It is rum red th it there will be an im

insist that the wishes of the men who fur
nish the money to keep the cause alive
must be listened to in the question of select
ing a leader.

EMMA AFBOTT GOiSIP.
William Castle, the Tenor, Talks of
the Little Singer.
Emma Abbott was in constant fear of
pneumonia, and upon her last professional
visit to Cmciunati it was noticed that the
windows and doors in her room at the hotel
were stuffed' and blanketed in order that
not a breath pf air might blow upon her.
She also wore a heavy collar as an extra
protection. And yet pneumonia claimed
her at last.
This is what William Castle said the other
day to a Philadelphia Press reporter, in a
reminiscent chat of the cou ageous little
singer, with whom he sang for many
seasons, soma cf them full of uncertainty
and struggle, and some teeming with pros
perity.
“Miss Abbott traveled with a moss of
materi <1 to keep off the wind,” ho con
tinued, “aodwseh traveling on the cars at
night her s ior retiring were at
tended with as much detail, if not ceremony,
us attended the goodnight of the old ki igs
of France. She ,ad several sets of curtains
that were specially made for her. Before
goiug into her berth she had these curtains
hui g and pinned on all sides so that she
practically was sleeping in a box into which
not a breath of a draught could penetrate.
Still, witii all this care, she was constantly
suffering with colds.
“I remember singing with her once at
Cedar Rapids in anew theater that did not
have the outer doors on it yet, though the
thermometer was ScP below zero. We had
immense wood fires burning behind tee
see es I don’t know how tbe audience was
warmed, perhaps with the faint breath of
our fires. Tbe stage itself was frightfu ly
cold. The opera was ’Romeo and Juliet,’
and I grew colder with every bar. After
the bale .ny scene we, of course, got a recall.
I could not stand the cold anv longer, but
on my way back to the stage f grabbed my
ulster and put it on over my ‘R iueo’ tights,
i thought, of course, that Miss Abbott
would be tremend uslvdispleased. But she
was not Do you know why ?”
“No.”
“Well, because the same idea struck her
too, and when she tripped out in the bal
cony in the silvery moonligh' again she
had on a sealskin dolman ad a fur-lined
opera hood. The rest of the company fo -
lowed car example fast enough, and all
sang tbe rest of the opera in our ( eaviest
winter clothing, and w hen Juiiet was iad
in thetomp she was wrapped in a buffalo
robe.”
“Do you remember the Abbott kiss?’
THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, JANUARY 9,1891.
“O. blew myeoul"—with a jolly lauji-.
"1 HU in at the beginning. The mut 1:1 -
partant thin,: about ih Abbott kus w*
that it was no kba at all. The story came
up in this way: We were rehearsing part o'
'raul and Vi gima’ in her prlo at the
hotel ii New Orleans We wished to gst
me new endi g far the dtuation in which
‘Paul’ and ‘Virgil la' separate as he ■ *ta out
for Paris and they swear eternal fide <ty to
each other. I suggested finally that a ter
we part that i turn and look at each other
a <l then run into each other’s arms. She
liked the idea. At the performance at
night she, at the proper point, rushed into
my arms like a shot from a catapult. I
wrapped her in my embrace and put my
face cl se to hers, and the curtain came
down quick.
“To ihe audience it looked like an infinite
kiss, and it mads an instantaneous hit. Wo
were obliged to repeat t e soe-’e five times,
and even than we were allowed to strp only
because we ere so exhausted teat we could
not sing it any more, The next day the
papers were full of the so-called k:as. and
the paragraphs traveled all over the eiuo
try. so that aud.ences used to wait in ex
pectancy for this scene.
IT WAX A BUSINESS KISS.
"And what did Miss Abbott think of it
all?”
“Ob, she used to laugh and } ke about it.
