CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
A REMARKABLE FAMILY OF
ACTORS.
~ A. W. MACY.

in 1853 John WarJ. IN Eng
iish theatrical manager, opposed
match between his daughter
and a member VI his company,
not wishing her to marry an
actor. He finally gave consent,
however, consoline himself wiki
the thought thartrs young man
was not much OF an actor. In
this he was mistaken, for the
young man, whose name was
Roger kemble, not only suo-
eeeded we'll In his profession,
but became the founder Of
family that Is remarkable In tho
annals Of the English stage.
Twelve children were born to
the couple, Of whom eight
reached maturity; and every
one Of the eight made some e.
fort on the stage. The eldest
child, Sarah, became the re-
nowned Mrs. slddons. The old
est son, John Philip, was prob
ably the greatest actor Of his
day, and was known as "the
great KembIe." Tho eleventh
child. Charles, was a renowned
comedian, while his daughter,
Fanny komble, was probably
the best known to the public Of
all the family. Her sister,
Adelaide, attained considerable
popularity as a public singer.
Her son married tho daughter Of
General Grant.

overtime in getting the crowd trans
ferred from one park to the other, but
the delays were few and never bother
some. During the dinner hour an or.
chestra played in the pavilion, nor when
the last vestige had disappeared from
the commissary did the musicians cease
to play. A piano, the Garments own in
strument, by the way, did much to make
the music enjoyable and it was very
essential adjunct to the picnic when the
pavilion was cleared for dancing and the
'un began. Long into the evening the
lance continued and it was near the be-

Tenney Service People Had Sports, Then
They Ate Clans, and Finally They
Daneed-It Was Big Day

Tenney service in central Vermont
held its first annual outing at Intercity
and Dewey parks yesterday afternoon
and evening, when representative gath
ering OF employees and officials forgot the
cares of this workaday world and aban-
doned themselves to the carefree pursuit
of pleasure. Intercity park was the
spot chosen for the games and thither
went company of some so people, in
Guiding women employees OF the service,
soon after noontime. Both the Barre
and Montpelier offices were closed at
o'clock, while the Tenney power plants
and the cars on the inteTurban traction
line, part and parcel Of tho service here
abouts, were operated with the least
number OF men that could be used with
ont impairing the service.
Down from the Molly's falls plant in
the vieinage of Marshfeld, from Water
bury, Bolton and the inter cities came
the picniekers, bent only on making of
the outing a whopping success. A work
ing committee headed by c. J. Cookson
of the lighting company and w. f. Cory
of the traction line had things ready
for the cutters by the time they arrived.
Early in the afternoon interest eentered
principally around the track events.
Some of the limberest and most agile
fellows in the service were ready for
action at the first crack of the pistol
.or the 75-yard dash. Before either the
