The Feastins Scene Developed q Conf.
cal Complication.
In Willie Edouin's production OF
Dreams" which enjoyed a long and
lucrative prosperity, there was a night.
ly feast on the stage, of which the
principal item was q property
chicken, made of CANVAS and with de-
tachable legs and wings. Obviously
the actors could not eat them, and each
night after the scene they were gath
cred up and replaced on the bird, ready
for the next performance. The real
edibles were generally apples, bread
and gingersnaps, for the purchase of
which generous management allowed
the property man % cents a night
James, as this functionary was called,
used to pocket the money. according to
members Of the company, and feed
them stale biscuits and crackers taken
hotels in which he made his residence
en- tour. Member after member of the
company complained to Mr. Edouin.
but each was treated with scant con-
sideration, for Mt Edouin did not have
to eat in the play. His share in the
banquet was glass of lemon soda,
served in place Of wine, and the prop
erty man was generally wise enough
not to offend the star by any substitu-
ton.
One night, however, during the ban
quet scene, when Mr. Edouin. as a
grandfather, pulled the cork Of the
stage champagne, a disagreeable odor
and whitish smoke came forth. Some
thing had gone wrong with the lemon
soda. Mr.. Edouin discovered at once
that there had been a mistake. He
pushed his own glass aside and start
ed to fill the other glasses. Thereupon
his wife, who was never behindhand
when there was chance for fun,
leaned across the table and remarked
quite audibly:
'You are going to give US treat to-
night, grandpa; don't forget yourself
Interpolatjng lines meant fine OF
the bottle to fill his glass. The last OF
the liquor was thicker and apparently
more unpleasant than the first. As
Edouin appeared to hesitate his mis-
chievous wife sprang to her feet with
a new Interpolation:
"a bumper, grandpa" she cried,
shaking the gray curls she wore as
grandpa's wife 81 demand that you
shall first drink a bumper to the
health of the old wife who has stood
at your side more than fifty years."
The house applauded, and there was
no getting out Of It. Edouin drained
the glass, then, with look Of murder
in his eyes, vanished from the scene.
A moment later he returned, dragging
with him the property man, who had
been standing in the wings. dressed
as country pumpkin, ready to drive
the sleigh in the next scene.
Here, mother" said Edouin, heres
some one who wants to drink your
health too" SEEKING a bowl. he drain.

His Precious Decoration,


An actor who had attained some rep
utation in Berlin once played in a small
German principality for fortnight.
The grand duke, to the actors disap-
pointment, failed to decorate him. He
mentioned this oversight at q cour,
dinner to a chamberlain. and the next
day he was sent for.
My friend" said the grand duke,
handing the actor box. here is
something to remember me by"
The overjoyed actor departed. but
his cab had hardly gone ten yards
when. ordering 1t to return again. the
actor was once more ushered into the
grand dukes presence.
"Oh, SIR" he said, Il had to drive
back. There are two crosses In the
box"
"Oh. no matter" said the grand duke.
Give the other to the cabman."

Murray Theater

The Bimbos, comedy acrobats, prob
ably have the best novelty act seen
here in long time. Their act is full
of clean, refined comedy and their
strength is something marvellous. The
young lady in the act weighing about
40 pounds losses her partner, WEIGH
ing probably '160 pounds in the air
with the ease and alacrity that one
would toss a doll around. Mr.. Bimbo
shows himself finished athlete in
his wonderful somersaults, while his
knock-about work is second to none.
He has his audience in an uproar of
laughter all of the time, even whilst
they are breathless from watching his
thrilling feats. Women scream and
even men turn pale when he sways
back and forth within barrel placed
upon a pyramid of four tables, and
great relief is felt when he lands upon
his feet and turns a somersault into
the wings. They put on a boxing
match that is a scream.
Besides these wonderful people
there is Dillae & Geyer in their COM
edy sketch who have made such a hit
with the theater going public. Jack
Miller also is not without his boost
ers, while Ration & I.aTour has them
all going Miss LaTour is a hand
some young lady who displays some
wonderful gowns, being one of the
very few to wear a hobble to advan-
tage. Mr.. Ration is a finished musi-
clan and plays several solos upon the
clarionet and saXaphone. Their COM
edy Is good and clean cut.
The Murayscope as usual concludes
the performance.

UnWearicd Life.

Onweartcd Lite.
Why should we ever weary OF this life?
Our souls should widen ever. not con-
tract;
Grow stronger and not harder in the
strife.
Filling each moment with a noble act.
II we live thus, Of viSor all compact,
Doing our duty to our fellow men
And striving rather to eXalt our race
Than our poor selves with earnest hand
or pen.
We shah erect our names a dwelling
place
Which not all ages shall cast down again.
Offspring OF time shall then be born each
hour.
Which, as of old, earth lovingly shall
guard
To live forever in youths perfect flower
And guide her future children heaven
ward.

ian. Is q special indication Of this fact
And the youthful patrons of the public

The establishment OF this department In
the library was probably because Of his
eduiponderant fondness for children and
their desires and books OF all kinds.

Barrow's characteristic traits.
This trait was developed in boyhood and
remained as one Of his chief characteristics
throughout his newspaper work. his bust

ment Of the Union Pacific and as librarian.
In the fall Of 1897 Mr.. Barrows was en-
gagged to do literary work for the national

mat about Nebraska and neighboring
