POPUI AR STAGE MANAGER
John II. Fitzgerald of the Jacque 5
 Received Gifts Last Nisht.

Back in the days when the old Casino was one of the theater attrac- tions in this city, John M. Fitzgerald
 began his first real duties as stage
 manager. Those were glorious days ln some respects, but in others they
 were days that one would not wish to recall IL was on the stage of that old playhouse, however. that Jack Fitz- gerald took his primary lessons in stage-craft. and from that time to the present he never lost any of his am- birion to become the real thing in stage manager craft. As the manager of the stage at the Jacques he became popular not only with his fellow en- ployes. but also with the travelling companies. Five years ago he was elected president Of local ss of the union of stage hands and that positioE he has held ever since. He has been an indefatigable worker for the stage workers and for that reason he was chosen as their delegate te the Pitts burg convention of stage hands which opens next week.
 Last evening while attending 10 his duties in the theater he was agreeably surprised while standing in the wings to be accosted by his fellow workers, who presented him with a gold watch fob. gold mounted meerschaum pipe and pair of gold link cuff buttons He returned his thanks in grateful words, although surprised at the pre- sentation. Following closely on his fellow workers presentation came an- other surprise of the evening. when Comedian George Hoey of the stock company playing at the theater pre-. sented him with a box of cigars as a reminder of the good feeling existing among the actors and actresses for the obliging stage manager. AIr Fitzger- aid left this morning for Pittsburg and will be absent for ten days.
