Refused 90 Permit a Performance
That satirized Their Craft.

In 1893 Footc had produced a bur-
ieaaue, tho author OF which has
never been discovered. entitled The
Taiiors; Tragedy for Warm
Weather" Dowton announced the
revival Of this piece for his benefit.
As the tito implies. II was a satire
upon tho sartorlal craft, and upon
the bills being issued an indignation
meeting was convened by the knights
OF the needle, who vowed TO oppose
the performance by might and main.
Menacing letters were sent 70
Dowton, telling him that 1900
tailors would attend to his piece, and
one, who signed himself Death"
added that 10000 men could be
found II necesgary. These threats
we're laughed at by the actors: but
when night came IL was discovered
that the craft we're in earnest, and
that, with few exceptions, they had
eontriyed 10 secure every seat IN the
house, while a mob without stiil
squeezed for admission. Tho mo-
ment Dowton appeared upon the
stage there was hideoug uproar,
and some one threw pair Of shears
at him.
Not a word would tho rioters
listen 10, nor would they accept any
compromise in tho way OF changing
tho piece. within howIed and Kissed
without intcrmission hundreds Of ex-
asperated tailors; outside howled
and beloved thousands Of raging
tailors, who attempted to storm tho
house. 80 formidable did tho riot
wax that a Magistrate had to be sent
for and special constablcs called out,
but these were helpless against over
wheIming odds, 30 troop Of Life
Guards Was ultimately summoned
who after making sixteen prisoners
put tho rest 10 flight.
