AT THE ACTORS' PLOT BY MONROE H. ROSEN FELD Hail and farewell, Oh, comrade dear : Life's spectacle is o'er; In Summer sweet, in Winter drear, We hear thy voice no more ! And yet, the kindly hand that gave, The heart with impulse pure, Though deep within yon silent grave, In mem'ry still endure! Rest: from the warfare and the strife! Rest! 'tis the ended play of Lite! Oft, 'mid the throng we'll speak of thee. Thy radiant smiles recall; And in the years that still may be Thy voice will softly fall- Thy voice that rang with hearty mirth And fellowship so bright ! Oh. clasp him to thy bosom, earth- Not gone, tho lost to sight! Rest' from the triumph and the strife! Rest' 'tis the ended play of Life! Loved ones will ke?p forever green This mound that folds thy dust' Mansions in yonder realms serene Thv home shall be, we trust The gems of Honesty and Worth, Arid all that manhood gives. These never fade away from earth, Thro' such thy mem'ry lives! Rest ! from the pageaut and the strife! Rest I 'tis the ended play of Life : [iiiiii@iiiiiiaiiiiiii!giiiiiii»iii»iiiiii«iiiiii«'iiiiiit i ^peRTi^o-^iKBRp^ioor-- 1 COMPILED EXPRESSLY FOR THE NEW YORK CLIPPER ANNUAL FOR 1899. AQUATIC.

A. U. claims jurisdiction shall be divided into the fol- 84 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER ANNUAL. lowing classes: Baseball, billiards, bowling, boxing, fen- cing, football, gymnastics, hurdle racing, jumping, la- crosse, lawn tennis, pole leaping, putting shot, (punts, racquets, rowing, running, sculling, skating, swimming, throwing the hammer, tug of war, walking and wrestling. An athlete shall be heldto be a novice in eacli of these twenty-four classes until lie shall have won a prize in competition in that class open to the members of two or more clubs. The winning of such a prize shall prevent his future competition as a novice in that class, although his entry may have been made before he lost his standing as a novice. And of such amateur athletic clubs which, in addition to the adoption of the above definition, shall have a bona fide amateur membership of at least fifty; shall be or- ganized and continue for amateur athletic pursuits of any kind, and shall not have among their members any professional athlete. Western Amateur Athletic Association. An amateur athlete is one who has never competed with or against a professional for a prize ; or who has never competed for a staked bet or other monetary considera- tion, or under a fictitious name ; or who has never, direct- ly or indirectly, either in competition or as an instructor, as an assistant or through any connection whatever with any form of athletic games, obtained any financial con- sideration, either directly or indirectly, who has never sold or pledged any prize or token won or obtained through connection with athletics (this clause is not re- troactive), or whose membership in any athletic organi- zation is of no pecuniary benefit to himself, direct or in- direct; or who, having transgressed any of the foregoing provisions, has been duly reinstated. English and Scottish Amateur athletic Associatk ins An amateur is one who has never competed for a money prize, or monetary consideration, or for any declared wager or staked bet; who has never engaged in, assisted in, "or taught any athletic exercises as a means of pecun- iary gain; and who has never taken part in any competi- tion with anyone who is not an amateur. Exceptions: (a) That amateur athletes shall not lose their amateur status by competing with or against professionals in cricket matches, or in ordinary club football matches for which no prizes are given, or in cup competitions per- mitted by the national football associations or national Rugby unions of England, Ireland, Scotland or Wales, providing that such competitions or matches form no part of, nor have any connection with any athletic meet- ing, (b) That competitions at arms between volunteers and regulars shall not be considered as coming within the scope of the A. A. A. laws, (c) That competitions in offi- cers' races at naval and military athletic meetings (such races being for officers only, and tor which money prizes are not given) shall be exempt from the laws of the A. A. A. disqualifying runners for competing at mixed meet ings. (d) That the championship of the army races be exempt from the effect of this rule, (e) That a paid handicapper is not a professional. — Adopted 1896. A novice is one who has never won a prize in a similar class of competition, i. e., winning a prize for walking would not disqualify for running, and vice versa; but winning a prize for running any distance would dis- qualify for running. This rule does not apply to school and boys' races. United States Golf Association. An amateur golfer shall be a golfer who has never re- ceived a money consideration for playing in a match, or for giving lessons in or examples of his skill in the game, nor laid out nor taken charge of golf links for hire; who has never contended for a money prize in an open compe- tition; who has never carried clubs for hire after attain- ing the age of fifteen years; who has never personally made golf clubs, balls or any other articles connected with the game lor sale, and who on and after Jan. 1, 1897, has never, within the jurisdiction of this associa- tion, played a match game against a professional for a money bet or stake, nor played in a club competition for a money prize or sweepstakes.

