GREENROOM GOSSIP.

Paul NJ. Potter has been accused of pla
giarizing some of the best bits of ''Sheri-
dan," and the most embarrassing part of it
all is that the newspaper man who makes
the charge draws the deadly parallel on
him.
Sadie Martinot wants one act plays, as
she will probably star next season in a
series of Rosina Vokes' repertories
"sowing the Wind" now running at the
Empire theater, New York, has unques-
tionably afforded that charming actress,
Viola Allen, the opportunity to make the
Miss Maud Edna Hall, very beautiful
girl, who has had considerable stage expe-
rience, may go starring next year in light
comedy especially written for her.
Charles Coghlan is said to be writing a
play for the New York Lyceum theater
stock company. The nature and title of
the piece have not yet been divulged.
Some men who have announced that they
will star next season are almost as certain
to fail, and fail quickly, as day is to follow
night. And yet these people will have no
trouble to hire actors.
There is not a really great leading man
or woman on the American stage today
This is one of the unavoidable results of
the practical humiliation of the stock sys

Julia Marlowe will make professional
trip to London. So will Richard Mans

Adelina Patti has gone, and Americans
will never again have the opportunity to
hear her incompatible ''S25O apiece" notes
until her next ''positively farewell' tour.
Miss Madeline Pollard has had an offer
to 80 upon the stage at salary of $500 a
week because of the notoriety obtained
during the Breckinridge trial. It is said
that she has very sensibly declined.
Miss Kathrine Clemmons, who is perhaps
the shortest lived star on record, does not
despair. She hopes to make a name for
herself yet. If she would essay comedy,
there would be a strong probability Of sue

New York city already has more theaters
than it can support. In spite of this, how
ever, another temple of art" is to be built
in the neighborhood of Third avenue and
Eighty-siXth street.
Helen Dauvray has selected the play in
which she will star next season. 1t is a
light comedy.
It is among the possibilities that Eleono-
| ra Duse and Sarah Bernhardt will both
| visit America next season and even play in
New York at the same time. This would

ligently of the relative merits of these Won

I'm Explanation.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TRANSCRIPT:
Dear Sir: The Democrats umer-
Gus references. to myselfin this weeks
issue would call for no reply. were
it not that in one place it asserts
that l owe two years. subscription
to that paper.
This is not true because have
never been Il subscriber, and this the
editor admitted yesterday in the
presence of myself and a witness. The
facts are these-shOrtly after my
arrival in this city the Democrat was
sent to me without any sOlicitat ton
on my part. AS the Herald and the
Transcript have, with generous
courtesy, been sent to me free ever
since I came to Little Falls I
naturally supposed that" the DEM
ocrat was pursuing the same course,
especially as no bill was ever sent
me and no request for payment has
ever been made. In fact Mr.. Lyon
who was formerly associated with
the paper states that my name was
entered upon the books in the sense
l inferred. 1t was therefore a surprise
to read that l was owing for two
years subscription. 1 at once, in
order to avoid any misunderstanding
and to ne free from the semblance of
an obligation, paid the amount and
in SO doing was amused to find that
according to the EDITORS statement
he had sent the paper to me weeks
before he knew of my existence, or l
had even seen this city.
lam further accused ofhaving said
last Sunday evening "that the
Democrat was without influence and
without subscribers" II said no
such thing and never, mentioned
that or any other paper by name.
What l did say was-that when
ministers. oppose different forms OF
evil "some insignificant newspapers
weekly in issue, weakly in contents,
and conspiciously low in moral and
intellectual tone will in canting
manner advise ministers to avoid
such subjects and preach Christ and
Him crucified:' The editor <of the
Democrat evidently believes that his
paper is marked by the above
fea lures and it is- doubtful if any
intelligent person will differ from
! him. .. fl.&s

The facts doubtless are that the

either or both Of the companies. The

it serves to display the peculiar

The city contracts with the Electric

the company would be to expose
the unfairness of any contract it has
made. No other company has in.

for the production or transmission
of services solely for local use, with
no chance of income except what is
received for that which is used, and
constant attacks ON such a company
seem very childish.
