Playing to One Auditor.

II find that the best guide for an art
ist is to select ON face in the audience
and play to that" said Miss Helen Bly,
the, the actress. ut is q splendid in
dicator. OF course you must select an
intelligent face-one that can be inter-
ested., Then / watch the effect of my
lines and acting, and I know just what
to do. Ii the face become disinterested
and relaxes attention, 1 nerve myself to
greater action and become more intense.
If the face shows signs of o~ver-anxiety,
l know that l have about become as in
tense as it is in my power to be, or
rather as strong as is necessary. I can
see by the features and actions of this
face whether applause is zeal or not
it is like the flash before the report OF
a cannon; for the same words or actions
that move that one auditor to emo
tions or applause move the house.
The same emotions run through
all natures, and when you touch
the heart of one you touch the
common heart of humanity. If the
face | had singled out should leave the
theatre and not return, [ presume my
efforts for the remainder Of the enter
tainment would not be successful. I
have never been SO unfortunate, andI
have always endeavored to select an liz
telligent-looking face, n that can be
held. l never forget these faces.
They are almost indellibly impressed
upon my memory, and months and
months afterward they come up before
me in procession like the noted events
of ones life. Oh, no; not unpleasant
ly. / frequently meet those faces on
the streets of another city, and I at
once recall where I had seen them.
Sometimes | am on the point of speak
ing, under the impression that I have
met an old acquaintance. Oh, no. II
does not distract my pttention from my
work. 1t prevents my attention from
W ndering. My entire attention is con
centrated on one object, and I am tell
ing the story of the drama with oil ms
energy and emotional powers to that
object. 1t rather intensifes my efforts
than weakens them."-N. Y. News.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The monotony of life in suburban
Frankford and among the coal-heavers
of East Lehigh avenue has been broken
during tho past week by the return of
OBrien's and ~Forepaugh's c%ircuses
from their summer wanderings. Frank
ford has long enjoyed the reputation of
q frst-class winter headquarters for IN
Vulnerable freaks and circus employees,
and Richmond has for some time been
made the rallying point of F%orepaugh's
aggregations. The arrival of the cir
Gus at its winter quarters is not unlike
the return home Of an army from a war.
Both men and animals, and even the
wagons, have q tired look that tells the
story of their thousand miles of tedious
travel during the long and hot summer
months.
"The removal Of the wild animals
from their cages on wheels, s" said Jack
Forepaugh on Saturday, '"to their
winter quarters is verY simple, but at
the same time it requires experience,
because if nj of them escaped it might
mean death to some one. We use what
is called a shirting-box. 1t is a COM
mon wood concern, with q sliding door.
This is placed at the door of the cage
and n animal at q time is forced INTO
it. When in the doors of the cage and
box are closed and the box is carried 10
the cage in the permanent building. It
sometimes takes an hour to remove one
lion. Perhaps he will only partly enter
the box, making it impossible to close
the door. 1t does not do to use too much
force with him.
"We keep the largest of the wild AMI
mails on the second floor of the building
and the box is hoisted up there with q
derrick. 1t is twice as cary a matter
taking them down. We place q creased
board from the floor to the cage
below, and they slide right down and
are in the cage before they know it,"
A keeper was engaged in watering
the wild animals out of a tin pan. One
Of the lions refused to drink. The
keeper ran his hand through the bars
of the cage and patted the animal on
the head.
Don't be stubborn, Moses" he said.
coaxingly. Drink your water like a
good old fellow. There, now, that's q
good Moses"
"That lion," said Mr.. Forepaugh "is
just like a baby. You have to coax
him to do everything. See how lie is
drinking. He was thirsty"
10 you suppose he understands
what you say to him?"
"Of course he does-every word. On
any subject that he is concerned in YOU
may be sure he knows what I nv.
These animals have dispositions much
the same as human beings. Some can
only be governed by kindness, others
by force. There is every bit as much

wouid AZ soon See Mr.. Ford elected as

1icans have such an excellent candidate
as Mr. Stidham for Sheriff, there is M
cause for them going outside Of the

Let every Republican stand by Mr.
Stidham. We told Mr.. Ford more thar
once through the columns of the RE
PUBLICAN that he would be slaughter
ed in the house of his friends. We told
him that the old Know Nothing leader,
of his party would not support him.
We cannot help this, Mr.. Ford canno
help it, but III his extremity h. canno
expect Republican votes, while Repub
licans have such an unexceptionabl,
candidate in opposition to him as Mr.
Stidham.
Mr.. Ford would despair of election if h
did not expect to get large Republican
vote to max. up for the detection in hi

port, and il he does, why should h
receive it, are questions that concern
Republicans.

Cievelsnd's Letter.

We do not mean the little epistle he |
came out of the woods to fire off, telling |
the people that he accepted the nomina- |
ton for the Presidency and then re-
treated back to his hole again. Moth
ing of the kind. Grover Cleveland
wrote other letters besides letters of ac-
ceptance. He may have written love
letter. for aught We know, for his
life shows that he was not averse to the
society of ladies', especially of widows,
but the letter we refer to is one of an
other stamp and character altogether.
1t was written to the City Council of
Buffalo after he had resigned his Office
ms Mayor, and was elected Governor of
New York. Here is the letter

ed for postage and other incidental ex-
peuses connected with my office the

in the ex- Mayors letter For instance,
the incidentsls alluded TO were made
up of such charges as 20 cents for three

him New Years address. He gave
the carrier boys d quarter apiece There
was nothing mean about him, not bit
and he wanted the boys to know it. Blu
he got his seventy-fve cents back again
the city of Buffalo paying the bill. An
other item was seventy-tive cents for
brush and 60 nh, aud the city OF Buffalo
paid it. Nothing mean about Cleve
land, no indeed. He was clearly an'
kept his hair nicely combed and brush
