olscomFoRTs OF ACTING.

Lack of Accommodations In the Green
 room and Behind the Scenes
 The janitor has an important bearing on the actor's condition, which finds its expression is his playing and possibly on his nervous organization He SUD- plies the house and in most cases fur nishes quarters for the actors such as no self respecting slave owner would in the old days have condemned a slave to occupy.
 For the public nothing is too good. For the actor, on the other hand, any thing is good enough. Instead of silken draperies, he finds only O tattered cur tain a. the window, if indeed he find Q curtain at all, or even a window which 1t might cover. Instead of soft, comfortable chairs, one wooden chair none too clean, or chair minus back. will be the only seat, and not infre- quently, if he wishes to sit down, he must do so on his trunk. Instead of delicately tinted walls, he will find dirty walls which have not been treated even to a coat of whitewash for years. While in the auditorium n soft carpet covers the floor, in the actors room q carpet rarely exists, or, if by chance there be
 
 something which once was n carpet, it is so dirty that it would be better away.
 The washing appliances of the actors room, if they are found at all, usually consist of small basin with a tap of running water. Most people would ex- pect that, as the winter is tho theatrical season and the paints used by the ac- tors are made with grease. hot water would be at hand. But this is rarely the case, and i'll many instances running water in the dressing rooms is unknown It is not uncommon for actors to refrain from using the basins, preferring to re- move the makeup" as well as possible with vaseline and to wait until the hotel is reached to complete this portion of tho toilet. Tin basins and buckets are not the worst that have seen lon the road, l." for once the water was in dirty, battered, old lard tins, and basins had to be bought by our manager.

A Balloon Explosion.

''One of my balloons gave me a scare once," remarked Mir. Carl F. Myers. the aerunaut, but it wasn't because I was in it It was in June of 1891, when I was conducting some rainmaking cx- periments in Washington. I sCnt up n balloon 10 feet in diameter, filled one third with oxygen and twO-thirds with hydrogen gas. and at q height of l, 500 feet I exploited 1t by an electric wire It was the most extraordinary sight that have ever seelI. that explosion As for the sound-wcll, that was what fright encd me. I wasn't prepared for it. At the instant of explosion the balloon be- came 100 feet in diameter and of a dull rcd color. It wasn't as if it had cx- banded to that size It looked as if the original balloon had simply disappeared and another ten times as big had stimuli taneOusly taken its place. A fraction of a second later the thing vanished. and the air was filled with minute particles.
 Then came an explosion that was simply terrifying. Never have I heard anything to approach it. IL seemed to shake my heart within me My head rang for hours aftcrward- The wire was thrown back to Us Crumpled up like so much twinc. For long distance around all the little fishes ill the brooks were killed by the cunCUssiOn- Directly below the balloon was the bowling alley of the Casino rink. and after the cxplo- sion that alley looked aS if an aerial giant had stepped on it. It collapsed as a card house collarsss under n careless touch On the following day received polite potes rom the assistant secrctary of agriculture and the chief clerk of the Smithsonian institute The secretary protested mildly. The chief clerk set forth that his cattle on n neighbOring farm had been seriously disturbed by the explosion, and would l please go away somewhere when wanted to do it again. moved to Texas. wherc cat tie are cheapr
