An Aetor Who Alwars Whisprs-- Character Which is in Every Cast And Yet is Not Permitted to Strut Ris Bricf Hour Upon the Stage, Chicaco Herald. “What do 1 have to do?" said an old | stago prompter, who is now enjoying his vacation, to a reporter who inquired of him something about the duties of that | theatrical personage. *‘Well, 1 com- mence with the rehearsal of the piece by | distributing the parts to the various peo | ple. Whilo the stage manager is_direct [ing at rehearsals the prompter is kept | busy writing out the part for the changes | of scene to guide the stage carpenters, a list of properties required for the pi cies they are easy let him try once, and he will soon bo convinced to the contrary. in the wings with a play-book in your | hands, and follow what is being said, than it ia to do it from the from the fron* of tho house. Tho prompter must fol low tho piece line for line. If an actor | falters in his speech for a moment the prompter must throw him the word ho is groping for. 1f an actress looks appeal- ingly at an andience the prompter knows that she is stuck and immediately gives her the needed cue. Some players boast that they never stick. No imatter if they had totally forgotten their lines they sny somothing, and I have never seen the difforence noticed by the audi- ence yot." ‘Do you remember any instances of that kind?" “‘Once; when I was making the rounds of the Pacifle_slope T went to seo a per- formanco of “Macheth” by the company of afriend of mine in San Francisco. Tho players were a band of regulation old-time ranters, and the fellow who played the part of the wicked Macboth ‘gagged’ the part more than once in the first scenc. In the middle of the second scens ho was entirely lost for his lines, but he hesitated only for a moment, when he threw his arms around Lady Macheth's waist, and drawing her ap to him cooly said: ‘Let us retire, dearest chack, und con this matter over in & most scquestered spot, far from the busy haunts of men. Here the walls and doors are spies, and our every word is echoed far and near. Come, then,let’s away! Falso heart must hide, you know, what the heart dare not show.’ They made their exit amidst a roar of applause, and I thought that man_had no use for a prompter sure enough.” “With whom do you experience the most difficulty?” ‘‘Amateurs or raw actors are my hor- ror. The debutante is another. She will forget her lines the moment she goes on, and become so mnervous that she can soarcely repeat those the prom ter reads to her.” “‘Do you remember any partioular in stancos of that kind?”" “‘Yes; I remember one young lady who set herself up for a Juliet. She appear- ed supported by a lot of country players, and loat every {ine, a8 usual, r{ succeed- ed in putting her through the first scene, but when the famous balcony scene was on her mothor, an old lady, stood on the Iadder behind her reading the spoechess word for word which she re- peated after her. But mamma was aweight and the ladder, a weak inenvtion gave way in the middlo of the farewell. The old lady tumbled forward against the reckety staging of the balcony and 1t foll against the set-picce that screened it from tho audience, Juliet, mether, balcc- ny and all camo topling down on the gushing Romee, who by tho time he was extricated from the wreck, was as mourn- ful & lover as the play ropresents him to be. T presume you aro subjected to some annoyance in spito of the rules of thethe- ater.” “Oh, yes. There in a rigid ruleagamst any one lounging in the prompter's cor ner, but the ladies of a company have a charming fashion of vielating it. They are continually slipping into the forbid- den spaco to get u glimpso of their lines in the prompt book. Thiy have their parts to look over, but therc is a faseina tion about a prompter'’s volume that | seems irresistible. As its owner, how- ever, is on good terms with tho ldies, he | don't object, unless putting his arms about tho waist of one or, chucking an- other under the chin can be construed inte an objection. There is an occasion upon which the prompter is an object of almost as much intercst as when he has his book in hand and the people on the stago are listening for ||im. That is when ho posts & cortain notice on the call board.” ““‘Where is the call board?" “‘It is & bulletin board, which is hung in the green-room whero the actors ns- somble, and upon which netices are posted for rehearsals, the cast of pieces to be rehearsed, and weekly notices that salaries will be paid on such and such a day. Then ho is surrounded by the me nbers of the company and plied with all sorts of questions, 1t is then he feels his importance, and maintains it, in spite of all liquid bribes. In fact, I never met a rmllpur who did not consider himself & far more important member of the pany than the leading man, The leading man may loom up big among the ladies, but where would he be but for the prompter! I tell you the prompter's life It is a great deal more difficult to stand | which 1 always k.-{w a supply on a table " | were wold in fifth, at 81 each, to Messrs, a confirmed bashish eater, had often de- scribed the wonderful power of the drug, and had repeatedly endeavored to over cone my prejudice and persuade me to make » trial of ita virtwes.

