On a bracket In Edwin Booth's bed room at The Players the apartment remains as he left It that solemn April day ten years ago stands a sadly di lapidated skull which the elder Booth, and afterward hie son Kdwtn, weed to soliloquise over In the graveyard at Elstnore la the fifth act of "Ham let." In the early forties, while playing sn engagement somewhere lu the wild West, Junius Brutus Booth did a se ries of kindnesses to a particularly un deserving fellow, the name of him un known to us. The man, as It seemed, was a combination of gambler, horse stealer and highwayman In brief, a miscellaneous desperado, and precisely the melodramatic sort of person likely to touch the sympathies of ths half mad player. In the course of nature or the law, presumably the law, the adventurer boldly disappeared one day, and in tluic ceased to exist even as a remluiscence in the florid mind of his sometime benefactor. As the elder Booth was seated at brtakfast one morning In a hotel lu Louisville, Kentucky, a negro boy en tered the room bearing a small osier basket neatly covered with a snow napkin. It had the general aspect o a basket or rruit or flowers sent oy some admirer, and as such It figured for a moment lu Mr. Booth's conjec ture. On lifting the cloth the actor started from the chair with a genuine expression on his features of that ter ror which he was used so marvellous-' ly to simulate In "Richard III." in the: midnight tent-seene, or as Macbeth ( when the ghost of Banquo usurped bis seat at table. In the pretty willow-woven basket lay the head of Booth's old pensioner, which head the old pensioner had be queathed in due legal form to the tra gedlan, legging him henceforth to adopt it as one of the necessary staga properties In the fifth act of Mr. Shakespeare's tragedy of "Hamlet.'' "Take It away, you biack Imp!" thun dered the actor to the equally aghast negro boy, whose curiosity had hap pily not prompted him to investigate the chirk nature of his burden. Shortly afterward, however, the horse-stealer's residuary legatee, re covering from the first shock of his surprise, fell Into the grim humor of the situation and proceeded to carry out to the letter the testator's whim sical reque.-t. Thus it was that the skull came to secure an engagement to play the role of poor Yorick In J. B. Booth's company of strolling players, and to continue awhile longer to glim mer behind the footlights in the hands of bis famous son. Century. AN EXTRAORDINARY FEAT. Caetaway Sailor Orerpowera Hia Com panion In Order to Sav Him. An extraordinary feat of courage and coolness was performed by John Clements, who was cast away In a dory only last summer off the Labra dor Banks. On July 21, when the schooner Protector was just beyond the straits of Belle Isle, Clements and George Johnsti n, another of the crew, were out in s dory together. The fog shut down suddenly and shut them off from the:r ship. They rowed about for hours trying to find her, as there were no other craft in that region, and land was thirty miles away. When night came on they determined to make for the coast before the polar current swept them south. They were witbwut food and water and the ocean was filled with icebergs. The morning came at last with a bright sun and breeze, and they set a sail for a few hours. But a storm followed, and by nightfall the boat was half full of water and lying to a drag, the ra n pouring down and both men balling their hardest. As the third nlgbt approached without sight of land Johnston last heart and aban doned the oars. Clements held on un til bis mate became delirious and threatened to jump overboard. Then Clements, being the stronger, overpowered Johnston and tied blm up In the bottom of the boat, an operation which, from their struggles, nearly swamped her. After daybreak Clem ents got out the oars again and at noon reached the shore, landing In a little cove. Here he found a brook that gave Johnston a refreshing draft, besides a meal of fresh roots and ber ries. This reslored the latter and Clements cut bim loot. Then they started to coast south, and In the after noon were picked up by a Newfound land schooner, Leslie's Monthly. OLD FOLKS OF MORMON CHURCH An IntereatlnaT Gathering of Adher ents of Brig-ham Tonus. A recent dispatch from Bait Lake City tells of a gathering of the old folks of the Mormon Church which you can never tell where it is going to had Just been held at American Fork, strike. Home remedies, plasters, lini Of the old people present forty-ono ments and such things as produce were above the age of 90; 153 were counter-irritation, are soothing and over 80 and under 90, and 617 of them may relieve the pain temporarily, but were more than 70 and under 80 year J the polluted, acid blood cannot be old.

S. S. It attacks the disease in loaves of bread aud the "trimmlnas" I the blood, neutralizes the acids, and appropriate to such a meal. Some of , these persons were members of ths Mormon organization when Joseph Smith was at Its bead, and all of them lived under and recognized the leader ship of Brlgham Young. The aggre gate age of the 813 men and women at this gathering was S3,ni year, and they have 48,780 descendants a show ing which ought to delight Mr. Roose velt. But th re Is nothing In the last figures to discourage the people of other Slates from essaying the biblical Injunctions to multiply and replenish the earth. True, these Utah people haveestablishrda prolific standard, and one that will be difficult to live up to; but It must be remembered that tho Mormons bad advantages which ar denied to people of other States by law. When a man moves to another town, and has it In for the town he left, you can depend upon It that he has never done anything to help the town along, and was an undesirable citizen.
