A STAGE ROMANCE.

Ho,U a Young Gentleman Entered tho
Dramatic Profession Through the Car
pe,ltcs's Shop.
EARLY in the present dramatic season, says
the Providence (R. ~ Press, while the Gene
We've Ward combination was playing in the
Philadelphia Academy of Music, youth Of ex-
cellent address, fine personal appearance and
apparent education, applied to Messrs. Jarrett
d Palmer for situation in any department.
whereby he might 60 on the then proposed
tour. he said that ha needed salary, was
willing worker, a good mechanic and abund-
hotel bills. His object was to thoroughly learn
the stage business, and to eventually secure
speaking part whereby he might advance in
the profession. His solicitations were 90 per-.
slstent and his manner SO persuasive, that per-
mission was granted him to act "a an assistant
in the carpentering department.. He proved to
be all he had claimed, was steady and useful
and SO skillful that when the master carpenter
was obliged by sickness to retire, the new
conner was promoted to the vacant place. He
was O. universal favorite with the company, at
tarcted the attention of Miss Ward and Mr..
Levlck by valuable suggestions as to stage
effects, and even discussed Shakespeare with
them in & manner which showed his thorough
acquaintance withithe works of the great poet
In st. GATHERINGS, Canada, Mr.. Craig, who
played John Grist in ''Jane Shore y was taken
seriously Ill, and the new conner, who went by
the name of bob" Trimmer volunteered to
appear in the part. No one else was available,
his offer was accepted, and to the astonishment
of all he made an immense hit, was called be
fore the curtain, and the next morning the
press said that ''Mr. Craig" whose name was
retained in the bills, divided the honors with
theHtar." The morrow found him in his prop
er department again, and he made no refer
ences to his wondrous histrionic success. He
adroitly parted all questions as to his home
and family, and he remained Giving mys-
terry" until few days ago, in Hamilton, =
letter was received by MIR. Tooker, the manager
dated at Cambridge. Mass, and signed by the
mysterious young mans father, who, by some
means, had learned his sons whereabouts, and
wrote begging Mr.. Tooker and Miss Ward to use
their influence toward securing Shis return to
his home. The mystery was mystery no long
or, and the young man, yielding to the desire
of his parents, returned to Cambridge, Mass,
where he is known rs Mr.. Lawrence Otis.

Death Of the Great Leod Pencil Han.

New YORK, March 3.-Eberhard Faber,
founder and head of the house of A. w.
Faber, in this country, died at his residence
in New. York, on Sunday, aged 81. He was
The first to establish the lead pencil house of
A. ". Faber here, and from this city he has,
within the last twenty years, spread the
business of the firm all over the
United States. He was born near Nurem-
berg, Bavaria, Dec 6. 1892, the youngest son
of George Leonard Faber, son of A. w.
Faber, and grandson of Casper Faber, who
first began the manufacture of Faber's PEN
ellis in 1861. In 1S49 Mr.. Faber came to
New York and opened branch
house of Il. W. Faber. The
business was at first conducted simply as an
agency to the main house in Germany, the
pencils being imported at great expense
from the parent establishment. Mr.. Faber
conceived the idea of manufacturing his own
goods in this country. In 1861 he built the
first lead-pencil mandatory in America.
nabor-saving machinery was introduced to
reduce the difference between the price of
labor in Europe and America. In this fac
tory were made all grades of pencils upon
which an excessive duty was charged. Mr.
Faber, as years passed, enlarged his plans
and manufactured penholders, rubber goods
and almost everything connected with the
stationery trade. At the time of his death
the entire product of rubber factory in
New Jersey was absorbed by him in the
manufacture of rubber materials.

ABOUT WHEAT.

