leading man OF Augustine Days COM

Drew finished his first stellar season
last May with net profit OF over $780,

Outside of remarkable stage expert

capital actor out of any man of intelli-

Drew'S hoYhood was not spent around

BY this he acquired a thorough educa-

high class of work with which he has
been identified than if his early youth

Mrs. john Drew, was the manager of
the Arch Street theater, Philadelphia,

THE PANICKY MAN.

Whenever there's trouble In this thing or

No matter how distantthe place,
When somebody says that finances are fat
Or that war signs are easy to trace.
The average person would stick to his task
still doing the best that he can
To keep things as well as it's reason to
ask
But along comes the panicky man.
With significant looks and a voice that is
low
He hints at disheartening things
His You migbtn't have thought it. but now,
don't you know
In mournfullest minor he SINGS
Though full of good cheer and contentment
at morn
Your task for the day you began,
You'll presently almost regret you were
Fer along comes the panicky man.
Shall people be led by the raven whose note
Is the moaning of idle despair2
Shall mere puny Terror take Thrift by the
throat
And Courage her mission forbear?
Not SO; for the public is wiser today;
1t has hit on different plan;
For It's we'll understood that the sensible
way
Is to sit on the panicky man.

Senator Sherman came out a little
twisted. His Romanesque countenance,
however, may have given the camera a
step in that direction which could not
be avoided.

that the buildings will probably not

JOHN DREW'S POSITION IN THE GAL
AXY CT DRAMATIC STARS.
EARLY LIFE AND EDUCATION.

Coming From Histrionic Family,
He Has Won a Place as the
First Actor in His Line in
America-His Modes of study
and Life-A Devoted Wife and
Interesting Daughter.
The slowest and most expensive prac-
tice as general rule known to the
business end of the theatrical profes-
sion, is that of establishing a star upon
money-making basis. Usually the
financial reward for the work aud out
lay OF putting star actor upon re
muneratiye pedestal comes after ira
versing a road of stones and thorns and
set-backs which try the patience and
courage fully as much as the pocket
book. 1t is an undertaking which calls
for herculean effort. and few managers
are willing to accept its responsibilities
and are contented to wait for the tardy
financial returns. 1t is not always that
an actor who has been the recognized
head of splendid stock company
can become an independent satellite,
carrying with him the same number of
theater-goerS which applauded him in
his previous environments The
theater-going public is as conservative
IN certain lines as the business public,
and it usually hangs back before be
slowing its approval and patronage upon

Drew occupies the best social position
OF any actor in America position
similar to that enjoyed by Henry Irving
in London-the doors of the best houses
in New York are open to him. He bears
all of his honors modestiv. and his
stellar success has had no unhealthy
influence. Mr.. Drew is married man.
and is the father of very interesting
girl who is now going to school in Phila-
delphia. Mrs. Drew usually accom-
panes her husband on his travels. The
family home is hyphenated affair, the
me being divided between two estab-
shments, one in New York, the other
in philadelphia.

Owing to its Inability to raise 49, so, al
anarchist organ in New York has sus-

so much due to the stringency in the
money market as it is to the small de-

shapes their countenances.
For instance, Col. Fellows jovial face
was snapped at his happiest mood.
Judging from the seraphic expression
which lowered between his eyebrows
and his chin, one would think that the
colonel held four aces and had just met
an old Southern war friend.
The developing, however, simply
tended to broaden this and make the
colonel look as though he were all un-
