contact with Modjeska is likely to be oblivi-
GUS of the existence of Count Bozenta, ner
husband. A nervous, excitable, energetic
descendant of the race which has for so
long been ground under Russia's heel he
has, since Modjeskas contract with Daniel
Frohman expired, been her sole manager,
though he is materially assisted by the SUI
perabundant brains of clever little Fred
Stinson. Tall, thin, dark, with piercing
black eyes perpetually rolling or smoking
cigarettes Bozenta is always on the rush,
and manages in his vehement manner toget
through an immense amount of work dur
ing the twenty-four hours He is won
derfully well-bred and well educated man.
Fanny Davenport, whose production OF
Sardou's unpleasant play of La Tosca"
has recently caused so much and such
varied comment, is in private life Mrs.
Price, and as in SO many cases her husband,
Edmund Price, is also her manager. They
have been married for some time, and Mr..
Price is at least energetic In the manner In
which he looks after the affairs of his wife.
Minnie Madden, who knowing ones say
has great future before her, is Mrs. White
off the STAGE though she and her youthful
husband have been separated for more than
year. Young White is to be seen almost
daily on Broadway, and in one way or an
other gains his living out of the theatrical
profession.
Miss Annie Russell, whose performance
of Elaine was the chief and most popular
feature of the successful run of Rathrop
and Edwards adaptation of Tennyson
idyll at the Madison Square Theatre, is
Mrs. Gene Presbrey. Presbrey is probably
the cleverest stage manager on this side of
the Atlantic, and has for several seasons su-
perintended the Madison Square Theatre
productions. He is a clever water-color
painter, the writer of more than one good
play, and on occasion a conscientious and
capable actor.
Miss Marie Burroughs, whose recent work
has surprised the critics, and who bids fair
to become one of the most admired of our
leading actresses, is the wife of Louis
Mason, member of Mr.. Palmer's COM
pany. Mason is a delightful fellow off the
stage, always overlooking with animal
spirits, and his CHEEKY voice and ready
jests have lightened many dull day on the
road or evening at the theater for his COM
panions. HORACE TOWNSEND.

Why Mrs. Cleveland Likes Senator
Palmer.
From the Ne,o York Tribune.


One of the most cordial admirers Mrs.
Cleveland has is Senator Palmer, of Michi-
gan, who has frequently declared that if
Mrs Cleveland should be nominated by the
Democrats, he would bolt his own party
and support her. A number of the Sena-
tors friends and constituents called at the
White House this week and when. in the
course of conversation, the Senator'S name
was mentioned, Mrs Cleveland said that
she had had grateful feeling for Mr..
Palmer ever since the occurrence of a little
incident some years ago on the Canada
Southern railroad.
"a Young girl" she said, twas on her
way from visit to friends in Michigan to
her own home in the State of New York.
When the train was about to cross the Sus-
pension Bridge, this little girl with every
one in the car crowded to the platform to
get a view of the falls; although she had
lived in Western New York all her life she
had never seen them, and was afraid that
the crowd on the platform was so great that
she would not be able TO see them this time.
A fine-looking gentleman, however, whom
she had watched all the way from Detroit,
noticed the DISAPPOINTMENT on her face and
persuaded some OF the passengers to give her
n Mace on the platform where she could see
the falls to perfection. After the bridge
was passed she thanked him for his kindness
and asked for his name, which he said was
Tom Palmer, of Detroit; then he asked for
her name and was told that it was Frances
Folsom, of Buffalo"
Frances Folsom, of Buffalo, was then a
schoolgirl and afterward visited Niagara
Falls frequently, but she never forgot her
friend, Tom Palmer, of Detroit. She learned
from the newspapers that he had been elect
ed to the Senate, and when she came to
Washington, before her marriage to the
President as the guest Of Miss Cleveland,
She met him at the White House but never
recalled the incident to his memory.
1t was not until his friends repeated their
conversation with Mrs Cleveland to Sena-
tor Palmer that he identified the young
schoolgirl with the wife of the President;
He recollected the incident very well ana
had often recalled the pretty face Of the
girl but had forgotten her name. The next
time he sees Mrs Cleveland he proposes ito
talk over old tiues.n
