rrederlck Wardo Mot a Singer
A very good story Is told about tho
distinguished tragedian. Frederick
W'arde, who Is coming to this city short
ly In an elaborate production of "Julius
Caesar." Home years ago when Mr.
Wardo first came to this country, lie
was engaged ns leading man of thu
famous Hooth's Theatre In New York
City. During the season n play was
produced In which ho appeared as a
handsome youth and wus supposed to
sing u song, u sort of serenade. Mr.
Wurde never clulmed any vocal talent
In that direction and demurred, so It
was arranged that tho song nhottld bo
rendered In tho wings, and Charles Pike,
a very excellent baritone, was engaged
to sing tho song. After It was llnlshcd,
Mr. Wardo as tho dashing young heio
was to leap a hedge on the stage and
proceed with tho action of tho play. On
tho opening night everything proceeded
smoothly, Mr. Plko sang tho sung and
Mr, Wardo leaped tint hedge, but nt
this Juncture tho uudlence took u hnud
In It. The song hail made a hit, auif
tho audience doinauded an encore. Mr.
Wardo was nonplussed and confused for
it moment, then he leaped back over tho
hedge nnd Mr. Plko sang again; but by
this time tho audience had "caught on"
and when the handsome young uctor
mmlo his next appearance, ho was greet
ed with a roar of laughter and u round
of applause. After that night song was

Hnsklns for Health.
His natnu was John C. Motter, he said,
and his home Is at Oakland, Or., or,
rather, that Is where he was last em
ployed. He Is u professional "hired
hand," he said.
All of which has but llltle to do with
the story, except to Identify the lead
ing man.
He went Into a restaurant which Is
patronized by the kind of men who say:
"Come on, bo; let's grub th eats."
Well, Motter went Into this restaur
ant. He said all the time that he never
visited town to speak of, this being his
second nppeorunce, and tho first time
he wus with his "boss."
Ho ho took off his hat and that Iden
tified )il tn as a newcomer and sat
down ut the counter, A number of
others carno In nt ubout thu same time
und things were lively.
"Ohnme a beefsteak fried with on
ions. If It ain't too much trouble, pleuse,"
said Mr. Motter.
The waiter stood aghast. Then he re
covered his composure and turning IiIh
face townul the kitchen door, yelled;
"John Dull! Make hlin u glnny'"
The "hired hand" wasn't sure whether
he wus Insulted, or whether tho waiter
had his order mixed, but he waited.
A man next to Motter gave his order,
"Hash," he said, laconically.
"dent wants to take a chance," yelled
tho waiter.
It sounded like tho open ward of the
foolish housu to Motter, but still he
waited and said nothing.
Tho waiter had reached tho third
man. "Chicken croquettes,' said the
customer.
"Fowl ball!" yelled the waiter.
The fourth mnn along tho lino or
dered frankfurters and sauerkraut, good
and hot,
"Fldo, Shep and a bule of hay," yelled
tho waiter, "and lot 'eh slzzlul"
Motter edged off his stool and stood
up. Ho iiud a wild glitter In his eye.
"Two scrambled eggs on toast," said
n man,
"Hrldo nnd groom on a raft; wreck
'em," shouted tho waiter.
It was then thut Motter picked up
Ills hut and tied the scene.
"Here," shouted thu waiter as Motter
went out tho door. "Como through with
thu kalo; you gotto kick In whether
you wrap yourself 'round tho stuffliV
or not."
Hut ho was too lute. Motter had
gone.
"Why, that's n regular crazy house,"
he said lust night. "When I order some
thing to eat I don't want to bo Insult

either. Why. say. If I had stayed I
