Good and Had PoInU of I. one Rnna from
the Actnrn Htaiidpolnt.
Long runs, liko most, thing, have
their flood h well an their Imd point.
Mood, bcoanso conntuiit n-jxtitioii no
identifies one with tho clmrneter iniper
oiuitcd thnt it booomps accond imture to
fH'l nnd act it Iteration may in the
end lntike one mechanical, but at leant
it insures a certain tcchniqnc, which,
when inspiration fails, rescues the work
from crudity. Joseph Jefferson once
toldine that in "Tho Rivals" ho had
always Rained nn elTi-et by pulling off
tho fingers of his gloves separately nnd
deliberately to accentuate certain words,
but that under inspiration ho would
throw technique to tho winds and have
tho glove off with one jerk. Who that
has ever seen his Hub can forget those
brilliant greeu gloves and tho fun he
got out of them I
On tho other hand, tho evil effect of
long runs nro indisputable Prominent
among them is a general mental weari
ness which often causes one to forget
tho most familiar lines and to turn
blankly to tho prompter's box or to
somo friondly actor for tho words. This
hnpponod to mo several times, notably
in "Tho Winter's Talc" in London,
where, after playing it 100 nights, I had
to bo prompted in several of Hormione's
great speeches. Edwin Booth, during
tho long run of "Hamlet" at his own
theater, frequently called for tho lines.
An netor who was in his company told
ino that Booth turned to him one night,
and with a look of constein. . lotf asked
what ho was to say next. His mind for
tho moment had liecome a blank. The
actor gave him tho word. Booth began
tho speech, faltered ngnin, was prompt
ed a second time, but finding it impos- i
siblo to contiimo called out in a loud
voico, "Ring down tho curtain."
Many other examples might be cited i
to show how weary tho brain grows aft- j
or acting the snmo' purt six or seven i
times weekly for 100 or 200 consecutivo '
nights, with only tho rest of Kunday to '
distract tho mind. Mary Anderson's l

The wanderer had returned after many
years, and was inquiring about his old '
friends.
"Brown," lio said, "is in tho wholo- '
salo clothing business, I believe." ;
"Wholesale clothing and bicycles," ',
corrected tho native. "Tho firm carrier j
a side lino of bicycles, you kiiow. " !
"And Jones has a grocery storo, I'm !
told."
"Yes. Pull lino of groceries nnd Bull
Run bicycles. Ho's tho agent for tho .
Bull Run wheel. "
"Smith went into tho manufacturing
business, didn't he?"
"Oh, yes. Ho got interested in a sew- .
ing machine manufactory, nnd a little ',
later they took up bicycles and aro doing
a rushing business. I understand they
hnvo a capacity of over 100 wheels a ;
day."
"And what's Whito doing?"
"Ho's the agent for a famous gnu-
maVcr nnd is doing wc'l. Ho sells all ,
kinds of pins, pistols nnd bicycles."
"And Johnson?" i
"Oh, he's a manufacturing jeweler,
and ho turns out a mighty good whoel
too." !
"Billings, I suppose, is still in tho
furniture business?"
"Yes, but I undcrst-and that ho turns
out a better bicycle than ho dix-s desk
or bureau. "
Tho returned travulrr began to betray
some, surprise.
"Is is Wilson still in the livery bus- j
inosK?" ho asked with somo hesitation. !
"Certainly, but ho devotes most of
his tiiuo to tho littlo bicyclo repair shop
iu the rear of his stable, "
"All, thero goes old Bones, the sex-
ton. Tho old fellow is" !
"Oh, ho's agent for an automatic
pump for inflating tires."
"Is there any ouo who isn't in the bi

traveler sadly.

Sir Walter llnlrlr.h's I'lpe.
Among ifi o many anecdotes ti1d of
Raleigh's practices with his pipe may
be mentioned that of his outwitting ti n
queen in n wager sho laid with tho gal
lant knight respecting tho weight of
tho smoko which exhaled from a pipe
ful of tobacco. "I enn assure your maj
esty," said Raleigh, "that I havo so
well experienced tho nature of it that I
can exactly tell even the weight i f the
tmoko in uny quantity I consume." "I
doubt it much. Sir Walter," replied
Elizabeth, thinking only how impossi
ble it must be to catch tho smoke nnd
put it in a bnlance, "nnd will wager
you 20 angeis that you do not solve my
doubt." Whereupon Raleigh drew
forth n qurss'lty of tho weed, placed it
in finely adjusted scales, nnd, having
nscertaiiud its weight, commenced to
smoko it, carefully preserving tho nshes.
These nt tho finish ho weighed with
great exactness.
Then would it dawn upon her majesty
how tho wager was to end. "Your maj
esty," said Raleigh, "cannot deny
that tho difference hath evaporated in
smoke." "Truly I cannot," was her re
ply. Then, turning to those around her,
who were eying with amusement the
curious play on tho pipe, sho continued,
"Many laborers in tho flro have I heard
of (alluding to alchemists) who turned
their gold into smoke, but Sir Walter
is the first who has turned smoke into
gold. "Gentleman's Magazine.