However, iy native friend was with me, and I resolved to make no fuss about the matter and take the chance of any specially i1l effects. YTt was after 10 at night when I took talking with #0 that it was | probably 1 o'clock when I returned to my quarters and fell asleep almost as | soon ns 1 blew out the candle.

I was in an agony of terror, but it seemed as if weights were dragging me back ward, and hours_moro passed before my slow dragging limbs had carrried me to the mantelpiece. With trembling fingers I struck a match. Slowly it flamed up and I litone of the candles which stood on the end of the mantelpieco. The moment the light filled the room my panic van- ished with the shadows, and looking to- ward the table T found the object of my terrors was simply the long curled stem of my hookah, when darkness and my overwrought nerves had transformed into somo deadly reptile, ““The sensation of numbness and ting- ling still ocontinued, T looked at my watch and thought it had stopped, but on closer inspection T could see the lag- ging movements of the second-hand with a distinet and prolonged pause between each movement. This sense of time, or rather loss of the perception of time, was perhaps the most marked effect of my ex- periment with the drug. I took up the wator jug and long before I had quench- ed my thirst I lniffitdnwn in dismay, for it seemed to my disordered senses ns if gallons of water had poured down my throat, when in reality I had only drank a few ounces. So lony as 1 kept my eyes sufforing -except - the loss of all sonse of time. I looked repeatedly at my watch and could only convince myself by closely watching the socend-hand it had not stopped, for the few minutes since I had lighted the candle seemed like hours, days, weeks. Suddenly I was oporessed with a feeling of loneliness, an intense desire for companionship, which became 80 ntrong that I resolved to seek m friend, whose house was within a stone’s throw of my hotel. In dressing I de- sisted many times, convinced that I must be under some spell or in a dream, and only by repeatedly consulting my watch, could T assure myself that the endless task of dressing was in reality only a matter of & few moments. ““ When at last I was prepared to seek my friend, I left my room and started on what proved a long and eventful journey. Probably the change into the night air rendered the effects of the drug more powerful, but at all events I lost con- sciousacss of time, plase, even personal identity,and in the few steps to Jle house of the man 1 was scoking I lived a lifetime, journeyed in other lands, played prominent parts in scenes which passed through my brain with the speed of lighting only to give place to others in an endless and bewildering panorama, When 1 reached my destination the most vivid effects had passed away, and by the time my knock was answered and I was adwittéd, an intense feeling of drowsi- | ness and an_increased feeling of numb- ness and tingling had succeeded the bricf period of intense excitement, My friend soon reassured me when he had looked it | iy eyes and counted my pulse, and i few moments 1 sank mto a deep sleop, | waking late in the day with a confused tho uncertain memories of a dream, and a firm resolve to make no future trial of the power of Indian hemp.” The Event Will Ocour October Oth, There wa excitement through th land aver the 14th August (the 159th Mouthly) Drawi of The Louisiann_State Lottery, - Geu'ls T, Beauregard of La., aud Jubl A, Farly of Vi, both of thowm used to hot water, found it warm, A the Wheel of Fortune revo ved, it ovolved this result: Ticket No. 94,177 drew the firt prize of 875,000, and placed with otlier among tho lappy pirelsors of ity at 81 each wera, Rov, Mouon.
