Fuel Eanina.

For the past few days there has
been quite a furry in the fuel market,
on account of the scarcity of coal. Sew
eral OF our manufactures have been
running very light, in consequence, as
coal could scarcely be had of any kind,
and fire wood was scarce. The
McAllister mines in the Indian terri
tory has had a strike and no coal from
this place could be had. The Lytle
coal shaft was in bad fix and the
Eagle Pass company happened to
have no coal on hand at the time. It
is understood, today, that plenty of
coal is now on hand and matters are
running along as ever.

Ten BatherS,

Last night between and 9 o'clock
10 boys were bathing in the river at
the Mill bridge ford, contrary to ordi-
nance which requires the regulation
bathing suit to be worn. The electric
light made them fully visible to all
who passed OH the bridge and if that
did not attract the attent ton of ladies
and gentlemen, their loud cries and
oaths did.

Romantic Story of Clara Morris Leap
from Obscurity Into Prominence.

Romantic Story of Clara Morris Leap
from Obscurity Into Prominence.
John W. Norton, in the St Louis Globe
Democrat says: The appearance Of Miss Clara
Morris, the greatest living emotional actress,
in St Louis this week is my excuse for telling
:he romantic story of her miraculous bound
in single night from the obscurity of a
minor member of the Daily stock company in
New York to the pinnacle of fame. 1t was
after Miss Morris had closed her engagements
at Cincinnati, where she had been success
sively leading lady Of Macauleys Woods
Theatre company and Bob Miles company at
the old National, that secured her an engage
ment with Days company, in September,
1870 They were on the eve Of producing a
dramatization of Wilkie Collins MAN and
Wife," and Agnes Ethel, who then the
reigning New York favorite was cast for the
intense and trying role of Annie Sylvester
Miss Morris had assigned her a very small
part, with perhaps a dozen lines. She was
much aggrieved thereat, and was thinking
reriously Of canceling her engagement and
accepting an engagement at New Orleans.
Then there occurred an accident that was
the turning point in her life Agnes Ethel,
in stepping from coupe, sprained an ankle
so it was given out, although many main
tanned that she really shrunk from the trying
possibilities of the role assigned her. 1t was
impossible to go on, and DAILY, in despair, ap
pealed to one after the other of the ladies of
the company to assume the part, but they all
evaded accepting it, until, in despair, DAILY
asked Miss Morris would she try it. He in
tended to fake" through the week and then
change the bill. No announcement was made
of the change, and when an immense audi
ence gathered on the opening night there was
great dissatisfaction because Agnes Ethel
was not in the cast, and there were demands
for a return of admission money at the box
office
The unknow1i girl came on and not hand
was heard. All the other members of tn,
company had received the usual first night
greeting. The minutes went on and Mis-
Morris had done nothing TO attract attention
until at last her opportunity came i'll a single
brief, impasSiOned scene with her recreant
lover, Godfrey. The audience was dazed fOT
a moment, but as the curtain fell they awoke
to such storm of applause as had never he
fore been heard within those walls The
blushing timid genius, who had arisen from
a sick bed to make this effort to demand rec
ognition at the hands of New York audi
ence, was called before the curtain -four
times, and her progress through the play wa
an ovation. The next day the town rung
with praises of the new Cushman from the
west, and Clara Morris had taken the plac,
at the head OF her profession in her line OF
acting, which she has held undisputed ever
since

already caused. These enthusiasts, carried

Restaurant Etiquette.

Keep your hat on while you eat.
Plunge into the butter with your own
knife.
Never make more than two bites of slice
of bread
Spread out your elbow so as to annoy your
neighbor.
The napkin, properly considered is not a
handkerchief
If your butter plate is empty dab into the
mans nearest by.
If your waiter is inattentive knock loudly
with your knife on your glass.
Always eat with your knife. Grasp it
firmly and sink it into your throat TO the
hilt.
Suck your soup slow out of the spoon. II
makes more noise and attracts attention.
If you haven't had your hat on, knock
down several hats in taking yours from TIE
rack.
Don't unbutton your vest 1t would indi-
cate that you are addicted to the bad habit
of overeating
Don't call the waiter to hand you the salt.
Knock over your neighbours trying to reach
for it yourself.
Don't forget to pay at the desk. You
might be unable to convince the cashier that
it was a case of mere forgetfulness.
Eat as rapidly as possible, and at every
mOuthful scrape the plate with your knife
It sets peoples teeth on edge.
If you are pretty well acquainted with the
waiter and tip him occasionally you NAV be
able to get him to give you twenty cent
check for a fifty cent meal.-Atlanta Ameri.

Musical Publishers and Amateurn.

Music publishers, equally with book
publishers, have large dealings with am
ateurs, that is to say, with people who
have written songs as a diversion, and
are determined to have them published
at all hazards. And music publishers
tell some very funny stories about such
experiences. One funny story they do
not tell either with frequency or gusto.
In several cases amateurs who have pub
blished songs on their own account have
stumbled upon successes, and, of course,
have pocketed all the profits. This con-
tingency is now provided against by pub
fishers requiring that the amateur song
writer shall buy sufficient number of
his songs at the retail price to cover the
cost of publication. Thereafter the pub
