In a performance of “The Lady of the Lake” the actor who took the part of Roderick Dhu was known to be in pecuniary difficulties. When Roderick gave the line, “I am Roderick Dhu,” Fitzjames responded, “Yes, and your rent’s due too.” On the production of a piece called “The Spy” the early acts showed that it was going to prove a failure. So when at a certain point a character had to rush on and shout, “Five hundred pounds for the spy!” the author-actor, who was concealed behind a rock, arose and crled, “It’s yours — copyright, manusecript and parts!” That was the end of the per- formance. ‘When eating takes place on the stage, the temptations to play tricks with the food are naturally great. In “Henry V.” the leek which that inimi- table braggart Pistol- has to eat is usually made from an apple. But on one occasion at Sadler’'s Wells the Fluellen of the evening gave him a real onion, and he had no choice but to struggle- through it, though the tears coursed down his fat cheeks.— Cornhill Magazine. Man and a Carpet. Clara—I'll give you a conundrum. Why is a man like a carpet? Tom—I glve it up. Clara—Well, he’s no sooner down than people walk all over him. Tom—Oh, pshaw! Man is totally un- like a carpet, for the more dust he has the less likely he is to get the shake.— Tlustrated Bits. A Very Mad Dog. A little girl came running to tell about a mad dog she had seen. “We saw a mad dog!” she gasped, but the ‘words seemed too tame to do justice to the situation. “Oh, he was mad, mad!” . she added, frowning and pumping her fists. “He was Weekly. furious!”—Harper’s 3 Paid For the Supplies. * A story said to be characteristic 1s told of a certain judge. It seems that when he convened court at-one of the towns on his c¢ircuit it was found that no pens, ink or paper had been pro- vided, and upon inquiry it developed that no county funds were avaflable for this purpose. The judge expressed himself somewhat forcefully, then drew some money from his own pocket. He was about to hand this to the clerk when a visiting lawyer, a high priced imported article, brought on to defend a case of some importance, spoke up In an aside plainly audible over the room. “Well,” he rewarked, with infinite |§ eontempt, “I've seen some pretty bad courts, but this—well, this Is the limit!” The old judge flushed darkly. “You are fined $25 for contempt, sir! Hand the money to the clerk!” he said, and when the pompous visitor had humbly complied he continued, “Now, Mr. Clerk, go out and get what pens, ink and paper the court may require, and if there is anything left over you can give the gentleman his change.”—Harper’s Weekly. A Genius at Excuses. “While I was stage managing a plece some time ago,” said a theatrical mag- nate, “one of my show girls showed an independence of spirit which was superb. She was always late for re- hearsal. Her excuses were great. All her friends and relations had a series of maladies which were remarkable in their number and diversity. She nurs- ed them all until they naturally gave up the ghost. About an hour was enough to bury most of them. Then she caught on to mechanical devices. Street cars were invariably late—just as late as she was, in fact. Then in turn came certain inconveniences in hotels. The elevator was continually sticking until finally came the denoue- ment. It was in Philadelphia, The siren did not appear until nearly two hours after the proper time. I looked at her and waited. The excuse came glibly. “‘Oh,’ she panted, ‘I'm so sorry, but they are repairing the stairs at the hotel, and I could not get down until they brought a ladder? “I recognized genius in that girl”— Chicago Record-Herald. How the Cook Did It. He had a number of guests to din- ner, and he was doing the carving. He had deftly taken two slices off the joint, and he was turning off a third when the blade struck a skewer, made a sliding motion and came out at the top, with the result that the proposed slice looked like a dead leaf curled up by the sun’s rays. He could not say intense things in the presence of his guests, so he froze his wife with a glance, dug the skewer out viciously, made a grim joke con- cerning the indigestibility of roasted wood and ordered little Willie, who had made several attempts to speak, to keep silent or leave the table. His evident temper led to an embar- rassing silence, and Willle saw an opening that he could not resist. “Cook burned her nose orful!” he announced. “Too bad,” sald the mother, glad of any excuse for conversation. “How did she do it?’ “Why,” answered Willle very apro- pos, “trying to pull them skewers out with her teeth!”—London Secraps, An Indignant Artist. The sensational offers sald to have been made by theatrical managers to the principal actor in a recent murder trial must have made professional stars feel very much as did the painter Haydon In 1846 when two of his finest pictures were .being shown at the Egyptian hall, and the public thronged into another room where General Tom Thumb was on view. “They rush by thousands to see Tom Thumb,” wrote the disappolnted painter in his diary. “Their eyes are open, but thelr sense is shut. It is an insanity, a rabies, a madness, a furor, a dream!” Another entry later on runs: “Tom Thumb had 12,000 people last week, R. R. Haydon 133% (the half a little girl). Exquisite taste of the English people!” We do not seem to have progressed much since then.—London Chronicle. - ) Diameter of a Fine Wire. Should you ever find it necessary to obtain the diameter of a fine wire, it may be done in this manner: Wind it carefully around a piece of pencil in one layer for an inch or so, that each turn is touching the previous one. Then measure exactly an inch along the wire and count the number of turns in the inch. You then have the information. Thus, if there are eighteen turns the wire is one-eighteenth of an inch in di- ameter. _ A Good Man. “Your dead husband wor a good mon,” declared the sympathetic Mrs. Casey to the bereaved widow. “He wor!” exclaimed Mrs. Murphy, dashing the tears from her eyes. “No two polacemin cud handle him!’,— Judge, Details Desired. “Miss Vanessa, if a young man should ask you to marry him what would your answer be?” “I can't say. tion should go more fully into details.” —Washington Herald. Wonderful Printing. Bacon—They say Dauber does some wonderful work. Egbert—Yes. 1 un- derstand he painted some bananas green, and in a month they all turned yellow! 4 In the Klondike region in midwinter the sun rises from 9:30 to 10 a. m. and 8ets from 2 to 8 p. m.
