nOW TO MAKE D'P.
Every Man Kia Own Actor or the Com
plete Guide to Character.
From </? Burton Globe.
First he powii rwl his throat and fare and
then added a coat of Dutch pink, which
furnished a good background. A strong
burnt umber line under the eyes, ami a
eounle of lines with the same tint front the
qorners of the eyes relieved his face of un
rkjrtainty, and made it look like a stenciled
cbroiuo with two, colors applied. A little
burnt umber under the eyebrows and well
into the hollow of the eyes produced another
change, giving them a deep-set appearance;
and a heavy blacking of the eyebrows, mak
ing them droop over the eyes, supplied the
beetled-browed requisite. A tinge of rouge
under the eyelids and under the eyes, two or
throe sweeps over the chin and cheeks with
a stick of blue, after which the hand was
rubbed over the same, as if everything was
to be spoiled, but which instead simply gave
the face a dirty and unshaved appearance,
practically completed the character, but a
black wig and a fringe of whiskers under
the chin made it more perfect. Beeswax
pinched over the teeth, color under the low
er lip, and an artistic touch on the nose,
breaking it, gave the face a frightful ap
pearance, while a little red on the cheeks
and nose, and a heavier, darker red on the
end of the nose and in spots on the same,
with heavy black in the nostrils, effected
another change, producing a sot from whom
any child in the country would run in terror.
These are all for the very low Irishman, the
variety comedian. The make-up of the
more perfect Irish character presented by
Scanlan, Murphy and Verner is much
easier. In that all that is necessary is to
powder and rouge as before, give the cheeks
a healjtiy, ruddy appearance with carmine,
draw a line under the lower eyelashes with
burnt umber, touch up the eyebrows slightly
and apply a light tinge of blue to the chin
and throat. This, with a curly wig, makes
a first-class Irish patriot.
The Irish is really the best make-up on
the stage, as it gives more scope, but
others are as effectively represented, and
with decidely less trouble. Take the German,
for instance. Germans, as a general thing,
tare of fair complexion, and all that is neces
sary to make a German phiz is to powder
the face and throat, give the cheeks a slight
tinge of carmine for a young man, and
tinge of blue on the chin and whiskers line
on the cheek for an old man, and a burnt
umber line under the lower eyelashes. An
appropriate wig, with whiskers, if desired
or suitable, does the rest. The same rule
applies to the Scotchman, only he is more
florid, and a high color must be given to the
cheeks and care taken to have the whiskers
and hair sandy, which, with natural hair,
can be done with soap aud carmine. The
Frenchman, too, is an easy make-up, though
care must be taken on the' nose. This how
ever, is easy-, as once seen it is easy to break
or bend the nose at pleasure, a streak of light
fed properly directed performing the service.
In the beginning the groundwork of powder
must be put on the face and throat, after
which a light coat of the darker rouge is
applied, with brighter carmine on the
cheeks. Then a darker line of burnt umber
is drawn under the eyelashes, the eyebrows
pencilled and arched in India ink, a curled
moustache and a light imperial adjusted
and the character is complete. A mouchard
is made very much the same as a low Irish
man by doubling the first process. The
most essential, however, is to take off the
gentlemanly moustache and imperial, re
place them with heavy ones, make the eye
brows very heavy and then the complexion
darker and swarthy.
The Jew does not depend sa much on paint
as other chararacters, as the effect can b)
given almost entirely with whiskers, wg
and false nose. However, the effect is
better if the face anu throat are powdersd,
given a tinge of pink, with rouge on the
cheeks, burnt umber undtr the eyelaihes
and lines of the same on Hie forehead and
from the corners of the eyet. In the absence
of a false nose or a court-piaster bridge,
which is often employed tie nooked appear
ance is obtained by shading above the bridge
into the corners of the yes with burnt
umber painting under the eyebrows mth
the same, and defining she nostrils with
India ink. An exaggerilion of this, the
lines darker and the lover lip thickened by
the use of carmine, woduoes a low or
comedy Jew The ne.ro minstrel needs
simply carmine aud grasy burnt cork. The
latter is rubbed over ad into the face, and
carmine strongly applid under the eyes, on
the cheeks, as a negro ist look bright, and
simply dull black woujl not answer.
