DELEGATES N \1IED TO
TAXATION CONFERENCE
AN ACTOR'S REAL TRAGEDY.
Pathos of John McCuilough's Last Ap-
pearance on Any Stage.
John McCullough. the tragedian, died
in an insane asylum. Writing about
the famous actor's last appearance on
any stage, E. 11. Sothern in his "Re
membrances" in Scribuer's says:
He went through a scone in "The
Gladiator;" then he went to the last
scene in "Virginias," where Vlrginius
raves after lie lias killed bis daughter:
then to Othello's farewell speech, one
lie had often told me that his great
master, Edwin Forrest, had only read

tent!
Farewell Hie plumed troop and the big
That make ambition virtue! Oh, farewell!
Furewell the neighing steed and the shrill
trump,
The spirit stirring drum, the ear piercing
life.
The royal banner, and all quality,
Pride, pomp und circumstance of glorious
war!
And, oh, you mortal engines, whoso rude
throats

terfeit.
Farewell! Othello's occupation's gone.
It was pitiful In the extreme to hear
McCullough rend this ut any time and
trebly so now. lie wandered through
others of his various characters, the
people about him weeping and seeking
to hide their grief. At length he drift

He played the scene iu the garden
where Haradas, the creature of the
king, comes to tuUe Richelieu's ward
away from him. He had spolieu the
tender speech of protection to Julie,

reverent ribald! If so, beware the fall

My name is Richelieu! I defy thee!

he falls fainting as the net ends.
Poor McCullough went up the stage
at "Well. Well, We will go home." BB
radus said his line, the tears streaming
down his face, "Ills mind and life are
breaking fast." McCullough threw Jo-
seph and Julie oft as he turned on Ba-
radas und began: "Irreverent ribald!
If so. beware the falling ruin," und
stopped dazed.
He looked at the weeping Raradas, at
Julie sobbing, at the rest of the com-
pany standing about overcome with
grief andjtorror, und collapsed utterly.

THE "NATIONAL FORESTS
Washington, Aug. 18.- Increasing ;
use of the national forests for mu-
nicipal camp sites and summer school
locations is reported by the Forest
Service. Permits have already been
issued to several cities and educa-
tional institutions and other applica-
tions are expected. Officials say that
far more people use the forests for
public playgrounds than for any
other purpose, and that this use
promises to be one of the most im-
portant to which they can be put.
The city of Fresno, Cal., has been
granted a permit for the use of a 15-

Tobacco Famines In Sieges.
The tobacco habit has added terribly
to the privations of many a siege in its
Just days, however much consolation it
may bring at earlier stages. "The
leaves ot' the trees were all smoked

of Lucknow. and even bark was smoked
there. In Ladysmith the men smoked
dried suntlower leaves and tea leaves
for many weeks before the relief.
