A SOCIETY GIRL ON THE STAGE
DEBUT OF MISS DOROTHY STUART.
SISTER OF THE POPULAR
JANE STUART.

The New York stage has a new as
pirant in the person of Miss Dollie Hol-
ahan, who made her debut recently with
some success at the Murray Hill theater.
Miss Holahan is the daughter of Maurice
president Of the board of public
improvements of New York city. She is
a pretty girl and a young woman of some
social experience, though her extreme
youth has prevented her, as yet, from
making her debut in the social ranks.
where her family have long held a place.
Miss Holahan is only seventeen years
old. but, being gifted with stage talent
and a desire to take to the boards her
family allowed her to seek the life she
longs for.
The stage name which Miss Holahan
takes is Dorothy Stuart.
Some years ago, a sister of Miss Hol-
ahan WENT upon the stage under the name
of Jane Stuart, and was the popular
leading lady of William H. Cranes com.
pany for several years. Jane Stuart re-
tired to become the wife of Louis Auer
of milwaukee, wipere she is now living the
center of a happy home consisting of an
adoring husband and -four lovely chill
dren.
I'm sure Dollie will make a success
OF it." said her sister, Mrs. Auer, to
a reporter. "She is a born ~comedienne
and has a vo:ce which VIII eventually
Lead her into opera. 1t was through my
influence that papa and m yielded
to Dollie's entreaties and consented to
her choice of the stage as a profession

best-paid professional whistlers.

Everything all right. Goodbye"
! held the instrument in my hand and
debated with myself upon my course
OF l did not want to needlessly
send the alarm along the line. On the
other hand, why had Dick sent his first
message. l touched the instrument and
asked, is everything all right, Dick ?'
And the answer came back, Everything
is all right
It did not seem at all like Dicks touch,
but I laid it to nervousness and quieted
my fears while I waited for the run
away"
I recalled that Dick had told me over
the wire the previous evening that the
runaway" would have a large sum of
money aboard, which it was to transfer
to the express at his station.
When the runaway came up / notifed
the engineer hat the express was waiting
for him at Lakeville, and / also casually
mentioned the alarm that had come
from there; but that afterwards I had
received a message that all was well.
He seemed disturbed and advised me
to repeat the story to the United States
marshal aboard, which I did. with the re-
suit that the train pulled out Of the sta
ton prepared for emergencies, though
the hasty message that had been flashed
to me.
Ten minutes later this message came
over the wires from Lakeville: Found

powered them after a desperate struggle.

where poor Dick lay with crushed SKULL.
What are you going to do?" I asked,
after we had stood there in silence.
Give myself up, now. I suppose" said
he: there is no other way"
The next day the whole country was
ringing with the strange confession OF
President Croydon. He made a clean
breast of it and was SO manly and sim
cere in his repentance that nobody was
sorry when his sentence was placed at
a term of imprisonment, instead of the
death penalty which is SO summarily

One day, CHANGING to sit at the in.

Die who had sat at that same spot

that reply that SO fascinated me? Or
vas 1T the anniversary Of poor Dicks
death that made me fanciful?
That afternoon the president came
down to the station ON business, and

Dick Ramsey and 1 had one west to
make our fortunes. What that means
none but an eastern boy who has tried
it can tell.
We roughed 1T together, sometimes
Airing we'll when we happened to fall
into the camp Of a hospitable westerner,
but more often tramping it from village
to village looking for the work which
was newer found and wondering when we
should strike our streak of luck.
Finally we separated, Dick to take
the position of station agent at Lake.
Vile, a new settlement, / to go ON to
Riverdale, ten miles beyond, to hold a
similar position. We could talk by wire,
but we found that further communica-
tion would be impossible, for we were
Well tied down and, after our separa-
ton did not see each other again.
DICK was a gentle sort Of fellow, one
of those dreamers Who never get on in
q worldly way, but the dearest COM
panion Imaginable. I missed him ter
ruby for awhile, but his occasional talk
at the wire told me he was alive and
well.
One afternoon there came a frantic
call at the wire and I hurried to the
instrument to hear Dick tapping off the
words that the express train had baen
delayed and to hold the runaway due
at my station ten minutes later, until I
heard from him. Directly after the mes
sage came the line Express train in
sight. Something wrong. Stand by" I
waited a full minute, hen came Dicks
familiar tap-tap: Express Is being run
by strange hands. They have stopped at
this station. Send relief"
There we're a seconds silence; then. be-
fore I could flash the alarm along the
line, the tapping began again. It ran:

I signaled for him to repsat the mes

tim he came, it was almost dark, and
L heard him send his coachman home,
telling him that ne would follow soon on

For half an o the president busted
himself around the station, a most un-

away IN the direction of the ch%urchyard,
a journey which I often took myself.
Scarcely realizing what 1 was doing

after him. What excuse I would make
II he turned and saw me I knew not. I
only understood that some force was pull

To my surprise he turned the corner as
he reached the church and plodding his
