BETR BY HIS VOICE.
A Boy in the Role of n Wild Barba-
rian is Embarrassing.

From the New Orleans Times democrat.
Mr.. Gottschalk, now in New Orleans
as representative of musical attractions,
tells an amusing story of the elder Sal
yini who for once at least lost tenn
porarily his magnificent repose. About
fifteen years ago Mr. Gottschalk was rep
resenting Salvini. The combination arriv-
ed at a small one-night stand in the west.
'Ingomar," with its wild, hairy barbarians,
was to be played. In order to put on the
play properly it was necessary to take in
a stock of barbarians, and the manager
called into his Office the men who gen.
orally served as supers, but when they
were told what they had to do and how
they should be dressed, with decollete
legs and frowsy whiskers. the men dis
played a startling unwiliingness They
said that all their friends in town would
guy them if they came on the stage in
such a rig. No arguments could prevail
with them; all the available men in town
absolutely refused to go on as barba-
rial s. The manager was in great strait.
1t was absolutely necessary to have the
barbarians or they could not proceed. So
he called into service all the large boys
in the town and instructed thems in the
part they would have to play.
In one or two scenes they were re-
quired to shout few words in chorus.
The manager. did not think 1t necessary
to worry Mr.. Salvini about his supe diff
Guilty, SO that Mr.. Salvinf was in blissful
ignorance when he stepped before the
fooiSghts. The barbarians made q spien-
did appearance; with their big whiskers
and rough goatskins they looked very
fierce and forbidding. Now. during the
course of ''Ingomar'' Mr.. Salvini was
called upon to ask the barbarians if they
desired the death Of a captive. and the
barbarians were called upon to respond
with terrible shout, XIII him, Kill
him. Mr.. Salvini reached this point
He asked with his usual dramatic force.
Shall we kill him?" But no terrible shout
arose from that band of hideous, bearded
barbarians. Instead there floated upon the
air in a ludricrous contrast a faint trem-
bling boyish treble. XIII him. Kill him."
The audience Eowled. and for a moment
even the great Salvini was abashed

A RAILROAD STATION ABANDONED
Depot at Paramount, Ill, Nailed Up ns
a REGULATORY Measure.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat
The Wabash Railroad Company has yir-
tually wiped out the station at Fairmount,
Ill. The depot is nailed up. The telegra phi
instruments were taken out and the serv-
ices of the agent dispensed with Only one
train a day stops in the town, which has
about 1900 inhabitants. The right of way
has all been fenced in and the elevators
and other buildings on the right of way
have been ordered removed. The depot, it
is said. Will be moved two miles east where
the railroad expects to build ND another
station. The trouble commenced a year
ago, when the Wabash company through
some legal informality, escaped paying the
taxes assessed against 1t. The train service
was also claimed to be very poor for Fair
mount. The village authorities to get
even. insisted on strict enforcement of the
ordinance limiting the speed of fast trains
through the village.

DE LoME,s REGARDS.

Dr. Edward Randall Knowles, who hap
pened to meet Dupuy de LONE last Sep
tember, while on an outing at Lenox, ex-
presses the view that the ex-minister is
not only insincere, but sarcastic in his
final adieu to America.
de Lone" says DIR. Knowles, is a
most winning, frank and courteous gem
tleman to even a newly found friend, but
he unquestionably despises republicanism
and believes that in a country where the
mean and vicious have votes you have TO
adapt yourself to those with whom you
have to deal This is d careful summary
Of his expressed views.
''And while he isas tender-hearted as any
one concerning the Maine horror, yet it is
clear to me that his much reiterated 'ex-
pressions of love for America, on sailing,
We're a sarcastic parody on the interviews
commonly sent off by noted English and
French visitors, usually concocted TO play
en- American national .conceit.
DR. Knowles has received notice from
Prince Guy de Lusignan, the legitimist
prince roval Of Armenia and Cyprus, that
upon his request the Gordon of the Royal
Armenian Order of Mount Sinai has been
bestowed upon Dupuy de LONE and Fred
ericCl G. Penfield of Connecticut, ex-consul
general at Cairo. This order, instituted in
1863. antedates the Hospitallers and every
order Of knighthood except the papal dec
oration of the Order of st. John of Jeru-
Sa lem.

forty stamp mill has just been erected.
The enterprise, according to the re-
port of Consul General Allen, has eve
ry prospect of succeeding. Labor is
cheap, being about 20 cents, gold, a
day, and the supply is ample.
1t is odd to hear of American enter
prise waking up the echos in the Land
of the Morning Calm. But the work
ing of this concession will mean the
introduction of American machinery
and goods into that country. It is I'M
