He didn't wear that look over the frao-

questions again.
Did go on the stage when was very
young?" he gabbled in q machine made

Yes. did. was Just twenty"
Were my parents in sympathy?"
"Oh, they were quite Indifferent"
HE NIPPED 1T IN THE BUD.
Now, I've no doubt that there is an
interesting story back Of that statement.
and I opened my mouth to force a query
upon him. but. bless your heart, he didn't
give me a chance to get a word in edge
ways. He simply took a header on to the
next question.

Horrible! and I never get over 1t; same
thing every time play a new part? He
gave his head q despondent little shake.
But that was enough said. He dis
missed the subject and mumbled the next
as If he were learning a lesson,
A QUERY IN THE ASH HEAP.
DO YOU think the French stage de-

He Strengthened his glasses a little con-
sciously.

the window. ....
SELFISH WITH HIS CHANCES.

about II, that he never did look at me

He gave a little nod and closed the
chapter.
The next question was. Don't you think
that French artists act with more reserve
now than they did formerly"

French-"Barkis est complaisant" doesn't
sound right somehow.
A CONDENSED EXPLANATION.
Anyway. he didn't care: he decided for
himself that he had a few moments in
which to say something about the French
stage. SO he ratified on a few parts Of
speech. -.
"Of course. We play with more reserve
nowadays" he declared. plays Of the
present demand It. The drama Of Victor
Hugo as interpreted by Mounet-sully
called for broad gestures, much declama-

He looked puzzled as he ran his eve
over the next question.

quired quickly. You ask me whom I con-
slider the most able producer among the

in that?"
YES" I responded, sweetly. though I
was rather nettled. What I mean ID,

subject. for my spirit is not easily broken,

A SUBJECT UNDER THE BAN.

The Godfather of :he interview was
rather nervous about 1t. anyhow.
Whatever you do he said to me in a
stage whisper just before the Great Actor
came, don't ask him anything about the
Coincide FRANCHISE. He has only con-
sented to give you this interview because
he thinks that, being an American. you
won't bother him about that matter"
Oh, these solar pleXus blows!
o OF course l wanted to ask him about the
Coincide Francaise and the punishment
in the shape of a heavy fine which is to
be meted out to him for running away
from his duties there and acting at an
other Paris theatre not mile away.
when he knows that the municipality for
bids it. And I wanted to question him as
TO why he got peeved with the Coincide
in the first place. but. alas! 1 was on me
honor, and the golden moment passed. so
I shall never hear the truth from his own
lips.
All I could do under these distressing
circumstances was to give little gasp of
dismay and tumble for my notes so as to
scratch out Coincide Francaise," which
was there in big letters.
