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." I'Knwo i— .. . A 1 , . 1 - - V t 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 “usiastic when the house was packed, rue s was too large for that city or any cl ‘Tm the west at that time. '* as during this engagement that Fur' tbe realistic scene with the red men the far west. One night w hile playing dstamora- a party of braves, who were ton r returu t° the west from tVashiug .7 P* C., hayiug stopped at Cincinnati tt!2w a * J ° at to St. Louis, attended the reter, oocupying a private box.

Since then I hare in a measure lost sight of him. Like myself, he is getting far along on the downhill side of life. Em mett has no doubt produced as many first- Ciass negro melodies, comic and senti nientai, as any man in America. His "Dixie Land is one of his most popular sonzs, out of which it is estimated that from $>5,000 to soo,ooo has been realized first and last, of which he never realized but a few hundred dollars. The song wa3 made the national air of the south during the war of the re bellion, at which Dan became very indig nant. He wrote the words and toe music of this song in one afternoon. 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. EX-STEtIKEoS IN BUSINESB. To Publish a Newspaper and Run a Grocery. The colored Laborers’ Uulon and Pro* tecttve Association, which caused the late strike of the wharf laborers, warehouse men, etc., has started a more profitable ! business than striking. It has opened a co operative grocery store o > Farm free-, near Zubly, and is arranging to s art two others next week.

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. •liiimen* Liter Regulator ha* never been known le fail to cure all liver disease* —Ail.
