STOCK COMPANY CLOSES MAJESTIC ORGANIZATION TO END ITS SEASON MARCH.

20. Will. Be Succeeded By Another Organization Presenting Lighter Plays. Our. Own Stock company, of the Majestic, will close its season on March 20.

Manager Rice, of the Majestic, who, with Wright Huntington, has been the director of the affairs of the stock company, confirmed todas the rumor which has been in cir. ulation for several days, that. the company was soon to disband, but did not announce the policy of the house beyond the statement that. another. stock company would be maintained during the remainder of the season.

The announcement: will be received with much surprise the thousands of people who have been entertained. br this, high-class organization during the last twenty five weeks. Arrangements are now: being made by Mr. Rice. for the bringing of another stock company to the Majestic, but the details of the new plans are not.

ready today. In reply to the question as to whether a slump in the stock. caused company the business abandonment during of Lent the winter's policy: Mr. Rice stated that while business had fallen off, this was. not the real cause of the closing of the organization.

"Few said -he. "realize the immense amount of work and mental strain endured by the actors who entertain them.

To maintain a stock company at the Majestic all these things are necessary. as the public which pays for the entertainment demands the best and will accept no other. The fact is that the stock company people are all tired out. They must rest. This could not be done and the work go forward." Mr.

Rice added that only during the past few weeks, when he souglit to relieve the strain on' the leading people by, permitting each to have a week's rest. many patrons were heard to. complain of the absence of the actors, instead of recognizing that granting of the vacation was a favor to the favorite player who had entertained them and who was entitled to a rest. "We find." continued Mr. Rice, there 14 this peculiarity about theatre patrons: Thes very best.

plays of the greatest dramatic worth, which are. produced at the greatest expense are the most poorly patronized, while. the light comedies which can be given with less effort and with one-half of the mental strain are the plays which Promptness, Reliabilily Accuracy, Style Cicary Bailey Quality" Cleary Bailey Prompt Printers Producers of High Grade Society and Commercial Printing 1028 Calhoun Street: Home Phone 1782 draw the big crowds." The last remark of Mr. Rice is interpreted to indicate the policy of management of the new company. The company will present one more play after the present week's production, namely, William Gillette's "All the Comforts of Home," and the many friends of the several members of the company will doubtless take advantage of the chance of giving their favorites a.

Regarding Jeffries he said: "I will fight Jeff on a basis of 60 per cent to the winner and 40 to the loser.

I don't see why Jeffries shouldn't me. He fought other colored menHank Griffin, Armstrong and Peter Jackson. I fought Jeffries' brother and why shouldn't he fight me? He is no better than I. "I want to fight Jeffries more than anyone else. I would rather face him than any man in the business and I will fight him any place on earth, indoors or outdoors.

I am satisfied with any number of rounds that pleases Jeff, so as to allow an earned decision. I haven't any preference where I fight. Any old place suits me. I do not want to appear arrogant or presumptuous just because I am champion, but these terms consider fair and if Jeff is willing to fight do not see where he has any excuse to hesitate, Yesterday I said I wouldn't consider a fight in less than six months, but I say now that if Jeff will fight I will meet him in the ring any time, tomorrow, next week, next month or six months from now." Johnson did not name the purge he would demand. "Any statement that am prejudiced about the referee is false," said he.
