It is related that he took his children to see one of the first performances of “The School : ’ for Scandal,” and when they screamed with delight their Irritable father pinched them, saying: “What are you laughing at? You should not laugh, my at,” angels; adding, there is nothing to laugh j in an undertone, “keep still, you little dunces.” When this was reported to Sheridan he said: “It I 1 Ssr£ ZX tag at my comedy, for when I went to .see his tragedy I laughed from begin- nmg to end! —The Argonaut. | (From the Brockton Times, Oct. 30, 3895)) Brookton’d prosperity ig go olceel j allied to tho prosperity of Iho slioo ind dustry that it will, no doubt, prov? »t matter of interest to «. large number of people to learn the actual average earning capacity of ta h indh’idual employed in tli© ranking of the world-famed Brockton shoe.
