dropping, romantic mustache, which dis

Langtry was aghast and the young man
choked, scarcely realizing what had han

side bore its hirsute honors thick upon it.
At last he came to himself and spluttered
the hair out of his mouth amid the noIita
but vociferous laughter of the audience.
He grabbed the other side, put it in his
pocket, and played the rest of the part as
a smooth-faced masher of the latest type.
However, when the public recovered it's
serenity, it received the play with much
favor, and Mrs. Langtry may be congratu-
lated on her excellent performance.
