An Amateur Performer Who luaiatcd
Upon Following tl Line.
It is not often that professional actors
get mixed up m amateur theatricals
but when they do, as a rule, their lives
are made miserable until the affair ia
over. A few yr ars ago a young wom
an, who was oue of the reigning belles
of the Four Hundred in this city, wrote
a romantic nlav. plentifully snrinklfid

one and all unanimously declared that
it should be produced at one of the the
aters where amateur ierformances are
held, and that the author should play
the part of the heroine. After much
coaxing the lady consented. The play

mo icauing man being tne nead ana
front of them. The scene of the play
was laid m Turkey, in the garden and
palace. of "the sultan. The plot was
hinged on the abduction of two beauti
ful girls and their final rescue.
A ciever professional stae manager
was engaged at a big salary and re
hearsals began. Everything went along
as smoothly as could be expected until
the last rehearsal, which took place on
the moruingof the day appointed for the
production, when a note was hastily de
livered to the stage manager saying that
the leading lady ainl anthorhad lost her
voice completely, and that her physician
had ordered her not to leave the house.
She was very sorry, but advised that a
professional actress bo engaged to take
her place. Here was "a pretty kettle of
fish" how to get an actress at so short
a notice. The costumes must be fitted
and the part learned before 7 p. m. The
manager thought of a friend of his, Mrs.
Addie Plunkett, Charles Plunkett's wife,
who had just closed her season with
I .vrence Barrett and who was then at
Loerty. He sent for her and requested
her to return with the messenger. She
did so, and after a long talk with the
stage manager consented to rehearse the
part. She was nervous, of course.
In the garden scene her sister's lover
has discovered her hiding place and
they are having a loving interview, the
heroine remaining on the lookout for
interruptions, which may occur in the
form of the sultan's servants, which
would mejin death to the intruder. At
a certain cue the heroine rushes up to
her sister's fiance and tells him to "Fly!
fly for your life some one approaches!"
and the lover is pushed through a wick
et and esea)es. Mrs. Plunkett rehearsed
the scene carefully and told the leading
man that in case she should forget to
say all the lines she would make him
understand when it was time for him to
make Isis exit. Thus it was settled be
tween them. Evening came, and the
time for the curtain to be rung up ar
rived. Most of the performers had staije
fright, one fair amateur declaring that
she had entirely forgotten her lines and
was sure that she would faint from
sheer fright.
The performance began and Mrs.
Plunkett struggled bravely through her
part, dropping an occasional speech now
and then, but with professional tact she
covered up her mistakes so that the au-

W hen the
garden scene was reached the lover ap
peared in good time and she stood guard
until the proper cue was given. It came
all right, but alas for Mrs. Plunkett, she
had forgottep her lines. When she heard
the sultan's guard approach she rushed
to the lover and said, "Away! begone!"
but she received no response from that
gentleman. She pushed him and tried
to get him to go through the wicket, as
agreed upon, but he refused to budge an
inch, and said to her in a stage whisper,
"Say 'Fly! fly."" but Mrs. Plunkett was
l beyond speech by this time, so she con
tinued to push him toward the wicket.
Her efforts were useless, however, foi
he resisted and declared he would not
go until she said, " 'Fly! fly! for your
life, some one approaches,' so the audi
ence can hear you." Still she could not
speak, but with one herculean effort
she gave him a tremendous push that
sent him flying through the wicket and
into some stage bushes which had been
artistically arranged at the back of the
stage. When the performance was over
Mrs. Plunkett heaved a sigh of relief
and said, "This is the first and last ama
teur performance for me!" New York

Tlie C.rowtH of Two Cities.
Just as the Atlantic cities were sur

will they be astonished again and from

the forces that are operating to build up
new capitals in the west. In another
ten 3'ears there will be another claim of

j of heads will not make nonsense of it.

