JIM CROW’S TURN ABOUT.
DAN EMMETT, THE ORIGINATOR OF
NEGRO MiNSTiiELSY.
For Yeara Fortune Dealt Generously
With Him, But- the Fickle Jade Has
Now Left Him and HU Fiddle in a
Hew Orleans Dive.
Prom the Fete York Advertiser.
The story told in last Sunday’s Mdcerf iser
of "Pony” Moore and the wealth he has
made in London as a burnt-cork minstrel
will recall the names of many others who
have been equally successful. Among;
them all there is no came so thoroughly
well remembered as that of Dan Emmett.
He was the oiigiuator of negro minstrelsy,
and was for so long a popular favorite that
he might have become one of the wealthiest
men of the country. To-day, however,
after such a long and eventful career, be
plays an old violin in a New Orleans dive.
Of his eirlylife the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette says:
Daniel Decatur Emmett, the founder of
nejro minstrelsy, was born in the town of
Norwalk, 0., and while a child the family
moved to the then villago of Mount Vernon,
in an adjoining county, the native plaoe of
the writer of this article, who was his play.-
fellow.
"Decate,” as he was called by his associ
ates, was a musical genius, particularly as
a violinist, a great mimic aud a fine singer.
He was made up of mirth aud music. While
vet in his teens his violin playing was pro
nounced wonderful, although entirely self
taught.
He used to “Mow and strike” for his father
in the shop. We youngsters would gatherat
the old shop whenever we heard his fiddle,
when be would play and sing for us having
us at times in tears, aud before the big drops
would dry up on our cheeks he would have
us in fits of laughter and mirth. 1 now can
see that he was experimenting with us,
playing upon our passion?. He would sit
upon the anvil and play for us by the hour,
and such music 1 think 1 have never heard
since, as it now oomes floating back to me
down through the dim corridors of time.
Frequently he became carried away by his
own music, becoming utterly oblivious of
cis surroundings; this would be when giv
ing voluntaries, erea ions of his own genius.
Oue summer “Stickney’s Circus” visited
cur town—by the way, who of that time
does not remember that real, legitimate cir
cus, with its flue stud of imported Arabian
horses aud wonderful equestrians * With
this circus was “old Daddy Rice,” the orig
inal Jim Crow, the first white man who
ever sang in black. A small platform was
brought into the ring. Upon this he sang
and danced:
I wheel about, I turn about,
An’ do ;jis so;
An’ every time I turn about
I jump Jim Crow.
Then followed a breakdown.
This always took the audience by storm,
ana it struck “Decate”; it opened up anew
field for his genius to work in. Soon after
he composed and sang his first negro
melody, entitled, “Oh, Jinnie, Is de Hoe
cake Done 1”
De suu am gone bellin' de cloud,
De oberseer am talkin’ loud,
An' I’m so hungry I can't see.
What is It good you've got for tnef
Oh, Jinnie, is de hoecake done. mylub;
Ob, Jinnie, is de hoecake done?
Not long after this our minstrel was miss
ing. The “songbird” had flown, whither,
no one knew, and for a long time—several
years—nothing was beard from him by hi.-,
associates. I have beard that his first en
gagement was in Cincinnati, at the old Dor
field Museum, the place where the “Infer
nal KegUns” were so graphically portrayed
an ingenious piece of mechanism) to the
great wonder of the backwoodsmen and
bogdrivers of the northwest. But he was
first brought prominently before
the public when he organized the
first band of negro minstrels that
was ever formed, the idea being original
with him, called the “Emmett Minstrels.’’
The party consisted of four persons—Dick
Pellham, Jim Linton, Frank Brower and
Emmett. The violin, bones, tambourine
and banjo were the instruments used. Tne
new scheme took immensely, and after
traveling through this country he reorgan
ized his company, adding three or perform
ers to it, aud took them to England, where
they met with a great ovation, and re
turned with their pockets well filled with
English gold.
“Dsn," as he is called by the profession,
on his return visited his parents, who wei e
in reduced circumstances. He rendered the
family very material aid before he left
them. He eduoated an only brother aud
two sisters. The brother became a promi
nent jurist; the sisters married men of
prominence, one of them becoming a prom
lueut authoress.
Just picture to yourself Dun Emmett’s
pigmy troupe of four performers, aud then
oae uf the colossal organizations of to-day.
How things have changed! But I doubt
very much if any large company of the
present tune gives better satisfaction than
did the lesser one in its day, so fresh and
unique.
