the play descriptive of Ronola.
There was not such another golden

hair is raven black, and the blonde
wig makes a striking alteration in he-
appearance, but it accords well with
the character ascribed to Romola by
the novelist, who pictures her as akin
to a sairit. The sale of seats begins

who in private life is Mrs F. C. Har-
riott, is being congratulated on her
escape from death while attempting to
control a team of runaway horses last
night. Mrs. Rarriott and her husband
had been driving about the Bronx park
for an hour and had separated, Mrs.

road for nearly mile. Mrs. Harr1ott
guided them clear of obstacles until
the gateway opening into her grounds
was reached. Here one of the wheels
collided with a post and Mrs. Harriott
was thrown violently to the ground
Although severely bruised, she is not
suffering any serious results.
WINDOW WEDS.-Chfcago Oct.
Sin spite of the fact that he wrote
the Fatal Wedding and sang it for
two years, William H. Window, the
ballad singer of Primrose & Vests
minstrel company, decided that mar
riage was not always a harbinger of
impending dissolution, after all, for he
was welded last night to Miss Joe
Clemens.
The marriage took place at the home
of the brides parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
Stephen Clemens, No. 143 Campbell
avenue. Many of the minstrel COM
pany were present and large number
of other theatrical people.
The wedding took place at midnight,
an hour selected as being most con-
venient for the groom and his friends.
Mr. Window was for two years with
the Haverly minstrels, and has been
five years with Primrose & West. He
is the composer of several popular bal
lads.
THE PLAY WENT ON. = New
York, Oct S-The lights had been
turned low for the third act of North
ern Lights in the Grand opera house,
Brooklyn, at yesterdays matinee, and
the last orchestral note had scarcely
died away, when George S. Norris, the
bass violin player, lurched forward in
his seat, blood gushing from his mouth.
An instant later he fell from his chair
and rolled into the small pit in front
of the little door leading under the
stage.
R. Bauman, the conductor, with the
assistance of other members of the or
chestra, carried Norris to a room be-
low the stage. Bauman felt for the
mans pulse It was stilled forever.
All this time the play was going on.
Not one of the actors, nor none among
the audience had any notion of the
tragedy hidden from their view under
the footlights Death is believed to
have been caused by apoplexy.
