AT THE BETHEL UNION.

The Bethel Union Sunday School
Room was well filed last evening,
with large audience of young and
old, brought together by the an
nouncement of q proposed visit of
the patron saint of the season. A
part of the room was curtained off,
and expectation was on tip-toe to
see what there was behind the
scenes. On the withdrawal of the
curtain, the audience found them
selves in front of large chimney
and fireplace of the olden times in
higher ATTITUDES than that admitting
of palm tree verdure at Christmas,
the red tiles along the mantel being
festooned with rows of empty stock
ings, the fire burning low on the
hearth, and grandma toddling about,
and, with q quavering voice, soli-
loquising over the vicissitudes of
by-gone years, and with frequent
iterations, certifying the fact that
"Christmas is not what it was when
1 was a child" The old DANES
daughter comes in after putting her
charges to sleep, draws from her
kerched parent, story of her con-
version, at the age of sixteen, from
the belief of her Puritan ancestors
that the observance of Christmas is
a relic of superstition. The inter-
view ended, granny sends her "good
child" off to bed, and soon follows
suit herself. A few moments silence,
and loud noise is heard. Some
body must be coming down the
chimney, and, sure enough, pair
of feet are seen dangling over the
embers, followed little by little with
a pair of corduroy covered legs,
well developed body encased in a
red jacket, and luXuriantly beard
ed head surmounted by a high
peaked travellers storm cap. The
visitor, who can be no other than
Santa Claus, with many "whoas" to
his team, proceeds to unload basket
after basket, from somewhere up
the chimney until about, dray load
of emotions" are deposited in the
room. The distribution of the gifts
followed and occupied some half al
hour, not only the Sunday Schoo
children but also the adult members
of the congregation being favored
with suitable tokens of kindly re
membrance. Refreshments, con
sisting of ice cream and cake, fol
lowed and ended the programme O
one of the best Santa Claus enter
tainments of the season.

''Some men haven't the nerve to look a

provide themselves with small change OF go
out just before the box is passed" This
was the remark of minister of st. Paul
the other day. when speaking Of the col

mass temperance meeting. This started a
conversation on the general subject of
church going and colIection-taking, in
which the anecdotes told possibly illus
trate the veracity OF the sage who said:
IF you want to see the people OF coun-
try or city you must visit their theaters,
their markets and their churches"
II don't know why 1t is" went on the
minister, who, by the way, does not fill
a pulpit at present, but has come down to
the secular affairs of the world, that man
should have any fear of letting the box go
by without contribution. Many of the
people in any church in ST. Paul on an Or
binary Sunday are strangers, perhaps con-
nected with other churches, who make
their regular contributions; they may not
be acquainted with person in the congre-
cation, and they may know to practical
certainty that they will not be known or
recognized by any of the church or the
preacher five minutes after the benediction,
but, for all that. they seem to think it is a
reflection on their personal character if they
allow the box to pass and they do not con-

on both sides the terms of the contract
were faithfully adhered to- Mr.. Hill had
great faith in his ward. and spared no eX-
pense. Miss Mather' studied with eager
ness and intensity-going nowhere, seeing

that she should gain experience before be-

Judic was daring experiment, and it is
surprising that any manager could be found
to take the risks of bringing her to Amer

He said at Carlsbad where he spent part
of his summer, 1.-The time has gone by for
obvious coarseness and vulgarity; the Amer
lean public is now quite capable of appreci-
ating fine French dramatic art. and l am
going to give it to them" Perhaps he was
right. Frenchmen do not go to the theater
merely to see pretty woman; they go to
see acting-acting that requires all their at
tention; that is full of the most delicate
subtleties and shades of meaning-the finest
of which are those best appreciated. This
is not the opera bOuffe style, and that Judic
with her good and kind, but not pretty face,
her matronly figure and entire freedom from
kicking and grimaces, has been able to draw
and hold her audiences, is certainly EVIL
dence of great advance in intelligence and
insight on the part of the average theater-
goer. Her first appearance was great
her before. She was one of group of
convent school girls, and SIZE wore, like the
rest. the coors dedicated to the Virgin
white and blue-only the ribbon was wider
and formed larger. diamonds upon the front
The picture she presented was almost alb
surd, the incongruity between her face, her
figure and youthful convent dress was so
striking. All the way through the perform
ance she is unaided by any of the arts and
coquetries of the toilet-not excepting the
one elaborate costume in which she appears
as great actress, but which is singularly
unbecoming and unsuited to her style. Yet
she wins her audience. and she does it, not
by her voice, for there is too little of it,
but by thousand little charms of manner
and the very spirit of comedy. which
sparkles all over her and infects her audi
ence.

her age; and on the stage she is usually
either silly or disgusting. 1t is often said
that woman cannot play Juliet till she is
too old to play it. But if it is hard for
woman to play Juliet it is as hard for a
man to play Romeo-there is so much of it
that sounds like the presence of passion in
Romeo as for instance when he is the hrst
to discover daylight, and draws the picture
of the risks to which he is exposed when
Juliet would fain keep him longer. But
Romeo is really of little account with Miss
Mather as Juliet. She is a type she is the
embodiment of an intense, violent, unrea-
soning. overmastering passion, which must
have an object. and clothes that object
with all imagined and imaginable perfec-
tions--qualities which have no more to do
with him than with dozens Of the common
place men whom women idealize, and upon
whom they lavish idolatry. Miss Mather is
the most vigorous and honest Juliet that has
been seen in New York in many years
She is also refined, intelligent and appre-
cative one.
Miss Mather has fairly conquered her place
and must be accepted as worthy of fore
most rank in the legitimate drama. She
has not the beauty nor the genius of Miss
Anderson, but she has many natural quail
ticationS-among others an expressive face
and rich, flexible, wel-trained voice. She
has also acquired astonishing mastery over
herself, never forgetting for moment what
she is portraYing, and showing in every
word and movement the high result of con-
science and resolute will.

At one of the towns in Mississippi where
we stayed over Sunday couple of stran-
gers got into dispute about the age of the
earth. They were sons of planters, and
neither of them over % years of age. The
dispute started in good-natured way, but
ended in one of them springing up, pulling
out bowie-knive, and threatening to
carve the other up if his word was dis
puted again. The other was defenseless,
and wisely held his peace. The man with
the knife sat down, and conversation
turned to other channels. By and by the
defenseless man got up and lounged away,
and next we saw of him, half an hour later,
he was resting the muzzIe of a double

pillars of the hotel, and had US all covered.

triggers, and his eyes blazed like tiger as

had met somewhere near the binding of the
