ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENT
''YEGGMAN.".

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
What is the origin Of the word
"Yeggman?" c. K. E..
The word originated in Egypt or Bo-
hemia among the gypsies. When a
particularly clever thief was discovered
among the tribesmen he was selected
as the "yegg" or chief thief.-Ed.
FIRST AMERICAN ACTORS.
To the Editor of the Evening Starr;
When were plays first given In tho
American colonies? r. H. D.
The history 'of the theatre in Amer
lea. from o 1870 to the present time.
is fairly well recorded, but before that
time comparatively little is known.
There is good reason to believe that an
attempt was made 500 after Penn and
his colonists had settled on the Della
ware to give some kind of theatrical
performance. OF late years the discov-
cry has been made that as early as
1902 there were theatrical performances
in Charleston, s. c., and in New York.
A few years g a rare play was I'M
earthed, by Anthony Ashton, called
THE Fools Opera. published about
1870, in which Ashton gives a short ac-
count of his life. in which he states
that he had appeared before the public
in the United States. From his auto
biography it appears he arrived here in
1902, and, from another source, that
he was living as a very old man in
1877. and thus 1t is natural to infer that
he appeared on the stage in America
considerably earlier than 17So.-Ed.

Notifying the National Candidates
a Proceeding Not Without Hunor

Regarded from this, the unsenti-
mental, point of view, the notifca-
ton ceremonies are entirely unjus-
tifable, but II the less expensive
and more expeditions method of en-
ploying the ~postof1ce was put into
practise, what a number of disap-
pointed men there would be for
whom some other form of solace,
probably even more costly, would
have to be devised.
Incredible as 1t may seem, there
is in every national convention a
scramble for places on the notifca-
ton committees. Those who can
not make the committee to notify
the presidential candidate are COM
PEELED to content themselves with
the function of waiting upon the
vice-presidential candidate. The
occasion is doubtless pleasant to all
the participants, unless 1t be the
candidate himself, who nay Won
der why he should be compelled to
wait for several weeks to say what
everybody knew he would say, that
he would accept the nomination,
and define his position.
The present way has the ad-
vantage over the more digni1ed
custom of the olden time of simply
notifying the nominee by official
letter, in that there is an assured
certainty that he is officially aware
of the action of the convention, and
will make due acknowledgment
thereof.
1t is related of Zachary Taylor
that his long silence following his
nomination for the presidency &C.
casioned much anxiety among the
Wings of the country, and not a
little curiosity on the part of the
general public. The explanation of
his neglect to make the ordinary
acceptance is peculiar both with
reference to the incident itself and
the primitive postal arrangements
of those days.
The presiding officer of the con-
vention wrote a letter of notifica-
ton to General Taylor addressed to
him at Baton Rouge, Louisiana,
where he resided. In those days
letters might be either prepaid or
postage paid on receipt. The chair
man., either being of a thrifty mind
or thinking hat General Taylor
would look out for the missive con-
tanning the official information, neg
lected to pay the postage. 1t so
happened that General Taylor had
become the target OF so many freak
letters and SO much gratuitous ad-

ANYTHING TO GET AWAY.

Richard Garlic, the brilliant actor
playwright, discussed polar expeditions
at a dinner party in New York with a
charming young matron-Mrs. Asterisk.
LAS for me-" said Mrs. Aster.sk, "I
cannot understand why so many Gull
tured men are willing to abandon
civilization n it's blessings andAspend
a lifetime pole-hunting amid the bleak
terrors of the cold white north!'
Mr.. earle shook his blond head and
smiled.
"Ah, madame, but you must remem-
ber.' said he. that all men are not
blessed with such wives as Mr.. As

ONE practical persons who
- would deprive politicians of
the pleasant perquisites of the
craft are suggesting, through the
columns of the press, that 1t is a
waste of time and money to have
notification committees wait upon
the nominees of national onven
lions and break to them, as
gently as may be, the astonishing
news that they have been selected
to be standard bearers. 1t is said.
and with truth, that the nominees
could be as we'll notified by a simple
letter from the presiding officers of
the conventions as by the employ
ment of special trains and other ex-
pensive means of transportation, to
carry a committee. composed of
gentlemen for whom no other mis-
sion could be found, to the resi-
dences of the candidates.
