Irving’* Spectacles.
Sir Henry Irving has one peculiarity
that only those brought Into Intimate
contact with him recognize. This is in
regard to the number of spectacles and
glasses of various sorts that he always
has In hand, both at the Lyceum Thea
ter and at home! At the.LSeemp ,lig
Las quite two uozen pairs of itfticf
and another, and no employe about the
place ever-dreams of removing them,
for when Sir Henry is busy with some
production he is perpeuinlly losing his
spectacles, and, as lie; is far more de
pendent on these than most people
know, he flies to the nearest point
where he is sure lie may find a pair.
He is constantly buying new pairs Of
glasses, and when lie Is, good-naturedly
rallied about this be pleads guilty tq
having quite sixty paii-s either at the
theater or at home.
