Interesting Episodes in the Career OF \
Well known Leading Man.
The stage is a hard vehicle to ride to
success on" said an old actor. But the
rougher the road and the longer the jour
ney the bigger the dinner at the end Of
the route he added.
Louis Massen, the genial leading man OF
the New York Madison Square theatre,
agrees with the old actor. Mr.. Massen
has made the journey, and he is eating the
dinner now, so he IS an authority.
1t has been about nineteen years since
Masseu began the trip. At that time he was
Il years old, and with more ambition than
prospects he became a call boy in Bar
nuns museum Three years later, when
that famous old playhouse burned, the
boy was cast on his own again.
These resources were not very extensive.
Work wa what he was looking for, and
when he saw an opening, the fact that It
wa not "A stage door did not deter him
from taking advantage Of il. For the next
three years he hardly saw a theatre, he
says. but when his seventeenth birthday
came around it brought with it a longing
for the queer things OF life behind the
a call boy at Barnum's.
He joined the company Of Ada Caven-
dish, and afterward went to the Fifth Az
enue theatre, lie played big and little
parts in many plays. At different times
he appeared with Booth, jefferson, Mary
Anderson, Nine Mpdjeska Adelaide Neil
son and other famous people OF the stage.
He took out one or two companies Of his
own. Sometimes be made money rapidly,
sometimes he lost it instantaneously. lie
learned his trade thoroughly, and when he
went TO the Madison square theatre, DUR
ing the long run Of Hazel Rirke," he
knew nearly all that was to be learned OF

Close attention to business and by keep
ing a rigid curb on his generous in
stincts. This prosperous merchant en-
plOys a score of men and boys, and year
after year he has been unanimously elect
ed by his employees as ''chief bore" He is
full of sage advice. which he distributes
about the office with a lavish hand.
His favorite admoHition to every person
that is unable to escape him is, Never
lose your nerve and never lose your tenn
per" He says that that is the motto

this fussy philosopher been known to
makea Christmas or a New Years pres
ent. Great was the surprise therefore
among his clerks when on the last day
of the year he called them singly into
his private Office and impressively pre-
sented each clerk with a neatly envel-
oped box about four inches long, two
inches broad and an inch and a half
thick.
"a scarf pin, by Jover' was the men
tai ejaculation of each recipient of one
of these boxes. The pompous employer
gave with each an admonition not to
open it until after office hours. An i'm
patient group of clerks watched the Ian
guild hands of the clock as they moved
toward the figure V. Finally the hour
of release came. Meanwhile the en-
ployer had departed. More than twenty
boxes were opened hen and there with
nervous haste, and an equal number of
scrolls of paper were taken ont. perused
hastily and thrown on the floor with
scornful ordinations The Office boy
who swept up the scrolls of paper is re-
sponsible for the statement that each
piece contained the words, Never lose
your nerve and never lose your temper"
