He May Now Add Writing Plays and Bill i Posting to His Accomplishments. “Now that I have a theatre of my own, I should like nothing better than to be an active theatrical manager," said Chauncey Depew, with a twinkle in his eye, when asked regarding his acquisition of the Depew Theatre. The theatre in question is the opera house of Peekskill, and Dr. Depew bought it under foreclosure proceedings. “When I first put money into it I Ind no idea of going in so deeply,” he said; and then he added, “but if I hadn’t gone in, I would never have owned a theatre all by myself. Now I should like to give up this desk and give my entire attention to a theatrical com- puny.” Peekskill is Dr. Dcpew’s birthplace. Two hundred and thirty years ago an ancestor purchased a farm there, and ever since it has been the home of the Dcpews. And so when, ten years ago, a committee of his native townsmen waited on him and asked him to sub: scribe toward the building of an opera house that would be a credit to the town, he put down his name for $1,- 500. The building was planned to cost $30,000, and $18,000 was raised by a mortgage given to the" Peckskill Sav- ings Bank. It was found later that $60,000 would be needed, and Dr. De- pew was asked to come to the pro- jectors’ assistance. ' “If I hadn’t, I should certainly have lost what I had already put in.” said he, “and should have left a half-built failure to face the streets of my native town. And so I gave $20,000, and took a second mortgage. That was five years ago, and I have never received a cent of interest, for the venture has not paid financially. At first it was called the Peekskill Opera House, but after that second mortgage they called it the Depew Opera House. Altogether, I have put $45,000 into it. “I think now I must turn my atten- tion to writing a play. I have made ad- dresses on every conceivable subject of human interest; I have written es- says, historical articles, novellettes and short stories. But,”——and there was a humorous wistfulness in his voice—— "I have never tried to write a play, and I shall certainly never have a bet- ter chance of staging it.” The house was dedicated on Sep- tember 15, 1892, and people stood in line for an entire day waiting for a chance to buy tickets. “Jim the Pen- man,” was played. Dr. Depew deliv- ered an oration. “I played to a full house that night,” said he. “As a manager I have experi- ence, too. . On my trip across the ocean last summer the Daly Company was on board, and 'we got up an en- tertainment for the Fourth of July, which was repeated for the second cabin, and for the steerage. I was manager of the arrangements.” Dr. Depew considers his new role a great joke. But there is a'business side to it, also, for he says he has not assumed it for fun. ‘ YE OLDEN DAYS. Trials and Tribulations of the Revolution- ary Dames. Mrs. Alice Morse Earle, in her “Wo— men of Colonial and Revolutionary Times,” gives an account of the tribu- lations of Puritan housewives at that period. One extract expressed in the quaint language of the period will touch a sympathetic cord at the present day. It relates to experience with a domestic, told in the letter of a newly married Woman to her mother. The writer acquaints her parent with the great affliction that presses upon her through the vicious conduct of a maid. When the latter first came to service. she, as is not unusual, aroused expect- ations that a treasure had been discov- cred. In a short time, however, she was revealed in her true light, and, according to the young bride, devel- oped “such a head, and is growen so insolent that her carriage toward us, and especially myself, is insufierable.” If she be ordered to do a certain thing, she bids her mistress to do it herself; she delights in telling how well she can perform her duty if she is so minded, but will not through perver- sity. The daughter recoils from re- peating to her mother “all the reviling speeches and filthy language she has used toward me.” The lady’s hus— band, who is apparently a. man of deep Christian convictions and bearing, comes to the rescue and endeavors to reason with the recalcitrant maid. He is assailed with a vocabulary unfit even for record in a. private letter. He retires discomfited, and seeks consola- tion presumably in prayer. A corres- pondent, who some four or five months ago engaged a kitchen maid in an iso- lated rural locality, encountered the same experience as the Puritan house- wife of a hundred and fifty years or more ago, although in this case the man of the house was not of a meek and lowly temper, and brought the lightning rod almost to the melting point through the fervor of his lan- guage. Why He Objected. “So, you do not think a‘minister ought to ride a bicycle?” “No; I didn’t say that at all. But I do think he ought not to tackle it un- less he is sure his religion can stand the strain of learning.”—Boston Trans- cript. ‘ " When in Doubt, Play Trumps. “I don’t know,’? cried the Excited Feminine Voice in the Darkness, “whether you are my husband or a burglar, but I’m going to be on the safe side and shoot.”-—Detroit Trib- une.

