FROM Good Words.
Ward started in California with an announce
ment that he would lecture On ''The Babes in the
Wood" He said he preferred this title to that
of "My Seven Grandmothers" Why, nobody
knows, for there was, Of course. to be Us little
in the lecture about babes, in or out of the
wood. as about seven Or any other number OF
grandmothers. ''The Babes i'm the Wood" was
never written down; few sentences only have
survived OF a performance which was destined
to rev0iutionize the comic featuring Of the age
The babes" seem only to have been alluded to
twice-frst at the beginning. when the ecturer
gravely announced 1.-THE Babes as his subject.
and then, after a rambling string Of irrelevant
whtcisms, which lasted from an hour to an
hour and half. he concluded with, "a now
come to my subject-'The Babes in the Wood -"
Thcn taking cut his watch. his cOuntenance
would suddenly change--surprise, followed by
great perpiexty! At last recovering his for
mer conpOsure. and facing the difficulty az best
he c0u!d. he continues .'But find have ey-
ceeded my time. and viii therefore merely re-
mark that, SO far as ! know, they were very
good babes; they were rs good as ordinary
babes" Then. almost breaking down. and much
more nervonsly, Il really have not time to GO
into their history; you will find 1t all in the
story books" Then, getting quite dreamy.

With some suppressed emotion. ut was a sad
fate for them, and pity them; so / hope do
you Goodnight" The success of this lecture
throughout California was instantaneous and
decisive. The reporters complained that they
could not write for laughing and split their
pencils desperately in attempts to take down
the jokes. Every hall and theater was crowded
to hear about the Babes and the 'Iyceum"
lecturer Of the period. ''wlat crainmed hisself
full OF hish-soundin' phrases. and got trusted
