•‘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 “If there be anything of the kind, or if the work fail to prove attractive, it will be withdrawn after the first or sec ond performance.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. New York Times. Married at Ninety-two.

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 derson (Ind.) Dispatch. For Old Roofs. For New Roofs ILJr rubber JTSOOFINCX.
