CRUEL AS A DEMON.
A Washington Lady Describes Sarah
Bernhardt's Uncomfortable Temper.

From the New York Evening World
Washington society lady who has just re-
turned from Europe tells a new story on Sarah
Bernhardt which ought to have the effect OF
softeniug the language which some people use
in discussing Sarah's critics.
The Washington lady was a great admirer OF
the actress and while in Paris last spring took
occasion TO call on her. The Bernhardt some
times amuses herself painting and modelling.
She received the Washington lady very kindly
and invited her earnestly to call again. After
a lapse OF few weeks another visit WAS made
to the actress. She was found very much alb
sorbed in the half finished figure of her little
model which she had been working at.
At the request of the Washington lady. who
was anxious to see her at work, she continued
working After awhile a frisky little spaniel,
the pet of Sarah, rushed into the room, wag-
ging his tail and painting with delight. The
little dog sprang upon the lap Of the actress,
but she was so much interested in her work
that the spaniel did not receive the expected
caressing. After the dog had interrupted her
work by repeating this evidence OF affection
several times she became very much irritated
and expressed herself with energy in highly
seasoned language.
But the little spaniel, not understanding,
kept on his gambols until Bernhardt, evidently
exasperated, arose with a shrek and with q
demoniacal expression on her face, lifted the
poor little animal by the loose skin at the back
of the neck and raising the top from Chom-
beschi stove which stood in the room, thrust
the yelping little animal in on the hot Goals;
then shutting the cover down she calmly re-
sumed her work, as if utterly unconscious of
the heartrending cries Of her pet, which grew
fainter and fainter as he slowly roasted to
death.
The Washington lady who witnessed this,
says:
''You can imagine my position. The express
sion on Sarah's face was that of a wild beast
hungry for blood have never seen anything
like it. But I did not dare to demonstrate or
go to the little dogs rescue for fear that
might share like fate. But l left Sarah's
presence as rapidly as 1 could, and You may be
sure that did not return"

CHILDREN CRYING FOR BREAD.
Pttfable Condition Of the Locked Out
Miners at Streator, Ill.

Congressman Lawler and other members Of
the business mems relief committee left Chicago
yesterday morning with additional supplies for
the half-starved locked-out coal miners at
Streator, Ill A reporter talked with Mr.. Gee
rahty, whose business in Streator has been
nearly ruined by the miners troubiea Mr..
Geerahty has been in Milwaukee for some days
soliciting relief. ave have two carloads Of
provisions to distribute to-day" said Mr.. Gee
rahty, 'but what will that amount to when di-
vided among 6, 600 starving miners, the majority
OF whom are married men with families? It
will scarcely last two days for the poor fellowa
The condition of the men is almost indescriba-
bic. 1 can truthfuly say that many people are
actually starving. The babies and children
cry for bread and wallow in the muddy streets,
but their mothers have become Gallons to their
cries and do not seem to mind They say but
little and complaints are infrequent; they just
keep silent in their misery few are very
proud and affect to be light-hearted, when they
have not thing to eat in the house. tell you
1t Is horrible and no one can realize the awful
sufferings until he gets right in the midst OF
the misery. Business has gone to smash and
stagnation rules everywhere. Unless the miners
are given work soon or further relief comes
you viii soon hear Of some deaths from starva-
ton"
