deep delving Into theatrical history to

years more than the surface indicates.
it Is due to a lifetime devoted to mild
forms of athletics and strict dieting.
That la It is strict tome of the time,
but it la not strict when Mr. Kelcey
devotes several summer months to ly
ing in hammocks and listening to the
sleepy soughing of the breezes in the
trees. Ha usually goes up about
twenty-five pounds in weight at that
season and begins' to look BO years of
age. Then comes much exercise, very
light diet and an athletic regime which
pulls him down into the leading man
class again. Though the public does
not realise It, It is probable that the
average actor leads a more strictly
correct life In a hygienic way than a
member of any other calling.

If anybody cares about It, and It

Pr. A. T. nny of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, who recently
aci epted s call to the chair of A.S
■yrlology at Yale, has Issued a "i ill"
to Dr. Herman V. Hilprect. Pr. Jlll
prect claims that he has discovered In
the ruins of the Temple library at
Nippur a "deluge tablet," which must
mean that It was written about the
tim« of the flood, presumably a love
letter from ono of the sons of Noah
to the daughter Of a neighbor. T>r.
Clay aaeerts that Dr. HUprest la de
lusloned about his find or that he has
not found any tablet at all. Prof, Mil

the fragment was written before the
rain of ftim-Bln, or between 2137 and

arguments. The probable outcome or

'CHARLIE. WHUFFO DAT
RAT ON YO' DRESSAH?'
Mrs. Fannell Says Kinky Hair
Isn't Hers—Sues
A pillow slip half filled with black,
kinky hair and a smaller "rat" were
repudiated by Mrs. Hattie Fanneli In
j Judge Houser's court yesterday in her
divorce proceeding* against Charles F.
Fannell, a well-to-do colored rancher
living at Bell Station. The plaintiff
declared thai the "rats" belonged to
Annie lioyd, who she declared was
her husband's "affinity."
"Hones', Jcdge, Ah nevah seen dat
hah befo'i" she declared to the "cote"
with a toss of her heat. "Ah idun' dat
stuff on mah husbafi's dressali an' it
suttainly doan belon' la me."
She shook her linger at her husband,
who quailed behind his lawyer from
i her threatening uspeet, and then guf
fawed nervously.
He was railed to the stand and asked
to identify the "wool."
"Yas, sab, Jedge, thet suttainly am
ah chunk of mah wife's hah," lie de
clared, pulling a big chunk of the pil
low covering and turning it around
gingerly. "Befo' the bawd, ledge, thah
is another piece of huh hah," he de
clared, an he pulled out whole wads
of "rats" and then threw tho "sack
full " on tho floor in scorn.
Fanneli declared his wife's suspicions
were absolutely unfounded and that
she was a "hyfalootin and cantanker
ous female." His attorney asked her
übout presenting a Winchester rii'lo at
her husband's head on the day in ques
tion.
"Vas, sail," she flared, "Ah had ah
rifle which was a sixteen shooter, and
Ah would have sure got him an' thet
woman, of he hadn' taken dat gun
frum mali ban's,"
Judge Houser took the case under
advisement.

