the stage for good and will benceforth devote
her life to her husband and such pleasures
as she may SEQ fit to enjoy. 1t is no new
freak on her part, this giving up the stage.
For several years before her marriage she
had considered the question seriously, and
finally when she met the man of her choice
and became Mrs. Navarro she determined
to leave the boards and settle down com
fortably into domestic life. She has al
ready given away to favored friends on and
on the stage her costumes and play books,
the accumulation of years of work and
representing a significant sum of money.
Just how she will employ her time is not
yet settled. She is very fond of reading,
painting, music and literature. and it is
quite likely that she will do a little work in
all of these departments. At present she is
far from the madding crowd of London,
living with her husband and her mother
and sister at Tunbridgs Wells, one of the
loveliest garden spots in England. | asked
Mrs. Navarro why it WAS she had selected
IunbrldGe Wells as Il place of residence,
and she replied that it was simply because
of the healthiness of the town, the quiet
ness that comes to one outside of q big city
and the nearness to London, in case she
should care to make a journey there at
any time.
Tunbridge we'll is only thirty miles from
London and may be reached in IN hour.
Nothing can exceed the beauty of the sur
rounding country during the spring when
the foliage in its tender green and wild
flowers are in their primo. Nestled as it
were in a hollow, it is sheltered by tho
neighboring ciradiacent downs, but being
about 400 feet above the sea level the air is
bgacing and exhilarating. Many famous
people have lived there, DR.. Johnson. Col

weeks ago she had been requested by the
poet to take part in a little play that he has
finished. This request she was compelled
to decline. Mr.. Gladstone, William Black,
honored Mrs. Navarro with their friend
ship, and she should be extremely proud of
it too.

only wish for every American girl who is
ambitious to become an actress that she
may receive the same generous treatment
that | have and there was a touch of par
donable pride as she added, "and be as

"Stage life" she went on, "is hard work.

Mrs. Navarro and her husband occupy
a pleasant house atNo. 5 Sydney place, with
wisteria running all over it, and the garden
patch in the front poisoning with hardy
English flowers.
M. Navarro met me at the door. The
husband of Mary Anderson is a little below
medium height, short and stocky, but his
shoulders are broad and tell plainly that in
his day he WAS Il good hand at an oar or on
the football field. His face is quite round
and there is a glow OF perfect health on his
checks. He has swapping black eyes, a per-
feet nose, splendid white teeth, a firm
mouth, and hair as black as a ravens wing.
His mouStache is rather heavy n is
brushed out to a point. The pictures we
saw of him in America were ones taken
years ago when he wore an imperial. His
chin is now clean shaved, and he does not
look at all unlike any one of a dozen or so
well-dressed, prosperous club men who may
be seen in New York during an afternoon.
His clothing. too, is thoroughly American,
and tho mans general air and accent of the
/ voice all betoken one, who though he has
lived abroad for many years still finds his
home under the stars and stripes. He gave
me a cordial greeting, and soon we were
seated before a CRATE fire in an upsta airs
room rolling cigarettes, and talking about
America ana RnerlcanS, ana particularly
about Mrs. Navarro. We had not thus
been seated long before there was a step in
the hall and in moment a tall, we'll formed
woman with rosy checks and flashing eyes
stood before me. A big black chip hat Gov
cred her head and a loose laco mantle was
thrown over her shoulders. These she
quickly threw off, and in a moment l recog-
nized Mary Anderson. If those who have
circulated SO many silly reports about her
loss of health could have seen her they
would have changed their minds. She is
what racing men would term Tin the pink

evidence of a break down, and as for the
rumor that she had lost her reason, il
seemed too absurd to consider. for she
talked most Interestingly about America
and Americans, and l fonnd her to be I'M

untrue.
"Yes, l have retired from the stage; moi
because l am not just as fond as ever of my
art, but because | was weary. as ono would
naturally be of fourteen years of continuous
labor. l shall never act again"
AS she said this she paused for a moment
and gazed earnestly into the fire while
perhaps, her thoughts wandered to othe
days and other scenes. But there was Nc

them On this subject.
The conversation drifted into other chan
nels and Mrs. Navarro laughed and cha'ted
in a girlish way about American experience,
made inquiries after friends and desired III e
to thank everybody in America for their
many kindnesses to her. She has been very
fortunate in making friendships in Eng
land. There is no one in this tight little
island that esteems her more highly than
Lord Tennyson, unless perhaps it might be
Mr.. Gladstone. Both of these distinguished
gentlemen have given her man evidences
of their friendship. particularly Lord Ten
nyson. She has been his guest on many oc-
c%asions, and the laureate and the actress
are upon the most congenial terms.
"a splendid man is Lord Tennyson," said
Mrs. Navarro, and her eyes rested upon q
little mantle shelf where there was a new
photograph of the poet with his autograph
received only a few days before. She talked
most interestingly of the home life of the
Tennysons and remarked that only a few

sadness. 1t was the firm determination of
one who has performed we'll her duty and

And this determinations she went on,

London to see some new production at the
theater, for Mrs. Navarro has not
lost her interest in the stage to the extent
that she cannot enjoy a good play.
Sometimes she comes down to London for
dinner, but not often. If she accepted all
the invitations she received she would dine
six nights a week from her own home. Her
life just now is one long restful holiday.

W.
Pete Lohman, Los Angeles ball tos-
ser, is covering himselfwi glory in the
northern citrus belt. The following
graphic account of last Thursdays game,
in which Lohman played the leading
part, is taken from the San Francisco
Examiner:
The one decision to which McCloskey
objected was the last one made in the
game. 1t was a close one and happened
at the plate. The Coloners had played
their half of the ninth, and with two
hands out and a Senator (Spies) on first,
the batsman hit out long shot to left
field
The score was then Oakland 2, Sacra-
mento l.
cushions the instant the ball was hit.
McQuaid and Long were also in the
race. They both started toward the
fence with the ball. The high wind
kept the ball up and carried it on and
out toward the carriage drive fence.
When it came down McQuaid was a.
most under it. He got both hands on
the ball, but it bounded out like piece
of cork.
A great shout went up from those
nine Sacramento players, in which most
OF the crowd joined.
Spies had been streaking it around
the bases at ten-second pace.
Long, who was right behind McQuaid,
picked the ball up and lined it back to
Phillips. The short-stop passed it to
.O'Neill, and O'Neill, like flash, sent it
humming to Lohman, who stood braced
at the plate.
Spies was almost at the finish when
he lunged forward head first at the
plate.
There was cloud of dust; Lohman
and Spies seemed in tangle. Sheridan
and McCloskey were standing over
them.
"You're outl" shouted the king of
the field.
Spies had lost the race by head, and
with it the game for Sacramento. But
he had made a great effort, and was
cheered when he stood up and brushed
the dust from his uniform.
Then McCloskey kicked"
THAT man isn't out, Mr.. Umpire"
he shouted at Sheridan.
Sheridan only smiled. He's used to
that sort of talk. He umpired one
season in the brotherhood.
1t was close call, though, as close
and exciting an ending as the whole
game was from start to finish.