You see. it was very good for business, and
Miss Abbott w,i a very cute budnesa
woman. Her husband, Kugene Wetheri.j,
was a good business man, too. He had a
remarkably keen appreciation of advertis
ing. You see, for many years he was the
right hand man of a manufacturer of paten’
pla-ters and pills, and be knew jost wht t
advertising was.
“It is said that Miss Abbott has left a
large fortu e, aud no and übt it is true, for
the made a great deal of money lu her pr •
fission, and her investments were marvel
ously judicious. She was fond of real
estate tmestme ts, and she usually bought
some land in all the growing cities that we
visited.
“She conducted all her business matters
in a very m tnodical way—even the care of
her diamonds and current earnings. She
had several secret pockets in her dress, one
for every day in the week, and some over
for jewels. Hiio put the earnings of each
day and night in its own pocket and
securely buttoned and pinned them up, until
she could put them in bank. Sae carried
u-ually about #50,000 worth of diamonds
that she disposed of in the same way. 1 re
member a funny incident about those dia
monds.”
“Yes? What is it?”
“We were traveling in Texas several
years ago, and during an excitement about
train robbers. Several danng robberies
had taken place; therefore you can imagine
our feelings when a conductor of a train on
which we were traveling came into our car
and whispered to ui ihat there were fo r
men in the smoker whom'he believed to be
train robbers, and that we should look
after our valuables. We were in consterna
tion instantly, for we all bad a little some
thing. Mr. Wetherill, thß manager, de
posed of several thousand and liars in ca h
by depositing it in an old stove, for, fortu
uately, the tune was summer.
“After we had all settled down, and in
fear and trembling were awaiting our
fate, the train stopped, and in a moment
more the conductor came back again and
told us that he guessed be bad made a mis
take after all, for bis suspicious characters
had all got out at the station and gone
about their business. Then the train started
again. We all tried to look brave, and we
giggled while we sneaked around and got
our valuables out of their places of secre
tion.
DIAMONDS IN AN OIL CAN.
“After the rest of us had all been fixed
right I saw Miss Abbott coming from the
back part of the car hugging an old coal
oil can to her bosom. It oertainly looked
ridiculous, until she confidentially whispered
to some of us that in the midst of the scare
she had found the can half filled with oil
amidst me train bauds’ effects in the back
part of the oar. She had thrown out the
oil and poured the whole $50,000 worth of
diamonds into the can. She got them all
out safely, but she hod a great time clean
ing them up. We never forgot that scare,
though I have always suspected that that
funny conductor set up a job on us inno
cents abroad.”
“I don’t think Miss Abbott ever disap
pointed an audience. She came near it,
though, during the srnallp >x epidemic.”
“Afraid of the sc urge?” W
“Hear me, no. She was not afraid of
anything. Vaccination was the trouble.
All the company was vaccinated. We got
over our punctures on the arm quickly
enough. But Miss Abbott would not be
vaccinated on the arm. She was punctured
on the leg. Inflam.nation set in so badly
that for two weeks she could not walk more
than a few yards at a time. Still, every
evening she would bo brought over
from her hotel and would appear
before the audience and sing two or three
songs, while leaning on the back of a chair
for support She won the sympathies of her
audience, aud an understudy went on with
the opera. The songs she sang bad nothing
to do with the opera itself. She had a way
of adapiing anything to the pleasure of her
audience.
“S e was singing in ‘Fa st’ in an Indiana
town one night, and, observing that the
audience was wearyinr of the classical
music, she calmly went on in the garden
scene and satig ‘Nearer My God to Thee,’
and the audience went wild with joy. In
deed, she would not hesitate to adapt
Shakespeare if she could please an audience
thereby.
CHIMNEYS*.
The man that sells you,
lamp-chimneys may, or may
not, know the difference—
some are made of brittle
glass, and some are made of
tough glass. The tough
ones cost the maker two or
three times as much as the
brittle ones. That accounts
for the breaking of chim
neys.
The making of tough
glass chimneys is almost
confined to one firm, Mac
beth & Cos., Pittsburgh.
