It was six hours to the minute from tho time tho first shot was beard to his remoral from the blood-stained oflice to the ambulance in waiting, and all of this time, although suffering intense agonies, while the corps of surgeons examined and operated upon his wounds, he retained his selfpossession, and was, in fact, as cool as if nothing had happened. The surgeons were anxious that he should be put under the influence of chloroform, but he protested, and. while they were probing for the balls, he cave many hints and suggestions an to where they would be likely to find them. Hundreds of his business and personal f riendscalled at the office while the doctors were at work, and more than a score were admitted by his orders. To ono of them, James 15. Scott, of Johnstown fame, he said that he did not propone that his wounds

bhould bother him cmcb; that he expected J to be at the office on Monday. Just after the ball had been dug out of his shoulderblade, he suddenly recollected that he had left several letters on his dek that it was important should go out in the night mail, and, calling a clerk, he instructed that he nhould brtniz them in. persuading the doctor to prop him up, although this accelerated the llow of blood, he attached his signature to the various sheets. Then he was placed on a couch and soon fell into a sound sleep. Awakening shortly before 0 o'clock he summoned all the beads of the various departments and gavo them full and explicit instructions regarding matters that should be attended to on .Monday. He then expressed a desire to be removed to his home. Ihe ambulance from Mercy Hospital was summoned and the patient was gently carried down stairs on a cot. He was covered with blankets, and out ot the bandages that swathed his head and faco his two eyes peeped with what seemed to be an amused expression. As he passed Inspector of Police cyivus, who was at tho front door of the building in command of -a squad of officers, he recognized him and remarked: "I'll bo back on Monday." He was then lifted into the ambulance, three surgeons took positions beside bim. the curtains were drawn, Secretary Lovejoy mounted the seat with the driver, and the vehicle was driven rapidly away towards Homewood. A crowd of over two thousand witnessed the departure, and there were many exclamations of pity and eorrow as the unfortunate man ras being carried across the sidewalk. MIL FIUCK'S BUSINESS CAREER. Udxr lie Came to Do Worth Millions and Be Chairman of the Carnegie Company. Mr. II. C.Frick was born in Favette county, Pennsylvania, In December. 1845. His first business experience was obtained at a very early age in A. Overholt'a whisky distillery, but when he was barely twentyone he was already interested in a cokemakintr. plant, and before long he bad embarked as an operator on his own account, lie made his first big strike about 1872, when, having bnilt a branch railroad from Bradford to Mount Pleasant, he sold it to the Baltimore & Ohio at a handsome profit. The money that he made in this deal he immediately invested in coal land and additional coke-works. 13y January, lSifc?, the coke interests held by him and K. M. and Walton Ferguson had reached such magnitude that Carnegie iiros. & Co. paid Sl.5u0.U0O for a half interest m them. Mr. Frick then bought the Standard company's works, the J. M.. Shoemaker plant and the Counellsville Coal and Coke Company's property, bringing the whole property up to between 20,000 and i,000 acres of land, which, with later purchases, bring their holdings up to more than i5.0X) acres ot the very best coal lands. The company has nearly ten thou-Band-coke ovens. On the death of David A. Stewart, in December, Mr. Andrew Carnegie, recognizing the great business ability of Mr. Frick, ottered him an' interest in the firms of Carnegie & Bros, ana accepted and paid for. lie at once was .made chairman of Carnegie Bros. & Co.. and when all the Carnegie interests were consolidated, July 1, Mr. Frick became ive head of the immense business. Mr. Frick married Miss Child some years aao. und ther have two children, who share with them a beautiful home in tho East Eud. A CAPITALIST lCXTEUMINATOR. Derkinan Said to Be an Anarch'st of the Most Radical Stripe. New York, Jnlyea If the man who is locked up in a Pittsburg jail for the attempt to murder Chairman H. F. Frick, of the Carnegie company, is Alexander Berkniau, formerly of this city, he is an Anarohist of tho most radical stripe. About six years ago Borkman, who is a Russian Jew. came .to this city from Wilna, a town in Kussia. Although he did not become prominent as a leader among; the Anarchists here, he made tkimself conspicuous from his marked radical views against capitalists, and it is said that he attempted to organize a group for the express purpose of going about the