SHADOWS
There is a place in this city where day
is night and night is day. The phe
nonunion is nu artificial prodnetios, ol
(Otirse, but none the less singular for
that. I di covered it by looking down
from tho Brooklyn bridge. Inderneatb
tliat i rial structure stands a hugh tene
nieut house, seven stories high, and

which the tenants are troglodytes.

We bright o’ nights. Our days

what 1 tells ’em—and what’s the use in
buckin’ dg in it. So 1 snoozes when it's
dark, and works when it’s light, like a
sensible woman. We don’t get no sun,
but wo do get the electric glim.”
bo I mudo a second visit, and at nicht. *
The bridge has two rows of
strong electric lamps, and one of
them is directly over the court of
this tenement house. Every corner

so far os tho perpendicu¬
lar rays of light could make it so, but
out of this sun all mellowness and
warmth had departed, and the cold glit¬
ter was arctii in effe t. But there was
the bustle of work and play, as though
the scene were sunny Italian, and it was
clear that the woman wilh whom I had
spoken hours was uot alone in rearranging the
of sleeping and waking to suit
conditions. It was tho custom of
tho place. The dimness of the day
-was conducive to slumber. Candle,

and so whose employment did hot i
take them away fed naturally into the i
habit of staying abod tho whole after¬
noon. The brightness of the night
shone into tho rooms, was as free as air,
invited these poor people to make use of
it; so they stay up os a rule until tho
early hours of the morning. The excep¬
tions to this rule are tho men who have
to go to work at a normal time. The
children, more’s the pity, are subjected
to whatever evil (elects this queer
re tarsal of things may produce.

Now, to go hack to the prompt place.
Here are three speaking tubes. One
goes to overhead, tho tiy-men and who work in tho
|fc ^jfaision gallery who are a sub
of the carpenters’ department.
Their work is to raise and lower the cur

I can t if i want a slow, medium or
quick curtain at the end of an act, or

strange to you, but the speed with which gnjig
a curtain is lowered, has often a

strong word.vtfml struggle, in whieli
feelings take the place of
action; and many a good comic s tua
tion has Lion ruined by a too slow cur¬
tain. There are certain effects which
the moment they have beou produced
must be shut out Iroin the eyes of the
audience, as they become wearisome.
My second speaking-tube goes to the

wrong with the scenery, or
the acting, or the lights, which 1 am
unable to sco looking Sometimes at tho stage only
from tho side. actors are

from tho front. The third tube goes to
the leader of the orchestra, and enables
