SpaIding bit his lips, and bore up un-
der the ordeal manfully. Andrus, who
pays the bills for the Chicago ball clut
and banks its earnings, kept his eyes
glued resolutely on the proscenium arch
Mrs. Arson and her daughters looked
on pityingly from a box to the left OF
the stage. Jimmy Ryan, Mort Scan
Ian and others of the clan sat in the au'
dience and pounded their hands raw.
His entrance last night in the frs
act was marked by one of the Creates
ovations ever rendered a man in Chi
cago.
He came on attired in suit of Mar.
shantown hand-Tne-downs and tar
gloves, a high hat and a cane. He was
nervous and clutched his cane in a SORT
of mental menace that might have been
intended for the audience that promis-
ed much guying, or for the author re-
Sponsilole for Anson's plight
He was roUged and penciled up and
looked some twenty years younger than
the Arson of the ball field.
For two minutes he was kept in the
upper-center entrance, bowling his ac-
acknowledgements to the storm of plau-
dts, and then made a move towards
the footlights. His feet were heavy
laden and acted contrarily. Finally ne
got chair and dumped his ample
lengths into it with what sounded like a
sigh of relief. He kept his eyes focus
ed on little Alice Evans, and religiously
abstained from looking the house in
the eace."
AS the play progressed Pop" became
more at ease, and finally, when he got
into his native baseball habiliments,
shook off all timidity.

OvER-OEvOTED WIVES,
Women Who Soon Learn to Forget Then
selves.

Women Who Soon Learn to Forget Them
selves.
The more some women do for a man
they are interested in, the greater the
self-denial they practice in his behalf,
the better they seem to like him. And
the more they do for him, it may be
added, the more he is willing they
should do, and the better he likes to
have it done. Such women never APP
pear to be the least conscious that the
man is selfish; or, if they are conscious
of the fact, the rack would not extort
it from them.
OF this disposition are not few
wives of to-day, notwithstanding the
current opinion that most native wives
dominate their husbands and are alto.
gether too exacting. Who has not
seen them, who does not see them still,
in the privacy of their own home, and
who is not unpleasantly affected by
the spectacle? They are far less COM
mon in big cities than in small towns
and the country, but they are more or
less familiar everywhere, and are like
" to be remembered. Their defect,
less, is that they are too good, that
they are over-devoted, and by override
votion they harm morally the men
they think they are helping. Selfish
ness is the browning vice-it has been
called the sole wickedness-andt to en-

The presence of their husband affects
them most unfavorably; it robs them
often of every particle of their indi.
vidualism. With him they have no
light of their own; they shine but
with a faint reflection. They have
opinions enough, they are clever; they
appear to much advantage in society
at large, but in his they are apt to sink
into dizziness and insignificance. They
express their views, TO be sure, but at