country to exterminate capitalists. In lc91 he secured a position in the composing-room of the Freihiet, John Most' paper, where he worked as an apprentice. He had some trouble with the ' f ireman of the composing-room, and was , discharged. He has been idle about the Anarchist haunts in this city for some ' time, and it is said he was seen in the city ' four days ago. In description he is a thin , and insignificant littlo man, with a small, tlurk mustache and wore a slouch hat. He . Uied ulaHBen. . - - The police are of the opinion that Berk- . man was feimpiy an agentof tho Anarchists . beiu and was sent by them to Pittsbnrg . for the xprena tmrpose of killing Mr. Frick. It was said at police headquarters that Inspector Steers received dispatchimmediately after the shooting occurred, ami sent detectives to hunt up the record . of Berkman. Detectives Henley and Wade are at work on the case, and they are working on the theory that llerkmau was scut to Pittsbu. THE NEWS AT HOMESTEAD. -Leader of the Strikers Deplored the ShootIn if, hut Other Saltl "SrT(l Him ltiIii." HuMKStkad, Pa., July 23. The strikers in Homestead were shocked over the bul- . letins announcing the shooting of H. C. . Frick at the hands of an Anarchist in Pittsburg. The first unthinking movement of , Borne of the men was one of condemnation . of Frick. but the cooler bends, and, without exception, the American leaders of the strike, sternly supDreased these indecent manifestations, and were most outspoken in their dcnnnciation of tho attempted murder. George Chumpind said: .'Air. Frick knows, and everybody in Homestead knows my position in this strike. 1 have no iriendship for him, but I havo pity for him, and 1 kuow that the man who shot him was no friend of labor, no matter what he may have thought. We know our rights, but we know that we caunot vindicate them in this wav." The news ot the shooting, though bulletined at the telegraph offices and several other places in Homestead, was strangely Blow in spreading. The first bulletin displayed was at the Western Union in tho uusiutns iiiauici, tv u ere mo lamest crowu, thirty or forty people all told, was gathered. At the other bulletins not more than a dozen persons were ou hand at one time. The playcards in the neighborhoods of the ihiIIb. camp, and strikers' headuuarters were taken down withiu a few minutes after they were posted, the militia officers requesting that such action be taken to allay any excitement. One dramatic incident occurred near the Western Union office. A brawuy steel-worker could not restrain his feelings, but dropped on his knees ou the sidewalk with clasped hands and uplifted eyes to thank God. Friends quickly hustled hira away. While the leaders, when approached by newspaper men, professed to be shocked at the reports of the shooting the rank and file were Itsu diplomatic and expressed such as: 'Served him ritfht." "What eUe could he expect!" and "That's the stnfl." while muttered execrations were frequently heard. The t rick atsault led to a marked increase m the number of deputy eheritl's in Homestead. It alo eaused the abandonment nf nil tnAMtinui ovosn ih.t r t fa a advisory bosrd. This was the regular assembly night for the Munhall Lodge of the Amalgamated Association, tad Koberts Lodge, ox tho same organ

ization, in Homestead. Notices of postponement were distributed early by the officers, who deemed it wise to prevent any hot-headed talk just at present. A massmeeting, under the auspices of the strikers, which was to be held at Dnquesne. was also did away with in advance by the promoters. Expressions of opinions as to the effect of the Frick atlairupon the outcome of the strike were almost unanimous this evening among the men themselves, th militia and the townspeople that it could not be other than damaging, and for this reason, if for no other, it was deplored by tho strikers. A member of the Town Council, who declined to be quoted by name, and who in in sympathy with the men. said he considered it a death blow to their cause. It is only fair to explain, however, that the gentleman has not been sanguine of the result for the men since the announcement that the military would stay here in force till the end. Just before midnight to-ninht the advisory board, through Chairman Crawford, gavo out the following statement: , At a recular rneetlmr of th advisory loard of Homestead, I'a., the following resolutions were formulated aud pa.ed: Whereas, U'e deplore tho act of the individual not connected with our trouble or association; therefore, be It lie?oIvcd, That wo condemn the unlawful act of the wounding of Henry Clay Frick. nnd tender our sympathy hereby, aud, further, be it Resolved. That we spread a copy of this resolution on our minutes, and give a copy to the prows. GUARDING GENERAL 8NOWDEN.