A negro comedian'or actor needs, in
addition, a stick of In<a ink with which to
put on the lines to lid cate age, etc., after
which the minstrel cdting is put on. The
mulatto differs from ni-s, in that a mixture
of burnt cork and Sjuigolian is made with
cream, beer or wger, though the latter
does not produce a rood effect, and this is
applied with a spoife or cloth. Carmine is
then added oil the peeks, and the eyelashes
and tlie brows coifed with India ink.
The creole is sll different. Powder is
very strongly apflied, then the Mongolian
"Without having pen specially mixed, with
carmine on the peeks. The eyebrows aud
moustache are /articular features in this,
and they must fa very wolt colored with
India ink. Tty Indian is produced by the
same process as the mulatto, except that
burnt cork Is jeffc out of the mixture. The
production of a Chinaman is almost entirely
tn the eyes, hut is more simple than it looks.
The face is washed in a mixture of a small
part of Mongolian and pink, and then the
India ink does the rest of the work, two
lines from the inner comers of the eyes
around to the outer comer giving them the
almond-shaped appearance, a circle on the
nostrils enlarging them, and a dark color on
the hollow centre above the upper lip
completing it. Glue tlys eyebrows down
and naint them, and you have a Celestial
who would have to to smuggled into this
country and would bi honored at home.
The clown has an easy make-up, compar
atively but still a difficult one, as much of
his success lies inkis appearance. Because
of this fact diretdoiis for the groundwork
are ali that can he given, the rest must tie
left to the iupomity ot tho down. The
whiting and [oai'l powder of course give
fhk. ground work. The down first puts the
whiling irnind the mouth leaving the
lips clear,!d then closing the eyes, rubs it
on tham. Wrer and under the lids.

CHANGES IN THE HOUSE.
Altertione in Membership and Ma
jority- The Veterans.
Aom the yew York Evening Port.
WasUngton, Dec. 5. —The list of miss
ing face in the House of Representatives is
a long oi*. The sliding scale of majorities
is not nice noticeable thau the changes of
membersip of this body. A few years ago
the Reputjeans had a two-thirds majority
in the Houe. Four years ago the Demo
crats had , majority of seventy. Now
their mu jolty is not more than eleven.
The clerk ofthe Forty-ninth Congress, who
calls the rollif the new House, has stricken
from his ol list the names of many
who have beejne prominent figures in our
national life, >f whom some have wholly
retired from politics, and some have
entered other bids of jiolitical actjpity, and
a few have gon to join the great majority
which never gows less. There are a few
patriarchs left in the Fiftieth Congress.
Judge Kelley,o! Pennsylvania.still remains
the father of tty House, as he has been for
six Congresses, jit was in the Forty-fourth
Congress that n became the oldest member
in continuous swvice, and he will undoubt
edly remain th lean of the House until he
dies. Two yean after Judge Kelley entered
Congress thref other persons, and three
only, answer*! to the roll call whose
names will b found on the roll of the
Fiftieth < 'on/rese. Two came from Penn
sylvania—Sanuel J. Randall and Charles
O’Neill—andme from Ohio, S. 8. Cox.
William R. Morrison came at the same
time, as did .ohn A. Kasson and God love 8.
Orth, but th> latter has gone to his last ac
count. Mr. Morrison sits, some say regret
fully, upon he bench of the Interstate Com
merce Comnission, and Mr. Kasson is de
voting himalf to literature, and doubtless
has permanaitly retired from politics. In
the Fiftieth Congress it is believed that
there are butfour men—Judge Kelley, Mr.
