Went Out BetWeen Acts Herself:

It did not take place in the. city or Washington, because no man in Wash. ington leaves lady alone while he goes out between the acts at theater-un- less it be his wife and, of course, that doesn't count.
 But 1t did occur, and the site of Its occurrence is not west of the Allegha- nies, where, according to some Eastern thinkers, all the peculiar occurrences occur.
 The man In the case was perhaps S0,~ the girl 22, and the theater was one In which the melodrama has its home. The girl was pretty and there was that kind of jaw hedging the lower part of her rosy cheeks that ought to have been a hint to the young man. The young man was a very fair sample of the average chap who makes $1200 to $500 a year.
 Between them and the aisle sat a big man of 50 with his wife and two daugh- ters, and the big man had voice big ger than he was. When the curtain went down on the first act there was a slight scrap between the couple, which ended in the young man not going out between the first and second acts, be- cause the wait was short and he hadn't time to argue The girls cheeks were redder than before when the curtain went up and the set of her jaw was firmer.
 At the next fall of the curtain there was a slight scrap again, which ended this time in the young man dragging himself over four people and leaving the girl to sit alone until he was ready to come back to her.
 Two minutes later the girl dragged herself after him, over the same four people, but she stopped in the aisle long enough to say something to the big. man with the two daughters. Then she disappeared.
 It was a long wait, and just as the curtain started up the young man hur- ried down the aisle, and was about to drag himself over four people when the big man called his attention to the va cancy which had occurred during his absence
 The young mans jaw dropped and he actually grew red in the face.
 The big man handed him a ring with a bright little diamond glistening in it.
 "She gave me that and told me to give it to you" he said, with a menace n his tone as he looked over at his own girls, "and she said if you ever came to her house again or spoke to her her father would thrash you as you de- served"
 The young man was paralyzed.
 And I want to say" added the big man, that if the old man aint able to do it he can call on me"
 Then he let the young man go, and the way he went was caution to a flying machine.
 1t was a clear case of ships that pass in the night, but with just little more interesting cargoes than usual.-Wash- ington Star.

theaters, as the regular Baldwin at fractions will play at the Columbia and those intended for the Columbia at the California. It is vaguely rumored that Richard Mansfield may open the new year at the Columbia with "Cyrano de Bergerac" In the meantime we are having plenty of cheap "Cyrano," but very little sensation about it. The Hen derson production offers no cue for a serious consideration of the play, and the critics have about used up their jokes on the subject.
