The Old Melodrama.

How well can recall the effects produced
upon my boyish imagination by the perfor-
nance Of an old melodFama-how breath
lessly watched the assassins with their
long daggers and short swords and gigantic
pistols creeping ABOUT the stage, to pizzicato
music, in search of the good young man of
the story, who was concealed behind tree
or piece Of ruin, but who would so reck-
lessly expose himself to indulge in brief
commentaries upon their movements; what
terrible suspense I endured when the pale
weird woman with the black hair, who
passed all her life in moaning and cursing
over some mysterious wrong, was attempting.
to the tremulous wailings Of the violin, the
escape Of the lovely captive from the robbers
den; and how could scarcely suppress a
cry, when the robber himself, all boots. but
tons and pistols, suddenly barred their way
Then the great combat at the end, to the
shrieking Of fiddles, the blare Of comets, and
the beating Of drums, wherein the good
young man fought two and sometimes three
ruffians, and, although nearly overpowered
'AiNAN eA"h chNSs AibAhhabSAJ SdISSSASd lay
ing their black wigs low; then there was The
rush on of the lovely captive, red fire, and
the apotheosis Of virtue trampling upon vice.
Very frequently there was ghost who APP
peared at opportune moments In lambent
flames of blue fire, much to the terror Of all
the Williams, and to the qualification Of all the
good people. The old meIodrama was strict
ly conventional; the robbers always wore
dirty boots of Unframed leather, jackets with
many short tails and adorned with many
buttons; long black hair and boards of burnt
cork. 1t would be curious chronological in
QUESTION 10 inquire into the ORR
gin Of the old dramatic idea that
wickedness is confined to black-haired
people; 8 nee Lady Audley, however, there
has been run on red. There was no casu-
istry about the old melodrama, no paltering
with sin; vice and virtue were divided by
impossible lines; trimming was impossible;
you must be one thing or the other poetical
justice was always rigidly enforced, the tri-
umph of wickedness was unknown In that
world, and how anybody could be wicked
when they knew that terrible doom would
inevitably overtake them, or how anybody
could think of being otherwise than immac-
ulately vrtuous when they were SO well re-
warded for it, was one of those problems
that could be referred only to the peryersity
of human nature

THE future domestic policy of the British
government appears to be pretty clear in ia
vor of the adoption of some modified meas
ure for land reform for Great Britain, with
out regard to the personal question of the
continued dominance of Premier Gladstone
In the government of Parliament, because 1t
now seems to be admitted that even if Glad
stone should sustain defeat, no opposition
party can be successful on that issue at the
general election. This may, however, be a
mistake, as the power of the British land
lords is enormously great.

THE Irish subscriptions to the ParnelI
fund do not appear to have been stopped by
the influence of The Vatican circular in Ire
land, although the parish priests of the Lat
in Church in that country are now observed
to be uniformly absent from the National
League meetings. But as their church mem
bers seem to be all as much devoted to Par
nell and home rule as ever, it does not seem
likely that the priests are really opposing
the national cause. The situation In that
country may be, and no doubt is, difficult
one for the hierarchy of the Latin Church,
but for the mass of the Irish people the road
appears to be very straight one.

THE real importance of the present Apa-
che war to the future progress and prospect
ty of New Mexico and Arizona may be esti-
mated by the fact that since the government
suppressed the warlike tribes of western
Texas the population of that State doubled
in numbers in the last census decade Texas
is now one of the most prosperous, flourish
ing, productive and enterprising States of
the Union, and railroads are in operation in
regions that were formerly supposed to be
hopeless deserts.
