TENNYSON'S EARLY POEMS.

From the BoOkman.
Tennyson was only years old when
he covered both sides of his broth
er's slate with poem on "Flowers,' ''
done in unimpeachable meter. His
brother had said to him, "See if you can
write poetry" and when he read the
verses on the slate he merely said:
you've done it, Between the ages of
IL and and II the young poet wrote an
epic of over 1000 lines in Scott's octo-
syllabics mingled with heroics. These
were the only finished poems of Tenny-
sons boyhood, but when about IA or Is
years he commenced drama in iambic
meter which still survives. Thus he
practiced himself in three different me-
tiers before he began seriously to write
or publish. There is no man, however,
who is so careful of his poetical reputa-
tion as Lord Tennyson.and it is not like
ly that he will permit this early drama
ever to see the light of day. The num-
Der of his own poems which Tennyson
has suppressed during his lifetime would
fill a bulky volume.

Disorders Which Affect the Kidney.

Disorders Which Affect the Kidneys
Are among the most formidable known.
Diabetes, Bright's disease, gravel and
other complaints of the urinary organs
are not ordinarily cured in severe cases,
but they may be averted by timely
medication. A useful stimulant of the
urinary glands has ever been found in
Hostetters Stomach Bitters, medicine
which not only affords the requisite
stimulus when they become inactive.
but increases their vigor and secretive
power. By increasing the activity of
the kidneys and bladder, this medicine
has the additional effect of expelling
from the blood impurities which it is
the peculiar Office of those organs to
eliminate and pass off. The Bitters is
also purifier and strengthener of the
bowels, an invigorant of the stomach,
and matchless remedy for biliousness
and fever and ague. 1t counteracts a
tendency to premature decay, and
sustains and comforts the aged and

Grand Opera House.

Beginning tomorrow evening at the Grand
Opera House, Julia Marlowe will make her
first appearance before Pittsburg audience
at this popular house. Much has been
written about this young woman, and it is
natural that the theater-goiug people OF
Pittsburg will be much interested in seeing
her. 1t is said of her that nature has en-
dowed her with great stage talent and
genius. She has the reputation of being an
actress of nature, sent to interpret art by
natures own method. 1t is said that she has
been courageous enough to defy stage ira
dition and set up an originality of her own.
1t is likewise said that this remarkable tai
ent is hers by right of inheritance. She is
q descendant of the great Marlowe family,
of England, some of whom graced the stage
OF that country for great many years.
Others CT the family were equally we'll
known in the other arts and in literature.
Miss Marlowe enjoys the reputation of being
one of the most thorough Shakespearian
students at the present time. 1t is safe to
say that Miss Marlowe's engagement is of
more than ordinary importance. There GER
tainly can be no objection to the list of
plays to be presented, arranged as follows:
Monday evening, "As You Like It;' Tuesday
evening, "1ngomar;'' Wednesday evening
"Much Ado About Nothing:" Thursday
evening, Romeo and Juliet" Friday even
ing, '1ngomar" (repeated); Saturday matinee
-,AS You Like IT. (repeated); and Saturday
evening, Twelfth Night"

The alvin Theater.

A new play interpreted by a company of
unusual ability is the attraction promised at
this house for this week. 1t is a comedy
called "The Prodigal Father" written by
Glen McDonough, a young talented news
paper man of New York, and the son OF the
veteran manager, Tom McDonough. 1t is
said to be a step away from common run of
farce comedies, and departure for the
better. The plot is practically the familiar
story Of the prodigal son reversed. The
hero of the play is an elderly gentleman who
travels on his religion and charitable dispo-
sition, but who really is the worst of all
Iakes, an old one While he is supposed to
be risking his life in the wilds of Central
Africa for the purpose of saving the souls of
the Denighted heather there, he is in reality
chasing a young and charming actress
who has Infatuated him with her songs.
When it is considered that this character
is to be created by such q wonder ully
clever actor as W. H. Thompson, it can be
seen that with anything like proper help
from the author, "The Prodgal Father" will
prove intensely amusing. The story is
worked up TO a strong denoument, wherein
the scapegrace parent is discovered in his
lniquity by his son and received back by
the latter with all the customary of to-do
which awaits The Prodigal Son. The play
is said to be cleverlv constructed and to
contain witty Dialogue, and original char
acter drawing. Messrs. c. b. Jefferson, Klaw
anu EIiauSel, VINO are ble managers, nave
provided suitable scenery, and a company
of unusual strength. Besides Mr. ThOmp-
son the following well-known actors will be
found in the cast: George Boniface Jr, Miss
Ruth Carpenter, Miss Alice Esden, Mr..
Charles Lothian. Nh. Ivan Peronet, Mr.. Ed
ward See, La Regaloncira. This will be the
first performance 1.-The Prodigal Fat her" has
ever had upon any stage, and upon its sue
cess here will depend to large extent its
fate next season. 1t is understood that Mr..
Joseph jefferson and several other notable
actors and managers will be present on Mon
day night,

