Pathetic Incident From Which the Una of Black Linee Come. “One of the greatest tragedies of the theater," said a prominent come dian. “is connected with the clown. “In the time of Louis XIV’. there was a famous clown known as ’Fat William’ (Gros Guillaume), who held his audience in the Rue Favarl by his wonderful eccentricities of gesture, voice and mimicry. One night, so the legend runs, his wife was dying, and he wag still obliged to go on and eif tertain tho clanking, clashing, ribald Parisian mob that stood in the pit- It was in the «lays before there were seats in the orchestra. “Like all imitatom of the Italian 'commedla.' his fare was whitened Lnd« r the burden of his with flour great domestic sorrow he wag stupid ami slow In Ilfs perfornmnee. and in order to stir him up his companion on the stage hit him a resounding whar-k with a heavy cane. The com bination of his sentimental troubles and the physical pain caused Gros Guillaume to weep. As the tears streamed down over bls whitened face the aspect was so comical that the au dience cheered and laughed Itself into hysterics. And ever since then every clown has black lines on hin whitened face. “Many are the black lines on the face of the actor that the audience knows not of.”—Chicago Tribune.