Precautions Taken to Prevent an Attempt on III Life with lloinbu. Homestead, Fa., July 23. To-night Homestead had a new sensation. Measures were being taken to prevent hero a parallel to the Pittsburg horror. The precautions in this caso were not for an official of the Carnegie company, but for one who has held of late, even moro than Mr. Frick, a conspicuous position in the publio eye no less a person that Major-general Snowden. Without any unnecessary ado guards to-night about camp Black, on Shanty Hill, were doubled, and at somo points trebled. In addition to this all outsiders, no matter what their prestige or excuse, were rigorously excluded from within the lines. Certain visitors who were expecting to enjoy an experience of camp life at night were among the number, and will be obliged to wait until less exciting times for a relaxation of military caution sufficient to allow such courtesies. The bitter feeling against General Snowden heaped up day by day, beginning with his repulse to the strikers' committee when the militia were first brought to Homestead, was the reason assigned for the new movement, which was claimed by those in charge to be fully justified by the day's occurrences at Pittsburg. It was argued that without such precaution! it would not be at all out of the line of possibility for any one so disposed to hurl a bomb and blowjup the school-bouse, in whioh the headquarters of General Snowden are located. There is no doubt but that intense resentment toward General Snowden is felt in Homestead, and his breaking up of the procession in honor of liurcees McLuckie and his determined, unbending stand generally, have made him many enemies among tho workmen, some of whom have not hestitated to denounce him as having acted from the lirst in the interest of the Carnegie company, and done everything in his power to provoke the people into conflict with the soldiers. Few of the strikers were aware to-night of the precautions inaugurated, but those who did hear of it were indignant, and at once pronounced it in the nature of an insult to the Homesteaders and an attempt to bring them into'discredit by connecting them, before the public, with the attack on Mr. Frick, or ready to mako a similar attack. CHARY IN THEIR WORDS. Congressmen Would Say Little Concerning: the Trnfredr t Pittftburc Washington, July "The people who will regret this most are the strikers." That was what a prominent Democratic Senator said this afternoon, when the news Hashed over the wires to the Capitol that Mr. Frick had been shot. He expres3od what was in everybody's mind at tho time.' Every whero also there wero expressions of sympathy for the men thus murderously stricken down. But few Senators were in the chamber when the news came of tho shooting of Mr. Frick. They were deeply impressed, and some of them who have been foremost in the debates whibh have taken place on the subject of the relations of capital and labor, and the Homestead troubles, were plunged into a thooghtInl mood. It was a feeling of relief that they received the later dispatches announcing that the act was not committed by any of the strikers, although some of the Senators, who sympathize with the latter, feared that the labor organizations would be held chargeable for the occurrence by many people who jump at conclusions. Senators were not disposed to discuss the matter. Theedectof the news was more noticeable in the House, for little attention was Eaid to the current bu&iness. The memers of the Homestead investigating oommittee who expressed themselves for publication in regard to the e fleet of tbe tragedy at Pittsburg, were very brief in their utterances. They preferred to wait nntil they had heard all the facts in the case before passing judgment upon the matter. tfenrenentative Oat, chairman ef the committee, read the dispatches very carefully aud then said: "I regret very much to hear of this shooting, it adds to the complications already existing. it is not any great surprise to . rae, considering tbe agitated state of mind and the conditions existing between the Carnegie company and tne strikers at Homestead. 1 have been apprehensive all the time that something of this kind would occur. ' It was a very serious situation there, and because of what 1 saw-on my visit 1 was not surprised when 1 heard of the shooting." Representative Brodenck, another member ot theinvestigatingcoinmittee.regnrded the shooting as very unfortunate indeed. It was hard to . tell whether or not tho a flair would have any effect on the labor question. It would not atlect the laboring mans cause unless it was hov a that the man who committed the deed was connected with tho laboring men's organization. If the deed was that of on irresponsible crank, as Mr. Broderick believed it to be, it ought not to aiiect injuriously tho causo of thelaboriug people or that of any ono e ;e. . Two of the three remaining members of the committee were not in the Houho when the reporter sought thrui. and the fifth declined to be interviewed for publication. The Pennsylvania members' in tho Uoune were inclined to tbirtk the trouble a grave one. and ono which they feared might lead to other scenes of disorder. 