Sometimes the stage manager discov- CTS the deception. He is wrothy, but the actors take the matter good na- turedly. When the actor is playing at the same time that a new part is to be learned, rehearsed and costum- ed, he has little time to spare.
 Learning part is harder for a wo- man than a man. The actress returns from the theater about midnight. She sits up late studying the lines, and in the morning she goes to the rehears- al. In the early stages of preparation of play the rehearsals last from about Il o'clock in the morning until or in the afternoon. The remain der of the day is devoted to the cos tuner. When the hours of rehearsal have been reduced the afternoons are spent fitting on dresses and in the selection of bonnets and the various articles of an actress attire. These matters occupy the afternoon usually and allow time only for a hasty din- her before the actress must hurry of to the theater.
 Added to the physical strain is the mental one. The actress is "in 8 State," as she expresses it, just prior to production. The role is disap- pointing; the dresses do not fit; tthe bonnet is fright and the stage manager is insolent.''

SANTA FEE BIsHOPRIC VACANCY Father O'Ryan Discredits the RumoT
 uf Bishop Matz's Appoin ment.

A special dispatch from Santa Fe, N M, states that it is currently re- ported there that Bishop Matz of Den yer is to succeed Archbishop Chap belle at Sanla Fe, the latter having been appointed to New Orleans.
 The removal of Archbishop Chap alle to New Orleans has caused simi- lar reports to be circulated hereto fore, with the coinciding statement that Bishop Matz of Denver was to be his successor. These reports were contradicted by Rev. William O'Ryan, pastor of St. Leo's church, Denver, who said:
 "The appointment of Archbishop ChapelDe to New Orleans is evideni, but as to his successor, the question is not so certain. The successor will be determined first by the bishops Of the province those of Denver and Tucson-and then by the priests of the council and the irremOvable lec- tors of Santa Fe. In the latter place the members of the bishops council and the irremovable rectors will meet and select candidates for the arch bishopric. Their choice will be sub mitted to the other bishops of the province, who are Bishops Matz of Denver and the bishop Of Tucson, and through them they will be forwarded to Rome. Out of the names selected one will be chosen.
 Owing to the exalted powers that are conferred on the archbishops ill the United States, who are now large 1y and chiefly the advisers of the pre- paganda concerning the church's af fairs, their choice always is consid- cred It is impossible that there could have been any consideration of 2 successor of Archbishop Chapelle. Bishop Matz is well known in Santa Fe. He speaks French and Spanish as well as English, and would be an entirely suitable man for the high po- sitiom, but to say that he will be archbishop has no foundation in fact"

PUZZLE QUESTIONS.

ts who have failed to gradu-
 persons who have been non
 by civil service examinations,
 htly complain of the unfairness
 rrelevancy of the questions. From
 standpoint they cannot see why 1ey should be expected to be posted Ion points foreign to the subject and which they have never studied. They forget that their general knowledge and ability are being tested, and not their power to repeat, parrOt+like, the questions and answers from text book.
 The habit of thinking according to conventional lines si& so prevalent that few will realize the force of the statement that not ome person out of ten thousand, except by supreme effort, can leave the beaten track and employ new methods. Now here Is a practical illustration, which you may test and see how force of habit makes a simple innovation extremely difficult
 That the human race employ the decimal system of numeratiOn and no- tation, is due to the fact that we have ten fingers, the use of which was the primitive way, and is still a common method, of reckoning. If man had but seven fingers, we should have evolved septimal system instead Of a decimal one We should add up six untis and then carry over to the sec ond column, nine would be written 12, viz: two units and one seven. Forty-nine would be represented by TOO, and decimal fractions would naturally follow the same rule, as I would stand for one-seventh. With this preliminary practice, let us see how many would correctly express the relative value of a dime and a dollar At present dime being one Genth CD of a dollar, how would you express its value according to a sep timal system, it being understood, of course, that the coins retain their present relative size?
 We note in the June issue of the Christian Herald the following qusry and reply:
 Reader--When wagon is going on the road, does that pant of the wheel that is close to the ground go slower than the opposite side that is free?
 The rim or tire of the wheel trav- els faster than the hub, having to make a much larger revolution or circuit in the same time it takes the hub to revolve, but the part of the tire that is on the ground is neces- saTily travelling at the same rate around its own axis, as that part which is farthest from the ground. If the center of the earth be regarded as the axis, that part of the wheel which rests upon the ground, being nearer the central axis, would be travelling slower than the top part, which is farther from the csntral axis. The computation of the difference would depend upon the size of the wheel.
 It is strange that Dr. Talmage should be caught mapping on a prob lem as old as Samson's lion puzzle, and it would be exceedingly interest ing to know just what his computa- tion would have been if the reader had asked:
 When wagon is going on the road how much faster does the top of the wheel go than the bottom if the wheel is just three feet in di- aIneter?"

 San Francisco, Dec. 2.-The Roths- childs, through the San Francisco house of Liebes & Co.,, are about to enter the Alaska trade.
 Four steamers are being built in section by W. H. Brick & Co.,, the owners of the California Machine Works. When this contract is full filled the machinery and timJbers will be sent to Dutch Harbor, near Una Iaska, to be set up. The firm will then build nine barges In sections to follow the material for steamboat building and the barges will likewise be put together at Dutch Harbor.
 All this work is being done for the Alaska Exploration company, which was incorporated about four months ago with a capital of $1 ,OOO, 900. Isaac Liebes, in speaking of the pro ject, said that it is proposed to have the barges and steamers ready for business when the ice breaks in the Yukon in June. He said the Roths- childs are interested in the venture, which was arranged in London five months ago and there Is practically unlimited capital behind it. Besides a general transportation business, the company will establish trading sta- tions and thoroughly explore the country.

HOW ACTORS LEARN PARTS.
Peculiar Methods Adopted in Men
 orizing the Words.

Actors methods of studying the Enes of part vary. Some memorize quickly Alter a few rehearsals with the book in hand they know the lines, and no further effort in that direction is necessary Others burn much midnight oil in acquiring the author words. Some never learn them. Others pace up and down the stage, repeating the words monotonously and few go through every action of the play while studying. Each gest- ure and movement suggests a line.
 After a few rehearsals the stage manager notifies the actors that they must be trough perfect by the next time. The actors respond by know ing about one line out of five They walk around, holding the books be- hind them, like bad boys at school
 When the stage managers back Is turned they take a peep. In this man. her they get through the ordeal

A Chinese Superstition.

The strange unwillingness Of the Chi
nese to afford help to a drowning man,
or any enc in absolute peril Of his life
otherwise, is based upon belief that
the ghost of the last man killed always
acts as "watchman" of the hades or
purgatory into which, according to Chi
nese belief, the spirit of the departed
first enters, and from which he can only
be relieved by the arrival of a fresh
ghost. If, therefore, mans life be
saved from accidental death, the spirit
Of the person who died Immediately be-
fore him is, in manner, cheated out of
his relief, and will assuredly haunt the
person whose misplaced humanity has
condemned it to u fresh term of dismal
servitude. This belief also obtains
among the highlanders of Scotland -
Exchange.

by Joseph Hopkinson when congress, in

what attitude 10 assume in the struggle
between France and England. Party
feeling ran high, and the air was sur
charged with patriotic enthusiasm. A
young actor in the city, who was about
to have benefit, came to Hopkinson in

unsold, and it looked as if the proposed
benefit would prove failure. IL Hop
