When Irving wanted to be nasty he
could be. remarked an old Lyceum
hand once. His patience with the rank
and file was extraordinary, but where
a rebuke was deserved Irving's biting
sarcasm was quite up to the occasion.
There was In one production a super
who, though he had only a couple Of
lines to speak, made his entrance in
such a way as to lead one to believe he
was sustaining the leading role and
his behavior to his fellow actors was
equally unwarrantable. Irving soon
got on the track of this man and ran
him to earth at rehearsal In due time
the super entered, haughtiy saying:
my lord. the carriage is waiting"
Lets have it louder" said Irving.
The man repeated it in louder tone,
whereupon Sir Henry demanded that
it should be repeated again still louder
Yet again did he make the super re-
peat it, and louder still, and yet again
was the same demand made. The man
was becoming enraged and at last
shrieked out the words
Every good" said Sir Henry. very
good, indeed. but couldn't you just
manage to put a shade Of temper into

John Carson % Ia, well known to all
Addison county race goers, is working
nicely at the trot again and will start in
the % trot. They tried to make this
fellow pace but he would stick to the
trot, all honor to him for it. The old
grey gelding Donwood, 2:21 IA, by YER
mont also starts in the 2:22 trot, and if
the old horse is himself there will be no
loafing along in his race. Domino, a
black gelding without record they say,
is stepping well and will start either in
the green race or the 2:45 class. He is
owned by Thomas Billiard of Cornwall
and is by Edison Allen, 2:17 Ia, and his
dam was by Thomas A, son of Sciota, so
he had really ought to go some. Mr..
7. w. Parkin's chestnut stallion "Pine
Cone" is looking well and Mr.. Porter
says his colts are very blood like look
ing lot. AS there are a number of fast
young horses in Ferrisburg that will
without doubt start in the county race

has couple to start. One his own bay
mare by John Porter and the other own
ed by Mr.. Ruin of New Haven. Oliver
Danyo has nice brown mare by Brown
Velvet, (3), 2:29 Ia, dam by Banjo.
She has been away to school recently
and ought to keep the other starters
moving little anyhow. As we figure it
there will be at least seven starters in
this race. The fair ground is being i'm
proved in many ways The new hall is a
beautiful building and particularly adj
apted as an exhibition building 1t really
looks as if the only thing which can keep
the fair this year from being the larg-
est in its history, will be bad weather,
and as Col. Ilsley vouches for that we
know there will be no trouble on that
score.

FOUR CHILDREN
DIE IN FLAMES
PUPILS LOSE THEIR LIVES IN
DRILL AT SCHOOL
Panic-Stricken Mothers Fight to
Reach the Group of Screaming
Girls Ablaze on the
Platform

CENTRAL, CITY, KY, May 25.-
Four children were burned during the
commencement exercises of Mrs. Boyd's
school here last night, and died today.
They are:
SELMA CLAY, aged years.
DOROTHY CLAY, aged years.
NELL McGEARY, aged years.
LOUISE MARSHALL, aged years.
Rena May Miller, aged years, was
badly burned, but may recover.
Applause following a drill proved too
exciting for Dorothy Clay, who dropped
an electric candle, which ignited her
dress and those of the other children
on the stage. The house was in dark
ness and panic was averted only by
men who threw their coats about the
screaming children
Mothers fought to reach their chill
drens veritable small bonhres on the
platform. The children, frenzied with
the pain, made efforts to Chamber over
the footlights to their relatives. Little
Louise Marshall, a screaming rocket,
leaped over the footlights and into the

Men smothered the flaming clothing,
but in the cases of those named above
it was believed to have been too late.

he fed.
The boy was alone in his brothers
home, having been left to guard the
house. Hearing a noise in the kitchen,
he found there a negro at the table
holding a carving knife with which he
had sliced a loaf of bread lying on the
table. Adams snached the knife, but
was felled the next moment.
The flames from the kitchen were
seen by passerby. who sounded an
alarm. Firemen found the boy still
lying insensible on the floor and dragged
him out. About $50 damage resulted
from the fire.

lieving that he had killed his victim,
set fire to the house, hoping that the

ROOSEVELT GL0RIES
IN THE HUNT, SAYS
MAJOR FROM AFRICA

PARIS, May 25.-Maj. Louis L. Sea-
man, United States army. has arrived
here from Mombasa. where he met the
Roosevelt party. He says Selous and
Cunningham are the best hunters in
Africa, and that the former president
is having the time of his life"
Major Seaman, who hunted with DR..
Guieras of New York over the Athi
plains along the Nairobi river where
Mr. Roosevelt is shooting. brought out
$50 specimens of big game. He re-
ports animals so plentiful that after six
weeks hunting he and DR.. Guieras
were completely satisfied with the
sport. When he left, he said, he would
rather shoot snipe on the wing than
elephants.
Never have the western cattle
ranges seen so many animals he said
lone day we counted $50 Zebras, ga
zelles and other animals within a seq
ment comprising one-tenth of a cir
Gle. There were fully 5000 in sight.
Nevertheless the animals are hard to
approach, as the herds keep out senti-
nels."
Major Seaman considers the rhinose-
ros and the buffalo the most dangerous
to hunt, as they invariably charge,
which means death to the hunter il
the animal is not killed or crippled.
Lions, on the contrary, he says, are
naturally towards
MY respect for the lion has disap-
peared since l went to Africa" he said.
1.-The lion never fights except when he
is wounded or driven to bay"
Major Seaman, who is an expert in
military sanitation, was greatly inter-
ested in the sleeping sickness. He
brought back the first news of the dis
covery by DR.. Schrin, a German. which
completely upsets the theory of the
English commission that the tse-tse
fly only transmits the malady. DR..
Schrin proved that the fly becomes in
fected, thus establishing "a CYCLE as
is the case with the mosquito in yellow
fever. The fly remains inoculated for
fifty days. This discovery renders more
difficult the extinguishing of the dread
disease, as it ends the hope previously
entertained of suppressing it ~ isola-
ton.
The disease has claimed a half mil
lion victims, and according to Major
Seaman not a single person attacked
has ever recovered. The chief horror
is the long period of incubation. The
bite of the fly itselff when not inocu-
lated. is harmless. Dr. Seaman was
bitten on the forehead and suffered no
bad effects.
