tating, and playing all Sorts of musi-
cal instruments.
Having saved a little money he lett
home determined to make a music
hall career for himself, though his
parents told him that he would be
home in 31 month without a penny i
his pocket. He got his first engaso
anent at Spokane Falls at a fee of $10
a week, but not at a music ball. La -
layette's part in the programme was
to make caricatures of American cele-
brities and bang a big dram svhi'e
teeth were extracted. His salary wan
soon raised, but he left that business
and, became an actor in a regular
theatre.
In New Orleans he saved $5,0011, and
this was the starting point of his
brilliant' career., Chicago was the first
big city he took by storm, New York
,followed, and when there, six yearn
ago, he was being paid $20,000 for a
twenty-three weeks' engagement.
Lafayette's first appearance in Lon-
don was at the Hippedrome- under
Air. Stoll's management, in 1900. His
turn, which lasted over an hour, 00n-
sisted 01 conjuring tricks, character-
istic, acting, conducting, - illusions,
impersonations, and wonderful scenic
effects,. an absolute unique act.
Wonderful Illusions •
Lafayette was a clever modeller of
clay, and this accomplishment, as well
as that of painting, entered into the
scheme of his great "entertainment
offering," as his "show" was billed in
the country of his birth. In the se-
cond part of bis programme we found
Elm at work on a model of "Leda artd
the Swan,' bringing thein Into shape
with extraordinary rapidity, but by the
actyal process of the snulptoa; and
then In some mysterious stw ret s f,

His 'mysteries," though I hey dealt
with the nlillcarance and 1110 chap-
pear'arice or 11 mall or a worries) under
amazing circumstances, were very
different to those of the ordinary
illusionist. They
were 0 e magnificently
spectacular, and often given in (Ira -
trestle the form. Itis last Itruelon for in-
stance, was a romance iu-Oriental set-
ting, g, wherein a noble young Persian
prince rescued. a raptive maid from a
lion's den, which she had preferred to
the harem of a terrible pasha.
etwas called "The Lion's Bride,"
and its mysteries and quick `changes
and perplexing aedgeries were pew
formed by Lafayette amid gorgeous
and most elaborate scenery, with
staves, soldiers, guards of the harem,
eufiuetts, and all the human par elter-
nalia of Oriental high officialism, fill-
ing the stage as in some play of tmpol-
f
fence.
Of late years -Lafayette added to his
knowledge of the technicalities Meiu-
ntrumentation, and succeeded in be-
coming a composer for both orchestral
and military bands of scores of no
mean order.
Belief In Advertising
lie was an extraordinary man for
detail, and when away from London
he would scud no fewer than from
twenty-five to thirty telegrarns a, day
to his agents. fie was extremely pnr-
ticniar about his contracts, and would
never attach his .name to a paper en -
ti. ire had carefully considered its
whole meaning and gone into esreey
phase of R.
One' of the great secrets of les site
cess was his belief in advertising,Ile
spent thousands of dollars yearly In
exploiting himself. and as one leondori
tlieatre manager said, "Some cif it:9
ideas were enough to scare tate ever -

Although not reckless with his
finances, he spent large sums 351110
