REVIEW OF THE WEEK.

THE EVENTS OF THE WEEK.-The past
week has been barren of events worthy of
chronicling. The weather has been steadily
warm, though not oppressively So The
great desideratum has been rain, th9S alb
sence of which has caused great inconveni
ence to families The whole of May, and
thus far in June, much less than average has
fallen, and, as we write, there are few indi-
cations of change so ardently wished for.
In business there is general stagnation,
and the relief and activity which was hoped
would follow the acquittal of the President
has not been realized. The streets in many
locations are in shocking condition, the
cutters seething with accumulations, that,
as they receive the concentrated rays of the
sun, exhale yapors destructive to comfort
and health.
SENTENCED Howe, on Monday,
sentenced John d. Fitzpatrick and James
Cunningham-to two months imprisonment
for the former and one month to the latter,
in the parish prison, for kidnapping Jacob
Barker, as a means of recovering money de-
posted in his bank.
The WATER w ORKS.-Ihe commissioners
appointed on behalf of the city to appraise
the water works had a meeting on Thursday
last. We have not learded what immediate
steps were taken toward accomplishing the
object of their appointment.
THE ELEvAroR.-We are glad to notice
| that the wharf of the Elevator Company is
rapidly being completed. 1t will afford all
the scope which that grand enterprise de-
mands. The elevator itself, we understand,
! is to be commenced this week.
CITY CoUNcIL.-Nothing of importance
was done by this body at its meeting on
Tuesday night. Messrs. Kearny and Devices
were chosen directors to represent the city
in the Commercial Water Works.

SUMMER DRESS GOODS, PARAsoLs, ETC.-The
long experience of Messrs. Braselman s. Co.
have enabled them to suit their customers with
the choicest fabrics and articles entering into
general household needs-but better still, as
cnterprising business men, they know when and
how to meet the exigencies of the times by low
ering the price of their goods to conform to the
terrible period in which we live, move, and have
our being. A glance at their advertisement
elsewhere will inform the reader of these
miraculously low figures-and when to this lis
added a glance at their varied and extensive
stock, and a sight of the crowds who have the
good sense and Judgment to avail themselves
of the facts here set FORTH iudieious people will
know what course to take-the track leading
to Nos $50 and 5as Magazine street, corner
st. Andrew.

PRoTEsTANTs VERSUS RITuAL1sTs.-A
writer in the New York CHurchman thus
speaks of Ritualists:
l will venture to say that the one Church
of ST. Adams, in New York city, makes
directly more Roman Catholic converts
from Protestant families than any five Ro-
man Catholic churches or educational insti
tutions in our land. Now, this is my
assertion, made from the standpoint of Il
Western layman, who keeps his eyes. open
and watches the signs of the times, and, of
course, need have no influence with Rev.
Mr.. Noyes, Stubs, Boggs, or Right Rev.

ELECTION OF A PATRON SAINT. "A cor
respondent of the Tribune says that an
election of the most extraordinary kind
has been held in Valparaiso. The &C.
clesiastical authorities of the city had
called together the people for the pur-
pose of choosing out of the list of saints
one as patron saint aud protector for
that city. The election was exciting in
the extreme, many hundred saints hav-
ing been nominated but Jesus Christ
having obtained brilliant majority,
having polled 1896 " the most holy
Virgin" following with 4,132; sundry
odd saints putting in disgraeeful
poor show, among the whole of 3S4.
The election Was closed on Sept. 9th,
the result being declared on Sunday,
when a sermon was preached by Senior
Casanvo. and q solemn lie Deum sung
to celebrate the joyful event.

MYSTERIES. The world is full of mys-
teries the chamber in which the in
FAINT opens its eyes is a universe of mys-
teries. The fathers voice the mothers
smile, reveal to it slowly the mysterious
world of the affections. The child solves
many of these mysteries but as the
circle of knowledge is enlarged, its vi
sion is always bound by veil of mys-
terry. The sun that wakens it at morn
ing, and again at night looks in at its
window, to bid it farewell, the tree that
shades its home, andin whose branches
the birds sing before the dews are dry,
the clouds move across the sky, calm
and stately, like the chariot of an an
gel-an are mysteries. Nay, to the
grown up man there is not O thing
which the hand touches, or on which
the eye rests, which is not enveloped in
mystery. The flower that springs at
your feet-who has revealed the won
derful secret of it's organization ? Its
roots shoot down, and leaf and flower
rise up and expand into the infinite
abyss of mystery. We are like imi-
grants, travelling through an unknown
wilderness they stay at night by flow
ing stream they feed their horses, set
up their tent, and build fire; and as
the flames rise up, all within circle of
a few rods around is distinct and clear
in its light. But beyond and bounding
this, are rocks dimly seen, and trees
with vague outline stoop forward to the
blaze and beyond the branches creak,
and the waters murmur over their bed
and wild, unknown animals howl in the
dark realms of night and silence. Such
is the light of mans knowledge, and SO
it is bounded by the, infinite realms of
mystery. Masonic Eclectic.

MILITARY REFORM Another effort
will be made at the coming session Of
the Legislature to get some system of
organization and government of the

iments an opportunity to compete III

THE ELDER BOOTH.

The elder Booth-thc father of the
distinguished tragedian now so popu-
lar in ali American theatres had Il
certain strangeness of character which
Disseminated him from all other actors
and almost lifted him out of the opera
ton of the conventional rules which
properly regulate ordinary life. More
than any other English performer of
whom We possess an authentic record,
he was Of imagination all compact. "
His read existence was passed in an
ideal region of thought, character and
passion; and however feeble he may
have been, considered simply as Mr.
Booth, there could be no question of
his greatness, considered as Hamlet,
Othello, Macbeth or Lear. To the stu
dent # Shak espeare his acting was the
most suggestive of all interpretative
criticism of the poet by whose genius
he had been magnetized. Through his
imagination he instinctively OWNED
that Shakespeare's world represented
the possibilities of life rather than its
actualities into this ideal of exist
ence his mind as instinctively
mounted and the essential poetic ele-
ment in Shakespeare's characters was
therefore never absent from his person.
ations. By his imagination, also, he
passed into the spiritual depths of a
complex Shakespearean cretion grasp
ed the unity which harmonized all the
varieties of its manifestations realized,
indeed, the imagined individual SO
completely that his own individuality
seemed to melt into and be absorbed
Other tragedians appeared, in compar-
ison with him, to deduce the character
from the text, and then to act the de-
duction his hold was ever on the vital
fact, and he thus conceived what others
inferred, reproduced what others de-
duced, ensouled and embodied what
others merely played. Shakespeare's
words, too, were SO domesticated in his
mind, SO associated with the character
they expressed, that in uttering them
he did not seem to remember, but to
originate. All the peculiarities of a
man who speaks under the pressure of
imprisoned imagination were visible
in his acting. The rapid and varied
gesture, indicating or shaping each one
of the throng of the contending images
rushing in upon his mind the CLEAN
and glow of eye and cheek, as words
struggled impatiently for utterance in
his throat, limiting the physical impo-
tence of the organ to keep UP with the
swift pace of the SOULS passion these
and scores of other things lying be-
tween what may be perfectly expressed
and what is in itself inexpressible,
created positive illusion insthe audi
ence. Perhaps this illusion was most
complete in those passages which peo-
pie are commonly educated to treat as
general reflections, entirely indepen-
dent of the characters by whom they
are uttered. Booth always gave these
as individual experiences, flashing out,
in the most natural way, from the mind
of the characters in the very positions
in which they are placed Atlantic