3IUST PASS SUNDAY IN JAIL. The Hearing; of tho Chics of O'Doonell and Horn Not Cnnrludod Yrarrrty. PlTTnuito, July 23. The hearing on the application for release of Hugh O'Donnell and Hugh Ross, the Homestead strike leaders, began this morning at 10 o'clock, but long before that time the court-room aud hallways were crowded, while croups of men stood around the entrance to the courthouse and discussed the probable outcome. Tho great majority of those in and about the court were men from Homestead, and ou many of their faces wero expressions which indicated much worry and extreme nervousness about the disposition of the case. There were not a few in the room who expressed the boliof that the Common wealth had a strong case against O'Donnell, About forty witneoses were summoned by the Commonwealth, and among them were citizens of Homestead, some of them mill-workers, newsnaper men and members of the .National Guard. Upon the arrival of Jude Magee the prisoners were brought mto court. Doth looked pale but composed. 1 he Commonwealth announced that the application for the discharge of the defendants would be resisted, aud Judge Magee slated that ihe information did not charge murder in the first degree, and until cironmstnneea shew it to be-first degree, it is presumed to be second degree . Tho Commonwealth, ho

said, must produce evidence of first degree murder, otherwise, he said, it would be regarded as a bailable offense. The witnesses were then called. Among the number were several Pinkerton men, including John Cooper ot New York. Frederisk Priineratof Philadelphia, C. V. Hidden of Hrooklyn, and V H. Uent of Chicago. These men testified that O'Donnell

was on the bank before and after the tiring commenced. If. . Herbert, a newspaDer reporter, said O'Donnell was present, but so far as he could see was doing no more in the riot than he Herbert was. hnninel Stewart, a clerk for Carnegie, said that Weihe, Garland and O'Donnell addressed the men, and half an hour later tho men quit tiring, and tho Pinkertons surrendered. At this point the court took a recess for dinner. 1 In the afternoon, after several witnesses had been examined for the Commonwealth, without much that wasnew being adduced, tho Commonwealth rested its case. The defense, through their attorneys, said, according to law, they had no right to onr any testimony, and, therefore, would not do so. Judge Magee asked Mr. Rohb if he had anything to say. as he did not think it was very clear that O'Donnell had participated in the shooting. "There can be no doubt," said -Mr. Kobb, ''that this mau O'Donnell was at the hoad of these people who were on the river bank in the morning when these people1 on the barge attempted to land, and that, while no ono testified that O'Donnell said anything, there is testimony that be was there and leading those peaple. i do sincerely believe that this man should be held for murder in tho first degree." Judge Magee said: "I recognize the ontragea of this mob and the duty of tho court, but I am moved by an opinion of; Judge Roberts, in the celebrated Kensing-. ton riots. This opinion is an excellent one. I will not pass upon the question until 1 read the testimony in the case." This seemed to fall like lead upon tbe feelings of the prisoner. It meant at least that he would not get out of jail until Monday at the shortest. After the arguments, Judge Magee 'adjourned court until Monday, and the prisoners wero remanded to jail. VIEWS OF A MANUFACTURER. Thinks Skilled Workmen Are Paid Too Much Dig; W'ages of Rollers. Boston, July 23. A. F. Huston, vicepresident of the Lnkens Iron and Steel Company, of Philadelphia, with works at Coatesville, Pa., is visiting relatives in Cambridge. Speaking of , the Homestead strike, Mr. Huston said to a reporter: "As regards the merits of the . case, I am in sympathy with the Carnegie company. In the western part of Pennsylvania, in fact the whole of Pennsylvania west of the Al- ' leghenies, the wages of iron and steel-workers have been excessively high, and such labor in Pittsburg and vicinity commands higher wages than in any other plaoe east of it The reason for this is that tbe Amalgamated Association is strong-' er in tho western part of Pennsylvania than anywhere else. An example of tho extraordinary wages paid these skilled workmen is that of Morebead Uros. & Co., of Pittsburg. About a year ago their rollers made over $10,000 in one year, a sum greater thau the total profits of the concern for that length of time. This resulted from the roller' pay being based on tounage and after an introduction of improved machinery on a new system of work, either of which yielded a greater production, the Amalgamated Association objected to a corresDonding adjustment of wages. The firm resisted, and, after a contest was victorious. The circumstances seem to bo very similar in the Carnegie case. My the introduction of new machinery one man is able to handle more tons, but the Amalgated Association insists, nevertheless, on the same rate per ton. The rollers in the. vicinity of Pittsburg are no more skilled than others in the eastern part of the State. As regards the change in tho fiscal year which the Carnegie company proposes, I cannot see how that can s fleet the strikers. 1 do not believe in that partof Pennsylvania, where coal is so cheap, the necessity of the workers ever become sntlioiently pressing to make them contract against their interests. In them tter of the Pinkertons, tho facts are that these men were private citizens, hired as watchmen to guard the Homestead teelworks to guard one's factory at night. If the strikers lired on the men first, they put themselves outeide tks pale of the law. True, it would-be , dieult tc identify these men, and, beyond this, it is probablo it will be difficult to obtain a jury that would convict them." .