Nothing more pitiable has occurred in "politics" since the time of the Tailors three. At the Guildhall the larger part of the two huge meetings were citizens and freemfyi, and all were residents of London. » ** Far from the noise oi war— unless it be a small grumbling about Sweden — lies Norway, with its wondrous hills and fiords. Thither many Britons have gone for a holiday, and a fine holiday it is. In our illustration are two strapping fisherwomen of Bergen watching a few tourists prowling abcH.it. The fisher-people of Bergen are called " Striler." * * ¥ A FINE Specimen of the Giant Lily Ls to be seen in Royal Park, Greenwich. An idea of the size is given by comparing it with the gardener alongside. He is standing level with the tree, although he appears to be kneeling. The sur- rounding plants come up to his knee. The lily has just added two more, making nineteen in all at the time of writing. It is nine feet high and eleven inches round the stalk near the ground. It is worth a visit. On page 540 is a list of the subscriptions received by me on behalf of the widow and four children of Joseph Thomp- son, who was killed while attempting to stop a runaway horse. As the members of the Stock Exchange have taken the matter up, and subscribed some ;£,200, it is not now necessary to continue the local fund, or that of Black and White Budget. I was in hopes that some of the public men and women who have been blathering about the children in South Africa (for whom everything possible is being done, under the circumstances) might come forward ; but with " A notable archway in the picturesque village of some people, of course, " charity begins- at home is a dead Ombersley, Worcestershire letter. It is to be hoped that they will help the children in South Africa, and noL talk—for political purposes. > NEWS AND VIEWS The picturesque village ofangloboerwar.comOmbersley, Worcestershire, contains the unique archway pictured above, in the shape of a gigantic horseshoe. It most appropriately forms the entra,nce to the village smithj' and -shoeing-forgc. An idea of its height will be gathered from the figures. The smith,- "a brawny man is he," and tall, is leaning against the arch, while one of his assistants holds a broom. The smithy is on the estate of Lord Sandys, and the arch was built by a former Lord Sands, who was aide-de-camp to Wellington at Waterloo. » V * If ever foreign opinion— for which, by the way, all healthy Britons care not one jot nor one tittle — is ever likely to be influenced as to the true inwardness of the nation with respect to the war in South Africa, the proceed- ings of Wednesday last week ought to bring about a little enlightenment. On that day, in the first place, there was a huge concourse of citizens and Londoners at the Guildhall to affirm the resolution, madi„ by the nation nearly two years ago, that this was to be a fight to the finish. It is to be so, and shall be so. Mr. Brodrick, the Secretary of State for War, on the evening of the same day, stated the above fact in a manly, straightforward speech, befitting the straight- forward Englishman that he is. It is not necessary, as a matter of fact, to remind the nation that the nation shall see the matter through, but, as a matter of policy, the nation cannot hear the pleasing words too often from those thai- lead it. On the same evening the Liberal Unionist members of both Houses of Parliament met at the Criterion^ where the Duke of Devonshire and Mr. Chamberlain spoke plainly and clearly on subjects vital to the nation. There was nothing of "the Tailors of Toolcy Street" about the Guildhall meeting. Those three estimable gentle- men met once upon a time and drew up a petition beginning : " We, the people of England.' History repeats itself, \nd thus not long ago in the Queen's Hall we had the spectacle of an excited Welshman reading to a sprinkling of Notting- ham corner boys, to the backwash of Parliament, and to the The tourist season in Norway—Fisherwomen in the assembled scum of Soho, a resolution commencing: "We, Fish Market of Bergen looking at the strangers JULY 20, I9OI BLACK AND WHITE BUDGET :>'D The London and India Docks Com- pany, already in possession of considerable accommodation for the storage of frozen meat, butter, &c., from Australia, New Zealand and the River Plate, intend ex- tending their accommodation by building in the Royal Albert Dock, but at a short distance from the present stores in the Royal Victoria Dock, additional stores capable of receiving- 200,000 sheep or the equivalent in beef and other produce, thereby making the total accommodation there equivalent to 550,000 sheep.

I UNDERSTAND that the ranks of the Middlesex Yeomanry are being filled up rapidly, and that there is every prospect of two new squadrons being speedily formed. Many members of the regiment who have been at the front since February last year are expected home shortly, and among them are several who have received com- missions and been recommended for the Distinguished Service Medal.

(Photo by Sturdee) In the very old churchyard at Colinton, near Edinburgh, there is carefully pre- served a huge iron bottomless coffin. It is a relic of the long past days when the ghouls known as the resurrectionists prowled about seeking bodies for the dissecting-rooms of the medical schools in Edinburgh. The medical men paid from twelve to fourteen pounds for a subject, and were not in any way anxious to in- quire where it came from. In 1828 Edin- burgh was in a fever of excitement oven the Burke and Hare atrocities. These wretches kept a common lodg"ing--house, and murdered nearly two score of persons ere they were discovered. Burke was hanged in presence of an enormous crowd, who cheered to the echo when the hang- man's work was done. * ¥ * In the countr}' churchj-ards near Edin- burgh watchers sat at night with loaded guns.

