O," said the actor, as he put his feet on the opposite seat, threw-his ulster over the head of the harmless old gen tleman in front of us, nnd proceeded to light his corncob pipe, "life with a cross-roads aggre gation ain't no snap. You travel lead hard lives, but as a matter of fact you don't know what trouble is. Why, I've worked for five companies since the first of Octo ber, and played ever 3* part you can think of except a bronze statue, and where am I now?

"Comedian? Not on your birthday; I'm a tragedian by instinct and educa tion; but it so happened that I always have to play the comedy role wherever I go—fate, I suppose, or what those thcosophist Indiainaniacscall Karma. I never remember playing a part to my liking but once, and that was under adverse circumstances. I did the ghost in 'Hamlet,' and it was this way: I'd joined a party of barnstormers who were playing week stands through the mining towns in Pennsylvania. We sported a brass band at one time, but they had skipped out and left us with nothing but a bass drum, that was of little use as an attraction; still we lugg#d it around with us. Well, one week we were at a coal town way up on the hills above the Two Lick, where the natives were as green as grass. The first night's performance was a great success, but at its close a com mittee of miners waited on us with a request that we play 'Hamlet 1 the next night. Our manager replied that 'Hamlet' was not a part of our reper tory, but that we'd give 'em a much better show. The miners were evi dently disappointed, and the lender said: " 'See here, boss, we've got to have this Hamlet show or the folks'll git mad. None of us ever seen it, but there was a digger here last year as could talk of nothin' else but Hamlet, as was the greatest show ever played an' had a ghost to it. Now, you say as you're actors, but can't play Hamlet; we've "YOU SHALL HAVE THE GHOST." talked with the boys, an' that's the piny they nil want. \ T ou give us that an' we'll pack the house for you.' "The manager looked puzzled and undecided, and another miner noticed it and exclaimed: " 'See here, cap'n, if you can't givo us Hamlet why leave that out, but give us the ghost anyway.' "The manager put on his sweetest smile. "'My friends,' he said, 'you shall have the ghost, and Hamlet, too.' '"To-morrow night?' " 'To-morrow night.' "The delegates thanked us earnestly and withdrew, while the members of the company turned upon their be trayer in anger and amazement. " 'Who knows anything about Ham let?' I asked. "'Who's got a copy of the play?' in quired the heavy man. " '\Yhere's the costumes coining from?' screamed the leading lady. "Hut the manager silenced us all. "Look here,' he said; 'if they are bound to have Hamlet they shall hare him. It'll iill the hous2. I never' t-aw Hamlet myself, but I know a few quotations from it, an I the most they want is the ghost. anyhow. We'll go Dn and do anything we like—fake the thing- through—and when it gets dull we'll ring- in the ghost for excitement.* "That settled it, but I own I had mis givings when I looked at t!>e stage. We were playing in a schoolhouse.and, as there was no stage, we had been been obliged to build one, from some lumber a miner had bought to add a wing to his house. He wouldn't let us cut the boards or nail them, so we laid them across some trusses, meeting the ends in the middle, and during the performance we had to exercise great care where we stepped or the end of a plank would fly up aud give us an exit not down in the play. "When the evening came there was a very nervous lot of actors behind the improvised curtain, and even the mana ger lost a part of his assurance and would have backed out had he dared. But the miners were packed in the house like sordines in a box, and there wasn't standing room for a fly, so we knew it would not be safe to change the bill on them. "That performance of 'Hamlet' was the rankest parody on a play ever pre sented to a suite ring public. The miners looked 011 critically and tried to make out what it was all about. The manager, who was chief actor as well, stayed on the stage most of tne time himself, getting off time-honored gags and trying to put a little go into his embarrassed and indignant company. I was to play the ghost, b .it not having seen 'Hamlet' at that time and having no idea how to dress the part I had covered myself with a she?t and swung the bass drum in front of me. As I'm rather short, my eyes just ranged across the top of the instrument. My cue was to be 'Who art thou?' but I was busily engaged in watching the antics of the company. "They had been a little reckless in their movements and some of the boards near the center of the stage had slipped back, leaving a hole about two feet across. Owing to the drum I never saw this hole. I stood waiting for my cue in the wings, but 1 was thinking intently of something else when 1 be came conscious that the manager was "I AM THY KATHHH'R GHOST!" itanding at the other side of the stage glaring angrily nt me and shouting: 'Who art thou?' nt the top of his voice. "Instantly 1 stepped out, gave the drum a solemn beat at each stride and exclaimed: 'I am thy father's ghost!' At the same time I unconsciously walked into the gaping hole in the stage and disappeared like a shot; but the drum remained on top while I was struggling in the darkness to gain a footing and the crowd was shouting in intense delight at this magnificent de nouement. The manager rang down the curtain and act first was concluded. They drew me out. all covered with bumps and bruises, and, while the company roared with laughter and the manager thanked me with tears in his eyes for saving the piece, I tried to col lect my wits and discover what had happened. "Hut this wasn't the worst of it. Those cussed miners thought the acci dent was part of the piece, and during the next act shouted so energetically for the ghost that I was forced to go on and repent the whole business. The third act was the same way, and when it was over my legs and arms were skinned, one eye was swelled shut, two of my front teeth were missing and every inch of my anatomy was sore. The crowd waited outside to escort mo to the boarding house, where they gave me three rousing cheers, 'Tell you what,' said one of them to me the next day, as 1 sat propped up in bod, 'that air Hninlet is a great show. We sorter wondered why you didn't want to play it for us, but we understand now, and are grateful to you for givin' in. If ever your troupe comes here again, an' you give us Hamlet an' the #host, you can have every dollar the town holds!' "And that," concluded the actor, with a sigh, as he picked his grip out of the rack and put on his ulster, "is the only time I remember playing a tragic part, and yet my soul yearns for tragedy. Good-by, old man, I get out here. To-night, if you'll stop off, you'll see me once more in the grasp of re lentless fate, and playing the fascinat ing part of Marks, the lawyer—for which sin may Heaven forgive me!"— Chicago Times-llerald.

