sHAKEsPEARR's JEW.
November Atlantic.

Ii il In Antonio personally that the
attitude of the medieval Christian
toward the jew Is found. The unex-
planned melancholy of Antonio, his
fidelity In high minded friendship,
and the dignity of his bearing under
the cruelty To which he Is exposed
have obscured to us the other side of
his character as the Rialto merchant.
We see more OF BdssdRio's Antonio
than of ShylocPs +. the man who had
interfered with the usurer in every
way and personally maltreated him,
and was as like TO do the same again
the proud, hard hearted and insulting
magnifco whom &ylOck hated for
himself. Antonio Is every whit ~
heartless TO the Jew In the hour of his
trinmnh a. lShnLock Was 70 him when
the balance leaned the other way. His
cruelty Is lacking only In the phys
element Ii Is not bloody, but Ii goes
to the bone and marrow of ShyLocks
nature none the less. There is ho sign
that Shakespeare saw any wrong In all
this. 1t was thus that the Christians
looked upon the Jews, and they
thought such treatment right. Shakes
peare differed from others-from Mar
lowe, for instance, In his delineation of
the jew of Malta-in one point only :
he was able TO take ShyL0ck's point of
view, to understand his motives, to
assign the reasons with which revenge
justified its own motions In q word,
to represent ShytOcks humanity. The
speeches he puts into the jews mouth
are intense and eloquent EXPIRE ssions of
the rationale OF that lodged hate" In
his bosom; they are true to fact and
to nature; on our ears they come with
overwhelming force, and IL Is impossi-
BILE to our thoughts that Shakespeare
could have written them without SYM
patty for the wrongs that they set
forth with such fiery heat. But when
from this IL is argued that Shakes
peare, in writing this play, made q
deliberate plea for federation, and car
ried il as far as the necessities OF his
plot and the temper Of his times per-
mitted, then IL is needful TO remind
ourselves of what Booth calls "the
baseness of ShytOcPs nature" Shakes
peare did represent him as base, with
avarice, cunning and revenge for the
constituent elements of his character !;
he did not hesitate to let the exhibit
ton of these low qualities approach
the farcical, as he never would have
done had he thought of the Jew as In
any sense heroic. ShyiOck had suffered
insult and wrong, but there was moth
ing in him individually to excite CON-
miseration. From beginning TO end
he shows no noble quality. Modern
sympathy with him, apart from the
pity that tragedy necessarily stirs, Ia
social sympathy, not personal; II is
because he is an outcast and belongs to
an outcast race, because every mans
hand lie against him and against all his
people, that the audience of this GEN.
fury perceives an injustice inherent In
his position itself, antecedent to, and
independent of, any Of his acts; and
this injustice Is ignored in the play.

THIRD WARD.

The contest in the Third ward was
sharp one. but while a great deal of en-
thusiasm was manifested and the can
wasting was spirited, the contest
Throughout the ward was marked by the
absence OF hostile demonstrations by
either party during the entire day. In
each of the four districts balloting COM
menced in lively manner at the open
ing of the polls, and was continued UNI
til nearly the whole number of voters
registered had cast their ballots. In
the First, Second and Third districts
the majority of citizens voted before
g 80 O'clock, but in the Fourth district.
where the registration was over LOCO,
the scene was lively one up to the
closing of the polls at o'clock, and the
Judges were hurried to record the votes
in the time allotted. a feat
ure Of the contest in this
ward was the electiOneering tactics
adopted by the gang OF heelers, and
bulldOzers who were in force at the diff
ferent precincts. and labored hard In
their efforts to hold up the bulwarks of
liberty, evidently believing that not one
man in a hundred knew how he
wanted to vote and that it was their duty
to receive him as he came to the polls
and fix up his ticket. The young man
about to cast his nader vote fell an
easy victim to this crowd, and was be-
sieged on all sides by heeIers anxious
to convince him of the wisdom If start
ing out right and voting for their candi-
dates. When the citizen happened to
appear who thought he had fixed his
ticket to suit his principles, a grand eff
fort was made to undeceiye him, even
fit was found necessary to call his
candidates horse thieves and barn burn
ers, but if it was impossible to convince
him that the country would be knocked
into cooked hat if he persisted in his
ill-advised course, he voted according
to the dictates of his own reason.
Washington and our revolutionary
fathers were frequently referred to. and
stories of the wickedness of the opposi-
ton candidates were told that would
chill the very souls of the uninitiated
with terror. At O'Clock, however,
when the Iabors of these patriots were
concluded they fiocked as by a common
impulse to the neighboring saloons and
public loaf ng places to await the re-
suits of their labors, and all joined as
brothers in tossing the rosy" forget
ting the hard and bitter struggle so
recently passed through.

