•‘BLAINE, A TRAGEDY.”
A Drama For the Stage, Which Will Not
Be Enacted In New York.
An American playwriter has been for
some time engaged in the composition
of a drama of contemporary life in
which the chief character is to boa fa
mous American statesman, now deceas
ed. The title which he has chosen for
it is “Blaine, a Tragedy. ” It certainly
looks like bad taste to dramatize, at
least in this generation, the career of
the American here named, but the au
thor maintains that he can do it inof
fensively and in snch away as to dig
nify his subject, as the life of Mr. Blaine
was full of dramatic material, and as
there were scones in it which Would be
especially serviceable for a drama of
real life. He says that Shakespeare made
use of personages who lived not long
before his time, and even of some who
were his contemporaries, and he gives
the names of other play writers who have
used their acquaintances in their stage
compositions. When reminded that even
the greatest and most picturesque Amer
icans of past times, from the days of
Washington to those of Lincoln, had
never been used successfully for dramat
ic material, as Shakespeare used the
kings of England, he replied that this
was a thing which would surely yet be
done in this country, as it has been done
in other lands, and that, in any event,
it is his purpose to begin the undertak
ing.
“Is there any manager in New York, ”
we asked, “who would bring out your
tragedy?”
‘‘l do not know, but there is a man
ager in Chicago who will bring it out
if it suits him. ”
“Do you not fear that there would bo
a storm of popular reprobation if you
should make your chief character re
semble the original?”
“If there be anything of the kind, or
if the work fail to prove attractive, it
will be withdrawn after the first or sec
ond performance. But there are in my
subject such striking elements for a first
class stage drama and for a winning
one that I shall not think of its failure
until after it has failed.”
“Would not the relatives of the de
ceased statesman object to the work and
get out an injunction against its per
formance?”
“If such an objection shall be raised
by any one entitled to speak with au
thority, or after that one has been pres
ent at a performance of it, it will be
discontinued. The man of my title role
has been a subject for painters, sculptors
and other artists, and there is no good
reason why he should not be made a
subject for dramatic artists. ”
After the playwriter had expressed
the views here reported, The Sun report
er asked a theatrical manager as to the
prospects of a drama of the kind spoken
of. He answered that he did not believe
a single respectable manager in New
York or anywhere else would bring it
out, and that, if brought out in any
American city, it would be a flat fail
ure. He believed that the execution of
the playwriter’s project would not be
tolerated by the theater going communi
ty.—New York Sun.
SENTIMENTAL FLAPDOODLE.
- v An American Family, Including a Dog,
Make a Sensation In Paris.
An American family in Paris, accord
ing to Le Temps, has excited some no
tice in that sensation loving capital by
its conduct over the death of a dog. The
animal was a great pet in the family,
and on his falling ill all the experts in
dog maladies were at once summoned.
As he persistently grew worse, he was
taken to an establishment for the care
of dogs, a sort of private hospital, and
orders given that every attention and
effort should be made to save him.
Members of the family called two and
three times a day to inquire for Kwik,
as the dog was called; but, despite all
care, Kwik died, and there was nothing
left for the sorrowing family to do but
bury him. An undertaker was summon
ed and poor Kwik made ready for the
grave. An oak casket, fitted into a sec
ond one of lead, was prepared and a
grave made in tho private plot of a
friend of Kwik’s master at Vaucresson.
All official red tape was duly complied
with, and on the day of the interment
the funeral cortege comprised three car
riages.
The ceremony ended, the undertaker’s
bill of S9O was duly presented. This
Kwik’s mourners found so very moder
ate that the sum of S4O was added to
be divided among the gravediggers.

a rauietic Tragedy.
At the performance of the pantomime '
“Dick Whittington” at a London thea
ter on Wednesday evening the leading
actress, Kitty Tirrell, had just spoken
a few lines, ending with, “His road to
fortune he’ll pave o’er my corse, ” when
she fell in a faint, was carried out and
died in her dressing room a few min
utes later. Her husband, Harry Ewins,
who played the clown as King Bat, had
to appear during the rest of the per
formance as if nothing had happened.
What makes the pathetic tragedy more
than of local interest is the fact that
the doctors testified at the inquest that
the woman’s death was undoubtedly
caused by tight lacing. The pressure
was so great that her heart stopped
beating. —London Correspondent.
He Hears With His Fingers.
James, the 10-year-old son of John
Hartman, a farmer south of this city,
had spinal meningitis one year ago and
was left practically deaf. Several
months ago he happened to place his
hand on his mother’s throat while she
was talking and found he could under
stand everything she said. He experi
mented with others and found that the
sense of touch in his case would make
up for the deficiency in hearing. He cul
tivated it and now is able to hold con
versation by placing his hand upon the
throat of those he is talking with. He
places the ball of the fingers upon the
larynx and understands perfectly.—An
