As X grated at the motley group in the top gallery, clingtor all ing to poles and railing, and looking the world like an Immense swarm of bees, I was reminded of an incident of my college days.. I belonged to an eating club known as the "Gamble Club." When my mother heard of this she grew pale, saw visions of the King of Diamonds and the Ace of Spades, to say nothing of whole bushels of dice and poker chips which arose before her vision A nd she promptly sat down and wrote me a long letter.

The selection is, to my notion, a very wise one. j Since the night I first saw him, Louis James has always been a very favorite of mine. He was then great supporting Lawrence Barett In "Francesca De Rimini," playing the part of the Jester. I have always looked upon that as one ot bis greatest creations. In ray humble opinion Mr. Jsmes is the only actor on tbe American stage who Is at aU capable of filling the place made vacant by the sad death ot Florence. lathe death of W. J. Florence, the American stage loses one of the brightest lights a J that adorned it. He was in his sixtieth when lie died. His parents were of rear birth ; he was bom William Conlln, but In his early stage career he adopted the stage name of William Jermyn Florence, When be had acquired fame under this name he assumed It as his legal name aea had. It legalised by legislature. His first appearance on the stage as a professional occurred la Richmond, Va.. when he was eighteen years old, though he bad appeared! In various amateur performances prior to. that time. From 1858 until the time of his death bis life was one of great activity. He appeared continuously In America and England, and produced many great sucoeses. As the years grew on his artlstlo trluucba became numerous.

And does my reader ask why we chose the topmost round of tbe Jadder? Tbe answer is easy. Nearly every "Gambler" was at school as a result of his own labors and to the top gallery. savings.