THE EE RATIO BICYCLE. BY LUKE SHARP. #IIAVE, at various periods of my life, endeavored to teach a two-wheeled ma chine to carry a man 1 with something like dignity and stabili ty; to act, in fact, as if it did not wish to whole earth in the space of ten seconds. My lirst efforts were made more years ago than I care to estimate, 011 the ordinary bone shaker of conpneree, a two-wheeled vehicle with hickory spokes in the wheels. If I remember rightly, I broke up the machine, and abandoned the attempt. Never shall I forget my amazement when I saw a human being for the first time 011 one of those wheels which wo now call the ordinary bicycle. It seemed to me then anything but ordi nary. In due time I tackled one of these machines at a riding school, and the result of this wonderful conflict I wrote up years and years ago. The result was that in a certain number of rounds the machine floored me every time, drawing first, second and third blood. As I had some work to do in this world I again abandoned the at tempt, not wishing to break myself into little pieces. On various occasions since then I have endeavored to train up a bicycle in the way it should go, but always without success. It is an amazing thing, then, tlfat a sedate, middle-aged man should try to do what lie had invariably failed to accomplish in his youth. In looking back to sec who is really responsible for this amazing outbreak 011 my part, I think the man most to blame is that celebrated dramatic author, Mr. Bron son Howard. Yet Mr. Howard has always been exceedingly kind and gen tle with me, us, indeed, he is with everyone, and I have often wondered why lie endeavored to lure me on to the top of a bicycle. Perhaps it is that Providence does not intend any man to be entirely good, and as anyone who is acquainted with Mr. Howard has never any fault to find with him, it may be that his goading :>f a man toward feats of bicycular eccentricity takes the place in Mr. Howard's nature that re venge, envy and all uncharitableness occupy in the souls of the rest of us. Mr. Howard at first practiced on a tricycle, and used to cover amazing dis tances on that remarkably sane ma chine. Once when in Honolulu, with nothing to occupy his mind or his muscles hut a bicycle that happened to I*s unemployed at that particular time, Mr. Howard tumbled about the land of the Sandwich islands, and nearly got himself flung into the Pacific on twoor three occasions, but he persevered and conquered the two-wlieeler. Since then he has been bragging about it and inviting ine to take trips with him to various interesting portions of the earth. So I said to myself that if a mere dra matic author had brains enough to ride a bicycle, surely a talented news paper man could do the same. A friend of mine in England said that the real way to acquire the bi cycle habit was to get a machine of my own. "As long," said he, "as 3*oll simply depend on hired machines you won't lan, because you have nothing at stake, but once 3*oll spend your money for a first-class bicycle 3'ou are then "l PUT MY FOOT ON TIIK BTKP." compel led to learn, or else there is so much cash thrown away." This seemed very reasonable, so I pondered upon it and then bought the biggest booh on cycling that is pub lished, a very expensive book, one of the volumes of the Badmington Libra ry, edited by a real lord, and illustrated by a prince—a prince of the brush— named Joseph lVnnell, who is a cycler himself, and he draws very alluring pictures of the machine. I studied up this volume and was amazed to see how easy it was to ride a bicycle. 1 then took the advice of the book as to which particular machine to buy. It gives several pages in a description of a particular safety, and I learned that that machine hail none of the vices which were so prominent in those bi cycles with which I had heretofore been brought into contact. On this one it was impossible to take a header. The machine also would not slip side ways in the mud. It has numerous other advantages, for a list of which I refer all inquirers to the cycling vol ume of the Badmington library. So I had a wheel made to measure— for they measure vou for a bicycle in England jest as if vou were getting a pair of trousers made—and the other day the machine was delivered in goixl shape wrapped up in brown paper. At the back part of my house there is a somewhat large lawn that costs me ever so much a year for having a lazy man with a lawn mower go o*'er it two or three times a month. I thought I would make things interest ing for this man the next time he cumc with his lawn mower by practic ing over the grass with my new bi sycle. The machine was a beautiful one, nickel-plated everywhere that niektl would, stick on it. and so light that i*ou could easily pick it up in one hand, grasping it by the backbone. It seemed almost too pretty for a rough and tumble tight, even on the velvety lawn, a.td I had some thought of put ting it buck in its brown paper ay ..in and hiring a second-hand machim. to learn on, but as it was guaranteed to hang together u ndcr almost any cir cumstances I concluded to go ahead with it. 1 put my left foot on the step that extends out from the hub of the hind