Alice Nielsen was born in Nashville, Tenn. Her mu- sical education she received, however, in San Francisco, Cal., where she not only studied under a capable instruc- tress, but where she also obtained valuable practice and stage experience as a member of the opera company at the Tivoli Theatre, where she made her first appearance in 1895. Previous to this, however, she had been for a time connected with a church choir company, a semi pro- fessional organization. While singing at the Tivoli her abilities were recognized by H. Clay Barnabee, of the Bos- tonians, and she accepted his offer to become a member of that company, with which she at first assumed the role of Annabel, in "Robin Hood." The following season she was given the role of Maid Marian, which she filled with much credit. When "The Serenade" was produced she was given the principal soprano role, in which she gained much renown. On Sept. 14, 1897, Miss Nielsen made her stellar debut at the Grand Opera House, Toronto, Can., in •• The Fortune Teller," a comic opera, in three acts, book by Harry H. Smith and music by Victor Herbert. Within a fortnight following this event she presented this work at Wallace's, this city, where she had a lengthy and very successful engagement. Jefferson De Angelis.— This favorite comic opera comedian has had a long and varied experience upon the stage both here and abroad. A sketch of his professional career was printed in The Clii'Pkr Annual of 1«98, and its publication was so recent as to render unnecessary any further reference to his past career. This season he is again touring as a separate star and is w inning great success in "The Jolly Musketeer," a comic opera, written for him by Stanislaus Stange and Julian Edwards. He has presented this work in the Broadway Theatre, this city, where it won success at a bound. Viola Allen. — Few professionals are better known throughout this country than is this talented actress. Perhaps some of her power has come as a hereditary gift, for she is the daughter ol C. Leslie Allen, an excellent, actor, and her mother, who many years ago abandoned the stage, was an actress of recognized ability. Miss Allen has been the leading support of some of the most prominent stars, including John McCullough, the elder Salvini, and Jefferson and Florence. Upon the opening of the Empire Theatre, this city, she became leading lady of the stock company, a position she continuously" filled until last Summer. During that period she played many roles in which she won renow n, and her performance of which did much to secure the success of the plays and establish the prosperity of the house. This season she began her stellar career, and thus far has nu t with un precedented success. Hall Caine wrote for her "The Christian,"' a drama founded upon his own novel of the same name, and in this plav Miss Alien made her stellar debut on Sept. 23, at the Empire Theatre, Albany, N Y She first presented the plav in this city on Oct 10, at the Knickerbocker Theatre, and during her engagement there of six weeks' duration she played to the largest receipts ever taken, at regular ju ices, in a corresponding time, by any dramal ic attraction in this country. Owing to other engagements made by the management of the house Miss Allen was obliged to remove to the Garden Theatre, where she is still playing, and where it is expected she will re- main during the remainder of this season. Robert Bruce Mantell was born m Irvine, Ayrshire, Scotia ml. Feb. 7, 1854. His lather, an Englishman, anil hi- mother, a Scotchwoman, removed to Belfast, Ireland, when Robert was but four years of age, and there he w as reared and educated. He made his professional debut, under the name of Hudson, as the sergeant in "Arrah-na Pogue," in Rochdale, Yorkshire, in 1X74. For four years he had a varied experience on the stage, playing in the support of Miss Marriott, Charles Matthews,* John Dew hurst, Barry Sullivan and MissWallis. During the season of 1878-79 lie came to this country and appeared in the company of Mine. Modjeska. Returning to England, he joined Mr. and Mrs. George S. Knight, when they made their English debut in the Prince of^Wales Theatre, Birm- ingham, on July 28, 1879, playing Dick Freely, in "Otto," and in that character he made his London debut in Sad- lers' Wells Theatre In September, 1880, he rejoined Miss Wallis, to play leading business, and opened in the The atre Royal, Birmingham, as Romeo. On June 7, 1881. they began an engagement in the Olympic Theatre, Lon- don, where he played leading roles in the metropolis for the first time. In October of that year he joined Miss De Grav as leading man. In the latter part of 1882 he re- turned to America and was engaged by John, Stetson to impersonate Sir Clement, lluntingford in "The World," opening at the Grand Opera House in this city. After playing there for two weeks he went on the road for four weeks, and was then recalled to Booth's Theatre, to re- place John Norton as Jack Hearne, in "The Romany Rye," which role he