Memory of John Ellsler.

In her "reminiscences Clara Morris
spoke kindly and frequently of the late
John Ellsler, in whose Cleveland thea
ter she began the career that took her
to the first playhouses of New York
and gained for her the admiration of a
doting public.
She tells of leaving Cleveland. and
of her last visit with Mr.. Ellsler as
follows:
"Mr. Ellsler was i'll, for the first

Nance O'Nell's Juliet.

Nance O'Neil, an actress who will
likely be seen in the east next winter,
Is something Of an idol on the Pacific
coast Her talent, however, finds its
best expression in the heavier TRACE
dies. At least such is to be inferred
from the reference Of a San Francisco
writer to her attempt at Juliet. Wrote
he: "As Juliet, Nance O'Neil is sim
ply impossible This is putting it gen.
tly. She has filed the California all

ute to her undoubted genius in other
roles, and the well wishers of the

Oldest Cat In the World.

In Germany there is society for
the protection Of cats, and Herr Pohl,
its president. recently drew attention
to the fact that In the royal castle of
Nymphenbourg there Is a cat which
Las lived for forty-two years, and is
still lively and vigorous. Cats" says
Herr Pohl, ARE in many respects like
ruman beings. The more quiet and
well conducted they are the longer
they are likely to live. In Germany
there are many old cats, but the one
at Nymphenbourg is evidently the
oldest Of ALL" Others maintain that
this wonderful cat is the Oldest in
the world, and challenge any one to
prove that they are mistaken.-Sci.
