IN STAGELAND.
FarrLn of Ben Hur Fame Is a Maine
6oy.-Topics of the STAGE.

augusta people who had the pleasure
of witnessing the production of Ben
Hur' in Portland last week, or who
VIII be so fortunate as to see it in Ban
gor this week, will be Interested to
Know That Mr.. Farnum, who played the
tltle role, is, to certain extent, a
Maine boy. He, together with his
brothers Marshall and Dustin. both i'm
the theatrical profession, spent the
greater part of their boyhood DAYS in
the delightful Hancock county town of
Bucksport; the town made known all
over America by Dick" Golden i'm his
play "Old Jed Prouty." There they
learned to sail a boat, row and do all
the things which boys in a seaport
town, such as BuckspOrt to Il very
large extent is, usually learn They
were born in Massachusetts. Boston. if
memory is correct, and lived there for
number of years. In connection with
their arrival in Bucksport and their
first view OF plot of green grass more
than six feet square upon which they
could play. Col. Stephen La Crosse,
their grandfather, tells an interesting
story. He says:
The boys arrived at the house and
when they saw, the big yard. with apple
trees and flowers they scarcely knew
what to make of it. For time they
just looked at this bit of enchanted
ground and wondered. Then one of
them could stand it no longer. He
locked me square in the eye ana ex-
claimed:
oh, my. grampa, what do YOU do
with al that grass and flowers?'
II told him it was q place for them to
play on. They scarcely understood I'M
til | had explained that the yard was
for their use, for them to rOmp upon. I
got no further with the explanation.
They understood it and, and-we!l, nv
boy. 'tWOuld have done your heart
good to have seen the rush those three
youngsters made for the grass and to
have seen them roll around upon il ana
enjoy themselves.
Dear. little chaps. it brought tho
tears to my eyes
And to him and his good wife they
are still Little Willie" Little Dus-
tin" and Little Marshal"
That VIII Farnum, Ben Hur ana his
brothers should take to the stage is no
more strange than that a duck should
seen water. Their mother was an
actress of marked ability. while their
father had always been connected with
the theatrical business.
