MATINEE IDOL OF THE PAST.
Montague Was Object Of Much
Feminine Admiration.

Arthur wallack, In New York Evening Post.
Montague's temperament and person
atty peculiarly fitted him for a certain
line Of parts. Of light and elegant char
acter. which no actor since has filled
quite 50 satisfactorily. 1t was in the mod
ern Robertsonian comedy that he shone.
for. never a great actor. in such parts as
D'Alroy in Caste" Lord Beaufoy in
School and Capt. Molyneux in 1.-THE
Shaughraun." a part which Boucicault
wrote for him. he was delightful
Like the present-day matinee IDOL but
moro 50, Montague was much admired by
the fair sex, and I frequently. after a
matinee, was obliged to let him out by
the front door of the theater, in order that
he might escape the crowd OF women col
lected at the stage door on 4th avenue.
His favorite flower was the violet, and
one persistent admirer sent him a bou-
quet OF those flowers every Saturday. This
was kept up for two years. At first he
paid little attention to It, but after a.
while, fds curiosity being aroused. he en-
listed my services to aid him in finding
out who the sender was. Our efforts were
in vain, for though the flowers continued
to arrive with never-ending regularity, We
were never able to trace the source from
which they came. When we went to
Boston, whore he played at the Boston
Museum. he received on his first night a
box containing the usual bunch of violets.
and each Saturday thereafter. at the
Parker House, where we stopped, SINH
lar box would arrive. Whether he ever
eventually ascertained who the donor was
do not know, but I don't think he did
There was q huge bunch Of violets placed
on his grave the day of his funeral, and
always thought they were sent by the
fair unknown.

REPLIES FROM 724|
Views of Board of Trade and
Chamber of Commerce.
POLL TAKEN ON MERGER

The result Of the poll of members OF
the Board Of Trade and Chamber of
Commerce on the question of consolida-
ton of the two organizations. conducted
by volunteer committee. consisting OF
members Of both, has been submitted to
the board of directors Of the two bodies
with a request that the matter be taken
UP at an early date.
The committee received 724 replies to
It's circular letter, sent to every member
of the board and chamber. Of these. the
committee reports, 60 were favorable to
the merger 50 opposed to.the merger and
10 were non-committal The membership
of the two organizations is about 1,oOO.
Suggestion of Committee.
The volunteer committee which consists
of James Sharp julius Garfinkle, A. L.
Hensey and John B. Sleman. jr., In Its
letter transmitting its report to the
boards of directors, says in part:
I'm order that the matter may be
formally and officially considered we
suggest that the subject be made the
special order Of business at the next
succeeding meetings OF the Chamber OF
Commerce and Board OF Trade, ana tnat
If It is the sense of the meetings that
merger is desirable a committee from
the Chamber of Commerce be appointed
to join similar committee from the
Board Of Trade. the Joint committee to
select a chairman, who shall be a MEM
Der Of both bodies. We would further
suggest that this joint committee so
formed should be empowered by the two
bodies to hear suggestions as to ways
and means by which the merger may be
effected, the form of organization Of the
new body and all other matters pertain
ing thereto, and to report to both Or
ganizations with their accommodations.
lit is our judgment that such consider
alton should not be hurried. that the
joint committee may have opportunity to
hear the views of all who wish to ex-
press them. as we'll as to study the FORMS
of organization most successful in other
cities"

Turkish Parliamentary Etiquette.

Tho etiquette Of the members OF the
Turkish chamber almost vies with the
poftteness Of the young Chinaman to his
prospective father-in-law. SO amusingly
told by Goldsmith. At the commence
ment of the new era, either by accident
or design. q custom arose that when any
member of the house entered all those
who were present rose from their seats
and made their salaam to the newcomer
Even If q member was addressing the
house a breach in the speech was consid-
cred preferable to a breach of courtesy.
consequently the orator paused. and the
civilities compiled with, proceedings re-
sumed. To put matters bluntly, these
amenities proved themselves a nuisance
so Mukhtar Pasha took the matter in
hand. with the result that the house
agreed that these courtesies should only
be observed before the house was in ses-
sion. AS the members drop in now all
