{Richard P. Freeman, representative
elect from the Second Connecticut dis-
trict. came to town the other evening:
the last of the memberscloci of the
- next Congress from Connecticut to
visit the scene of their future labors.’
.Mr. Freeman appeared at one of the
House doors during the fight over the
shipping bill, and introduced himself.
to William Kenney, formerly of Hart-
ford, one of the doorkecpers, Kenney
referred him to one of the special re-
publican employees, who presented
Mr. Freeman to various members of
the House. Later the new member
called on the sergeant-at arms and
clerk of the House on ofiiciul business‘s. ‘
Representative Malian, his predeces—
sor, said he had not seen Freeman
here and so far as known none of the
Connecticut statesmen saw him.
Both Connccticut senators say that
the outlook now is that there will be
no extra session of Congress this year. 1
They do not think there is any chance
for the administration shipping bill to
become law. They and other republi-
can senators are doing what they can
to help the democratic leaders get
the regular appropriation bills through
within the ncxt week.

SOME CURIOUS EXPERIENCES.

Lynn.‘-How John Brougham Mad.
0 Hit Without His Loading Lady.
Quick wit has saved many an emhar
rassing situation, turned many it 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 at a difficulty dur-
ing the play. A college performance
was saved from wreckage by one of
the young actors.
One or the cast, a boy easily upset,
had Just given his line, “All I need is
an advertisement," when half of his
stage mustache fell off.
"Oh, no," said the ready youth he»
side him, seeing his embarrassment;
"what you need is a hair restorer."
And antler cover or the laughter the
victim had a chance to recover himself.
It was surely the saute readiness
that enabled Rose Eytlnge to go
through one of the most extraordinlu‘y
experiences any actress ever had. In
San Francisco she was once asked to
fill Mary Anderson’s place at short
notice, appearing with the local stock
company. The play was to be "East
Lynne." By singular chance, no prompt
book could be found, nor could they
secure a copy or the novel. Miss Ey-
tinge prottnsted that it would be fin.
possible for her to play, as she had
never so much as seen the place. That
fact they refused to believe. More
over. to add to her ditllctilty, though
all the company claimed to know the
,old drama backward. no one seemed
to have uii idea of the lines she. as
Lady lsttbcl, 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."
60 Miss Eytinge, rather than cause
the loss or closing the theater. went on
totally unprepared to act in an abso-
lutely unfamiliar play.
Tom chnc. the Archibald Carllsle.
instructed her in the proper emotion
front scene to scene. "Now she's a
jealous cut, it jealous cut." he would
whisper. "Now she's kittetty." "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 he generously handed
over half the, receipts to the heroine of
the hour, declared. “Well. you may
have had to vamp that part. but We
often seen it played with loss soul."
The story of an experience demand-
ing similar readiness of wit is told of
John Brougham, the early American
comedian and playwright. On one oc-
casion, when his own clever burlesque.
“Pocahontas." had been billed and the
house sold out in advance. the leading
actress left without warning to take
another position iti Baltimore! The un-
dience had assembled before her ab-
sence wns discovered by the manager
and star. As it was that play or noth-
ing, Brougham. who was famed for his
witty ltnpromptu speeches. went before
the curtain and sit ggestcd giving the.
piece without Pocahontas. He recalled 1
the old story of the actor who played
Hamlet so erect-ably that on the fol-
lowing night the tragedy was given.
with 'thnt character omitted by request. 2
"Now, if ‘Hamlet' can be acted with- 7
out the hero." he remarked, “why not ‘
‘l’ocuhonttis' without the heroine? Of
course you are all aware of the fad: .
