HHBE.S SONG.
How Editor John Cockerill Dashed
it off for Belle Mackenzie.
From the Pbilasieibis Record.

From the PbilaieIhis Record
Most people who have admired the
little song of Hebe in the last act of
'Pinafare" do not know that it is not
a part Of the opera as written by Gil
bert and Sulli,ian. II was composed
and the music arranged for Belle
Mackenzie. by John CockeriIl. the
ST. Louis editor. Belle Mackenzie
made the part of Hebe famous when
she gave the rev song for the first
time at South Broad street theatre.
i'm this city, during the great Pima
fore" craze of 1877. When John T.
Ford was introduced to Miss Mack
enzie, in Baltimore. he was struck
with her face and manners. and
thought she would make bit ON the
stage. so he offered her place in his
company in the Hebe role in "Pina-
fore" The company was then pre-
pairing to come to Philadelphia to
reap a rich harvest which afterwards
put thousands of dollars in the pockets
Of himself and Fred Zimmerman.
The pretty Philadelphia blonde, who
Was about To make her first appear
ance, was not satisfied simply to pose.
but rs the authors Of the opera half
not written a solo for the fair cousin,
there was some difficulty in satisfying
Mics Mackenzie, until The matter was
mentioned to Mr.. Cockerlll, who
was at that time the editor in chief of
the Baltimore Gazette. and who sat
down and dashed of the song which
has since become famous. He is
something of a musician and with the
assistance of the director of Ford's
company the song was set to music
and ut once handed to Miss Mackenzie.
who quickly caught its spirit and
made great hit The music to
witch the song was set is an old Hun
ga'isn air, which Mr.. Cockerill heard
during his tour of Europe for the
Cincinnati Enquirer. and which made
such an impression upon him that he
had not forgotten it.

ROUGH AND TUMBLE.

During the exercise hour for the
prisoners in the Jail. last Saturday
aftern Don in st. Louis, the customary
fight among the pri- oners was INDUCED
in. Generally, the ''scrapp;ng matches
axe place between som of the young
b odlums who are in on trivial charges.
but on Saturday, the row was between
two full fedged murderers, one under
sentence of death and theOther awaiting
rial. The combatants were John Hayes
who murdered Philip A. Mueller. the
saloon keeper opposite the Fair
Grounds in September. 1881, because
the latter refused .ogive him drink,
and Patsy Early. the young hoodlum
who murdered Billy Londerman on
August %, 1881. During the exercise
hour he prisoners are all let out on
the floor of he Jail and may either
exercise or receive, friends or relatives
at the screen in front of the main en-
trance There are always large number
of callers on such days and the screen
is taken up by the prisoners on one
side and their friends on the other
talking with each other. About 4 O'Clock
Early and Hayes met as they were
walking up and down, and when they
came up to each other, without any
preliminary arrangements. they went
at each other in rough-aDd-ready style.
The rules Of the prize-ring governed
in the fight and the only thing which
approached a pugilistic encounter &C.
cording to the Marquis of Queensbury
rules was the attentive and interested
crowd of prisoners who Immediately
surrounded to see fair play. Hayes is
a big. burly fellow, while Early is a
lightly built man, considerably
younger than Hayes. No blood was
spilled, and a few scratches was all
that resulted from the battle. Before
anything worse could be reached,
guard O'Connor separated them and
locked them in their cells. The fight
grew out of jealousy existing between
the two men for some time past.