FIFTH WARD,

. Voting was quiet and steady through
out the day. In the Fifth district the
registration was about 575. of which 800
votes were polled. Bean, from all APP
pearances, polled the heaviest vote for
sheriff, with Caulfield breaking in OH
Moeller's ground slightly. In the Sec
ond district 600 names were registered,
of which about 400 were polled. The
voting here was active in the forenoon,
but Irregular in the evening and very
slow. Straight tickets marked char
acteristic of this precinct. while eonsid-
cradle scratching and FASTING was done
in the First. The Third, with regis
tration of only SO, had so polled at 5
O'Clock, the stragglers voting from then
until the close of the polls. All were
polied, and order prevailed all day. The
Fourth district, with registration of
600, polled all but about 10 votes.
Moeller was running hard, and Snider
and Wilson away ahead Of their ticket.
REM and Bell were favoritas, and consid-
cradle FASTING and scratching were done.
In the Fifth there were GA registered,
all of which were polled. Cut Demo-
cratic tickets with Bean and Van Slyke
pastors were principally used. Here
the voting commenced promptly at 9
O'Clock and continued all day. A cen-
tinuous line of from twenty-five to sew
enty-fve were always in waiting, and
probably the greatest number of votes
of any precinct IN the ward were pOlled
here. Straight tickets with Bean. Mar
koe and REM were favored. In the
Sixth district there were 563 names reg
istered, and all polled. Voting here was
faster than at any other precinct i'll the
ward, averaging as fast sometimes as
two minute. Bohemians and Poland
ers were the principal voters. Snider
and Bean were running ahead of the
ticket in the afternoon. while Wilson
polled largely for the gubernatofial
count. The Seventh polled the whole
registration, railroad shopmen voting
late in the day, and mostly Republican
tickets with little scratching. Thirty
eight registered in the Eighth district.
Voters we're Struggling in all day, and,
with few exceptions, all were polled.
Throughout the ward all was quiet.
No disorder of any kind nor illegal v0t-
ing attempted. No challenge was offered
in any of the districts.

How to save the Eyesight.

Next to sunlight the incandeScent
light gives the best illumination for
reading, and all notions of the Injurious
effect on the eye of the electric light are
erroneous.
The vast majority of people who
wear glasses can see well without them.
They use them ta avoid constant STRAIN
Oil the eyes. The act of loealizatlon is
a muscular one, and uses up nervous
energy.
The oversighted eye, in which the
focus comes behind the retlna. has to
perform this muscular act continually.
The results are headaches, irritablIIty
and nausea. The only remedy in such
cases is to wear glasses.
The near-signted child should wear
spectacles. because they are the best
preventive against increase OF near
sightedness, aud also because he loses
a great part of education in not being
able to see more than few feet away.
For the eyes in healthy state there
is but one safe wash-pure cold water.
When the eyelids are infiamed the best
lotion is a weak solution of salt aud
water. Never apply poultices to the
eyes or use .'eye-waterS' without the
advice of a physician.
At the first symptoms or near-Slgnted-
ness spectacles should be worn. There
is great deal Of popular prejudice
against spectacles, but there are two
good reasons why they should be worn,
and only two-ene is that we see
better and the other that the
strain on the eyes may be relieved:
In reading the book or paper should
be held at distance Of from ten to ff-
teen inches from the eyes. The read
er's position should be such that the
light may fall on the book and not on
the eyes. The light itself should be
sufficient. Nothing is so injurious to
the eyes as poor light in reading.

NINTH WARD.

In each of the seven districts of the
Ninth ward it was as quiet all day as it
is usually OH Sunday. The long strings
of men that stood in line a good part of
the day were patient and good natured,
and all about each of the districts the
best of feeling prevailed. Mayor Smith
proclamation closing the saloons
seemed to be rigidly enforced. and had
most gratifying effect. Sobriety and
peaeefulneSS prevailed. In the Fifth
district there seemed to be about as
much excitement as anywhere, and
few small bets were made, but nothing
Of any consequence was wagered.
Everybody was too hard at work
getting in votes to waste much time in
wrangling and betting. Some. of the
candidates were around visiting the
polls during the afternoon hurrying up
the business of getting out the voters.
Carriages and OmnibusseS were brought
out in goodiy numbers, and the voters
were hauled in very rapidly, especially
toward night. The Second and Fourth
districts of the Ninth ward were on
nearly opposite corners OF jackson
street. just above Valley street, and at
times during the afternoon the crowds
around tbs polls were very large. At
the corner of Broadway and Thirteenth
streets the plumber OF people was larger
than at any other districts in the ward.
At the First district, on Martin street,
the crowd was large all day long, but it
was Quaker gathering, and void Of any
interest. i-fe.4 q,

