Some Men Whom the World Never
Hear of.
A List Of the Gentlemen who are Matrimo-
nialIy Related to the
Profession.

The New York World, in reviewing
the husbands of prominent actresses,
says: Take, for example, the husband
of Miss Mitchell, one of the ladies who
have illuminated the stage with pure
womanliness and an honest domesticlty.
The husband of Miss Mitchell is a Mr..
Henry Il. Paddock, a bright, genial,
kindly and enterprising gentleman who
has merged himself so thoroughly in
the personality of his wife that nobody
outside of her profession knows him.
Mr.. Paddock is a handsome man and
quick witted one. When he married
his wife, thirteen or fourteen years ago,
he controlled an excellent business as
halter in Cleveland. Better educated
than most commercial men, with an
unusual good humOr, ready wit, and a
comedy face and figure, he might and
no doubt would have achieved fame
and fortune on his own account. He
married Miss Mitchell-and, by the
way, there is not happier or kindlier
couple in the wOrld-and his entity
completely disappeared in that of the
| charming and clever little actress. His
children-a pretty girl and unusually
| bright bOy-perforce regard him as their
mothers husband. The tendency of
| his intimates is to do homage to his
wife a. the bread winner, forgetting his
| own arduOus responsibilities and the
zeal and intelligence with which he
promotes her personal and professional
duties.
Rose EytIng.
Rose Eyting is married to an actor, q
tall, clever, shoulder-hitting English
man, named Cyril Searle. His and
her children by former marriages are at
school together in England, and Mr..
Searle is as fond of one as he is of the
other. A more devoted and enthusiastic
husband il would be hard to find. He
has, in fact, given up paying engage
ments in London to be with his wife
| and attend to her professional specula-
| tiOns in America.
Miss Annie Pixly, a very brilliant
| and rising actress, Is also happy wife
| and mother, Her husband is Robert
! FulfOrG, an extremely good looking,
| dark and vivaciOuS EngliSh-Canadian
| Mr.. FulfOrd used to be an actor. He
! has also been q journalist of no mean
| renown in California. But when he
| took to managing his wifes business
his individuality disappeared "a COM
pletely rs If he changed his name and
residence.
The husband of Nine. Janauschek
| nobody ever heard of-Outside her pro-
fession. Yet she is married TO Mr..
Pilot, who occupies to his wife the I'M
seen yet useful relation which keel
does to a ship.
Minnie Palmer has not confessed her
marriage yet, but it is generally under
stood among actors that she is the wife
of her manager, q vivaciOuS, blonde
bearded little gentleman named Rogers.
so far Mr. Rogers has enjoyed a dis
tinct individuality, thanks to the belief
that he Is a bachelor. The moment,
however, that he shall be labeled Min
ME Palmers husband" he will disap-
pear as thoroughly as if he had been
carried of by tornado.
Catherine Lewis.
Catherine Lewis la early life married
a tall Swede named Oscar ArfwedSOhn.
He has been in his day very rich man.
Dark and melancholy nowadays he
lives apart from his wife, by whom he
has had one child. 1t Is said that this
husband of q prima donna is so re-
duced in circumstances that he Is tend
ing bar in a saloon on Eighth avenue
Miss Jeffrey Lewis, her sister, Is 9
Mrs. Maitland. Mr.. Maitland, who Is 8
San Francisco stock operator, turned
out so badly that his wife had to leave
him and return to the stage.
Enie Germon.
Miss Ellie Germon, of Wallaek's, is q
widow. Her late husband was a negro
minstrel named Gibbons, who died of a
prolonged and lingering malady. Hell
devotion to him was beautiful. She
spent all her earnings on his necessities
and comforts, and when she was not
occupied ut the theater in rehearsal oil
performance she was sitting, with hi:
hands in hers, by his bed Of long drawn
anguish. The offspring of her marriage
was delicate and interesting boy, tC
whom she is passionately attached.
Then there is Wrs. Wilkius-the only
Mother Frochard. 1t is safe, Of course,
to infer that there has been q Mr.
Wilkins. But who was he? 1t will
surprise q good many people to learn
that the late Serjeant Wilkins was one
of the most successful lawyers ever pro
I
began lite rs q pOt-he ended as mem
Der of Parliament. He used to conduct
a ''side-show" with a circus, and he
narrowly missed elevation to the Eng
lisn bench. And yet nobody that hear
his wife's name ever thinks of the once
celebrated and always cratic Sergeant
at-law.

Key, the tall red-headed and brawny
son of the late Phillip Barton Key, shot
in Washington by General Siekles.
Everybody knows that Minnie Mad
dern is fascinating and extremely
popular girlactreSs. But how many
people know that she is the wife OF Mr..
Legrand White, q young man who, i
he had not merged himself aud hi:
prospects in his wife's future, would BE-

in the public esteem as musician.
