Partnership Follows Meeting ,at Min
strel Parade.

Montgomery and Stone, who come to
the National next week in Charles Dill
.lingham's production Of "Chin Chin" are
probably today the most famous team of
musical comedy entertainers In the world.
Their names are familiar to all classes
Of playgoers and their infrequent visits
to this city are always fraught with the
liveliest interest. In times gone by thea
ter patrons have been more or less IA
milliar with such partnership players as
Weber and Fields. Murray and Mack.
Evans and Hoey, Hallen and Hart. Nc
Intyre and Heath. Harrigan and Hart,
Reed and Hoiher. and many others. but
practically all of these have gone the
way of all flesh or else have separated
professionally. But Montgomery and
stone have gone merrily along. never
deviating from the style Of entertainment
which they inaugurated when they first
Joined hands In q little one-horse town
in Texas twenty years ago.
And this Joining was really an accident,
for Stone happened to stand on a curb
when q minstrel parade passed by and
recognized q boy he had known years
before in Texas. when Stone was with a
dog and pony show doing a tight wire act,
and Montgomery was with a strolling
variety show. They met after the parade
and shortly thereafter was formed the
firm Of Montgomery and Stone that has
remained intact all Of these years, with
out one single break in the cordiality Of
their business or personal relations.
When the long seasons are over. Mont
gomery goes one way and Stone another.
By no chance do they ever meet during
these vacations. They plan things SO It
will be impossible. and then, when the
next season opens, they meet again and
occupy the same dressing rooms at all
theatera

Now Police Are Seeking Dealer In
"War Bride"

Not so long since dashing young
Mexican general" fur1oughed him
self form the warning camps Of the
saddle-colored PARROTS south OF the
Rio Grande, and betook himself To
Chicago with an important commits
sion to perform. In the course Of his
rambles about the streets of our thriv-
ing city the general" called upon H
p. Epstein who conducts a pawnshop
at SIS West Madison street.
AS the general explained, he was
a blunt soldier, not skilled In the pur-
suits of barter and trade. Though
rich, he was embarrassed for fmme-
date funds, the currency of Mr.. villa
being valuable only upon such occa-
sions as it might be mistaken for CT
gar coupons. The general exhibited
a small fortune of this money which
he offered to dispose Of, IT is said. for
the ridiculous sum of FIVE cents ON
the dollar.
While war brides are little out
of his line, Mr.. Epstein's business
sagacity would not permit him to
overlook a bargain like this He
bought valise full of the pretty
villa Autographs.
The dapper general" then called
on M. Stein, sos South State street,
and Adolph Koss, 81 West Madison
street, and executed like transactions
The attention Of Government on
Gals recently was called to the -fack
that these three pawnshops were SELL
ing Villa currency at ten cents ON the
dollar. Since the recognition Of the

pig was on his mettle. With anoth-
er hoarse grunt he made straight
for the tiger, who dexterously elud-
ed the charge, and, quick as cat,
doubled on himself and alighted
clean on the boar's back. He sank
his teeth in the boar's shoulders,
tearing and biting great mouthfuls
of flesh from the back of his mad
dened enemy. He seemed to be hav-
ing all the best of 1t, so much so that
the boar stumbled and fell forward,
whether by accident or design I
know not; but the effect was to throw
the tiger clean over his head on the
ground.
/ almost shouted, aha! Now you
have him!" for the tables were turn
ed. Getting his forefeet on the IT,
gers PROSTATE carcass, the boar gave
two or three short, ripping gashes
with his strong white tusks that al
most disemboweled his foe; and then,
exhausted by the effort, he stagger-
ed aside and lay down, painting and
champing his tushes, but still def
ant, with his head to the foe.

A Battle i'm The Jungle.

In an unusually interesting volume
of "reminiscences, entitled Memories
of India" Sir Robert Baden-Powell
quotes this description of pitched
battle between a tiger and boar
that a Mr.. Inglis watched from q
hiding place near pool of water: r
When the boar saw the tiger the
latter roared. But the old boar did
not seem to mind the roar SO very
much. He repeated his hoo! hoo"
in an even more aggressive. insult
ing and defiant manner. Nay. he ac-
tually advanced with short, sharp
rush in the direction of the striped
intruder. Intently peering. through
the indistinct light. we eagerly watch
ed the strange conflict. Crouching
low, the tiger crawled stealthiiy
round and round the boar. which
changed front with every movement
Of his 1.-THE adversary and kept his
determined head and sharp, deadly
tusks ever facing the foe. The
bristles of the boar's back stood
at a right angle to his strong
spine. His wedge-shaped head was
bent low. and the whole attitude of
the beast betokened alertness and
angry resolution.
In. their circling the two animals
were now nearer to each other and
nearer to us. and we could see every
movement plainly.
Crouching still lower and gather
ing his sinewy limbs beneath him. the
tiger suddenly startled the stiffness
with a loud roar. and sprang upon
the boar. With one dexterous sweep
of his strong paw the tiger fetched
the boar a terrific slap right across
the jaw that made the strong beast
reel; but he replied with hoarse
grunt of defiance. and with two or
three sharp thrusts with his cruel
tusks marked the tigers coat with
more stripes than nature had ever
painted there. Presently both COM
batants were streaming with gore.
The tigers tremendous buffet had
torn flesh and skin away from the
boar's cheek and forehead. and left
a great ugly flap that hung over his
