Request for Az .rh He Understood,
but the Fee.
1t is fortunate that Rudyard Kipling
has the happy faculty of seeing the
humorous side of things when his pa
tience is so often taxed by the curl
osity Of the public, but in the follow
ing case he must have been sorely puz-
zled as well as amused.
While he was recovering from his
Illness in New York some years ago a
young lady who was staying at the
same hotel and who had frequently
seen Mr.. and Mrs. Kipling in the res
taurant, was most anxious to secure
his autograph, yet had not the cour-
age to ask him for it. One day, how
ever, when she saw them enter their
rooms, she was emboldened to write a
note asking Mr.. Kipling to be good
enough to give it to her. Waylaying
chambermaid she asked her to take in
the note, slipping a 10-cent piece into
her hand as a fee to her for the slight
service.
The maid went to the door, knocked
anu SHIeISu Will the HUG, WhiiS thO
young lady lowered nearby in the hall.
After a moment or so she heard a
loud laugh ring out from Kipling's
rooms and presently the maid re-
turned with the coveted autograph.
what did they say when they read
the note?" she eagerly asked of the
maid.
"He didn't seem to mind at all,
ma'am," was the startling reply; "but
Mr.. Kipling said he didn't quite under
stand what the 10 cents was for!"-

zGs ADJUSTMENTS @G

"a robust, vociferous actress, appar-
emily from Oonalaska's Shore" are
the literary garlands with which Win
tiers bedecks the Roberts brow. 1t is
well known, however, that, from his
quiet retreat on Staten Island, the
Tribune critic shoots sharp arrows at
nearly all the actors and actresses in
the universe. Alan Dale, also, who
uses acid and a javelin in his criti-
cisms, is not altogether captivated by
the western art of the graceful Flor
ence. Franklin Fyles carries the pen
dulum to the other end of the arc. He
fairly froths with soapy enthusiasm.
Acton Davies-the most brilliant critic
of all-takes the logical, conservative
view for which he is noted. But what's
the use of polling the jury when they
cannot agree on a verdict? Florence
Roberts, as an actress, is popular in
Salt Lake, although "The Strength of
the Weak" as play, added nothing
to her reputation as player.
Frank Maltese, a familiar figure on
the local Rialto, is home again from
, California. If Frank and his manager
had not had a disagreement, the for
mer would have been playing an en-.
gagement in Santa Rosa at the time
of the earthquake which desolated that
pretty little town. Maltese thinks that
much preserving virtue may come
from a theatric disagreement.
