■ I 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. Although the uppef part of his body was hidden from public view by liis A LITTLE NONSENSE. Woman’s Wit and Feminine Fancy Bunched. “She’s the most conceited widow I ever saw. She declares she’ll nev er marry again unttl she - has re ceived the one hundredth offer.” “She probably intends to he a century plant.” She—You’re a flatterer. I only believe half you tell me.
