Spanish mackerel can't talk

Spanish. Stanley Datason, please note.

Jake Vetter says: "Money Is worth what It

earns. A fair Interest on a dollar for one year

Is five cents. Therefore, every nickel spent fool¬

ishly represents the earning power of a dollar

wasted. A flfteen-cent drink, or three nickel

cigars each da.T, for one year, meana the same as

If yon bad $1,085 Invested at five per cent and

yon were throwing your money away. Do you

get me, you agents?"

At a meeting of the allege<l finance committee

of tbe Press Agents' Tnlon it was decided to

go on as usual, for nothing Is wasted In spend¬

ing the Interest on a phony bank account.

A wagon tent ahow out West goes Into theaters

when It rains. They give a ball show concert

after tbe regular ab«>w. It also has a ball team

playing the local clubs at 25 cents admission on

afternoons when there was no matinee. They

adverllse<l for a yellow clarinet pla.ver wlio un-

derstanda the care of hones. Oh. yes. tbe band

plays for local dances, after the concert, and

the leading man wrestin with the town cham¬

pion. Ihe agent writes that tbe manager

wanted him to roll barrels at tbe freight house

while waiting for bis train.

Harry Crandell says'lt's too hot on Broadway,

ami Is thinking of bitting the trail for Michigan

for a vlalt with tbe "old folks."

Robert Gran la done. He waa one of the .eld¬

est publicity men In active service, and died In

tbe harness. A genial, kimlly gentleman, ever

ready to do a favor, be will be aadly missed.

VAUDEVILLE NOTES A surprise banquet was given in Elmer’s

Musical Fletcher, San Francisco's representa¬ tive musical artist, has been playing around Chicago and making himself at home writh many of tbe old time native son acquaintances whom he has looked up. Mr. Fletcher has a remark¬ able musical act. entirely out of tbe ordinary. The Friedlander Trio or the Three Musical Fried- landers, the moguls of eccentric instrumental comedy, are also natives of the Golden Gate who are to be found working this teiritory. "Mnslc.il” Fletcher and the Friedlandera are life-long aciinaintances, and ran usually be found in each others company.

Jack Lord, In vaudeville with Margarette Vernon, desires his friends and others to send all mail for him through the mail department of Tbe Billboard so he will be sure to get It. He tried the mail service of another theatrical l>aper and lost tbe biggest part of his mail. He then placed an ad in The Billboard and another in tlie other trade Journal, getting over a doxen answers from bis Billboard ad and not one from the other. The week of August d Lord and Vernon playerl Hagerstown, Md., with their usual big success.

Murphy and Klein, Elsie and Eddie, registered a meat einphattc bit In Pubuque, la., when they appe.vre-l at Union Park tbe weeks of July 24 and 31. They were originally booked for one week, but went so big that Manager Jake Rosen¬ thal held them over, and the second week was even better than tbe first. While there they tried out a new act written by John P. Mulgrew, which was very successful. Murphy and Klein were the big bit of the bill, getting dne crerlit In the dally papers and from the park management.

Joe Fanton and Company arrived In Chicago August 7. after having been away from here since his starting on the Pantages Circuit Feb¬ ruary 28 at Winnipeg. After completing the

Emilie Lea, featured In May Tully's World Dancers, which after its first apiiearance re¬ cently at the New York Palace was acclaimed one of the greatest of dancing acts, made her first apiiearance on the stage at the early age of two years. Vsl Trainor states he beard her "apeak lines" on the stage In Australia years ago, when she was not yet three years old. It

GREAT RECEPTION

Tendtrad the Salia-Floto Show* and Its Own*r* at 0*nv*r

Militur 'J'tie Billboard: I was In llenver Monday, AuKuHt 7, with tbe

Hella-Kloto Mbowa, and It falla to few people In a lifetime to receive tbe tribute the Denver public banded iMeaarH. II. II. Tamuien and Fred Buntlla, owuera of tbe abow, and Otto FkJto, tbeir aaauciate.

I'olltical and newBi>a|>er ronditiona were aucb that tbe public waa called uia>n to abow Ita anawer by ataylflK away from tbe abow. Tbe Nen'a and Timea knocked tbe abow in old-faab- loned tank town atyle.

Tbe public auawered all right, but tbe anawer waa two iinmenae turnawaya, deapite ahowera and threatening weather. They anawered by eatabliabing a new reiaird for Sella-Floto. The reoeipta amounted to nearly $11,000 on tbe day and only miaaed $lb,0U0 becauae there waa nut room.

Tammeu and Bonilla received an immenae re¬ ception when they went to their aeata with tbeir faiiiiliea, and every act, from tbe grand entree to tbe Jeaa Willard athletic exhibition, waa v)N-ltcrv>iMly clieercd to tbe echo to make St plain that Denver la atancb to ita fellow citixena, who have one of tbe beat attractioua on tbe road.

LA TENA’S WILD ANIMAL SHOWS

After twe weeka In Quebec tbe abow la once more in tlM good old C. S. A. We cruaaed the line Saturday Bight, Augnet 5, and Bundayed la North Troy, Vt. Quebec la trying on one'a narrra and It aeotna good on<-e more to be able te talk Kngliati. The abow uaed interpretera on the aide-abow and for tbe auuouncementa, and in tbe main did good buaineaa.

I,egal Adjuater U U. I'lxa-tur la now a happy fellow. After ata.viiig up ail night and aeeing tbe ahow.aafely acnwa the line, and two weeka in trying to acquire tbe French dialect In deal¬ ing with the odiclala, he ha.a now time to enjoy a few houm to hiniaelf unnioleated.