-. As to the outcome of the strike. Mr. Huston expressed himself as confident that in the end tho strikers would be compelled to yi'jld. tnough it may he months before the works can bo put in operation again. "1 believe the present trouble will subside without any especial results, in the 'same way that the Knights of Labor troubles blow over, several years ago," Mr. Huston said in conclusion. Situation at the Mill. i Pittsburg, July 2a There was nothing new in the general situation to-night, f Affairs at Homestead, Duquesn and Beaver Falls and the Union mills in this city were quiet. At Duquesne all departments were closed. The steamer Tide took np another lot of non-union men to Homestead this afternoon, and they are now all safely behind the big fence. About seven hundred men are now said to be at work, borne of the old men have returned. I The Amalgamated Association received the scale signed by the Illinois Steel Company, this afternoon, and was much elated over it. This concern employs 2,5-10 men', and has a capacity of 120,000 tons per yean Tht) situation at the upper und lower Union mills, Latvrenceville, is practically nnohanged. Hoth sides are confident, and will tight to a tinisb. The mills are etlll shut down, and apparently it is impossible to start them. Lest than a score of nonunion men have offered their services. ; and tbette. with several exceptions, were h firmloss as far as the causo of thov strikers Is concerned. v Probably Canard, o iisntsrci , Pittsburg. July 3. A reporbr'eAeh'ed Homestead to-night that a numberot union steel-workers had mixed with non-union men embarking on the Little Bill at Pittsburg, and when the boat reached Six-mile Ferry, opposite Glenwood, a suburb of Pittsburg, less than two miles from Homestead, the union men had attacked tho others and after throwing some of them overboard had caused tbe rest to be landed. A United Press representative went to Sixmile Ferry and Glenwood to investigate the report, bnt he secured no confirmation of it Teopie living in the vicinity of the supposed occurrence said they had heard nothing of the matter.

delivers Short Addresses to Small Crowds at Stations in New York State. Jlr. Onderwcod Tisits Cleveland and Other Democrats and Urjjes Them to Indorse a Scheme for Fusion in Colorado. New York, July J. There ere many Democrats of great prominence assembled at the Central depot in New York city this forenoon to see Mr. Stevenson off on his teturn trip to Illinois. The special oar bearing the vice-presidential oandidate and his party was attached to the Chics 90 limited of the New York Central railroad, and will reach Chicago at lu o'clock tomorrow. Among Mr. Stevenson7 party was W. H. Onderwood. of Colorado. Th principal mission to the East of Mr. Onder wood has been to confer with ex-President Cleveland and other prominent Democrats on the advisability of the Democrats of Colorado indorsing the People's party candidates for presidential electors in the State of Colorado. To the Associated Press reporter Mr. Onderwood said: I have con ferred fully with ex-President Cleveland, General Stevenson, Hon. W. C. Whitney, Chairman Harrity. of the national com mittee, and Don M. Dickison, and find them all in favor of indorsing the People's party electors in Colorado. x We hope, however. to impose upon the People's party leaden ono condition that If we indorse, their electors it shall be with tho understanding that 11 the election of a President shall be thrown into tho House of Kepresontativee the Colorado electors shall, in the Electoral College, cast their vice-presi dential voto for General Stevenson. It does not follow that the election of the President being throwu into the House of Representatives tho election of tbe Vicepresident is necessarily thrown Jnto tbe Senate. The Senate does not receive jurisdiction over the seleotion of the Vico-pres-ident until after the Electoral College has also balloted on the Vice-presideut and failed to elect. So, it is quite possible for the Electoral Collego to fail to elect a Pres ident, yet be able to elect tbe Vice-presi dent. 1 think with the proposed plan approved by the two national candidates there will be no doubt of the Colorado Democratic convention indorsing the Peo ple's party electoral candidates.1' TI1K "GKXERAL" SPKAK8 AT ALBANY. When "General" Stevenson's train reached Albany several hundred people were congregated in tbe depot yard, and he stepped out on the platform of his car to address them. He said: My Fellow-sltizens I have no words with which to express my appreciation of the courtesy paid to mo tiy tlie Democrats or tne Mato or ew lork.

Cheers. At the conclusion of Mr. Stevenson's speech thecrowd gave three cneers for Stevenson, and immediately followed it up by giving threecheers for Cleveland.

The crowd was assembled on tbe sunny side of tbe train, and some one in the audience suggested that Mr. Stevenson speak from the shady side of tbe car. "No, no." said the vice-presidential candidate quickly, "I will stay here; whatever any other Democrat can stand I ean stand." Continuing, tbe General said: Uentlemen-I waut to say to yon that I appreciate the courtesy yon have shown by this hearty greeting on my return from tho great city of New York. Applause.

