Pathetic Bnrnt-Cork Incident.


While the Cleveland Minstrels were
playing in Norwich, Conn.,, Wednesday
last, an incident occurred which shows
how those who apparently carry the
llghteSt heart in their efforts TO amuse
often force their gayety through sheer
will power.
1t will be remembered that during the
first part of the entertainment John
Queen and Barney Pagan are intro
duced and take their places on the end.
On the night in question Mr.. Pagan was
standing in the wings made up and
ready to go on. The orchestra was be-
ginning the music that was his cue
when messenger boy handed him a
telegram. Mr.. Pagan tore open the
yellow envelope and read:
Father is dead. Come home at once"
For an instant Mr.. Pagan put his
hand to his eyes, then, the music hay-
ing finished, he crumpled the bit of i'll
omened paper in his hand, shut his
teeth, and went on. Strangely enough,
the first lines put TO him by the interloc-
utor read as follows:
We'll, Barney, now is your father?"
He's gone"
"Gone? Do you mean that hs is
dead?"
Yes, he's dead.''
well, he led an upright life."
Yes, and he died upright. He was

Those in the wings who were aware
or the circumstances watched Mir.

could detect were the hard lines in mis-
face aDd set jaw, which showed even
through his makeup. All through the
scene he carried out his part. brayeIy.