Alex Lowande ia bappy again. He has his mule and is now closing tbe show with bis act.

"Nosey” Swab Is back once more in bis bungalow after a seaalou in tbe hospital at Ot¬ tawa with tonailitis.

Mrs. Florence Drake (it seems funny to write this, as Mrs. Drake waa only a few years ago Florence Forrester, and idaylng Little Eva with the Governor's I'ncle ’Toin’s Cabin company), la In charge of the lady candy bntcbera. Mrs. Dvwnie is doing some business with tbe candy stands.

George Barton, chief of the cowlioys. baa re¬ covered from his recent accident, and la now riding In the Wild West concert.

Pup Coy actually smiled last Sunday. He picked up two new working men. "Puss” Irvin waa also In tbe running. He gained two also, and is now full handed.

Joe Gray, who makes the pictures while you wait, Is a happy man. He baa a new stock of plates and this time it didn't cost him $9.75 duty.

“Bones” Hartxell. who has been clowning with the show for the past four weeks, closed at North Troy, aa it was im|>oasible for him to pat on his acta as the Canadian offlcials per¬ sisted in holding up bis animals, even after the time limit, and It was only pigs at that.

Prof. Kerns la now In a good-natured mood. He baa gained some real musicians in (tob Wil¬ liams and “Bing” Harris and tbe old-timer. Doc Relmer, on trap drama.

Tbe midway has been depleted since we crossed the line. Sam Freed and his dog show didn't work in Quebec, but he's on again In tbe States. Ike Sllvert>urg is also on the happy list. Ike worked nine weeks in Canada and never gave away a teddy bear.—FIJtTt'HEIt SMITH.

Frank Spellman la getting out a nifty folder in behalf of tbe new United States Circus Cor¬ poration. Spellman's plans are rapidly being put into concrete form, and the new circua ia likely to make the entire amusement world sit up and take notice.

Press Agent James M. Brown, of tbe John Robinson Shows, entertained tbe members of Car No. 1, Kingling Bros.’ Circus at Columbus, Neb., last week. The Kingling car stopped in Columbus on tbe run to Norfolk.

Jamea F, Donalson and Col. T. W. McCnllongh, managing editor of The Omaha Bee, renewed old aequaintani-eship when the Kingling circua con¬ tracting press agent made Omaha last week. Colonel McCullough is personally acquainted with more circus men than any other man in

Sam J. Banks is not on the road this season— tbe first that be has missed since 1901. On .\ugust 3 at Glens Falls, N. Y., be visited the Cook & Wilson Show and stayed around tbe lot all day. Incidentally, he wrote a column of good stuff for the daily paper regarding tbe show. Banks also Journeyed to Saratoga to visit the show, and while there be met bis old friends, Frank A. Kobblns, Sr., and K. M. Harvey.

Brick (J. U) Palmer, who for many years was identified with nearly every branch of the show business, has settleil down in Pittsvllie, Wis., and has received a commission as post-

Eddie M. Jackson, press agent of the Sella- Floto Clrcut (back with thow), made qnite a hit with the newspaper men of La Croose. WIs. ‘ne La Crotae Sunday Chronicle of July SO came out with almost a column devoted to his life. Among other things the paper said: “And It was not until he had seated himself directly In front of na, with a handfnl of reserved scat paaoet held alluringly In one hand, that'wa got a good look at the little one, and discovered, to our snr- prioe, that It was none other than Eddie Jackson, 'of La Crosse, Wisconsin, If yon please.’ ”

. Oernid Fltsgarsld la now permanently located at Ogdenaburg, N. T., In the Insurance hnsineos. He oald directly after paying his flrut month's offlee rent he had nine offers to go on tbe road. His brother, Harry Fltigerald, is with tbe Coop A Lent Circus In Canada. Frank Cooper has piloted that new show to good money all season.

IVople of Delaware and the eastern •hore of Maryland are wondering If Jerry Mugtvan or Andrew Downie will tour those States tbia fall. The territory has not been Invaded for two years, and ax bumper crops of all kinde nee re¬ ported. there la some loose change In that aec- tlon.

No doubt the Delaware. Maryland and Vir¬ ginia Prninaula will be visited by several of the smaller shows this fgll, a’a the fanner* have filleil th.'lr coffers from the big atrawlierry crop. The tomato season In that territory—the largest tomato growing section In the country—Is now coming on. and la expected to be a bumper. The cimis man the latter part of Angnat or the middle of September Is sure to get some of the long green should be take advantage of the opportnnlty.

1. 8. Ixing, one of the founders of the bat¬ ter commission firm of S. 8. long A Bro., 102 Warren street. New York, died on hia mag¬ nificent farm at Mlilcreek, Pa.. May 7 last at the age of 80, and bis will has Just ben pro¬ bated. “One of Its provisions is that no circus or show horses shall be pastured on bis farm." Such is tbe reasoning of tbe rellgtonlet. Pity the poor clrcna horse; the beast la steeped In aln.

Hie late A1 BingUng'a will, made on May 8, 1918, and filed in Barahoo shortly after hts death, was offered for ^bate at Bridgeport, Conn., August 7. Only $27,093 waa located in tbe State last named, and the tax In consequence waa only $720. Other flguren and details pub- liabed by tbe dally prtos were quite generally misleading.

Bert Davis and wife, known aa Hiram Bird¬ seed and Aunt Lncindy, have been at Keith's Theater, Atlantic City, for five weeks. Manager Anderson has engaged them until September 1.

