They Are True to Nature and Some times
&c, Queer Testimonials.
1t Is nv genuine conviction that the jap
anese actors are fully entitled to the credit
they receive for the dellneati0n of senti-
ment and passion, Few spectators, how
ever hardened by experience. could witness
unmoved the mastery exhibitions Of forth
tude under suffering, tilial devotion, conju-
gal tenderness and patriotic ardor which
are constantly presented for the admiration
of the theater-going multitude. And really
our audiences are sometimes more than
moved. In the season Of 1857, lchikawa
IchiZo was playing the part of a pirate chief
who treats his father with great cruelty and
exposes him to shame as well as grief. The
performance was one day interrupted by
samurat from distant province, who sud
denly sprang upon the stage and attacked
Ichikawa with dagger, inflcting several
wounds before lie could be seized and dis
armed. He had been so carried away by
the actors truthfulness that he attributed
to the man himself, and not TO the ideal
character, the acts of iilial implety.
The brilliant romantic actor YebiZo was
once engaged in representing n treacherouS
fencing master, who first asSasSinates q
rival swordsman and afterward murders,
under circumstances of unparalleled atroc-
ity, the two sons OF his victim. During
this latter scene of inhuman slaughter a
spectator in the pit flung heavy tobacco
box at the actors head, severely bruising
him, and for short time suspending the
progress Of the play. immediately after
the curtain was drawn, at the close Of the
act, Yebizo presented himself before the
audience, with the tobacco box fastened
upon his head in place of the cap
ne had worn during the performance.
In a few lively but emphatic words
he declared himself grateful for so unmis-
taxable proof of appreciation, notwith-
standing the extraordinary manner in
which it had been manifested, and pro-
fessed his determination to make himself
worthy, for ever after. of testimonial the
sincerity of which was beyond suspicion.

When Bismarck lived at Kniephof his
Danish hound was renowned throughout
the whole neighborhood as Favored per-

attached to his household. These were sue
ceeded in Petersburg by couple of young
bears, which he allowed to range about the

when they reached maturty-he pre-

Frankfort and Cologne. "Mschka" used to

have heard great many things said in
my time against poverty, but never till the
other day, when a clever woman made the
suggestion, did it occur to me that poverty
tends to make IL man conceited. Her argu-
ment was as follows: A poor man has to
earn his living, and the mere fact
that he does so leads him to think
highly of himself, whereas the rich
man, who lives on the interest of
money, acquired originally by an ancestor
near or remote, makes no living, is not even
certain that he could make one, and conse-
Quently remains in humble, or at least
in modest state of mind. Well, there
is doubtless fragment of truth here.
Certain men who cut very small figure
in the world often have large way of talk
ing, especially at home. about their "busi-
ness" the Importance of it, its difficulties,
responsibilities, etc. But as to the modesty
of the rich man l am not quite so clear.
Some people are purse roud, and so subtle
and profound is the capacity of human ma
ture for deceiying itself that / doubt il any
body could be rich without, unconscously,
perhaps, thereupon and thereby regarding
himself as in some degree at least superior
person.-Boston Post.

L. j. Barbour of Helena, Mont, who Is at

last evening by telling something of Crow
foot, the famous chief of the Blackfeet,
who died few days ago in his tepee in the
Blood camp, near Fort Mcleod.
"Crowfoot is the picturesque Indian"
said Mr.. Barbour, ''whom Fenimore
Cooper delighted to write about. During
the last few years the old chief was visited
by a number of distinguished persons,
among them Lord Stanley, who was at the
camp not long ago. There never lived an
Indian who possessed more personal cour-
age than Crowfoot. His body was mass of
knife and bullet scars received in Indian
wars. He was always friendly to the
whites, and 1t was by his influence
that the Blackfeet remained peaceful dur
ing the Indian troubles Of 1885. He averted
trouble time and time again. The Indians
obtained quantity of whisky at noun

became so worked up that general
massacre was decided upon. Crowfoot
