THE ADVANCE AGENT TELLS HOWHIS |

FRIENDS OBSERVED THIS RULE.

A Monager of a Pyrotechnic Show Who Didn't Want to Disappoint His Audi- ence—A Monument Which Proves That llis Efforts Were Appreciated,

‘*T always strive to please,’’ remarked the dramatic editor, as he scratched the words ‘‘big thing’’ out of the advance notice he was writing and substituted ‘*‘megatherian aggregation. ’’

‘‘Thanks, I am sure,’’ said the ad- vance agent, as he read over the ten lines the dramatic critic was giving to him, and carefully put back into his pocket the half column notice he had first drawn on the d. c.

‘*T presuine,’’ smiled the d. c., ‘‘that you always strive to please, too, don’t you?’

‘*Not always’’—in a semidisappointed tone—‘‘ but I used to have a friend who

and what he an audience

co to please

Wasn't worth doing.’’ ‘‘Where is he now?” **Dead.”’

**Dead?’’

**Yes, it killed him. It was this way: He was in the pyrotechnic branch of the dramatic art and used to give shows at ous of those imitation Conev Islands +o t rn, fonnd on vn arly evory send } ar in nearly v-er river tributary to the Mis- sissippi. He had been the originator of the fireworks feature at this place, and his phenomenal success had made him so proud that he would sooner have died than bad a failure. One Fourth of July he was going to give the grandest dis- play of his life, and the feature in the biggest letters on the bill was a set piece, 100 feet high, with an enormeus balloon loaded with fireworks to go up from the top as a grand finale. There were ten times as many people there that night as there had ever been, and my friend was feeling so good you could see it in his walk.

‘Everybody was on edge, too, for the grand blaze of glory the management had been advertising for weeks, and when, promptly at the hour of 10 o'clock, my friend stepped forth like a peacock to set off the great display with | his own hand there was a round of ap- plause, followed by a dead silence as the audience sat breathless watching for the burst of blazing glory. But some- how it didn’t burst. The professor fired the train and retreated to a safe place, but the powder wouldn’t burn. It fizzled and went out instead. Once, twice, thrice, it fizzled, sputtered and went out, and then the crowd began to grow] and guy, as crowds always will, and the professor began to get wild.

“Several other attempts to set the piece off were no more successful, and at last, with a smothered scream of crazy rage, he shot up the ladder of the tewer to its very top, where he had a platform stored with all sorts of inflam- mable and explosive things arranged to go oif at the proper time. He stood there a moment silhouetted against the sky, the crowd indulging in gibes and jeers, with now and then a threat as to

come down to the ground. This was his time to show what be could do to please his audience, and in a minute, and be- fore anybody had any idea what he would do next, he caught up an armful of the explosives about him, fastened them to his clothes and hung wreaths and rings over his neck and shoulders, and, setting the whole thing afire, he swung out into the air in the balloon, which was already tugging at its anchor.

‘*As the balloon shot up it was a ter- rific sight, aud the poor devil’s shrieks added to the intensity of the scene, al- ready lurid with red and blue lights, while the air was filled with all manner of bursting bombs and crashing explo- sives. Women fainted, men ran help- lessly about shouting, and still the bal- loon swept upward with its fiery freight and passenger, until, when it had reached a point 1,000 feet above the earth, it caught fire and the whole burning mass shot like a blazing ball straight to the ground.

‘*You will be safe in betting thore people never saw euch an exhibition as

| that before, nor will ever again in all | probability,

and when it was over,’’ coneluded the agent, ‘‘the audience seemed to realize what the professor had done to please them, and they chip- ped in and built him a monument where he fell, having on it, besides his name and the proper dates, no other in- scription except‘ He strived to please.’ ’’ The dramatic critic was at least half a minute in recovering his speech after the recital of remarkable tale, and before he could ask any questions the advance agent had folded his tent like a circus and stolen away to the office of the next dramatic critic he had to call upon.-—Washington Star.

A Toad as a Talisman.

The Western Morning News reports a remarkable case of superstition. A young Woman in Penzance had suffered from fits, and she adopted a remedy which would be to most people almost as repulsive as the disease itself. procured a live toad, placed it in a bag, hung it around her neck and carried it next her body. The woman was cured of her fits, but she was being medically attended at the Pensance infirmary at the same time. The woman believes, towever, that this was a coincidence aad that her strange talisman was the instrument of her cure.—South Wales News.

The Man (expectantly)—Then you will be my wife?
