At two oclock the members as
sembled at their castle hall and from
hence marched to the Methodist
church where they listened with ap
preciative attention to an excellent
sermon by Sir Knight Rev Bryant
Howe whose thought was along the
line of encouragement as an expres
sion of the passion of love Solos
by Lewis Ludwick and Joseph Moore
and selections by the church choir
were other features of the service
After the church services the

deceased members of the order with
floral emblems with appropriate rit

heart Povertv was her handmaid and
if she now and then enjoyed the cheap
delights of life even they were bought
and paid for by distressing toil Her
mother being employed in a subordi
nate position in John Ellslers Acade
my of Music in Cleveland Clara also
sought and found employment there
beginning her career as a ballet girl
She was at this time less than four
teen years of age
It did not rake long however for the
old manager to discover that the little
girl possessed precocious ralent and
occasionally be gave her small speak
inc parts They were so well perform
ed that rhey grew iu importance and
promotion followed
Conscious that a larger Geld was
open before her and inspired by a
laudable ambition ro explore its possi
bilities she now determined to go to
New York but there encountered ob
stacles disappointments and setbacks
All rhis was disheartening and well
calculated to appall an ordinary na
ture but hers was of that india rubber
quality which most repressed grows
firmer with the opposing weight At
last Augustin Daly who was then man
aging the Fifth Avenue theater and
gathering around him a galaxy of tal
ont consented to irive her a small posi
tion in his company The first half of
the season was nearly closed when she
was cast for a minor part iu Man and
Wife but one night the leading ac
tress was suddenly taken ill and Clara
Morris was called upon to play the role
of Anne Sylvester Her confreres in
the company smiled contemptuously
at the idea that this plain western girl
could do more than walk through tin
part and as it were temporarily lili
the gap and even Daly himself was
nervous at the prospect of an experi
ment that might result in disaster
Predictions of the failure were heard
ou all sides but to Clara Morris it was
a golden opportunity blie knew it i
instinctively and marshaled all Jig
forces within her for the ordeal She i
rehearsed carefully analyzed the char
acter until every phase of it seemed
like an open book and then prepared to
throw into it all the intensity of her
emotional nature
As she swept with her peculiar grac
from point to point through the seen
not an eye in the great audience but
followed every motion not a face but
was tuned to catch every accent that
fell from her lips When the curtain
rang down that night Clara Morris
had won her victory and Augustin
Daly had discovered a phenomenon
The hitherto repressed and neglected
genius went home crowned with
rels and from that hour wore them an-
