THE TRAGEDIAN AND THE EGG.

F 4
 Sir Henry Irving is exceedingly fond of eggs. Tn my pound-aweek days, said he, there were often times when I had to choose between the needs of the outer and of the inner man. One such period was when I was assigned a part that called for pair of trousers of a new and expensive pattern. Nothing in my scanty wardrobe would answer; : credit I didn't have, and my fellow actors couldn't help me. sat down and carefully figured out the situation. After much thought, l found that, by dint of the closest econ omy, including partial starvation, l could buy the needed garment in three weeks time. This would answer my purpose, if did not die of hamilton in the interval. With the aid of more figures, I found that diet of eggs and bread was the cheapest, and, pfesum- ably, the most nourishing. But l could, afford only one egg a day. l bought weeks supply, divided each egg with a longitudinal pencil-line, and ate down to the line at breakfast, and below it at dinner I survived, got the trousers, made more or less of hit, and, from about that period, began a more or less popular career. Do you wonder, then, that feel so kindly toward the egg, which stood me in such good stead at that critical june ture.-Success.

A Bold Reporter.

Reporters sometimes report speeches they do not hear and bad work they make of it. An enthusiastic Irishman was once hoaxed by wag to reporting a speech in parliament by Edmund Burke on the merits of the potato as an article of diet. The wag reported the speech apparently from his notes, and the reporter, never doubting his good faith, handed in report. The next morning all London was laughing over the speech, which made MT. Burke at. tribute the superior virtue of the Irish people to the fact that they eat so many potatoes.
 Another reporter fared better who made up speech from his own imagi- nation. It was bold act, for the speech was from the throne, George III being the monarch. The ministers were indignant at his impotence and were eager to punish him with the severest penalties of the law. But the good na- tured monarch interposed with quiet joke at the expense of the minister who had prepared the speech read by the king. T hope the mans punish 'ment will be of the mildest sort, said King George, sbecause I have read both, and, So far as I can understand either of them, I like the reporters speech better than my own."

Animal Resistance to Cold.

It is saying too much to use the word "animal' without restriction in this connection. We must limit ourselves to those of low organism. It is certain that fishes and insects, especially CO., leoptera; or beetles, may be quite fro- zen, remain in the ice for a long time and yet. come out of the trial as good as new. All that is necessary is to take Q little precaution as to the manner of their thawing out.
 A naturalist announced that he froze four beetles of the sort known as dy- tiscidR, water beetle, in shallow ba- sin. They were very thoroughly fro zen, and when after eight full days the experimenter decided to iberate them from their icy case, which had begun to thaw, one wing and two legs imper- fectly thawed broke the glass. On the ninth day the ice had entirely disap- peared, and the prisoners foated inert on the water. But after ten hours life began to show itself in them, which proved that it had been but suspended. The beetles moved their legs and an- tenne, and on the next day they swan about as usual and did honor to the re- past offered tha,n.

Why don't the manufacturers of Wa terbury make some official statement in regard to their position on the strike question? It would seem to us as though they owe this to the people or the city as we'll as to the strikers. In other places the manufacturers have allowed 1t to be printed that they will not under any circumstances recognize the union. In Waterbury some of the employers have said this, some have said nothing and others act as though they were willing to grant some con sessions, and might grant all if some of their fellow employers would do likewise. It would help matters very much if the employers would give through the newspapers statement of just what they are willing to do. Such a statement, we believe, would go far towards settling the strike and restor- ing confidence.

pected. Aside from this factor, how ever, the situation is generally satis- factory. Speculation has been reduced within safer limits, and the decline in stock exchange transactions causes no concern to those who prefer steady up-building of values to a skyrocket advance and corresponding drop after wards This diminution in transactions was chiefly due to elimination of 8 reckless speculative element, which had become a dangerous feature ill the market. This party was so badly punished at the time of the Northern Pacific panic, that they are not likely 10 be a factor again for some time to come Money is easy and promises to remain SO: railroad earnings and industrial earnings are large; crop prospects are satisfactory in spite of backward season; genreal business is fairly active and the whole country is still in the enjoyment of prosperity. The only disturbance at present is the prospect of labor troubles; but so long as fair and reasonable spirit prevails on both sides no serious trouble is ex- pected there. As the summer approach es and the large holders lessen their operations for the purposes of rest and pleasure, we may look for diminished activity in stocks; though in these days of telephone and telegraph such re- suits do not necessarily follow. For the time being We expect professional market. After the panic a period of rest is required until new buying element comes in. Prices may exhibit slight sagging tendency, but on sharp declines the market will probably be a purchase There are still many important negotiations in contempla- tion which will compel support in event cf any pronounced weakness.

