Madame DorVal.

A Paris correspondent of the Boston
Journal writes The revival of that
exciting and marvellous drama, "Marie-
Jeanne" at the Lyric Dramatic Thea
tre, recalls to the theatrical critics a
host of souvenirs of the great DOrval,
who created the role of Marie-Jeanne,
the women OF the people. The piece
was first represented on the stage OF
the Port Saint Martin Theatre in 1916.
The chief character is that of a mother
who loses her child, and the intensity
and terrible fervOr bestowed upon her
part by Madame Dorval won the high
est encomiums ever accorded modern
French actress. Dumas the elder,
who was present at he first perfor-
nance, has somewhere recounted his
impressions of the memorable Occa-
sion. After Dorval, in one of the most
exciting scenes, had moved the whole
audience to frantic sobs and tears, the
impressible Dumas could no longer
contain his emotion. He went behind
the scenes, and there found Dorval,
fainting and half dead from excitement
and effort. "Do you hear" he said to
her, how violently they are applaud
ing you ?" Eyes, l hear" she an
swered, careless!y. "Well, never, on
my life, heard any woman so applauded
before" Certainly not" rejOined
Dorvsl "other women give an au-
dience their talent give it my life. "
It was true; and it was not little sim
gular that this great actress should die,
four years later, broken-hearted before
the empty cradle of her only child.
The woman had matchless talents.
Theophile Gautier said of her that she
"united in one poor woman of the peo.
pie the biblical Rachel, who would not
be consoled; Niobe. whose marble
eyes are always moist; and Hecaba,
who was noisy with sorrow" Fred
erick Lemaitle, who was behind the
scenes on one occasion when Dorval
played Marie-J Jeanne, was so overcome
that he could say nothing, but wept
silently when the actress left the scene
and came to him, hoping for a word of
approval from an artist even greater
than herself.

out as happy as possible, and from that
moment recovered his usual spirits.
"There appears, in this instance, to
have been a clear process of reasoning,
accompanied with acute feeling, going
on in the dogs mind from the moment
he bit me until he hit upon a plan of
showing his regret and making repara-
tion for his fault. 1t evidently occurred
to him that I attached great Importance
to this foot bath, as if he could convince
me that his contritiOn was sincere, and
that he was willing to submit to the
process without murmur, should be
satisfied. The dog, in this case, rea-
soned with perfect accuracy, and from
his own premises deduced a legitimate
conclusion with the result justified. -

TOURISTS who have been to Yosemite
valley this season complain bitterly
about the poor accommodations and
petty annoyances. None OF the hotels
in the valley are said to he halfway de-
cent. Beds are hard as planks, tables
poor, and a couple of walters for every
one hundred and fifty guests. All the
roads are toll roads all the trails are
toll trails, and about all the grazing
ground in the valley has been leased by
the commissioners and fenced in.

THE TREASURY DEPARTMENT PER
PLExED BY A CIGAR Box A loss, simi-
lar TO the one which now troubles Ger.
Spinner, United States treasurer, oc-
CURED three or four years ago in this
department. With the money sent to
the treasury by the First National bank
of Washington, at the time referred,
was cigar box which Gn. Spinner
took charge of, it being no unusual
thing for that bank to present him with
cigars. That evening about s., 500
were wanting to make the cash
account balance. Careful search after
one or two days traced the def
cheney TO the deposits of the
FIRST National bank, and this fact was
reported to it's officers. On inquiry
among the clerks it was discovered that
the amount missing had been sent to
the treasury in fractional currency
packed in a cigar box-the box which
Gen. Spinner had in his own possession.

THE ROSE OF THE WoRLD.-A cor
respondent writes Santa Barbara now
puts in plea for the largest rose. Less
than year ago DR.. L. N. Dimmick
placed in his grounds a rose plant, the
King of Noisettes, Marechal Neil. This
has extended over tre!is archiug one
of his garden walks. Within the last
six days a shoot some three feet in
length has grown from the foot of this
tTellis. On this stalk. surrounded by
half a dozen vigorous buds, hangs to-
day the champion rose of the world,
in size and perfection. The Marechal
Neil is a cupped variety of rose, having
a lemon tint, and with a delicate and
delightful perfume. This rose is 164
inches in circumference, its shortest
diameter five inches, and the measure
ment in various directions from tip to
tip of petal is over six inches. The
depth of the rose is fully three inches.
This, it is claimed, is the largest rose
on record. Another marvellous thing
noted before leaving the grounds of
DIR. Dimmick was 113 buds on rose
truss of the LIE Marque variety. A
common felt hat covered the space in
which were counted the above number
of buds.

EIOpement Extraordinary.

4 romantic Glopement, the Dundee
Advertiser states, has just occurred in
WIgtOnshire. In Il snug little cottage"
in the country lived the widow of an
Indian merchant and two daughters
the widow forty. two, and the daughters
respectively eighteen and twenty. The
whole three beng pretty and we'll do,
they had numerous admirers and more
than once rumOr announced that first
the widow and then each of the dangh-
ters were on the point Of marriage.
Amongst the more intimate friends of
the family were Mr. B, a wealthy
neiRhbOring farmer, and his wife, who.
with their eldest son, were frequent
visitors and it was on all bands agreed
that the son was to wed Miss l.. the
widows daughter, and ''set up for HIM
SELF on near holding. But the other
morning it became known that the
father was missing-had been gone for a
week so was Miss l., she had been
gone for aweek too. When Mrs. L--aUd
Mrs. B-went mutually to unfold their
gTIefs aid surmIses TO each other, the
horrible truth flashed upon them that
husband and daughter had gone of
tOgetheT-the fathar-in-law that was to
be with his sons intended bride. Sub
sequent inquiries showed this surmise
to he true, and the whole story of de-
ceptiOn became apparent. 1t was found
that preparations for the fight had been
going on for at least a month. Mr.,
B-had during that time been realizing
as much money as he could-reducing
his stock and stackyard to the lowest
possible limits and it is surmised by
the family that on the day of his de-
parture he must have had in his pos
! session from e1, 500 to C2,000. The
| partner of his flight had not been idle
either. Under the plea of being brides,
maid to friend in Glasgow, she had
| persuaded her mother and sister to as
! sist her in getting up a number of new
/ dresses and as she secretly apprOpri-
ated all the family iewelry and spare
cash on the day of her departure-sOm
| long outstanding sums had Just recently
| come in-she has thereby inflicted
| double wound by her sudden disap,
| pearance. 1t has been ascertained since
! that the young lady was met at Dunn
! fries station by Mr.. B; and their
| Joint luggage having been there retick-
eted and relabelled Liverpool" they
went straight to that port. Berths hav-
ing been taken previously in one of the
| Cunard steamers, the pair were steam
ing towards New York before their
friends in Wigtonshire were well aware
of their flight.
