"Glanclng through her part hastily at
breakfast, she noticed that there was
one scene In which she had 30 little to
say that It could be learned just be-
fore going on. She decided to skip that
scene and get to the longer passages.
when night came, and my aunt
made her appearance, she did very
well In the first scene. In the second
scene occurred the passages she had
skipped In the morning. She rushed 20
the corner In which she left her book,
but 1t was not there. Finally, the
stage manager, receiving no response
to his repeated calls, sought her out
and pushed her on the stage. There
she was, before large audience, with,
out the slightest idea Of what she wac
supposed to do or say. The scene was

presiding Judge, letter perfect in his
part, because he had 1t ready to read
from the papers In front of him. A
trial was taking place, and Miss
Thorne, to her horror, discovered that
she was to be the principal witness,
on whose answers hung the entire plot
Of the play. The Judge adjusted his
spectacles, looked at his part, and said

the pistol, another poled a match in

his six-shooter was not feared, pulled
the trigger. There was no report, and
before he could repeat the attempt TO
