This was at Dallas, on March 20. when people for hundreds of miles near by crowded into the tent to see Bernhardt exhibited like a circus per- former.

The Bernhardt tent story is also 'at. tributed to him. The Mary was that Bernhardt could not got bookings in Tex- as theatres and that her manager would tsxrilrit her in I tent. For Bernhardths New York engage- ment Press Agent No. 3 employed 150 men to stan in line all day before the sale opened. presumably to buy tirkots. This line of ticket purchasers was duly photographed to show the interest, in Bernhardt. This stimulated the legiti- mtge purchasers. Another yarn he supplied dealt with the French Ambassador at Washington, who was represented as protesting to this Government againt the alleged dis. crimination against Bernhardt by the theatrical trust. This story, which at- taned wide publicity, bought about his resignation. as Mme. Bernhardt objected to usng her Ambassador as a medum of advertising. Press Agent No. 1 found the Bernhardt game too arduous, however, and at his own request was transferred to another company. Press Agent No. 2 was in Can- ada when a couple of rotten eggs were thrown by some drunken students at Mme. Ilernhardt's carriage in Quebec.