SIXTH WARD,

The different districts OF the: Sixth
ward were remarkably quiet yesterday.
A full vote was polled in the majority
of the districts, especially those which
were largely Democratic. In those
which usually give. Republican ma
jority there was considerably less
number of votes cast than thetIIyEmber
OF names registered. This was pltice-
ably the case i'll the Fifthtpreeinct,
where there were SIS names registered
and 440 votes polled. The. workers in
the Fourth district were exceedingly
busy getting out their voters, land De-
fore O'Clock every vote but twelve had
been deposited. This was alsotheI ease
in the First district. The Prohibition
ISIS were very active in several of; the
districts. AT the polls of the Fifth dis
trict prominent clergyman of the1West
side wished to be allowed toemake
prohibition speech, but he was told that
he would have to mount a barrel. and this
he declined to do. Another Prohihaion-
ist declared that his party was making
rapid gains, for in his districts the
Eighth, where only six PnDhibitory
votes were cast last year, there. would
be thirteen this year. Many of the In
dependent Labor party were observed
at the different polls working for their
respective candidates. The little bet
ting that was done was principally on
the congressional contest. A few bets
were made on Moeiler and Caulfeld.
w. Fl. McMartin bet $40 with Ed VOlk

Charlie HoItOn on the gubernatorial
contest of five hats to one. One of the
most novel bets ON the, congressional

back beh nd brass band through the

winner is to head the procession OH

SHE DlNED WITH A KING.
A Pennsylvania Lady Guest at
the Royal Palace of Siam.


Pittsbnrg Dispatch. .sgy
70 dine with the King of Siam was
the rare privilege of an Allegheny county
lady recently. Miss Kate N. ,Fleeson.
of Neville Island, was the lucky guest,
and letters have just been received by
her friends giving al account Of the
royal feast Miss FleeSOn left Pit6Sburg
Il year ago next month as a PreSbyte-
rian missionary to the far-aWaytand. 1t
required almost seven monthSs fOntin-
uaI travelling before she Realized La
kawn, her destination in Siam! 81 ~
1t appears that the king and queen
both regard Protestant missionaries
with favor. and the evangelstica work
in their domains. has received many
marks of imperial pleasure. Miss Flee
son, with several other missionaries,
was in Chieng Maj about the mid
die of June, several days before she
came to the end of her Journey. The
kings invitation to the party to dine in
his new summer palace was conveyed
by the queen. 1t was accepted, and it
was understood it would be nothing
more than all Informal dinner.
When the party entered the palace
they were shown to the general recep-
ton chamber, and were seated on divans
upholstered with Persian rugs. Drink
ing mugs of gold ana silver were then
given each visitor and these were quick
" followed by a waiter bearing a solid
gold chest filed with ''betel." This

brought them tea in China cups and

Then they were introduced TO the
king. He is charming old gentleman,
dressed in pure white, with gold and
purple trimmings. He led the way to
the banquet hall. The table was beau
tifuI with silverware OF coStliest de-
signs and cutglass vessels. The dinner
was good American meal, but it was
quite extensive, being served in twenty
courses. A conversation was conducted
by the king in formal manner. After
the repast his highneSs summoned the
palace acrObats to the stage at the
threshold of the adjoining room. They
perfarined skillful tricks and feats for
the next hour. Miss Fieeson describes
this part of the entertainment as being
somewhat of bore.
Miss FleeSon HAD another treat in the
shape of an elephant ride from Chieng
Maj to Laknawn. 1t lasted three days
and was through wild section of Siam.
They tented in the woods at. night.
There were FIVE elephants in the train,
and the young lady says the swaying
and rocking was not unlike that of
ship at sea. There were many high
mountains to climb, and general sur
prise was expressed at the easy way in
which the big elephants accomplished
the task

A WkOoplng Big Tomato Vine.
Portland Oregonian.
The account which appeared in the
Oregonian some days since of Frank
Dayton's big tomato vines has excited
the interest of William Mclaughlin. of
Albany, who calls the2 Herald
of that place to witness that
he has a tomato vine so large That
Mr.. Daytan's will fade into insignifi-
canee. 1t was planted on May 10 by
Mr.. Mclaughlin, has now attained THE
prodigious height of nearly thirteen
feet, and is still growing. The main
vine is nearly three inches in circumfer-
ence, and the branches cover an area of
twenty feet. On the vine can now be
seen ripe and green fruit and blooms.
