Rain That Is Rain.

William +. Hawtrey, who is this
season the chief support OF Miss Hilda
SpOng IN John Hudsons Wife" sat the
other day at his favoTite window in the
Lambs Club idly watching the dreary
driZzle OF rain outside. From the lips
of eminent players seated in neighbor-
ing chairs came constant and vigorous
condemnation OF the beastlv weather.
Finally Mr. Hawtrey, rousing himself
from his reverie. turned to the grum-
blers and said: "If YOU will pardon
me. gentlemen, I wish to state that you
Americans know nothing whatever about
rain. To become really acquainted with
rain one must go 10 the Southern hem
ispheTe. There he viii see rain I'm all
its glory. ! recall an occasion when
] was presenting a Message from Mars
IN small city in Australia. The night
was fair when the audience assembled
and the performance went smoothly un-
til Just before the entrance OF the Mar
tan messenger. You will recall that Il
that moment there is a great rumbling
and fash produced to enhance the ira-
matte effect Of the visitor TO earth. The
effect vas properly produced, but to the
establishment of the stage manager and
all concerned it did not cease when the
messenger was ready TO deliver his
opening line As you may imagine. there
was great scurrying 10 aud fro be-
hind the scenes TO find out what had
gone wrong with the thunder and light
ming machines. They were found to be
inactive. and at length. after several
minutes had passed, we discovered that
nature had taken charge OF our me-
Chanical effect and that the roar and
rumpus was caused by the downpour of
rain on the tin roof of the theater.
To go on with the play was impossible,
and ] therefore went down to the foot
lights and, making speaking trumpet
of my hands. announced that the per
foTmaEce would proceed when the rain
stopped The orchestra leader imme-
diately began To play the loudest piece
in his repertoire. but II was not heard
beyond the third or fourth row And
that delightful audience, accustomed to
real rain. sat patiently for the coed
half hour until the elements permitted

purchase seats two weeks In advance.
He was returning to town from a
nearby city, and seated across the aisle
from him In the paFlor ear was a stun
ming young woman dressed in the height
OF fashion, who bore all the appearance
Of good breeding and social position.
She stared at the impresario continu-
ally for over ten minutes much TO his
annoyance. and as he sat wriggling In
his seat neryously. she crossed 10 him
and said:
Il trust you Will pardon my seeming
lack or good manners, sir. but your
face bears a striking resemblance to a
picture / cut from a magazine article
recently. II I may be so impertlnent.
are you not John c. Fisher. the theatri-
cal manager"
Upon beng informed by Mr.. Fisher
that he vas. the young woman con-
tinued:
How jolly! To think that am
really talking to a great theatrical
manager. Oh. II mother only knew it!
We have often talked so much Of you
at home You see, mother and I are
greatly interested in matters pertain
Ing 10 the stage, and we read an ar
tiele about how you discovered .Fioro-
dora after every other manager in New
York had refused II, and how you built
fl Up when IL seemed doomed to Ger
tain failure. I was thinking what a
surprise IL would be 10 mamma II /
could only get your autograph for our
album at home-that Is, IL you wouldn't
mind?'
Though naturally a modest man, Man
ager Fisher couldn't repress his vanity
at this sudden outburst OF admiration,
and with a bow replied. similingly:
My dear young lady. I wish 10 as
sure you that l am charmed to be OF
so little assistance TO you, and desire
10 inform you that / consider your re-
quest a high compliment to my ability.
Have you anything upon which 1 could
write IL. or shall ! place il on the
back OF one OF my own cards?"
If It is just as agreeable to you"
the sweet young thing said. would you
mind writing il here?" passing the
manager a card. AS he took II, with q
bow. and was about TO inscribe his
name MS eye fell upon a line written
above where his signature was 10 90
that read: Pass two CO. Best seats
in house
The young W0man's nerve and OTigi-
nality secured her the coveted pass, and
as Mr. Fisher returned the card he
sank back in his seat and, gazing out
the window, murmured something that
sounded susplciously like, Pride soeth
