SOME PERILS OF THE STAGE
Narrow Etcapca of the Hero and Heroine
from Slaying Machines.
DEVICES FREQUENTLY SLIP A COG
A Stcamalilp Collision the Lulent
Stnue Contrivance The Milp
rrrerUs, Fire Engines ami llinr-
nvis of the Pnst.
There was a stage manager not so long
ago who said that ho would give well,
no matter Just hat he would give. Those
little details are always hard to remembor,
and It Is of no consequence any way, be
cause he probably would not havo given It
If bo had been brought to tho test. But
he snla that he would glvo a considerable
sum to any one who would suggest to him
a new sensational and realistic mechani
cal act tor the climax of a melodrama. It
was his Judgment, based ou experience,
that what tho public wanted In the way
of dramatic art was to ace some sort ol
horrid machine come pretty near killing
the hero or quite kill tho villain, or both,
and that this machine must be a real one,
set right up on the stage.
Naturally It grows constantly harder to
supply thlt want, as the stock of novel
notions gets low. till some device which
has been used before becomes forgotten
and can be used again. Naturally, also,
tne devices tend to grow more and more
elaborate. The recent news that thu cur
rent Drury Lane melodrama has a ecca
In which the ocean steamer runs down a
yacht shows to what lengths tho stage
manager now feels himself driven.
These real'stic effects ate sometimes
said to have had their origin In the rail
way train In "Under the Gaslight," but
this opinion testifies only to the short and
self-sufficient memory of those who hold
It. Surely the oft recalled real pump and
tho real tubs of Vincent Crummies were
forerunners of all these things, and they
themselves wcro but the caricature of
something which already existed. But cer
tainly there has been, first and last, a
good deal of study and toll lavished on
these attempts to pUco Inanimate thlugs
oa the sfcige as they are.
Mow the Tank Drniim Prospered.
Seldom has a complete failure achieved
such success as tho tank drama. A few
years ago tanks were all the fashion.
They represented lakes and rivers, on tho
surface whereof real boats could float
and Into the depths whereof men could
dive. They never looked In the least llkt
real river lakes. A scene painter who
could not make something to look moro
natural would not be allowed to work for
the grand opera house of any one night
stand In the country. Still, there was the
water and It was wet and the boats that
were put Into It floated, and, actors being
selected who didn't mind, the hero Jumped
right into It and brought the herolno out
dripping. So those who would not turn
their heads to look at a whole East river
full of shipping were made happy.
Jumping Into tho water to save the hero
ine suggests that she might bo saved In
other difficult ways. Probably no more
Improbable way was ever devised than
tho one In a melodrama of a few seasons
ago called "The Spaa of Life." Here
three acrobats performed something like
what Is technically known as a "brother
act." In tho brother net thrco or four men
stand on one another's shoulders, the
heaviest and strongest at the bottom and .
the smallest and lightest at tho top. Then
the tower of men begins to fall, still
holding Itself perfectly straight, and when
It looks as If all but the bottom man were
to be dashed to pieces on the feather bed
they break atari, each turns a somersault
and all land on their feet. In, "Tho Span
of Life" the three men locked their heels
and their heads together with their arms
and formed a bridge over a chasm, over
which tho heroine walked with her child,
while "the vlllala still pursued her" on
tha other side. This effect could hardly
bo said to be produced by inanimate ob
jects, but it really belongs to the same
class.

Houses on fire were a commonplace long
oeiore tno real steam fire engine of "The
Still Alarm" began putting them out and
gratifying the public longing for machln
ery on the stage. As soon as the ma
chine Ib disclosed at the rising of the cur
tain and the actors begin to talk about It
the audience knows what Is coming.
"So this is the mill in a,lch old Hund
muller grinds his celebrated sausages."
"Yes. You see how It works. The car
casses are thrown whole Into this great
hopper. That horizontal wheel, all set
with automatic hatchets, makes a million
revolutions! a minute and In ten mi.iutes
everything that goes Into the hoppw Is
reduced to powder. It is to the fact that
tho machine thus reduces muscle, bone,
hide and balr alike that the sausages owe

There was tho circular saw la "Blue

be reduced to stovelengtbs by that and
It was the heroine who saved him. an ar
