There is great deal Of what is called
"sport" in the air these days. The people
want it, and the children almost cry for it.
1t is the season when the great, good
natured American public seeks surcease
from politics and other ponderous sor-
rows. The heavy editorial is thing
which it particularly wishes to Stun
The bulky tome lies dusty on the shelf.
There is more demand for news from
the man who is to make the longest hop,
skip and jump than there is for news
from PETER and his new party. The
Gloriana is the cynosure of all eyes, and
the horse that is goingt to lower the record
receives the plaudits of the multitude as
he cyclones past the grand stand.
Newspapers strive to please, and they
can best accomplish this by giving the
heavy proved and solemn-eyed the go-by
during the sportive summer days.

this law that the new schools are being
organized. 1t will be long time before
the native population of New Mexico is
lifted to a level of intelligence as high as
that of most American communities in
the west. But the people of that territory
are moving on the right track, and the
reproach under which they have rested
for so long a time will eventually be re-
moved.
Denver News: The hearty compliance
of the people of New Mexico with the
provisions of the new school law is one
of the most encouraging signs for the fu-
ture of that territory which could be de-
sired. With her land titles settled, and
popular intelligence assured by a public
school system in efficient practical opera
ton, New Mexico will not much longer
knock in vain at the door of the union
for admission.

The Great West.

Ninety per cent of the wheat in south
ern Kansas is already in the shock. Eight
counties have raised and cut 10000, 900
bushels of wheat. In 1889 there were
only four counties in the state which har-
vested over 100000 bushels, namely,
Sumner, Barton, Mcpherson and Saline.
Last year Sumner was the only county in
the state which harvested over 100000
bushels. 1t has the banner and proposes
to keep it. 1t will put in 100000 acres Of
wheat this fall.--Kansas City Star.

Trial by Pamphlet.


Trial by jury is one of the institutions
most dear to the Anglo-Saxon heart, but
it begins to look as if it had had its day.
Formerly the verdict of jury was sup
posed to be conclusive as to the guilt or
innocence OF the person on trial. At
present it can be set aside, to all intents,
by the simple process of publishing a
pamphlet.-European Edition Of New
York Herald.

When Digby Bell got through being

said to me that the dramatic critics should
see play through and see it over again be-
fore more than conventional notice was
written; that criticisms should come later in
the first week to give that opportunity to
do Justice to the author, the manager and
the public.

The newspapers send man the first night
who hears parts of two or three new plays
and goes back to the Office and hurriedly
damns the whole lot. The London critics
are more deliberate and careful and there
fore more just"
While I was pondering this sentiment
the gas man, Mr.. Driscoll, took me down a
dungeon-like staircase into the pit under
the stage where they keep the gas machines,
electrical converters, chorus girls, surplus
scenery and niger baby. This is not the
full schedule, but it will illustrate the wide
range of the variety. / don't know

with plain blonde infant with faxen curls

No wonder he kicks. Digby tried dog
"a stolen dog at that-named SLOPPY
Weather" but the thing resulted in disas-
trous failure. Sloppy went on all right
but resented encores and being very short
in the legs and long in the reach defed even
the engineering skill of the gas man. The
comedian also came near being arrested for
having stolen the dog. So Sloppy went out
with Moses and the lights and retired from
the stage to the butcher shop where he is
being quietly fattened for the winter season.

ously from her long and heavily penciled
lashes. Then more Tartars, male and
female, come trooping in, and the band is
whooping things up lively in front Of the
big curtain. One of the prettiest Tartars,
with blue ewes and golden hair-a girl
could1have loved if hadn't seen her with
my own eyes q member of the, Sultan s
harem in the next act-went up and slyly
peeped through big grease spot In the
curtain.
LOOKING THROUGH THE PEEP HOLE
I tried the same and found hole about
the size of nickel, surrounded by four
inches Of dirt. This is the peep hole and
the border is from the penciled eyebrows
that have rubbed against it for centuries in
the search for "my Johnny" on the front
row. When put my eye to the hole and
saw house ablaze with electric lights and
packed with fashionable people, box and
balcony, was scared I thought the cur
tain had gone up.
The blue-syed Tartar had taken my nail
keg, so went off. A bell jingled, up
rolled the great curtain, and the play went
on. 1 found Digby Bell in his makeup
over on the prompt side;" sitting on the
gas-man's box in earnest conversation with
the stage manager, who appeared to be wor-
ried Something had gone wrong. Bell
was in ragged equipment as the =" Tar" the
poor, unhappy, shipwrecked mariner, who
had the opera written around him, SO to
speak. He looked gloomy, as comedians
invariably do off the stage. The trouble, as
near as I could make out, was about the
game of ball played that day and something
about a short horse at Morris Park. As l

anee of reason; it grows in delicacy and cor
rectness with the progress of the individual
and of society at large; it has its laws which
are seated in the nature Of man, and it is in
the development Of these laws that we find
the true standards of taste, or as Akenside
has. 50 beautifully expressed it:
"What. then, Is taste but those internal

gold,
Nor purple state, nor culture, can bestow
But God alone, when first His sacred hand
Imprints the secret bias of the soul
The French philosopher Cousin says:
"Three faculties enter into that complex
sfaculty that is called taste-imagination
sentiment, reason" Sentiment according
to this author receives the impression,
reason passes Judgment onit, while imagins-
ton produces the sensation of pleasure ex-
perienced by the mind.
STUDY Is NECESSARY.
Thus it can be readily seen that diligent
study and close application to the princi-
pies contained in matter and style are abso-
lutely necessary, of course in conjunction
with God-given talent, to complete appre-
citation of classical music as well as any
other art. And one who is not musically
acquainted with the productions of genius
sees no more in them than commonplace
compositions and listens to them only
through curiosity or mere fashionable fad.
But, on the contrary, one who listens
intellectually to q musical composition,
hears not only a leading melodic thought,
but q beautiful picture is presented
to his imagination, wherein, in addi-
ton to the one chief figure or idea,
various interesting minor ideas will pass
before bis mind in panoramic view. And
again, other musical compositions will ap-
pear as beautiful pieces of tapestry, where.
in Intervening and interlacing strains and
thematie threads Of different colors shoot
through the harmonic warp, thus exhibiting
the formation and texture of the wonderful
art work produced by the great music weav-
er's shuttle.
Therefore, let each real student of music
seek to gain admission to the grand, intel
lectual conservatorium wherein his intel
lect, as well as his emotions, will be SO
beautifully blended as to round out q SYM
metrically appreciatiye love for the beauti-
full in musical art. SIMEON BIsSELL.

ARRIVAL OF THE STAGE MANAGER
This is the stage managers peculiar do

srmful Of new costumes, holds consulta-

are fine woolen goods and are being got
ready for the road. 1t takes 46 pairs for
the young female Tartars, who, by the way,
are about as shapely a lot of singers as could
well be got together.
The wardrobe woman is apparently brist-
ling with needles variously threaded,
ready for emergencies. She gave way

that time till the gas is turned off the house
at IL o'clock he is here and there and every

told me that his duties in this piece are
