The New York Clipper (March 1907)

08 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. March 16. M55 CIipper'5 Anecdotes. Personalities and Comments, CONCERNING STAGE FOLK and Some times OTHERS BT JOSKI'IIINE QRO. 'Trout 1" was the call that Prank \V. Winch used to jump to, a* bell boy, not eu many years ago—elgbt, to be exact Now lic'a oat "front," as manager, watching the good business at tbe local box offices tbat [lowland & Clifford's big attraction, "Thorns and Orange Blossoms," Is doing. Tbe natural quickness he displayed In bis "bell boy" days, together with tho possession of a higher order of brain power, soon gradu- ated him from hotel service to the pad-and- pencil ranks of the newspapers. In Manila, Japan and Russia this Intrepid youngster (he's only twenty-Are now) gathered news as war correspondent. "Tbat San Francisco Boy," as he Is familiarly known on bis home coast and elsewhere, has also the reputation of an adept In tbe study of criminology, hav- ing often cleverly aided tbe police In their own Held. Success In plsy writing, too, has winch achieved to a popular degree. Ills first breaking Into print was at the time of Barney Oldfleld's record breaking ride, In San Francisco, when be accompanied tbe renowned autolst on that terrible whirl of speed. ' Once a newspaper man, always a news- paper man, In so far as quickly to seize all opportunities toward tbe attainment of an end. One of Winch's objects at present Is to make as much money as possible out of "Thorns and Orange Blossoms," and In this he exerts bis newspaper acumen. He raked In a few extra dollars, not very long ago, In a Michigan town, where, at a late hour In the afternoon, It looked as though business was not going to be at all good. There was a rival attraction In the place, and one that was going to be hard to pull against, particularly as to low price and multiplicity of people, for tbe other wis a vnudevllle show, combined with many at- tractions, under canvas. Something bad to be done, and that quick- ly, to offset the opposition. Winch sauntered into the newspaper office, and being at home l1owl » on his knees and proposed marriage, In the realm of printers' Ink, got immediately Julla ' B sense of humor got the better of her, Into touch with the editor. The topic of the- and " he nearly broke up the scene by ex- of the delicious pastry she bad prepared with her own hands. A general expression of disappointment pervaded the faces of those present, a mo- ment later, and on tasting the pie herself. Miss Humphrey quickly became aware tbat something wss dlrefully wrong. Calling a bait, she proceeded to make an Investigation, which finally resulted In finding tbat she had used "plaster of Paris" In her cream pie. Instead of cornstarch. 9 Fred Klblo Jr., tbe live year old son of Josephine Cohan and Fred Nlblo, who are all about to depart for Europe, recently put to tbe blush a very good friend of tbe family, an actor, who had been temporarily em- barrassed as to finances. This gentleman was taking a walk with Nlblos, 8r. and Jr. On passing a pawn- shop on Sixth Avenue, he suddenly stopped, and, excusing himself to Mr. Nlblo, said tbat he must go in and get bla watch from bis "uncle." Nothing more was said upon tbe subject until a week later, when Fred Jr. and his mother happened to pass the same pawn- shop. Tbe youngster stopped abruptly In front of the place, and, pointing to the algn above tbe door, Informed bis mother In a shrill voice: "There's where Mr. Blank's uncle lives." "How do you know, dear?" asked his mother. "He told papa he bad to go In there to get his watch from his uncle," replied tbe youngster, disclosing an humiliating fact tbat the friend of the family would much prefer to have kept from the feminine portion. 9 Julia Sanderson, formerly a Shubert star, and now adding new successes to ber list In vaudeville, unblushlngly confesses to the most unusual proceeding of marrying her own father. Tbe simple statement Is a shocking one, but when augmented by ex- planation, It Is only amusing. As a girl of fifteen she was playing a small part and acting as understudy In tbe company In which ber father was plsylng the "father" In tbe piece. On the Illness of the actress who was playing the part of the heroine, who marries him In the third act, Julio went on In her place. In the aecond act, where her father went WA8HINGTOX.

"There's not so much of it as one might suppose," declared be, "and in proof will inform you, for publication if you desire, that I've just been over to Invite the mana- ger and company of the vaudeville attraction to come over and see our play this evening." Winch mentally added a prayer for forgive- ness for the fiction, though he considered everything as fair In business, as "in love and war." "It that's the case," said the editor, pick- ing up from his desk the announcement sent In by the vaudeville manager, to tbe effect that the show tbat night was to contain special features, "then It won't be necessary to run this." Instead, the evening paper contained a pleasant editorial on the friendliness between theatrical managers, with the announcement that the vaudeville company, attended by Its manager, would be Winch's guests of honor, occupying boxes at the theatre playing 'Thorns and Orange Blossoms." It did not take long after tbe Issue of the anper for an angry manager to hunt up another young manager, who was guessing a little bit how bis coup was coming out. A few quick words on one side, met with a few conciliating ones from Winch, who also milled tbe other In a friendly way, soon re- sulted In peace. Winch then proffered the Invitation, which wos accepted In good spirit. The boxes were filled with tbe members of the rival attraction, and, by Winch's clever forethought, there wns no splitting of the- atrical profit In that town that night. 9 If things look as though they were not steered In hla direction, Wincb Is not slow In Mb tnctlcs to make them change their course. Hero's a blc of his philosophical verse: "I bate tho fellow who sticks around And knocks the livelong day— Who brags of the work he might have done, If things had come his way. "Hut I love the man who pushes ahead, And smiles a t his work or play. You can gamble when things do come around, They'll come Mb way—and stay." t The housekeeping, homey sort of life Is bo Infrequently Indulged In by the average nctress, that whon she gets a chance to mesB « bit In the kitchen, she often avails herself of It. Shortly before the Australian tour of Ola Humphrey, she occupied tho furnished apart- ment of a professional friend, residing In New York City. Ola dearly loves to try her hand at cooking, and particularly to make pics. I.Ike the old lady In tho atory, who made "pics an' things," this clever young actress, In her culinary attempt, made some "plzen things," with the Intention of treat- ing some friends thereto. A cream pie wos the object of her cooking endeavor, and, as all cooks know, corn- starch Is the thickening Ingredient. In the cupboard of her friend's house Miss Humph- rcy spied a glass Jnr, which she felt sure contained tbe desired cornstarch. She mixed with water the amount prescribed by the cook book, and stirred It Into tbe cream pie mixture, which subsequently went Into the oven to boko. At the luncheon, an hour later, the piece ri*e resistance was brought on and served by the hostess, who bad been .telling her guests claiming "Oh 1 father, this Is so sudden.
