CONDENSED STORIES.
Between Kathcrina and the Deep 8ea,
He Choste the Latter.
E. H. Sothern has a new story
concerning the autograph hunters,
from the importunities of whom ac
tors suffer even more than distin
guished people in other walks of
life. They become accustomed to
being- buttonholed in street cars, on
the sidewalk, ill hotel lobbies and
even at the very door of the theater,
but Mr. Sothern is the first one,
perhaps, who has ever been chased
into the ocean. While he was en
joying a morning swim in the surf
at Newport recently he heard some
one splashing and puffing behind
him and at the same time calling to
him not to go so fast. Thinking
the man had some good reason for
wanting to stop him, he turned and
said, “What is it 1”
“Hold on a minute, there,” said
tho stranger. “Aren’t you Mr. K.
II. Sothern?”
“Yes,” replied the actor.
“Well, I want you (puff) to give
mo (puff) your autograph (puff).
Will you?”
Thinking he had to deal with a
harmless lunatic, Mr. Sothern as
sured him that nothing would, give
him greater pleasure. Would he
have it in sand, seaweed or salt wa
ter?”
“Never mind your joking,” said
the stranger. “My Katherina is on
the, beach, and she’s got the album
and a stylographic pen.”
“And did you submit to the impo
sition ?” Mr. Sothern was asked.
“Well,” replied that gentleman,
“you see, I was, between Katherina
and the deep sea, so I took a look at
Katherina and”—
• “Well ?” T
“I chose the deep sea.”
Left His Legs Behind.
“Is Mr. Depew in ?” said a life in
surance agent, handing his card to
the office attendant.
“I’ll see, sir,” replied- the, minion,
going into the senator’s sanctum.
Mr. Depew glanced at the card
and shook his head in the negative.
