Many Actors Have Become Famous Under Adopted Cosnomcns
A Weakness Of the Profession.

, ire, Philadelphia, has brother In the
variety business under the name OF
Tony Williams. When Tony played
Nortier in Monte Cristo, Jr.," with
Jennie Kimball and Corinne about ten
years ago, he had himself billed legit-
imately as Henri Learock. But it was
too late. The public couldn't get used
to it, his professional companions
couldn't get used to it, and he really
felt strange himself at being called by
his own name. He had been Tony
Williams so long that he had lost his
birthright The discovery was sad
one, recalling the scene where Rip Van
Wrinkles daughter does not recognize
him after his twenty years sleep. Tony
found the effort to re-establish himself
in his family name too great task and
sorrowly assumed again his long used
sobriquet and will remain Tony Will
Jams as long as he lives.
Julia Marlowe was born Fanny
Brough She has a sister on the stage
who uses the name of Marie Brough-
ton. Julia Arthur is Julia Lewis and
adopted the first name Of her brother
Arthur as a surname when she became
a professional Nine. Melba is Mrs.
Armstrong in private life and her stage
cognomen was selected out of respect
to her native city, Melbourne. Emma
Nevada remembered the State in which
she was born, as did Nine. Albani and
Nine. Toronto the cities of their nativ-
ity, when casting about for professional
names. Frank Deshon was born Solo
mon Cohen. Adelaide Princes father
was Mr.. Rubenstein, of Texas, and
Maxine Elliott adopted that name for
stage uses.
And so on and so following. The first
thought of consideration of the young
man or young woman after deciding to
go ION the stage" seems to be to select
suitable name. The reason for this
is hard to find unless ones family name
is in itself ridiculous, such as PUT
tynose" or "Mudface." Why should not
the artist desire credit for his work on
the stage as we'll as when it is on can
vas? But it Is the custom and tends
to preserve the atmosphere OF romance
and unreality that permeates and OBJ
scures the anxieties, the disappoint-
men, and the downright hard work
of an actors life.

more serious rehearsals in law-breaking
are beneficial to a stage career, for Spike
Hennessey and his partner in the gentle

our historic circles John L. Sullivan,

The atmosphere in which Edna Wallace

tions they would unquestionably be hail
ed as about the ablest things in the bene-
factress line that ever came down the
dirt road. But chilling as is the hauteur
with which Mrs. Hopper and Miss Les
sing regard each other, it is not allowed
to stray away from their trim and natty
persons to relieve the fevered brows and
unpleasantly moist cuticles of the other

In no other country but Cuba is the
presence of the public tolerated in the
theatres during rehearsals Climatic
considerations, of course, explain why re-
hearsals are called at a. m, but no Gu
ban I ever spoke to could give any rea-
son why, in Havana, the public should
be permitted to attend rehearsals free of
charge The law, says the Dramatic
News, does not allow a negro to appear
on the Cuban stage, with the result that
the Spanish actors are extremely proud.
and if applause is withheld are prone to
wax extremely wrath. As white ladies in
Cuba would think it derogatory TO appear
as supers. the law which regulates the
theatre is so far relaxed as to allow black
ladies to appear on the stage. But the
male negroes, except as keepers when
quaprupeds are introduced, are sternly
prohibited. In the stock plays which
contain characters unsuited for white
persons painted mulattoes are tolerated.
AS every town in Cuba has its dramatic
censor, and all these gentlemen have
their own views as to how work should
be treated, a play rendered suitable for
Havana frequently requires a. completely
different supervision for, say Santiago.
Needless to say, all plays that have I'M
dergone double censorship are quite
useless for presentation. The -hori
ties, not even the censore being able to
cope with earthquakes, are careful,
mainly because they are fond of attend
ing the theatres themselves to see that
no fires occur. Every theatre during a
performance has upwards of fifty black
bomberos or firemen ready to extinguish
outbreaks. The pit in the Cuban theatre
| is reserved for white gentlemen, and the
first tier which is only raised about a
foot so that conversation may be indulg-
in, for white ladies. AS Cuban ladies
when visiting the theatre love to sport
as many rings as their fingers will hold
they do not wear gloves. Most ladies of
position bring their attendants with them,
but these poor unfortunates are not per-
mitted to share in the fun. FOR they are
compelled to sit on the floor behind their
nistresses. The tinkling of bell outside
during a performance is the signal for
the play to stop TO enable all present, ac-
tors included, to knee down and cross
| themselves. The tnkling bell means that
a procession of priests is passing to adj
minister the holy sacrament to dying
man. All Cuban theatres have boxes on
either side of the prescenium inclosed In
, trellis work. These are for the accom-
mo6ation of families who are in state
| of half mourning. When not let the
seats are often disposed of sub rosa to
! quadroon ladies not allowed to mix with
white but too proud to associate with
| blacks

FIERCE FIGHTS IN THE DEEP.


One OF the most horrible predica-
ments a diver was ever placed in," said
Mr.. Sully, the fRnous Newport diver,
must have been that of one of whom
l once heard who had to investigate a
wreck that had carried to the bottom
with her a number of cattle. When he
blew off the matches the bodies floated
up, and with rush school of hungry
sharks attacked them. They were all
around the diver, fighting and strug-
Cling, and he was in mortal terror lest
his airpipe should be bitten in two in
the midst of the fearful struggle that
was going on. At length, unable to
bear the suspense any longer, he sig
nailed to be drawn up, notwithstand-
ing that he would have to pass through
the thick of the fierce monsters. In his

passage to the surface he brushed close
past the sharks, and one of them made
vicious grab at him. 1t missed his
arm, but caught his fingers and his
hand was badly mangled. Perhaps,
however, he was glad to get off as
cheaply as he did.
IAN American diver once told me
blood eurdling story of fight with
shark waged by man named Hallett.
The latter, it is said, was working in
one of the fashioned bells, and
while he was being lowered one day he
saw below him black object. In q
second or two he recognized that it
was a shark, and to his horror the bell
trapped the monster so that man and
shark were rubbing against each other
In the closest possible proximity. The
shark grew alarmed and swimming
viciously around knocked Hallett from
his seat. The diver had in his hand
a small sharp saw, and fearing that
the shark would make short work OF
him, he seized one of its fins and
plunged his saw deep into its body.
Then terrible struggle began. In the
confined space the shark could not get
at the diver without shaking off the
hold that the latter had got. and the
latter, seeing that his only hope was to
retain his hold, chung on desparetely.
all the time driving his saw time after
time into the body of the maddened
sea tiger. Hallett had contrived to
make a signal and just as his senses
were leaving him he felt himself ris-
ing. When the bell was dragged out
of the water, man and shark rolled
out in blood stained heap, but the
man had conquered. When he came to
his senses he found that torn and
wounded hand was all the injury he
had received In the awful encounter,
but the shark was dead"
