TUESDAY EVENING, JAN. 27, 1880.
Dead Heads.
A. S. Pumeyer in the " Dramatic News.'
I read your able article Leaded " The
Deadhead System, " Yeu have certainly
struck the nail square en the head as per
tains te this growing evil. But the sys
tem is net by any means confined te the
larger cities. It spreads broadcast ever the
land. There is net a town in the country,
large enough for a combination te step at,
but contains net a few parasitesVhe cling
te, and impose en, the geed nature and
gullibility of the traveling manager or ad
vance agent. The pleas put forward te
gain free admissions te "the show" aie
numerous, and in the main lidiculeus. I
have been in towns where the only object
in life appeared te be hew te see the en
tertainment free of charge, and net a man,
woman or child seemed te have any ether
desire in view, evidently impressed with
the idea that it costs us nothing te give
the entertainment, and that the company
were simply traveling for pleasure. The
hotel keeper net only expects you te pay
his bill, but leeks for at least a half dozen
passes for his folks. The hall man has
his particular friends or reserves a whole
box. The man who hauls your baggage
would like te bring his wife and children,
and should you trust te the local door deor doer
kcc)cr te take charge, you find he also
has his select friends te favor.
Net an order en the treasurer of the
company docs the advance agent sign but
he is met with a request for a pass, and
" Make it two, please. " Your telegrams,
no matter hew important, are held back
till night by the boy, in the hope that
when presented he will be allowed te pass
in.
The telegraph operator himself, not
withstanding you pay for every message
sent or received, directs te you a polite
note modestly requesting seats for three.
He sends this en a telegiaph blank, and in
a telegraph envelope. And, I liave no
ticed, the majority of wiitten requests for
seats call for "three," the writers no
doubt keeping in view the old adage,
' There's luck in odd numbers," and
hoping for the best.
The bill-pestet must liave his "bill
boards" and the shopkeepers their "litho
graph" tickets. Yet of this we de net se
much complain, as we often find that a
few tickets judiciously distributed secure
eligible places for the display of printing
net otherwise obtainable. In the smaller
towns these requests are net se numerous,
but te the extent new in vegue in New
Yerk it is simply outragpeus. I have said
the pleas for free passes are sometimes
ridiculous in their nature. Let me cite a
few of them : As a general thing, the mana
ger or agent of the company will take
charge of the main cntra. ice, and as a doei
keeper in country towns, I can say without
egotism, my experience has been vast and
varied, consequently, knew most of the
devices put forward aud brought te bear
"just te pass in for a few moments."
Fiist the chronic dead beat who approaches
with a light and airy step, a countenance
beaming with geed nature (and gall);
timing himself te reach you after the house
is well tilled, he greets you with the old.
familiar. " Pretty geed house te-night?"
After a little talk he offers you a ten-cent
cigar. Yeu, feeling geed-humored at the
house being fair, accept his proffered
courtesy, and, in the innoceuee of your
heart, wonder what is coming next. He
suggests te you, "This is a pretty geed
show town ; all geed shows like yours de
well ; why don't you step another night ;
the house won't held' cm if you de."
(Sometimes ichen we de, it dent.) Should
the house be bad, he tries te console you
with the fact that the "Posteffico don't
close till 8 o'clock, and when it docs there
will be a rush, sure ;" or he tells you,
"There's a big paity up town," or "a
nigger church revival, and the boys arc all
up tliere," or jocesly informs you" Mrs.
Smith is ratlling of a steve."
Getting, as he thinks, well into your
confidence, he remarks, "I'll just step in
for a moment and take a leek at the
house." Of course, after accepting his
hospitality, he never leeks for refusal, and
when you quietly desire him te "show
cause," the "why and wherefore," he re
tires with an air of injured innocence net
crestfallen, but hurt.
Sometimes, when the performance may
be about half ever, you will be approached
by a well dressed gentleman (?) lounging
up with a self-satisfied air, and, after the
usual "geed house te-night !" proceeds te
slip in. Yeu ask him for his ticket. With
a leek of supreme astonishment, he tells
you : " Why I have my family in there !
I could net come with them as I had te
step at the store. It is closed and I have
conic te take my folks home. Don't want
te leaf "round the hall at night. The show
is half ever and it can't make any differ
ence," etc. The fact is, he has paid for
two admissions and he wants three. Of
course you won't submit te this and he
tells you he " Don't think the show is
much, anyhow ;" he "will hereafter with
draw his patronage, and advise all his
friends te de the same," aud he means
every word he says.
