HENRY RVING'S LEAR.
The Tenth in His Series of
Shakespearean Revivals.
sPLENDIDLY STAGED AND PLAYED

some Interesting Gossip About the Man
who Is the Foremost Actor of the Age
in Certain Line of Plays-His Chicago
Visit.
Henry Irving has just presented at the
Lyceum theater, in London, the tenth of
his magnificent Shakespearcan revivals
The play staged was "King Lear" and the
gorgeousness of the scenery is said to have
been almost indispensable. Add to this
the dramatic genius and directorial ability
Of Mr.. Irving, and the splendid achieve
ment Of Miss Terry as Cordelia, and one
who knows the trials and triumphs Of
Irving can but wonder and applaud at the
manner in which he has overcome all OBJ.
stacles and forced his way from the bottom
to the top of the ladder.
Possibly not many people are aware Of
the fact that he began his wage earning
life as a strolling actor and secured his
first engagement because his peculiar gait
and hating voice fitted him for a comic
part of minor value. But behind these
natural defects was a master mind that
would not be defeated or dominated-a re-
sistless persistence to succeed-and the re-
suit is that today the friendless and guyed

companion of princes and the chief expo

much as painting or music.
But to return to Irving and his produc-

celebrated London dramatic critic, de-
clares that the actor has come triumphant

CHAMPION BREEZE GLADSTONE.

CHAMPION BREEZE GLADSTONE.
Winner Of first prize at Brooklyn recently.l
\ liar clubs were formed in other large cities.
Now fr~m early in November till late in
n April there is succession of shows, follow
ing each other SO closely that an exhibitor
who would go to all has to travel rapidly
and with but brief respites.
These shows have had the effect of slim
ulating the interest in dog breeding, and
the gentlemen and others caring for special
breeds of dogs have formed special clubs
4 devoted to the interests of certain dogs
/ For instance there is a Mastiff club, a
\ Pointer club, a Collie club, and SO forth.
And all Of these clubs-kennel clubs and
/ special clubs-have united to form the
American Kennel club, which is kind Of
synod or parliament in dogs. This club
makes the rules for the bench shows, keeps
the records of the prizes won. and also
maintains studbook in which the pedi.
grees. date Of birth and other particulars
of all purely bred dogs eligible to be ex-
hibited In the shows are set down. This
is a work of such dimensions and impor-
lance that the central club is obliged to
maintain offices and keep a corps Of clerks
at work.
This club makes the general rules by
which dogs in the shows shall be classed,
though each local kennel club makes up
it's prize list and the special rules Then
the special clubs establish the rules by
which the dogs shall be judged. The judg-
ing is done by points, and the breeders and
owners who form these special clubs deter
mine what points are the most important
in the conformation of dog of a certain
kind. To each of these points, when per-
feet, number Is given, and as the dog is
good or bad in any point the number is
great or small.
In going along line visitor will see in
the mastiff class twenty magnificent speci-
mems of these gentle and intelligent fell
lows. He-will notice either by labels or in
the catalogue that five or six of these are
called champions" Now how, the I'M
tutored bench show visitor will ask, can
there be five or six champion mastiffs. The
title is certainly misleading. 1t really
means that these so called champions"
belong to certain high class, which is
reached by a reckoning OF a dogs winnings.
The classes in which dogs are judged are
six-the miscellaneous, the selling, the
novice. the puppy, the open and the chal-
lenge. New dogs rise from one class to
another according to their winnings and
age. The challenge class is for dogs who
have have won four first prizes in the open
classes. And when u dog has got into this
challenge class, and in it won three first
prizes. then he is entitled to be called
champion" Therefore it is sometimes
the case that on the same bench there will
be several dogs that never competed
against one another before.
The bench shows in America have done a

Dog shows of one kind and another have

SPORTING NOTES.

The Mount Morris Athletic club, recent.
ly formed in New York, will erect $500,
900 clubhouse in Harlem.
1t is said that ten graduates of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania promised the col.
lege football eleven that they would give
$4,000 each toward clubhouse for the
university's athletes if the eleven beat
Princeton. With such prize before them
it is little wonder that the Pennsylvanians
defeated the orange and black team.
1t is reported that "Old Man" Anson, OF
the Chicago club, will not respond to the
cry of "Play ballr' next season.
Emanuel Lasker, the great chess expert,
recently played twelve of the Brooklyn
Chess clubs best men simultaneously,
winning ten games and drawing two in
the remarkably short time of hour and
IS minutes.
Harold Hagen, the European champion
skater, and Joe Donoghue, the American
champion, will probably meet this winter.
Donoghue has turned professional.
Joe Cunniff, big Texan 6 feet tall, and
hitherto unheard of in pugilistic circles,
wants to fight Joe Goddard for $4,000 a

the line at one side of the field and ran at
full speed toward the line and Yale's terri
tory. At the same time five lighter men
in single file, like the others, started in a
similar manner from the other corner Of
the field. Between the two lines ran a
fake runner, who seemed to Yale to be the
man who was to get the ball. The two
lines Of men, running at high speed, finally
came together, forming wedge protecting
the real runner, who had the ball, and this
wedge crashed its way score of yards into
Yale's territory.
The flying wedge did not win the game
for Harvard, but it is said to be very con-
fusing to an opposing team, and Harvard
will continue to use it. In the freshmen
game, which was fought out to draw,
Harvard used Deland's "crisscross," which
is foremost at the start, much like the
wedge, but the two lines of men continue
on in their course and no wedge is made.
The light runners merely do their sprint
ing to confuse the enemy, while the real
runner, with the ball, is with the heavy
line. At the freshmen game Brewer, of
Harvard, turned Yale's end with this new
play and gained forty yards before he was
doomed. Deland is an expert mathema
tician and the husband of the famous nov
elist, Margaret Deland, who wrote "John
Ward, Preacher" In planning the new
plays Deland says he has only applied the
art of war to the football field, and the fly
Ing wedge is a movement Napoleon often
used to turn an enemy's flank.

The stray dogs taken by 6he rrenon
police, according to French journal, are
killed and handed over to an enterprisiDg
manufacturer, by whom the skins are
tanned by electricity. Instead of taking
seven or eight months to transform the
skins into leather, as is the case by the
ordinary system, electricity does the work
in three OF four days. The leather SO
tanned, moreover, it is asserted, is much
better than that manufactured by the Or

as He Was to Take Another.

CINcI>NATI, Sept. 29.-.Iohn Curran wa'
married in Ireland several years ago. Times
were hard and Curran could not make
enough money to support himself and fam
ill., Thinking he could do better in Amer
lea. he came across and located at Rome,
Tia. lie worked hard and kept in constant
communication with his wife. After few
years she heard that she had died.
This was a great blow to him, and he re-
solved never 10 marry again. As the years
passed he found himself growing rich. A
few months ago he went into partnership
with native Southerner, and they made
money rapidly. He became acquainted with
handsome Young lady in Rome and after
a few months it was decided that they
should wed.
About two weeks ago Curran read some
thing in a Cincinnati newspaper that came
to him wrapped around package, that
shocked him. He set up inquiries and
found that his wife was living with her sis
ter, Mrs. Harrigan, at Mt. Adams. Curran
was to be married few days after he got
the news. He came to this city and found
Mrs. Curran hale and hearty.
A happy reunion was the result and
there was much merrymaking at the Harri-
gan homestead. 4 week ago Mr.. and Mrs.
Curran left for their handsome home in the
South.
Currans business partner has fixed it up
with the young woman Curran was to mar
ry and the wedding will take place next
week.
