HARRY C0RSON CLARKE.

There is much talk nowadays OF the
actor OF the old school az compared with
the actor OF the new. The old-fashioned
play-goers clamor for the sincerity and
intensity OF the actors who have gone;
the younger generation uphoids the mod
ern player. with his naturalness. his ac-
curacy. and the splendor OF the SUR
roundings of the modern stage. IL Is
controversy that will never end. But once
I'm n while an actor arises who combines
the sincerity OF the old regime with the
outward display OF the new-and such an
actor is Harry Corson Clarke. He was
born To his profession. The grandson OF
Corson W. Clarke, stage manager of Bar
NUNS Museum I'm the palmy days and
the son OF Mrs. Adele Clarke, who learn
ed her art from Edwin Forrest. Charlotte
Cushman. Il. l.. Davenport and Edwin
Booth. could not but reflect many of the
virtues OF the old fashion of acting. From
his early boyhood Mr.. Clarke has been
associated with the theatre-first as ad-
vance agent. then as business manager.
and finally as actor-manager. He made
the important step from the business de-
partment OF the theatre TO the stage I'm
1884 when he took part in Shook & Col
lier's notable production of Lights o
London" Immediately afterward he was
engaged by Maud Granger. with whom he
toured for n season I'm repertoire. Next
he played in the initial production or
George Fawcett Rowe's play, Beauty,
at Wallacks Theatre. New York, and his
work there led TO his engagement TO play
the Stage Manager i'm MAN zelle." In
this eccentric comedy role-the first OF
the sort that he had essayed, Mr.. Clarke
found the field for the display of his best
talents. He has devoted himself almost
exclusively TO eccentric comedy roles ever
since.
For several years i'm stock companies.
and during this period he accomplished
the Unparalleled feat of playing two hum
dred and fifty different eccentric comedy
roles in two hundred and fifty consccu-
tive weeks
Mr.. Clarke made his first venture as
star I'm What Happened to Jones' Wit
his own company he toured for three
seasons i'm that capital comedy. In the
spring and summer OF 1900 What Did
Tompkins Do?" was written. and II so
pleased Mr.. Clarke that he at once ac-
cepted il and prepared to produce 1t
without delay.
Mr. Clarke has been passing the sum
mer at Oakland Beach, but leaves today
for California and Honolulu. A year from
the coming fall he Will open his season
in Providence.

THE CHURCHMAN IN POLITICS.
Ihs Gossip.

The man who holds 20 the church
should not refuse 10 serve on the juries
Of the city; the man who contributes TO
the church should not be a dodger OF the
tax which he owes to the city; the man
who Is always at the church service
should with equal regularity appear at
the primary: and as between the primary
and the prayer-meeting, the primary
should take the precedence. should they
fall upon the same day. The man who
has an opinion about the salvation of the
soul should have some conviction about
the benefit TO the bodies OF his fellow
citizens. The man who houses himself i'm
a beautiful temple should not refuse to
serve on a tenement-house commission.
The man who claims 90 understand what
theological exactness requires should
have an opinion upon the charter by
which the city IL governed: and IL II
should happen that the mayor OF the city,
it's board OF councilmen, its heads OF de-
partments, are all or any OF them unfit
TO represent the righteousness for which
the church stands. Il ought 20 be at the
same time proof that they are unfit TO
represent the best interests OF the city,
which is maintained by righteousness or
else declines.-From Relation OF the

AN ORIENTAL DAINTY-SYRUP OF
ROSES.
A lady who lived for many years In
Damascus gives the following recipe for
an Oriental dainty which is common in
that ancient city:
Cut the roses I'm full bloom. pull out the
petals and spread on a tray to prevent
mildew. Keep cutting the roses of and
spreading the petals out until there Is
enough for a jar or a tumbler of preserve,
II you can do up only small quantity.
Then put the rose leaves into preserve
kettle. with water, cover and cook TIL
tender. Add sugar and boil until IL forms
a syrup. Pour into jelly jars. In Damas-
Gus this is served I'm small cups and
passed around on silver trays for visitors
To partake OF.