After him, come all the waiters and
bell-boys of the hotel, with a chambermaid
or two, Hanked by the hackmen, who,
having fares inside, think it only fair they
sl-euld be the same. But, of all these
bores, defend me from the newsp.iper cor
respondent whom we meet in some of the
larger towns ! I de net mean he of the
reputable and recognized amusement
sheet, but the chap who represents him
self as the "only authorized correspon
dent of the Squedune Screamer," and, as
he writes regularly for his paper, he will
honor you with a notice. He "just wants
te pass in for a few moments, and he has
a friend with him" they always have
" would veu oblige?" etc.
Yeu may, in the course of the day, have
met a seemingly geed fellow with whom
you have fraternized in the way of refresh
ments. In parting, you tell him te drop
down and sec you, you will ue at tne uoer,
etc. He comes and brings four of his
friends, if net his whole family.
I could fill out columns with funny ex
periences at the deer, but these will suffice.
They fairly show te what extent the free
pass system is carried. The blame rests
with the managers themselves; and as
long as they put up with it, just se long
will it exist.
Name the Paper !
An American newspaper submits te its
readers the following calculation respecting
the number of apples that Adam and Eve
ate. Seme say Eve 8 (ate) and Adam 2
(tee), total 10 ; ethers Eve 8 and Adam 8,
total, 16 ; ethers say if Eve 8 and Adam
8 2, the total is 90 ; but if Eve 8 1 and Adam
8 2, the total is 163 ; if Eve 8 1 and Adam
812, the total is 893 ; if Eve 8 1 1st (ate
one first), and Adam 812. the total is
1,G23 ; if Eve 814 Adam, and Adam
8 12 4 Ere, the total is 8,938 ; if Ere 8 1 4
Adam, ; and Adam 812 4 2 oblige Eve,
the total is 82,056. Still wrong : Eve -when
she 81812 many and probably felt sorry
for it, se Adam in orderte relieTe her grief
812; therefore, if Adam 818142 40fy

Marked for Life.
The Disfigurement of the Embryo King
of
Jnglanu.
A rumor has for some time past been
floating through the social air which has
net been able te find lodgment, owing te
the utter lack of credence with which it
was received. The story came from Eng
land that recently two sons of the Prince
of Wales had been tattooed en the nose.
Everybody laughed at the tale as a prepos
terous joke, but the truth of it is fully
sustained by indisputable proof. Mr. L.
J. Jennings, the correspondent of the New
Yerk World gives the following version of
the affair in his letter under date of Jan
uary 13, printed in yesterday's issue of the
World :
" A misfortune has just befallen the
royal family which I am sure will cause a
shudder te run through the breasts of all
your leaders. The two eldest sons of the
Prince of Wales have actually been tat
tooed en the nose with a bread arrow !
They weie serving, as you are aware, en
beaid the Bacchante as midshipmen. We
all knew, if only from leading Marryatt's
novels, what dare-devil young rapscallions
"middies" are, and the "mess" onboard
the Bacchante probably had little difficul
ty in inducing Prince Albert Victer and his
brother Geerge te allow themselves te be
decorated with an arrow or an anchor (for
accounts vary as te the real sign) upon
their royal noses. The captain of the ship
aud the eilicers will find themselves
in het water, but neither het water nor
anything else will wash out the gunpow
der and Indian ink marks which disfigure
the faces of the future king of England
and his brother. I would net be suspect
ed of jesting ttpen an incident which must
necessarily cause great distress te se ex
cellent a mother as the Princess of Wales,
but of course there is unavoidably a ludi
crous element involved in the affair. The
most eminent surgeons and doctors have
been consulted as te the possibility of ob
literating the tattoo marks, but it is re
ported that no hope has been held out in
any of these quarters. It is the most curi
ous misfortune that has ever overtaken an
English king that he should be marked en
the nose with a bread arrow, like an Ob
jibeway chief or an African savage. If he
lives he will regret his youthful foil',
though that will net restore his nose te its
former state. It must be remembered that
Prince Albert Victer was sixteen years old
en the 8th of this month and therefore he
is net quite such a boy as net te have been
able te form an opinion about the indignity
te which he was exposed. He cannot be
said te be a "mere child." His brother is
fifteen and therefore both of them were
capable of judging whether it was desir
able or net te be tattooed. They decided
that it was desirable and thus have occa
sioned great grief te their parents. If Mr.
Edisen, who invents everything, can new
invent an appliance lev erasing blue tattoo
marks from the human skin the Prince of
Wales will doubtless be very much obliged
te him. Meauwhile, all mothers will un
derstand that great sympathy is felt with
the Priuce of Wales in his present
trouble.