This is tbe first time we hare seen this one “palled.” It's some story, but we are Inclined to believe the press agent “atretched” things somewhat. We quote an Athens (Ga.) dally:

"The greatest innovation in the show basiness since tbe palmy daya of old P. T. Barnum will be ahowD the iieople of Athens when the Great Greenwood Shows, now located on Sanford Field, erects tbe first rubber clrcna tent ever made in this conntry. The new rubber tent Is tbe very first of Its kind, and It is believed will solve tbe greatest problem that baa confronted showmen since tbe first traveling clrcna made its bow to the public. The rnbber outfit not only insures perfect comfort in the face of the moat severe rain storm, but is adaptable to any alxed city without alteration, as the giiy ropes and stakes are so arranged that tbe slxe can be ebanged at will, making It either seat two, three, four or five thousand people simply by setting the stakes farther oat and stretching tbe top witb a special lateral pnlley made for tbe purpose.”

Think of It—eblUed air at a clrcna. Tbe Ogdenaburg (N. T.) Daily News oays; “Here la a real showman witb a aonl above grabbing It all. for AI O. Bornoa* Clrcna boa electile fans In the big top, and plenty of them, too, playing upon tbe audience during tbe perform¬ ance. It waa a bappy Inoplranon on tbe pert of the management, and waa Immenaely appreci¬ ated by tbe two big erowda here. Tbe oldewall netting eonpelled a breesy draft to permeate tbe entire big canvna, adding mneb aest to tbe performance and more comfort tor tbe large attendance.

Dad Miller and bla cookhouse are back on the lot of tbe World at Home.

Here’s a good one on George Mtrr, told at tbe Colonial, Pittsburg. Just before George left tor the Great Empire be was very badly In need of a town, and he mabed Into the hotel one day and said to the crowd: “Por tbe love of Mike, some one give me a committee and aave me my Job.” Deacon Delmore spoke up and said be bad a committee, but they were an aw¬ ful dead bunch. But George said be could wake up any committee. Deacon bad quite a few errands to do and agreed to take George to tbe committee If be would go with him first. George said. “All right." and when they flnisb^ Deacon's errands George asked if Deacon thought the committee would be In. Deacon said: "Sure.” He knew they would, and aa they approached the morgue they were bringing out a corpse on a stretcher, and Deacon says: "George, there goes one of your committee; tbe other six are Inside. If yon can wake them up you are some agent.”

Cyolonr Woodland and Ralph Decker, motor¬ drome rldera, had their heada together In Ix)D- don. O., recently. It Io<ikB like next aeaaon’a plana ara formulating already.

William Jndklna Hewitt la at tbe HoM Nor- aMDdle, New York City. Several carda received (ram him were poeted from Tlniea Square, and 4be time canceM would indicate be had given them to a milkman to mail.

George BoIIlna—la youra a aad cane of Watchful Waiting!

Dr. Guy Hatfield, Jr., baa added a bop-fiend layout to bla Anatomy Show on tbe Veal outfit.

J. George Looa’ Sbowa are looking brand new. New bannera, new fronta, etc., will make it impoaalble for hla Teaaa committeea to recognlae tbe nbow.

When we can forget little peraonal petty Jew km at CIO long enough to aee tbe round bualneaa aide of tblnga we will profit largely.

H. B. Jeraey baa added a waffle oven conceaalon to bla jnlce Joint on the Looa Sbowa. Thla will keep Jeraey buay all the time.

Bud Jarvia la wearing bia necktie for a bat band. Vlalton are wondering whether tbe Oount la advancing atyle or whether be baa adopted a new form of economy,

Ooatborg, lid., la well named. It proved tbe undoing of Tbe Great Atlantic Shown. Uncle Joe Tbonet atrlved bia utmoat, but the burden waa too great, and Froatburg waa tbe atraw that broke tbe camel'a bark. Spot Hadley apoke In higbeat terma of Uncle Joe. and aaid that be acted tbe prince through It all, and, while there amy be a few who will have a aore apot, tbe majority of abowmen on tbe caravan were with Joe. Spot Jumped back to Naabville to take op bia old poaitlon with tbe Newa Company.

Every day we aee examplea of tbe abowman who tried to mix booxe with bualneaa—It won't go. Let tbe other fcllow'a experience be leaaon enough for you—you can’t beat it. And tbere'a nothing amart In bragging of your capacity. Any damn fool can make a bog of hlmaelf.

Mack Harria and Sam Lawrence, with Sam Bich for the paat five yearn, have blowcd the Rutherford No. 2 Shown, where they have been for tbe paat fourteen weeka, and are enjoying life on tbe ocean wave and fighting abarkn at Atlantic City.

Tbe rumor la Hying about that next aeaaon George Dobyna will have out a trick of bla own. Aa no denial haa emanated from the huatliiig George. It hi aafe to preaume that he la doing aome figuring. Une thing, if Gevirge Dobyna doea put out a ahow It'a going to Ite.one that will caiiae a good many nianagera to ait up and take notice. There are too few men like Dobyna In the game.

J. J. McCaffery ia taking charge of De Vaux A Kleln’a new dining car. and Henry Hart, manager of the ferria wheel, baa taken charge of Harry and Ben’a three abreaat. Nothing to do until tomorrow.

That energetic and clever agent. Bill Bice, while In Pocatello, Id., recently, waa given a beautlfal big douhie column dlaplay photo, and —well, apparently. Bill had thinga hla own way.

WAS THE MAYOR FROM MISSOURI

Fdr tbe first time in tbe history of tbe show— and It covers seventeen eeaaons—tbe 8. W. Brundage Bbowa pulled Into a stand, set up and exhibited without a license or a permit, and this was at Estbervllle, la., tbe week of July 81.

