But Mr. Miller that tyrant MiUer wrapped for

, Mr. filler is a power. He ia wonder. He ia one of
the 'moat remarkable men I ever aa. -He ia young and
dark and quite good looking. ' That ia all right., Many

whenever Mr. Miller aaw fit to open that remarkable

Tii 1Hi all had them. The srentlemen all had them
even more aeriously. l was staggering to look pp and
down the row of chairs and try and keep track of those
polka dotsT It made you dizzy." You would fasten your
eyes intently on one pattern of -dots 'and announce to
yourself in firm tones that you would inot move until
you bad - solved the mytery of the dots and their size.
You would watch them "intently for. as' much as JQ
seconds. . Then-your vision would begin to blur. Queer
noises would ring in your ears. You would see dots fly
ing around in your vision blue dot and green ones and
red and purple varieties. .Your senses would reel and
evething would be black but i black withvaricgated
polka dot. Then you-would give H up. .Those, dots
.were hot mere styles in hosiery. They approached to
the dignity of creations ,1 aft not recall exactly who
wore.what. . But J. believe .thia table of Easter r dots to
be correct as far as it goes: . v . ;

' It's unfortunate that I can't give what the ladies of
the chorus wore-that- I am forbidden.1' ?ut the above
list will give the careful reader a fair idea of the latest
effects in hosiery styles for the profession. ,
Perhaps '.Me. Miller wore them, too. I was too much
in awe of him to look. -He was the busiest thing imag
inable. He picked a girl out here and there, and told her
sheiwas to stng this part. s . i N;
'tlere, you," he called Violet, "you step up and take
this line 4I like nausrhty men the best.'" '.-
'Oh,sir,"Baid 'Violet, all'in a pretty confusion, "I
arrf afraid. I would rather she took it." pointing to the
retiring; Minerva at her right. ' . -,
Mineryi was there,-oh, yes, and Minerva stepped up
and spoke her-Hnes:. ' - '
- "No, no, nol" estclainied the wonder. "That's all

wrong. You look as though you preferred St. Anthony.
Then they tried another bit of the act. Frank Her
trapd waa to make his bow, offer lna arm to Amy
Leicester and make a auccessful exit from the atage
They tried it once but when the exit was half made Mr.
Bertrand dropped poor Amy'a hand in horror, lie ruined

The entire troupe flocked up to learn the cauieel ! the
excitement, and aympathy and advice we're extended by
all handa. - Daphne Pollard rushed in and tried to help.
Wallace Orownlow told Mr.. Miller . how the calamity
could be avoided. Gene Ormonde waa there with advice
arid Teddy Webb atrutted p to enlighten the mystery
of how Bertrand waaio be seen behind Amy ample

"Leave it to me, my dear, I'll arrange It, my dear,

lemma, bending her glances upon the diminutive come
dian. 'Mister Webbr t Miss Leicesrler straightened p
to her moat superb figure. It waa enough. Visions of
home without mother and other things floated yo
Mr, Webb's mental horizon and he retweH gracefully,
thohgh withal somewhat precipitously. -
Then, Mr. Miller stepped in and aettled it in two
minutes. "Take Mr, Bertrand'a arm. Miaa Leicester,
he aaid, in a refreshingly anappy manner. "Swing him
around a half turn. Now you, Bertrand, keep just a step
ahead and bend. over slightly. Ah.-'that's it; perfect
Now you're both in view and everybody happy."
Next came the ateps for that grand song; Follow

and one, two, three," and they were off. Not for long,
however,, for "Stop" came out in dreadful intonations
from Mr. Miller's throat, and there were more shrugs
and "more dismal looks. ' s " -v '
"That's wrong; entirely, wrong. ' Slop thinking about

I'll fine 'you. a , week'a pay" there was i a noticeable
stiffening of the backbones "Now try it again.". ' And
thia. time Mr. Miller himself assqmed the , active! role
of dancing master and led the class, stepping here and
there, gracefully bending and smiling rapturously in the
general direction of Mr. Healy and myself, "who repre

