The high ball was invented by Colonel
H. I. Ball of Kentucky, and was named
after him. Some authorities, notably
Fizz IN his Modern Drinks and Drink
ers'' and AIlxem in his Ancient and Mod

so named because the effect upon the per-
son drinking many of chem is that Of a
person who was to be knocked like a bali

word is not taken by the best authori-
ties on the subject. Professor +. Ken
nedy claims to have personally known
the late lamented Colonel II. I. Bail and
to have been with him upon the historic
occasion when the high ball was invented.
The high ball is made in a tumbler. A
small instrument known as a jigger Is
needed to measure the various liquors
which go to make up the high ball After
a certain quantity of liquor is placed in
the tumbler a stream of water highly
charged with carbonic acid gas is fired
into 1t and the resultant composition )
then drank with great relish The effect
OF one high ball IS not marked, but sew

A writer in the London St. James

how the actor-manager system, which
is responsible for so many of our pres
ent ills, does not seem to bring out the
best talent available among our rising
and even our risen actresses. Can It
be that managers have a pardOnabie
preference for leading ladies' who do
not too much outshine them in their
art2 It is a shocking suggestion. But
il cannot be denied that some of our
cleVerest actresses seem to suffer under
an inexplicable neglect, while Tar less
competent performers are allowed TO
usurp the place in their profession
which they should rightly occupy. IN
deed, the only chance for an actress OF
commanding talent nowadays seems 10
be to go into management on ner own
account It is true that the cares OF
management are apt to stunt the
growth Of that talent and prevent us
reaching the maturity which II might
have attained under more faVOrdDIe
