A Renaissance of Artemus Ward in
INnd0n.


from inc Cleveland flalndealer.
Mr.. Sothern informs us that he made
the acquaintance of our old friend, Ar
temus Ward, in London, and was very
much struck with his exhuberance of
droll humor. The first time he beheld
Ward on the stage at Egyptian Hall, the
lecturer came and sat down awkwardly
on a chair. The time seemed to hang
heavily on his hands. He glanced up
nervously at the clock, made freque MT
and vigorous applications of his hand
kerchief to his prominent nasal organ,
rose two or three times and walked
oblectlessly about the stage, and returned
to his seat. The hour hand pointed to
eight, and yet no sound issued from the
showman'sn lips; five minutes past
eight, and yet no sign. The audience
began to show signs of impatience.
They did not understand this demon
stration. They had paid their money
for mass of information about Nor
mondon, polygamy and all, and feared
that some sham was in store for them.
Finally the clock indicated ten minutes
past eight, and then the lecturer rose
again, and shutting to the footlights,
with his little whip in hand, said La
dies and gentlemen, q lecture was ad-
Vertised for tonight in this hall i; it was
announced to begin at eight o'clock j;
bat as l can talk only fifty minutes at
a stretch, have used ten minutes see
ing what time it was !" AT first the au-
dience stared at stage and speaker in
blank amazement; but soon the min
gled drollery and impudence of the
joke broke upon them, and the house
exploded in one big OUTLAW. Mr.. Soth-
ern says that the idea of the thing
struck him as so delightfully."- absurd
that he fairly screamed after that every
time Ward opened his mouth.
Another episode of this same enter
tainment is related by the actor. The
panorama had rolled along to the we'll
known moonlight scene. This was a
great point in his exhibitions, as clever
Continuance of machinery enabled a
very pretty effect to be produced of a
moon sailing through the clouds, and
casting its shadow upon the calm waters
of lake. On this occasion. Ward.
with more than his usual elaborateness,
was expatiating upon the beauties OF
the scene. "This moon, ladies and gen.
tlemen,' said he, 9 is our main standby
W please our pdtronS you Will oooeife
the naturalness with which it sails
through the heavens glancing over his
shoulder as he spoke, to find that the
machinery had broken down, and the
moon wouldn't work |; ah, you will have
to excuse me; 1 perceive that my
moonist has gone to tea: he will be
back presentlyw And then on witt
the rest of the show, as though nothin.
had happened.
Mr.. Sothern remarked the affected
unconsciousness of a humorous utter
ance, on the partof Ward, as the mos
telling point IN his comic lectures,

Sculptors and Sculpture.

A correspondent in Italy gives the
following facts about sculpture:
" How many there are who still think
that the statue which they see and ad-
mire in its harmonious perfection is the
product of the artists chisel AS the
phrase is-whose name the statue bears
We hear constantly that such sculptor

had nothing to do with the work after
the clay model was finished. Only his

him the labor of week or ten days

ses, at As and so Wabash avenue-in the

They are one of the few houses in Chicago

reputation for enterprise, integrity and fair
dealing second TO no house in the city, and
fully represent the energy, tireless activity
and thrift of the new Chicago.
They manufacture largely the highest
grade of custom boots, with the best and

II. Sutlif, a San Francisco tobacconist,
advertises as follows: "Fully realizing

ened press bestows upon the masses,
and having always regarded the news

way subserve the interest of my fellow

Sunken Treasure.

Off the coast of Ecuador, near Point
SAINT Elena, lie the remains of once
magnificent Spanish frigate, sent out by
the Government of Spain in 1902, to
collect tribute money. After collecting
about S5,000,000 she was wrecked on
her way to Panama, end now lies where
she has lain for seventy years. in the
direct track of navigation, and only 600
feet from the shore. The Spanish Gov
eminent recovered from the wreck about
100000 in the early part of the cen
tury, and in later years about 100000
was got up by an enterprising individual.
1t is now proposed to make decisive
effort to recover the rest of the immense
treasure sunk in the sea, and an expe-
dition has left the California coast with
that object. Hydraulic machinery of
great caJibre, and the wonderful engines
Of the Pacific Coast Wrecking Company
are to be employed.

How Fishing Rods are Made.

The Bangor Commercial thus describes
the process of manufacturing fishing
rods: The bamboo is sawed into three
or four pieces, according to the length
of the rod desired, OF about uniform
length. These pieces are then sawed
lengthwise into small strips, consisting
of four or six, as ordered. These strips
are then firmly glued together, restor-
ing the rod to its original proportions
and leaving no seam or trace of the
saw. This adds strength to the rod
This accomplished, the ferules are made
and adjusted by an ingenious method,
the ferules being either of plated silver
or German silver. Then comes the pro-
cess of winding the stick. At the larger
ED the, material used for the purpose
is Iatan, beautifully and artistically lad
on. From there to the tip it is wound
with strong silk in spaces varying from
two inches to half an inch. The rings
and the reel complete the equipment.
Buy the Halford Table Sauce.-It is
by far the best. Let no grocer who has an
ove-stock of poor imported Sauce, sell you
something which has no other merit than
that it was put up in England.-[Com.
