New Orleans Iimes-Demce-st le-

Eonto a few years ago. Lonergan
made an enemy as the result OF the
Incident, for the prop man never
quite forgave him for what he did

mid it was a bloody outrage and he
could not be convinced that 1t was
mything less than a personal insult
Lonergan was playing in 'Dayy
Crockett at Toronto theater, and IN
the title role. the same role taken by
him in Mayo's play here. You will
recall the stage setting in the second
sct, the interior Of the lodge, the
wolves on the outside, and SO forth.
The wolves stick their heads through
the little holes near the floor on one
sde Of the log hut. ItwAs the wolves
that caused the trouble in Toronto,
Mthough Lonergan never intended
anything Of a serious nature. Il |
remember correctly the wolves inthe
play are supposed to be lean and hun
gry, and hence ferooious and raven
Ons. But the brand used in Toronto

aaring, CLASSY eyes, red tongues anC
all that kind Of thing. The property
man had gone to a great deal Of trou

course, there is nothing to the wolye
used in this scene but the heads. Th
heads are simply put on the ends Q

perate dash for the door in order t
keep the wolves out, throwing him

down at the floor he saw the heads

tongues aggravated him somewha
and he thought he would add a touc
of realism to the scene. Blazinga awe
With one Of his feet, and as hard as
could drive it, he kicked at one of Il
wolf heads. The head was crush'
like an egg she'll. A few pieces
painted paper fell over on the sta.
near the footlights. Behind t
wings Lonergan could hear above t
cheers Of the audience a few 81
phuric utterances dropped by t
property man, who was in a perfe
rage Pushing up to L6nergan aft

be quieted. Heneverliked Lonerg

NEW DODGE IN BEGGING.
One of the Tricks Prasticed by City
Street Mendicants.


Street Mendicants.
Ideas count for success, even In
street begging. Old tricks become
tiresome through familiarity. The
mendicant Of the present day, ii he
would live well, must get something
new. One OF the latest lodges Of the
New York solicitor Of aims is heroic.
1t first arouses the Indignation Of the
victim, then pacifies him, and finally
wins his sympathy and his money. 1t
is worked in this way: A shabby at
tired man hurries along the street ap-
parently unconscious Of his sur
roundings. He expectorates, as
though by chance, on to the well-pol-
ished shoe Of a passer-by. Before the
man has time to protest, the mendi-
cant drops on his knees and, with thC
remnants Of a well-worn handker
chief, rubs away at the soiled shoe
meanwhile pouring forth profus'
apologies. Nine times out Of ten HI
gets dime for his politeness.--N

Condition Of Grain and Grass
Crops.

SilOs are being filled as rapidly
as possible in this section in or
der to minimize the loss resulting
from the cool wave. The fodder
has been saved in fine condition
except in the localities where per-
sistent drought had fired the
blades. The week has been very
favorable for work in the corn
fields, and much was accom-
pliShed. Late fields are still
green in many districts, and in
lowlands the crop is ripeniug I'M
evenly. Wheat seeding made
some progress during the week,
many farmers running their drills
in dusty fields. The light rains
towards the end of the week will
enable additional advance in the
drier districts, while work was
suspended on their arrival in the
localities where the rains of the
week preceding had been heaviest.
On the whole but little of the
wheat crop has been put in yet,
and considerable blowing remains
to be done. Pastures are very
poor and short over the northern
and western parts of the section,
but east and south some improve
ment has been observed. Very
little clover seed was cut in the
west. Pea hay has given short
yields in the southeast. The fall
sOwings of grass seed have been
favored by the gentle rains Just
received and. with a little adj
ditional moisture in the near fu-
ture, should germilate we'll.

A HARD TEST ROAD.
Stretch of 100 Feet Of Stag
Laid by Eastern Shore Farm
erS.

The first attempt at modern
road construction on the Eastern
Shore has terminated in success
beyond the dreams of the project
ors of the enterprise. On the
public thoroughfare leading from
Centreville to CheStertown, about
two miles from the latter place,
was stretch of road 800 0 yards
in length, which at certain sea
sons of the year became impaSs-
able. Farmers in the upper sec
tion of the county who use that
portion of the road determined
to take some measures by which
the road would he rendered in
better condition for travelling.
Under the leadership Of Mr.. w.
Irving Walker. a leading farmer
near Church Hill. a petition was
made to the County Commission
ers to appropriate $500 for i'm
proving the road The Commits.
sioners granted the petition and
Mr.. n. A. Johnson, State High
way Engineer, volunteered his
services. The farmers along the
Improvement furnished the labor.
1t was decided to use Stag which
was procured from the Sparrows
Point steel works. 1t is conSid-
cred the most available and most
durable substance which can be
used OH Eastern Shore roads.
Weathering hardens it. Mixed
with fine earth it becomes an i'm
penetrable cement. The longer
it is exposed the harder it be-
comes. The length of the new
improvement is about 100 feet;
its width is 10. Ten inches of
Stag were laid upon the crown of
the road and seven inches on the
sides, and 500 tons of Stag were
used. According to the engineers
report the total cost of Stag was
Slab per ton. Mr.. w. living
Walker has advised that the
county issue bonds for 500, 600,
which is the amount expended on
roads in ten years, and improve
all roads in the county. The mat
ter is being discussed throughout
the entire county.

A Young Housewives Request


Written for the Citizen.
If | had not passed through Just
such an experience as the young
housewife has had. perhaps my
heart would not 90 ont to her
with so much sympathy, but to
break a piece of your first set of
French China is something to be
sorry for. OF course. we learn as
years 60 by to be more philoSoph-
zeal. | am glad you wrote to me
to send to the CITIZEN a cement
for mending your broken China,
or for help, if there was any, as
You read that paper carefully and
wish to preserve the recipe 1t
mends China firmly and so nicely
that no one could tell it unless
reminded of it, and is as follows:
Simply mix plaster of Paris and
a strong solution of gum-arabic
together until it forms a thick
paste, unite the broken edges
with small brush (camel's hair
paint brush), putting enough ce-
ment on to hold the edges firmly,
and set away to dry. When it is
necessary to wash them, do not
use soap, but make a warm suds
of rain water and pearline, and
handle very gently; rinse in clear
warm water and wipe dry on an
old soft linen cloth and polish
with tissue paper.
