5000 or 10000 other people there.

great throng rushed pell nell after

the crowd rushed across the park
wildly and enthusiastically clapping
their hands and shouting. Even a
half dozen padres accelerated their

Is the great stumbling block with
these South American countries.
Night before last Roosevelt gave an
exposition OF this doctrine which
will henceforth alleviate their scru-
piles and fears. He said to them, as
he said here and in Brazil. that the
Monro. doctrine does not apply to
these countries-does not apply to
any American country that had an
efficient and stable government.

ANECDOTES CONCERNING WELL
A Stage Story.

FRANCIS WILSON, whose knowledge
Of stage history is profound, has
an equal knowledge of stage stories.
Apropos OF Hamlet he said the other
night:
Let me tell you an interesting Ham,
let anecdote. A gentleman was travel
ing In a remote region of Belgium. and
happened to pass the night in quaint
medieval town where performance of
Hamlet" was to be given. So, after
dinner at the inn. he went.
THE performance in the primitive lit
tie theater was meritorious, and be-
tween the third and fourth acts the man
ager appeared before the curtain and
said:
Ladies and gentlemen, with your
permission. Hamlet will now search be-
tween the benches for cigar stumps.
this being his benefit
And Hamlet searched" Mr.. Wilson

N TON HARRISON, discussing in

we may sleep under soft, warm blankets

The Uphill Road.

At poets luncheon in Philadelphia
~ Alfred Noyes, the English writer,
said:
due to perseverance and modesty"
Mr.. Noyes smiled.
In fact, in the beginning of my ca
reer,'' he said, Il used to tear up a
poem ten times before I felt satisfied
to submit ii, and | used to submit ii ten
times and then feel satisfied 10 tear it
up
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-05-04

The smile clearly meant that the perch
weighed anything from 100 pounds to a
ton. SO the interviewer did not try 10
guess.
To get Senator Boies renrose of Penn
sylvana 10 talk about his prowess as a
fisherman is like trying TO carry on a
conversation with the oldest sphynx In
Egypt. The senator is taciturn, not to
say clamlike, as regards speech. Yet If
he would he could a tale unfold that
would make every other fishing story in
Congress take a bounding jump into OBJ
livion
The senator is essentially deep-sea
fisherman. Every once in a while he
gets a boat and hunts up a few kindred
spirits. and the party goes off on the
Vastly deep for days and days. The boat
returns laden, not with the minor two
and three Founders which are the de-
light of the inland fisherman, but with
leviathans running anywhere from 80 to
go pounds.

This is more than fishing. 1t is honesE
yeoman work. When il comes to haul

Drawn rules the day. His friends love
to describe him as backed up against
the stern of the boat with his coat OF
and a fishing line about the size OF a
young hawser in his hands, hauling and
pulling for dear life.
When this fishing is conducted the line
is strung a quarter of mile astern and
hauling it in with some fighting monster
at the other end is no simple. childike
task.
Senator Penrose has made several trips
into the wilds of Alaska. He has fished
in the icy streams OF the Yukon district
and has caught tarpon in the warm
waters of Florida Verify he is a fisher