continued to play on tour until the end of the season. The following season he appeared with Fanny Davenport and established himself tho- roughly in popular favor in the role of Loris, in "Fedora," a role which he created in this country at the Fourteenth Street, Theatre, this city. He next appeared as Guilbert Vaughn, in "Called Back," in the Fifth Avenue Theatre, this city, and afterwards in all the principal cities of the United States. The following season he returned to Mis* Davenport, playing his old part of Loris, in "Fedora." He had also opened the Lyceum Theatre, this city, under the management of the late Steele Mackaye, playing the part of Dakala iu his piece of that name. After that sea- son Augustus Pitou launched him as his star before the American public in John Keeler's play of "Tangled Lives." He remained with Mr. Pitou for six years, in which time he added to his repertorv "Monbars," "Corsi- can Brothers," "Hamlet," "Othello," "Marble Heart," "Lady of Lyons," "Romeo and Juliet," "The Veiled Pic- ture" (by Mr. Haven), "The Louisianan" (by Mr. Al- friend), "Parrhasins." "The Husband," "The Queen's Gai ter" (by Espy Williams), and "The Face in the Moon- light," which he produced under Mr. Proctor's manage- ment. He then managed himself for two seasons, and for several seasons past he has been very prosperous under the management of Mart W. Hanley. He is now touring, and has added to his repertory "A Secret War- rant," in which he has won additional fame. Stuart Robson was born in Annapolis, Md., on March 4, 1836. He made his professional debut in 1*52, in John E. Owens' Company, in Baltimore, Md. After that he had a very busy professional career for many years, during which he toured the country with various combinations and also spent considerable time as a member of stock companies in Baltimore, Washington. Philadelphia, New Orleans and Boston. About 1878 he formed a partnership with Wm. H. Crane, which lasted until 1889, during which time they made many important productions, including "The Henrietta." which is still dear to memory. Since the dissolution of his partnership with Mr. Crane he lias produced many new plays, and he has also appeared in a number of the standard comedies. He is this season pre- senting "The Meddler," which had its metropolitan pre- sentation at Wallack's. Richard Mansfield is one of the two sons of the late- Erminia Mansfield-Rudersdorff, a famous singer who came here from Europe, and made this country her home. Mr Mansfield was born about 1856, and claims Heligoland as his birthplace. Much of his earlier life was passed in Bos- ton, Mass., where he was for a time employed in commer- cial pursuits and in journalism He visited Europe early in life, and while in' London his skill as a vocalist, musi- cian and imitator of well known actors made him in de- mand as a social entertainer. He entered professional life in London, joining the German Reeds, and subse- quently played with success at some of the principal Lon- don theatres, doing Sir Joseph in "Pinafore" among other roles. He soon after returned to this country and made his metropolitan debut Sept. 26, 1878. as Dromez, in "Les Manteaux Nous," at the (old) Standard Theatre, New York City He afterwards joined the stock company of the Union Square Theatre. 'He has been for many years a prominent star and has given to the stage some very unique creations. The plays in which lie has won fame, and which he still retains in his repertory, are: "Prince Karl," "AParisian Romance," "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," "Beau Brummell," "Arms and the Man" and "Napoleon." He has also essayed two Shakespearean roles. Richard III and Shylock Mr Mansfield in 1895 leased Harrigan's Theatre' in this city, which he recln istened the Garrick, and in which he hoped to have a career as an actor man- ager, but through lack of satisfactory public support he abandoned this scheme. Other plays which he has pre- sented are: "The Storv of Rodion, the Student," "Cattle Sombras" and "The First Violin." This season he has made an elaborate production of Edmond Rostand's fine poetical drama, "Cyrano de Bergerac." in the title role of which he has won the greatest triumph of his professional career. Yvonne De Treville — This excellent young singer won quick recognition from the New York public as the one bright, redeeming feature of the ill fated "La Fa- lote." when that operetta was produced at the Casino, Match 1, 1897 Her girlish beauty and fresh, well culti vated voice won lor her instant favor As a member of the Castle Square Opera Companv Miss De Treville has- THE NEW YORK CLIPPER ANNUAL. 