Edmund Kean was playing in "Rich-
ard Ill.," and the part Of Catesby had
to be taken by low comedian. who
sauntered on to the stage at the wrong
moment and uttered the famous
words, "My lord, the Duke Of Buck
ingham is TAKEN" in the wrong place.
Edmund clinched his fists in rage,
but otherwise took no notice Of the re-
mark.
Later the comedian repeated the
words in the right place, and when
the king expressed surprise at the
news Catesby folded his arms. walked
boldly down the stage and remarked
to the great actor in loud tones:

CALUMET YOUNG man ALMOST
MARRIFS HIS OWN SISTER
Parted in Childhood Brother and
Sister Meet Here and Fall
in Love
STORY OF STRANGE ROMANCE

An interesting romance has just
been unfolded i'm Calumet. one which
fortunately ended happily for the in
terested parties. 1t concerns young
man and woman, who came To this
country some time ago from the north
ern borders of Finland and Sweden.
According to the story told The
News, they met shortly after arriving
i'm Calumet. and their acquaintance
soon ripened into love. This was to
have had its sequel in marriage,
but blood relations were found to ex-
list i'm the young couple. and the pro-
posed wedding was called off.
1t appears that the young peoples
parents died when both were young,
and the young woman was sent to a
relative in the northern part Of Swed-
en- while the hoy was brought up by
a relative i'm the northern part of Fin
land.
The brother and sister never cor
responded with each other IL is said,
and each was ignorant OF the others
whereabouts. Eventually they both
emigrated to this country, and they
met I'm Calumet as strangers.
A mutual attraction drew the two
young people together and they met
often. Each reciprocated the Others
affections, and eventually it was de-
cided to apply for a marriage license.
The girl was preparing her wedding
trousseau for the marriage, when dur
ing a conversation between the pair
one evening, childhood days became
the subject OF discussion.
As bit by bit the tale Of being left
an orphan was unfolded by the young
man. the young woman piled her lover
with questions with the result that no |
doubt was left in the mind of the |
young woman that her lover was her
own brother The young man was
more skeptical concerning that fact |
Dut eventually proofs were presented |

thought and a lot Of maneuyering on
the part OF the various civic bodies
and politicians who want the walkout

up the town
Yet the trolley men, who are asking

ployes and the company which de-
clines TO recognize the union or put
the outcasts back to work, say
mo peace unless we win
AS a matter OF fact, the strike situa-

graded and meanwhile, according to
figures put ont by those most interest

has lost more than s2,00O000 in the

must be done to call off the strik-
