Tho village Is woll situated on tho

There Is little of Interest In tho placo

"People who apply for positions in
iramaUc companies sometimes have
lueer Ideas as to the consistency of
things," said a theatrical agent the
ather day, according to tho Philadelphia
Telegraph. "Several years ago I was
nanaglng a company doing standard
ind Shakospoaroan plays In cities ot tho
middle west. Ono day a young man
jcardlesa. dignified, with all the marks
)f rural training came up to me In the
:orrldor of a hotel In a little Indiana
town. Ho wanted to net, and wanted
It badly.
"'What have you played?' I asked
him.
" '1 made a big hit,' he replied, 'when
tho Crescentvlllo literary lyceum
playod "llomco and Juliet" last month.'
" 'What did you play Romeo?'
"'Oh, no, sir. I played tho apoth
ecary.' " 'Make a hit in the apothecary?' I
bad a right to be astonished. You
know, tho part is a v'ery small one
merely a tottering, starved old man,
whose poverty causes him to break the
taw by selling poison to Romeo.
" 'I made a very big bit,' reiterated
the dramatic aspirant, confidently. 'In
deed, so great was my success that I
ltd an encore.'
" 'How?' I was now too much as
tonished for words.
" 'Well, you see, It was this way,'
tho youth explained. 'My conception
3f the role was original all my friends
say I'm vory original In everything I
do. You know tho placo where the
apothecary gives Rcmeo tho poison
and Romeo hands tho old beggar n
purso. Well, It's been so long since the
apothecary knew what money was that
the Instant ho felt the purse In his hand
I made him fall In a fit. I rolled around
for awhile and frothed at tho mouth;
then two man came on tho stago nnd
cnrrlod mo away.'
" 'Hut how did you do the encore?'
"The boy looked at mo contempt
uously for a moment before ho replied:
'Oh, I say, you don't know what an en
coro Is. The audience liked my acting
so much whon I had that fit that thoy
clapped and clapped and wouldn't let
Romeo finish tho sccno. So I enmo out
and bowed, and they handed up a bunch
of American Beauties that mother sent
me. Then I gave them the encore I
prctendod to fall In another fit.' "