Hallle Ermine Hives lias just been
received In special audience by the
dowager ('/.arlna. The husband of the
author of "Hearts Courageous" and
other novels is George Post Wheeler of
New York, at present secretary of the
American embassy at Ht. Petersburg.
It was easy on account of this posi
tion for him to procure for his wife
tlie enjoyment of such an honor, but
it is due altogether to the fait that
the empress likes to while away an
afternoon in a hammock, if it ever
becomes -warm enough In St. Peters
burg for hammocks, with one of .Mrs.
Wheeler's books, that she received her
much earlier than it in the custom to
receive women WhOM husbands hold
similar diplomatic positions. The em
press lias h strong appreciation of tho
literary achievements of Mr*. Wheeler.
Although court etiquette would not
allow Mrs. Wheeler to say one word
about her half hour's talk with th«
empress, she lei the secret out tha>
the empress Is a very charming wo
man. is very handsome and looks so
young that nobody would take her tor
Hi' czar's mother, She incidentally
handed out a little advance notice
about a novel which she is going to
let the American people see Just M
soon as she lit! down and writes it.
It Is to deal with the cheerful tide of
Russian life, Mrs. Wheeler thinks that
enough has been written concerning
the- gloomy side. She is going to reel
off a nice Jittle yarn about Russia's
aristocratic women. Her sister, Amelia
Rives, well known as the author of
"The Quick and the Dead," by the way,
married a Russian fourteen years ago—
Prince Albert Troubetskoy.
It Is understood from members of
the family of Count Slgray, who mar
ried Harriet Paly, daughter of the lute
.Minus Daly, that the bride's dowry
was $6,000,000. This In itself is not
■tartllnSi but when it Is given out that
only $600,000 of this will be at the im- j
mediate disposal of the count for the j
settlement of hia debts, a shudder
passes over the continent. Persons
who have at heart the success of our
American collection of counts are ex-
Iniru iy worried over the effect of this
n-ai-stinginess upon other titled in
dividuals who are looking America
ward fur wives and pocket money. Such
persons regard it us very high lolly
that $5,400,000 of the dowry (s to be j
placed as an Investment, upon the In- j
tereat of which the young couple are
to live. It Is feared that the count Will
have to be so close In hi.s expenditures,
having to economize on laundry bills
and deny himself frequent hair cuts,
that his brotlier counts will give Amer
ica the frigid shoulder and look else
where for nestmates.

hours. Well, when Mr. Regan went
back to New York lie came through
with one grand crltlciam of all hotels
in the western world and had it pub
lished in one of the New York hotel

way of the houses themselves In South

it to -th" management.
Now George ('. Bott, a globe trotter
from Tacoma, Wash., who Is at the
Alexandria for a .short time, happened
to read Mr.. Regan's choice remark.:
about taverns in this end of the coun
try and he Immediately exploded. And
by the way, Mr. Bott knows .lust what
he is talking about. He has been to
Europe only twenty-one times, In
every village and hamlet of the United
States and IB lust now finishing a tour
of this country In which he traveled
800,000 miles. So you Bee he has seen
some hotel?. , . I
■ In the lobby of the Alexandria Mr.
Bolt said yesterday: „
"So Regan knocked this, did he, he
began waiving his arm to take In the
handsome lobby of the Alexandria.
Well he don't know what he's talking
about ' There's not a better hotel in
the United States than this. i know,
because I've tried them all.
"He handed something to the man
agement, did be. Well. I can tell him
this Sam Whitmore, or Johnny
Mitchell- or Harry Frymnrf or Charlie
I.oomls- or any of the rest of the 10-al
boys- can give him cards and spades
in the hotel management game any
time That's no josh, I mean It. Ive
stopped in houses run by Regan and
I've stopped in houses run by these
fellow* and I know what I'm talking
'' "The great trouble " with Regan Is
that he didn't stop in one house long
enough to find out how they run then
He was in too big a rush to get back
to New York. if he had stayed a
week Instead of an hour, or a. month
Instead of a day he might have dis
covered something to write about But
take it from me if he had stayed,
longer, what he would have written
would have been far different from
what he did write."
Mr. Bott. accompanied by his wife.
will leave In a few days for the Grand
canyon, this being about the only «pot
under the Stars and Stripes that he
has no visited. He will then return
to Tacoma after a trip covering over
800,000 miles of territory and requiring
about six years' time to complete.
Mr. Bott is a strong believer in Bee
ing one's own country, first and seeing
fhe other fellow's country second, and
sa V9 that,the next time he goes to
Europe no blooming Englishman or
Dutchman or Frenchman can tell him
anything about the United States that
he has not seen himself.
Another guest at* the Alexandria of
note Is John .1. Herman, late chief
clerk of the Palace hotel In San Fran
cisco, who is here on his way to Den
ver where be will take charge of the
office forces of the Brown Palace
hotel. ... I