Randall, Mr. O’Neill and Mr. Cox—who
are survivors if the war and reconstruction
Seriod. Mr. Cox would outrank Judge
ielley as the tatriarch of the House were
it not for the fact that he suffered defeats
which compelled brief periods of
retirement from Congress. He en
tered Congress four years before
Judge Kelley did, representing an Ohio dis
trict from 1857 to 1865, but he was defeated
for re-election it one time by a Democrat,
when he removed to New York. In 1869 he
again appearec in Congress in the New
York delegation and, with the exception of
a few months, luring which he was Minis
ter to Turkey, re has been here ever since.
Mr. Reagan, Wio has just been transferred
from the Houe to the Senate, entered Con
gress with Mi Cox, and from 1857 to 1861
was one o the two Representatives
from Texas! At that time he withdrew to
enter the Confederate service. Mr. Holman
ranks ainoig the older patriarchs of the
House fisc, having served from 1859 to
1865. and from 1867 until now, with the ex
ception of a Congress or two.
SSE WALKS IN HER SLEEP.
A Rimarkable Story of a Somnambu
list From Wilkesbarre.
From the New York Timer.
Vilkesbarre, Dec. 4. —Mrs. Rebecca
Edridge, living on Main street, has had
s<jne remarkable adventures during the
pist week in somnambulism. Mrs. Eld
•idge’s family consists of a son, George,
about 19 years old, and a daughter, Mamie
aged about 19. There is also in the house
H. A. Stewart, a clerk, who works at
nights, and has been a prominent actor on
each occasion on which Mrs. Eldridge
has been attacked with a somnambulistic
fit.
On Tuesday morning last as Mr. Stewart
entered the house, he saw Mrs. Eldridge
coming down the stairs. She wore her
night dress only and walked firmly, and as
though bent on some fixed errand. Her
eyes were wide open, but she did not seem
to see Mr. Stewart. Mrs. Eldridge ad
vanced st raight to the hat rack and, taking
her hat, put ft on and went to the front
door to go out. Mi*. Stewart then spoke to
her and asked her where she was going.
She said in a childish tone of voioe- ‘T am
f oing to church. I must go to. church and
’m afraid I’ll be late.” The other members
of the household were aroused and Mrs.
Eldridge was placed in bed. On the follow
ing day she was told of her nocturnal wan
derings, but remembered nothing of the
occurrence.
On Wednesday morning she had a far
more serious and startling experience It
was about Ba. m. when Mi*. Stewarc re
turned home, and the weather was intensely
cold. He found that the trap-door, opening
from the attic on the roof, was wide open,
and he saw Mrs. Eldridge standing on the
roof of W. L. Loomis’ house next door.
She had gained the roof of her own house
and then must have stepped or jumped in
the ilarkness across the intervening space,
fully three feet wide. She had two bundles
under her arm. One contained plush
dress goods and the other muslins.
She was rescued after great diffi
culty. Yesterday morning, when Mr.
Stewart got home, he found the front door
open. He ran up stairs and aroused Miss
Eldridge, who found that her mother was
not in bed. Her son George was called, and
after notifying the police to be on the look
out for her, Air. Stewart and George Eld
ridge started out to find her. They searched
all over the neighborhood, and it was nearly
daybreak before they found her in the Hol
lenbeck cemetery. She had no clothes on
but her night dress and hat, and was almost
frozen to death. She was still asleep and
talking to herself.
TRAINING FOR A CAREER.
A Small Boy Who Will Some Day be
a Great Metropolitan Editor.
From the Chicago Tribune.
A philanthropic old gentleman was pass
ing along the street, and when in front of a
fine residence his attention was attracted by
the remarks of a small boy, about 7 years
old, who was playing with another boy on
the sidewalk.
“That’s a low, mean, sneaking, cowardly,
dirty lie,” the small boy was saying, “and
you’re a blankety, dashety, villainous liar!
