THE PITTSBURG ' DISPATCH, MONDAY, ' APRHj 28, 189 a
THE OIL WELL DEAHA.
Tragedian Keene Recalls His Early
Campaigns About rittsburg.
AN OIL MAN'S PORTABLE THEATER.
Interesting Eecollections of Jo Sefton's
Block Company.
'A LOCAL LAETS IS A WATEEI GRAVE
"When an actor gets to be as old as I am
he forgets niany things," observed Thomas
"W. Keene, the tragedian, as he sat in the
corridor of the Hotel Anderson, the other
evening, 'hnt if I should live to be as old
as tbe traditions of Memnon I conld never
come to Pittsburg without recalling the days
ot 1SG7 and 1868, when I played in tbe stock
company here, with Jo Seiton, in the
building which stood where Harris Theater
now stands. There were Jo Seiton and his
wife, Annie Seiton, and Mrs. lie Forrest
and Oliver Doud Byron, and the O'Neil
girls in the company, but Sefton himself
was the central figure.
"After the regular season Sefton would
send me out into the oil regions starring.
I was plavinc Samlet, ilacbetli and Rich
ard IIL then for the princely salary of S16
a week, and furnishing my own wardrobe.
I remember well the first town we struck
after leaving Pittsburg. It was Pleasant
ville. By the way, there was a Pittsburg
boy along with us named Harrison, now in
the glass business, I understand. But more
of him anon.
LOOKING FOE THE TOWS'.
"Well, we reached Pleasantville. Alight
ing from the train I walked around and
could discern only two buildings, one evi
dently a hotel, the other a store.
'Where is the theater?' I asked of a
man who seemed to comprise tbe population
of PleasantvillcJ
" 'It will be here all right by the time
you are ready to play, this evening, ""replied
the population, coolly.
" "Well, but where are the people to play
to?"
" 'Oh, they'll be here all right.
"I took his word for it. Indeed, that
seemed to be the only thing in the vicinity
to take, and I had to be satisfied with it.
My confidence was not misplaced, either, for
along in the afternoon came a number of
diggers from liouseville, where the wells had
played out, bringing the theater with them,
along with their tools and other baggage. It
tookthem less than an hour to rap up tne
light board shell, which constituted their
Temple of Thespis. So, there was my
theater. But I was still at a loss to know
where my audience was coming lrom, with
only two houses in view.
AN AUDIENCE ON DECK.
".Night came on, however, and a sight
was presented to one poor and hungry actor
that he will never forget. Out from behind
the derricks, along the little hills twinkled
an apparently innumerable number of lan
terns. From places where one would never
dream of a human habitation thronged the
hardy miners, and long before I was ready
to step upon the stage there were 600 or 700
people in the theater.
"Well, we gave them "Richard," and a
more enthusiastic audience yon never saw.
I had sent to a tinshop in Titusville for
some sheets of tin, from which we cnt little
circular pieces and fashioned our armors,
and I tell you Richmond and the crookback
showed up as glittering warriors. That
night was all right. But the next we es
sayed "Hamlet and that was a mistake.
IN A WAIEIJT GBAVE.
"The miners had pitched onr theater over
a little brook. Heavy rains during the fore
noon had swollen the stream, and in the
scene where Laertes jumps into the grave of
Ophelia we had a catastrophe. Young Har
rison, of Pittsburg, whom I mentioned, was
Laertes. The trapdoor in the floor was open
for the grave. Laertes took his desperate
jump. There was a splash, a cry and a
scream from the audience. Laertes had
immersed himself in the swollen stream,
and it took the efforts of half the audience
to rescue him from his watery crave before
he could go on with the performance.
"There were a number of little mishaps
like this, but, notwithstanding them, we
played to good business in the oil settle
ments for 43 weeks and when we came
back to Pittsburg Jo Sefton made me a pres
ent of J900 in addition to my salary, which
was more money than I had ever seen to
gether before."
Mr. Keene plays six weeks more this sea
sou, and goes to Winnipeg. He will open
next season in California with a new play
by Arden Smith. It is entitled "Launce
loL" The story of the play differs from
Tennyson's in so far as to enable Elaine to
entirely recover his health, and to prove
tarn celat "not guilty as charged in the in
dictment." AN UNLUCKY THIRTEEN.
A Baker' Dozen of Unfortunates Before
itlayor Wymnn Vrsterdny.
There were just 13 cases before Mayor
"Wyman yesterday, at his Sunday morning

ordinary class of drunks and disorderlies,
and all were quickly disposed of. But
three were charged with drunkenness; Jo
seph Jackson went to jail for 5 days, John
Shuttinger for 48 hours and William Brady
paid $1 and costs.
Or the disorderlies, William J. Wilkey
paid $10 and costs for striking his wife,
John Gorman and J. H. McFarlin paid 53
each, William Porter paid ?15, James Port
810, Jacob Slitmer only paidjthe costs of his
arrest, and Joseph Schreni, Harry Schnei

TBE PARABLES OF CBRIST.
Earthly Storlrs Willi n Heavenly Menntnp
Tho Snvlor's (Manner of Illmlrntlne Ills
Sermons Ber. W. P. Oldhnm' Saoday
Tnlk What Other Preachers Snld.
