The advertisement callod folp fifty attractive girls, aged from 12 to" 16. to appear in the palace «ccne of "Cinder »lla." They wore requested to apply at o'clock on Tnewday afternoon at the -£bctfc avenue entrance of Booth's Theatre. Applicants began to appear long
that hour, but they did not In all $mw answer readily to the term "attractive," neither w«re«they,all as vounj? :i* 10, judging by appearance.

"Are vou not more than lti, malam?" ho saidto a Hmall, faded Worntn whoso chocks were shrunken, though (•looming, and around whose eyes were it a few crow'H feet. "Of rotiinc,'"she replied briskly. "You r^ti tell that well enough, but I «aui uuikr- up young.

At 1:30 o'clock the stag" wan crowded with applicants for position**. There were at lettMt 150 glrlf^,there, ranging froiit the mite of Ave yean* to the matron of tifty, and of much divomty of appearuiitio. Xeurlv all of them were comfortably dad, and the majority ol children wore ^, and well behaved. Certain deception* wm» evidently undertaken. They were girls, apparently over 18 years, judging by their faces, but mfrre chits, judging by their dreason, which wore a* short an those of somo of the little ones. Thoso old girls woro waterproofs moat of the time—long waterproof* that reached nearly to the ground. Thoy seemed to feel more at mno when thoy woro them, and with them on thoy looked like young women. They discarded them when they stepped forward for inspection.

Mr. Jeorge Fawcett Howe, the author and actor, was the judge and arbiter of lu fates of theae»lIefitod young persons, lie waa the nun around whom all these feminine satellites revolved. When he ventured on the Stage, they thronged around him, each eager to present her claims for ministerial consideration. When he went Into the nuditorum, they ranged themselves* in a long line across the stage, a* near to the front an possible. "Thorn's lots of'em wo don't want," he said dolefully. "I don't want to say no, though. 1 hate to disappoint thopoo'r thing*. We give little enough certainly, but tney soom anxious for that llttlo. Now, what can I do with that tall girl there? She won't do, oven if she isn't ten years old. We must. slzo'om up. I^ouls, (to the mil boy), bring up the most promising."
So naying he took his stand at the Uick of *th\y»tage, and Ijouis selected two very pretty, woll-dressed children, and they went*to Mr. Howe. They were as self-possessed as young women of twen-ty-nine, spoke with retlned accent, and gave names that suggested the stage at once. They were no novices. 5an you stay out after lOMat night?" asked the manager. 'hie children grinned, as though the question waa absurd. "My sister comes for mo," said one. "I can stay," said the other. "Have you a white dress?" asked Mr. Howe. "Yes, sir, but it ia too short." "Too short! The idea! How can anything bo too short for a mite like Tim?"
Hut it don't come to my knees, "Oh, that'll do very well. Now ran right away home. You'll get a card whon toxi are wanted. What do you want, madam?" to a plainly drawed, middleaged woman, "I've got my two girls here."' "Then you don't want to go on as •«hild yourself?" "Well. I think know to much for that. Yea, air, they've got 'em. Thank vou. Don't you want another girl? l*re got one at homo five years old. Khe's real smart." "No, no no Ave rear olds. Wo'd have the Society for the Prevention of tonicity to Children down upon us in a jlffV. 'How old are you, child?" to a Mjj^evod, pathetic looking girl, who trembled as she mid: "Twelve next month, air." "You're rather young. The Society won't lot you act." "Please, sir. let mo. I can do it, I'm mire. It Isn't nsrd, ialt?" "Hard? No. You just walk on and ia stand around in
run off In one act, anc another. But vou are too young, the Societ: ktv Societv saya, and the Society knows best, my dear." Hie child turned away vary sorrowfully.
A grmv-hairea woman in black held the hand of a little girl, and the two looked around the big stage if it were TI49W IO UMMI« "Your little girl's too young, madam too voung. We hare plenty here beiwem twelve and sixteen, and we «an*t take her. I'm aorrjr, too. Hard linea, aint it? (Turning to the reporter.) That woman need* the money her child would earn. Hang it, I wiah I could hire them all."
He had no difficulty in aecoriug all the flhitdron he wished, and aright goodlooking lot of little women they were, as fast aa their name* we registered

"Hush, my dear, don't speak so loud," Raid the manager, for the girla had collected in a throng. She paid no attention to them. "I can't help it, I am so much in earnest. I know that several good actors havo begun away down, and 1 am willing to. I know that it will be very hard work, bat I'll do it. Mease give me a chance."
The listening girla stopped laughing for this girl waa pathetic in her appeals "All right, my dear. I can give you Momething, but you'll have very little to do- rdy to walk off and on." "(ih, thank yon. God bless von and she hurried off, leaving the mana ger ml in the face and moist in the eyes "In. all my experience," he said, "1 never haw a more pathetic case than that. The girl ia evidently too ill to woric hard, but iter pluck i« tremendous, Poor thing!"

