DIXON DISCOVERED TOM CAMP v The lengths to which artists and . nrriters will go for their . material "local color", etc., is a source od con ." stant wonder to the lay mind. Thomas Dixon furnished a striking Illustration of this when he was at work upon the manuscript of "The Leopard's Spots," his famous novel which he has at last dramatized and which will be seen here at the Masonic : Opera House , October 13th. , Mr. Dixon had a perfectly clear con ception of his story in mind and was working night and day towards the com pletion of his work. But certain char- .-. acterizations in the book 'bothered, i' him, not a little. . ' Especially that of "Tom Camp," the old Confederate Soldier, whose adventures and tribula tions bear an important part in the action of "The Leopard's Spots." Tom Camp had Mr. Dixon up a tree. He knew exactly what he expected of the old fellow but somehow or other couldn't visualize him exactly as he - wanted to. 1 ' One day while he was in Pittsburg, ; Mr. Dixpn saw a, photograph in a win , dow, He' stopped and studied it closely," ' hardly daring to hope yet thrilling with anticipation. It was a picture of "Tom Camp" in the flesh,-just exactly as the author ' had imagined him. An old man with silver locks grown long, and a patriarchal 'going to nnd him." v ' Mr. Dixon went to Chicago, and to make a long story short, he found the old man, who, sure enough, had been a soldier. , ! ; But alas for dreams. "Tom Camp" was a "Yank." He had fought under Grnt, and how he lived in the Union Soldiers' Home in Chicago. No matter to Mr.' Dixon, he had found his character, for the old man was just the one he wanted. His imagination could easily overlook a little thing like the difference of the color in a uni form. The more he talked to the tancient the more enthused he became was ike having a dream come true. And when Mr. Dixon was producing "The Leopard's Spots" as a play he sent an actor who was to play "Tom" all the way to Chicago for a week to study his ideal. So the character and being of "Tom Camp," the,old Confederate soldier was furnished by one of his former enemies. STAR THEATRE HAS WARNER'S FEATURE PICTURES.

These pictures are said to be the very best that can be produced and those which .have already been seen here were exceptionally good.1 Tomorrow night they will show "Redemption," a subject in three reels which is brim full of interesting scenes.

The face was that of a man who had been handsome in hia youth and still retained the marks of character in his old age. ' A noble forehead sur- mounted brows under which- the deep set eyes gleamed with intelligence and power; The nose was straight and large, the mouth firm. v ' Mr. ' Dixon dashed into the photo grapher's studio . and demanded to know where he might find the original j-of the picture. - The photographer told him it was an ; "art ' stody" that had been made in : Chicago and gave him ' an address, he knew toothing 'about the old man. ' "I'll bet he was a soldier," said Mr. Dixon as he started out of the- studio. "I'll bet he was a Johnny Reb, too." ''What makesTyou think that?" asked .1 the amused photographer.' .

No less than fifteen interpreters are required to keep the 400 performers of the Barnum and Bailey circus on a basis of communication. A trip down the little street of the show grounds, which is lined on either side' with the tents of the performers, is like a visit to the Pike . of the Midway Plaisance of World's Fair days. In that cosmo-' politan stret are the representatives of thirty-two nations. t j One of those dressing tents is known to the show people as "Little Italy." , Another Is called "The Streets of Cairo. A third is the "German i Village." j At the far end of the avenue is found ( a pollyglot blending of no less than fourteen tongues under one canvas top. j This tent is jokingly referred to. as the "Crazy House." The performer who ; has only English at his command is . doomed to silence on . that : street, ' unless he occupies the smallest tent in the, little city, where the American and British subjects dress. - It is an all-European show which the, Barnum and Bailey management will; bring to New Bern, Saturday, October j 4. Over 300 hundred of the performers are making their first trip through America. From Germany come the' Wirth family fM : esquestrians, the Siegrist-Silbon family of aerialists and Hans Faust trainer of the great bell ringing stallions. - France sends Berzac and his mule, and monkey circus, Les Deko and Les Jardy families of equi librists, and the Georgetty family of strong arm jugglers. t , - A - In Italy ; was secured the ' Fortuni family y.
