the mother kept her promise to prepare
a hot cross bun for his return. Each
year she lived the anxious mother OBJ

BOOTH AND BARRETT.
How the Breach Between These Two
Great Actors Occurred

How the Breach Between These Two
Great Actors Occurred.
The great breach in the friendship
between Edwin Booth and Lawrence
Barrett occurred when Barrett was
playing "The Man O. Airlee' in
Booths theater in New York city. The
piece did not draw, and Booth decided
to have it discontinued. So Gas he aft
erward told Of the incidenD he breach
ed the subject to Barrett, who imme-
diately grew angry. do you mean to
say that 1 can't play it?' he demanded
hotly. Booth assured him in conciI-
iatory way that he gave the first part
fairly, but not the last. In greater
passion than ever, Barrett repeated,
"Do you mean to say that can't play
it?" Booth, still trying to not offend
him, said II don't think you have quite
worked into the last act" Then Bar
rett's fury burst it's bounds, and he ter
minated torrent of invective with the
remark. "Your fathers weakness and
your brothers crime placed you where
you are. But I will live to see you in
the gutter and will stand above you"
In spite of this the two grew to be
friends again and starred in the combi-
nation that drew the biggest houses Of
the time

pected Of fraudulent use Of the mails, re-
signed.

INSPECTOR Holden, who was present whe
the discovery was made, did not deny
that he received the money, He said that
It hai been given to him by Storey merely
as a loan and that he realized It looked bad
and 80 returned it a few days later
Hoden's story is believed by the United
States District Attorneys ONCE. The at
torneys say. however, that the act was
criminal upon its face and that they will
be compelled 70 try him for accepting a
brine.

INSPECTOR Mayer, who is in charge Of the
New York division, 70 conduct fun In
estigation Of the matter. W. W. Dickson
lie still at the head Of the local inspectors,
and II II declared that there lie no reflection
upon him. Mayer has been instructed TO
oonfne himself to finding out whether or
not there was any COLLISION between Holden

OF the Department than himself. he went
TO Washington and, after telling Chief
Inspector Nickery all that had happened,
rendered his resignation. Now be de-
clares that he IL sorTy he did this, as he
