NoRWAYs' POPULAR ACTRESS.

The Norwegians are mourning the
loss OF their greatest actress, Mrs.
Laura Gundesen, the creator of the
principal woman characters in Ibsens
and Bjornson's dramas. She was born
in Bergen, on the western coast of Nor
way, in 1888, and was thus Sc years old
when she died. She went on the stage
at the early age of Is, but did not make
her debut in any important part until
she was 10, when she played Juliet in
Romeo and Juliet" and Gretchen in
Faust" In 1870 she Joined the Ma
tional Theatre in Christiania, which
had just been opened under the aus
pices Of Bjornstjerne BJornson. About
this time she appeared as Mary, Queen
Of Scots, in his drama of that name and
at once established her reputation as
an actress of the highest r.lk. She
next appeared as Hermione, BESIDE
mona and Lady Macbeth, which are
considered her greatest roles In her
classical repertory. 1t is no secret
that Ibsen wrote several of his dramas
with Mrs. Gundesen in his minds eye
as the ideal representative of his hero
ines. Mrs. Gundesen possessed a won
derfully clear and melodious voice,
which she preserved to the last, and her
piastique was pure and noble.

'0h, that's easy. l used to do the
Dutch, IRISH and Italian parts in the
Skunktown CaNiopeans." persisted the
fellow.
The stage manager bade him return the
next day and he would have the part
ready for him. At precisely two o'clock
the victim was on hand. He was given
the lines to read in yells, while he was
chased up and down the stage by scene
shutters and supers. Finally he was tied
to rope dangling from the flies and
hauled up ten feet from the stage While
he was in midair the stage manager and
property man had a long argument about
. the rope. At the settlement of the dis
pute he was lowered to the stage and re-
signed at once ON the plea that he did not
think he was strong enough to stand the
strain of such part all season.

nov CONES 4. Oh. v. DAY
The Local Lodges Making Arrange
msnts for q Big Outing Wednesday
AT WHEELING PARK-IT WILL BE
PROCEEDED BY A SHORT Pa
RADE IN WHICH ALL THE
WHEELING AND VISITING
LODGES WILL PARTICIPATE.
THE SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS
FOR THE CELEBRATION.

Next Wednesday, June 14th, will be
given up to pleasure by members CT the
local lodges of the Ancient Order of
United Workman. No beneficial order
has such a large membership in this
city as the A. o. U. w. The affair
promises, therefore, to be one of con-
siderable magnitude. The arrange
ments are in charge of general COM
mittee composed of representatives
from each of the subordinate lodges.
The outing and celebration at Wheel
ing Park will be preceded by big
street parade in which all the Work
men and Mogullians will participate.
2 Members OF the order are called to
meet at the Temple, corper Market and
Fourteenth streets. at R:45 p. m. sharp.
The parade will form on Chapline street
between Fourteenth and Sixteenth
street, and the command of march will
be given about Ills o'clock. The route
will be down Fourteenth to Market, to
Ninth, to Main, to Twentyfourth, TO
Chapline, to Twenty-second, to Market,
to Sixteenth, to W. & E. G. motor
Office, where cars will be taken fer
Wheeling Park. The Opera House
Band of eighteen pieces will lead the
column.
A prize has been offered to the lodge
turning out the largest proportion of
its membership in the parade. The eff
fort during the past few weeks to Sc
cure the $4,000 prize offered the SUI
preme Grand Ledge has resulted in ac-
cessions to the membership OF every
Wheeling lodge, and the parade viii
be the largest turnout of members of
the order ever seen in West Virginia.
At the Park there will be exercises
and sports of various kinds. Grand
Overseer Dooley and other speakers
will make addresses. There will be a
bowling competition for a handsome
prize, among teams selected from each
lodge. One of the most amusing fea-
lures will be pie eating contest
among colored boys especially selected
because of their appetites for pastry.
There will be dancing in the Casino
afternoon and night.

TOM DALY's CAREER.

A strange tale is that Of Tom Days
base ball life. Ten years ago, or the
spring after the return from Europe of
the Spaiding globe trotters, DAILY was
released from the Chicago clrb and was
on the hunt for JOB till the base bah
season Of 1889 was half over; then he
was signed by Arthur Irwin for Walter
Hewiu's Washington league team.
Days catching that season surpassed
the work Of any back stop in the lea
que, barring, perhaps, Buck Ewing.
Tom was signed for the following
season by the Brooklyn league club and
had a $4,000 contract with that team.
His arm weakened. and Brooklyn fin
ally released him TO the Milwaukee
team OF the Western League. This
downfall of Toms was regarded as his
final passing, but he has taken upon
himself new lease OF base ball life
and, as second bagman for Hanlon q
Superbas, his superb Unfolding Is one OF
the many brilliant points of play OF the
Hanlonites.

AN OLD BILL
Was Settled by Customer After the Lapse
of n Quarter of Century.

l.. Swabacker, the Main street mIlliner.
had an experience which was rather
unique during the past week. A Martins
Ferry lady, who purchased goods for her
wedding outfit a quarter Of century ago,
upon credit, called and insisted upon set
Ting the bill which had ben forgotten
years ago. Mr.. Swabackers declined to
accept payment after hearing the wom-
ans story, and II was only after she In
sisted that her conscience would net be
satisfied, that he agreed to take a modest
sum for the account. The matter was
first brought TO Mr.. Swabackers attention
by the following self-explanatory letter
MARTINS FERRY, May H. 1890
Mr. Swabacker.
Dear Sir:-Have you any old bills
against any of your customers of twenty
years ago? / SUPPOSE not, but about that
time your mother trusted me for a few
articles. and L am heartily sorry and
ashamed 70 tell you that in all that time
/ have never felt abe TO pay the debt.
But now l have a little money which my
boys have earned, and ! desire TO pay it.
Unfortunately, have no bill OF the goods.
but remember some, perhaps not all:

Charles Cameron. who is well known
as prison reformer, said to repre-

The Maybrick case is one OF the
planks of our society's platform and
now that Sir Matthew White Briley,
Secretary of State to the Home De-
partment. is reviving the case by Lord
Salisbury's direction and through the
pressure of the American government,
exerted through their excellent ambas-
sador, it will only be matter of very
short time, in nay opinion, before her
unconditional release. Until then this
strong society will never cease to back
sup all efforts in that direction"
