before the mast. There he earned his living az
q harness maker, and afterward by repairing
cavalry trappings Tor the men under General
Houston's command in Texas. He must soon
have tired of this occupation, for he Joined a
stock company and made his professional debut
in 'sRob Roy,n at Natchez Miss, on February
IA, 1887. For two years thereafter he hlled he
dual functions of player and prompter at
theaters In Memphis, Vicksburg, Nafcnez and
New Orleans.
AT the opening of Mitchelps Olympic Theater
in New York on December 9, 1882 Mr.. Baker
was engaged to officiate as prompter and act
the parts OF walking gentlemen" The en-.
gagement was renewed annually for ten years,
and during that period he wrote a number of
pieces that received successful productions.
Among these was q local sketch called New
York In l848," which was brought out on Febru-
ary l5, lS4S. introducing for the first time the
since renowned character of Nose. Frank Chan.
frau's personation of the New York "b'hoy''
was received with the utmost applause. The
author then elaborated this character, adding
another act and several new parts the complete
piece being thus represented during run of 70
nights under the title of "a Glance at New
York" He afterward wrote "Mose in China
and Nose in California"
In 1850 Mr.. Baker became joint partner with
w. b. English in the management of the
Howard Athen3um of Boston. The following
year he managed the National Theater at
Mrs. Sinclair to take charge of the Metropolis
tan Theater at San Francisco. After taking
Laura Keene's company on profitable tour
through the mining towns Of California, Mr..
Baker came East with Edwin Booth, and in
the fall of 1856 TOOK Mr.. Booth on his first
starring tour. in the course of which the now
famous tragedian appeared under his man
agement in all the principal cities of the
country 1t is interesting to know that Mr..
Baker was stage manager of the old Chatham
Theater when Edwin Booth, then a very
youthful actor, Unexpectedly appeared as
Richard III. one night in place of his father,
who was indisposed. The friendship between
Mr. Booth and Uncle Ben remained unbroken,
and they always referred to each other as
Ted" and "Ben."
Toward the end of the fifties Mr.. Baker
again managed Laura Keene, and was filing
that position when ''The Seven Sisters" was
produced at her Broadway Theater on Noyem-
Der 26. 1860. The play ran for 1859 nights which
was then considered an unusually long run. In
1877 Mr.. Baker was engaged by John 7. Ford
to rehearse the various stock companies that
were to perform in tho theaters the Baltimore
manager controlled in the South
The career Of Sol Smith Russell.is interesting
to all lovers of the higher forms of comedy.
The play written for him by the prolific Dion
Boucicault, entitled "A Tale Of Coat" does
not appear to have made an astounding sue
cess. This fact is emphasized by Mr.. RusselPs
revival of Kidder's "a Poor Relation at
Daly's Theater, in New York tomorrow night.
Pittsburg audiences will be very well satisfied
to see Mr.. Russell in the latter play.

scepter in another capacity, but the summer
girl as such is now back number. Prob
ably she has been out in greater force this

will sail on to the harbor bar of Christmas.
Scars will longer mark where she laid her
imperial hand on the hearts of men.
As for the queen herself, her majesty the
summer girl, she will content herself with

and as the red leaves fall, who knows? she
may condescend to take a husband.
