PRINOB HATZFELD I UNREFOSMED.
C. P. Huntington’s Son-In-Law as Great
a Gamest aa Ever.
Eugene Field in the Chicago Sews.
When Prince Hatzfeldt married C. P.
Huntington’s daughter there was a vast
amount of croaking Indulged, and we fancy
that the oronkers are prepared to hail with
delight any report that may be made of tbe
unhappiness of that match. Hatzfeldt has
not reformed; he continues to indulge his
passion for gambling, but be is more lucky
than he was before he caught the rich
American girl.
At a recent sitting he won the large sum
of (40,000, and his total winnings within
six month are said to put him about (75,000
ahead of the game. Hatzteldt is in many
partio Jars a typical German adventurer;
the recklessness aud stoicism of ths typical
German student seem to enter largely into
his co : position, yet withal there is a vein
of sentiment in his nature. Miss Hunting
ton was not bis first love.
HU first affair was with Emilio Loisset,
a Parisian circus rider, very pretty, very
bright, and exceedingly proper. Tttis girl’s
sister was happily wedded to the Prince de
Reuss. E nilie was tbe pet of that part of
the public that patronized tne circus; the
beau* courted her madly, hut she put them
off so cleverly that there was nevsr the
least breath of scandal. Hatzfeldt was mure
fortunate; ha did not woo in vain; the
charming circus rider accepted him, and a
day was set for the wedding.
Am nth, however, before the time ap
pointed for the wedding, tbe borso upon
which Etnilie was performing in the circus,
fe.l and crushed the girl so terribly that she
died within a week, after haviug borne
with wondrous fortitude the most ago iz
ing items. Hatzfeldt was awfully shocked.
The first thing he did was to buy the horse
that uad c luxed Emiiie’s death, and he shot
tbe poor brute over Emilie’g grave.
This was silly enough, but Hatzfeldt was
hardly more than a boy a the tjm '. And
he appears to be hardly less than a scape
grace now.
TIIE MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY, MARCH 8, 1891—TWELVE PAGES.
THINGS LEFT IN THE THEATER.
Queer Articles Found Among the
Beats After the Play.
From the Sew York Sun.
About 11 o’oiock on a bright morning, a
week nr more ago, a fashionably dressed
woman called at the box office of the Union
Square theater. She was young, and had
an abund&uce of golden-yellow hair knotted
in a coil behind her bead. She wore a
natty black cloth hat, and bad a boa of
glossy black feathers around her neck, con
cealing tbe collar of a handsome sealskin
cloak. She was accompanied by a colored
maid.
"Did you find a little pug dog in the
theater last night!” she asked the mas in
the office.
"A pug dog?” asked Treasurer John Cox
in affected surprise.
“Yes,” said tbe woman, her voice rising
to a trembling t.eble, "a tiny little dog. He
was oiily,.a few days old. My maid here left
him under the seat. Oh, did you find him,
sir?”
At this the colored maid approached the
window, and said that she Lad uuwi tlngly
left the d< g under the seat when she and
her mistress left tbe theater, and neither one
had discovered the loss till they reached
home. Ttien it was too late to hope to find
the theater still open.
" Yes,” put In the girl, "and I hardly slept
all ni. tit for thinking of poor little doggy.”
"But how did you happen to bring a dog
to the theater <” asked Treasurer Cox, frown
ing darkly. “Of course you know that dogs
are not allowed here.”
“O, but my little doggy was so little and
so young,” replied the young woman, “and
I couldn’t leave him at home all alone, you
know. Ho 1 told Dotty here to put him iu a
cigar box and bring him alo. g. And he
as asleep in the ootton, you know, and we
were both so pleased with the play,” you
know” (glancing appealingly at the treas
urer), “that we both forg t all about him.
Yon see, I thought she had him, but it
seems she had put tbe box under the seat
and forgot all about it. O, do toll me, did
you fl and him?”
The young woman gazed so earnestly Into
the treasurer’s face that he relented, and
asked what the dog’s name was.
"Gyppy,” she replied, drying a stray
tear with a tiny handkerchief. Treasurer
Cox then produced a cigar box from under
the desk, lifted the lid, and disclosed a tiny
dog curled up in a mass of ootton and sleep
ing peacefully. The youug woman seized
the box with a Joyful exclamation, and,
with profuse thanks to everybody in sight
that seemed to be connected with the thea
ter, tripped happily out, with the colored
maid following behind.
"Well,” said Mr. Cox, "with all my ex
perience, I never knew such a curious arti
cle left in the theater before. Women are
always leaving things behind them in their
chairs and boxes, but who would ever think
of their leaving dogs behind them? Now,
we don’t allow dogs in the theater, and she
had to smuggle that little fellow in. Why,
do you know, she had that cignr box
neatly tied up in brown paper, as if it were
some pai kuge she had got at the Btore, or
ha I forgotten to send by express.”
All the theaters have rooms in the cellars
where lost articles which are unclaimed
after a reasonable time are stored away.
Tbe general custom is to hold "fou. and
articles” in the box office for a week or more,
according to their value, and if then un
claimed to send them down to the cellar.
Here they accumulate sometimes for years.
They herd with the dust and theatrical
trappings and effects long since abandoned
and stored for possible, but not probable,
future use, till some of these cella - rooms
aro veritable curiosity shops. Littls of
real value is unclaimed, and these subter
ranean collsctio s are usually far more
curious than valuable.
