HAYS SENSE OF HUMOR.
Ease with Which the Late Secretary
of State Saw Things
Through.

The following anecdote of the late
John Hay furnishes an example of his
sense of humor and the ease will
which he passed VIGOROUSLY through
an awkward situation:
Alighting from a train at White
River Junction with a clerk of the
state department, he made his way tc
the lunch counter of the station
There was only one vacant stool, and
the clerk gave precedence to his dis.
tinguished chief, taking his own meal
standing.
Next to Mr.. Hay, and ignorant as tt
the identity of his neighNor, was
perched Young Corbett, the champion
lightweight pugilist of the world. In
the middle of the meal the clerk was
mortified to see Mr.. Hays neighbol

Uncle Bill Anderson has just had
word from the managers Of the Lewis

sition to manage one Of the old-time
bull races for them. They say they
viii not allow IL to take place on the
Trail, and, as there is no other place,
Uncle Bill may he forced to go to Irv'
ington Park. But he says the race
will be run, and II will be called the

In an early day, before there were any
horses in the country, bull races were
quito fashionable, and were a set-on
for the bull fights held in California
and Mexico. Bill has one bull that
can go pretty close to three minutes.

CELEBRATE
ANCIENT
PAGEANT
Seven Hundred People and
Three Separate ChOirS
viii Participate

London, June ia celebration be-
gan today in the little Dorsetshire town
Of Sherborne which conveys a sense Of
antiquity very difficult for an American
who knows no country but his own to
realize. The celebration takes the form
Of a pageant to mark, not the towns
centennial or even bicentennial, but the
1900 anniversary Of its foundation, and
the means taken to mark the event
bring into sharp relief the contrast be-
tween the present and the days when
S~herborne first became famous as a
bishopric, as the seat Of the school
where King Alfred was taught his let
ters, or, to come down to comparatively
recent times, when it was the residence
Of Sir Walter Raleigh.
The pageants, which are to continue
until Thursday, are being held in the
interior Of the ruined castle founded
by Roger Of Caen. Enriched by a
deep moat is a greensward measuring
some 100 by $50 yards, two separate
blocks Of ruins serving admirably the
funtions Of a background for the stage.
The festival is not a mere procession
or series OF tableaus, but a genuine
.folkplay, representing in action, with
dialogue, music, professions, morris and
maypole dances, and choruses, episodes
out Of the varied history Of Sherborno
from the coming Of Saint Aldhelm in
7O5 to the reign Of Elizabeth. Among
the episodes to be represented are the
founding Of the town and school, a bat
tie with the Danes, the quarrels be-
tween the townspeople and the abbey
and the intervention Of Robin Hood
and his merry men, the arrival Of Sir
Walter Raleigh, etc. and a final picture
is to show the American descendant Of
the ancient town.
Sixty performers have speaking
parts, aud with the three separate
choirs there will be altogether 700 peo'
pie in the arena at one time, many of
them mounted on go%rgeously capari'
soned steeds.

fraud cases--Stephen A. Douglas Pu.
ter, Horace Greedy Mckinley and our
own Daniel Webster Tarpley, but this
morning the Jail record this morning
contains the illustrious name Of Ros.
well p. Flower, who is charged with
burglary. For some time the stolz
cider factory has been suffering fror
petty pilfering, money being taken at
night from n roller top desk, in which
the afternoons receipts were left, and
the employees also missing many small
articles. The matter was turned over
to Sheriff Culver, who set a watch up.
on the place.
Last night the employees watched
until IL O'Clock, at which time the
sherif's men were to relieve them.
Shortly before the change was made,
Flowers turned the trick, but whom the
watchers undertook TO arrest him, he
got away. The sheriff soon got on his
track and followed him over into Polk
county, catching him about eight miles
from the city. At the sherif's sug
gestion, Mr.. Stolz had put some marked
coins in the desk, and these were found
on the prisoner, who, seeing the game
was up, confessed.
The prisoner is a pleasant looking
young fellow, probably 20 years Of
age.

BARNEY
Bernard
In THE Financier''---The
Great Hebrew Comedy
SuccesS--COming

Mr.. Barney Bernard and his excel
lent company will be seen al the Grand
Opera House on mex Thursday even
ing, June 10th. 1t is needless for us to
tell Of Mr.. Demands reputation as a
comedian, for his name is a household
word from coast to coast, and he stands
today at the head Of his class on the
American stage. "The Finaneier" is
the name Of the production in which
Mr.. Bernard is starring this season.
1t is a clever three-aet high-class com
edy, from the prolific pen Of that great
American playwright, Harry Cottrell,
written especially for Mr.. Bernard, and
giving him ample scope for his we'll
known talents, AS may be imagined
Mr.. Bernard is "the show" He is
an actor Of genuine ability, and has
recognized hat all comedy work wor-
thy of the name is played upon seri-
business. His portrayal of the stage
jew is not a carieature, but the sketch
of a careful character student; not
once during the entire progress Of the
play does he resort TO any Of the
cheap, fash tricks used by alleged
"Hebrew comedians" There are no
faneiful motions of his hands, no
feigned nasal intonations Of the voice,
no poor little efforts of any sort pulled
in for their own sake. There are sew
eral scenes of pathos, and in all his
work the actor shows a vast improve
ment in the last five years,
Seats for this production will be on
sale at the box Office on text Thursday
at 9 O'Clock.
