The machine consists of tin cylinder,
punctured with irregularly shaped holes, and
fnclosing two or three gas jets. When the
cylinder is turned, the light from the gas jets
inside is, Of course, thrown in flashes and
patches on whatever it shines on.
Waves are generally initiated by laying a
great green cloth over the stage, under which
a number Of men or boys jump up and down
in rhythmic motion. The rocking of the
RATS, etc., used in shipwreck scenes is
brought about by machines built for that
purpose, and holding up the apparently frail
support of the make believe unfortunates.
Oftentimes the whole scenery of an elabo-
rate piece is controlled by machinery. A
favorite scheme is to have things arranged
so that when a scene is finished the scenery
will turn on pivot, bringing the other side,
which consists of the stage setting for the
next scene, into view Sometimes a change
of scenery is brought about with rather
startling effect by suddenly extinguishing
the lights and having trained men shift the

orally be found in splint bandage or black
and blue spot.
One of the things which generally most de-
light and mystify children who applaud the
pantomimes is the light and airy way in
which the ''fairies" float around in the air.
What a pretty sight it is, to be sure, to
watch a group of smiling girls, dressed in
spangled skirts, holding star tipped wands in
their hands, and gracefully moving their tin
eel wings, soar slowly up into the canvas sky
The spectacle from behind the scenes, how
ever, is not SO enchanting. Each fairy" has
a leather belt buckled about her slender
waist. To ring in the back of this belt a
fine but strong wire invisible from the
'front.' is attached, which runs over pulley
located in the regions above the stage. This
wire is in turn fastened to windlass, at the
crank of which is stationed perspiring NOR
tai When the word is given for the fairies
to fly, down goes the back of the man, around
goes the windlass andup goes the fairy.
Another thing which always pleases the
children is the entrance Of the dragon. Very
fierce indeed he looks, with his bescaled back,
sharp claws, curling tail, and open mouth
belching flames. But from the rear he does
not appear at all terrific. He is only can
vas dragon, mounted on a wooden frame
with wheels. Two or three men push him
along, and the flames are only q cunning ar
rangement of Roman fire.
Stage snow storms are produced by drop
ping bits of paper from the flies, and once in
a while the carelessness of the property man
results in the descent of a cloud of lavender
or brown flakes, which look anything but
snow like.
The stage of a theatre is queer place, full
of strange noises and sights quite as interest
ing when viewed from behind as when gazed
at from the pit

ments, the latter are probably in use in a
majority of theatres. A good story has been
told Of a manager, who, in stage slang, was
somewhat 'pernickty" in regard to the con-
duct of affairs at his theatre. One night a
piece was son" in which thunder was re-
quired. For some reason or other the noise
was not produced in manner satisfactory
to the manager. In high dudgeon he called
q rehearsal next day for the particular pur-
pose of improving the quality of the thun-
der. The members of the company plodded
through furious storm to the theatre. The
rehearsal begSn, the thunder gods' stand
ing in fear and trembling lest an unsatisfac-
tory effort should result in their discharge.
The time for the first clap came and the shot
and tin roared sullenly, and with what the
members Of the company thought was fine
effect. But the manager was not pleased.
Every bad, he CALCULATED.
Another effort met with the same COM
ment. In the meantime black clouds had
been rolling up in the sky, and when the cue
came for the third peal Of thunder, the feeble
artificial roar was drowned by crashing

peal Of the real thing. This the manager did
mot note, and when the echoes died away his
voice rose in loud protest against the poor
quality of the thunder--nature's own.
"Confound til" he exclaimed, "why can't
you fellows put some life in it, That sounded
about as much like thunder as it did Ike a
steam whistle"
! The matter was explained to him amidst
the filters of the actors and actresses, and ha
hasn't complained since.
Another thing which is frequently copied
on the stage is running water. Sometimes
Though not often, real water is used When
this is not the case things are fixed up like
this: On the stage, in view of the audience
a strip of canvas is arranged to serve for the
cascade, painted as nearly as possible in the
semblance of q water fall. To add to the real
ism the canvas is made in an endless band,
which is kept in steady motion by means of
a crank, the side toward the audience moving
downward. This arrangement alone would be
but poor counterfeit of a cascade, SO there

Very Polite.

A shabbily dressed man of humble mien
softly opened the door of small restaurant
near the court house a few days ago, and
those eating at the tables listened to the con-
versation that followed:
"Do you want your front oiledg"
mo, sir" replied the proprietor.
81 can do it in little while"
"No, sir; not today"
an do it cheap"
"No, moneys tight just now"
"I'll do it for dollar m half"
mo, sir" sharply.
The meek individual thought for a mo-
ment, and then, with touch of sadness in
his voice, exclaimed:
you'll excuse me for coming in?"
Certainly" was the reply, and the polite
stranger withdrew. Philadelphia Inquirer.

A Cautious Reioinder.

An elegantly dressed woman asked to
be shown some silk for gowns, and made
the unfortunate clerk hand down piece
after piece without coming to any de-
cision.
Finally she concluded she would pre-
fer some patterns that she had first looked
at, which involved the turning over of
the entire pile, and at last asked:
care you quite sure, sir, that this
style is worm"

"when you came in, but after the period
that has since elapsed I should not like

lights are again turned on, the appearance Of
the stage is entirely altered.
The putting Of locomotives, which is some
times initiated on the stage is produced by
the regular rubbing together of two stiff
wire brushes, and the rspective-diminishe
trains which dash wildly across the back of
the scene are built of painted canvas and
guided by the brawny arms of scene shifter.
The labyrinth of trap doors and like appli-
ances to be found in the average stage floor
is too complicated for the uninitiated to keep
track OF, and sometimes even professionals, in
an unlucky moment tumble Internationally
through an open trap or blindly trip over a
close lying shifting rope. In fact, accidents
of this kind are so common that some of the
big companies hire a doctor to be on hand
during performances to dress the wounds of
unlucky thespians Such occurrences are
particularly common in the production of
those pieces which involve "horse playn and
tomfoolery, and many actors and actresses
have been seriously hurt by falls which they
were obliged to make while acting their
parts. Some cases are even on record where
falls perhaps necessitated by pretended muir
der or sudden death-have proved fatal, real

The ingenuity Of the stage carpenter and
his assistants is probably brought more into
