HE SAW THE SHOW.
A Stranger Who Outwitted the Attaches of
the Grand.

When the curtain was going up on the
first act of THE Ivy Leaf" at the Grand
Opera House last night, two strangers
appeared at the box office window. One
of the men, who negotiated for tickets,
when told the scale of prices, asked:
Whereabouts are the quarter seats?'
''Just inside the door, was the reply.
where's your diagram?"
Destroyed, sir, a few moments ago"
why in the h-l don't you have a new
diagram, Them"
The ticket seller caught Whit of Bell
are whiskey, and winked significantly
at the blue-c coated preserver of order, and
restrainer of the gallary gods, who stood
in the LOBBY of the theatre. The officer
placed his hand with an affectionate touch
upon the shoulder of the disturber, and
remarked in a sweetly persuasive way
Come on, me buckle, ye can't see this
show tonight
He led him to the sidewalk, the stran-
ger demonstrating all the while, and pro-
testing that he was not intoxicated.
''WeNl, 1 come a good ways to see this
show he said, land I'm goin' to see it
Not if I get me eyes on ye first" was
the rejonder of the Celtic representative
of the constabulary.
A consultation was held on the side
walk by the two strangers. Ten minutes
later the sober man bought a ticket and
went inside. The other fellow put two
settlers under his belt and went into a
tonsorial establishment near by, where
his mustache and goatee were shaved off
He presented himself at the ticket win
dow in this disguise, got ticket. joined
his friend inside. and saw part of the
production. Tt was a rather expensive
piece of work from any standpoint, but
the stranger got his revenge.

INDUSTRIAL NOTES

Contrary to expectations Vice-Presi-
dent A. B. Carter, of the Belllaire Steel
Company, failed to arrive home yester-
day from Chicago, at which city he has
been for a few days past engaged in
transacting the final business matters
appertaining to the transfer of the en-
tire stock of the Bellaire steel plant
into the possession Of the National
Steel Company. However, Mr.. Carter
is expected to arrive in the city from
Chicago some time to-day. There is
much speculation as to how the differ
ent Bellaire stockholders will invest
the large sums of money derived from
the selling out of their stock. 1t is
not known at present how many of the
Bellaire stockholders will purchase
stock in the National Steel Company,
but it has been stated by one CONVEX
SAINT with all the matters relating to
the transfer, that a few Bellaire stock
holders at least have expressed their in
tentions of doing so.

The report now in circulation to the
effect that the Stewart and Enterprise
Enameling Companies of Bellaire in
tend to become a part of the National
Enameling and Stamping Company, OF
New York, has not been confirmed by
either company. However, it is safe
to say that both companies are contem-
plating taking such action, and that all
that is preventing an early movement
in this direction are some unsatisfac-
tory stipulations offered in the negotia-
tons. 1t may be said that the parties
concerned in the matter are hopeful
that an agreement in the negotiations
will be reached some time in the near
future. The Stewart Enameling Com
pany in an interview yesterday would
not verify the report. but nevertheless
there may be some new developments
in the now pending deal within the next
six days.
