presented with an snaoressnaent highly natu-
raj. Perhaps there are some SO fastid1ous as
TO complain that the life drama partakes too
much of Chinese play. Each day
series of acts are presented, and
the day following others similar in character
are reproduced. To such hypocritical fault
finders, the old saying, there's nothing new
under the sun" should be quoted as COM
plete answer to their objections. Gall the
worlds a STAGE" and the life scenes and
acts of man, the actor, are portrayed too nat
urally to raise the semblance of cavil. If
the drama "Fiat Justitia'' be worthy of the
highest commentator, the actors should be
awarded no less praise. They viyify the
play, and as the mimetic art is, in perfec-
ton, true semblance of nature, they should
be denominated artists of the highest at
talnments, for nature and they ara twins in
the presentation. The mise en- scene is
to be praised for its strict adherence
to custom. The mounting of the play bel ng
set court scene. This scene never varies, and
after all, scenery on or off the stage is
only matter of taste. A good actor can
make you forget the set. as fine converse
tlonalist can vile away the hours over even
a Sahara. The cast speaks for itself, and is
as follows:

the stage, and in rotation gave place to some
new scene or act in the drama of life be-
