THE ORIGIN OF ROLLER SKATES.

In view of the fact that roller
skating has played such havoc with
theatre patronage, it will be inter-
esting to the stage profession to
know that it was out of the demand
for stage effects that roller skating
was invented. Mr.. Kobbe writes
to the French press to say:
"I am told by Herr Hook, the
stage manager of the Metropolitan
Opera House, that all who enjoy
roller skating are indebted for their
sport to the famous composer,
Meyerbeer. When his opera The
Prophet was produced in Paris it
was almost decided at one time to
cut out the skating scene in the
third act, rs the manager saw no
way of converting the stage into n
sheet of ice. In this crisis an in
genious stage hand came forward
and suggested that ordinary skates
