was all there was to it.
Willie Collier has often said that he
knew he was doomed the third time he
sat in the box at a Tuesday matinee.
There was no reason in the world why
he should want to join the Weber &
Fields Co. He was the most success
full light comedy star on the Ameri-
can stage, but he said he felt it coming
on when he saw both partners looking
at him at the same time. Weber 81

instance. What in the world could in
duce him to join this company? Mr.
Daniels Is worth a million dollars. He
had announced his retirement from the
stage, But just then Lew said to Joe
that they wanted him, and Joe made
his customary response. and while
there We're a thousand and one pieces
Of red tape to be united, he is now
with Weber & Fields.
1t was practically the same way with
Bessie Clayton, the famous dancer. She
had contracted TO play in London and
Paris for the next two years.
Il must keep my foreign engage
ments" she said to every one-every
one except Joe and Lew.
AS she came into the first rehearsal
Of the company she went up to the two
managers, and, looking at them with n
puzzled expression on her face, ex-
claimed:

How They Secured STARS. "

With the opening of Mr. New York,
ESQ.," Weber & Fields outlined a policy
for the guidance of their business, and
they stuck to it, never deviating an
iota. They determined to get the best
possible players. no matter what the
cost, and to spare no money in the cost
Of production. And then, believing that
refined burlesque was the truest, most
difficult Of all dramatic art, besides be-
ing the most amusing, they burlesquea
every new success current in the me-
tropolis.
We'll get Lillian Russell" said Lew
to Joe one afternoon.
Sure" said Joe to Lew.
They got her that evening A few
you noticed Willie Collier up in that
same box every Tuesday matinee?"
Sure" said Joe to Lew.
Hes making tremendous hit in

theater," said Lew to Joe.

vanced toward the animal and whis-
pered softly in It's ear:

The animal actor was quick Of wit,
too, for, although this situation was
not in the play at all, Julia" wagged
her tail. and from that day on the
phrase perhaps he amt that kind Of
a dog" was familiar all over the coun-
try.
Another instance of impromptu
speech was when Lillian Russell APP
ablaZe with diamonds She had never
worn them before and Lew Fields, with
whom her scene was laid. stepped back
in amazement.
you don't look like a woman" he
managed to gasp. you look like Tiff
fany's window"
That phrase was all over the town
in twenty-four hours.
In "Twirly Whirly" there was a scene
where one Of the chorus girls had to
remark to Willie Collier that she was
Virginia Earle Ca comic opera celebrity
then playing at the New York Casino.

making 1t sound like Virginia OIL"
whereupon Mr.. Collier remarked:
"Ah, l am glad TO meet you, Virginia.

Peter Daley was a source Of never
ending JOY to everyone connected with
the hall" He was nothing more than
great big good natured, overgrown
boy. Everybody loved him, and he
knew II, and would do exactly what he
pleased. If the rehearsals were at
night time Peter would generally show
up, but never by any chance If they
were held in the morning. He was the
original "sun-dodger," seldom going to
bed until or o'clock in the morning
Imagine the surprise of all the COM
pany, busy at a rehearsal one day at
noon to see Peter walk in and calmly
survey them.

here?" asked Mr. Fields. who was in
charge OF the rehearsal.

she sighed but I suppose these will

1t was no unusual thing for Weber &
Fields to play to from $1,000 to $4,000
in some of the larger houses, and their
earnings from these tours were enor-
nous. While the profits in New York
were large, and 1t was almost impossi-
Bile to get seats except far in advance,

among the players it is because in the
old days everybody was boss and no
body bossed.

have expected that Sir Sydney would
have taken extra precautions to keep
secret a communication in which he
had written about a lady with what
his cousel described as "entire frank

regard as extreme offensiveness."
Far from taking such precautions, he
had the dispatch put into type and for

tary, with suggestions that they should
be handed to friends of Miss Hay who
might apply for information respect

That fact is patent to any who knows that
strawberry growers operating in the neghborhood of