129 won a series of notable successes in Baltimore, Philadel- phia and Washington, where she appeared in "Lucia di Lammermoor," "The Daughter of the Regiment" and "Faust." Her impersonation of Marguerite, the only role in which she was seen at the American Theatre last sea- son, served to establish her firmly in the favor of local patrons of the Castle Square Opera Company. Last Winter Miss De Treville figured prominently at "the Wal dorf musicales, and earned much critical praise lor her felicitous interpretation of one of the leading roles in the presentation of "Adelaide," in which she was associated with David Bispham and Julie Opp, Mrs. Whiffen and Mrs. Walcott, of the Lyceum Theatre Company. The young prima donna is a pupil of Mine. Marchesi, and en- joyed the distinction of being the youngest member of the class. Miss De Treville is an accomplished harpist. She is at present a member of the Castle Square Opera Co., at the American Theatre, this city, and has won hearty praise in every role in which she has appeared. Adelaide Herrmann, widow of the famous magician, Herrmann the Great, now appears in her new act, "A Night in Japan," in which she has made a pronounced success as a prestidigitatrice. Too much credit can not be given to this plucky little woman, through whose energy and skill the art of magic has been kept up to the highest standard obtained for the mystic art by her late husband To her is due the credit of placing before the public Leon Herrmann as successor to Herrmann the Great, and on whose shoulder the mantle has so gracefully fallen. De Wolf Hopper was born in the City of New York. His father, who was an eminent member of the legal pro- fession, left him a handsome legacy which he immediate ly invested in a comedy company with which he appeared for four years, the last" of his legacy taking flight in an effort to win success with a play entitled "One Hundred Wives." After this he appeared in Edward Harrigan's production of "The Blackbird," and at the close of that engagement he devoted his time to vocal study with the hope of appearing in grand opera. He abandoned this project, however, and became a member of the company of t he Madison Square Theatre. The following year. 1884. he joined the McCaull Opera Co. with which he remained for five years. He began his stella career in 1890, in "Cas ties in the Air." The following season he appeared in "Wang." and with this work entered upon a career which has since been continuously profitable. "Wang" having been retained as his offering for two seasons. Since that time he has presented "Panjandrum," "Dr. Syntax" and "El Capitan." This season he is appearing in "The Charlatan." which early in the Fall he brought to the Knickerbocker Theatre, this city, and which he has since successfully presented in other cities. Etta Reed, the handsome leading lady of Corse Pay- ton's Comedy Co., has gained an enviable standing among patrons of repertory. Her versatility is nightly put to the test, and the difficult task of depicting from six to twelve different roles a week is artistically accomplished. Her wardrobe is admitted to be the finest in repertory, and her general popularity makes her a prominent lac- tor in the success of Mr. Payton's endeavors. Broadhcrst Brothers' Attractions — 'What Hap- pened to Jones" and "Why Smith Left Home," George H. Broadhurst's farces, are among the prominent suc- cessful enterprises of the season. Among the leading members of these organizations are: Mrs. Annie Yea- mans, Helen Bell, Dorothy Usner, Mrs. E. A. Eberle. Marion Gixoux, Ada Craven, Maclvn Arbuckle, J, W. Cope, H. F. Robert and Fred W. Peters. "Brown's in Town."— J. J. Rosenthal's new farce, by Mark E. Swan, is one of the most recent successful bid- ders for public favor. Anna Belmont, Kathryn Oster- man, Bell Davis, J. O. Barrows and John Lancaster are prominent members of the company. The Rays, John and Emma, whose starring tour in "A Hot Old Time'" for last season and this has been a phe- nomenal succcess, have been favorably known for a long time. Mr. Ray, by his unique make up and original methods in Irish comedy, was at all times a sure fire comedian, and Mrs. Ray's robust mode of acting forms a unique contrast. Previous to their return East a few years ago they played extended engagements on the Pa- cific coast. In New York they appeared at Weber & Fields' Broadway Music Hall, also with a road combina- tion. Last season they started out in Edgar Selden's "A Hot Old Time," under the author's management, and at once jumped into popular favor, making the company one of the best paying on the road. This season they are under the management of Edward A. Braden, and "A Hot Old Time," presented by a new company, is playing to enormous receipts. Mr. Ray has made the East his home, and entertained royally last Summer at his large and comfortable residence at Bath Beach, New York. James R. Waite, whose claim to the credit of being the pioneer of popular priced traveling entertainments is generally acknowledged, has been before the public for many years as actor and manager. After a varied expe- rienced legitimate roles, and engagements with a num- ber of the leading companies of the day, he left the pro- fession for a time, and when he returned to the fold it was at the helm of his own company. At that time the several organizations touring in the vicinity of Colorado, where he was then