Master Violin-Maker Clark Returns: to Workshop Again

Enfeebled by old age and disease, from which he has suffered accutely for the last several mouths. Alvin H. Clark, aged 7, believed by many prominent musicians and instrument manufacturers to bo the Stradivarlus of America, is passing away the shortening days of his life in his little two-room workshop and home at 14 South Fifth street. Reclining in a large chair In the small room filled with tools with which he has worked since a boy, hi-re and there a product of his hands and mind, hoary-haired and showing signs of ravages of time and human ;t I I I let ion, the old violin maker and master presents a beautiful picture, as he sits idly dreaming of the golden past or works intermittenly on Instruments, to whose making he has given the fruitful years of his life. And in the dim little rooms which have sheltered the old man for many years there hangs tho shadow of tragedy and pathos. Years ago death robbed him of his life companion and unrelenting time also has taken from him the companions of his youth. So now he spends the declining days almost alone and unattended. One meal n day he takes at a nearby restaurant; all other wants he provides for himself within the enclosures of the little rooms. Friends call on him now and then but they are persons whom recent conditions and later years have brought to his acquaintance. Only a few of the people with whom he grew up are Jiving now; he has outlived them all. Mr. Clark is suffering from jaundice, believed to be duo to a malignant cause, and his flay a are thought to 1m rapidly nearing an end. lie was taken to the Held Memorial hospital several months ago, but he was never satisfied with being there, and did not rest easily until his repeated requests were heeded and he was returned to his little shop on South Fifth street. Violins shaped in the hands of Alvin Clark are now being played before enraptured audiences by some of the most prominent musicians in the country. Hugh McGibney, formerly of this city, now of Indianapolis, and probably tho leading violinist of Indiana, uses solely a violin that is the handiwork of Mr. Clark, while a number of Pittsburg musicians and Eastern concert players use only violins made by Mr. Clark. The Instruments turned out by Mr. Clark have been made entirely by hand, from materials carefully selectSCARES JMVITHESS Court Tells Him Wife Desertion Is Criminal. James Wallace, who admitted he left his wife, Lulu May. because he did not wish to live with her longer, learned from Judge Fox of the circuit court the possible penalties of such action ou Thursday. Wallace Is defendant in a divorce proceeding instituted by his wife and was brought to the court to enter an appearance in the case and make whatever defense he might have. However, he informed the court of his willingness for his wife securing a divorce, admitting he did not live with her and had not for two years and also that he had not supplied her with provisions or money with which to obtain the same during the last two years simply because he did not want to. When Judge Fox asked him whether he knew he was stepping into the lnitentlary by such admissions, he turned red and admitted he did not know that so serious consequences might result from his actions. It Is unlikely any criminal prosecution will be Instituted. Mrs. Wallace was given a decree of separation. She waa present on Thursday but did not testify, having Informed the court of her trials on Wednesday. Wallace has brilliant red hair and had to be requested to remove his rubber hat, while addressing the court.

ed and have been subject to the utmost care in their making. Already, even within the maker's lifetime, a high figure has been set upon Clark's instruments and they are increasing in value each year, for violins, particularly those made by hand, grow

better with time. The opinion hasj been expressed by men in a position I to know tjiat ultimately Clark's violins' will be treasured as much as those of Stradivarius are now, and that the name of Clark will be held in the same esteem and honor as the great German master. Mr. Clark commenced work upon his first violin when a boy of about 15 years on the old Clark homestead in New York. It was a few years later that he removed to Richmond and he has been a continual resident of this city ever since. He has never been engaged in anything but making and repairing violins. The number which he has made is -comparatively small. Probably two or three were all he ever made In a year. It was all handwork with Mr. Clark and it took time. The violins were carved out of as few pieces of wood as possible and the result was always perfect instruments. There are quite a number of people in Hlchmond who have violins manufactured by Mr. Clark, and there is probably none of the older instruments in the city but what have been in his hands for repairing. Richmond may some day go down in history as the home of the master violin maker, Alvin I?. Clark.