The Murderfr ol Lawyer Toston Applies for a Writ of II&bfaiCorptis in the Federal Ccnrt. Xasiivillk. Tenn., July 23. H. Clay King, a prominent lawyer of Memphis, sentenced by the Supreme Court to bo banged on Aug. 12, and in whose behalf great pressure has been brought to bear, applied to tne'Governor for commutation of the sentence to-day, and filed in the United' States Circuit Court of this circuit, a petition for a writ of habeas corpus and obtained from Judge Howell K. Jackson an order upon tbe sheiff of Shelby county to answer the petition on next Wednesday before hira in Nashville. .bx-Attorney-general Garland is counsel for Colonel King in conneotiou with the attorneys who defended him before the State courts. The principal point in the petition for tho writ of habeas corpus is based upon tbe lact that during the trial in the Crimi nal Court of Memphis the jury was permitted to go on an excursion across the river to Arkansas and were thus outside of and beyond tbe jurisdiction of the court during tbe trial. Great interest has been taken in the caseall over this and adjoin ing States, as Colonel King aud the man he killed, Poston. were both prominent law yers of Memphis. The point made is that he was not tried according to the forms of law. ' TROUBLES FROM UNRULY TONGUES. Mrs. Potter, of Wabash Street, Pulls Mrs. Kejidrick's Hair Amsta Will Follow. A qnarrel between two women last Tues day, on Wabash street, has led to a peculiar state of affairs between them, which will probably end in the Police Court It is said warrants have been sworn out for their arrest. The names of tbe participants are Mrs. Porter, living at No. 149 Wabash street, and Leah Kendrick, a boarder or guest. The latter tells the following story: "My maiden name is ruchoison. and 1 have been going under that name in this city My familv are respectable people in New Castle, where I was marnod to a man named Kendrick. Ho abused me and 1 left him and got a divorce. When I came here 1 went to Mrs. Porters to stay, but on last Tuesday I left her house. She baa been telling falsehoods about me, and we bad a quarrel. A Merchant policeman stepped in and separated us. Since then Mrs. Porter has been telling that 1 had made away with a new-born child. The story is absolutely false." ' Dr. Earp. who was called into the case. corroborates the girl's story, as far as tbe child is concerned. He says there is no evidence to support it. Mrs. Kendrick is now about twenty-three years of age, and seems to have seen better days. POOR MKS. POTTER. Iter Latest Play a Failure and the Actress Weary and Discouraged. LonCon Letter. Kyrle bellew and Mrs. Brown Potter maundered througe "Hero and Leander' for two weeks at the Shaftesbury Theater here, and from the time the enrtain tell on the lirst ni gut's performance the play was doomed and tho "notices" given to the company. Mrs. Potter 1 always feel like saying "poor littlo Mrs. Potter," for there is something so infinitely pathetic in her attempts at acting and the remembrance of what she cast asido aud what she reaped Is thinner both as to person and power than erer. There's a querulous, tired look about her mouth and in her eyes now that wasn't there when 1 saw her last in Washington as Cleopatra, and, to quote one of her unprofessional critics, "there's not enoutfh flesh on her to keep her bones from rattling." Since "Hero and Leander" was taken off tbe story goes that Bellew has found a younger, fairer, and plumper leading lady to take her place, and that she will probably return to America and Mr. James Brown Potter, who has kept her room just as she left it. and who has always faithfully believed she would come baok to him as she very probably wilL If she does go, and he in the tenderness of his heart opens tbe door to her and closes it again in the face of public opinion, would not it be a graceful, gentle return, and a most nnworldly one, to forget that there was a misguided, vain, sentimental little woman who recited "'Ostler Joef" One of tho features of "Hero and Leander" was the costuming, or, to put it precisely, tbe lack of costuming. Tradition was faithfully adhered to even to the discarding of fleshings by Leander, who, immediately on his entrance, made one gasp a little, exclaim "No, reallyf" to a whispered question from one's companion, and glne one's eyes to one's opera glasses. He wore laced boots, a clout, and a tonic a short tunic apron on the side. If he wore more it not only deceived the naked eye, but a great many powerful and diligently used opera glasses ' beside. There was a suggestion of the 'Tank drama" about the Dlav. also, when Leander made his last ap pearance very dead, vory wet, and very much undressed. Otlda and Ends.
