"Talking about dead heads,' said
James Jay Brady last night, when 1t
comes to awarding the blue ribbon, be
sure TO scan closely the claims OF the
theatrical type. In my humble opinion,
he will win the honor hands down, as
they say in sporting phrase. have had
a splendid chance in my life TO study
this animal. Until he is killed OF TO a
degree, think Christianity will make
little progress with managers. You
know him as we'll as [ do. lie VIII
bother around all day TO get the desired
fayors, and when he reaches the man
who has the power to crafty him ne IS
sure to be critical of the location OF his
seats. Being theatrical man. he feels
that he has right to the best and all he
wants. At night he will come i'll late,
and make performance OF his en-
trance. He Will not sit quietly and en-
Joy the show like other peo-
pie; no, that would never do;
it would be too commonplace.
He must comment audiDly, and as
rule does it in words that would make
man ache for just one kick where 1t
would dc the most good. Rotten
yellow and a lot of such elective
words pour out upon the ears OF those
who have the misfortune to be seated
near him. One of these terrible ex-
ampleS of conceit and ignorance was in
evidence at the Metropolitan theater
the other evening. He came to see the
Crust Of Society," and had seats than
which there were no better in the house.
Everyone knows, who is up in theatrical
matters, that this play is an artistic and
powerful work. 1t not only has
dramatic value, but also rare literary
quality. This chap, however, did not
seem to think so. lie ratified on
1lippantly about everything that came
before his vision, and drew rough com-
parsons between this.scene and that
actor and what he had previously seen
il New York.
Now, as matter of fact, no one
with as much brain as a fishing worm
could be fooled by this fellows noisy
vaporngs. Will wager a box of the
best Perfectos that he never saw the
piece before, and as for passing on its
merits, that if he ever by some hook CT
crook of mercy or fate got mixed up
with the tenth part of an original idea.

an aching head and run to doctor,
Such fellows should be treated in The
theater the same as drunken man or

and enjoy performance have some
rights and should not be annoyed by
these deadheadS. If they do not like
the show, let them stay away or get out,
and not cry out against everything to
the annoyance of those who seem to

"a RAILROAD TICKET"
The Farce-Comedy Which Opens
at the Grand.

The FarCe-COmeuy " nlCH OpeHS
at the Grand.
One of the most successful farce
comedies of the season is "a Railroad
Ticket" which comes to the Grand to-
night. Undoubtedly the chief reason
for its pronounced success is that 1t Is
filled with fun. From start to finish the
food for laughter is dealt out with law
ish hand. What is more, the unt1agging
humor IS new and springs spontaneously
from everyday happenings and experl-
euces. In constructing IA Railroad
Ticket" the author left the beaten path
of arce~comedy far 10 one side. He
entirely eschews the ancient gags and
devices. No siphon bottles nor crash"
ing crockery enter into his theme
of diversion. The Superabundance
of humor. crowding every scene. is
good. original and Irresistible. In the
line of legitimate comedy the laughable
stuati ons are worked up. OF the best
and fetching kind is the music. A me-
chanical adjunct is an electric car, fully
equipped, well-flled with passengers,
and in rapid motion, and a rainmaking
machine in operation. The company
presenting the piece this season is said
to be all excellent one, and includes
William Blaisdell, late with the Pauline
Hail Opera company; James t. Kelly.

BISMARCK, N. D., Jan. IL. - In the

Married JOCKEYS.

Horsemen always hear with evil
dent regret the announcement of the
intended marriage of their Jockeys.
To be sure, it has a tendency to
steady them, but then turfmen claim
marriage covers a good boy. This
seems to be the turning point in his
career, and nc matter how coura-
geous and daring he may have been
before, a great change is always no.
ticed after his marriage. Reckless
rides around turns and daring rushes
through big fields are seldom at
tempted by married jockeys. They
leave this dangerous work to the
more inexperienced youngsters. An
owner doesn't like to see his horse
pocketed or cut off, and that's why
he prefers to have an unmarried
jockey, who is not bothered with
wifely warnings before going to the
post to be careful, for her sake at
least.--St. Louis Post Dispatch.

Popularity of Science,

AS scientific research has so much
to do with III daily life, our com.
forts, u health and happiness, as
well as contributing so beneficently
to u commercial profit and safety,
it is not at all surprising that not
only the scientist, but the leverage
man" is constantly on the alert for
everything pertaining to scientific
affairs. Illustrative of this modern
trend, we find that the number of
science schools in England has near
ly doubled in the past ten years.
The number of pupils has also more
than doubled, and the payments to
science schools on the results of the
examinations have increased by
more than 96, 900 since last year.
This country being more progressive
than England, there has doubtless
been a much greater advance. In
fact, technical, industrial and man.
ual training schools have been open
ed i'll every important city, and the
demand for such practical education
is constantly increasing.-Atlanta

OF seeing him there would invariably be
Irresistible. Chips dog, as he walked
through the columns of the comic journals
or sat occasionally in some far corner and
with his quiet smile gazed at the scene
depicted by the artist, has done much in
an unconscious way to make the public
better. He has taught us a lesson of
cheerfulness, for he has invariably breathed
the spirit of a joyous disposition. The
New York Sun says of Mr.. Bellew:
HE was the son of Frank Bellew, the
well known caricaturist, and as q young
boy he decided to follow in his fathers
footsteps. To prevent the confusion that
would arise from the similarity of the two
names he selected as a pseudonym Chip,
to indicate that he was a chip of the old
block. But opportunities that were de-
MED to his father and his fathers contem-
poraries were opened up to him. Comic
papers were founded and hourished that
were really funny, and in them Chips
work found a ready market. Puck, Judge,
Life and a score of other papers were on
the lookout for good work, and Chips orig
1nality n humor made him a valuable
find. His market was established, and
his signature became known. Chips work
was essentially caricature."
Here are a few drawings of Mr.. Bellows
done in the years past for Life:
