No hikh tOineuy NOWauhyH-
This generation knows almost nothing
by stage experience of pure high comedy
except in tho way of revival. What IN
der the name of comedy has occasionally
won success on our English stage is n
production which has somewhat reached
upward to tragedy or stretched down
ward to farce, or, more often, has Dor
rowed the fine feathers of ~melodrama.
The true, fuller modern comedy, such ms
Molierc initiated. and even our best res
toration comedy playwrights have but
poorly initiated from him. and such as
once or twice that greatest comedy gc-
Mus of this century, Labiche, has at
tempted in an nge that asked for lower
things, is an unknown thing now on the
London stage.
Now this finer and fuller comedy that
we know not is more than a mere represen-
tation Of life, OF even an Interpretation
of it. 1t is a larger thing altogether, for,
first, it must contain some element Of
not unldndly satire, with keen wit and
broad humor, or it is no true comedy.
Then, too, nature is not TO be merely
photographed, but a mirror is to be held
up TO reflect the likeness and at times
the antics of human nature; but it must
be n magic mirror, that shall have just
such n power of artful distortion in II as
that we shall never ourselves be hurt to
think we perceive our own lineaments
disfigured or our own motions Knocked.
Finally, there must be some sort of cleo
tricism-a picking out of the salient
points of human nature, an ~intensifca-
ton and an enhancement. 1t is clear
there must be this, for the realism loving
audiences could not stand the pointless
and long winded talk of ordinary men
and women.-Fortnightly Review.

A Grateful Prisoner.

On April % last the Singer Sew.
ing Machine company caused the ar,
rest of E. w. Logston, a former
agent, charging him with the embez-
Element of S60.75-money which the
company claimed he had collected
and unlawfully appropriated for his
own use. Logston was arrested at
Circleville. Kan, and wss brought TO
Sedalia on a requisition. He has
been confined in the Pettis county Jail
from that date until yesterday when
Eli Newsom, of Clifton, Kan, an
uncle of Logston's went ON his bond
for $500 for his appearance for trial
in November.
Logston called at the BAzoo office
to-day and desired to publicly state
that he received the kindest of treat
ment while confined In the Jail.
Sheriff Smith and his deputies and q
number o. Sedaiia friends spared no
effort to make his sojourn behind the
bars as comfortable as possible.
