according to the New York Times, was
teaching her little daughter, seven years
old, to spell.
''T-o-z-e," answered the child.

But it sounds like t-o-z-e."

Then in order to enforce this PROPOSE

MARRIED MANS ROMANCE

What Came of TryinS to Protect Poor
and Pretty Girl.
'1'u tell you a story as strange as it
is true, ii you will not use my name,"
said a guest of the Southern, as he led
a reporter into his apartments and care
fully closed the door, says the Globe
Democrat. Some years ago lived in
a southern city-it does not matter what
one. It was my good fortune to render
valuable assistance to beautiful 1tal-
ian girl who had, for satisfactory rea-
sons, run away from her home in New
Orleans.
''She repaid my kindness by falling
in love with me after the most approved
manner of heroines. Her relatives told
me that if I did not send her back home
I was liable to find myself in badly
disfigured state some stormy night, and
on this gentle hint acted. Some time
afterward her mother wrote me that
the girl had destroyed herself. and adj
ded the cheerful news that her broth
ers blamed me for the rash deed and
would see me later.

fuge in a suicides grave from the in
famous treatment Of her relatives rath.
er than from the pangs of pining love,
but the tragedy moved me strangely
and nearly dethroned my reason. While
she was with me two attempts were
made upon my life for no other crime
than saving a young girl from the paths
of infamy. Two of these interesting
would-be asSaSsins were rounded VI
by the mob that stormed the parish
prison, and I breathed easier, but no

why don't you Try comedy?" sht
said.
Me" he replied, pushing his fingers
through his long hair and gazing fiXedlS
at the pale little woman beside him
''Ah! Ha. 'TwouId never do, my
DEAR" and the few spectators who
overheard this remark agreed with him
for it was plainly not. his forte.
He was an actor. His every move
ment indicated this; but one of the old
school. He had been playing serious
parts so long that the assumed eX
preston Of the stage remained with him
on the street and probably did not de-
part from him even in his sleep.
He play comedy? Never, says the
Denver Times. 1t would be impossible
and so the pair passed out of sight
! Everybody on 10th street that after.
. noon saw them. They were not an ordi-
nary couple, and had those who glanced
at them known their history they would
| probably have remembered some Of the
incidents of their life.
| The man in his youthful days gave
promise Of becoming a great actor, but
he developed certain eccentricities that
always kept him in the lower ranks of
the profession. His wife, who was a
celebrated ballot dancer in her day,
married him when both were young,
and has been good and faithful wife
to him through all his troubles. In fact,
but for the money she earned he would
probably have starved.
He is still an eccentric man, and his
appearance in comedy would be treat
I for the gallery gods. For years he has
been the first walking gentleman in
various companies. Once he appeared
in comedy, and once only.
A manager who had known him in
his early days resolved to give him a
chance. He was cast for the part Of a
jolly old man who was very fond of
the girls, in skit which was brought
out in an eastern city many years ago.
He made decided hit at the rehear-
sails, but on the opening night he was so
anxious to outshine the others that in
SIedu VI dClIIS Tie JONy Olu HAL lie dCl-
ed a serious, disagreeable old fellow.
and endeavored to make the play ira
gedy instead of a farce, so he lost his
place. and ever after had to content
himself with the parts of walking gentle
man and general utility man.
This was his great fault; he also had
a bad habit Of endeavoring to rival the
star. There are many funny stories
told of this man. He always dresses
like the picture Of an actor and poses on
every opportunity. The front OF a thea
ter is his principal lounging place. He
is positively delighted if any one looks
at him, and to be pointed out as an actor
makes him happy for an hour.
He carries in his pocket a clipping
from little country paper in New York
state which contains the only favorable
newspaper notice he ever received.
This is exhibited on the slightest provo
cation, with the greatest pride.
How does the man live?
His wife supports him most OF the
time, and occasionally he gets week
engagement.
