How Edwin Forrest First Felt the Emo
tion Of Fear.

"How was no in his relations with
other actors?" "Just rs he was
with everybody he met. TO use a
slang word, he was extremely apt to
bully all the theater, from the man.
ager down. But he once met his
match. It was when he was playing
Mt the old Broadway Theater. near
Pearl street. His pieces were followed
by an exhibition OF lions BY their
tsmer, q certain Herr Driesbach.
Forrest was one day saying that he
had never been afraid in all his life
could not Imagine the emotion. Dries
bach made no remark at the time, but
In the evening. when the curtain had
fallen, Invited Forrest home with him.
Forrest asscnted, and the two, enter
ing house, walked long distance
through many devious paSsages-all
dark-until finally Driesbach, opening
q door, said: This way, Mr.. Forrest
Forrest entered. and Immediately heard
tho door slammed and locked behind
him. He had not time to express any
surprise at this. for at the same mo-
ment he felt something soft rubbing
against his leg, and putting out his
hand, touched what felt like a cats
back. 4 raising growl saluted the
motion, and he saw two fiery. glarins
eyeballs looking up at him. Are
you afraid, Mr.. Forrest?' asked Dries
bach, Invisible In the darkness. Not
. blt.' Drlesbach said something, the
growl:deepened and became hoarser,
the back began to arch and the eyes to
shine more fiercely. Forrest held out
two or three minutes; but the symp-
toms became 80 terrifying that he
owned up In so many words that he
was afraid. Now let me out, you
Internal scoundrel.' he said to the lion
tanner, .and III break every bone In
your body He was impudent there,
for Driesbach kept him. not daring to
move finger, with the lion rubbing
against his leg all the time. until For
rest not only promised immunity but