FerrlH went to San Francisco tail
evening to make arrangement* with
the Southern PacUlc officials for the
chartering of a number of Pu man
sleepers of which the special will be
made up, « he is successful, offices
will be opened here where prospective
travelers can secure reservations and
the necessary information in regard to
the trip. The guests will be taken
north on the train, and accommoda
tions soured for them at the St.
Francis, the charge for the trip in
cluding everything. Thus far it looks
as if the St. Francis special will prove
very attractive to local sports who
wish to see the bis mill.
There was a small excursion ot
northern California farmers fromi th
Sacramento valley in town the other
day, and one of them had an adventure
which he won't forget for some time
This old chap was a real farmer and
he knew little of city ways. He was
■topping at the Westminister and
when his party was not out Impact
ing land he 'did not seem to know what
to do with himself. He would wander
around the lobby like a lost soul, or
Stand and gaze for hours at the busy
street outside, seemingly wishing he
could get out Into it. if he only dared.
Finally, stepping up to the desk, the
old man, picked up a Balloon Rout
folder and looked it over. He was in
terested at once. *fe saw the picture
of the big balloon on th* front Of the
literature and could not get his eyes
off It. He turned it over. One hun
dred miles for one hundred cents It
read The old man made a sudden
decision. Stepping over to where the
bellboys were sitting, he asked one of
them' ,
"Where, do you take the balloon!
The bell hop, thinking he was jok
ing, replied:,
> "On the roof." \ ■
"Show in.- the way up there, said
the old man.
Now a bellboy is only human, and
this one could not resist.
•■This way, sir," he said, starting for
the elevator. I
Up tivy went, up as far as the ele- I
vator v>nt. Then they got off and
climbed. as though this hotel should i
•■Seems as though this hotel should
have a better method than this of get- ;
ting up to the balloon station," re- j
marked the old gentleman. |
"Well, we don't have many people
In this house who go on the balloons,"
replied the "front." "If we did the
starting station would be fixed up bet
ter."
Finally they arrived at the top.
"Hero in this little tower is where
you wait. When you Bee the balloon
coming, just signal and they will stop
and pick you up."
The bellboy heat it back down stairs.
studying whether he had better hand
in his resignation at once or wait until
the ax fell. He decided on the lat
ter.
And he didn't have very long to wait.
In about an hour a man stepped out
of the elevator, so blamed hot that he
smoked. The bellboy saw him coming
and ducked. He fumed up to the desk.
•■Why In blazes don't that balloon
come along?" he shouted. "I have been
up there waiting in the hot sun all
morning and there hasn't even been
a speck in the sky. let alone a balloon.
What's the matter? Where's that
young coyote who took me up there?
He said that balloon would be hero
in a few minutes."
The clerk, glancing at the folder
Which the irate man still held in his
hand, was wise to what had happened.
He gently informed the farmer that the
"Balloon Route" was not up in the
air but on the electric lines.
Then there was something doing.
Suffice to say that despito all plead-
ings there Is a vacant space in the
Westminster's bellboy bench.

Alameda Is a suburb of San Fran
cisco. It la sometimes called tha "jump-
Ing off" place and occasionally it. is
termed something thai would no look
well in cold type. Will McStay, a late
j arrival from the little town beside the
bay, told this one yesterday In tin-
Alexandria bar Illustrating the lack
of speed that obtains in- tlio suburb:
"Why," said MeStay, "a man and his
wife were standing qn the street cor i
nor In Alameda and a snail passed by.
'Great heavens!' s^ild the man In alarm,
'look at the runaway.' "

| The man at the end of the bar in tin:

friend further along toward the door,

him. Finally the fir I speaker raised
his voice attain and said:
"Didn't you hear what I said?"
"Yes, r did hoar it, but I did not
i quite understand."
"Well, you ought to understand ,it;
It was English, What language do

It ts an indication of the spirit of
the times that more champagne Is sold
at the hotels and beaches this year
than last year though the price has
been raised by the tariff to the very
substantial figure of $5 a bottle. It
would seem to be time for the native
champagnes to build up their trade,
for if the tariff does not protect them
at the present price, there Is nothing