living, were, with but lew exceptions, meeting witli indifferent success, and hedecided that the scale of prices then prevailing was mainly responsible for this. Resolving that the company he contemplated or- ganizing should be conducted upon a policy that would bbviate this difficulty, lie caused the scale of prices to be fixed at an extremely low rate, and afterward made a still further reduction, playing at ten, twenty and thirty cents. These prices have since been maintained, and the first Waite Comedy Company, which be^ran its career in 1880, met with phenomenal success, and played entirely in the West up to 1883. Finding that popular prices and capable productions were generously recognized by the public, he widened his field of" operations, and an Eastern comedy company and an opera organization eventually bore his name. Fortune treated him most kindly, and all three companies have prospered. Mr. Waite spends much of his leisure time at his residence in Poughkeepsie, N. Y.. where ample grounds and a roomy residence afford him every opportunity to entertain his friends in gener ous fashion. Annie Russell was born in 1864 and made her stage debut when only ten years of age. Her earliest successes were, however, gained as a member of the company of the Madison Square Theatre, this city. Ill health finally compelled her to retire from the stage for several years, but since her return to the boards she has gained addi- tional renown in a revival of "Esmeralda," in "The Salt of the Earth," "The Mysterious Mr. Bugle," leading roles with Nat C. Goodwin and in "Sue." Last season she was seen in the last named play in London, Eng., and met with great success. This season she began her stellar career under the management of Charles Frohman in "Catherine," on Oct. 24, 1898, at the Garrick Theatre, this city, where the play had a lengthy run. Corse Payton has become familiar to a majority of theatregoers in the New England States through his con- nection with the high class repertory companies which hear his name. After gaining a wide reputation in the Middle West he decided, five years ago, to enter the more populous Eastern territory, and has since continued a series of uninterrupted successes. Corse Payton's Comedy Co. and Corse Payton's Stock Co. have become established attractions and are rated among the financial and artistic leaders of week stand attractions. Corse Payton's South- ern Stock Co. will be added to his list of attractions at an early date. VAUDEVILLE.

Benjamin* Ht/nting Howell.— The subject of our ■sketch, a lifelike portrait of whom appears upon another page, is the second American oarsman who has achieved the enviable distinction ol' winning the Diamond Sculls at the annual Royal Henley Regatta on the Thames, in so doing defeating the picked scullers of Great Britain and the Continent. He is a spendid specimen of athletic manhood, standing lift, 5in. in height and weighing about lNOtb in condition. He was born in Brooklyn, N. Y T ., Sept. 3, 1875, and after spending his boyhood and youth in his native land went to England for the purpose of com- pliitincrhis education at Cambridge University. Although he had always shown a fondness for the water, his first experience as an oarsman was with the waterman of Trinity Hall, Cambridge, where, start ; ng as a crude landsman, he has risen to the position of captain of the crew, and has won signal honors for his college, as well as for the land of his birth. Entering Cambridge in 1894. he began his training along with the other freshman of his class in October, and continued until he was admitted to the racing forces which contested in the May "hump- ing" races of the various Cambridge crews. The Trinity Hall eight, of which he was a member, won the "head of the river" honors, which signifies the championship of Cambridge, and went to Henley, where, in June, 1895, they won the Grand Challenge Cup, Mr. Howell rowing 6. He had a rugged initiation into open competition during this his firstYrip to Henley. He was in the eight which beat the London Rowing Club on the first day beat Cor- nell University the morning of the second day. and won from New College on the third day. On the afternoon of the second day he was in Trinity Hall's four, which be? t THE NEW YORK CLIPPER ANNUAL. 