What Has Become Of the Immense ssu-
plies from tho Crop Of 187S-1O9, 900, 900
Bushels Exported In the Last Eight
Months-The Great Bulk of Witch Has
Gone to France and the Conttnent-We
Can ReGtt to Sec the End Of the Surplus
I from. the Crop of 1878.
To the Editor Of the Chicago Tribune.
The total exports of wheat and wheat
-four from all ports Of the United States in
the year to June 80, 1877, as reported by the
United States bureau of statistics, wore
equal to 57,O43,936 bushels of wheat, and
for the year to June 80, 1873, they are gwen
by the same authority as equal to 81, 1 80, 236
bushels of wheat.
It is we'll known that the stock of wheat
in the United States on July l, 1878, was un-
usually low, and it is therefore fair to pre-
sumo that the export of, say, 100000
bushels up to that time was the utmost we
could spare-above our own requirements
for consumption and seed out Of the crop
of 1877.
fHE SURPLUS FOR 1878-'79.
Now without entering into the discussion
as to what was the total of either of the last
two orops-we may assume that the crop of
1873 was, say, 10000, 900 bushels grester
than that of 1877. But as it is we'll known
that it requires more of the spring wheat of
1873 to make barrel of -four than it did of
the spring wheat of 1877, and as it is also
tolerably certain that our requirements for
consumption and seed will be q little larger
in 1873 - than they were in 1878, the
increase of 10000, 900 bushels in the last
crop will not add more than, say, 81, 00O,OO0
bushels to our surplus available for foreign
export. This increase, added to the 80, OOO,-
600 exported in the previous year, would in
dictate our total surplus available for foreign
export in the year to June 80, 1879, at 147,-
100000 bushels. Let me see how much of
this has already gone.
THE EXPORTS SINCE JULY 1, 1873.
The total exports Of wheat and flour the
latter at FIVE bushels to the barely from all
United States ports from July l, 1873, to
Jan. /, 1879, were just about 93,5OO,0OO
bushels, as follows:

Paclhc ports IL, 606, 1872
New Orleans, say. .................. 2,0OO, 900

From Jan. i to Feb. %, the total exports
from all United States ports aggregated
about 16, OO0, 600 bushels, as follows:

| WASHINGTON, March 1.-The recent sad
fate of Col. ,Wyndham, better known as Sir
Percy Wyndham, recalls an episode in his
strange career that to many perhaps has re-
manned mystery. It will be remembered
that he served for while in the Union army
as colonel of New Jersey cavalry regiment,
and acting brigadier of a cavalry brigade, to
which position he had been advanced for his
consummate knowledge of cavalry man
oeuvres at the earnest solicitation of officers
in high rank. In 1868 Wyndham was
with the army in Virginia, in command of
about $500 men. He was held in high es-
TEEN, both for his bravery and his military
skill; was general favorite with his superb
ors, and expected soon to be advanced to the
rank of brigadier- general. Suddenly, to the
surprise of everybody, he was ordered to
Washington, and there granted an indefinite
leave of absence by Secretary Stanton. No
reasons were given for this. He remained
in Washington for some days, suffering from
the most terrible chagrin, which he endeav-
ored to alleviate by plunging into dissipa-
ton. At last he determined to visit his com
mand, and was received cordially by his
brother officers; but after he had been in
camp two days, an order came from the Sec
rotary of war to the commanding general
that Wyndham should at once leave the
Union lines. If he did not do SO, he was to
be put under close arrest and sent to Wash
ington Immediately. Wyndham resigned on
his return to Washington.
Some time before his death by drowning
on the lakes few years ago, Mr.: Stanton's
private secretary informed an empIoye of
the war department., under promise of SOL
emn secrecy during his life time, of the
cause of Wyndham's removal Mr.. Stanton
had private information, given in such
manner as to insure the concealment of the
names of the informers, that Wyndham had
entered into negotiation with the confed-
crate government to surrender his command
for the sum of 100000. Mr.. Stanton could
not, getting his information as he did, place
Col. Wyndham under arrest, and try him
for this highest crime of which soldier can
be guilty, so the only road open was to re-
move him from command. The private Sec
rotary said he was in doubt as to whether or
not Judge Advocate General Holt was aware
of the matter, but believed MI. Stanton act
ed under his advice. The gentleman to
whom this story was told it in government
employ and in position of high trust.
