AN ACTORS AFFLICTroN.
AS ANNOUNCED 1t Caused tho Manager
Soro Distress.

Sorc Distress.
In the early ''stocl1" DAYS of Wash
ington, before the starring system was
in vogue, it often happened that some
bibulous member of the company
sought surccasc of sorrow in the flow
ing bowl, says the Washington Post.
Salaries had not reached that fabulous
outline which now prevails, and the
ghost did not always walk, and there
fore, there was always more or less
sorrow to be appeascd in the popular
tap rooms about town where the ''pro-
fession" congrcgated. 1t happened on
one occasion that too liberal indul-
gence had rendered hors de combat one
of the leading members of the COM
pany, who is still q prominent and pop
ular actor to-day. 1t was not the first
time that he had been discovered in a
helpless condition just MS the curtain
was about to go up, but he was cast for
leading part on this particular night,
and there was great excitement on the
stage. 1t was decided to substitute
another bill, and the question now
turned on the nature of the explana-
ton to be made to the waiting audi
ence.
Announce that Mr.. Brown has had
n sudden attack of cholera morbus or
bowel complaint" said the distressed
manager of the thcatcr to the stage
manager.
This worthy was n heavy-voiccd in
dividual with strong Dublin accent
and Celtic temperament which in
clined to the humorous. He made his
way before the curtain, bowed and in
his deep, rolling voice addressed the
audience as follows:
Ladies' and Gentlemen: 1 regret to
announce that the management is
obliged to change the bill tonight,
owing to Mr.. Brown, who has had u
severe attack of bowl complaint"
The audience caught the spirit of tho
joke, and, amid general laughter, set
tied down to the enjoyment of the per-
Torrance.

Those Deer Isle tars wish me to say that
they are disguised with the cheap talk Of the
New York Recorder, Bangor Commercial
and a few other petty so-called newspapers,
in regard to their treatment on board the
with their yacht, their captain ana their
treatment. The Valkyrie has a noble crew
of English tars, the Vigilant good crew of
Scandinavians, and the Defender crew of
full blooded Americans. Some Of the lat
ter have helped defend the cup in three
different yachts and have defended it with
all honor. The disgraceful slurs that have
been printed against the Defender, her
captain and her crew, in few of these so
called American papers, have caused all true
Americans to blush FRED P. WEED.
