THE BOOTH FAMILY.
Tbs Death of Junius Brutus Booth
Calls Up Some Reoollsctions of
the Father and the Family.
The Playing Of the Elder booth
In Louisville While on a Big
.Gd W. spree.


COurier-Journal, is.
The death OF Junius Brutus Booth
has caused q stir among members Of
the profession and old theater- goers
II brings up "reminiscences Of that
gifted family, which has reigned SUI
preme on the American stage for the
better part ofa half century. Many
are the stories that will be told Of the
fiery, generous hearted, eccentric old
father as the actors lounge around the
greenroom and yawn through a re,
hearsal, or the theater goers Of half a
century ago tell their grandchildren Of
the brave days Of old.
All the Booths we're we'll known in
this city, and Junius Brutus, who was
the least interesting OF the family, had
numerous friends here.
Mr.. Sam Drake, the veteran actor,
who was most intimately associated
with the Booth family for years, was
talking of the olden times yesterday:
=" was raised up with the Booths and
knew all the boys like brothers.
Junius had but little Of the family
genius. He didn't have the old mans
fire nor Ned's accuracy. He played
only in secondary parts. He was a
thorough gentleman, a man Of the
keenest sense OF honor, and a good
manager, but he was not much OF On
actor. | think old Booth himself has
never been equaled on the stage. |
am an actor myself, and | have seen
all the great lights Of the stage for
half q century, and he was in my
opinion the superior Of all. He was
one Of the most quick,tempered of
men, but was warm hearted aud
generous. | remember one night he
was to play at the old Operahouse,
which stood where the Courier Jour
nal now stands. | was put in charge
Of him, and was held responsible for
his appearance. The time came for
him to be at the theater and he failed
to come. Time passsd aud still he
did not come. We we're al uneasy,
and | more than any Of the rest. |
heard him mention that he had a
friend, an old Scotohman, living down
in Portland, and I Jumped in a hack
and started after him. Sure enough
there he and the old mar sat drinking
bottle deep. l spoke to him, and he
got up after q little and went on up TO
the theater with me. | had no idea
that he was in any condition to play.
Indeed, he had to hold himself up
against the scenes to brace up. But
the audience went wild that highland
those who had seen him a dozen times
before in the same character said that
he never did it halt 50 we'll. Nee
was aquiet boy, and didn't show much
talent when he was young. He was q
great companion Of John G. Heenau
and other sports of that kind, and ]
talked to him once seriously about it,
He broke off all that kind of a%ssocia,
ton, and his manners now are totally
different. He is cold. frigidly polite
aud taciturn. He changes when be
meets an old friend like me and thaws
out, but usually he is the most re.
served Of men. He is by all odds the
greatest Of the boys Junius, who is
dead, was a good tempered lad, but he
had nothing at the genius Of the old
man"

Miss Many Anderson is a sensible as
we'll as q gifted and a persevering
young woman. She is e splendid
specimen of womanhood, whose head
has Tot been turned by success and
alttery. So much the better, as an
assurance of her future career, she
has been before the public long enough
to satisfy the most exActing critics that
her position has been fairly won, and
that her triumphs are not ephemeral
Aside from her superior advantages IN
physique and mind, and her passion
for the drama 10 It's purity aud It's
highest conceptions and aims. She
has been attended by another inesti>
mable blessing seldom enjoyed BY
young actresses 10 their first contact
with the stage world. She has been
accompanied 10 all her travels by her
mother, q pure Christian woman, Of
fine sense and traits Of character that
would fit her to shine in any circle OF
refinement and culture. Mary
has always honorcd and been
guided BY her mother, and that
blessing promised 10 Holy Writ seems
to follow her. Such a girl will never
make a serious mistake in the selec
ton Of companions OF in her general
conduct. Mary Anderson is a noble
example as a cOnfding and obedient
daughter for the girls of America,
whether they happen to be
known to the world or only in their
immediate neighborhood and circle.
Although earnest and sensible in
every thing, she enjoys life like a child
and deprives herself Of no rational
pleasure. She decliaed aa introduce,
ton to the Prince Of Wales, so it is
reported, not from any prudery or
Whimi but on account Of his name as a
fast man who has little respect for the
intrinsic qualities of character that
should protect every woman. II is
very doubtful, however, whether she
made any such formal and suggestive
reply as reported, She probably de.
clined without making any speech. A
discreet sensible mother perhaps had
something to do with it, for in private
life they are said to be companions, as
mother and daughter should be.

The Tire Ordinance.

An ordinance was passed some time
since requiring all tires Of drays, ex'
press wagons, omnibuseS, etc, to be
widened on the LIST Of next January,
The object is a good one, as it looks to
the preservation of the pavements, a
wide tire Of course being less wearing
on the pavements. But the owners Of
the vehicles aimed at, those that carry
heavy loads, think that the rigid en-.
forcement Of such an ordinance
would be arbitrary and work great
hardship. 1t is not to be
supposed that all. the omni-
buses, freight and express wagons, ETC.,
will be worn out and be ready to be
thrown away on the 9lst of next De-
cember. Many Of these vehicles are
almost new and will last for a year or
two. To widen the tires as contem-
plated would involve a heavy outlay
and serious loss. A petition
has been laid before the Taxing Dis
trict government asking, we believe,
that the ordinance be made to apply
only to new vehicles put on the street.
This would give the old ones a
chance to run out their time
without loss to their owners
This is a more important question
than may at first -ppear to a casual
investigator. There ia a great zeal Of
money invested in the local carrying
business and those engaged in it are
hard working men who earn every
dollar they make by the sweat that
comes Of honest toll. 1t is the part Of
wisdom to look ahead to the preserva-
ton Of well paved Streets and it might
be we'll to prohibit the heavier loads
from running over certain thorough
fares, but the owners Of this local
transportation have some vested
rights as it we're, which ought to be
respected. 10 putting on the ways Of
a metropolis, a due regard should be
had for the rights of all classes and
individuals. Where there is a public
necessity that requires the occupation
or injury of private property, there
should be public equity and fair com.
pensatiOn. This question win no
doubt be properly considered by the
Council as it deserves.