131 Trinity College, but was beaten by Trinity, Oxford, on the afternoon of tbe third day. Thus he rowed in live races during the three days. In October of the same year he contested with the fours and university eights, open to Cambridge only, and during the succeeding Winter add- ed to his knowledge of oarsmanship by acting as coach. His crew again won "head of the river" in May, 1896, and went to Henley, where they were defeated for the Grand Challenge Cup, he rowing 6. Returning to Cambridge, he took up practice with the sculls, and continued it as diligently as possible thereafter In the November races he rowed 5 in the university trials, and was a member of the Cambridge eight which was beaten by Oxford in the Spring of 1897. In the May races he won the university double sculls, pulling stroke, and was beaten in the pair oars, but his crew again won "head of the river,'' and went to Henley for another trv for the Grand Challenge Cup. The Trinity Hall eight defeated the London Row ingClub in their trial, but was defeated by New College on t he second day of the regatta It was at this time that he made his first try at the Diamond Sculls In the ■first trial he handily defeated McHenry, hut fell before the prowess of his countryman, Ten Eyck, in his next heat, being beaten by half a length. During the three days of tbe meeting he consequently rowed in one eight the first day, an eight and a single scull the second and a single scull the third day Encouraged by bis excellent showing as a sculler, he, within a few weeks, was one of a held of five which went out for the Wingfleld Sculls, the symbol of the amateur championship of England. At the end of the four miles and a quarter he found himself second to II. T. Blackstaffe, whom he had convinced of hi* ability as a wielder of tbe sculls. Proving that his ability as an oarsman had been recognized by his fellows, he was that Autumn elected captain of Trinity Hall's crew, but an unfortunate accident temporarily curbed his usefulnesss in that capacity. During the third day of his fall practice he came in collision with another shell, the bow of which pierced his leg through and through Although the distressing mishap put him out of commis- sion during preparations for the Spring races, he came around in shape for the May contests, where reverses fol lowed him. He was in a dead heat for the university pairs, the struggle ending in record time, and was defeat- ed in the university doubles Trinity Hall's eight next went to the eventful Henley regatta of 1898 The aspira- tions of the crew, in so far 'as the Challenge Cup was con cerned, were nipped in the bud by the London Rowing Club on the first day, but Mr. Howell went into the Dia mond Sculls undaunted. Following Trinity HalUs defeat in the morning, he won bis trial for the Sculls from A. F G. Everett, in 8m. 32s., thereby establishing a new rec- ord for the event. H. W. Stout felt the power of his oars in his trial on the second day, and H. T. Blackstalfe proved a victim in the final heat, the afternoon following, when he lowered his own record for the event to 8m. 29s. He next made his second essay at the \YingfieId Sculls, defeating C R. Thorn in his first heat and thereby se curing the right to challenge the holder, II. T. Black staffe His heat with the holder was decided June 23 last, when he won in 22m. 56 :, 5 s., hein. from which it will be noted that be is not noticeably overburdened with superfluous flesh He has achieved the enviable position he holds in n re- markably brief period of time, never having engaged In a race in public until the Spring ol 1897, and then only in the dual field games between tbe University ol Pennsyl- vania (in which institution be is a student) and Harvard University, and at the annual field meeting of the Inter- collegiate Athletic Association. Tbe first occasion marked his debut as a sprinter, and he succumbed to "stage fright." At the intercollegiate games hedid better, gain- ing third place in the one furlong run At the New Jer- sey Athletic Club Carnival, later in the same year, he won the sixty yards run. His next appearance was made in the relay races at Boston, Mass., Feb. 5, 1898, he being on the University of Pennsylvania team. On April 23 he won a furlong handicap at Princeton University At the intercollegiate relay races be was a member of the Penn- sylvania team, and he also won a special one hundred and twenty yards race from B J. Wefers, April 30. At the dual field meeting between the University of Pennsyl vania and Cornell University, May 21, he was successful in both the "hundred" and "two twenty," and he re- peated this trick on the occasion of the intercollegiate championships. May 28. At the games held by the New Jersey Athletic Club on Decoration Day, May 30, he cap- tured the three hundred yards sprint. These were the only events in which he has participated during his ca- reer as an athlete, and it must be admitted that they bear convincing testimony to his superior ability as a short distance runner. Tbe time accomplished by him at the intercollegiate sanies in 1898 was as follows: One hun- dred yards, IDs' ; one furlong, 21 :, 5 s., J. H. Rush, the speedy Princeton runner, finishing second on both occa- sions. Still greater things may be expected from him be fore the season of 1899 closes. I Mykr Prixsteix.