Weakness In : the box has practically kept the Pirates out of the race so far this season, but with a half season to go the Pirates may make a strong finish, and if the pitch ers regain their form Chicago and New York will have to keep hustling to bar the Pirates out of first place. New York's weakness so far has been against second division teams, Boston and Brooklyn throwing several Jolts into the Giants' aspirations. HE GREETED THE CZAR. Experience of Nicholas II. With a Pa risian Street Arab.' ' Ou one of his visits to Paris Nicholas II. was left alone for a moment In bis carriage. The czar was delighted at the feeling of freedom and ease. Look ing out of the window with all the seat of a schoolboy playing truant be taw before him one of those, pictur esque street arabs who seem to sprout between the paving atones of Paris. This particular specimen, seated against the railings, t with his nose In the air, was whistling the refrain of the Busslan national hymn. Suddenly their eye met The street boy sprang to his feet He bad never seen the em peror, but he had seen his photograph, and the likeness was striking. "Suppose it is Nicholas?" he said to himself, greatly puzzled. He resolved to make sure without delay. Walking up to within a yard of the carriage and bobbing bis head, he shouted in a hoarse voice to the unknown foreigner: "How's the empress?" Picture his satisfaction-for, in fact, he thought that it was only a good Joke when the stranger replied, with smile: . "Thank you, the empress Is very well and la delighted with her Jour- ey. The boy lost his tongue. He stared at the speaker in dismay and then, raising his cap, stalked away slowly, very slowly, to mark his dignity. ' Nicholas 11. afterward often amused himself by scandalizing the formal set around him with the story of this pri vate interview with a true Parisian. McClure's Magazine. ' A SERIOUS PLAY. The Author Was Willing, Though, to Turn It Into a Comedy. The gallery god. no lesa than the patron of the padded chair, aspires to write for the stage. I have a vivid remembrance of the first of all 'the playe submitted for production at the Mew theater In New York. : It was from an employee to a local railroad station, probably a baggage smasher, and 1 shall betray no confidence In re cording that the author's name was Murphy. Though Mr. Murphy called his work play. It was in reality only a scenario.. It waa entitled "Jim's Wife." The plot waa as follows: in the first act Jim had no wife, but he took his girl to a dance Action They danced. In act second came the "great scene." The scene was caused by the fact that Jim's girl danced with another man. Jim felt impelled to kill blm. but be refrained, reflecting that such things did not occur In the best circles and would thus be socially unpleaslng to his lady. The curtain fell on his act ol self sacrifice in, pot killing the, other dancer. In act tbtrd there was still more action. Jim's girl rewardwl him for his delicacy by marrying him. Final curtain. Mr. Murphy seemed weighed down by a fear that bis play was too serious t lor tne New theater. In bis letter he said: "If you would rather have It a comedy I will send you the Jokes. 1 have a tew Jokes too.-Jobo Corbln in World'a 'Work. Hel to Match Walk. "In every theater audience there are critical persons who are prolific with suggestions for maklng.the play more realistic. said a stage manager. "Some of these hints are worth con sidering too. In one play that was taged not long ago the biggest hit was made by a character actress who had to wear down-at-the-heel shoes. On the third day of the New York run I received a letter from a shoemak er, who called my utteutloa to the fact that the woman's gait and her shoes did not ronteh. Her heels were run down on the outside, whereas the walk she assumed on the stage must Inevi tably cause her shoes to run over on the Inside. That was a point that had escaped the notice of everybody in the company. Cpon looking Into the matter we found ' plenty of evi dence to uphold our critic, and we se cured a pair of property sb(ie with heels worn away on the Inside." New York Press.
