An Affecting Scene Of n Tragedy Broken
Up by the Principal Character.

An Affecting Scene Of Tragedy Broken
Up by the Principal Character.
Many amusing incidents are recorded
of the laughable blunders caused by
doubling parts. Among them is story
Of George Powell. an old English actor,
who was among the great men OF the
stage in 1700. The play was Rowe's
Fair Penitent," in which the naughty,
gallant, gay LothariS - slain at the close
of the fourth act, but his corpse figures
prominently in the concluding scene.
The stage directions provide for q room
hung with black, with Lothario's body
upon bier standing on one side OF the
stage, ON the other side table with a
skull, book and lamp. Calista is discov-
cred on couch in the back. In this, as
in similar cases, it was clearly unneces-
sary for the iinpersonator of the lively
Lothario of the fourth act to represent
his dead body in the fifth. It was usual,
therefore, to allow the actors dresser to
perform this delightful duty. Now, Mr..
Powell's dresser was rather timid
young man by the name of Warren, and
on the occasion recorded was lying on
the bier waiting for the curtain to 60
down on the fifth act.
Powell, forgetful that his attendant
was employed in impersonating the
corpse of Lothario, was impatient to be
gone and called loudly for his dresser.
He was very passionate man and when
enraged quite violent. He opened his
door and called for Warren and threat
ened him with the severest of punish
ments If he did not immediately come to
his assistance
The unhappy dresser could not help
overhearing his raging master, yet for
some time his fears were surmounted by
his sense of dramatic propriety. He
tremblingly longed for the fall of the
curtain Powell threatened to break
every bone in his skin. which threat he.
in his dresser's opinion, was q sHan quite
likely to carry out. The situation finally
became unbearable. and.e with cry
Here | am. master" Warren sprang up
clothed in the sable draperies which were
fastened to the handle of his bier.
The house roared with surprise and
laughter as the dead Lothario, encum..
bered with his cEarnel house trappings
fed from the stage. The play. of course.
ended abruptly. and for once the somber
tragedy of the Fair Penitent" had
mirthful conclusion. New York Herald

A Famous rlre Rescue.


In the forenoon of Jan. 81. 1882, the
old building ut Park row and Beelman
street caught fire. The 6-story building
had only one stairway and was filed
with people. The building being old
and dry, the flame spread rapidly. and
many people found terrible death
just as it seemed that no human being
could escape death three men were seen
in an upper window. The fremen
quickly brought ladders, but the longest
reached only half the distance. In the
crowd a colored bootblack, Charles
Wright, saw that fastened to the roof of
the building, just above the window
where the men were, was a telegraph
wire, and that this wire ran across the
street to the top of a telegraph pole in
City Hall park.
He saw that'if the wire was cut in the
park it would fall right across the win.
dow, SO that the men could descend by
it. In an instant he seized a fireman's
wrench that lay near by, ran across the
street and began to climb the tall, smooth
telegraph pole. 1t was not easy in the
wind and> snow, but by hard climbing
Wright soon reached the crossbars.
Quickly he twisted the wire rope of.
Down it fell, right across the windowi
The crowd shouted for joy as one after
another the three men came down in
safety. For moment only the boy was
forgotten. 1t was not long before every
one had heard of Charles Wright, the
boy who saved three lives.-Cor. New