EJ: Could you tell me how you first got into theatre, your first experiences with theatre? PB: I did my two years in the Royal Navy, and then I went to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, I won a scholarship… EJ: That was RADA? PB: Yes, well, Sir Kenneth Barnes never let us call it anything but ‘the R-A-D-A’. He wouldn’t allow that other word and I won’t ever use it. His sister Irene Vanbrugh would come to the academy occasionally and talk about life in the theatre, and she was so feminine, absolutely lovely. She had long gloves on and carefully took them off, and she taught us how to laugh. While I was at the academy, HM Tennent’s, the leading London management, rang up and said, ‘Will you send us your youngest-looking actor’, and I was the youngest-looking and was taken down to the Piccadilly Theatre where I met Michael Redgrave, who was about to play Macbeth, and I read to him a bit of Fleance and the Third Apparition, ‘Oh that’s fine,’ he said. I was thrilled to meet a film star and my first job was playing the Third Apparition in Macbeth, and he turned to Ena Bowel on the first day of rehearsal and said, ‘He left the academy yesterday’.

THE hospital remained at Dakka until March 25th, 1879, when it was relieved by a field hospital of the 2nd division, which division was then moving up the line of communications to allow the 1st division to push on to Gandamak. General Tytler and his brigade also moved forward at this time to J alalabad, and he was most careful to give strong escorts to the hospital. The writer has in war time been left in imminent danger on occasions without any escort whatever, surrounded by helpless hospital servants and defenceless doolie bearers. No soldier is ever exposed to such risks in ordinary war experience. Sir Sam. Browne was then at Jalalabad, where the headquarters of the 1st division were concentrated. A large hospital had formed there under Surgeon-Major Porter, Medical Staff, who had arrived out from Netley in March. On the writer joining this headquarters hospital his independent existence merged in the larger hospital.

  • A Short History Of
    Formerly the Actors’ Orphanage Fund & the Actors’ Charitable Trust, TACT. A sketch of ACT’s history th to mark our 125 birthday by Robert Ashby, executive director Mrs Kittie Carson, wife of the editor of the Stage newspaper, became increasingly concerned about the welfare of actors and others connected with the theatre, particularly women and children. She felt that provision by other charities and friendly societies was inadequate; she disliked the requirement of several for one to be a member in order to benefit, that many had age restrictions, and that all were run by men. Mrs Carson’s first move in November 1891 was to found the Theatrical Ladies’ Guild (today The Theatrical Guild). Its purpose was quite simply to provide clothing, whether committee members’ cast-offs, donations from supporters, or items sewn and tailored by the Guild’s members themselves. Mrs Carson’s reasoning was that actresses who constantly travelled and who struggled to make ends meet, had no time to sew, and unemployed actresses certainly could not afford new clothes. Her new charity became closely linked with the Ladies’ Needlework Guild, and committee meetings seemed intertwined with ‘sewing bees’. Mrs Carson’s husband, Charles, alerted readers of the Stage to the need for help. The response from readers reinforced Mrs Carson’s sense of urgency in helping the profession’s children. Care of the young “would add solidity and prestige to the drama and its exponents”. Although the Actors’ Benevolent Fund had been asked repeatedly to take on responsibility for the children since 1888, it had been unwilling, already having so many incapacitated adult actors to support.

Copyright 1989 by Martha & Bill Reamy Printed in the U.S.A. Published 1989 by FAMILY LINE PUBLICATIONS INTRODUCTION Every effort has been made to achieve accuracy in this project, but interpreting the enumerator's hand-written material has posed problems. As an aid to deciphering many poorly written and misspelled names, the "Wood's Baltimore City Directory, 1861" was consulted. When an entry was found in the Directory where the first name and occupation agreed with the Census listing and the surname appears to be similar, the City Directory spelling was added in brackets in the text and added to the index. The original enumeration at the National Archives was consulted for all proofreading. The enumerator took great liberties in the spelling of surnames. Sometimes when an entry for a household carried over from one page to another the enumerator changed the spelling of the surname. We have retained both spellings in this book. Surnames were occasionally spelled phonetically, e.g. the name written as Knobloch in the Baltimore City Directory appears as Noblock in the census. The user is cautioned to check the index for all possible variations. In some sections it is obvious that the information was transcribed from the original record column by column rather than across the page, line by line, with frequent misalignment of the data on a particular line.

  • In the Fall of 1912 a Small Group of Interested Men Gathered in The
    In the fall of 1912 a small group of interested men gathered in the capital at Tallahassee to discuss the Boy Scout movement and to consider the advisability of organizing a troop. Among those present were Senator Hudson, Professor A. Williams, R. G. Phillip, E. G. Chesley, Jr., and a few others. A local council was organized with Senator Hudson as president. Mr. E. G. Chesley, Jr. was the first scoutmaster in Tallahassee being the leader and organizer of the original troop number one. The first scouts in the troop were John Gamble, John Christian, Francis Dodd and Carthol Beyers. The original troop grew in activities, influence and members. In a short while another troop known as Troop number two was organized by Mr. R. G. Phillips. In 1914 due to the fact that a large number of the scouts went away to college and others were scattered, the organization went to pieces and for four years the town was without an active troop. Then in 1918 Professor R. M. Sealey of Leon High School revived the interest in scouting. A few of the scouts who came into the organization under Mr. Chesley transferred their membership to the new troop. The new troop appropriated the “number one” of the first troop. Under the able leadership of Professor Sealey, scoutmaster of Troop number one, interest in Scouting grew rapidly. In the early part of 1919 troop number two was organized. Mr. Frank Moor was the scoutmaster. This troop was under the direction of the S. S. of Trinity Methodist Church, number one being under the high school.