When M. T. Clark called on Mayor Groves for a reader tbe Mayor turned a deaf ear to the agents' appeal, tbe Mayor advising In tbe most emphatic and positive language "that no carni¬ val would be allowed in tbe limits of Estherville as long as be was Mayor, that tbe town was against tbst form of entertainment and that an agent bad just as much chance to bring a carnival to F.stbervllle, and with the permission of bis Honor, as be would to bring In a case of smalliHvx.

Mayor Groves stated that tbe town bad been “stung." “pestered” and “robbed" with car¬ nivals in tbe past; that all of them, or moat of tbrni, bad given the community a lot of trouble with “llat Joints," “questionable ahowa," fights and what not. and that In tbe future it was his Intention to keep them out.

Mr. Clark presented bis credentials from towns and eltles in Iowa, and this secured for< him an audience with the Mayor. After about one hour's conversation witb the Mayor bis honor made a conditlonri proposition to tbe agent: That if hr would bring bis show In and demonstrate It to tbe cltlxeus and tbe city oflicials, and if it was as clean, pure and whole¬ some as represented, then a permit would be granted, and at a very reasonable rate.

The sgent left Kstherville. and the publicity squad. In charge of Ben. 8. Benson, followed In. THie locsl papers. In addition to sixteen out-of- town pai>ers. were set in setion for tbe canse of the carnival, and for two weeks every pa¬ per in the trade territory of Estherville, Inclnd- Ing four publications at this prosperous rail¬ road town and theatrical center, carried mat¬ ter for tbe Brundage Shows, and with tbe re¬ sult that crowds were the rule every day of tbe merriment.

For two days the Mayor and his Inspection Board tested, tasted, tried, tempted and tolerated; then, finding that the 8. W. Brundage Shows actually did “comply with the pure show laws," and that what the agent said were facta, a li¬ cense was given the shows to carry on their attrai-tions for the rest of the week.

Estherville and community sure bestowed a lot of praise, |iomp and patronage on tbe Bmnd- age troupe. Mayor Groves being especially de- lightevi with the week of Joy as presented by the carnival.

INNOVATION RENOVATES

New York, Aug. 11.—Owing to the unusual increase of business the Innovstbm Novelty Manufacturing Company, of .T« E-ist Twenty- first street, has found It necessary to enlarge Its IbKir soace. In a recent Interview with William Alsofrom. the writer gleaned the In¬ formation that from recent ad« In The Rlllhoard this enterprising fir i has re<-elveil orders from Kingston. Jamaica and Sydney, Australia. They have one of the finest lines of bath robes, blankets and electric-eyed bears on tbe market and a visit to this plant would convince one of this fact. Wheelmen and all others con¬ nected with tbe trade will always find a wel¬ come awaiting them at tbe Innovation's spaci¬ ous odices.

CAMPBELL’S UNITED SHOWS

The paat career of Campbcll'a United Bbowa records nolhlog from a busluosa standpolot tbit 4-an compare with tbe busiiicm being dono by the shows and concesaluos at Mloueapolia under tha auapicea of tbe Talmud Torab. Tiie openiug uigiit, risliirdsy, August 0, it was axpected that the strenuous publlclly campaign that bad been eondncled for weeka by Al Fisher, onr chief of tbe advertising department, would give ns the big opening, and, the following day being Bno- day, and tbe first time that any caravan bad ever been seen In the city on Babbatb, most naturally be a record-breaker, but on Monday, when a slump was looked for, proved tbe tan¬ ner night, and tbe big lot, 480x010, was liter¬ ally jammed from early evening to midnight, tbe crowd. It waa staM by tb^ In potliion to know, being by far larger than ever before In attendance at any like entertainment.

A notoriously couaervative preaa coini^ new adjectives In tbeir laudatory reviews of the shows, and Mr. Campbell ia balled by tbe re- viewera as tbe apoetle of a new era In eamlval- doB. Tbe committee having In charge tbe Society's Interests, comprising the very best of tile city's basiness men, has already won tbe moat exalted esteem not alone of Mr. Camp^ll and bis exeentive staff, bat as well that of every abowinan and eoneeaslonalre with the caravan. We are to continue balance of this week. Inclodlng another Bnnday, and expecta¬ tions that onr record In Minneapolis will be unprecedented is amply warranted by tba re¬ ception already accorded the big United. Two more cara wilt be added I.ere because of tbe addition of other sbowa and enneeaaions.

For tbe balance of tbe season now booked by General Agent Art Davis, up to November, will l>e all fairs and big doings, aud IncIndM tbe Kuutli Shore Country Club Fair In Chicago, be¬ ginning Bepteuiber 18. Among tbe membership of the dull are the editors and amlstants of every proinifieni paper in Chicago, which means the press iiuciit will have nothing to do but provide coiiy.

Peg o' My Heart, playing under the manage¬ ment of J. and N. Tail, celebrated Its loOth performance thla week. It will be taken off In the height of its popularity, owing to the the¬ ater being otherwise engaged—the Royal Strtdl- era, another Tail combination, tilling the breach.

(Took and Handman, two American boys, who stowed away from New York and were subse¬ quently baled before the Judge In Wellington. New Zealand, are now In Sydney. They played a brief season with Fuller In the Dominion, and are now trying to fix with the Tivoli. Harry Stone, the American boxer, has the boys under bis care.

Ben J. Fuller, governing director of the elr- cnit bearing bis name. Is amongst the latest to enlisj. His action haa caused a great deal of anrprise and comment. Those who know Fuller for the very determined fellow he is realise that he win carry ont hla Intention.