About this time Ed Christie organized a
troupe in New York, containing ten mem
ber., and was permanently located at No.
•H 4 Broadway. Christie was a Buffalo man.
and his reputed son, George Christie, was
the great attraction in the troupe, being a
fine comedian, song and dance man. The
now venerable Cool White was the inter
locutor. The venture proved a great
bouanza to Christie. The hall was small,
seating only about SOO persons; the conse
quence was that large uumbeni weie turned
away nightly. He claimed tuat this was a
big advertisement for him. “It becomes
the talk of the town,” said he,
is turning hundreds from his doors nightly,
and then the location for this business is the
best in the city. The people come early in
order to secure scats, and I find that a well
packed house has an animating and pleas
ing effect upon the audience, and inspires
Rll^?.eucoura K e ® the performers as well."

1 here is a great deal in this idea. I re- ;
member when Forrest was onoe playing an
engagement in Cincinnati at Pike's opera
home (which it was said that Pike built out ;
of one year’s profits in the whisky trade). 1
entered late, and was surprised to find so
many empty seats. It really worried me,
snd I saw it had the same effect on those
around me. Forrest was playing "Meta-
which always took well iu the
Jtwt. The house was a big one, paying
handsomely, but on aecouut of the great
•gating capacity the audience seemed small.
Meeting Forrest next day iu the parlor of
tte Burnet bouse, I asked him if there was
anything in the idea, tie laid there was a
great deal in it; it bad itg effect on him
night that he had been playing there,
knid that audiences were more en

FLIGHT OF THE WILD DUCK.
The Canvas-3ack Racer Can Make
Two Miles a Minute.
From the Omaha Bee.
A number of gentlemen interested in
shooting were oongregated at Cross’ gun
store last evening discussing the fall season,
when the conversation turned on the speed
of wild ducks, a subject in which the gun
ners of this city will shortly be intensely
interested, and on which there is some di
versity of opinion. John Petty, probably
one of the best shot3 on wild fowl in the
West, said:
“I have had a good deal of experience
with wild fowl, but what I am going to tell
you I have gathered in the main from
others, and it can be relied upon. I can tell
you within a fraction about how much
space any one of them can get over in an
hour. There is not a railroad train that
can hold a candle to the slowest duck that
flies.
“But the canvas-back is the racer of
them all if he lays himsolf out to his work.
When this duck is taking things easy, en
joying a little trip around the block, as it
wore, he goes through the air at the rate of
about eighty miles an h ur. If he has bus
iness somewhere and has to get there be
puts at least two miles oehi and him every
minute aud does it easily. If you don’t be
lieve this just fire square at the leader in a
string of canvas-backs who are out ou a
business cruise some time. Shot trevel pret
ty fast, and it you happen to hit one of the
birds see if it is not the sixth or seventh one
back of the drake or leader. A drake does
not always lead, but generally does if there
is one in the flock; if there are more they
seldom take the lead, but a wise old hen
will be found there. If you wish to bring
her down you must aim at least eight feet
ahead of her, and if she,fails you will find
her a long distance oil—say several hundred
yards,
‘The mallard is slower; it is all he can
do to make a mile a minute, but he can do
it if he wants to. His regular flight is
about forty-five miles an hour.
“Ti e black duck is a close relative of the
mallard, is also slow compared with the
canvas-back, and the pintail, widgeon and
wood-duck are but little faster. The red
head can go easy and uiako ninety miles an
hour as long as lie likes, all day if nocessary.
The blue wing teal, aud his beautiful
cousin, the green wing, can fly side by side
and make UiO in.les an hour without turn
iug a feather.
“And maybe you think a wild goose can't
fly. But he cau. If you see a flock of big
Canadas moving along so high up that they
seem to be scraping the sky with their
backs you would hardly think that thoy
were making 100 miles an hour, but they
are. The wild goose is not much of a pe
destrian, but on the wing he is a bummer."
HEART AGAINST HEART.
Unique Bet on the Gubernatorial Elec
tion—" Red" Smith Too Slow.
FYom the Cinnemnatl Enquirer.
“Red” Smith, of the Eighth ward,believes
in James E. Campbell, and that he will be
the next governor of Ohio. As proof of
this ho has practically staked his physical
riling on the outcome of the election. Auua
Sehuermann, whose beauty has rimed for
her the reputation of the "Belle of the
Ward,’’ is an advocate of Maj. McKinley
and she aud Red have made a most
novel bet on the result. Anna has
bet her heart against Red’s heart
that the major will be the successful
candidate. A pound of candy also enters
into the consideration, and the loser will
deliver his or her heart and the candy to
the winner on Nov. 5 at the north
west corner of Fifth and Plum streets, in
the presence of a great concourse of wit
nesses.