Under the startling headline, "A Terri
ble Tale," the Londen 2'ruth, January 15.
has the following confirmation of the
event : There is no doubt of the truth of
the terrible news that the middies en
beard II. M. S. Bacchante have tattooed a
bread arrow upon the nose of our embryo
king and en that of his royal brother. The
information was communicated at Sar
dingham by Lord Napier of Magdala, and
a telegram was at once despatched, the
reply te which confirmed the sad intelli
gence. Alexander the Great had one
shoulder higher than the ether, and his
courtiers used te affect his imperfection iu
order t imitate their monarch. The court
iers of the Edward VII. will piebably appear
at levees tattooed piefusely with anchors,
bread arrows, imperial crowns and ether
such insignia.
Spanish Belles.
Baltimore Sun, Madrid Letter.
Te-day I was asked by one of the dark
eyed, f.iscinating.graccful and stately dear
ones of Madrid if I would ride out te see
her friends who were arranging costumes
for the coming fetes. I readily as.se itcd.
Hew far de you think was the ride or
drive ? Merely round the corner. But te
walk it with that ilewcry robe, graceful
mantilla and tiny feet of the deep and dark
eyed beauty would be a painful piece of
pedestrianism. What she lacks in walking
she makes up in talking. Whew ! Steam
and electric conversation is nothing te a
Madrid belle's tongue, en topics of cos
tume at least. The brilliant way in which
she criticised Sener Americano and Sener
Juan Ingles, as she styled her previous
Jehn Bull guest, was a caution. " Dees
senor Americano lire en the Pilgrim's Reck
when at home ?" I reply in all simplicity
that I de net, and ask why she puts such
a Puritanical question. "Oh, senor is se cold
and rigid in saying but one yes and one
no, when at least we want a dozen." And
by my troth, she docs dash her is and her
maras about most lavishly. There is net a
semicolon in this belle's sentences, te say
nothing of a period. Bnt what a forest of
points of exclamation ! We alight at
" round the corner,'-" and there I am pre
sented te mamma first, who then presents
me te papa, who in turn presents me te
his son and his five daughters, each of
whom he specially designates by
Christian name, as if I were a
census-taker. Has any one ever seen
a Spanish belle sew? I never have ;
even so-se. Of the half-dozen beauties in
this group, net one of them could put a
thread through the eye of a needle half as
easy as the Biblical camel could proceed
through it. Net one of them ever stitched
in all their lives. Twe only knew hew
crochet-work was done, but never did it.
Their entire lives have been spent in read
ing French novels, unravelling French
mediste riddles of dress and the bills.
They can sing, they can play the piano
and strum the guitar like angels, but te
patch your pantaloons they would struggle
and " die in the breach," absolutely de
feased failures ! They can paint in water
colors all the "still life" your imagination
may desire, but te boil a dish of sweet
potatoes would be a case of "het water
and no feed," as was the event with Briet
mann's belle.
A Minority Judge.
In ene of the Western states a case was
tried, und at its termination the judge
charged the jury aud they retired in con
sultation. Heur after hour passed and no
verdict was brought in. The judge's din
ner hour arrived, and he became hungry
and impatient. Upen inquiry he learned
that one obstinate juryman was holding
out against eleven. That he could net
stand, and he ordered the twelve men te
be brought before him. He told them that
in his charge te them he had se plainly
stated the case and the law that the ver
dict ought te be unanimous, and the man
who permitted his individual opinion te
weigh against the judgment of eleven men
of wisdom was unlit and disqualified ever
again te act in the capacity of a juryman.
At the end of this excited harangue a little
squeaky voice came from one of the jury
men. He said : " Judge, will your honor
allow me te say a word ?" Permission be
ing given, he added : " May it please your
honor, I am the only man en your side."
A Crusade Against Tebacec.
In no ether place where a temple has
been erected has the devil had se much
trouble te build a chapel hard by as in
Oberliu, O., the centre of which town is
occupied by the college, and the circum
ference of which is inhabited chiefly
by landlords who furnish beard for the
hundreds of students. The town is de
voted te the college and is really a part
of it. A few years age a drinking sa
loon was opened there and one dark
night it was permanently closed by the
populace and bodily removed, doraicile
and demijohn, into a field beyond the town
limits. Mere recently a billiard table was
imported from an abandoned city in the
same county for the diversion of a few des
peradoes, who, oddly enough, existed in
the outskirts of the place. Against this
table the citizens organized a crusade, and
" praying bands " surrounded the saloons
and took notes and names of persons en
tering therein. Last wcek it was reported
that a tobacco store is te be opened in
Oberlin, and a call for a mass meeting was
printed and widely ciiculated. The meet
ing was largely attended Tuesday even
ing, and speeches were made, much in the
style of the impassioned call for the con
vention, by several of the leading clergy
men, missionaries and college professors of
the town. The town is new in arms, and
it is net thought likely that the present
hubbub will end in smoke.