Charles Taylor and Ella (Tarrlngton, veteran show folk of the legitimate, will manage the Fuller Hotel. Melbourne.

THE OTHER SIDE A MAHAOEH’S COKPLAIHT

"Being a constant reader of your valuable paper, and several of my people sub¬ scribers, 1 have read with considerable interest all your interesting data in general. And in particular have noted tbe articles about tbe shabby treatment accorded per¬ formers by Bo-called managers. Your articles appear to me to be one-sided, that is to say, 1 never read any statements in your paper as to tbe nnprofeasioDal treatment tbe manager sometimes receives from the actor.

"I have a certain case in point, which I trust you may see fit to publish. A few weeks ago I was in need of a general business actor and ingenue. Noting an At Liberty ad in The BHHtoard to tbe effect that a couple (male and female) were at liberty— male, anything cast . for. also director with scripts; female, ingenue and aonbrette, alngiog and dancing specialties—I got in touch with them and wired $45 for R. R. and expense money from Kausas City, Mo., to Mondovi, Wia. Got them on in good faith, expecting them to be as represented, and to keep them and to give them a long, sore season. 'They arrived—gave them a rehearsal. The man proved very onsatiafactory, tbe woman was a typical aouhrette of twenty years ago, old, worn-out songs and ward¬ robe. They were so bad on my show that 1 didn't let them go on. Mr. - came to me and said be was dissatistled and a notice was tbe result. He took his two weeks, saying be wouldn’t get up in any new parts. I told him he did nut have to. 1 would play his parts, pay him bis money Just the same. Then be came down to the tent at 7:30 and pulled bis. also bis wife’s, trunks out and refused to work. I bad to change tbe bill and wired to Chicago and got another couple tbe next morning. When be quit be owed me $48.

"Not content with this be tried to make trouble for me in tbe town by going to several lawyers and trying to bold me up. with the story that I pay bis R. R. fare on and off the show and agreeing to give hhn a long season, which be would have bad If they were competent and reUable people. Myself and all my people Join me in saying this was about tbe wont piece of unprofessionalism aud Injustice that was ever pulled in the show business. Surely If there be a law to protect ‘the poor actor’ why not make the law two-edged to that ‘the poor manager’ will get a little consideration?**

demic, wMcb as yet shows no signs of abato- ment In the East and lower New England.

The Sparka Show offesed many pisostng feo- tnree. No IndlTldnal performer baa received the applause In Bridgeport In many a day accorded Hillary Long, the upside-down man. Mr. Long done an upside-down single trap that Is a won¬ derful piece of work, be accomplishing the foil ronUne of usual upside-down tricks without once coming down from bis bead balance to a sitting position on the bar, and BnIsb'ng wltb a very snappy whirl. His reckless, but natural, npside-down balance Is the best ever seen here. He later features a walk down stairs on hIs bead, followed by the bead slide from center pole to the ground on a 78-foot cable, and tten for good measure stages the thriller—leaping the gap on his bead oo roller skates. There are otter big show features that several per¬ formers In any dressing room ran accomplish, bat Hillary Long is sn esc< ptlonal performer.

John Holland and Mr. and Mrs. William De- Mott are furnishing good riding numbtrs. Mr. aiMl Mrs. McLain, of the Aerial McLains, stage the prettiest statue act imaginable, using a horse and three dogs. The Raney-Oenncll act of posturing, band-balancing and rings is a fea¬ ture, and the St. Allans, E<lna and Billy, present a feature wire act that shows much Improvement since the writer 6rst knew this clever little couple with the Famous Robinson Shows. Jim Rossi’s little brother Is clowning snccesefnlly, and there are many otters. Including Grant Dock and Barry Mick. This team’s work on the track before the show was a novelty, cleanly done, and a laugh-puller that bas caused more merriment tbrougbout the season than all the

THE NEW BILL The good roads appropriation bill, carrying $88,000,000 for the purtoes of aiding

the various States of the Union in the building of good roods, should be of especial In¬ terest to the showman who today uses the old-fashioned method of getting across the country, sod It should prove es|>ecialiy vsluable in aiding the plans of the circus man¬ agers who have "Innovated” to the estent of starting out for automobile tours of the country, using motor tracks for travel purposes.

This bill bos been signed by the (’resident, and Is now law. It provides that each State assisted shall put up dollar for dollar, and that the apportionment to the various States shall be on the basis of population, number of miles of rural free delivery roads in use, and the upkeep by the States of roads built with Government help.

Once this money is put Into good roads throughout the country, wltb another gte.OOO.bOO added to it by the States aided, the circus manager and proprietor will be In a tetter iioaitioa than ever before to snap tteir dngers in the facea of the autocratic railroad official who seeks to dictate unreasonable terms for travel, either of performers or freight.

Indirectly, also, the eslstence of good roads throughout the greater part of the country should have a decided tendency towards boosting the bos-office receipts, not only of circuses or other traveling amusements, but of the local theaters and nnition picture bouses. Automobiles today are becoming so numerous in the rural districts, despite the present unsatisfactory roadways in a majority of instaners, that with the develop¬ ment of modern IxiiilevanIs leading into the various cities and towns the farmer living fffteen or twenty miles distant from a theater or motion picture bouse would be able to load his family into bis machine and enjoy an evening performance, returning home in ample time to enjoy his regular nigbt’a resf.

Sponsors of the good mads bill made It a imint during arguments in favor of the measure to suggest that smooth, lasting highways would put the man who lives in the country in much closer touch with the affairs of bis nearest town or city.

