MADE HIS DEBUT.
And In His Part Was HowIins Success
For Gne Night Only.

And In His Part YVES HowIins Success
For One Night Only.
In ono of the leading New York
theatrical stock companies there is q
young man. the son of rich but honest
parents. who is liable to end his
career as a star OF much magnitude.
For months previous to his first en-
gagement he pleaded with his purse
proud pa for permission to go upon
the stage and was refused with de-
pressing regularity. Finally, repeated
onslaught having weakened the paren-
tai resolve, he cut off his offspring's
allowance. gave him a letter to
all theatrical managers concerned,
informing them that the young man
had his family's permission to act out
On any stage and babe him go forth
and hustle.
The young man went straight to
the Office of a well known manage,
argued him into engaging him at $15
PEI week. and located himself at
profess. onal boarding house.
Here he learned the patter of the
shop. became acquainted with a
number of peroxide of hydgogened
soubrettes, and met several callow
/ Thespians who would insist upon ad-
dressing him as me boy"
For six months he reported at the
stage door night after night at =!
o'clock, and on Friday received pay
ment for the same. At last the man
ager sent for him
Pm going to use you in the next
piece. he said.
Thank you. sir " answered the
young man with throb OF expect
ancy.
You're to do the English turnkey
and carry q tray OF glasses in one of
the scenes"
The young man felt like one who
had been suddenly sand-bagged. II
can do that to the life sir" he pluck
ily replied, the governor has had
two of those fellows about the house
for years and l know their ways to
q T."
The manager. who had rather ex-
pected an explosion of wounded pride
ended the interview and the young
man went home deeply Respondent.
The night of the opening of the n ew
play arrived. The young man, re-
splendent in livery, powdered hair
and padded calves glanced upward
from the wings just before making
his entrance and discovered his par
ents with three Of their absolutely
SWEETEST friends seated in an upper
box. In a vague way they had learned
that their sou was to make his debut
that evening and had come to witness
it. They scanned the programme
vainly for his name, and aimed their
opera glasses at each new character
in the hope Of discovering him.
The moment came and the prodigal
made his first entrance.
When, after having made his round
with the glasses he cast furtive
glance at the box, he encountered five
stony and reproachful stares.
You are the best funky l ever
saw, said the manager after the per-
formaHce. but if you want to be
good actor you must get over the
habit Of looking into the boxes"
Ten minutes later he found a note
at the stage-door which assured him
that all would be forgiven if he would
abandon the business and return
home. says the New York Advertiser
But the memory of the managers
words came to the prodigaL and the
slaughter of certain fatted calf at
Fifth avenue palace was postponed
indefinitely.

How Did the Dog Know That His Mas
ter Was in Danger:
Now how do you account for thisp
the colonel asked of the New York
Sun man. IF animals in their moods
and impulses are prompted merely by
instinct how do you account for this?
1t is the story of RUDE Lessing's dog
Gray. Rube is dead now and SO is the
dog but Rube would have been dead
long before except for the dog.
'Rube Leasing was man well known
in his day. He was lumberman and
hunter, and lived alone for years in a
cabin in the. woods. three miles from
the nearest Sinuamahoning settlement
Not alone. either; Tor his dog lived
with him. Rube's dog was a cross
between New soundland and a shep-
herd dog He was not a hunter, but
simply a companion to Rube. 4 more
intelligent animal | never saw, and
kind and atfectionate. One fall | made
Rube's cabin my hea Quarters while |
was en- Dying deer hunt. Running
out Of certain supplies RUDE walked
into the nearest settlement one ter
noon to renew them 1t was rough,
stormy day and toward evening Rube
had not returned, | noticed that his
dog. which always remained at home
when his master went to town. became
uneasy and frequently trotted to the
closed door and Whined in a peculiar
manner. He had done this several
times, and suddenly sprang up, ut

paved and scratched at the door.
i knew that something out o. the
ordinary al ed the DOG. and | opened
the door. An Old bark ROAD led by
the cabin nearly two miles out to the
main road. The dog started at the
top Of his speed down the road, and
was soon lost to sight in the darkness

gone more than a mile when | heard
the dogs bowls in the distance He
had stopped at something and was
calling piteOusly. | hurried on and
about a hundred yards this side Of the

dog stood among its branches bowling.
The tree lay straight across the road.

branches of the tree. He was uncon-
sciOus. Only short distance away,

summoned the lumberman back with
me. We chopped RUDE out carried
him TO the lumberman's house and
sent to the settlement for the doctor.
RUDE was hurt so badly that when
the doctor came he said it was slim
chance if he lied, and that if he had
lain few minutes longer without aid
he would have been dead. Rube got
well but he was housed up two
months
What | want to know is how did
that dog know that his master, nearly
two miles away. had been overtaken
by disaster? More than that. by what
strange prescience had the dog been
aware that disaster threatened his
master before the latter had reached
the spot where it was to occur? For
the dogs uneasiness previous to his
final expression of alarm and distress
when the catastrophe had fallen made
1t evident that he knew his master
was in danger. How can this be ex-
planned by the theory of animal in
stinct?'