New Orleans IMcayucc.
The jiersons who went la^l night to itness the tight rope performance in front of the Academy of Music, were very near being spectators of one of those horrible accidents which of late ycara arb occurring to frequently.
The showers had wetted the rope that had been stretched across the street until it was as slippery as if woven of glass Notwithstanding this fact, when the hour arrived for the inhibition, the per former appeared and amiouin-vd th:it lie would attempt his iJ^rilods fait. The -row4 flu«rwi iiiui for his pluck, tlie lurtid struck tip a lively air, and with a bovy

Then the rope slackened and the horri fied crowd Ijcneath him saw him reel and stagger like a drunken man as he at tempted in vain to keep his equilibrium liefore the crowd could witch its breath Hufliciently to cry out ho fell, but dex trouslv caught the rof« by one hand still Holding his pole, however, in the other. It took but a second to convince him that tho pole was too heavy. Ho re leased it and it fell among the frightened mass below. Fortunately no one was hurt.
Tho crowd now expected that ho would return, but, instead of doing so, Leslie remained giving an exhibition of his agility and skill. lie was evident, howover, that his strength was fast leaving him.
Suddenly lie desisted, and began slowly to clirtib Iack to tho Aeademy. When ho came to the point nearest to that build ing at which ono of the three sets of stay rope* was fastened, he becamocompletely dcmorali7.ed and paused to rest. As he sat on the rope his whole form quivered and shook with excitement.
Twice ho essayed to continued his torrible climb to tho roof of tho Academy, and oach timo his complete nervousness and {lerilous position rendered him un tit for the attempt. But at last, appa rently realizing that the attempt must be inado shortly or ho would fall, ho strung his nerves for a final attempt. The un happy man clung to the ropo as only a man can cling with but tho tenacity of his grasp to savo him from au awful death. As he neared tho ond of tho rope his efforts becamo feebler and feebler and when ho was within a fow foot of tho building a ropo was thrown to him which he clutched and held to as If this obstinate hold was his llfo-grasp, the last effort of desperate nature.
For a second ho hung suspondod, and the crowd almost screamed with tho agony of the moment, but as ho was drawn over tho edge of tho roof such a yell wont upas for many a day had not eloched along old St. Charles street.

ERIORMANCE IN OLDEN TIMES.
THE P: Rftigmafiter Robert Eilingham, veteran showman, who has
a
con
nected with the arras business sineo 1836, recalls many experiences of earlier days. "I first entered the show business," he said the other day, "1836. There were some shows in this country before that time, as early as 1S33—Howe and Brown's and a few others. I entered the show as singer—a delineator of negro character. There were no minstrels in those days, but minstrel singers nsed to travel witn the shows. Tney were performing in New York city when I joined the show, and after that they traveled through eastern cities, through Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland and the South. There were altogether about forty or Afty horses in the show. We had no menagerie. Such things were unknown in those days in connection with circuses although some showmen traveled about with wild beasts which they exhibited in the rural towns. The principal performers in our circus were Nap 'con and Timothy Turner, «Kris of tho proprietor. They both were riders one of them rode single horse and the other rode two and sometimes four horses. There were no bareback riders in those days, and the Turner boys always used saddles. The other attractions were Signor Vivalli, tho plate spinner, whom Barnum mentions in his book, and Joe Pentland, the clown. There was also a man named Leicester, a remarkable delineator o# negro character, who used to give concerts in a tent outside, and sing old plantation and negro songs. Wore there any trapeze performances? Ob, no! There was no aerial j)erformances, no jumping or leaping in those days. All thoy did in tliat way was to walk and danoc and leap over hurdlon on stilts. After that, between 1837 and 1830, circuses and menageries combined. Prior to that time the menageries wero as large and almost as complete as the menagerie of to-day but they were distinct from tho circuses. "About 1840 tho circus business took a sudden start, and made tapid strides. Tho menageries wero enlarged, new attractions were added and newspaper advertising became more general and extensive. Gilded advertising wagons, with handbills and posters were also sent out into tho rural districts. Everything was enlarged and embellished. Tho business may bo said to have taken its start from that time. Trampoline performances came into vogue. The performance consists in leaping from a board ovor a row of horses on to another board and turning a somersault from that. "The next innovation was stillvaulting performance, which consisted of turning a number of somersaults from a board. Somo performers were so proficient that they could leap on aboard and turn eighty or ninety somersaults in succession around the ring, and one man turned as many as a hundred. North, McFarlane andO'lialo were celebrated still-vaulters. This performance continued to bo popular for ten or fifteen years, and then it passed away. Tho next great feature of the show business was a pageant of elephants, camels and horses in tho grand entry. Aerial performances wero of later date. Thoy liogan about 1855. Barebaek riding began about 1844. It improved gradually to leaping through hoops and turning somersaults from tho backs of horses.. The clown was always a feature of the show, but tho clowns of early days were always performers—not as they now arc, only singers. Thoy used to do more than to sing comic songs and crack jokes. Firing offa loaded cannon is a recent innovation. Tho greatest advancement is in tho employment of odueatcd men for all positions of trust and responsibility, Tho managers and press agentsand oversoors are all educated men, thoroughly acquainted with the duties which thoy are called upon to discharge. Even the helpers must be thoroughly competent men."

A HEAP OF TROUBLE popular Georgia minister recently sod the night with a backwoodsman, whose house contained only to rooms. The family, however, consisted of twenty-one, though owing to a dance in tho neighborhood, only seventeen of the childitm were at home. The minister spent the night with the father and seven sons in ona room, while the old lady and ten daughters occupied the other, tn the morning, a junior member of the family, in response to an application for a waahbowL brought him an old rusty tin pan, and after the face toilet waa complete, hunted up shout seven teeth of an old tucking com]3 for him to arrange his hair with.
