Actors Are Often Called Upon to Exercise Quick Wit SOME CURIOUS EXPERIENCES. Rosa Eytinge One Extemporized the Entire Part of Lady Isabel In "East Lynne" How John Brougham Made Hit Without Hie Leading Lady. Quick wit has saved many an embar rassing situation, turned many a seem ingly disastrous failure into success. Politics, literature, courtesy, all are served by quick tongue and ready word. Actors, as well as business men, have special use for quick wit. so often do they need help out of a difficulty dur ing the piny. A college performance wus saved from wreckage by one of the young actors. One of the cast, a boy easily upset, bad Just given bis line. "All I need is an advertisement," when balf of bis stage mustache fell off. "Oh. no," 8ii Id tlie ready youtb be side him, seeing bis embarrassment; "what you need is a hair restorer." And under cover of the laughter the victim hud a chance to recover himself. It was surely the same readiness that enabled Rose Eytinge to go through one of the most extraordinary experiences any actress ever hud. In San Francisco she was once asked to. fill Mary Anderson's place at short notice, appearing with the local stock compuny. .The play was to be "East Lynne." By singular chance, no prompt book could be found, nor could they secure a copy of the novel. Miss Ey tinge protested that it would be lm possible for ber to play, as she hnd never so much as seen the piece. That fact they refused to believe. More over, to add to her difficulty, though all the company claimed to know the old drama backward, no one seemed to have an idea of the lines she, as Lady Isabel, would have to speak. "Oh. that'll be all right," said John McCullough. the manager, to whom she appealed. "Just you sob and look sorry, and it will go." So Miss Eytinge, rather than cause the loss of closing the theater, went on totally unprepared to act In an abso lutely unfamiliar play. Tom Keene. the Archibald Carlisle, Instructed her In the proper emotion from scene to scene. "Now she's a Jealous cat, a Jealous cat." be would whisper. "Now she's kitteny." "Now she's sorry she was such a fooL" "Now she wants her young ones." "Now she up and dies. The performance seemed to cause en tire satisfaction to the audience, and McCullough, as be generously handed over half the receipts to the heroine of the hour, declared, "Well, you may have had to vamp that part, but I've often seen It played with less soul." The story of an experience demand. lng similar readiness of wit is told of John Brougham, the early American comedian and playwright. On one oc casion., when bis own clever burlesque. "Pocahontas." had been billed nnd the house sold out in advance, the leading actress left without warning to take another position In Baltimore. The an dlence bad assembled before ber ab sence was discovered by the manager and star. As it was that piny or notb ing. Brougham, who was fumed for bis witty Impromptu speeches, went before the curtain and suggested giving the piece without Pocahoutas. He recalled the old story of the actor who played Hamlet so execrably that ou the fol lowing night the tragedy was given with that character omitted by request Now, if 'Hamlet' cun be acted with out the hero," he remarked, "why not Pocahontas' without the heroine? Of course you are all aware of the fact thnt 'Pocahontns' Is a much greater play than 'Hamlet' Even If you do not know thnt, 1 do. and I ought to, for I wrote it myself. Are you willing to try it?" "Go ahead:" came the cries from the audience, who settled themselves back to see the result The burlesque proceeded as nsual nntil the entrance music wos played for rocahontns; then, turning toward the audience, Brougham, as Powhatan, sadly began: "Ladles and gentlemen, thnt sweet strain is supposed to bring my daughter Pocahontas on the stage. You are already aware that she Is in the city of Baltimore, and the stern law of the land will not permit a Chris tian, much less a savage, to be in two places at once. Thus does the law protect that most useful Instrument, the alibi. However. If Poky were here she would hasten to say" Whereupon the comedian gave ber lines In exact Imitation of the missing actress, keep ing up the dialogue in two persons all through the play. The delighted peo ple who were fortunate enough to be present declared that Brougham was avenged. G. P. Huntley tells of an Incident that took place at an east side theater In London. The "gods" were booing the piece and throwing chunks of bread at the performers. , At Inst the. star came forward and said: "Now, look here! We're trying our best to amuse you. Throw bread. If you like; but." he added as be stopped and picked up n chunk, "thank heaven I'm not too proud to eat it" The gods were vanquished Anna Bird Stewart In New York Tribune. Labor conquers all things.