— This remarkable broad jumper, the present holder of the intercollegiate championship, and who has to his credit the American record for the run- ning long jump, was born at Stutzeen, Poland, Russia, in December, 1878, and has, therefore, not yet attained his majority. He is 5ft. 7 7-10in. tall and in condition weighs 1421t). His career as an athlete commenced in 1895. when be achieved his first victory in the field, winning the run- ning long jump at the games held by the Young Men's Christian Association at Syracuse. N. Y., where he re- sides and is a student a" Syracuse University. In 1896 he was a participant in the running long jump at the cham- pionship games of the Metropolitan Association of the Amateur Athletic Union, winning with 20ft. lliu., and in the following year he maintained his right to the title of Metropolitan champion by again winning, this time with 22ft. llin On May 7, 1898,' at games in Syracuse, be won the jump with 23ft. 2^n. He represented bis university on the occasion of the field meeting of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association, May 28, following, w hen he increased his winning distance to 23ft. 7%'m. He was the victor in the same game at the Spring sports of the New York Ath- letic Club, at Travels Island, June 11. when he made tbe then world's record of 23ft 8%in., which has sivce been improved upon by \V. J. M. Newman, the wonderlul Irish jumper. Prinstein was next seen at the annual (ham pionship field meeting of the Amateur Athletic Union, at Chicago, 111., June 23, he then gaining the title of Ameri can amateur champion with a jump of 23ft. 7in. He has not engaged in a jumping contest since then, as athletics are pretty slow in Central New York during the Summer months. He also occasionally has a shy at sprinting, and qualified in the trials at tbe intercollegiate meeting in 1898. and at the N. Y. A. C. games was placed in the first trial heat, but was defeated in the second round. II is run for the long jump measures thirty feet. He is a fresh- man at Syracuse University, and during the three years he still has to represent the institution at tbe intercolle- giate championships he hopes to not only retain his title, but also to regain tbe world's record by materially adding to his distance figures. Ray Dawson.— The name of this high class 'cyclist, who is the holder of the championship of the Intercollegiate Athletic Association, and ex-champion of the Metropoli- tan Athletic Association and the Amateur Atblet ic Union, is very familiar to Clipper readers at all interested m wheeling matters, he having figured prominentlv on the racing path for several years. He is a native of New Jer- sey, having been born at Boonton, where he still resides, July 16. 1876. He is a strongly built man, possessed of both good speed and endurance, and his weight in condi- tion is 1621b. He engaged in a lew races in 1894, winning some and giving lair promise of developing into a last rider. He attracted the attention of that shrewd man ager and experienced judge, Tom YV. Eck, himself a vet- eran rider of prominence, w ith whom he went on a tour of the Southern States in 1895, where he won a number of races at Savannah, Ga., and Charleston, S. C, defeating tbe fastest amateurs of that section of the country, and also scoring a victory over \V. Hyslop, then champion of Canada. Returning home, he won the New Jersey ama- teur championship that year, which achievement lie has repeated each succeeding year. He has also won the championship of the Amateur Athletic Union and the Metropolitan Association of the A. A. U. In 1^97, in com panv with I. A. Powell, he toured the New York circuit, between them capturing all but one or two of the open amateur events. He w is a member that vear of the Col- umbia University intercollegiate team, and individually 132 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER ANNUAL. won more points than any other competitor. In 1898 he was again on the Columbia team, winning both the half- mile and one mile 'cycling events, and being again ahead with points, scoring* sixteen to his nearest" competitor's eight Mr. Dawson has been elected captain of the Col- umbia University 'cycle team for 1899. Ernest C. White.— The presentholder of the all around amateur athletic championship was born at Cohocton, N. Y., March 12, lb72, stands 5ft 9%in. in height, and weighs 1801b in condition. His first appearance as a pub- lic performer in the athletic field was made in 1894, when he took part in running events, ranging from one hundred yards to halt a mile, with varying success. He was a member of Cornell University's track team in 1896 and 1897, and holds the Cornell record lor putting the 16Mb shot, 39ft. 2in. ; also for throwing the discus, 104ft. \0} 2 m. He also won the all around Cornell championship in 1897. He became a member of the Knickerbocker Athletic Club that year, and competed in the colors of that organization at the A. A. U. all around champion- ship meeting, finishing in fifth place, with 5,157 points. He was more successful at the 1898 all around champion- ship meeting, when he gained first honors, in the colors of the New "Jersey Athletic Club, with a total of 5,243 points. Mr. White has to his credit the following records in competition: One hundred yards run, 10s., from the 4yds. mark, one furlong, 22s., from the 10yds. mark; putting 161b shot. 39ft. 2m. ; throwing the 161b hammer, 108ft. 9>ain.; pole vault, 