Certainly that means closer to theaters and amusements, as well as to grocery stores, shoe shops and trading marketa.

Bert Mayo la still the equestrian director, and Jack Pbillipe bas the band. There is not a |>erformer in the dressing room wbo is not deserving of mention, and the elephant and seal acta lived up to the billing. The Sparks Show jumped from Bridgeport to South Bethle¬ hem, Pa., to get away from the epidemic area, and let It be said that the Sparka Show missed no performances, but one parade, and has bad very little labor trouble, although in prosperoua New England practically all oeaaon, all exag¬ gerated reporta to the contrary. Press Agent Herron got a mighty good showliig in the Bridgeport papers. Banner Agent Green enter¬ tained bis sister and a party of girl friends from WlIHmaatlc, Conn., at the Friday matinee. ’I'Ih- show moves very fast. A two-mlle haul In Bridgeport, from Central avenne to the end of Boat Main street, wan not ea^, bnt the parade was down town at 10:18, and more than pleased the people. The Sparks Show Is gaining a very enviable reimtatlon throngh New England and bas a repeating power that many shows can not draw with the heaviest of htUlng. Mr. and Mia. Charles Sparks were entertained Satur¬ day at Woodmont by Mr. and .Mrs. O. W. Good- sell Pax Lndlow was there, and also spent two very enjoyable days around the World’s Pamons Shows.—PAX LUDLOW.

MUTUAL AND FREULER STAND PAT ON STAR POLICY

Cite Success of Richard Bennett in Damaged Goods as Evidence in Support of Argument

— Chaplin Will Next Be Seen in The Adventurer

Kfw York, Auk. 1^-—■uixiuDremeDt of John K. Krfuirr, pre»iil«nt of the Ylutual nim Oorporatiuu, that he would “give a million for another I'hapllu''—meaulug another aalarj like Chaplin’a foi another atar of equal drawing power—haa elicited a whole flock of atatementa from film magnatea on the auhjectM of atara and tbelr relation to the photoplay market.

Meanwhile Mutual and I'reaident Kreuler atand pat on the atar policy. I

It will l>e noted that the Mutual la putting out a large uumlier of productioua under the general deKlgnatlou of Mutual Mtar i'roductlona, featuring a uuml>er of the Mutual'a more im¬ portant atara, among them Mary Milea Ylinter, Richard lieiinett, Helen Ilolmea, William Rua- •ell, Kolb and 'Dili and Florence Turner.

Prealdent Kreuler baa avoided a direct anawer but hia private conference room at the Matual'a Twenty-third atreet oflice baa boiiaed aeveral lm|M>rlant conferencea of late. It may be ex¬ pected that the announcement of a number of Important atar contracta will be forthcoming from the Mutual one of tbeae dajra.

“The public haa made the atara,*’ remarked Mr. Kreuler to a Billboard repreaentatlve, “and It made them by demanding them In ptctnrea and continuing to demand them. All tbla talk ■bout the artiflclal creation of atara by pub¬ licity and advertialng la aimply talk about talk. We can almi point to the 'graveyard of ■ttempta’ where reata tiie fame <if the actora prodiicera tried to make Into atar material.

"When the public geta tired of atara we will bear of It fmm the public flrat, not from the makera of the n'ctiirea.

"In rapid aim-eaalon recently we have offered to the evhibitora pnaliictlona featuring Nat Goodwin, Krank Mllla ami Henry R. IMxey. In ■ abort time they will get Richard Bennett. Illaa MInter and Kolb and Dill, Jnat aa they •re DOW getting Helen Ilolmea and William Rnaaell.

"The bookinga are the beat aort of evidence to me of the exbibitora' acceptance of tbe of¬ fering.

"Bomething of tbe anccena of tbe atar-play ■My be indicated in tbe recorda of Itamaged Oooda, which la abnrtly to be retired from tbe Market, after a blgbly aiicceafol acreen career.

"Tbla picture baa made a very great deal •f money for tbe exbibitora of tbe Unitad ■tatea. Pignrea aa accurate aa may be bad in¬

dicate the public paid tbe exhibitors of the country $bOO,UnO to aee Damaged Gooda. I doubt if any other offering of the year has put 80 much money in tbe box offices of tbe mo¬ tion picture theaters, taken reel for reel.

"A Richard Bennett picture did make this record. Richard Bennett is unmistakably of tbe star class. He brought to tbe screen tbe fame of tbe speaking atar career which has made him a rich man. The public rewarded his pictures on the screen for Just tbe same reason that it paid up at the box-office to see him on tbe stage. The star did make tbe play

THE FABLE OF A MELON Once ui>on a time there waa a luaclona little melon. The little melon grew- In a private patch. The patch had a high board fence around it to keep out nosy intruders, and there

were aigns painted on the gate* which read: “Keep ontV’ "Thi* is private property." and "Intnidera not allowed."

The little private patch belonged to the Pittiibarg A Lake Erie Railroad, and the I’ittidinrg A I.ake Erie Railroad did not welcome vinltora bei-au>e it waa going to have a party, and it had already sent out its own invitations, and being a selfish boat didn't Intend to have hungry folks, not on the calling list, coming around poking out tbeir bats for band-outs.

Every day the little melon grew-. •Is time went on it became very Juicy and ripe and succulent. It bulged with

incatineas; it waa gorged with tempting sweetness. And so the little melon grew and grew.

Then the UttM melon came near to bursting, and, fearing that some naughty boys might jump tba tnnea and plug it. or that It might grow old and leathery for want of |in>icr attentlaa at the psychological moment, the Plttsbnrg A Lake Erie Railroad, which bad been peldng the little melon for lo, many long and anxious moons, invited its evclnslve cotaria of aleek and gouty friends into the patch, and proceeded to wield the knife.

