An English officer who some, years ago was wounded In a battle in India ; and left lying nil nhilit among lb na tive dead and woud tells this story: ; "Next morning we spied a man and an old woman, who came to u with a basket and a wt of wtiter. aud to fvry woundtd man kIih gavt- a piece 'f jouree lircad frmii the luiKkot and a ilrlnk froiu Iut .water p;t To u she ziive the Kiime. u nd I thanked heaven and her.,; But the SiKiImhdar was a hi'li (iiNte Kajpui. n:.d. us tills wo ni an. w:ik a Cliuniiir, vr if the lowest i-nate. be would rei-elve t.eitber water imt lueiid from l:er.

When the curtain rang down that . night Clara Morris bad won her victory and Augustln Paly had discovered a phenomenon. ; The hitherto repressed and neglected genlns went borne crowned with lau rels and from that hour wore thcro no challenged during her stage career. ' OIiiXA BIOBBIB IU 188a where the walled up power within her would break through Its barriers and bring its great reward. The birthplace of Clara Morris was Toronto, but at an early age she was taken to Cleveland, and her earliest re membrances of home and childhood are remembrances of the drying up of every spring and fountain In her young heart. Poverty was ber handmaid, and If she now and then enjoyed the cheap delights of life even they were bought and paid for by distressing toll. Her mother being employed In a subordi nate position In John Ellsler's Acade my of Music In Cleveland, Clara also sought and found jaployment, there, beginning her career as a ballet girl. She was at this time less than four teen years 6f age. It did not take long, however, for the old manager to- discover that the little girl possessed precocious talent, and occasionally be gave ber small speak ing parts. They were so well perform ed that they grew In Importance and promotion followed. Consotfous that a larger field was open before her and Inspired by a laudable ambition to explore its possi bilities., she now determined to go to New York, but there encountered ob stacles, disappointments and setbacks. All this was disheartening and well calculated to appall an ordinary na ture, but hers was of that India rubber quality w hich, most repressed, grows firmer with tbe opposing Weight. At last Augustln Daly, who wax then man aging the Fifth Avenue theater and gathering around him a galaxy of tal ent, cousented to give her n small post tlon in his company. .The first half of tbe season was nearly closed when she was cast for A minor part In "Man and Wife." but one nigbt the lending ac tress was suddenly taken 111. and Clara Morris was called uon 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 the part and. as It, were, temporarily "fill the gap." and eVen Daly himself was nervous at the prospwt of an experi ment tbat might result In ' disaster. Predictions of the failure were heard on all sides, but to Clara Morris It was a golden opportunity. She knew it Instinctively and marshaled all the forces within her for the ordeal. She rehearsed carefully, analyzed the char acter until every phase of It seemed like an open book and then prepared to (tbrow Into It all the Intensity of her emotional nature. ; , JEWELERS AND OPTICIANS.