Anna and Red are believed to be in iovs,
and the boys say that on account of Red’s
slowness this unique means bag been chosen
of popping the question. With the excep
tion of the pound of candy it is argued that
the parties to the bet will be about even, no
matter which candidate wins. The result
will be noted with interest by voters of the
Eighth ward.
GOSSIP OF BUSINESS.
Dan Talmagc’s Sous, in this week’s circu
lar ou the rice outlook, say that during
the past two weeks there has been a marked
enlargement of demand for domestic rice,
and fractional advances are being obtained
on all styles. The assortment is much im
proved. Relative values between the dif
ferent grades are now fairly established and
qualities can be had at prices to suit the
wants of any class of trade from common
to fancy. Reports from producing sections
south are not as favorable as at the opening
of the crop. The late or June plantings are
yielding at the thresher and the
pounder much less than the
earlier cuttings, and although
the crop will be a large one, yet it will fall
far short of the amount required for con
sumption from now until the new crop is
reached (September, 1892). Planters are in
good shape financially and have not been
obliged to force sales and thus crowd and
depress the market. On the contrary, ap
preciating somewhat the value of their
product, they have adopted the wise policy
of feeding the demand without unduly
pressing sales.
All kinds of foreign rice are in request,
with Japan in the lead. Prices are reason
atdeand.quality excellent, which accounts
for the large inquiry at the present time in
tue faceof the new crop domestic. Advices
from abroad uniformly point to a harden
ii g of values in the near future, as depleted
stooks can only be replenished at much
higher eoet.
In connection with the above laltnage's
Sons call attention to the tact that after
Jan. 1 the market almost invariably ad
vances, and planters who are able to hold
UDtil that time secure prices which will un
doubtedly more than recompense them for
the cost of carrying. The market tuia year
is under the planters’ control, and by judi
ciously feeding the demand they will be able
to get full value for their product until it is
all marketed, which should be (lone at good
prices.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1891.
AT THB THEATER.
The “County Fair” the Play of the Sea
son si Far.
“The County Fair” was played tor the
first time in Savannah last night, and before
a orowded house. It is the play of the
season so far. It undertakes to present a
picture of New England rural life. How
true the picturs is those who are not famil
iar with yanKee eccentricities cannot de
termine. But there is a good deal of
cosmopolitan human nature in the homely
characters that Mr. Barnard has sketched
which we all can recognize, because lie
manifestations are pretty much the same,
whether in Georgia or New England.
The streugth of the play is in its char
acters, which are supposed to be types.
Some of them are pie:ure?que enough.
Aunt Abigail i9 a charming representation
of the large-hearted, simplo minded coun
try spinster. There is much to admire and
love In her composition, and much
to be amused at. Otis Tucker, her devoted
swam for fourteen years, seems a rather
broa i exaggeration of the country bumpkin,
but Otis is cot disagreeable by any means.
Solon Hammerhead is a familiar sketch,
and his like may be often seen. These are
all essential rustics. The other characters
in the play are not indigenous, though they
all belong to the farm, more or less.
The principal character is a modification
of Widow Be iott, but Abigail Prue gains,
very likely, rather than losjs by being
played by a woman, who, wish complete
command of the ne eisary idiosvucracios,
lacks the asperity and harshness which Neil
Burgess had in the Widow. A go d
humored, rosy old maid, she is neither too
prime, too prudish, nor too practical.
“The County Fair” has carried the idea
of realism on the stage to wh it seems to be
the extreme limit. The production of a
horse race— i real horse race—would appear
rather difficult, but it has been accom
plished m this play with euch marvelous
realism that all the sensations of the race
Course may be experienced. In addit ion to
this extraordinary effect the play is very
elaborately staged, with a careful attention
to detail that renders almost perfect the
sceuio reaiism of the piece.
“The County Fair” will bo played at a
matinee to-day and again to-night.
An Incident of “A Breezy Time.”
One of the brightest shows of its kind
that has been recently 6een in Savannah
was "A Breezy Time” night bef re last.
The play itself is nothing but a skit. The
excellence of the performance is in the
cleverness of the company, which is a good
one throughout. A return engagement will
probably be played in Savannah before the
season ends.
