Charles B. and Harry Clay Blaney announce that it ts their intention to put high class dramatic stock or- ganizations in New York, Brooklyn, Piiiadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Troy and other places. The new rall- ‘road rates, they think, will cut down the number of travelling companies, which fact will make stock profitable. They will produce new plays as well as old. BY WAY OF DIVERSION. Said Silas McGugsin, in Satrorees store: “Here's somethin’ bet you ain't thought of before. It's why them there U boats, when divin’ around, don't butt into whales an’ their men ‘all git drowned. I've figgered it out an’ I'll tell you just why. ‘Them whales is so timid—they’re turrible shy—an’ when Mister U boat in on their play they all etve snort an’ they beat it away.” “That may ‘be the truth,” answerod Grandpa M a *an’ yet I'll be danged if tt sounds Tight to me. One thing you hain't told us—it's where yer talk fails— an’ that's how we know they butt them there whales” Old Silas frowned deeply and answered: “Mc- Gee, yer just an old fool with the brain of a flea. Such ions 8s yours is the kind that I spurn.” And then he went out vowing ne'er to return.