And a grand party It was. Prithee, and they ate until they rolled over on the ground and called alond for a

kind fate to send down a shower of charcoal tablets. And the i>oor friends of the P. A X E. Jnst peeked tbrongb the knot boles In the

fence snd gManed. But they were growing used to such treatment. They never had been InvlteKl inside, and never expected an invitation, and they betook themselves from the little s<)nlnt they had had at the melon party and they canie away from the knot bole and toM the truth.

They told that the P, A X H. was allowing its stockholders an extra dividend of ten per cent; they said the amount of railroad stock bad increased fn'm thirty mil¬ lions to 3fty millions. They said that becanae of the war and of other favorable cir¬ cumstances the railroads were making a very large amount of money. They said that every time the public cricl aloud for easier freight rates or objected Ui a change on the upward sliding scale It reached for its )>ocket handkerchief and went through pathetic maneuvers resembling a sick bovine, putting up the argument that the stockholders could barely realite Qve per cent on their money, when the ibipreine Pourt admits that six Is fair.

They said other dreadful things. They said that show people, who ought to be the railroads' best pals, sinee they

were forced to work together all of the time, are treated with the cvinslderatlon that would be an Insult to a very yellow canine puppy. They told that show |>eople owning cars are made to pay unscrupulonsly high rates for being moved, and nnjustlllable rates for simply standing still, out of the way of .all trallle. They told that show people have never lieen met on a decent business basis by the railroads and that the railroads take cowardly snd low-down advantage of the fact that theatrical iieople must move, and move regularly and rapidly.

Yet the little melon grew to be overfat and waa sliced and distributed. Twenty millions were added to the P. A L. K. capital.

And already another little melon Is beginning to sprmit; and other little melons, all over the country. In other private railroad patches, are expanding and preparing to get under the knife soon, while the public gets an eyeful through the knot bole pro¬ vided by newspaper statistles, and kicks Itself to think It Is so foolish as not to give into Uncle Banung's band the right to play boat at the melon partlea.

Oa account of the wind blowing shoreward a pitch¬ man at once appeared vrith the clothespin con¬ cession (for the nose, as the gas helmet had not been Invented). At a meeting of the cltl- xens It was undecided wbetber to move the town or the whale, nntil Charley Davis came over from Biddeford, and lie had the mammoth staffed with old press notices and exhlhlG-d the munsler all season at the snmmer resorts."

Bob .Ktar Oark

This is the first of six fiv*-fe*l esmefiles pro* finced by tbe American Film Os.. Inc., featuring Kolb and Dill. So negligible is tb* story that

It is hardly necessary to dignify A MltUea for Mery by attempting to ontline this oao, wUeb affords tbe two German somedians tbeir Initial vehicle. Even at that tbe action is eoberent, and Aaron Hoffman succeeded in dlacbarglng bis services satisfactorily. An unscmpoloas drug¬

gist. Oaknm. and two lovers fnmlsb tbe side- Hgbts that project Kolb and Dill into tbe stellar rays. Each member of the east must be given

recognition for tbeir efforts. In fact. little Dode Newton, as Mary at ten, bore her honors quite as well as May Cloy, who portrayed Mary

at eighteen. While some of tbe comedy was a bit far-fetebed, nevertbeless they alwaya kept wltbln the bound* of good taste and carefully

avoided grossness and vulgarity. Not the small¬ est part of tbe value of tbia pietnrs was fur¬

nished by a black and tan dog, which executed bis duty so well that the public win undoubtedly be glad to see more of him. Canines have been

seen to accomplish more dexterous fSats than

this one. but no one in tbe east worked with more sureneso of putting bis part 'over. Con¬ cerning Kolb and Din. they have intreduced a new line of screen comedy. They imitate no¬ body, aad bring a line of funny work to ex- blMtors that Is as nniqn* aad lafilvidaal as

tbeir position in vaudevin* in earlier days. Mo'S punch doubtle** could have been injected Into picture If this film had besa Jsdieloaaiy

Monte it. Karierjohn baa written many ezeel-

ient stories for the screen, but The Patriot, hla latest, may be regarded aa a masterpiece. It bolds one spellbound from start to finish, wlth-

Mt any cheap appeal or makeshift methods. BrIeBy it is the story of one Boh Wiley, one¬ time Philippine soldier, who has staked ont a claim and is washing ont pay dirt along the Mezican border. Be lives only for bis motber- lew boy and his country’a fiag. He strikes a rich vein of gold, and is on tbe road to wealth when hla homestead is anatebed from him by

a pair of crooks—one in charge of tbe Govern¬ ment registry oOce, tbe other bis pal, through

s technicality, the registering of his claim and failing to make certain improvements.

Wiley then goes to Washington, but is turned

down. During hla absence hU son la stricken with fever and dies in tbe hovel of the Indian servant. The rough Westerner's heart is filled with bittemees against his own government, and, broken in spirit and mind, be soba ont bis

heart on the little grave. In revenge he goea into Mexico and Joins Pancbo Bapilla’s ontlaW band, and misleads the American troops guard¬ ing tbe border, which leaves tbe women and children unprotected. That night tbe Mexicans pian a raid. The enormity of bis offense fiaahes across hie mind as he tenderly puts a mother- leaa tot to bed In bis tent, and be rides to where the Mezicans await tbe signal and bolds them sntll the return of the United States soidlers.

