the celebrity which held the wind in
its fists for fifty years. Joseph JEFF
ferson gave us a whole lot of plays
and some several colorless sons es-
Unable but not Jeffersonian by any
means. And whilst we must be rich
ly grateful for all these Jacks and
Ethels and Toms and Sidneys, to say
and E. H. Sotherns flying by on gold
en- wings, still it is arresting to count
the older actor families completely
wiped out and the great ones entirely
shut off after one cometlike sweep
across the armament Of theatrical
stars.
The old time actor papa who pos
ed illustratively as the manager Of
his progeny's career is quite a party
Of the entirely past. Once in a while
a man like Banks Winters, who
sung his way into popularity when
ballads meant music, comes along
with a child wonder.
Right Nursery for Baby Actors.
The nursery for baby actors must
be the dressing room, the dark, scene
struck stage, the long, sleepy time
rehearsals and the eternal boom of
whispering readers studying lines,
gesticulating silences. the place
where faces are made and clothes
tried on, the fencing corner, the fight
ing grasps, "the slap the march,
the lovers sigh in all its bald pre-.
tense, the dancing steps in embryo,
the trial. the confessional where all
the faults of acting are brought out
and forgiven and put in penance.
That kind of life does not hurt a
child, that kind of life never killed
an actors baby nor brought shame
to player mother. Actors children
used to be everybody's care, every
todys pet, everybody's special pupil
and prophecy. Now what in the world
do they do with the kids? They
are deported to granaries and cloist
ers, they are clothed, rightly school
ed, trained into ordinary human be
ings and married off like dubs That
is not the way stormy genius is
| manufactured. I'll wager Jimmy
Hackett never had any other era
die than the lid of his mothers trunk
and his fathers Falstaff pad until he
was big enough to walk. Not that
James is a spectacular example OF
inherited splendor Of talent but he
| is the best we have Of his sort And
he might have been better had he
not been snatched from his makeur
box at the tender age of Il and shov
cd into Yale or Harvard or Cornell
or some other incubator of the ham
mer and tongs man Eddie Sotherr

PLATFORM TOO Low.
People of Elmo Makes Peculiar Re-
quest of Utilities Board.

The public utilities commission re-
ceives some strange and wonderful
protests against railroads in the course
of the year. Probably the most re-
markabie for some time is the one
from Elmo, a little town in Dickinson
county, where they want the depot
platform built higher so that the ladies
can ascer.d to the steps of cars with
more C Jnvenience.
A certain citizen of Elmo had doubt
less read of the trouble in Omaha with
in regard to the height of the car steps
from the ground and the annoyance
and Inconvenience women wearing
hObble skirts have in ascending to the
steps. The Omaha protest was made
to the city council, SO the Elmo man
called on the utilities commission for
help.
This complaint narrates the alarm
ing fact that the Missouri Pacific depot
platform at Elmo is so low that even
with thu little stool placed under the
steps of passenger coach that ladies
f1nd it almost impossible to mount to
the lower step of tho coach. The COM
plainant wants the platform raised a
foot or two.
While the complainant does not go
into TIL mathematics and philosophy
of the matter, yet it is apparent to the
average citizen who has seen a hobble
skirt enveloped about the person of a
woman that the Missouri Pacific is
asking The impossible of it's female
passengers. If the car step is more
than a foot higher than the platform
a derrick ought to be installed on the
car.
The r1odesty of the Elmo complain
ant is commendabie. Instead of re-
manning Indifferent to the embarrass-
ment OF the lady travellers from that
place, or worse still, eXulting in their
Difficult Y. he wants conditions changed
so that they can approach a passenger
coach with dignity and mount the
steps with grace, displaying to the
morbid public no more than a twink
ling view of ankle and silken hose.
The utilities commission is deeply
interested in the complaint from Elmo
and will likely hold special hearing
to order jacks put under that Elmo
depot platform SO that it may be hoist
ed to TIE heights 0. the proprieties

CZAR's WARDROBE COSTLY

The car of Russia is the European
sovereign who spends most on his
wardrobe. The tailor who makes his
ordinary suits says the net annual
profit from them Is $4,000, and the
army tailor who is responsible for the
uniforms and court dress makes $751;
900 year. His majesty never puts
on a suit more than three times, and
each one costs about $50. For silk hats
the car pays $26, and SO a pair for
gloves. Every year, it is stated, he
purchases sable cape costing $2,400.
King George, on the other hand, Is
one of the most economical of living
monarchs, allowing himself only $780,
spent annually by the kaiser on uni
forms alone The German emperor,
however, pays very little attention to
his civil wardrobe. He never pays
more than $35 for a SUIT, which he
thinks nothing of wearing thirty times.
The principal luxury in dress he al
lows himself is in neckties.
With the king of Spain the favorite
article of dress Is silk shirts, in which
he always hunts, and of which he buys
many dozens every year at $50 each.
The most frugal of all the crowned
heads IL the matter of clothing is the
king of Norway, who spends no more
than an ordinary wellto-do citizen.
