New Leading Man.

Ladies and Gentlemen: This is to in
troduce Mr.. Howard Chase, the new
leading man who will appear on the
al present undecided bill with North
Brothers, at the Majestic week after
next. He has been playing leads with
the stock company at the Glitch Card
ems, Denver, Col. He is fine looking
medium height, well built, hair which
leans toward being dark, and dark
blue eyes. He looks like he could be
guilty of matinee idoling If he had to.
He came originally from Detroit, Mich.
Has been in theatrical work for several
years with North Brothers a couple
seasons SO the Norths, who recon1nen
him highly, ought to know whereof
they speak This may be unimportant,
but it is interesting: He is not married
His ways are easy. He gives you the
impression that he would never tear
passion to tatters, or execute Highland
filings and Swedish gymnastics unless
the part demanded it imperatively
Mr.. Chase also has a great deal of
magnetism and the often mentioned
pleasing personality. without his say
ing so himself he gives you the idea
that he viii make good.

walked in unexpectedly the other day
to be received by Sarah, while Mr.
Bowser was still upstairs. Without his
dreaming of my presence, he called to
her from the upper hall:
"By thunder, Sarah, If you have
thrown my socks out of the window
why don't you come UP and throw the
rest of my clothes after them?"
No attention was paid to his re-
marks, and after humping around for
two or three minutes he called again:
woman, you have been selling my
collars and cuffs to a tramp again! I've
hunted for naII an nouf ana can ma
theml"
He expected Mrs Bowser to come
rushing upstairs and find his things,
and she had started to do so when
told her to sit down right where she
was and let him whoop and be hanged
to him. It wasn't long before he was
yelling again:
do you hear me down there. or
have got to yell the roof off! Is this
a house or a wigwam? I've finally
found a collar, but it's 30 rods too long
for me, and I want to know what in
blazes is the matter!"
Sarah would have answered, but I
hushed her. and for the next 10 min
utes we heard nothing more. Then
Mr.. Bowser came down with a tread
that shook the whole house. AS he
reached the sitting room he exploded
with:

times and got no answeri BY the great
