FAVORITE OF OLDEN A-
DAYS ON STAGE DEAD
. j -
Bartholomew, Native Philadel-
phikn, to Be Buried Tomorrow
From Edwin Forrest Home
In the death yesterday of William II.
Bartholomew, the final curtain was rung
dowta- on one of the most .Interesting fig
ures on the American stage of a former
generation a man who had made tens of
thousands forget their troubles In un earlier
day. but who himself had been forgotten
for more than a decade,.
Bartholomew wan'a native Phlladelphlan.
He was born about the year 1830 lu the
vicinity of what Is now Second" street and
Falrmount avenue. His father was a
French glovemaker ihf was strongly op
posed -to the boy's desire, to adopt the stage
'as a profession. Young Bartholomews first
stager appearance was with a semiprofes
elonal aggregation, at Norrlstown at the
age of sixteen. Later .he. was A member
cf the company at the old Drury Theatre,
at Sixth and Chestnut jjtreets, fthd for the
first few years ,U his professional career
he appeared under the stage, name of. W II
llam ir. Allen.
About the year 1865 Bartholomew began
to specialize In pantomime roles and formed
a partnership with James S. Maflltt, later
faiftaarias. the lono fisherman In "Kvan
geline." They took ever Howard's Athen
aeum In Boston, where they gave panto
mime and vuudcvlilo performances, being
pioneers In that form of 'entertainment.
Bartholomew and Maflitt parted company
In the early seventies, and the fenner then'
nppeared In 'The Black Crook," "The Dev
il's Auction,'' "Mazuln" and other extrava
ganzas "of great popularity In that day.
Later Bartholomew returned to the legit
imate stage, and his last appearance was
at the Garrlck, in this city, about twelve
years ago, when ho appeared with McTgan
nnd Frank Bang.?, In "The Kternal City."
Shortly afterward Bartholomew entered
the Kdwln Forrest Ilome for Actors.
Though still physically active and mentully
alert, his memory had completely failed
him and It was Impossible for him to mas
ter his lines. He. could remember men and'
plays of fifty years ago, but was wholly
unable to absorb In his memory anything
that pertained to the present.
Funeral services will be conducted to
morrow morning at 10 o'clock at the Edwin
Forrest Home, Holmesburg.
Conductor Crushed Between Cars
MAHANOY CITY, Pa., Nov. 6. Charles
Hanlon. forty-five years old, a conductor
on the Philadelphia and Reading Hallway
lines, was seriously and perhaps fatally In
jured today when caught between cars of
his own train while cutting an' air connection.
GERMANY ABLE TO FIGHT
FOR YEARS, EXPERTS SAY
American People Misled as to

FRESHMEN VICTORS
IN PENN BOAT RACE
In the annual rowing race between the
sophomore and freshmen elght-oared shell
crews of the University of Pennsylvania,
contested on the Schuylkill River yesterday
morning, the yearling aggregation emerged
the victor by a foot ,
When the first one-quarter mlle'was com
pleted the sophomores were about one-quarter
of a boat length In the van. As the two
shells swept down the estuary the yearlings
gradually began to lessen the gap that
separated them from tho sophomores. As
the contest neared Its close the freshmen
gained slightly, with every stroke, until
within a short distance of the finish they
spurted over the line about the beat of a
stroko In tho lead. ,

WASHINGTON. Nov.
Germany's economic situation will permit
her to fight for years, officials declared to
day, repudiating reports that the Teutons
are "on their last legs." Roth American
nnd Entente circles believe tho American
peoplo have been misled as to Germany's
ability to continue the struggle.
"Excluding the Italian campaign, the
Teutons have tccupled 676,000 square kilo
meters of Allied territory and subjugated
more than 82,000,000 Latins, Slavs and
Semites. Of these, hundreds of thousands
nre virtual slaves to Germany nd her
allies, -working (n German factories, on pub
lic projects or producing foodstuffs f&r tho
Kaiser's armies," said one official.
"The economic returns from conquered
Russian and Rumanian territories have
been heavy In grain and oil, which, together
with Bulgarian and 'Belgian coal fields,
have virtually solved the-Tcuton fuel prob
lem. "From a monetary standpoint Germany Is
profiting by stripping occupied territories of
alt valuables. The Belgian people alone
are paying war Imposts amounting to more
than 480,000,000 francs yearly, and the
taxes Imposed on other conquered coun
tries are enormous."
Determination to preTent "sugar-coated
pills" about Germany's weakness being
tendered the American public Is outspoken
by Allied officials. Only by telling tho truth
about Germany can alleged Indifference' to
the war In some parts of tho country be re
moved, they bellevo. Major General Wood
predicted recently tho war would last from
three to seven years more.

Dear Sirs:
I am sending you a little account
of how Kolynos was used in a far
different way than usual, by my brother,
a soldier on the Peninsula. In each
parcel we always enclosed a tube of
Kolynos.
He landed soon after the first lots,
and water was still very .scarce, they
had none at all, except that kept for
emergency in their bottles, which they
had strict orders not to touch.
Then they were ordered to charge
the enemy I ,
Just before, by i. happy inspiration,
he pulled out his tube of Kolynos, and
with aid of saliva washed it well round
his mouth.
This acted better than water. He
was so pleased that he passed it round
to his pals, who were all done up.
They, too, used It to the last squeeze,
and gave three cheers for "Butler and
his tube!"
(Sighed) W. BUTLER.
Keep Kolynos
notour Kit"
There is a tremendous amount of
human interest in putting up a
"conuy kit" for a soldier.
Every woman working in an aux-'
iliary unit pictures to herself the (sold
ier at the front using the various
articles included in the kit she packs.
. The letter oppositefurnislies a vivid
picture of the unusual emergencies
in which these "parcels" from tender
hands at home may figure.
It will remind every American sold
ier to "keep Kolynos in his kit" and
every woman preparing .a "comfy kit -to
include in it a tuhe of s soldiers9'
