AN AGED COUPLE

Concluded to Wed
1t takes great deal to disturb the
equanimity Of Sam Kutz, the deputy in
charge of the marriage license department
of the county clerks Office, but he received
q shock yesterday from which it took him
some minutes to recover. Yesterday a
grizzed old veteran, arrayed i'll the regula-
ton uniform of the soldiers home, ambled
into the Office and presented himself at the
desk. Sam, who, by the way, is veteran
himself, thought it was a belated PEN
sioner coming in to make his affidavit, and
FASTENED forward to attend to him.

clam?' asked Sam in his biaudest man
ner. "Oh, no: | want a marriage license"
replied the caller. AS soon as he recov-
cred, Mr.. Kutz proceeded to make out the
necessary certificate. The old man said
that his name was William Rising, and he
owned up that n years had passed
over his hoary head. The bride was
Mrs. Mary F. Spaiford of Pomona, aged
81 years. The old man could not write,
but he made his mark, and started for the
door, after leaving $2.2o with the clerk in
exchange for his precious document, when
Mr.. Kutz called out, where is your adj
dress, Mr.. Rising; want to send you your
certificate" "Oh, l will remain at the
home as regular thing. but of course viii

the wife, replied he old man as he van

In announcing the engagement of that

The weekly salary list of Charles Froh-

This is paid out to the regular forces.
There is a large corps of extra and minor
people in addition to the 40S included in
this list, and the amount paid to them
would greatly swell the weekly total. As
the figures stand, MIR. Frohman pays ms

dozen years ago France did not beileve
that England had a drama. IQday Its
authors, plays and critics are seriously dis.
cussed in one of the most brilliant or
French literary magazines and by an
author of rare intelligence. oozen years
ago, too, England did not believe America
had a drama. Now, however, she Is
keenly alive to the fact.
At first the dramatic papers had it all to-
themselves in the field of theatrical gossip
and comment. Then the daily papers be-
gan to devote columns of space to theatre
cal subjects some years ago. The weekiies
followed suit. Munsey's Magazine has
been for some time publishing an extern
sive resume of dramatic doings and nu-
merous beautiful half-tone portraits OF
prominent players, and Peterson's and
Godey's are doing likewise. Now the dig.
nitied and reserved Forum is about to es-
tablish a dramatic department, dealing
with current productions. Surely there Is
no profession, art or business-whatever
you choose to call it-that gets more space
in print than does the theatrical.

1t appears that a finished comedy, La

The London critics are still discussing II.
v. Esmond's play, "The Divided Way"
which seems to be strong and logical, but
unpleasant, piece. The London World
says: "He has gone straight to a simple,
tragic theme, and he has created q
man and woman with blood in their
bodies and will in their brains. His play
will, no doubt, be sneered at as senti-
mental, because, without criticism, irony,
OF hesitancy of any sort, he accepts pas
sion as the central fact and force of life.
For my part. welcome return to that
antique point of view, and l rejoice in the
youthful sincerity which prevents Mr.. Es-
mond from posing as a disilusioned man
of the world. His play is really Renais-
sance tragedy in modern dress. Middleton
or Haywood might have treated the subject

actress and play have been SO much dis
cussed, that as a matter of course theatei
goers in general are anxious to see both
play and actress. Miss Lewis has staged
this play in SO magnificent a manner that
it really marks an epoch in the staging of
classic drama. Cleopatra's life was car
nival pleasure. She and her Roman lover
lived for the sake of life's pleasures, and
the voluptuous sensuousness of the Orient
was exhausted and drained by them. or
Miss Lewis and her production it can in all
truth be said that it is dramatic spectacle
which nothing short of gorgeous can
adequately describe, and that Miss Lewis
herself as Cleopatra made a genuine sue
cess. Extravaganza in the heralding of an
attraction is poor policy, for the reason
that it is more advantageous to the BUSH
ness interest to have press and public say
that the reality as seen on the stage was
all that the advertisements claimed than
to have them fall short. Then also the
great and grand has so injudiciously been
made use of that its potency is lost, but the
general tenor of the comments about Miss