Harry Davis Museum-Theater.

There will be babies OF all sizes and de-
scriptions, babies that come into the world
alone, babies that come in pairs, babies that
come in threes, and babies that sang in
quartets, in the second annual grand baby
exposition which begins at Harry Davis
Fifth Avenue Museum-Theater tomorrow
afternoon. The show promises to be one of
the most interesting that has ever been
held in this city, as the entire list
and the amount of money offered in
premiums is larger than ever before. Man
ager Davis offers S., 500 in cash prizes to the
little tots that carry off the honors in the
various classes, and aside from this the
merchants of Pittsburg and Allegheny have
volunteered to present some handsome gifts
to the infantile victors. Every child in the
contest will be presented with a patent
swinging rocker bv the management, and
everything that will add to their comfort
while on exhibition has been provided.
Every visitor at the museum will
be entitled to vote for his
favorite child in each class, a committee of
newspaper men constituting the judges in
the special classes. In addition to the baby
show there will he an excellent vaudeville
entertainment given by the Diamond and
Weston Speciality Company. Gray's mar
ionettes and Sol Stone, the lightning calcu-
lator, will be seen in the curio department.

The Biiou Theater,

The attraction at the Bijou this week Of
fers an enjoyable entertainment in the pro-
duction tor the first time here of the new
and laughable comedy entitled Tangled

as it introduces two new stars, but old favor
ties, who will make their first bow to Pitts
burg audiences as stellar lights in the dra-
matte armament. On the principle. prob
ably, that 1.-TWO heads are better than one"
Louis De Lange and Will s. Rising, two
clever artists, have combined forces as stars.
Both are well known to Pittsburg audiences
and are prime favorites, Louis De Lange for
his excellent work with Aronson's Casino
Company in clever impersonations of lead
ing comic opera roles, and VIII Rising as
graceful actor and the possessor OF a tenor
voice of sweet and sympathetic quality, who
will be pleasantly remembered for his sue
cess in Little Tycoon" Starlight" "safd
Pashs" and last season as leading light
comedian with Lolita. The comedy,

cation absence OF his better half. The alb
surdities ahd eIaggerations which run
through the plot are sustained by the COM

on all sorts of occasions. The action is
rapid, the scenes sharp, concise and varied
and the audience is kept in a roar from start
to finish. Preceding the comedy, a cur
tain-raiser, will be given the one-act trifle
entitled "Why?" from the pen of Burr McIn-

city, and this season the Colonel MoberIy of

The above are the theatrical attractions
for this week.
The theaters are winding up the last
threads of the season, but as has already
been remarked here the last days of the
drama before summer puts quietus upon
things theatrical promise to be rather more
brilliant than usual. The advent of two new
plays and such a bright particular star as
Julia Marlowe so late as this is as unusual as
1t is welcome.
There will be several changes in the man
agement of the local theaters Colonel Sam
Dawson, who has been identified with the
Bijou Theater for three, seasons, goes to a
higher place, and hasn't got to die to get
there, either. The fact is, he goes to Brook
Ign, which is near enough New York to be a
sort of ante-room to the actors heaven, to
manage the Lee Avenue Academy, an
important theater and a popular one.
Colonel Dawson will do for the Lee Avenue
Academy what he has done for the Bijou;
manage the front of the house, look after
the press, the advertising, ana to some ex-