"of Bltuider. , i. ' ; ' ;i'-VVv-s
Juat what waa the matter wUh the
underwear, or what mystery it concealed
was not brought out in the' paper filed,
nnd Mrs. Stone did not tare to discuss
, ft. But whatever it waa it teemed etif
flclent to Impel Mi Raymond to come
to Philadelphia to express her 'opinion
Then" the varied the chorusY singing" it to-the accom
paniment of .the professor, .who aat af th piano' alter
nately beating time and the keys. It soon became, the
nrnfessor'a turn to interruot the merrymakers. "Achl"
he cried after a particularly brilliant .failure to trike the
proper notes. "Girls, don't forget dem high lG flats;
does who srot 'emvou know?" and immediately there
broke loose, a medlev of sopranos aiming at high G flat.
The notes went wild ana conld be, heard imbedding
themselves all' over the plaster of the walls and ceiling.
"There: you've all rone to perdition again," said Mr,
Miller, tragically, and advisory, committee immediately
stepped up to offer its aervicea. "I think it should be
thi way," said Daphne Pollard, wriggling into -the fore
front of the affair. Miss Leicester thought it snoum De
another way. -Mr. Webb gave his opinion. Mri Brown
low cave his. Mr. "Healey. ! who owns the show, sat
meekly by and listened mutely. He was the only one
who had not a word to say. He was very humble .in
the oresence of his minions. Occasionally he asked
about this or that but only in the most deferential of
tones. The chorus ladies marched up and down before
him' haughtily, displaying their lovely Easter' creations
'a a a t - u.-
and ne scarcely aarea mi nis eyes.
- -Then they tried it over again, with Mr. Miller as the
center of the fray. Mr. Weiner was .to march in holding
an imaginary bomb in his hands, to place it down and
then retire in an insane horror as someone referred to
his voice He did ita rather fine bit of work. And it
was-easy to tell who Mrs. Weiner. was. For Georgia
Campbell came over to him and whispered, encourag
ingly, ''That's it, 'Gene, fine." And ,'Gene retired satis
fied. ' . . '
;y"-- " ;-
- Mr. 'Miller was everywhere and everything. If the
Bowery tough was not tough enough' Mr. Miller showed
him how and fairly yanked. the clothes off Miss Gray.
If Miss Gray herself was too awkward he took ter place
and showed her how a lady1 should dance. Now he led
the music and now he led the dance,-first on one foot
and then qn the other. I don't know how much Mr.
Miller gets. But I feel that he earns his money. He is
the most active person?' Is have seen in Portland.
Give him two years and he could reform theciry.' He
would have us all placing our hands on our hips and keep
ing time with our feet as we whispered, "one, two, three,
one,: two,' three, and a one, two, three," ' He would go
down the; Columbia and bring the battleship fleet up by
main force. And he'd make them keep', time as they
did it, too. He would have us "cleaning up the streets
and command us to look merry as we swept. And no
doubt we'd do it, just as he directed us to.
He whippedi those poor dears into shape in less than
ah' hour. Few 'of them struggled after the first words
directed towards their part of the hall. They smiled
when he told them to. They danced when he gave the
word. Easter finery was forgotten. Even the polka
dots were transformed into a rainbow haze. The cstumes
didn't seem to : worry him a bit The lost 'score was
nothing to him. Minerva and her plumes traced it back
and forth across the nali snd never tattered. It didn t
seemito. tire M Miller' at all. He was indefatigable.
But it grew late and Easter dinner had hs attractions.
If it hadn't been for that I suppose I should still be
listening to' -Mr Miller's cheery tones as he bolstered up
the faltering stepsof Ruby and Violet and Agnes and
Lily and Marian. The next time I feel in need of a real
electric, bracer I'm going to watch Mr. Miller drill his
chorus." i here s nothing nkj it nutown.

trouble had its beginning-.
The fillnir of th suit may bring; ex
planation of an unuaual occurrence at
the Lyric theatre, where Mrs. Stone
has charge of -the wardrobe room. , last
night Befori the curtain raised,
voice could be heardplainly in all parte
of the houae denouncing- norne one as a
"thief and a "dead beat.'. Indeed 1
was apparent that the raising- pf the
courtain was delayed until the strident
voice ceased 'its . accusations, - and tne
orchestra struck up a piece ia which
the bass drum had an Important part to
drown out the vocal tumult- - . ;
' From the papers recorded H seeme
that Miss Raymond, when she was play
ing in Philadelphia, some weeks , ago,
ordered Mrs. Stone to make her . four
suits of the ofarrec cardinal coloyThe
latter vm unable tocomplete the work
before Miss Raymond left the city, and
frequently afterward the actress would
call up Mrs. Stone by long distance
telephone to ask about the garments.
Finally, becoming Impatient she told
Mr. Stone to send them on Just as they
were, aad she ' would have , them fin
ished. Mrs. Stone did as, requested, she
avers. ' - -1 - ... - .
Last night Just as the performance
was about ito begin,, womerl in j the
dressing 'rooms of the ; Lyric were
startled by a descent of Miss Raymond
on the theatre. Then, It Is alleged, she
told Mrs. Stone what she thought of
her but although che. talked a great
deal, no one was able to find out Just
what was the matter with . the underwear.-
.)- aior- s- s - -
Mrs. Stone was so scandalised at the
attack that she decided the only thing
to do was to sue for damages. .- --. -'j -,t .,
