For some time he had been very attentive

remarked upon his devotion, he had not
come to the point of proposing. But as
they sat behind the scenes he felt that an
opportune moment had arrived, and after
vainly casting his eyes in the direction of
the ceiling for inspiration he turned to her.

Gossip of Duse.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
The eccentricities of genuius as evidenced
by the saying and actions of Eleanor Duse,
are at the present time again interesting
the foreign theatrical correspondents, pos
sibly because the lady contemplates a tour
of this country next season.
AS the statement is printed, she hates
everything theatrical Never is a member
of her company admitted to her dressing
room, or her apartments at the hotel. Lv-
ing in her own world, she wants to know
nothing of outside The influence of the
box office the repertoire she styles hell
ish chains Of theatrical slavery 1t irri-
tates her to meet a member of her troupe
on the way to the dressing room, or on the
street.
At Stuttgart she slammed the door in the
face of royal master of ceremony.
What do you want?' she cried.
His majesty is following. May he come
IN"
He canpot Tell him 1 am Obliged for
the intended honor. But my dressing room
is my castle"
Pray, consider, madame; 1 may lose my
head by taking refusal
Don't take it, then. Just tell his ma
eSty that l won't commence to dress for the
second act until he sits in his box
Some days., said the great actress Sec
rotary, madame can't make conversation
at all, nor must a word be spoken within
hearing distance of her. On such occasions
the ordinary human voice cuts her like a
knife
A critic. it is said. thought Duse had
improved in looks since her last appearance
and told D'Annunzio so by way of compli-
mant.
"Pshaw!' he replied, madame has her
own ideas regarding beauty or the opposite
on the stage Whether the artist be Young
or old, beautiful or ugly, is immaterial, she
thinks Her value as an actress depends
solely on her culture, on her ability to in
terpret the poets intentions The manifes-
tations of her genius alone will live after
her."
