He has had a very interesting career, and is full cf fascinating H.ir o m i m eccncGs. Ho is a nativo of Grant county, Ky., and at tho ago of 17 started out to seek his JOHN WOODAED. fortimo. Ho XVent down tho Licking and Ohio rivers ou a flatboat to Louisville, -vLero he met an actor, James Beccm, who persuaded him to adopt tho stage as his career. For three years Woodard roved about tho country with different companies, and finally reached St. Louis. Every cno who know hira declared that ho would soon dio cf consumption, and Woodard concluded to fool them. For tho purpose of doing so and im proving his health he started across tho plains with Sam Smith, afterward tho author cf "Struck Oil" and othei plays, and when ho finally reached California was in excellent physical conditica. Kis clothing was so tattered and his hair and whiskers wero so luxuriant, however, that he was enabled for a time to pose m a fcacramento museum ns a captured wild man. Ho then organized a co-oper-ativo theatrical company r.nd made a great deal of money playing in mining camps. Tho company consisted of a manager, an ''orchestra," made up of a singlo fiddler, and six actors, two wom en and four men. They hung up blue blankets for wings, dispensed with tho formality of a curtain, and produced such easy plays as "Hamlet," "Mac beth" and "Tho Lady of Lyons." Woodard was always in creat demand as a singer, although, as he remarks, ho "couldn't sing a littio bit." Ho mod estly admits, however, that his audi ences favcred him particularly becauso he wrcto his own songs and made them up to date. It was at this timo that he wrote My nniiio it is Joo Bowers; I've got a brother Ike; I'm just from old Missouri Yes, sJ tho way from Tike. He ako wroto "The Days of Forty nine," and both ong3 wero published in San Francisco and becamo popular all over tho world. t Fighting: at Crete. Atiiexs, Nov. 25.

New York 4IiIllonaires, Call Numbers Arc Not Public rrcperty. Thcro nro somo very aristocratic tele pheno owners in tho city, but a study cf tho telephouo directory, supplied for the uso cf the general public does not reveal this fact. This is done purposely. It is no uso getting" mad if, yheii you ask for; Mr. Crcesus Vanderbilt's telephone number the girl at tho other cud asks ii you den't knovr it, When you say that you don't know it or try to fool her aud say ytiu did b.ixo it, but lest the memo randum, ho will answer br.ek, "We cannot give you Mr. Crcesus Vander bilt's houso nuless ycu know the num ber." Tho fact cf it is the girl would ba breaking strict rules of the company il sho gave this information. There are a good many millionaires and prominent society families who have telephones iu their residences, but they are for private use. Only tho friendis of the head of the houso and a for other persons know the number. The mistress cf the mansion leaves the number with her friends, and in exchange receives their numbers. She ako leaves her number with tho head Oi tho hospital whero sho happens to be on tho managing committee. This exclusive system is adopted in order that outsiders ennuot ennoy Mr. Millionaire by ringing him up oa the telephone. Tho men who havo tele phones put into their palaces do so with tho proviso that" their names and tele phono numbers shall not appear in the directory. New York World. SOCIETY PRINTING.
