He was a Bne

raconteur and a good after dinner
speaker. Rutland Barrington, the old
Savoyard, said that "staying in Gil-
bert's bouse was like living In a lit
erary Breworks factory.”
Barrington played the Captain In
“Pinafore." At rehearsal oue day Gil
bert. wbu was an autocratic and mag
nificent stage malinger, told him to
cross tbe stage, which represented the
deck of H. M 8 Pinafore, aud sit on
a skylight "in a pensive attitude.”
Barrington obeyed orders, tint unfortu
nately the skyligbt bad only been

Barrington crashed through it.

Gilbert in a flask.