"‘Miss Yam isn’t at all musical.” “How do you know?” “I offered to sing ‘Oh, Promise Me,’ last night, and she said she’d promiSe anything if I wouldn’t. / i I, _ ’NEW YORK, LETTER. ‘When years ago I used to come down from 'up the state to visit New. York, nothing impressed me more than the people I encountered. I suppose every occasional visitor to the metropolis has something of the same feelings which I experienced in my younger days in viewing the (never ending, surging crowd that seems always present in Gotham’s thoroughfares. Invisibly and almost imperceptibly the character of many of the mosI populous districts of New York city is changing, and the extent of the change IS not realized or clearly understood by many persons. The population as given by the census of 1890-was 1,515,- 000. Though to a considerable extent for- eign immigration to the city of New York, not. including immigration for transit through the city, has fallen off since 1893, the increase of the cosmo- politan population of New York goes on at such a ratio that instead of New York’s surrendering anyof its former prominence as a cosmopolitan city, ii is increasing it. Though by the last Federal census the Irish-born popula- tion of New York outnumbered the [talian population by nearly five to one, there were more children born to Ital- ian than to Irish parents in the quar- ter covered by the last report. In some localities where the Irish population was formerly predominant Italians have superseded it. In the Fourteenth ward, for instance, made famous in many local plays and newspaper sketches as a stronghold of Irish resi- dents, there were only seven children born of Irish parentage to 258 Italians, and in the Sixth ward the figures were nothing to 91. The fact which all these figures establish is perfectly plain to any observer that the city of New York is becoming every day more and more of a foreign city, it is extend- ing its cosmopolitan character, and there are no longer German districts or Russian districts or French colonies or English settlements. The heterogen- eous population has become scattered, so that there are, in fact, only two or three American wards left. . Kleptomania is again claiming the attention of'scientidc as well as in- credulous ~ minds, by reason of the pleadings of guilty by Mrs. Castle, the rich California lady who was recently accused by London shopkeepers. The I press reports say that when the judge pronounced his sentence of three months imprisonment Mrs. Castle stood dazed for a moment and then, as the full import of the Chairman’s words came to her, became hysterical, oblig~ ing the nurses and the prison warden to support her. She then began to moan piteously and finally to scream and struggle violently. She was re- moved from the room as quickly as possible and as she was being taken away cried out: “What does it mean? My God! What does it mean?” ' A good many of the women in the court room exhibited strong emotion, several of them weeping and all ex- pressing deep sympathy with the un- fortunate prisoner, whose screams could be heard faintly issuing from the underground passage through which 'she was taken even after the court room had been cleared. New York has its kleptomaniacs as almost all the large stores can testify. I‘he lavish displays of goods are verit- 1b1e provocators of special thefts. They constitute a real danger for feeble or sickly persons. A great many women who would not steal elsewhere here find themselves fascinated and over- whelmed with a desire to appropriate small articles within their reach. It is a temptation that is truly diabolic, for the chances of detection are mini- mized at certain hours during the day when the stores are crowded, and each clerk has many customers waiting to the goods that lie upon the counters. The‘best method of preventing these women from becoming thieves would be, it seems, to station at each counter an-ofiicer of the law, not in ordinary dress like the rest of the customers, but in a uniform as conspicuous and noticeable as possible. London merchants profit by this un- fortunate weakness. When one finds that he has lost something by theft, hp ascertains the names of those of his kleptomaniac clients who have visited so, and to each of these he sends a circular requesting that they forward to him at once the missing article in question or price. The kleptomaniac does not remember whether she has stolen or not; she pays at once, there- fore, to ease her awakened conscie‘hce. It so happens, therefore, that for the same theft as many as ten families will indemnify one of these great stores and the wily Britisher will pocket the entire proceeds and become himself the real criminal. ‘CYRUS THORP.
