And here one of Sothern's practical
Jokes obtrudes Itself, and we must give
it room. During his engagement in
London Money had been performed
with q phenomenal cast on the occa-
sion of some benefit. Charles Mathews
appeared as Capt. Dudley Smooth, E.
A. Sothern az Sir Frederick Blount,
John Ryder as the Old Member, and
the other characters were assigned to
persons OF equal prominence In the pro-
fession. The part of the Old Member
appears only in the club scene. He
calls loudly every now and then for a
waiter to bring him the snuff-box, but
as other members are making the
same demand at the same time, NE
waiter always passes him by, AND he
does not get the snuff-bo until Ii is
empty, which fact he emphasizes by