You’re a cheat, a pickpocket, a tramp, a de
faulter, an assassin, a vile, contemptible,
base, depraved dashed, blanked, crawling,
poisonous reptile 1”
The kind old gentleman turned about
dumbfounded, dropped his umbrella and
stared at the youngster in mute astonish
ment. Just then a lady came to the door
aud he said:
“Madam, is this your boy?”
“Yes, sir."
> “Well, I consider it my duty to inform
you that he was just now using the most
shocking and horrible language I ever heard
in my life. Why, he talked worse than an
Anarchist 1”
•‘ls that so ” replied the lady sweetly.
“I’m glad it shocked you—it showed that
Willie is improving.”
“Madam!’'thundered the old gentleman
as lie glared over his spectacles, “can it be
possible that you are aware that your son
indulges in such language?”
"O, certainly—we’ve been training him
some time.”
“Are you a heathen?” gasped the old gen
tleman as his jaw dropped.
“O, no,” replied the lady, as she beamed
complacently on the astonished party. “No,
we’re no heathens—we’re just bringing our
son up to lie a New York editor. Rio out
another editorial for the gentleman, Willie!”
"Blood Will Tell.”
Yes, the old adage is right, but if the
liver is disordered and the blood becomes
thereby corrupted, the bad “blood will tell”
in diseases of the skin and throat, in tumors
and ulcers, and in tubercles in the lungs
(first stages of consumption) even although
the subject lie descended in a straight line
from Richard Ueeur de Lion, or the noblest
Roman of them all. For setting the liver
in order no other medicine in the world
equals Dr. Pierce’s “Golden Medical Discov
ery.” Try it, and your "‘blood will tell” the
story of its wonderful efficacy.
THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, DECEMBER 0, 1887.
Sullivan Puts a Bold Beggar to Sleep.
Special In the Xew York Sun.
London, Nov. 38. John Lawrence
Sullivan, who has conquered this land as
even the best advertised Briton never con
quered America, is back once more in Ism
don. He arrived last night and began almost
at once by making himself useful to society.
Certain little streets off the leading thorough
fares are infested by men who bog. relying
upon their size and general fierceness rather
than upon any melting tale of misery to
draw contributions. These men make un
comfortable the lives of timid Londoners
who have to be out late. About 1 o’clock
this morning Sullivan, with his lacker,
Harry Phillips, was going home from the
Pelican Club to his lodgings in Hailey street.
Two men, very big but evidently with little
judgment, requested in surly tones the loan
of a pound. Sullivan recognized the wild
SDecies of footpad and walked on. One of
the fellows then began putiing at his arm,
while the other opened up a wonderful
current of East End profanity. Sullivan
retorted in a style that left the East End out
of sight, and threw the end of ids lighted
cigar in the face of the larger of the men.
Phillips meanwhile, who was, as may lie
imagined, little disturbed, advised the
threatening, beggars kindly, saying:
“Take my advice and get out. That man'll
kill you.”
The advice was wasted, and the larger
man, who, seeing Sullivan’s white shirt
front, never dreamed a fighter was near,
offered in choice cockney to fight the cham
pion of the world for a sanguinary tanner,
which means twelve cents.
In about a second he found out what
Paddy Ryan and other great men have
learned about Sullivan’s right, and in the
language of the ring he was asleep in a
gutter. The other spurious beggar waited
just long enough to hear a young prig from
the Pelican Club exclaim, “Well done, Sul
livan,” and then with an oath that expressed
astonishment he made a record as a runner.
The policeman who had charge of that part
of the town was affable. He recognized the
great man, advised Sullivan to give an
assumed name and address, as it might
make trouble if he should have killed the
cove, said he recognized the cove as a “bad
’un” and “desperate ’un” and lugged him off
to have cold water turned on him.
The story is being industriously told now
at the Pelican Club, and has raised the great
man from Boston even higher in the minds
of the youthful patrons of that temple of
sport. Most of them are better able to look
at a fight than to take part in it, and many
probably have been worried by gentlemen
similar to the one whom Sullivan with one
blow has probably driven from the neighbor
hood of the club.
