SOUTHBURY.
SHERMAN E. WARNER.

Among our older citizens, few were more widely known, locally, than Sher- man B. Warner, who died, last week, nearly 80 years old. He leaves a wife, once Lydia Hall, daughter of Capt Eli Hall, whose property has been in the hands of Mir Sherman and his wife since the death of her father. A son and daughter survive; Arthur, of the Wood bury law firm of Huntington & Warner and daughter, wife of Dr Coddington of Duchess county, NY. The funeral, Monday, at 30 at the house in White Oak, was largely attended, Rev .Chaun- cey Linsley of Woodbury officiating and the interment was in the cemetery close by. MT Warner was devoted and active member of the Episcopal church, being senior warden of the church here. He was also justice for many years and, as buyer of country produce for the Waterbury market, had made many friends in the surrounding country. For merly, he drove through the country to Waterbury, but, since the New England was built, had discontinued his route across the hills. Coming here from Wa terbury over 45 years ago, he at first purchased the property now used by MT Wakelee as a blow foundry. but soon disposed of it. His record as a man, a citizen and churchman is one worthy of emulation.

EDWIN BOOTH'S OPINION
Ofthe Difference Between Audiences of the
East and West.

Ofthe Difference Between Audiences of the
East and West.
'I have nowhere found" says Edwin
Booth, more enthusiastic audiences than
in the West. and see no special difference
between their behavior and the conduct of
Eastern theater-goers. There has been a
good deal said about the readiness of West
ern people to applaud some .favorite senti-
ment in play, stopping the actor in the
middle of a soliloquy even to express approx
al, and have been asked since have been in
st. Louis if that were not intensely annoy
ing.
"Well, I don't find it so. The applause
not only cheers and stimulates the actor, but
it gives him an opportunity to catch his
breath and rest for a moment, considerations
which far more than balance the very slight
interruption of his thought 1t is only per-
functory applause that chills the actor He
is perfectly willing that people should stop
a speech or the progress of an effective
scene if they are moved by the acting to
break into demonstration of approval"
