NUMEROUS STOCK COMPANIES
At Present 161 of Consequence Play.
ing Throughout Country.

At present there are 161 stock and
repertory companies of consequence
in the country. A few of these remain
for the season in the big towns, but
most of them travel east or west, or
north or south. playing for night or
q week in one place. Some of them
have plays of their own, but the ma
jority are content with the old ia
vorites.
These repertory companies keep the
classics of the stage alive. They play
Hamlet" or THE Ticket of Leave
Man" or "The Lady of Lyons" with
equal impartiality. AS rule they can
that is known to be good than with a
new play that theater-goers know
nothing about.
Most of these travelling companies
do not pay royalties. A few years ago
they would work over and adopt the
popular successes in the big cities.
They would give the plays of Hoyt I'M
der a different name, perhaps, with
scarcely more change in the lines and
and scenes than was necessary to
adapt them to a smaller company.
But under the new copyright law there
is too much risk in stealing plays, and
the minor repertory company contents
itself with the old favorites.
Aside from these 161 stock and
repertory companies of sufficient con-
sequence to be recorded and routed by
theatrical papers, no one knows how
many small companies there are play
ing one-night stands in the county
seat towns or stopping for a week
where the hotel rates are low and the
opera house management is satisfied
with small per cent. Most of them
have general uti1ty man who can
doctor up any of the old plays and
stage it with six or eight people, CIV
ing performances that are without
merit and that people will pay to see.

MADE FAME FOR MRS. PAT"
"Tan Bark" TOKENS Unique Scheme
for interesting New York in Star.

One Of the most successful press
agents at present making theatrical
near-history is Token Worm. better
known in the profession" as Tanbark
Worm. He is the man who made Mrs.
Campbell famous. She was playing her
first engagement in New York at the
theater now known as the Belasco
agent. Knowing the eccentric irrita
bility of his star, he conceived the idea
of spreading tan bark along Forty
second street in front of the theater
to deaden the noises which, he let it be
known, Jared upon the sensitive
nerves of the actress almost beyond
endurance. Some city department
granted the authority, and the tan
bark was spread. The story was
printed far and wide, exciting laugh
ter, comment, derision. Finally the
talk resulted in rebuke from officials
higher up to the department which
had granted the authority to spread
the bark. The tan bark was removed.
That meant more stories, more talk.
Mrs Patrick Campbell became famous,
even among those people who prob
ably to this day have never seen her
act. She became the center of news
paper attention wherever she went
The doings of her toy dog, Pinky-panky-
poo. were chronicled, pictured, carl
catured-always with Mr.. Worms in
valuable assistance-till the dog also
became a public character. One after
noon in Boston Mrs. Campbell, coming
on the stage before the matinee, OBJ
served Nick Loretz, her stage car
penter, with whom she was not on the
most amiable terms, peeping out at
the audience.
IT'S splendid house, isn't it," said
she sweetly. Il suppose you think the
crowd is due to the nice weather."
NO." said Nick, land it amt due to
you neither. It's all case of tan bark
and dog"

Kitty Killed a Fine Play.

A really fine play in which wom-
an star appeared not long ago was
condemned because at an inopportune
moment the theater cat walked out
upon the stage, stretched lazily, and
curled up to go to sleep. The first
night audience howled with glee at
this unexpected contretemps and the
play was ruined.
Other plays have been consigned to
limbo because the lighting effects have
failed to work as it was intended that
they should. George AIDES first mus
ical comedy, THE Sultan of Sulu,"
was marked on its first appearance at
the Studebaker theater by an erratic
moon that rode the skies in a most
undignified and unmoonlike fashion. A
little later this mishap was utilized as
q fun-making device in The Land of
Nod" in which a song satirizing the
moon songs when in fashion was used
while an erratic spotlight moon was
moved in all directions except the
right one on the back drop.

Some SUGGESTIONS.