wheel, and hopping with my right foot pushed it ahead of me. The ma chine behaved beautifully, but perhaps that was because I hopped the whole lertgth of the lawn and had not tlio courage to jump up into the saddle. On the next round my natural bravery returned to me, nml I raised myself above the machine and sat down some what emphatically and not too com fortably. The wheel seemed to be amazed at this, for with a large space of lawn to wander over, it promptly -.lashed over the border to the left, then, with a wild swoop to the right, fell and landed me in a rose bush. Nothing seemed to be broken except the bush, so 1 tackled it ugaiu and again and again. The result of the llrst morning's work was that I could place myself in the saddle and trundle along the lawn hanging on like grim dentil to the handle bar, but without daring to put my feet on the pedals. I discovered more different muscles in my own body than Uiad any idea 1 possessed. Every bone and sinew ached, not with the falls, for 1 had been singularly lucky in that respect, hut with the exertion.of hopping along "Tills LAWS WAS GETTING TOO SMALL FOB ML" after the machine, and springing into the saddle and straining every nerve to keep the combination from going over. Not to make too long a story of it, I i may say that for three days the ma chine and I discussed this matter, and every morning when I led it out on to tile lawn I seemed at first to know less about balancing myself than 1 had done when I quitted the business the j day before. Perhaps during the night the machine had thought up some new { tricks. j At last I rose up very early one morning, long before the season-ticket man began to pass my house to go to the railway station, for his London train. I felt that the lawn was getting too small for me. I could now work the pedals reasonably well, and stagger about the place from one end to the ; other of the grass plot, but I could not ! turn around, for when I attempted to do so the machine would swoop like a hawk into one of the flower beds or into a convenient piece of shrubbery. Our neighborhood is n quiet one, and the street, at most times, is not so busy as the Strand. I expected to have it all to myrelf in the early morning out, but in this I reckoned without the milkman. I had no idea before that i tlie multitudinal milkman was such a j fiend in human shape, lie drives a ve -1 liiclo modeled after the old Hoinan I chariots, and he drives at a rate of speed that is something appalling. The j moment I got on my bicycle in the road Rome accursed milkman would come tearing up, and taking it for granted that I knew all about bicycle steering he never paid the slightest at tention to me. Consequently I came within an ace of being smashed up into pieces on several occasions, and after steering my machine up on the sidewalk and into the fence to get out of liis way 1 used language that 1 knew must have turned most of the milk in that neighborhood sour. One morning, thoroughly discour aged with the business, I got out on the street a little later than usual, so as to be rid of the milkman. One pe culiarity cf the bicycle seems to be that although you are reasonably suc cessful on your last interview with it, tlie next you seem to have to begin all over again. This particular morning I was more than usually discouraged and bad practically made up my mind to sell tlie machine. All at onco I found myself in tlie sad lie and rea lized that I had ran along several rods without any serious wobbling. On and on we went with a beautiful sense of smoothness, ease and exhilaration. I turned in to the main coaching road with my heart in my mouth but my feet still on tlie pedals, and I executed a turn without disaster. There was now a straight stretch ahead of me for miles on a smooth and excellent road. "Surely,' said I to myself, "tlie time is eoine when my heck is to lie broken. I This docility on tlie part of the wheel | can lead to nothing but disaster." | Nevertheless on and on we went, and after traveling for about a mile and coming to a wide part in tlie thorough fare, I took a sweep around with amazing success and traveled back j again. It seemed to be an unbeliev- ' übic tiling, but actually I had succeed ed in teaching that bicycle bow to carry a man as a man should be ear- j ried. —There is no beautifler of complex ion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us. —Anon.

GASEO bay, in Maine, has its name from an Indian word meaning "crane." These birds were formerly plentiful on its shores. LEECH lake, in Minnesota, takes its name from a translation of the Indian Gahsuhgusgwah Chemakang, "the place of leeches." KENNEBEC was the nearest approach the whites could make to the pronunci ation of Quinninnippiohke, "the place of long water." THE Conemaugh was named from an Indian word meaning "otter creek," from the former abundance of these animals in its waters. THE Appalachicola, in Florida, took its name from that of an Indian town on its banks, Apalachicoli, meaning "an old town or fort." THE Flint, in Michigan, was called by the Indians Perwonigo, "the river of the flint," from the abundance of this stone on its bunks. HOUSEHOLD BREVITIES.
