CONDENSED STORIES.
Between Katherine and the Deep Sea,
He Chose the Latter.

E. III. Sothern has a new story
concerning the autograph hunters,
from the opportunities of whom ac-
tors suffer even more than distin-
guished people in other walks of
nfe. They become accustomed to
being buttonholed in street cars, on
the sidewalk, in hotel Hobbies and
even at the very door of the theater,
but Mr.. Sothern is the first one,
perhaps, who has ever been chased
into the ocean. While he was en-
joying morning swim in the surf
at Newport recently he heard some
one splashing and putting behind
him and at the same time calling to
him not to go SO fast. Thinking
the man had some good reason for
wanting to stop him, he turned and
said, "What is it ?"
"Hold on a minute, there" said
the stranger. aren't you Mr.. E.
HI. Sothern?"

"Well, [ want you (puff) to give
me puff) your autograph puff.
Will you?"
Thinking he had to deal with
harmless lunatic, Mr.. Sothern as
sured him that nothing would give
him greater pleasure. Would he
have it in sand, seaweed or salt wa
ter?"
'Never mind your joking" said
the stranger. "My Katherine is on
the beach, and she's got the album
and a stylographic pen"
"And did you submit to the impo-
sition?" Mr.. Sothern was asked.
"Well,' replied that gentleman,

patience with reporters who try to
pry into his private affairs. On one oc-
casion he was asked to pen a short auto
biography. At first he refused and then,
when the reporter began to o him, he
stopped him, took up his pen and wrote
as follows: ION arrival in London it

Speaking of bridges, it is probable
that the promoters of the Staten Island
sound structure will run Into a
whole lot of opposition when the pro.
ject reaches the State legislatures OF
New York and New Jersey.
In New \ ork it will be hard to con
vince the Legislators from "up State
that a bridge away down on the ex.
IRENE end of Staten Island is going tc
benefit them any, especially as the
State is about to spend $101 COG, 00C
for a canal.
At Trenton the task will be but
little easier. Bridges for the Della
ware river has the public eye just
now. The freshet a month or two
ago, carried away all the old struc-
lures and now, it is said, there is only
one bridge over the river between
Trenton and Lambertville. These
bridges, heretofore have been con-
ltrolled by private companies, but the
Iagitation that when they be rebuilt
the work be done by the States OF
Pennsylvania and New Jersey is grow
ing. All the counties along the Della
ware favor this and many other legis-
lators have expressed their opinion
that the State should own the struc-
lures and thus abolish the old fashion
ed toll system. Four or five bridges
at least are needed along the Delaware
and with the appropriation for these
! the outlook for success in the Staten
Island sound bridge is not as bright
as it might be. The Middlesex mer
have a big job in front of them, but
they are q sturdy quartet, young and
full of energy. If they win against
such obstacles, all the more glory fol
them. Perth Am boy wishes then
all the success possible.
