Angry at the Orchestra Lender.
The hardest test of a blithesome smile's
endurance on the face of an actress is not
when she has nenr&lgia in the teeth that
must be shown in farce, nor when the
gleaming crockery grin which she uses in
the ballet is composed of Ctlse teeth that
hare become half displaced by the jolting
of the dance, and are likely to drop out;
nor yet when the mimic lover, for whom
■he lovingly parts her lips, is in reality
her sworn enemy, suspected by her of
plotting that disaster for her.
"1 wasn't over so scared in my life,"
said a professional smilor in a burlesque,
aas I am to-night. My best mash is a nice
tittle fellow—jnst as polite as they make
'em; and he usually sits in the dude row,
where he looks up into my face over the
orchestra leader's head. But to-night he
was in a box, where he got ento the con-
| ductor's profile for the first time. The
melons fellow didn't know the ways of
leader*—how they make snoots and talk
awfully at us whenever we get out of time
or key, and our specimen is as cross as a
pins-mark,polls mugs like a low comedian,
! and breaks the anti-swear commandment
into little bits to scatter through his sen-
tences. My song is sweetly sentimental,
yon remember, and I warble it with a
gentle smile on. Of course, I'm used to
1 the leader's grimaces, and when he hums
me back into tune—sometimaj muttering
awful sheol words to the air that I ain
| selestlalising—I take it kindly. But my
best mash wouldn't have it that way;
rowed nobody should abuse or berate the
I jirl he loves, and seems determined to
knock out our leader to-morrow morning.
II hope'twas the wine that was talking,

i Fork Letter.
Paid a Royalty on His Own Song.
Here is a little story which will show
yon how American authors are at the
merey English publishers and vice
versa. I went to England scone time ago
*nd was singing one of my own songs at a
theatre there, when I was enjoined by a
London music publisher. He had copy-
righted and published my song, and de-
manded a heavy royalty from me for the
A heavyset colored man, wearing
broad-brimmed hat A pail of water in
eaeh hand. Ha disappears through a oel-
lardoor. He walks through a long p
ago waif, lined with stalls in which hoi
and mill— are munching their corn and
hay. He passes through a big gate into a
cellar, as dark as midnight, and into
which a flaring gas jet forces a light but a
lew feet He is in the middle of the block,
!n the vary center of cellardom, and at
least a hundred yards from the busy pat-
ter of feet on the sidewalk!
Frosn the depths of the darkness a pair
of green, fiery eyes are looking. Fearless,
devilish, cruel eyes, moving restlessly
from side to side and up and down. They
are the blood-freesing eyes of a hyena! In
the edge of the light was a Rocky moun-
tain silver-tipped bear. Dimly outlined
far hack in the dark cellar was an ele-
phant, and slowly nibbling at hay were
two dromedaries. Here and there w
cages of monkeys, and in one cage was an
ant-eater. All this made np Atlanta's
menagerie, for Atlanta has a menagerie.
"What else have you got to do, Will-
tamr asked a reporter of William Badger,
the keeper of these animals.
"I've got to water my monkey and
feed my hy-a-ny," answered William, as
he sat the water close to the elephant's
snout. "And when I get through feeding
will go to bed with Babe. Babe is the
elephant, you understand."
'You mean you sleep in here with these
animals?"
"Indeed I do, sir! I sleep right alongside
that elephant there, back to back, sir.
And sir, she snores, too, let me tell yon!
And she makes me go to bed first, sir, and
get a warm place for her," said ths man
with a chuckle. "I have to turn in early,
for my old lady won't stand any nonsense.
I make my pallet over there in the straw,
and when she gets through supper she
comes over, feels for me with her snout
and lies down by me and we sleep to-
gether. She snores like a fat man, but
except that she is a good old bed-fellow."
"What does yonr bedfellow eat?"
"Well, Babe ain't a very big eater. She
takes in two bales of hay sad two bushels
of oats, and drinks seventy-five pails of
water every day. She is a young thing
yet. She ain't but 108 years old, and don't
weigh but three tons."
"Yes, yes," he soliloquised. "I have to
be careful with Babe, she drinks three
barrels of water a day, and if I give her
too much she will get chilled. A barrel
of water will chill most anything this sort
of weather, and if Babe were to get
chilled m have to fill her up with hot
water to thaw her out."
The man threw a piece of raw beef to
the hyena and that worthy at once went
to work on it. He let it lie on the floor of
his cage and holding it with his paws
~ in a ghastly way as he stripped
bones of the flesh.
"What do you feed the ant-eater on?"
"The ant-eater eats fresh beef, and the
bear eats cooked meats, bread, cold pota-
toes Mid the like."
"What do the monkeys eat?"
"I feed the monkeys pretty much like I
would a child. They eat all kinds of fruits,
bread, cooked meats and the like and
Irink coffee and tea. They take sugar in
their coffee but no cream. They take the
saucers in their hands like people do and
drink it that way."
"Do you give them any raw meats?"
"No; if they were once to get the taste
of blood they would eat each other's tails
off."
"The hyena," said the keeper, "laps
water like a dog, and the hear swills it
a hog, and the monkey drinks it like a

came to a mournful death principally from
taking chloral, which unsettled her mind and
demoralized hor whole physical system. She
had been weakly and ailing and felt her need
ot something to drown her sorrows and brace
her up. Had she taken Brown's Iron Bitters
sho would have been invigorated so that she
could have fought her sorrows off, and enjoy-