William 8. Hart never bad a stronger role, sod althongh a traitor to bis country one feels be has been wronged deeply and is Jnstifled in his actions. Especially touching is tbe scene at the grave of little Boba. A wonderful plc- inre, by a womlerfnl director, wonderfully well acted by a well-selected cast.—BAT.

Little Lady Eileen la a charming and enter¬ taining story of Irish folh-lore. Isidy Eileen, like IVter Pan, beltnred in fairies, and that Is why tbir Irish lassie was rescued from an Imposter ami why site saw the face of her

future husband relieeted on the water In the well.

The fairies become so incensml at him for hla duplicity that they rolled a huge rock down r.mi crushed the impostor to death, leaving Eileen free to marry the man abe loved

Tbe scene showlnr the refiertlon of Eileen’s future husband In thf well, tbe Interior of moving paaaenger tmln, too. are remarkabte examples of the photo¬ graphic art. aa Is also tbe falrlee' dance on ths fairy eierle.

Thia atory, written and diiected by Lynn F. Reynolds, shows tbe deft band of tbe expert. It is well worthy of a position among Bluebird subjects.

This is tbe first prodnetion made by tbe Mir¬ ror Pilma, Inc., and will be released on the

Goodwin's artistry.

The relection of tbe princi(>al female char¬ acter, Zola Telzart. as an lU-deslgnlng adven¬ turess, was not BO fortunate, since she, in many instances, failed to record tbe sincerity of her action. Mary Norton, as Goodwin’s daughter, performed very prettily tbronghont, thereby proving her candidacy for farther screen work. The story relates of a Wall Street oppositioii. where tbe larger firm forces tbe smaller to the wsU, of the revenge wreaked by tbe bankrupt brokers throngh the aid of a treacbeons vam¬ pire.

Tlte above list represents about twenty-eight to thirty per cent of the amusement men wlmm they had planned to arrest In the raid. The re¬ maining ones evaded the police.

Demands for warrants were refused. The pollee asserted that acting on orders from their superiors actual warrants were not necessary. Mr. Deutz»d. however, secure*! his release on M*>n*1ay, and immediately an Indignation meet¬ ing on the part of the harassed amusement pro¬ prietors of Atiautte City was held, and a pro¬ tective organlz.stlon formed by twenty-live of the amusement purve.vors and owners of loeal amusements.

IN HONOLULU

Ban Kranelsro, Aug. 10.—Tbe Ban Franciaco office of The Billboard la in receipt of a newsy letter from Mrs. M. B. Lewis (Nettle, tbe I'exas Fat Girl), who was formerly an attrac¬ tion with Foley ft Burk, and who. for the past year, has been in Honolulu. Nettie has been showing St all tbe plantations and islands in the Hawaiian gronp. and is now contemplating a trip to the Orient. Here ia tbe gist of her communication, and gives a vivid idea of troup- ■ug in the Sandwich Islands:

”1 have made tbe circuit of all tbe Islands except Mollki. and aa that is tbe leper station I have no regrets for missing It. The first thins- I did after <*omlng here was to bay an auto¬ mobile, and I have almost lived In It. Im¬ mediately after the Mid-Pacific Carnival I went to the Island of Hawaii and took the car with me. I had on it my 18x24 tent, with poles, a 7x7 cmnresston top and two suit eases full of ”slnm.” with a man to work concession, spieler on the front of my show, a Kanaka diver, my¬ self and our clothes. We made the entire trip of the Island, playing small towns and planta¬ tions without a breakdown, and only three pnnctnres. I got $214 the first day at Hilo. Hawaii. Is one vast cane field, and when we felt like going sight-seeing we dropped tbe load and went where we felt like It.

“Afterward I went to Kakali. Here I got permission to land at the Hackfleld Landing for $S. I wondered what the ehanre was f*' until wc got* there, then I saw. They rained tho maehine, with me In It, with the donkey engine, and gently deposited ns on a flat ear, after whleh they pulled ns and the sugar train lip to tho top of the hill, pnt a plank np. and the driver ran the maehine down onto the road.

”I expect to go to Manila for the Philippine rsc-nivnl there, and then play some places In China and Japan.”

SOUTHERN FAIR MANAGERS WILL FIGHT RAILWAY PARKING

the fact that a demurrage charge of 92- will be cuarged lh!» fall for idle cara which ■ haye hauled live stock aud other exhibits to tbe ▼arloua fairs.

lie has iiointe<l out that immeasurable dam¬ age trill be dune both to tbe Nasbrille and Mem- phia fairs If exhibitors remain Inactive and do not fight tbe excessive rates which tbe railroads are cluuipiiig un live stock men.

A number of managers have expressed them¬ selves as unable to oiien a live stock exhibit of any sort If the two-dollar rate la added td the regular freight rates.

A Dunilier of aJiowmen, besides tbe Ten¬ nessee fair managers, are planning to be present at tbe Nashville hearing on tbe 21st. They are hoping for something bright to turn up.

The State railroad commissioners are B. A. Enloe, Harvey 11. Hannah and George N. Welsh.

Tbe petition does not attempt to offer a sug¬ gestion for relief. It merely calls attention to tbe fact that transportation charges for shows ' and race horses are already prohibitive in tbe South, and that a handicap like tbe present rate, 92 per day for idle cara. Is'ruining tbe chances of fall fairs, celebrations and home-comings i where several days of exhibition are necessary.

USE ONLY THE BEST The cost is no more, and often less, than yon pay for ordinary corn. Dependable popping quality means more nickel bags to the pound—less

waste—greater profits. Insist on GLOBE BRAND. It gives satisfaction.
