Working the New York Press.

Here is the funny way in which the genial
press agent "works" the gullible writers in
New York: "The horses used in The Pa
troll which will be the opening attraction
at the Park Theater in August, are known
as Jim and Frank, and they are veterans in
the Chicago Police Department. They
passed through several riots unhurt, espe-
cialiy the Anarchist riot at Haymarket
square, where they dashed into the crowd OF
rioters and actually fought their way
through the dense crowd by biting at all
within reach. rearing and paving savagely
at the rioters. AT the second riot at the Nc
Cormck reaper works, Chicago, they pur-
sued the same tactics, and the team became
noted among the vicious elements as the
white Patrol, although they were the most
gentle in the service, as may be attested by
their use in the play"

The open air performance of Shakes
peare's pastoral on the afternoon of the
10th inst on the grounds of Mrs. Stevens
at Castle Point. \. j., was not a complete
success according to all accounts The
actors were oVer-conscious of their unusual
surroundin Is, ana there was total lack of
briliancy in the acting. with the possible
exception of Agnes Booth, who played
Audrey as though green fields and leafy
bOughs had been the scenes of all her dra-
matte successes. The actors, as we'll as the
audience, seemed to be too much impressed
with the idea that they were out for hol-
day to bring out either the best efforts of
the players or the calm and unbiased criti-
cism of the people. In addition to these
drawbacks the rain began to pour in tor
rents just after the song when the hearer
is hidden to come hither," with the
promise that he shall see "nn enemy
but winter and rough weather" Then,
says the Philadelphia City Item, as if the
weather had felt itself challenged, down
came the rain. R0salind, Celia and Touch
stone had just come on the stage, and tried
10 90 on with their scene, but the confusion
was too great, and they stood close to q big
tree-trunk and waited for the sun to shine
again. Rosalnd, with her dOublet and hose

Shepherdess dress, aud T0uchslone, in his

the rain fell around them, till some one,
with kind heart, no doubt but no esthetic
eye, brought them waterproof eloaks and an
umbrella, and the picture was spoiled. AS
the end of the play was approached the sky
grew darker, the thunder sounded louder,
and through the last act the lightning began
to be seen. Miss Coghlan spoke the epilogue
with accomplishments of loud winds, roar
ings from the clouds and flashes of light,
and it was not five minutes after she had
finished that the rain came again in torrents.

s.The Limited NIaII,,

Is limited at the Bush-stTeet Theater to this
week. II for no other reason, it is really
worth seeing because Of its ingenious real
ism, and for the thorough way in which the
author has dissipated and destroyed the
romance and poetry Of the stage by such
practical and malter-of-fact appliances of
everyday life as the railroad, The telegraph
and a saw-h.H. Somebody once said that
by the writing of "Don Quixote" Cervantes
laughed chiYalry ont of Spain. That may
be So We offer the opinion that the Cas-
titan satirist has not done his work half so
effectively as some modern writers Tor our
stage are eTadicating a liking for high sentl-
ment and delight in the flowers Of poesy
from the mind Of the average theater-goer.
Being devoid for the most part Of fancy and
hide-bOund in Imagination, these playwrights
call realism" to their aid, and the public
are charged dollar to witness on the stage
Of the theater what can be seen Out-Of-doOrS
in practical operation.
PROHIBITION LAYOUT.
The next to call attention to his dramatic
wares az this theater will be Mr.. W. A.
MestayeT long known in this community.
He has what he calls farcical piece, The
GTab-bag," originally acted October s, 1890,
at Hudson, n. Y, aud which is synopSized
as follows: The scene is a prohibition town
in New Jersey, where Sheepshead Is run
ming a tavern, al which the weary may OBJ
tain tuTpentine and kerosene by the glass !;
but the patronage has not been remunera-
tive enough to keep up the interest on
mortgage held by Boreas Rye. The time is
Just before election, and Rye is a candidate
on the Prohibition ticket which is threatened
with defeat by the opposition of Sheepshead
and his guests at the tavern. Rye threatens
foreclosure unless Sheepshead throws his
influence to the water party, but by 10
o'clock every night in the season the money
to satisfy the mortgage is found, and
Sheepshead draws the Cancelled papers as
his pIize in the grabbing. Rye goes over to
the opposition by reason of his affection for
the inn-keeper's elderly female relative, and
the gentle passion is more or less prevalent