Tta Craze That Raged In Holland In the Last Century. During the tulip craze in Holland in the last century ia one year the sales aggregated 10,000.(X)0 florins. Holland went tulip mad. The bulbs were quoted ou the S?ock Exchange. Ownership In them was divided into shares. Speculators sold thein short. At one time more tulips were sold thau existed. At Lille a brewer sold his trade and good will in exchange for a bulb, which was thereafter known as the Brewery tulip. In Amsterdam a father gave one by way of dower with his child. Thereafter the variety was known as the Marriage cf My Daughter. At Rotterdam a hungry sailor, happening on a few, mistook them for onions and ate them. The repast became as famous as Cleopatra's pearls and probably ex ceeded it In cost. At The Hague a poor fellow managed to raise a black tulip. The rumor of that vegetablemarvel spread. Presently he was vis lted by a deputation from a syndicate. For that ewe lamb of his the deputa tioa offered LOCK) florins, which he re fused, ne was offered 10.000 florins Still he refused. Cascades of gold were poured before his resisting eyes. Finally, tormented nnd tempted, he succumbed. There and then the deputation trampled that, tulip tinder their feet Afterward it appeared that the syndicate bad already grown a gem precisely similar nnd. unable to bear the idea that a rival existed, had authorized the deputation if needful to offer ten times the nniouut which It paid.

ROW A VVHITEWASHER Champion Johnson Begins , Labors in Frisco Jail. I American Nvvs St-rv !(- San Francisco. .March 30. Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight pugilist of the world this morning began his duties on the whitewash squad of Sheriff Finn's county jail at Ingleside. According to pugilistic records the colored champion's reach is something like 72 inches. According to SherifT Finn's figures there are that many inches, multiplied by 115 to done at the county jail. Jack was aroused via the "eight bell"' system at 5 o'clock. After the scullery work in his cell he was given a banquet consisting of porridge. Then armed with a whitewash brush he started in. Johnson is beginning to realize what he is up against. He has had a taste of prison life and he don't like it. Court interference however is improbable. The court of appeals has decided not to interfere. Johnson's attorneys threaten to go to the superior court today. In addition to Johnson's old troubles, he is threatened with a very sore pitching arm. Wben he first became an inmate of cell 43 at Sheriff Finn's resort, he was vaccinated on the left arm. The sore is beginning to get obstreperous and lively results are looked for in tlm? very near future. The only oasis in Johnson's desert

of woe is probably the fact that Po liceman Ceinar, who was his Nemesis in the racing game, was arrested today for grafting. Ceinar is charged with letting speeders off on the pre sentation of a $5 note. TURKISH TROOPS TO QUELL THE REVOLT (American News Service) Vienna. March 30. Though the re volt in Albania is growing to an alarm ing extent advices from there today stated that Turkey was moving troops and artillery to quell it. Montenegro has been warned to observe neutrality laws and forbid the transportation of arms into the country. The natives, catholics, hitherto enemies, have joined forces against the Turks.

The Rude Wide Spread No. 6

IT'S ALL IN THE BEATER This is absolutely the greatest invention in the manure spreader construction, for the demand has always been for a narrow spreader that would spread wide and spread even. It is easy to make wide spread machines by using paddle wheels and extra attachments, but these only increase draft and absolutely will not give an even spread. THE RUDE WIDE SPREAD does just what we claim and it is accomplished by our peculiar beater construction. The double diagonal cylinder above has the outer ends low in the bed and they throw their part of the load (which is about two-thirds) away from the center and the auxiliary cylinder in the lower part of the bed throws the remainder of the load directly behind the machine, thus filling the center. A Narrow Tread A Wide Spread An Even Spread THE PRACTICAL FARMER wants a MANURE SPREADER that substantially tracks with a wagon; one that will spread a heaped load and spread it evenly; one that spreads beyond the wheels; one that is very strong and one that will not break. This farmer wants the RUDE WIDE SPREAD for it is just that kind of a machine and there is no other on the market that will fill the bill. ; Other Leading Features

The directors of the Pacific Union club do not consider Theodore Roosevelt a desirable guest and after dinner speaker a, a Pacific I'nton club banquet. TItej so decided at a meeting especially called last Friday to weigh and pass upon an enthusiastically expressed desire of some of their members that the former President be ask ed to grace their table on last Monday night, when a sp'endidly appoint ed dinner was given in the club's mansion on Knob bill. The preci.se reason for the decision that lias resulted in no little undertoned grumbling among the Pacific Fnlon men is withheld in club-like silence, but the talk is common that, the grave and worthy governors of the club feared Roosevelt's outspoken ways and trembled at the danger of forthright Rooseveltian statements disturbing the polite atmosphere of the club's banquet hall.
