A VUIo la llnnbtr Tha Wu Tars. el Into a, Hcalltr. Stuart Robson used to tell a strange story of Laura Keene, with whom he played in the sixties in the last centu ry. "The sight of a bottle of red ink was enough to upset her for a week." be said. . On one occasion we were playing a farce called 'The Lady and the Devil.' An important scene of it was when she was sitting at a table preparatory to writing a letter. I, as her' servant, stood at the back of a chair. Take your right hand off that chair,' she whispered. The stage dla logue proceeded. 'You are sure yon can find Don Rafael at his lodgings? 'Yes, madam; his servant tells me his wounds will confine him to his bed for a week.' 'Is this the only paper that we have? Where is the ink? 'Here, madam.' And I bent forward to place the Ink within her reach, when, in my confusion at her reproof, the vessel was upset and its contents trickled on to the lap of her satin dress. The ink was blood red. I shall never for get the ghastly look that overspread her face, and I was so frightened that I never knew how the scene ended. "The next morning at rehearsal sfte told me I was doomed to ill luck for the remainder of my days. She called the company together and gave them a de tailed description of the 'awful scene the night before occasioned by the young man who would never make an actor. She told of a terrible dream she had had In which some great person had been foully murdered before her eyes; how she had attempted rescue without avail; how he had fallen dead at her feet, nd how his blood, slowly oozed Into her lap. It was two years after this that Miss Keene was play ing at Ford's theater, Washington, on the occasion when Abraham Lincoln was shot Miss Keene was the only person who seemed to realize the sit uation. She ran to the box, and in a moment .the head of the dying man was in her lap, while the scene of her dream was being pitifully enacted." Argonaut Ta Maria .Smartae la Alive.
