MARY ANDeRsoN's WARDROBE.
When She Had but One Stage Costum
For Five Five Act Plays.

When She Had but One Stage Costume
For Five Five Act Plays.
Throo months elapsed between Mary
Andorson's first appearance on the stage
and her second performance, "a hoart
breaking interval" writes Mrs Dc Ma
varro III Tho Ladies' Home Journal. Man
ager Macauley of Louisville then offered
her his thoater again for week, and she
presented tho chief roles in five plays
"Fazio, 1.-The Hunchback," "Evadno,"
"The Lady Of Lyons" and "Romeo ana
Juliet" OF her first weeks engagements
she writes: AT the end of the week wns
in debt to the manager for the sum of 81,
the house having beon largo enough only
to cover the running expenses. All had
gained by week of hard work WAS sad
heart and n very sore throat. Besides,
creditors became unpleasantly importu-
nate, for my scanty wardrobe was not yot
paid for. This consisted of u white satin
dress, simply made, which did service for
all tho parts. 1t sparklcd in silver trim
ming for Juliet, was covered with pink
roses for Julia, became gay in groom and
gold for Evadne and cloudy with white
lace for Pauline. Tho unfortunate gown
owed Its many changes to the nimblo and
willing fingers Of my mother, who spent
much time each day In its metamorphoses.
IA train Of velveteen, white muslin
dress and modern black silk gown,
which, like Mrs. Toodles, we thought
would be so useful, but which hnd to be
discarded after it's first appearance, COM
pleted my wardrobe-surely meager one
for five plays of five acts each, requiring
at least 10 gowns. We had built up
financial rs we'll as artistic hopes for that
week and were disappointed in BOTH But
1t proved moro successful than was at first
thought, for shortly after, Bon De Bar,
ono of tho greatest Falstaffs Of his time,
engaged me for six nights Mt his ST. Louis
theater. AT the ond of that timo found
myself in his debt for tho sum of 5000, but
tho houses had steadily improved, and tho
press was filled with long articles enthu-
siastio about tho present and full of pro-
dtotions about tho future"

Tho Swiss Bands,

The Swiss bands marched to tho music
of fifo and drum or of their own voices,
tho notation of ono of their marching
songs being still preserved. Tho forest
cantons also sent u horn with their com
panics, which Instruments were known
by nioknames, Bull of Uri, Cow of Inter
walden, and the like. Their sound was
long note Of terror to the men Of Aus
tria and burgundy, and made grand
rallying cry for tho Swiss in action. But
apart from this, these horns appear to be
the origin of tho buglo horns which still
appear on tho appointments Of our light
infantry, and have displaced tho drum as
tho distinctive instrument of tho foot sol.
dier. Each company of course had flag
OF its own, which on march or In action
wns posted In the center. under guard OF
halberds. Whonce tho main body some
times was called by tho namo Of tho pan
nor (banner.) Tho Swiss wero distin-
guishod by tho small sizo Of their flags
the landsknechts, on tho contrary, to 40
ccntuate tho difference between themselves
and their hated rivals, carried enormous
ensigns, and mado great play with them.
Othor nations chose n happy mean between
the two.
Uniform was of course thing virtually
unknown in tho fourteenth and fifteenth
centuries, though tho Swiss, If we are to
trust old woodcuts, wore tho white cross
on red ground even at Sempach Mac
millan's Magazine

The DEVILS CODE.
Legend OF Monk, the Devil and OuicA
Nights Work.

Legend of q Monk, the Devil and a OuicA
Nights Work.
Stockholm's public library contains o
wonderful work which is called "The
DEVILS Code" and which in addition
to its extraordinary name is said to be
the biggest manuscript in the world.
Every letter is most beautifully drawn
and the magnitude Of the work is so
great that it seems impossible for any
single monk to have done it.
The story of the origin Of the manu-.
script, however. not only gives it as
the work of one man, but also states it
to be the work Of asingle night. The
story runs as follows:
"a poor monk had been condemned
70 death, but was told mockingly by his
judges that il he was ablo to copy the
whole Code between darkness and
dawn he would be saved. Relying upon
the impossibility Of the task, those who
sentenced him furnished him with the
original copy of the Code with pen,
ink and parchment and left him.
death must have been as little liked
in tho middle ages as it is now, for the
monk, forgetting the hopelessness of
his task, commenced it. Before long,
however, he saw that he could not save
his own life by such weak exertions,
and fearing cruel and horrible death
no invoked the aid Of the prince Of
darkness, promising to surrender his
soul if he were assisted in the task.
"The devil kindly obliged by appear.
ing on the spot, accepted the contract
and sat. down to the work, and next
morning The Devils Code was finished,
the monk being found dead. The copy
ing clerk from the internal regions pre-.
sumably fled away with the poor man s
soul as soon as the wicked compact was
finished. Pearson Weekly.

TWO ON ICE.
TnIoo Told by Washington Munchauspoe
During an E6sa H7ouP.


Tnloo Told by Washington Munchausooo
During an s6sa Hzor9.
The group around the fire were talk
ing about skating. 81 don't pretend to
be much of a skater said the man
with his feet OH the mantelpiece. "The
last time I INDUCED i'll the pastime,
though. had the good luck to slip into
an airhole."
'You don't call that good luck, dc
you .@Asked the man who had been try
ing to break into the conversation and
tell story himself.
"Well, under ordinary circumstances
I wouldn't call it good luck, replied
the man with his feet ON tho mantel,
"but in this instance it led to my CATCH
ing the largest fish ever found in this
section of the country. It happened this
way. Twas skating around the airhole,
and at last ran plumb into it. The lower
part Of my body went under the ice, but
1 was able to hold myself up by the
arms. At last man came to help me
out, but one Of my skates seemed to
have become entangled in something be-
low the surface, and he had to call for
assistance. Several persons responded,
and by their united efforts pulled me
and four pound rock bass through the
airhole. The jaws of the fish were held
apart by one of my skate blades. I sup
pose," he added by way of explanation,
"that must have stuck my, foot IN
his mouth when I first went down.
1t was the unuttered consensus of
opinion that the raconteur was liar.
There was short pause, and the man
who had been waiting for chance told
Of an adventure on Lake Superior. He
said that while skating there one even
ing, far from shore, he was pursued by
monstrous gray wolf. 1.-THE wolf
chased me about considerably, he said.
"but wasn't afraid, because I always
was good skater and could beat any
wolf that was ever created when it
came to getting around on the ice.
After ] had little fun with the animal,
making figure Fights and things like
that around him, I thought would put
him to some use. So made sudden
dash around to his rear and caught hold
of his tail with one hand. I had q
shinney stick in the other and beat him
across the back with it. Well, gentle
men, that beast was so shocked and sur
prised that he didn't know what to do.
He jumped around just like q colt that
was being broken in. I held on tight,
though, and he finally came to the con-
clusion that he wanted to go home and
lit out for shore.
"Gentlemen, know you will believe
me when / say that that was the SUI
preme moment Of my life. There was
holding to that VOLTS tail with one
hand, beating him with the shinney stick
which / held in the other and flying
over the CLASSY surface at the rate of
about 40 miles an hour. AS we neared
the shore he slowed up some. and on
reaching the land he lay down and died
from exhaustion.
II have his hide at home now," con-
tinued the narrator, "and you can see it
if you want to-"
This seemed satisfactory proof Of the
truth Of the tale. At least no one uues-
toned it, and the meeting adjourned. -
