SET THE ICE CREAM AFIRE.
Joseph Jefferson Tells of Il Funny
Incident in Western
Theater.

Joseph jefferson, at a recent dinner,
where he was the guest of honor, said
that he had been asked to tel some of
the curious and amusing stage incl
dents that had come under his obserya-
ton during his long career. In compli-
ance with this request he narrated a
number of ludicrous occurrences that
came to his mind on the spur of the
moment, and among them he recalled
the happenings at a theater in one OF
the western towns a good many years
ago.
The stage properties and resources of
this theater. Mr.. jefferson said, were of
the most primitive kind. There was a
banquet scene in the play, az which
moiasses and water did duty for wine,
and Sea Island cotton acted the part of
ice cream. The stage manager did not
practice total abstinence, and his assist
ants took their cue from him.
On the night in question one of these
assistants, who was far from sober, in
placing a candelabrum on the banquet
table, managed to tip a lighted candle
over into the ice cream bowl And the
spectators were instantly treated to the
unparalleled experience of seeing ice
cream IN a blaze.
Their enjoyment of the situation was
increased by the further mistake of the
tipsy assistant, who, being instructed
to put the light out and not noticing
that the ice cream was on fire. stag
gered back to the table and extinguished
the candles.

NOT DOING THE WORRYING.
Conditions Under Which . Partn Z
Thinks He Ought to Put in
More Capital.

81 haI made a discovery said Mr..
Bilious, in the New York Sun, "and
that is that there is likely to be some
one person in household that does all
the worrying. There may be others that
fret, and very likely fret over trifiing
things, but the real worrying over
things that have got to be done and got
TO be looked after is usually done by
one person. The person that does the
worrying in my house is Mrs. Billtops.
The children and myself and all hands
lean on her and expect her to do every
thing. l don't know, but l sort of
think that we expect her TO provide
things whether we have any money or
not, and she certainly does seem to
make everything come out all right
somehow.
"Now. as a rule, among men, the
man who does the worrying gets paid
for it. He is usually the man at the
head of an enterprise, or a concern, or
department, or whatever it may be,
who is able to do the work and willing
to take the care and responsibility of
it. Those under him may pile their
cares up on him, and he shoulders them
many a man-easily. There are,
flank goodness, plenty of men that
don't shy at responsibility.
But these men get paid for what
they do, and Mrs. Billtops does not,
unless she counts my appreciation as
something. The children don't realize
what she does; they expect it. And as
for me, the silent partner, if don't
stand up and take the knocks. think

NAVAL SHIPS TAILOR.
No Landsman Can Compete with the
HandiyOrk of the jolly
blue Jacket.

The skill displayed by the sailors on
board our naval vessels in making their
own clothes, even to their caps, sur
prises the average landsman, who has a
vague idea that these things are sup
piled by government tailors. Ready
made uniforms are supplied to the re-
cruits. but as soon as the men get their
sea legs and begin to have some pride
in their appearance, they get their uni
forms made by the tailors in the crew.
and much better fitting clothes they
are. 1t is a well-recognized fact that
no tailor ashore can compete with these
sailor tailors in making bluejacket
suits. With his ditty box and his small
hand sewing machine a ships tailor,
after his regular duties are over, can
make extra money to spend ashore. He
charges about five dollars for making a
sailor suit with all its trimmings, and
the man who employs him draws his
cloth from the ships stores. For max
ing cap, including the fancy en-
broidery about the top and band, the
charge is $3.50, and a well set up tar
wouldn't think of wearing cap bought
ashore if he had money and pride. The
cap makers in a ships crew are experts
in various styles OF embroidery. These
tailors and cap makers aboard ship are
classed usually with the thrifty men,
and the amount of money they can
make and save in three years cruise
sometimes amounts to 81 500 or more
and there is a tradition in the navy tha /
cruiser San Francisco several years ago
after a three years cruise with $1,000

who had been very poor before he
struck it rich, and who, consequently
was unfamiliar with many ordinary
usages of life of luxury, says Harper's
Magazine.
"Oi say, yez kin bring me two dozen
eyesters," he said, airily, as he took a
seat in one of the finest restaurants in
Frisco.
The oysters were soon set before
him, and Finnegan, looking about him
for something to put on them, and
hardly knowing what that something
should be, spied bottle of Tobasco
and proceeded to season the bivalves
not wisely but too well.
1mpaling an oyster upon his fork, he
thrust it into his mouth. then leaped
to his feet with a terrific roar of pain
and began dancing about and yelling
like a mailman.

AMERICA AND ENGLAND.
Two Things That would Bring About
An Alliance Between the
Nations Instantly.

Two things would bring about an
Anglo-American alliance instantly. If
a combination of European powers
should be formed to crush the United
States-and after the official utterances
of the foreign ministers of Germany
and Austria this is not wholly an ex-
travagant superstition = they would
have to crush the British fleet as well.
That this is the view of those at present
responsible for British policy I know,
writes Henry Norman in Cosmopolis
As | have said elsewhere, we should
never stand by and see a hundred mil
lions of people who speak English
trampled on by people who speak Rus
sian or French or German. And we
cherish, not as those who have no hope,
the conviction that if the people who
speak Russian and French and German
laid aside for the moment their deadly
rivalries to join in crushing us, beside
the flag of the three crosses there would
be found on the seas a certain flag of
stripes, as we'll as stars"

CHILDHOOD LOVERS UNITED.
An Interesting Romance Which Be-
gan in Muncie, Ind, and
Ended In Hawaii.

An, interesting romance, which be-
gan in Muncie, Ind, and ended III Homo
lulu, has just been told to the brides
relatives in the Indiana town. Twenty
years ago Miss Allie Smell, eldest daugh-
ter CT DR.. s. Smell, now deceased, and
George W. R. King were schoolmates
and lovers. They agreed to get mar
ried when both reached a certain age,
but the young mans parents moved
from Muncie and finally landed in
Honolulu, where they have since re-
sided. Miss Smell was later married to
Thomas Connor and for many years the
couple have lived happily together
They moved to San Francisco three
years ago, and a year ago were divorced,
after she had learned the place of resi-
dence of her schoolmate lover and the
fact that ne was yet unmarried. Soon
after the divorce the lady met her child
hoods lover and a wedding was ar
ranged for upon the arrival of Mrs Con-
nor in Honolulu.
The lady is the possessor of large
properties, mostly located in Muncie,
and her new husband is a rich man.
