Less than quarter of a century ago she
was acknowledged to be what Bernhardt
is today-the greatest actress in the world
The story of her triumphs would fill a vol
ume Kings and queens have shouted en-
cores and showered jewels at her feet in
tribute to her power. She has scaled the
very peak of fame, and known her name to
be magic word in many lands. Thou
sands have wept or laughed or shUddered
with nameless dread if she but waved
the scepter of her imperial art. 1t is end
ed; but in our memories the record Of her
work will live. She will not be forgotten.
To the enduring list that bears the names
of Cushman, of Rachel, Of Siddons, one
more will be added-Janauschek's
Francesca Romano Magdalena Janau-
schek was born July 20, 1887. at Prague,
Bohemia The romance of her life cannot
be told. The main points of its public side
alone are known, but the glare of foot
lights which has Illuminated for the world
the artist has never quite obscured the wo-
man. At the time of her greatest successes,
when high and low did homage to her, and
thunders of applause would have seemed
most likely to drown all lighter sounds,
the tiniest cry for aid was sure to reach her
ears. She has been always ready and al
ways happy to forget her own greatness in
bending low to help another less fortunate
than herself. But Of this side Of her char
acter she has never spoken. She is content
to let the public judge her by her work
upon the stage.
This began at Prague, when she was six
teen years old. Before she had reached her
eighteenth year, so rapid was her advance
mept that she was given leading roles in
the Stadt theater at Frankfort. For eleven
years she remained in that position, but
when her twenty-ninth birthday came it
found her travelling through the Continent
as star. winning dazzling successes in the
great capitals. All Europe was soon ablaze
with her fame. Then came one of the

Mime. Janauschek Has Not Retired.

The report that Nine. Janauschek per-
manently retired from the stage at the end
of her Pittsburg engagement has proved
to be untrue 1t reached the newspaper
offices with every semblance of being
genuine. Even The Dramatic Mirror was
deceived into giving it space. Nine. jan
auschek produced new play, Harvest
Moon," at Pittsburg, which is said to
have much merit, and which her manager
says she will appear in next season. The
news that this grand old actress has not
left the stage is Welcome

Plotting Naafs.

Plotting meat Is an everyday affair with
English COOKS, and Mrs. Henderson recon-
mends it a. a very good way of managing
left over food, instead of always making il
into hashes and stews. 4 chicken for pot
ting should be roasted; then take off all
the meat, separating it from sinews and
skin, chop and pound 1t thoroughly to-
gether with pound of tongue or of ham.
Boil the bones of the chicken down to a
glaze, moisten the pounded meat with this
glaze and season with salt, cayenne pepper,
nutmeg and little butter. When well
pounded and run through a sieve put it
INTO little stone Jars and press ii in hard.
Place IN a covered stewpan with some boil
ing water in the bottom for half an hour
Press the meat down again, wipe dry and
cover with hot butter. IL Will keep for

TIE BALANCED ROCK OF TAND1L.

The remarkable example shown in the
cut, reproduced from La Nature, occurs at
Tandil, South America, now Buenos Ayres.
The Popular Science News says that the
most striking popularity of this and other
balanced stones is the fact that they can
readily be made 70 move or oscillate by the
application of a comparatively weak force.
The stone of Tandil, for instance, can be
moved by pushing it with a single finger;
but the center of gravity is so low that
only a small amount of vibration can be
produced and it would not be possible to
overturn it by any ordinary means. The
cause of the balancing of these rocks is not
very mysterious 1t is simply case of nat
ural balancing due to the shape Of the
rock and the force of gravitation.

This scheme recommended itself to the
young woman and also to her husband,
and so she arranged such a continuance
for her son, with the alarmingresult faint

the surroundings are 50 different in Bull

the young woman has decided not to make

BALANCED ROCKS.
Striking Peculiarities of These forma'
tions-The Cause of the Balancing.

The so called balanced rocks" are not
very uncommon, and are found in nearly
all countries. Some of these are of glacial
origin, having been left in their peculiar
position by the melting OF the glacier which
brought them from some distant locality,
while others have been carved out on the
spot by the destructive action of the ele-
ments, especially by the erosive effect Of
sand blown by the wind, this natural sand
blast having an almost irresistible power.
The strangely carved rock formations Of
Colorado and the Rocky mountains are
due to this cause while the glacier-borne
powders are more common in New Eng
land and sections of the country lying
north of the Ohio river.

Senator Edmunds' interview with The STAR

Senator Edmunds' interview with The STAR
Is considered Of significance because it recog-
nizes facts Great that Senator is as a rea-
soner it is his ability to see things clearly in
all their lights and bearings and to recognize
their full force and effect which gives him his
prominence in the country. These facts may
be included under the two heads Of practical
legislation and practical politics. Senator Ed
munds, while admitting the force OF the farm
ers' movement to n certain extent, thinks that
they are mistaken as to some things, but he
does not believe that they are actually misled
BY those who try to persuade them that ''cropo

favor of the democrats. In this danger to the

which a government like our own would ex-
perience in attempting to supervise immigrants

of the suggested difficulties in the way of eff

it will be wise for the republic to meet the
obviously undesirable immigrant with pro-
hibition before sailing. Prevention is better
