- UNDER THE 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 3Krt?‘.s , »»' which the tenants are troglodytes. £X£ iKuls ftiSftn ?h« *ZtaS P S ■Kkre f a jftve ^^Nning ^■^WTnarkod from tho to ■Pordsthat Bk* she replied, in a ■Pn diu not har her somnolent manner. We bright o’ nights. Our days s and our nights is days—that’s 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 deed was b.illiantly noontide, illuminated. It was in¬ 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, nnd-4>vwiiiiw ffllose coat lut'd-earned money, 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. Hu* Stage Manager** Three Tube*. I New York Shu.} 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 l act^drop, borders, border lights, (tilings 11 nud drops. Through this pi, o I can t if i want a slow, medium or quick curtain at the end of an act, or wiaiuiBiicidcumy Qi-Wtn. It may seem strange to you, but the speed with which gnjig a curtain is lowered, has often a tdeiui V:!l “Oceess of an^a|ffoi‘ At rehearsals the is often tried several time*-before it is got exactly right. spiritcdudction, A slow i urCam will kill a scene of while a quick curtain opasffonal .Willii^stroy the effect of 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 . front of the house, and by it the man something ager can instantly toll mo if there is 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 speaking enough, too this loudly or uot loudly and also can only be judged from tho front. The third tube goes to the leader of the orchestra, and enables mo to speak if his to muAic him if he has missed a cue or is too loud, or to tell him if owing to a delay or accident I need a second piece of music in an ontr’aefft— -------“—— MeaHurlng n Uue«coum.

A horse in harm ss, however, allowing for width of sulky or wagon, cannot with safety bo driven in a lino less than six lett from tho rail. This would make the distance over tho ordin¬ ary or accepted a-miie design of track of one quurtcr-of turns of 1*.-j equal to 1 - feet 10.2 inches. Then, for a horse trotting over such a track in twominutos and thirty seconds, them should bo de¬ ducted from his time half a second. A double team would require this distance of feet to be increased fully one loot, if not more.
