How It Happened.
The co-author of "The Old, Old
Story tells bow it received its name.
It appears, that on one occasion, as
they emerged from the theatre after
remaining until the early morning
hours, struggling to bring out the ad
mirable ending of the third act,when
the problem refused to be solved, each
with a roll of manuscript um'er his
arm, they encountered two well
known Thespians who were apparent
ly suffering from a slight attack of
ultra conviviality superinduced by
several bottles of champagne The
tired play writs regarded the artiti
cially joyful actors almost enviously
and as they passed they overhead one
of them say somewhat thickly to his
companion: 'I say old chap, (hie)
there you are, (hie) the old, old story,
(hie) two struggling arists trying to
name a play, (hie) I'll bet a bottle I'm
right."
The remark was one hardly calcu
lated to revive the slightly drooping
spirits of the playwrights, and as they
slowly crossed Madison Square, a pro
longed silence ensued, which was at
length suddenly broken by Bellows
exclaiming:
"What's the matter with 'The Old,
Old Story,' for a title? 1 think the
gentleman with the jag' hasgiven us
a good name for our play."
A few mouths later when the play
was completed, and the subject of the
title was being considered Bellow s
ag ain suggested "The Old, Old Story"
and it was adopted. The theatiical
pu blic as well as the hilarious Thes
pians have since learned that the
"two struggling artists" succeeded in
writing a successful play and one that
ranks high in the list of American
efforts.