successful at the Academy as he has been at
the Biou he will soon and certainly win
further promotion. The public does not see
much of such men as Colonel Dawson; the
business manager of theater is to a great
extent out of sight. If he is good man in
his place, the house prospers, the audience
Is comfortable, the newspapers are
friendly and actors and managers speak
of il as "a gold minen Without
asserting that Colonel Dawson is q paragon,
/ think it is only fair to say that he has
done great deal to advance the fortunes of
the Biiou Theater. and may be relied upon
TO make positive impression wherever he
goes. He has dogged determination, indus
try and shrewdness as his sails, and they
ought to carry him into port any time.
Those who have seen most of him and his
work, of whom am one, can heartily wish
him well, with small doubt OF his ultimate
success in metropolitan circles, where his
ambition is set.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 81, 1892.

ONE of the worst features of
political life in Hawaii is the con-
slant emergence of the race idea.
Appeals to it in one form or
another are made twenty times a
day, and, with a few rare excep-
tions, none of the foreign members
of the House have the courage to
ignore the color line. The bill in
regard to school-teachers, which
has just passed its second reading,
is an illustration of the feeling of
jealousy of the foreigner which
comes to the surface on every pos
sible occasion. We believe fully
in the principle of employing Ha-
waiians in the public schools,
whenever it is feasible, and will be
only too glad to see the places of
incapable or unworthy foreigners
filled by most deserving sons of
the soil. The principle is one,
however, which the Board bears
constantly in mind, making appli-
cation of it whenever possible; and
the attempt to limit their choice
in the lower grades t. kamaainas
only is, in the last degree, inexpe-
dent and absurd.

THE PANAMA SCANDAL.

The news from France in regard
to the Panama scandal is somewhat
disquieting and seems to indicate
the approach of political crisis.
With every fresh day fresh discov-
cries are made, drawing new indi-
viduals into the great web of fraud
which the Canal Co. seems to have
woven around newspapers, public
officials, and members of the
Chamber. The venality of the
Paris press is we'll known and moth
ing surprises about their dishonest
collision except the smallness of
the brides which were accepted.
The idea was generally entertained
that de Lesseps himself was not
implicated in any of the dishonor-
able transactions of the company,
but tits now stated that he is to
be prosecuted as well as one of his
sons. Admirers of the famous
engineer everywhere will hope that
his fame may be cleared from every
imputation of a stain, as was that
of General Grant, on a similar
occasion.
The crisis in French politics is
due in q large measure not Sc
much to the Panama scandal a!
to the alarming growth of socia
discomfort, which has found ex
preston, of late, in an increasing
number of outrages. It would 81
a mistake to infer that the bod,
of the French people were infecte'
with the poison of crazy socia
theories. Such is by no mean
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1892-12-31

the case. The French bourgeoisie
is industrious, prudent and pros
porous, and can muster as much
common sense per capita as the
middle class OF any country in
Europe. 1t is Paris which is the
centre of anarchistic agitation as
it has been of every revolutionary
movement since 1899, and the act
ivity of these elements is simply
fresh illustration Of the unhealthy
predominance of the capital in
French politics. The republic in
France is considered stronger and
safer than it has ever been before,
and we do not believe that
it is seriously imperilled by
the present emergency. The
real issue there as elsewhere is no
longer between the Republic and
the Monarchy, but between the
Fourth estate" and the classes
above it. Socialists are very in
different to the form of govern
ment. What they are interested
in is the reorganization of society,
and the irrepressible conflict of the
future will be waged about the
latter only. The elements of this
conflict are immanent in the indus
trial conditions of the age, and are
little affected by forms of govern
ment. Paris is the barometer of
Europe, and registers before Ber-
lin or St. Petersburgh or London
the indications of the coming
storm. Bub this exhausts its
function, and those who know the
French character do not believe
that the nation stands as good a
chance to weather the gale as Ger
many or England.