An incident of the show that was not
down on the bills was the rather unexpected
and disastrous result of the trick in which
the comedian, who is supposed to have been
drinking heavily, catches fire. In the play
a lighted rnatrh is held before his mouth
and his breath ignits and burns
a blue flame. The trick is done
with a sponge and a spray of alcohol, in
some way it didn’t work as it ought to have
done, and the oomediau’s face was badly
burneii. A piece of carpet was thrown
over his head to smother the flamee, but
that did but little good, and an application
of cold water and vasallne saved the actor's
countenance. lie did not appear in the rest
of Ihe play.
Prof. Lane's Lecture
Persons desiring to hear Prof. Charles E.
Lane in his lecture on the “History ami
Analysis of Laughter," at the Young Men's
Christian Association gymnasium to-mor
row night, can secure the.r tiokets now.
Rev. C. E. Dowrasn, D. D., of Wesley Meth
odist Episcopal church, says the people can
depend on hearing a good lecture and spend
ing an evening of laughter when they listen
to Prof. Lane. Wlierevor Prof. Lane has
lectured he has delighted his audience and
disappointed none. The Wesleyan Chris
tian Advocate says: "Prof. Lane’s lecture
is philosophical in parts and irresistibly
amusing throughout.”
HAIL AND CBOSSTIK.
Supt. B. Duubam of the Alabama Mid
land railroad srient yesterday in the oity.
This is Bupt. Dunham’s first visit to Savaii
nah since his trial in Montgomery for the
killing of young Cunningham.
The statement of the Richmond and Dan
ville system for the month of Septem er
shows gross earniugs of $1,17.T,513, a loss of
819,557. Operating expenses, however,
show a decrease of 841,281, so that the net
earnings of $471,271 show a gain of $21,728.
From the railroad and ferry reports for
the year 1889 to the New York state rail
road commissioners it is shown that 79,414,-
010 people croa-ed the Hudson river during
the year. Thero were over 300 passenger
trams daily in and ojt of jersey City ami
Hoboken, and over 1,000,000 tons of freight
crossed the river to and from New York
aud tie New England states. The number
of people carried ou the ferries between
New York and Brooklyn during the year
1890 was 88,063,509. During the same time
the Brooklyn bridge carried 37,876,411.
The uppermost topic in Wall street just
now is the adjustment of the Richmond
Terminal floating debt. Gen. Samuel
Thomas says: “1 have no knowledge of the
completion of negotiations for the sale of
Terminal bpuds, but I have no doubt a very
favorable arrangement for the Terminal
company will be consummated soon. It bus
ample securities to provide all the money it
needs. The floating debt originated entirely
for new roads aud equipment, and an over
sanguine management expected the bonds
to be taken more than a year ago, bur.
financial disturbances abroad aud in this
country prevented their sale. The return
of the bend buying investment public will
no doubt rapidly absorb tbem, which will
dispose of the so-called floating debt. The
East Tenuesseo div idend question is a mat
ter that will undoubtedly come up at the
meeting of the board about ;Nov. 10. It
would not be proper for me to make any
statement about the dividend before the
meeting. No oae has beau authorized to
make any statement in regard to it. Tbe
board in discussing tbe question will have
the best interests of the company in view.’
A German paper says four-fifths of the
world's steam engines at present In opera
tion have been constructed within the last
quarter of a oeatury. France possesses 47,-
500 stationary engines, 7.000 locomotives
a: and 1,850 marine engines; Germany, 59,000
sta'ionary engines end boilers, 10,00(1 loco
motives ar.d 1,700 marine engiae*; Austria,
only 12,000 stationary engines aud *,BOO
locomotives. The force cf the steam en
glues in operation in the United States is
equal to "7,500,000 horse-power, of those
in Engiaud to 7,000.000, in Ger
many to 4,.*90, (.00, in France to
3,000,000 and in Austria to 1,500,000
horse-power. In these figures the horse
power of locomotives is not included: in the
beginning of 1800 the total number of the
world’s locomotives amounted to 105,000,
representing from 5,5(0,000 to 7,000,000
horse-power. Taking the figures as 8,000,000
only, this gives the total horsepower of tne
whole of the steam engiues and locomotives
011 earth as 40,000,000. The horse-power of
a steam engine may be estimated as equiva
lent to the puwer of three horses, ana tbe
power cf a hone as equivalent to that of
seven men. The world’s steam engines,
therefore represent the enormous toial of
1,000,000,000 man, or double the number of
workers i 1 the world, the total population
ot the e> ,r th being estimated at 1,409,000,000
souls.
