viewing corps Of cavalry, suddenly stopped
before a splendId-looking fellow and asked
abruptly:
(Which is the best horse in the regiment ~
''No. 40, sir.n
'What makes you think he is the best
horse 20
"He walks trots and gallops well; is a good
jumper; has no vice, no blemish; carries his
head well; is in his prime"
"And who is the best soldier in the regl-
ment 2"
"Tom Jones, SIR"
"WhyW
"Because he is an honorable man, is obedi-
ent is tidy, takes good care of his equipment
and his horse and does his duty we'll"
Sand who is the rider of the best horse 20
"1om Jones, sir.n
Sand who is Tom Jones Yn

Tho General could not help laughing, but
he gave a sovereign TO his informant who re-
Ceived 1t without moving a muscle.

Tho First American Appearance of the

Tho First American Appearance ot inc
Great Tragcdinn.
Detroit Free Press The story Of the
elder Booths first appearance on the
American stage is told in this volume
("The Actor" an anonymous book, and
1t Is one of the bits Of dramatic history
that will live rs long rs the memory Of
the great actor survives.
lie was 2j years old when he arrived
in America lie landed at Norfolk,
Va, and at Richmond he found COM
pany PLAYING under the management of
Charles Gilfcrt, to whom Booth intro
duced himself An engagement was
Immediately effected, and he opened in
his favorite character of Richard III.
on the night of July IS, 1921 During
the first three acts so tame was the per-
formance that Gilfert was in doubt
whether he had not been the victim of
an impostor who had assumed the name
of Booth. This, however, was the ef-
feet Of illness induced by his sea voyage,
but in the fourth and fifth acts Richard
was himself again, and never, says the
historian, did this gifted genius repre-
sent the crook'd back tyrant with more
satisfaction to an audience. The eccen-
trio manager was in ecstacies and the
audience were electrified.
A gentleman who was in the Richmond
theatre that night relates that his little
daughter, who sat beside him, whispered;
Papa, could you see the two spiders
he was looking at on the floor2'
"No, my dear" was the reply, "but !
thought felt them crawl when he put
his hand TO his bosom TO tear them off"
This extract is from the scene referred
| to:
81 tell thee, coz, I've lately had two spiders
| Crawling upon my startled hopes.
Now, though thy friendly hand has brush'd
'em from me,
Yet still they crawl offensive TO my eyes.
| / would have some kind friend TO tread upor
'em;
| would be King, my cousin"

The Concert.

The concert of our young debutante
in cong was very successful on Wednes-
day evening. The appearance of three
pretty girls on the stage is an attraction
that will always draw. Miss Wilson
was pleased at the reception recorded
her by her friends and was in voice and
manner at her best. There was u
noticeable improvements volume and
sweetness OF tone in her voice. Miss
Carver played the accomplishments.
Miss Harlan rendered her selections
admirably and received much applause.
Both ladies were encored frequently.
This signal by which an audience
manifests its approval of the perform
ance is frequently seized by the vulgar
part of promiscuous audience to show
their native buffoonery, andlack of good
breeding, by unwarrantable stamping,
whistling and discordant noise after
the hearty encore has been given and
gracefully acknowledged by the recip-
lent of the honor. This annoyance on
the occasion was INDUCED in 10 most
provoking extent by that class of ad-
dlepates. The young ladies had most
hearty reception for which they doubt
less feel very grateful and are much
encouraged.

Pole Raising Rally.

A big meeting was arranged for
by the club to come off at Rising
Sun yesterday afternoon and even
ing. AS we make up our forms and
go to press Thursday evening the
hour the meeting is appointed for
we are too soon to give a report.
The pole which Mr.. j. T. McCul.
Tough produced was to be raised on
his lawn with appropriate ceremo-
MES and an evening meeting to be
held in the open air in front of the
Office of the MIDLAND JOURNAL at
the corner of Queen and Cherry
Streets, where a Campaign flag is to
be thrown to the breeze. r. G.
Thackery and H. R. Torbert were to
speak words of protection and assn
rance to the assembled crowds and a
big time was anticipated. And if
the coy and tilful weather didn't in
terfere no doubt this program was
carried out and rousing meeting
was held.