There are some queer stories being told around Washington about at tempts to manipulate the report of the Isthmian canal commission, which is expected to be completed in five or six weeks. The preliminary report which was sent to congress last winter, it will be remembered. was strongly in favor of the Nicaragua route for the Canal According to these stories, attempts are being made to have the full report mod fly the declarations in favor of the Nicaragua route so as to make it ap- pear that the commission regards the Nicaragua and Panama routes as equal ly feasible, from an engineering point of view, and to get something into the report about the alleged political dis advantages of the former. All the members of the commission are gentle men of honorable standing as we'll as is not believed for moment that they will knowingly allow themselves to be used by the Panama lobby in any such manner. The commission is already committed to the engineering adyan- tages of the Nicaragua route, and with the political aspect they have nothing whatever to do, and for them to even touch upon it in their report would be not only bad taste but going outside of their duties.

It begins to look as though there was truth in the story of the administra- ton having succeeded in having the decision of the United States court in the insular cases held back until next fall, because of it's being adverse to the Mckinley policy. The court will adjourn Monday until October. It may hand down the insular decision that day, but if it does it will surprise men who are usually we'll posted about such things, and odds have been freely of fered, without takers, that it will not.

SWAPPING STORIES.

The late Edwin Booth and Lawrence Barrett were close personal friends of Stuart Robson. During the ''off'' sea- son of affairs theatrical, Robson often entertained his distinguished col leagues at his summer home on Long Island. On one such occasion, the trio after dinner took their seats on the piazza, when Booth, as usual, lapsed into silent reverie, while the others began to relate stories anent profes- sional experiences. Finally, the con- versation turned on ''deadheads.' Robson had just finished an especially funny tale about one of these mana gerial "bete noirs," when the deep voice of Booth was heard, thus:-
 T think, gentlemen, that can give you an anecdote about one of the tribe that is probably unique.''
 Let's hear it, Edwin, by all means y said Barrett.
 Booth fixed his sombre eyes on the sunset, and began: Tt was dur ing the first visit that I made to the south after the close of the civil war. We were playing in little town in Alabama. Tn my mail, one morning, I found letter which ran something like this:-
 Dear Sir:-My wife and self have always been great admirers of you. We want to see you play very much, but cannot afford to buy our tickets. Will you please send us couple of seats? I am sure you will not re- fuse this request when tell you that am the United States soldier that shot and killed your brother, who as- sassinated President Lincoln.
 T investigated and found that the mans statement was correct
 Booths auditors gasped as his trag- ic tones boomed out the unexpected sequel to the tale. There was dead silence for a full minute. Then Rob- son managed to ask
 What did you do, Edwin ?'
 sI sent him the tickets answered the actor, his eyes, still fixed on the glowing western horizon.
 The grewsome recital had been made without a trace of emotion, save for a deepening of the gloom which marked Booths facial expres- sion from the day of the tragedy. Robson told the writer that the actor unquestionably realized that if his brother had reached Washington alive he would have met a terrible fate at the hands of the mob, and hence he felt grateful to the man who, with a rifle ball. averted this possibility.

The pooh bah of the army and the idol of pink teas, officially known as Adjutant General Corbin, has scored again. He will go a-junketing to the Philippines, and he will go clothed with authority to make any cRanges in quartering or providing for the soldiers that he may see fit without referring them to Washington for approval thority which properly belongs only to the commander of the army, and which, as a matter of facr, general Miles has never been allowed to ex- ercise. It is announced that General Corbin is to go to the Philippines as the personal representative of MT Me Kinley and Secretary Root; that he is charged by the latter with the duty of arranging cheap scheme for the main tenance of the army in the Philippines, which can be put in the annual report of the secretary of war in the shape of recommendation for congressional action, and by the former with the task of finding out anything that can be made use of in his annual message to congress. Wonderful man, that fellow, Corbin! If he had not got into the army, society, and politics he might have made first-class confidence man. When it comes to persuading somebody over him to give him what he wants he never fails.