ding sauce or the batter for delicate cake.
and the English or American residents OF
Damascus have added Il TO mince meat
with happy results, a peculiarly delicate
flavor being thus impaired to the pie.
THE FALL FASHIONS.
Although we have only entered upon
the hottest month in the year, and au-
tumn seems afar Off, the modistes are all
ready making plans as TO what we shall
wear i'm fall One of the most important
changes we are assured, will be In skirts
for street wear. These. II IL now stated,
will be worn not only round and without
any train effects, but will escape the
ground by at least two or three inches.
At the latest the coming winter will see
introduction OF this fashion.
Certainly any woman OF an observing
disposition cannot fail to see the hold the
abbreviated skirt has taken upon femi-
ninity i'm general. once IL was worn al
most solely by the bicyclist; then by the
golf girl; now members Of the short
skirted sisterhood are to be met I'm the
mountains by the seaside. In rural lanes
and on city streets.
This does not mean that dresses with
trains will be entirely abandoned, for
the short train will be retained I'm dressy
toilets for evening wear. The trailing
gown Is really very graceful and gener-
ally becoming, and there seems some sense
and proprlety I'm adopting IL for the
dance, dinner. opera or reception.
A great many suits will be made with
double skirts-one for street wear and the
other for "at home" The former will
clear the ground all around and will be
finished off I'm the height OF style, either
plainly or deliberately tailored. while the
latter will he trimmed with nornces and
show n luxurlant flare at the bottom.
The wool goods for the earlier fall are
broadcloths, vicunas, camel's' hairs. SER

THEATRICAL NOTES.

1t is almost impossible to imagine
Foxy Quiller" Sykes playing heavy
villain In straight" dramatic produc-
tion, but he once did it for two seasons,
supporting Newton Beers In "Enoch
Arden and a repertoire. This was just
before he and Punch Wheeler foated
the Alcazar opera company. with which
they had numerous adventures in Texas
and Mexico. Playing 'Enoch Arden" in
a Kansas town. they found the theatre
had no sea-drop backing for the wreck
scene. The company carried sea-cloth
but no drop. AS a last resort they had
to work the sea-cloth against a backing
of kitchen fats. Every time the light
ming flashed IL revealed the wreck oc-
curing inside a kitchen. Mr.. Sykes said
he was too much I'm earnest TO realize IL
then. but the performances of that COM
pany were funnier than any farce comedy
ever staged.

actor who will play the leading charac-
ter in support of Blanche Walsh In Eu-
gene Presbrey's new play next serson.
has had very eventfui carer

born I'm Marietta. Ohio. Before he was
twelve years of age he ran away to sea,
and was ships boy before the mast for
three years, ending his career as sailor
with an eleven months cruise on a whaier
I'm Aleutian waters. Then he went to
Tom Kings famous horse ranch In Eu-
senada, Lower California, and figured as
a "broncho buster for a year.
His advent on the stage was made at
the old California theatre in San Francis
co I'm Mckee Rankin's stock company. He
followed this engagement az n stock actor
with Osborne & Stockwell at the Alcazar
theatre in San Francisco. Then he Joined
Mrs. ID. +. Bowers and presented scenes

elizabeth" and ner repertoire, and went
to Mexico with hermann, the magician
as his assistant.
After various experiences in "jobbing'
engagements, he Joined the company OF
Augustus Daily i'm New York, I'm 1883. and
remained with him ten seasons. leaving
him to become Julia Marlowe's leading
man. He played stock season with
blanche Walsh In .S9s, In Denver. At that
time she told him that when she became
star he would be her leading man. Last

of the stock company playing at the Pike
theatre i'm Cincinnati.
Mr.. Bosworth is spending the present
summer on mile-long island he owns In

He keeps three horses, among them the
noted racer, BLACK Squirrel and a 36-
foot sloop yacht. Here he enjoys his sum-
mer VACATION with all the diversions OF a
country gentleman.

Skirtdom look very much like the habit
back which was the prevailing model OF
'9S. Foreign influence is largely in favor
OF a continuance Of a habit-back skirt.
A number OF the new skirts show that
a favored method of trimming viii be
the use of panels. The trimmings OF lace
show this as much as anything else. for
the skirts are slashed at the side to show
the panels OF lace or of some different
material or down the front breadth IL

This seems to he compromise for not
