classic The Two Orphans" In the cast
extremely few persons besides the orphans them
selves as railway transportation and board were
both high. But the show made up in scenery what
it lacked in cast. One scene, in particular, ap-
peaIed to the chuckiefaced youth. 1t was scene
in which the two orphans were sitting the
steps of Trinity church The snow was drifting
down over their thin shoulders. Broadway was
thronged with pedestrians. Horse-cars flew along
at eight miles an hour Nobody looked at the Or
phans. But the orphans, silent little sphynxes,
looked straight ahead-straight up the street.
There was Broadway! The infinite skill of the
scene painter seemed to have carried the street
clear to the horizon Nothing but buildings and
people and people and buildings till they blended.
at the finish into an indistinguishable haze of
paint.
The Nevada youth could hardly keep his seat.
The painted scene had fired his mind with
intense desire. He must be off to New York.
All during the show, which he not though he
looked straight at the stage, he kept his eyes
riveted to the splendid vista of Broadway. The
whole thoroughfare seemed to him to be treas
ure-house of opportunity And, at dusk, when the
lights begin to blaze UP along the "Great White
Way"-ah it is all jus& he had dreamed it to
be! All grand! All surprisingly great!
But kind friends he dimes at no lobster palace
that evening Nor do his magnificent jewels glis-
ter in the horseshoe crescent at the opera With
the money that he spare for his evening meal,
he couldn't buy Holsters tail, and a drygoods
box alley would lit MIN Detter Cnan a AOX at
the opera So he dimes poorly for sixty cents at
side-street restaurant, gets CLASSY eye from the
waiter for not giving tip. finds room in which
there is light by day, pure air night or day
and goes to sleep to dream of home and mother.
The next morning, he is awakened by ais
ceaneous assortment of noises ranging from
elevated wheels to horses hoofs AS he puts
on the shirt that mother Numbered for him, his
heart takes a sudden lurch back to the old roof
He calls his heart back. He is in New York to
make good. 1t is up to him to do it. And, by the
time he is ready to go out to hunt for breakfast
his nerve is all back.
With nothing to do but get job or starve, he
looks for work He hears that motormen are
wanted on the subway. Half afraid to offer his
services he nevertheless decides to do So On the
way to the companys Offices he considers all of
the situations glorious possibilities. Never in
the country did he dare dream that some day he
might make a battery of motors bite off 1000
horsepower of electricity and snatch eight loaded
cars through the subterranean night.
The good news goes home 10 the old folks that
their boy is going to run train in the New York
subway Oh if the boy could only see the min
gled sorrow and pride that light up his mothers
eyes when she reads the letter. It breaks her
heart to have her boy away but 1t mends II to

"AsSISTANT" RULER TO RETIRE

Forty years in one position IS not
a. bad record, but this is what mas
been accomplished by Lord knollys'
the kings private secretary, whose re-
tirement is now imminent. He orig
inally intended to give up his arduous
duties at the death of the late king,
and it was well understood that he
merely stayed on in order to tram
in Sir Arthur Bigge, upon whose
shoulders the responsibilities of the
royal secretaryship will now fall.
Such post requires not only hard
work, but a keen knowledge of the
world combined with tact, judgment,
decision and memory. 1t has been
said of Lord Knollys that no one could

Mrs. Hetty Green, with the assist.
ance of her son, Colonel e. H. r.
Green, has decided to have her for
tune managed through a $10OOO,OOO
private bank with branches in other
states, and will retire from all active

for the upbuilding of that territory
