Jewish Actress, to Head Dramatic Company. HOW SHE BECAME KNOWN. Played First With Maude Adams In "Tho Littlo Minister" and Won F.imo Under Mrs. Fiokc In "A Light From St. Annes." HnrrlsOn CJrey Flske Is to have a third lending company under his per Boutil iiiuungcu*eu1 next Benson In ad? dition to (lie Becoiul companies ?>f B?ch older L'Tnkc productions ns "Leah Ivloschun" and "Toss of ihu d'Urlior" vlllos" to lour the one night stands.

P.t-rtha Knlleh, the Yiddish lie tress, who hits been seen this year In "Tho Kroulzer Ronutu" and who Is to appear next season in "Sapho und Pinion," the now poetic drama l>y Per ey Muckuye. ' Since the fact became known that Mr. Flsiko had made urranguments tor putting out another company on a par with bis two luiidjng organizations nu? merous reports lilivc been circulated ns to (ho Identity Of the star. The most plausible story hoard ami generally be? lieved was to tile effect that the now star would bo Fernnmln Filsen, who Is now the star Of the Yiddish stork com? pany at the ICallch theater on the Bowery, Now York. Miss Eilsen succeeded Mine. Knlleh as star of the Yiddish company under the direction of Leopold Hpnchnor, Mine. Kulleh's husband, at the open Inn of the current season. She ciiino to the American Academy of Dramatic Arts us a student from the elocution eluss lu Cooper UlllOU, New York. She was the star pupil during her terms In the school and won the gdid lliodnl on her graduation In 1800. She then played the role of the boy in "The Little Min? ister" with Maude Adams and later played for two seasons with' Mrs. FBMKAJiPA BL1SOV.

'J'Ik* name of the play In which Fer? nanda Fllscu will appear has not been announced. She has recently been try Inn various new plays and new ver? sions of old pleees in Yiddish at the ICallch theater. Mr. Fisko has not yet made any announcement ns to the play or the aetress. However, it Is under stood that when the new company Is organised some of the actors from the Manhattan company, whose services will not be essential for Mrs. Flake's next production, Mill be drafted into it as the basis for a strong supporting organisation. F.lslo Junls, now In vaudeville and recently tho star In "Tho Vnnderbljt Cup,'! under the management of Lie blur & Col, Is to be the next Dllllllgham star. Miss .Tunis fulfilled her vaude? ville contract witli Percy Williams only after resisting an application for a re? straining Injunction brought by her former managers. Miss Junls admits that she experts to return to musical comedy In the autumn, but no contract b.is yet been announced. ROBERT BUTLER. Ball Season's Poor Start. A Boston newspaper remarked the other day: "This lias been by all odds tho worst season thus far ever known for major league baseball in the way of weather conditions. The clubs will, however, make up much of their llnan chli losses by double headers later on. Aud the most distasteful condition known to the player Is playing double headers." Wrong ns to tirst statement. The worse sprint,' on record was that of 1S02. it bankrupted a number of minor lenguoa nnd severely strained even tho National league lu Its Brat season as a twelve club league. THE IDEAL WRESTLER. Oliver Courtmancho of Minnoapolis Built Like deck Athlcto. In the "id days of Greece beautifully forineU athletes were produced. The Greeks thought Symmetrien I bodies were us deslrilblC In athletes us special powers resulting from specially do velO|ieil muscles, While the athletes of today develop, as a rule, only the muscles used In their particular events, the ancient Athenians, etc., whether runners, Jump? ers, battlers with the eestus or weight TUB Wlll'.STt.UIl.

As a rule, however, we do not. One ex? ception to the rule Is Oliver Court mnnehe of Minneapolis, a wrestler of stellar ahlllly, who has bcou drawn from life by Curl A. Bohnen of St. I 'Mill. Courtmnnche'n body Is Ideal from a wrestling viewpoint. No part of It Is neglected. The high shoulder mus? cles and the leg muscles are rounded, Strong and elastic. Ills waist Is small. Ills neck Is stout, if his brain Is as well trained as his body, Courtmnnehe should become a champion In his class. NAZZARO IN DEMAND. ' Italian Winner of Kaiser'n Auto Cup Sought by American Car Makers. Speed demons beware! The goblin will git you! Who is the goblin? He Is Nazzaro, the winner of the big auto race In Germany, the recent race for Kaiser Wllhelm's cup. Nazzaro is an Italian, and several American manufacturers have thrown ? out tempting halt for him. They want him to come over here to again com? pete lu the hiir American events. Of course Nazzaro may not be any hotter as a driver than any one else that competed over the German course. His machine may have been the liest. He may have had better luck. But as he won he would be a big drawing card over in the flcklo V. S. That's why the auto builders want lilui. The nazza no. one that gets him will linvc to pay what tin? race track habitues call "big money." Nazzaro is a driver who combines dlacrctlou with daring. His victory was not surprising, as recently be lln Ished second In the Targo-Florio race In Sicily. Nazarro Is well known In this coun? try, having been twice n competitor In the Ynnderbilt cup race, finishing sixth hist year. His most recent suc? cess was in the famous Targo-Florio contest.
