New strost Car Ralos,

Two Of the new rules OF the street car
company are anything but pleasing to
the men. Under one OF these rules the
mon give up the money collected at the
end OF each trip. They say that it is
very inconvcrient to do SO, and to make
tho time prescribed. According to the
other rule, the men must pay their
fares when riding on the street cars.
The only time they may ride free Is
when returning from or going to work.
At the meeting Of the union Saturday
night these rules will be discussed.

others. No one has vet fathomed the
reasons which Drew had for making
contract to star next season with Charles
fronman, but, nevertheless, his break
with Daily is announced, and the old COM
Pany loses another one of Its most bril-
lant members.
But it is not safe to say that Drew left
on account of Rehan's jealousy, because I
understand that Rehan is very friendly
with Drew, and that she intends to Join
MIN In society drama under Frohmau's
management next August. This is rather
an open secret In theatrical circles, be-
- As to the present row, it is Just this:
Miss Rehan could have played the same
part that Mrs. John Wood played to great
advantage, but she scorned to take it, She
wanted to play the part of the cabinet
minister's young daughter of Is years, who
plays marbles and frolics about the stage
Ike kitten. But there is certain little
MISS Prince-that's her name 1 believe
whom Daily considers very clever Ger
talniy she Is possessed of extreme beauty,
ana mas certain amount of talent When
MISS Rehan went down to look on at the
nrst rehearsal l understand there was a
tremendous row. She didn't seem to fancy
the prominence of Miss Prince half as
much as Daily did. So suppose that tele-
gram In this mornings papers may be per-
fectly correct.
by the way, the rules that DAILY hangs
up In his theater are 'curios' In each

Rehan in his characteristic way. Georgia
Drew Barrymore, who is a sister of John
Drew and who was once a member of
Days company, calls to mind that the
fall of Fanny Davenport and the rise Of
Ada Rehan came about in the same way.
Fanny Davenport was too much of a hit
to suit Daily and he put leading part into
Ada Rehan's hands. OF course this was
sufficient to make Miss Davenport throw
up her engagement and go out starring.
Twenty-one or two years ago Augustin
DAILY was dramatic critic of the New York
Times, which position he had gained in an
endeavor to write plays. Henry J. Raw
mond, the editor ofthat journal, protected
him. on account, some say, of the good
word that Rose Eytinge had said in his
favor. One morning Raymond left Miss
Eytinge's residence, after theatrical BAN
quet. and was found lying dead from heart
disease on the threshold of his Fifth
avenue mansion.
Directly afterward Daily plunged into the
play business as a full-hedged manager.
His first success was with Fanny Daven-
port in translated play called "Pique."
which appeared at the old Fifth avenue
theater in New York. From the first Daily
was business man before anything else.
He insisted on the most absolute discipline
and watched his accounts with the direst
care. Every contract he made was sub

McCaull, the Opera Manager, Insane.

John A. McCaull was a man whose
mental and physical virility indicated that
he would be the last 10 succumb to ANY,
thing like paresis. He was burly and
healthful in figure and bold and enterprise
ing in mind. The fibre of his being was
not particularly fine. but his brusnueness
was mellowed by an eminently charitable
disposition and = fidelity in friendliness
and hatred that was admirable. McCaull
had few vices that men knew of. He was
in no sense adrunkard, although he would
occasionally take a glass of wine. He
smoked but little if at all, and so far as I
know he never gambled. He attended
strictly 10 his business, took his fun quota
OF sleep and was generally careful of his
method Of living. And yet one day he was
stricked down with paralysis and speedily
psretic. lie had ali the physical
symptoms of paresis, and in addition
to being unable 10 think commercially
or speak intelligently, he had a habit
OF falling asleep when ever he sat
in one position tor even few minutes
There were moments, however, when he
could speak and think vaguely, and these
were to his friends probably the most
heartrending. | remember one day whea

man, who had been noted for his strength
of character his firm will and his tenacity
of purpose, crying out in fearful Joy be-
cause he had been able to make his voice
carry twenty races. As an evidence Of
McCaull's kindness to his friends recall
that once having learned that newspaper
reporter whom he liked was in financial
straits ne passed him in the lobby of
Wallack's theater one night and thrust
500 bill into his hand without saying
word. Six months afterward the reporter
returned the money in the same manner,
and have reason to believe that no word
ever passed between the two men relative
to the transaction. In McCauil's case the
wife who had been neglected in the hour
of prosperity came to her husbands side
when paralysis and paresis had doomed
him to a living death, and now she cares
for him and sees to his wants, although OF
all the money that McCaull made she has