" Which Mu-k:t) Took I 50,000,000.
w it- . I
f! i i watt hiioiiin Willi -ti.u suy Hoiue
t f years ago in Virginia City, when w
looked down a hinoknig cavity in th
groinul that was soon lst in tho dark
nes4, and at the mouth of which a wind
lass was slowlv grinding. "Out of that
hole," ho said, "1 took $150,000,000 in
bullion." This was one of the famous
Bommza mines, whose history all men
know. The Uig Bonanza, as it was
i i . .. ....
caneu, ann as AiacKay described it to me
at the time, was a "kidney" or
"pocket" of cmdo oro, about as high as
the steeple of Trinity and in area as
large as the City Hall park of New York
This ore, shoveled out and reduced
gave the stuTendous yield to which Mr
Mack ay referred, and was the founda
tion of the Bonanza fortunes.
Associated with him were throe other
gentlemen, whoso names were to win n
worldwide mining fame James O. Fair,
afterward senator from Nevada, whoso
skill as a mining exiert had attracted
the attention of Maekay; William
O'Brien, and James C. Flood. O'Brien
and Flood had come to California as
friends in the Argonaut days, and had
like other men taken their humble parts
in the creation of the Pacific states. In
those times men who were to be major
generals in the army drove drays for a
living. Others who were to become
luminous in statesmanship and juris
prudence joyfully mended their own
trousers and washed their own linen.
They were "partners," a term that
Bret llarle has pathetically explained
in one of his exquisite stories. "Part
ners," that is to say, friends, with
friendship such as we who live outside
of the atmosphere of adventure which
infolded the Argonaut days cannot un
derstand, and which would be but
vaguely explained if we compared it to
the love of man and woman.
"Billy was my partner once," as Mr.
Flood said to me one day in Menlo,
while we were looking at the portrait of
O'Brien; "Billy was my partner once.
He is my partner now, will be my part
ner forever" a speech which made a
deep impression, coming as it did from
the lips of oue of the most resolute, self
restrained and undemonstrative of men.
Flood was the financial representative
and the ally of the two young miners
who were at work on the Bonanza;
O'Brien, the "partner" in the firm, be
cause Flood could have no interest he
did not share.
O'Brien passed away in Bonanza
times Flood not many months since, in
Germany. He. was a brave, independ
ent, reserved, conscientious man, es
pecially charming and true in the higher
relations of life no better citizen, no
truer friend "in all that gws toward
the true development of manhood, the
best man I have ever known," as Maekay
said to ine when the hour of irre vocal le
silence had fallen. "I know only one
man in the world that can break me,
and that is Maekay." This Flood said
to me and I note it as showing the strong
links which in those days bound the
Bonanza firm and gave it a strength
and a confidence which were the basis
of its power. John Iiussell Young in
Munsey's Magazine.
Reauty as a National Trait.
Is there any handsome ieople on the
face of the globe? Now, we may set
aside the black and yellow and jwly
chrome races in general, many of whom
are well shaped and like bronze statues
to look upon, but who do not come up
to the Aryan standard in features and
color. Leaving these children of nature
out of the question, it may be confessed
that there is no race among whom beau
ty is common. If the ancient Cireeks
were like their statues, then there once
was a lieautiful race, but it is not so
certain that they did not idealize them
selves a good deal. There is the more
reason to guess this, as when they have
to represent a barbarian, say a Gaul oi
a German or a professional prize fighter,
they make these people as handsome as
themselves, though in a rougher way.
There is a famous bronze statue of a
boxer, who might be taken for an orator
or a ioet were it not for his heavy metal
studded gloves. Thus it may be deemed
that there is a great proportion of the
ideal in these statues, vases, coins and fig
ures, where every one is so graceful and
goodly. Every nation has a high opin
ion of its own charms. The French
pride themselves on small feet, and it ie
certain that their women walk very lit
tle, and have cunning bootmakers..

Kept the Least for Himself.
Three ragged newsboys were trying
to sell the earlier editions of the after
noon papers. A man carding a large
basket of fine looking oranges on. his
shoulder passed close by. The motion
of his body loosened one of the bigge-st
and ripest and it fell to the ground. The
man kept on, not noticing or caring foi
the loss. The orange lay upon the- pave
lnent for about half a minute unseen.
Then the largest of the three ragged
urchins spied it, and with a cry of de
light he ran over and picked it up. It
was natural to suppose that lie would
proceed to eat it all himself, but instead
of doing so he called his companions and
exhibited his find. They eyed it greed
ily. Without any request from tliein for a
share in the coveted fruit tle finder di
vided the orange into three parts and
gave his fellow newslxys each a part.
The smallest part he reserved for him
self. It was only a small thing in itself,
yet it proved. I thought, that there was
something noble hidden under the ragged
garments of that little urchin. New