9ft. 6^in. ; quarter mile run, 53%s. ; throwing discus, 104ft. lO^in. ; half mile run, 2m. 9*£s ; 120yds. hurdle race, 16^ 6 s. , standing long jump, lOtt. J£in. ; standing high .pimp, 4ft. 8in. , running long jump, 20ft. 6in. ; standing nigh jump, 5ft. 6%in. for the past nine years he has played football, five years on the Elmira Athletic Club team, two years at Cornell Uni- versity ('95 and '96 teams) and two years for the University of Buffalo, he being captain of the letter's 1898 team. He has played with credit in all positions except quarter back. His physical statistics are as follow: chest, in- flated, 46in. ; natural, 42*;,in.; upper arm, 15^2in. ; lower arm, 12%in. ; waist, 30%in. ; thigh, 23%in. , calf, 15%in.; neck, 16in. ; lung capacity. 400 cubic inches. Frank McDaniels.— This speedy Western ice skater and long jumper on skares is a native of Minnesota, having been born at Kasota, Dec. 2, 1874, is of Scotch- English descent, stands 5ft. 6in. in height, and weighs in condition 1471b. He has always been fond of athletic sports, learned to skate at six years of age, and when eighteen years old lifted with hands alone, free from the ground, 9001b, dead weight. When still in his teens he became quite an expert wrestler, and could "down" most of the young fellows in his section. He began pub- lic racing in the Winter of 1894-95, and underwent a regular course of training under Mr. Docken, of .Minne- apolis, in the Winter of 1896, when he participated in the championship races of the National Amateur Skating Association. His performances at that time were as fol- low: Jan. 23, 1896, second to Harley Davidson in race for three miles championship of the 'Twin Cities. Jan 25, second to John Nilsson m race for five miles champion- ship of Minnesota; third to J. K. McCulloch and J. Nilsson for five miles national championship, second to J. Nilsson for one mile State championship; second to J. K McCul- loch in ten miles open race. Jan. 29, third to J. K. McCul- loch and O. A. Rudd in race for one mile national cham- pionship; second to J. K. McCulloch in race for ten miles national championship, O. A. Rudd finishing third, and L. Johnson fourth. The.-e performances, although not rep- resenting victories, were highly creditable to Mr. McDan- iels, as the time was excellent and the victors real cham- pions, who had previously won their spurs. He had won the State championship at one and three miles the pre- ceeding year, and in the Winter of 1897 he again won the state championship. At the opening of South Side Park, Minneapolis. Dec. 26, 1S97, McDaniels, who previously had made a record of 18ft. 7? 4 in.. in a trial against the exist- ing figures, cleared a distance of 21ft. 7in in a running long jump on skates, which now constitutes the world's record. He is strongly imbued with a desire to increase Ins list of conquests, as also to enlarge the sphere of his usefulness on the sreel blades, and it is most likely that he will be found among the competitors at the next an- nual championship meeting in the East, and that he will gain fresh laurels there and elsewhere during the season.

JKg=- "In these days of the vaudeville theatre's triumph, when notables from the 'legitimate stage' are vying for honors. Mr. Proctor's playhouses have become the most prolific of producing theatres in New York. Hardly a week goes by that some aspirant for distinction in the new field, or players who have won a standing there, does uot bring out a new piece at these houses. So common has been this practice since the regular Fall season began that the Monday afternoon audiences always show a sprinkling of first night faces, attracted by the dramatic noveltivN of the bill. Y\"hen we consider that most of these little plays require expensive and tasteful sc uery, and are in their way an epitome of what is shown in the four act comedy or farce, we find ourselves treating the continuous performance house with great respect, and we discover that there is a manager in this popular branch of the theatrical business who>e theatres have the honor of giving the world more new productions in a month than many managers who flatter themselves that they are something of producers turn out in a season." — JOHN K.

MANCHESTER PALACE OF VARIETIES.— There was a large audience at this house last night, and the pro- gramme that was presented was again filled with "stars" and advanced artistes. Of the new arrivals, JULES AND ELLA GARRISON, who are here on tlieir first visit to Manchester, gave an original burlesque, entitled "A Bit of Nonsense." This not only included absurdities and extremes, but a burlesque tragedy and some clever acting, a patriotic and powerful recitation, also a sensational strangulation scone, followed by a dance, which really showed that after all the strangulation was reallv A BIT OF NONSENCE. The burlesque rilled the house with frequent laughter, and finished in the midst of loud applause.— MANCHESTER STANDARD. Our Permanent LOIVDOIV address is 6 PANTON ST. (Haymarket), W.
