Capt Brown was damaged about the
decks late yesterday afternoon, while load
ing lumber at the Central Railroad
wharves. The timber being loaded is
that brought from Darien by the tug Nep-
tune The umbers are fifty feet long
While being holsted to the decks the
graphing hooks and hosting apparatus
became unmauageable. which allowed a
timber to swing amidships, damaging the
plot house, steering gear, breaking com
pass and two ventilators, and doing other
damage about the deck. Capt. Brown en-
gagged Kehoe & Sons to make the neces-
sary repairs and as 1t is desired not to
delay the vessel If possible the firm put
a force of hands aboard her shortly after
the damage was done II is stated che
damage will be between $500 and $500

What the actors do besides speaking
the words of the play is called the "pusl-

sert that word in the copy at points
where special action was required Inc
particulars were given at the rehearsals
Nowadays the author is more explicit in
his manuscript. He prescribes the move
ments that each character shall make,
Nothing is left to chance, nor to the ac-
tors choice. When he is to sit and when
to stand when he is to go and how long
to stay. what feeling he is to show when
silent what degree of emotion he is to
express when speaking-all these direc-
tions are set down. Some authors tell,
also, how the personages should look. a
paragraph describes each individual much
as a novelist does 1t, though very briefly
and concisely. This is frequently extend

case his contracts stipulate that not so
much as a word shall be changed without
his consent The manner of the acting,
also, must be obedlent to his orders He
also may be able to dictate the time when
the play shall be presented, and the the
