When the conversation reverted to
the eccentricities of country 'Froh-

opera house manager. Happy Cal
told one himself that isn't half bad.
"On one occasion, while playing
through the west" said Wagner, 1--WE
had booked q one-night stand in Cali
fornia to break a long railroad jump.
Our business had been very large and
we naturally expected that when we
fOrsook the big cities to bring our en-
tertainment to the 'Opry' house of the
jub-jub town we would fill the little
place to overlooking. When the cur
tain rolled up that delusion was quick
ly dissipated. After the first part 1 re-
moved my makeup and went out to
the box office to count up.
well, how is it2'' I remarked, just
by way of being agreeable to the young
man who acted as treasurer for the
house.
'Fust rate he said, best of the
season. Why, there's at least $50 in the
house
Il didn't enthuse, which may have
surprised him. but he finished making
out the box Office statement and passed
it over to me for verification. In look
ing it over I discovered that he had
made a mistake in addition, thereby
crediting me with $1.15 more than my
share of the receipts called for.

ct only goes to show what big
hearted people the theatrical men and
women are said a visiting manager
the other day as he glanced over the
news item that told of the quick re-
sponses to the call for aid for Georgia
Cayyan. the once beautiful woman
and brilliant actress, who is now in a
sanitarium near New York City.
I do not care to be quoted in the
matter" continued the speaker, but I
have been in several professions, but
nowhere do you see such immediate
response to a worthy appeal for help
as you see in the theatrical business.
had never thought that Miss Cayvan
was in need until this movement was
taken up, but / am sure that the tes-
timOnial benefit for her will be one of
the grandest successes that our stage
has ever known. Georgia Cayvan was
a warm hearted woman. and herself
contributed to many calls for charity.
Her life was partly wrecked by most
unfortunate mistake, for she was
wrongfully made the correspondent in
a divorce proceeding that the testi-
mOny showed was absolutely without
foundation, so far as she was con-
cerned. The lesson of that terrible
mistake caused a new law to be en-
acted in New York. making it illegal
to give publicity to the names of CO.
respondents in such cases; and though
it will have a grand effect, the charge
so preyed on the innocent actress
mind that l think that had more to do
with shattering her reason than any
thing else, for it came at a time when
she was least prepared for ii, owing
10 her stellar ambitions having proven
failure. I feel sure of one thing,
though, and that is that Georgia Cay
van has the deep sympathy of every
body in the profession. and they will
give her a benefit that will supply am
pie funds for her care for the rest Of
her days"

In his letter TO the president Gen.
Pearson refers to the decision of the
federal courts that only the executive
government had the right and power
to stop the shipment of animals and
munitions of war from the United
States to the British military forces in
South Africa In view of this decision.
he suggests that he be permitted %
strike the British camp at Fort Chal-
mette with force to be assembled at
New Orleans, and intimates that he
will consider the presidents failure to
respond to his communications as
equivalent to permission to make the
attack.
The government is always ready to
frustrate any designs that may involve
/ IL in complications with a foreign
country and the organization of an
armed force by Gen. Pearson will GER
tainly be followed by interesting de-
velopments. The government will do
all in its power to avert bloodshed. and
will. if possible, prevent any battle be
tween Britians and Beers on
American territory The forts at the
mouth of the Mississippi are garris-
oned by United States troops who