Ho looked fierce, but said nothing,

ahead with a pleased expression.
"What a pity it is," the young wom

"that sho doesn't know it isn't on

Then it didn't feel right, nnd sho shoved
it away over to tho other side, only to

"Poor thing, sho'll never get it
straight now. "
It was too much. Tho girl in front
reached up with a resolute hand, undid

The Cruel Trnth.
Years ago a member of tho Indiana
legislature, in a brand new suit if
broadcloth and a silk hat, gold headed
cauc nnd wl.ito lawn tie, wandered up
into tho sanctum of Tho Courier-Journal,
stood around in a listless way, look
ed over tho papers, went down stair
and camo biick several times. Ho was
.asked to take a seat, which ho declined
elaborately, and ended by drawing his
'hair in a cnnfidojitial way up to tho
"Roundabout" man's desk.
"Could you, " said he, "put in the,
paper that I mil nt the Cult Houso with
my bride, u"d just fling iu something
about my being a prominent Indianiiui?
I don't euro anything about this sort of
thing myself, but yon know how the
women are. I want 50 copies of the pa

down 1(2.50, grinned, got red iu tho
face, said "Good morning" and van
ished. .
Next morning he read that "Mr.

IN HARD LUCK.
Tw Men Who Were Peculiarly Cheated
Out of "qnare Meal.
"Yes," said tho reformed miner, "I
am back from Cripple Creek, and that
is the best of my luck. I got away.
Here is a sample of tho ill fate I hnd
to contend Willi! I struck tho camp
without a cent, for I hadn't done any
thing hut loso all along the line. I hunt

could do was to get mo a mi ni ticket nt

A similar melodrama, whoso plot
swung and rattled oliont a restaurant
ticket, had its scene in Chicago. It was
before tho days when gold cures offered
temporary relief to those addicted to
tho rosy. One young man, naturally of
a thrifty habit, reached a point in his
life when he learned that if ho beeamo
thirsty ho becamo very much so. In
quelling this thirst ho was apt to squan
der all tho money ho had saved since
the last time. So it came that, being
philosophic, he rose superior to his pro
pensity for thrift and disposed of his
salary ns fast as ho earned it Thereby
ho got duo nnd proper action for his
money, and also appreciably shortened
tho length of his drunks. Having no
reserve fund, ho could not continue his
liquor consuming career for long. Ono
Monday ho detected the stealthy ap
proach of tho thirst. Ho had become so
wise that hocould tell it 1 8 hours away.
It was his salary day, and, knowing
full well his weakness, the first invest
ment he mndo was in a meal ticket.
On tho Thursday following tho next
ho saw the sun. The iutervul wus part
blank and part confusion of red lights,
cabs und schooners. Ho had not it cent
iu his clothes, and was as hungry as a
shipwrecked sailor. He dug up his meal
ticket and went around to Calhoun place

THE GAME BUTCHERS' WORK.
Wanton Slaughter by Ilnntrn In the Jack
son Hole Country.
Tho American Field jumps upon tho
foreigners who coino to tho United
States, seek out thoso localities where
most of tho big game is to be found,
and then lay themselves down to tho
work of slaughtering it with rifles. A
fuvorite resort of these game butchers
is the Teton basin, tero aro found elk,
deer mid untclopo, which lire being kill
cd olT rapidly. Tho Teton basin, Jack
son's Hole, is much lower than the Na
tional Yellowstone park, and lunch of
tho big game migrates south to it, as
warmer climate is to be found iu tlie
valley. It is hero that tho hunters from
abroad congregate, nnd in spite of tho
Wyoming statu laws kill gamo wanton
ly. If these men would kill a oonplo of
heads of each kind, taking care of tho
meat, and following up wounded game,
littlo or no objection would bo made.
These hunters, some of whom nro
Americuns, pass through the National
park on their way liomo with wagon
loads of skins and horns. The law iu
relation to transporting gamo reads
that "possession within tho park of tho
dead bodies or any purt thereof of any
wild bird or animal shall be prima fa
cie evidence that tho person or persons
having the samo are guilty of violating
this net" With this act behind him
the superintendent could squelch the
wholesale slaughterers of gamo iu the
region of the Yellowstone park, accord
ing to The American Field. Captain
Anderson, the superintendent, is urged
to make an effort to enforce tho law.
What would be better yet would be the
annexation of the Jackson's Holo coun
try to tho Yollowstouo park.