1t was in 1868, after a battle, and
the streets of Madrid were filed with
angry crowds, bent on destroying
every thing and every body. Sudden
ly an unknown man, tall and dark
and strong, appeared at the city hall
Give mo band of musicians " he
said and before nightfall | shall
control all Madrid "
He must have been a man of rare
personality to have been able to per-
suade the authorities at all in that
dark hour to give him anything of
the kind but be did.
Going out with the musicians. he
wandered through The town. While
they played he sang-folk songs Or
some national air. When these bored
the people he mounted old boxes and
told funny stories and by and by the
people forgot to be angry. followed
their ncw leader wherever he went
laughing over his stories and songs
BY nightfali peace rcigned In the
city and the mob broke up and went

years old when no did this clever

ROBBERS IN THE HOUSE
Different Ways Women Have Of Dealing
With Them.


Il had most narrowing adventure
the other night said young Wash.
ington matron to writer for the Star
OF that city. My usband was away
and at about three o'clock in the
| morning | was walked up by the loud
ringing OF the burglar alarm in my
bedroom OF course was very much
frightened but | went TO the drawer
In which the family pistol is kept
ready loaded for an emergency, which
one never expects to occur. The two
children | had with me, and they were
both fast asleep in their little cribs.
undisturbed by the racket had
turned up the light and assuming a
desperate courage which | feared
might suddenly evanesce. | threw
open the door into the entry. Then |
stood on the threshold, revolver in
hand, and awaited developments
Before taking this bold step how
ever | rang the electric bells for the
servants, hoping that they might be
aroused. For two or three minutes
there was no further sound and then
/ heard step coming up the stairs
from below. Instead OF rum ng back,
i slamming the door and screaming out
OF the window for help, as | believe
most women would have done IN my
place. | stood my ground and held my
pistol pointed toward the head Of the
stairway The step came slowly up
and at length shadowy figure emerged
On the landing. Just as l was on the
| point OF firing | saw that it was a
female figure.
Please, ma'am. don't shoot!' cried
voice which to my infinite relief ]
recognized as that Of the cook.
Il lowered my pistol. To be more
accurate, [ dropped it. [ am sur
prised that it did not explode.
Marie, what on earth have you
been about?' | asked. with some in
dignation.
Her explanation was that mistak-
ing the time. she had got up two hours
IN advance of her usual hour. Going
down stairs to light the fire she had
set of the burglar alarm.
Il heard your bell, ma am, she
added. and SO | walked up to find out
what you wanted
Nevertheless, though it was not
a real Irglar. [ think that | behaved
with extraordinary courage and pres
ence of mind The only woman 1
ever knew Of who did better on such
an occasion was friend of mine in
Philadelphia Hearing robbers NOV
ing about the house below, she quietly
dragged her basket Of silver which
she kept in her bedroom at night to
the well of the stairway and upset it
The spoons and forks and precious
vessels Of all sorts fell with tremen-
dous crash to the floor of the low er
hall and frightened the burglars so
badly that they ran away leavin g
the booty they had already collec ted
| behind them.
That reminds me of lady of my
acquaintance to whom a trained nurse
had been recommended She asked a
friend of hers, who had employed the
same woman, if the latter was a safe
person to leave in charge OF the house
for brief period.
Entirely So replied the friend.
If only you will make sure first to
lock up very carefully the silver the
jewelry and the wine Otherwise she
will probably get away with them

The Fisheries of lake Superior.

At little Port Arthur alone the fig
ures Of the fishery industry for the
market are astonishing. In 1888 the
fishermen there caught 800. 900 pounds
of whitefsh. 800. 900 pounds of lake
trout As, 900 pounds of sturgeon, 90. :
900 pounds of pickerel and 80 900
pounds of other fish. or more than a
million pounds in all They did this
with an investment Of So, 800 in boats
and $40, 900 in gill and pound nets
This yield nearly all went to Chica-
go packing company and it is in the
main Chicago and Cleveland capital
that is controlling the lakes fisheries.
The whitefsh is in the opinion of
most gourmets, the most delicious fish
known to Americans. The lake trout
are mere food | am told that they
are rather related to the char than to
the salmon. They are peculiar to our
inland waters. They average five to
ten pounds in weight and yet grow to
weigh 1870 pounds; but whatever their
weight be- it is a mere pressure of
hard. dry flesh calculated only to APP
pease hunger. Harper Magazine.