Key. W. F. Oldham, pastor of Butler
Street M. E. Church, took for the subject of
his morning discourse yesterday, "The
Parables of Jesus Christ." He called at
tention to the fact that Jesns began preach
ing without the use of illustrations, and
said: "Take, for instance, the Sermon on
the Mount, the most wonderful discourse
ever utteked, which in itself reveals the
divinity of Christ and which, placed beside
the best thincs from thehestmen.riseshighcr
than tbe imagination of men's hearts; the-
best thoughts lrom the best teachers among
men suffering in the contrast, and appearing
like a sermon in the valley; and although
so marvelous, that sermon was without a
single illustration. After this wonderful
sermon Christ never spoke without using
parables."
Of the meaning ol parable the pastor said:
"I remember once trying to explain to a
number of Chinese young men the meaning
of a parable, but they did not get the idea
until a good woman beside me said: 'Boys,
it is an earthly story with a heavenly mean
ing,' and this is one of the best definitions I
have heard."
Continuing, Mr. Oldham said: "Parables
often contain unpalatable truths, which a
man would repel if the meaning was not at
first veiled; and again, they olten contain
truths which may never be revealed to the
hearer why? Because Christ never taught
an unwilling man. 'If a man will do His
will he shall know ot the doctrine. This is
true in nature. Take up a flower; it means
very little to you; study it as a botanist and
the same flower has a ncf meaning. So
God hides His truth in parables; the inner
meaning is passed by unless you seek it
prayerfully.
"Parables contain a marvelous fund of in
formation. Have you ever read anything
anywhere that shows forth the love of God
as tbe story of the Prodigal Son and his re
turn? The parable of the Good Samaritan I
marked a new era in the world giving a
new meaning to neighbor. I do not wonder
that John said: A new commandment I
write unto you, 'Love one another.' "
AS EVEEY-DAT EELIGI0N.
Rev. C. E. Locks Speaks of One That Is
Good at AH Times.
Rev. C. B. Locke, of the Smithfield Street
M. E. Church, last evening, preached on
"A religion that is good for Monday as well
as for Sunday." The speaker spoke of the
proneness of humanity to carry their
doubts and sorrows to their fellow
man for removal or comfort. He
said: "Don't take your doubts to the
Xbrth American Review. Don't take them
to the men who acknowledges that he does
not believe in a Supreme Being. God is in
the world, in our midst daily, to save men
and women, boys and girls. If you are op
pressed by tears or affliction God only
can comfort you through His inspired
word, and yet how many of us for relief go
to volumes compiled by frail mortals.
"If there was more religion in our homes,
workshops and offices there would be much
less insanity in Western Pennsylvania to
day. When a man or woman possesses the
repose of soul which may be obtained by tbe
earnest perusal of the Book Divine, he or
she can meet earthly trials with fortitude."
ONE OF THE EEVELATIONS
The Snbjcct of Another of Ber. J. It. Suther
land's Courso of Lectures
Eev. J. B. Sutherland, D. D., of the
Second Presbyterian Church, last evening
continued his series of lectures explanatory
of the book of Bevelations, and took for his
subject, "The lamb with the seven eyes and
the seven horns." He described the Apos
tle John's vision of heaven, where he saw
the great scroll sealed with seven seals, con
taining all the events of the past and the
future which no one was found worthy to
open either in heaven or upon the earth.
He depicted the apostle's grief and disap
pointment when he found that the book
was still a sealed volume, and his relief
when told that the Lamb (Jesus Christ)
in the midst of the celestial throng, was the
inspired messenger to whom was entrusted
the mission of disclosing these mysteries to
poor humanity. The reverend divine will
continue this series next Sunday evening
bv discoursing on "The Song Sung in
Heaven."
TO HUEHY UP C0NGBESSMEN.
Georcs A. Kelly Going to Washington to
Work for the fehlpplnc Bill.
George A. Kelly, the well-known drug
gist, will leave thi morning for Washing
ton, D. C, to accompany his wife, who is a
delegate to the National Convention of the
Women's Foreign Missionary Society.
While in Washington Mr. Kelly will make
an effort to stir up Congress in regard to the
bill to place the American shipping on an
equality with that of other nations. The
bill is on the House calendar and will come
up shortly. Congressman Dalzell has ex
pressed himself as thoroughly in sympathy
with the measure, and says he will not only
vote for the bill, but will try and get others
to do so.
A committee from the Philadelphia Board
of Trade is in Washington now agitating
the idea of establishing a line of steamers
to ply between the United States and
Africa.
THINKS WALLACE WILL WIN.
Congressman Kerr for the Ex-Senator for
Gubernatorial Ilonors.
Congressman James Kerr, of Clearfield,
was at the Hotel Anderson for a few hours
yesterday. While averse to talking on
political matters on the Sabbath, he relaxed
sufficiently to tell a Dispatch reporter
that he favors the nomination of ex-Senator
Wallace for Governor, and thinks he will
win the honor with ease. If Mr. Wallace
is nominated, Mr. Kerr says, he could be
elected, provided any man of Quay's
naming secures the Republican nomination.
As to a successor to the late Representa
tive Randall, Mr. Kerr thinks Mutchler
should be chosen, as that gentleman, ac
cording to Mr. Kerr's idea, was not only an
intimate friend of Mr. Randall's, but he
also shared the views of the deceased states
man. a
