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. A New Delegate. iVom the New York Sun. Washington is awaiting with some inter est the arrival of the delegate from No Man’s Land. A great many people will be suprised to learn that there is such a pro vide under the shadow of the American flag It will only be found under that oame on the older maps. It is the disputed strip of country north of the pan handle of Texas whose inhabitants recently held a convention and elected officers. A Terri torial delegate is on his way here to ask for a seat in Congress, and admission for their SintotKe United!States as the Terri tory of Cimarron. The name is derived from tha largest river which flows through he preyed Territory. Thisland appears on the maps at the Interior Departmen ■ as 4 nnillic lauds.” It is a parallelogram thirty miw wide larger than the State of Dela wareZl large as New Jersey ItKnded on the north by Colorado and Wwk on the east by Indian Territory, ~,TL south by Texas, and on the west b" MeJr Mexico.

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.