“I have had people come back for their
hats,” said a theatrical man the other day.
"In warm weather even women occasion
ally walk out of the house in blissful for
getfulness of the fact that they have
removed their hats for greater com
fort and hung them on the back of
their chairs. Oversnoes, umbrellas, caues,
opera glasses, overcoats, olohks, wraps
furs, handkerchiefs—these are the articles
more commonly left behind. But purses
are frequently lost, and these little reticules
that women carry, often containing valu
able articles. Then ladies very frequenly
leave packages containing purchases benind
them, after the matinee. The come back
in great haste and often in great alarm. I
remember a lady coming rusniug into the
theater about 7 o’clock one evening and
sobbing out that she had lost a costly dia
mond necklace and must ltave dropped it
in the theater after the matinee. We sutn
mo .ed the entire staff of tha theater, even
to the sweeps and the gas lighters, but overy
man and woman of them swore that no
such thing had been found. We searched
the chair she had occupied and the aides in
vaiD. Then we gave it up. She started
away sobbing. After awhile she came
back and tola us the necklace was dona up
in a small package.
“ ‘O,’ said I, ‘why didn’t you say so in the
first place f We supposed it was on your
neck.
“ ‘Why, I didn’t tnink to tell you that.’
“So we brought out several packages that
had been found, and she selected one that
looked like her package. Before ope ting it
she described the necklace accurately. Then
I opened the package, and there was tbe
necklace, mdeed a costly thing of the most
superb workmanship. She said she had
bought it for a wedding present and handed
me a card containing the name of a very
well known woman.
“A man once came back after a perform
ance and said, with a white face, that he
had loft (700 in the theater. We went to
his seat Hud found the roll of hills caught in
the joint. The sweepers bad overlooked it
But people do not often get back
money or pocketbooks. You can’t
control the honesty of the theater em
ployes, you know. We have the most
stringent rules governing the matter. An
employe is instantly dismissed If he fails to
return a found article, and, if it is of any
val e, and he is caught retaining it, the
theater becomes the prosecutor andseea that
he catches all the penalty the law will
enforce.
“People in the audience, I believe, in
many cases steal lost articles. I have ob
served audiences leaving the theater many
times, and have good reason for saying so.
It is very easy, in passing down an aisle
with a crowd to place a hand on the head
of an umbrella or cane standing up against
a chair where somebody has left it, or upon
a wrap carelessly left over the back of a
chair. You will seldom see a thief pick
anything up which has fallen to tee floor,
howoer, for the act of sloopiug down at
tracts attention. So it is that money and
small articles dropped on the floor are seldom
stolen by thieves in the audience, though I
have known thieves to drop an umbrella or
hat in order to make an excuse for stooping
down. If you see any o. e stoop down and
openly pick a lost bill or article from the
floor, you can nearly always take it for
granted that tbe Under is an honest man
and means to leave it at the box office.
“Once, however, I saw an honest man
overcome by temptation and yield while on
his way out of the theater. It was an in
teresting study in humau nature. I was
standing where I could see all the changing
emotions in his face, and the fact his face
win so easily re id convinces me that he was
honest nt heart. He was a young man,
neatly but cheaply dressed. I had casuady
observed him during the play, because he
seemed to enjoy it so hugely. He was
evide.tly treating himself to an unusual
enjoyment. Passing out of the
theat r with tbe crowd, he suddenly stooped
down and scooped up something from the
floor. He examined it openly and curiously,
ami I notioed it was a roll of bills. He
called the attention of a man near him to
the find, and they exchanged words smil
ingly. They were evidently strangers. It
took sometime to pass down the aisle,during
which time i:e wa * tempted, struggled, and
yielded. His face expressed only amuse
meat and curiosity at first. Then he opened
the roll and counted tne bills. He puckered
his l.ps into a silent whistle. Suddenly a
furtive exp esdou crossed his face, the bills
dropped out of sight, his lips closed, and he
glanced quickly around him. No one was
noticing him. Then he put one hand to hie
forehead, and alowiy shook his head. Then
hie face cleared; but immediately after
ward the furtive look came back
and be bit bis lip again and again glanced
round. Finally, after several such changes
of contenance, be dropped his eyea to tbe
floor and pushed forward Dervously and
quickly. I followed him into the foyer. He
dropped to one side behind a curtain till all
near him, wi en Ae found tbe money, bad
passed our. Then he pulled his bat over bis
eyes and walked rapidly out. At tbe door
I laid my hand firmly on his arm. He
started and turned pale.
“ ‘That money you found, and—atole,’
said I in a low tone.
"He banded it to me instantly, drorped
his face in his hands, and broke into sobs.
“ * I—l—never stole i efore,’ he gasped.
“*1 know it,’ said I, ‘and thatl is why I
don’t arrest you know. lam a detective.’
‘ *1 let go of hia arm and he darted off on a
run. The roll contained (400.”

Some people think because they have been able
to get hold of a few thousand dollars that they
are printers. It is a Mistake. It takes years of
work to become a good printer, and besides you
must be built that way. A man who is not a prac
tical printer buys just such stuff as bas been out
of date twenty-five years, simply beoause It Is in
a catalogue or is sold by a drummer. We have
over $25,000 invested. It has been made work
ing at printing, and not In Selling bottles.
