theater, San Francisco, where it has
just closed successful two weeks en-
gagement. All who enjoy an evening of

The bucolic reporter, when IN the
presence of an actress, always finds a
vent for his uncarbed fancy. and Inn
pressionableness, which qualities are
usually pent up by the sordid limits OF
an lC6Q QtbCTiUlnk nOW Jul OAtCI PItb-
ing and genial fellow-citizen, Mr.. Bung-
starter. has painted his front gate. Mr..
Bungstarter always has the best inter-
ests OF Boomtown at heart, and sets an
example of energy which all should fol-
low. His gate is painted lovely green,
with blue trimmings"
A reporter with divine affiatus in
his inside pocket is as a rule dispirited
by the want of opportunity offered by
the average news item but when he
meets real actress, who smiles on him,
and perhaps breaks her sentence by
puffs from cigarette, then the reporter
feels himself journalist, he finds him
self in the atmosphere of that delight
full Bohemia which metropolitan news
paper men are supposed to inherit, but
but which principally exists in the
imaginations of outsiders.
A young man on the Wichita Eagle
recently was introduced to Maud
Granger. What he says is inimitable
and worthy of reproduction. 1t is as
follows:
''The Eagle reporter, in company with
Manager Ogston, called on the lustrous
eyed young lady at her dressing room
and found her ready for the stage,
dressed in robe that the proud queen
of France, in the palmy days OF Napo-
leon the third, might we'll envy.
Upon the reporters entrance a
hand as white as snow, as soft as
down and as shapely as that OF Gre
clan goddess, was extended to him. A
pair of eyes as lustrous as the most brill
liant pair of stars in the armament IL
lumed the surroundings, and the honeyed
words of welcome rendered him would
swell the head of an emperor until
it would burst his crown. Her low
necked dress revealed one of the most
beautiful necks that ever left the
feminine mould, and those arms-well,
they were simply triumph of nature.
The dressing room was fitted with finest
array of costly dresses the reporter ever
saw and they were not sham dresses
either. They were made of the finest
textures imaginable and the material
for all of them was the product of the
cluster which che wore on her neck was
almost as large as walnut and shone
with brightness that exceeded that OF
any star in the heavens.'
Maud is billed Ito appear at Harry
Wyatt's theater for three nights, begin
ming next Thursday. 1t is to be hoped
that she will wear that low necked
drese, neck and the most beautiful that
sever left the feminine mould" what
ever that may be.

Theodore Bromley, the manager Of
Minnie Gale, writes to the HERALD most
enthusiastic accounts of the progress OF
his star. This is what managers are
for, but in Miss Gales case there is
probably considerable basis for his en-
thusiasm; when she finds out that she
ia not genius but very talented, con-
scientious actress, she will go back to
some good company and play better
than ever. A little of the bitterness OF
disappointed ambition is the very best
of discipline for those who are in earnest
in any branch Of art.
