Sam Mylie, a comedian playing at the Academy, with the Oscar F. Cook stock company, was startled at being handed an envelope by the clerk of the hotel at which he is stopping and, after the manner of his cult turned it over two or three times before open- it. The address was typewritten, but the postmark was Saginaw, and to the anxious actor it brought suspicions of the regulation two weeks’ notice. Mylie was anxious and had gone on for the matinee of the afternoon with his mind filled with serious thoughts while he turned himself into a laugh¬ ter mill for the audience. Opening the envelope he found a message: “Dear Papa—Please take me to the ball game. Sam Mylie, Junior.” The Junior had arrived at the Woman’s hospital while the play was in prog¬ ress and tips the beam at 13 pounds. He and his ma are doing well, and meantime every woman of the com¬ pany is hard at work with needle and crochet hook manufacturing a suit¬ able wardrobe for the new member. —TRAVERS.

Next to the fabulous sums of mon¬ ey which have been made in the film field since the invention of mov¬ ing pictures, the minute photographic machine for street and studio use promises to eclipse all other money¬ making novelties of its kind. There are two styles of this camera; one is known as the Sleeve Machine, and the other as the Cannon Photo Machine, by reason of its resemblance to a cannon. It is possible with one of these ma¬ chines to take a person’s photograph and deliver it, finished, inside of one minute. The maahine itself is suffi¬ ciently light to be quite portable 'and it is known that hundreds of men are touring the country from the profits made with these machines. Travel¬ ing amusement men not only take photos of individuals, but of houses, carriages, pet stock and the like. A great advantage is that no experience is necessary to operate the machine. The American Minute Photograph Company, a Chicago concern, Haims that this is the greatest novelty of its kind in the past dozen years.
