Henry Irving and the Prince of
Wales


From the L,uisriLe Courier Journal.
Not long ago the Prince of Wales sent
Mr.. Henry Irving, the actor, a note
through his secretary. notifying him that
mis- royal highness would breakfast with
him at day and hour specified. Ac-
companying this notification was list
OF persons Mr.. Irving was to invite TO
meet the Prince. AT once the actor signi-
tied the delight which tnis evidence of the
royal favor had given him and begged per-
mission to add two guests. whom he
named, to those named by the Prince. The
answer was prompt negative. Mr..
Irving could only invite 20 his own break
fast in his own house the persons whose
names had been furnished him by his
self-invited guest. Then Mr.. Irving wrote
again. He besOugbt the royal clemency.
He ventured 10 reason the case. He said
that when ne was in America he had re-
ceiYed slgnai kindness and hospitality
from the individuals mentioned, that they
had Just arrived in London, and that he
knew not how 10 explain their exclusion
TO them IL they were to be excluded from
such an occasion. Theu his royal high
ness relented, and graciously consented
that MIR. Irving might ask mis- two Ameri-
can friends to his own table.
This is perfectly true story, and one
entirely characteristic OF the social sys-
tenn of England. IL the English like it,
that is their affair. Ii there are Ameri-
cans who like 1t, that is their affair.

A Profession That Brings Wealth to
Very Few.


Very Few.
The news of the purchase by Mr..
Whitelaw Reid of the Willard mansion
in New York city for the triae of $780,
900 will, in all probability, turn the
inclination of a few young men. hitherto
undecided, to journalistic pursuits. The
ability to purchase such a mansion they
will consider presupposes great finan-
cial success, and if Mr. Reid and few
others can attain such wealth they can
10 the same. In their rapturous con-
temptation of these instances of success
they apparently lose all sight of the
thousands who have entered the pro-
fession with equally bright hopes but
little or no money, and are struggling
on in comparative cbscurity, making q
fair living, perhaps, but not by any
means realizing their hopes on taking
up the pen. These are not men Of
meager ability or attainments. They
have mastered much and have become
a useful part of the Office furniture.
They perform theft several functions
with genuine spirit of enjoyment,
but like the unintelligent things that
90 to equip the office, they wear out
and their places are supplied by new
machines of intelligence.
In journalism, as in everything else,
il has come about particularly in the
older portions of the country, that the
man without money stands little chance
of getting rich; while, if he has
money, there are nine chances OF his
losing it to one OF saving and increas-
ing il. Mr.. Reid is one of the few
fortunate journalists who made some
money out of the profession. But his
opportunities were exceptional, first in
finding so valuable property as Mr..
Greeley had made The Tribune, and,
second, in being able to make it his
own. Mr.. Reds ability brought him
friends and bis marriage brought him
the money, which is to be considered
the main leverage to his business pros.
perity.
Young men should not be deluded by
any such instances rs this. There is
happiness and perhaps financial OPP
portunity in journalism for young men
whose hearts are in the work. 1t will
hardly be necessary for them to ask
others for advice about entering the
profession. If they are fitted for the
work they will know it almost by in
stnct and will set about it with an
enthusiasm that must bring success of
one sort or another, and, with it that
genuine enjoyment which every man
feels when his powers are best and

The Strangers of Paris.

A HERALD reporter attended the
matinee of the performance OF the
great drama, 1.-THE Strangers OF
Paris" 1t is exactly of the same pat
tern of hartley Campbel's "Galley
Slave and Thorne's "Black Flag" The
play itself is an exceedingly fine one
full of thrilling interest, excitement
and emotion from beginning to end
ing. the climaxcs being most excellent
Mr.. Tannehill, as Jagon the Stranger,
the man who, because the world
turned the back Of its hand to him,
steeled his heart to pity and his soul
to mercy, and became the cruel, muir
derous enemy of the world, and the
young lady who played his daughter
were the only people in the company
up to mcdiocrity, save the young lady
who, in very short role. played
the detectives assistant, and who
said. Handsome men have been
my men," She played her light role
with some naivettc and sparkle, but her
charming beauty added much to her
grace. Mr.. Tannehill is not star by
any sort of means but he is far along
in the ranks of the number one stock
actors, leading gentlemen to stars, the
young lady who played his daughter
is not well up to the character. She
does well in working up the climaxes,
but falls severely short in the emotion
al or tragic when they are reached.
The house at the matinee was small,
but that is no excuse for the actors in
one of the most touching scenes to be
1gagging" among themselves and gig
Cling and turning their heads away or
hiding their mouths with their hands
TO preveat the audience seeing their
laughter. The proper mounting OF
the play which is one half of its excel
lence could not be expected to be seen
here for there is great deal of it and
it is too expensive to carry IT even if it
could be gotten on Texas soil.

A Cloud Of Butterflies.

One Of the most beautiful sights in
the world is the annual migration OF
butterflies across the Isthmus of Pana-
ma. Where they come from or whittier
they 60 no one knows, and though many
distinguished naturalists have at
tempted to solve the problem 1t is still
as strange q mystery; as 1t was to the
first European traveller who observed
1t. Towards the end of June q few
scattered specimens are discovered fit
ting out to sea, and as the days 60 by
the numbers increase, until about the
l4th or 10th Of July the sky is occasion
ally almost obscured by myrlads of
these frail insects. Viewed from a dis
tance, or through telescope, the spec
tacleis wonderful. As the sun shines
on the millions of swiftly futtering
wings the result is aglistening and pull
sating haze Of golden green. When the
wind drives them to, the earth they can
be caught in handfnls. Swallows and
aycatchers single out the largest and
chase them for miles. On being exam
ined the butterfly Is found TO be of the
/. beautiful Urai,lq leil,ls species, Its
wings are of velvety black and bronze
and golden green. Occasionally It is
seen to settle on branches Of trees and
flowers before leaving land altogether.
But in spite Of the most active exer-
itions Of naturalists the origin and des.
tination Of the insects are absolutely
unknown.

How to cool a Cellar.

A great mistake Is sometimes made
in ventilating cellars and milk houses.
The object of ventilation is to keep
the cellars cool and dry, but this OBJ
ject often fails of being accomplished
by common mistake and instead the
cellar is made both warm and damp.
A cool place should never be ventilated,
unless the air admitted Is cooler than
the air within, or is,at least as cool
as that or very little warmer. The
warmer the abr thesplore moisture 1t
holds in suspension. Necessarily, the
cooler the air the more this moisture is
condensed and precipitated.r When a
cool cellar is aired on warm day the
entering air, being in motion, appears
cool; but as 1t fills the cellar the cooler
air with which ii becomes mixed chills
it, the moisture is condensed and dew
is deposited on the cold walls, and may
often be seen running down them in
streams. Then the cellar is damp and
soon becomes moldyp To avoid this
the windows should ohlybe opened at
night and late-the last thing before
retiring. There is nolneed to fear that
the night air is unhealthful; 1t is as
pure as the air of midday, and is really
drier. The cool air enters the apart
ment during the night and circulates
through 1t. The windows should be
closed before sunrise In the morning,
and kept closed and shaded through
the day. If the air Of the cellar is
damp it may be thoroughly dried by
placing in it peck of fresh lime in an
open box. A peck Of lime will absorb
about seven pounds or more than three
quarts of water, and in this way a
cellar or milk room may soon be
dried, even In the hottest kind Of
weather.