If toilet silver is rubbed with soft
dry cloth every day it will not need
weekly polishing If your thread knots
when sewing rub it towards the needle.
If rubbed towards the work it will GER
tainly tighten the knot Celery will
keep crisp long time If kept where it
is perfectly dark, An easy way to dye
is to take tube paint, dissolve in gas
oline, the shade desired, then dip goods
and proceed as when washing with
gasoline. If bread that is burned is
shaved with a sharp knife immediate.
ly after taking it from the oven the
appearance as well as the taste will
be greatly improved. If the drain in
your sink gets ciogged up use the
palm of your right hand for a suction
pump. Have water in the sink and
press with rapid succession with the
palm of the hand until the water runs
freely. If you should fail to make
passage procure a wrench and take
the cap from the bowl under the sink.
Salt mixed with cornstarch will not
get lumpy and will run freely from the
salt cellar. If you are troubled with
the bread getting dry wrap it in a
cloth of several thicknesses and place
a wet cloth over the whole, being care
full not to let the bread get wet.

New York.-Blackwelis Island peni-
Tertiary, where minor offenders Of
New York city's laws serve their SEN
fences, will know the striped suit and
the lockstep no more.
John v. Coggey, commissioner of
correction, announced the other day
that he has decided to put an end to
stripes and lockstep in the peniten-
tiary, as he believed that they did
much to kill any smoldering spark of
decency that may remain in the pris.

Advice About Cooking Hams.

A ham should never be cooked with
out having been soaked first for "a
hours in cold water. When it is ready
to be cooked, drain it, put on fresh
water, skin the ham, cover again with
boiling water and cook slowly for one
more hour. Again drain the ham and
pour over it one quart of cider and
enough boiling water barely to cover
it. Boil slowly for another hour, re-
move from the fire and allow to cool
in the liquor. When cold, drain off
the liquor and keep it. Trim the ham
into a nice shapes cover it with crack
er crumbs highly seasoned with
spices, black pepper and a heaping
tablespoonful of brown sugar; moisten
with cider and bake slowly for two
hours, basting frequently with the
liquor in which the ham was boiled.

COULD BARK LIKE A DOG.
Poet Rostand, Dupe for a Time, Be.
comes Shrewd Detective.

Paris.-M. Edmond Rostand, the
poet and dramatist, took villa near
Bayonne recently and was kept awake
every night by dog which bayed the
moon and reused all the other dogs
within earshot. A man named Fail
letcut, said he could stop the barking,
and actually succeeded in doing so.
A week later, however, the barking
started again, and M. Rostand recog-
nized the dismal tones of the leader
of the chorus. He summoned Fail
lietout and questioned him as to his
alleged power over the animals. Fail
letout was flattered, and discoursed at
large.
And can you bark like a dog?"
asked M. Rostand, in innocent admira-
ton. Failletout demonstrated: "Ah,
l recognize that bark" said M. Ros-
tand, don't let me hear 1t again at
night" Failletout departed crestfal-
len, and no dog has parked beneath NJ.

ONE ON THE PRESIDENT.
w. r. Cody Tells Story of Roose-
veIt's Quest of Bear Dogs.

Denver, Col-"Buffalo Bill" Cody,
while a guest here, told this joke on
President Roosevelt:
When the president was in Colorado
hunting, the expedition was hard up
for bear dogs. On the third or fourth
day out Chief Guide Golf said: "Mr.
President, know man who has good
bear dogs. ., l will see if 1 can get
them"
"All right said the president, "do
it," But the man turned down the
guide.
81 will go over and see him myself"
said the president, and he did.
Nothing doing" said the owner of
the dogs.
do you know who I amp" demand
ed the president, Il am the president
of the United States
Well" replied the dog owner II
don't care - if you are, and
wouldn't care - if you were
Booker T. Washington, you couldn't
have my dogs"
And the president, concluding that
the dog owner knew his own business
best, went back to camp and told the
story with much glee.
