The kinq's Premature Death.

The leading tragedian Of small
company playing in an unimportant
English village felt himself hard up
one evening for a man to walk on in
the first act Of a historical boodcur-
dler and say to him, "My lord. the king
is ILL.," and to appear in the last act
with the information. "My lord, the
king is dead" So the leading TRACE
dian took an active and fairly passable
stage hand on one side and. engaging
him for an extra shilling or two, in
structed him carefully upon the artis-
tic responsibilities Of his new duties.
Nov. mind you" he said. 1.-The first
time you come on you say. My lord.
the king is ILL., and the second time
you come on you say. My lord. the
king is dead" That's all right,
guv'norv exclaimed the unshaven re-
cruit growing visibly larger in the
chest with the magnitude of his pro-
motion. And then ''the night" came,
and 10 the first act Oh staggered the
dusty debutant, With the dread line,
uttered hurriedIy. but in a prodigious
voice, "My lord. the king is dead!'
"Oh. is he?" snarled the leading trage-
dian, turning upon the much befeather-
ed messenger a look of eternal hatred.
Then he has spoiled the whole of my
blooming part."
