people, who were having a holiday with
dramatic entertainment under big
shed temporarily erected in front Of
the temple. The angry robbers applied
torches to this shed, and the people in
panic rushed into the temple for refuge.
Inc main entrance of the temple, which
was of wood, caught fire from the heat
or the burning shed, and over 400 men,
women and children were either burn.
ed, smothered or trampled under feet.

he inquired as to his friends verdict
At length he put the solemn question
WAS the piece adapted for the Stage?'
The comedian promised to let hin
know in day or two. Three NOR,
weeks went by. Then again the author
importuned the actor, and begged him
not to defer his hopes any longer.
"Well, then" said the actor, "the fact
is your play is decidedly clever. may say
particularly clever, but it is not quite the
thing for the stage. The scenes, the
acting, the development Of the plot, the

stage before it could be possibly pro.

they turn will never be changed. If
