TRICKS OF PASS -FIEND
Amateur Raffles Uses Many Schemes
to Get In Theater Free.
W. Dayton Wegefarth In Lippincott's.
It is customary in many theaters to
extend the courtesy of a matinee to
visiting players. At these perform
ances the chronic pass hunter can al
ways be found. He flits from theater
to theater, well stocked with neat cards
setting forth an imaginery engagement
with this or that traveling company.
Many times "the man on the door" dis
covers the deception, but often the card
Is O. K.'d and the fraud slips blithely
nto a seat, chuckling over the success
of his ruse. Afterward he will prob
ably "roast ' the production, for It Is a
tradition In theatricals that the man
who witnesses a play on a pasa seldom
has anything good to say of it.
Requests from newspapermen are nu
merous, but they are always welcome.
CognUant of. the kindly feeling be
tween the theatrical and the Journal
istic fraternities, the pass fiend often
tries to take advantage of It, He will
have cards printed, or even engraved,
setting forth his connection with some
local or remote publication which de
votes space to theatricals. Presenting
his card to the company manager, he
announces brazenly that be has been
sent to "write up" the production. Al
ways on the alert to procure publicity,
the manager generally admits the
faker. Sometimes he is referred to the
house manager, who is better acquaint
ed with the local writers.
Policemen and plain clothes men of
the -districts in which a theater is lo
cated are often admitted free, it being
usually necessary for them merely to
display their badges. If the pass fiend
cannot think of a better way to gain
entrance, he will perhaps buy an an
cient badge, or a new one marked
special officer." Attaching this to his
vest, he flashes it Importantly as he
passes the ticket taker, at the same
time making some Jocular remark
about the lieutenant of the district, or
the political situation. This, however,
is too old a trick to be often effective.
The telephone offers still another me
dium to the pass hunter. He must first
learn the names of the managers and
treasurers ot several theaters. Equipped
with this Information, the rest is easy.
Having decided on the production he
desires to witness, he calls the theater
on the telephone.
"I should like to speak with Mr. Fil
bert, your treasurer," he begins.
At the phone." comes the reply.
How do you do, Mr. Filbert?" the
suave fellow pursues. "I am speaking
for Mr. Murray, the treasurer at the
Grand. He would like to know wheth
er you can spare two seats for tonight."
"Certainly, Is the reply. 'Til leave
them at the box office."
"Thank you very much. I suppose
he'll either send for them this after
noon or bis people will call tor themj

MANNERS IN THE DESERT
Horsestealing Gets Effective Check
From a Wise Arab.
Youth's Companion.
The following; attractive story was
told many years ago by an iingusn
traveler in Turkey In Asia, who trans
lated It from the language of that coun
try:
In the tribe of Negedeh there was a
wonderful horse, whose beauty ana
speed were unequaled; and a Bedouin
of another tribe, whose name was
Daber, longed to possess It, Having; In
vain offered camels and all his gold for
it, he at length hit upon the following
device. He resolved to stain his face,
to clothe himself In rags, to limp as If
disabled and thus to play the part of 3
lame beggar.
In this disguise be waited on the road
for Naber, the owner of the horee, who
he knew was to pass that way. When
he saw him approaching on his beauti
ful steed, he cried out In a weak voice:
"I am a poor stranger! For three
days I have been unable to move from
this spot to look for food. Help me, and
heaven will reward you."
The Bedouin kindly offered to take
him upon his horse and carry him home,
but Xaber replied: 1
"Alas! I cannot rise; I have no
strength left."
Naber, touched with pity, dismounted
led his horse to the spot, and with great
difficulty set the seeming beggar on his
back. But no sooner did Daber feel
himself In the saddle than he set spurs
to the steed and galloped off, calling
out as he rode: "It is I, Daber!"
Naber called after him to stop and
listen. Certain that he could not be
caught, be turned, and baited a short
distance from Naber.
"You have taken my horse,"' said
Naber, "and since heaven has willed it.
I give you Joy of it, but I conjure you
never to tell anyone how you ob
tained it." , '
"Why not?" asked Daber.
"Because," replied the noble Arab,
"another man might be really ill, and
men would fear to help him. You would
be the cause of many refusing to per
form an act of charity for fear of being
duped as I have been."
Daber was silent for a moment; then
springing from the horse, he returned
it to Its owner, and begged his forgive
ness. Naber made him accompany him
to his tent, where they passed a few
days together, and became friends for
life.
THE MARKET AT CAIRO
Practically Every Known Language
Spoken in the Egyptian City.
Clayton Sedgwick Cooper in the Wide
world Magazine.
Cairo market is most cosmopolitan.
Practically every known language is
spoken there English, French, Greek,
Spanish, Italian, Turkish, and, of
course. Arabic trench, however, pre
vails, for France had a strong linguis
tic hold on Egypt for many years pre
vious to the British occupation. The
fruit and vegetables are sold by native
Egyptian men and women, but the
butchers' shops are mainly In the hands
of the French. I found to my sorrow
while In Cairo that being a foreign
tradesman is not a passport for hon
esty. There may be something in the
air in Egypt, but the French shopkeep
ers, both big and little, have at least
acquired one of the failings of the
Arab a lack of commercial probity.
But where the Arab Is satisfied with a
small percentage, the wily Frenchman
tries to figure of how much you can
be mulcted without making an outcry.

The vegetable market is extremely
good, livery known variety is tempt
lngly displayed and at most reasonable
prices for the Arab buyers. For In.

get four for 2 piastres (about 19 cents),
but Ramazan could get for the same
money 10 great luscious beauties which
he would choose from a basket, puti
ting aside all that were not perfect,
and which were sold to unsophisticated
shoppers like myself. One is beset by
hawkers who carry baskets of oranges
on their heads, or by the lemon man
who carries his goods concealed some
where about his person. The straw
berry man is always In evidence and
will follow one all over the market,
endeavoring to persuade one to try his
wares. In many foreign cities It would
be impossible to buy in the public mar
ket place, but Cairo is so large and
has such a mixed population that you
find yourself only one of many, here

who are selling produce of some kind.
