first of his name to gain prominence on the
stage. These three artists bear similar
characteristics in one way. Each has
added to his professional talents several ac-
mplishments: the first is a great student
of literature the second skilled in drawing
and the third a linguist of several attain
ments. All three appeal to the in
telIectual faculties Ia their particular
sphere. one with his glittering comedy
and tragic fire, one with the lovely SIM
plicity and affiuent grace Of his comedy and
the other with refined methods Of flippant
levity. There were three artists before
them who filled practically the same place
on the American stage. They were Edwin
Forrest, William Warren Sr. and George l..
Fox: Such triumvirate of actors at the
head add much to the refinement of our
stage and do much to elevate the social
standing and reputation Of the profession.

theater-gOeTs about two years ago. At that
tiEe many kind things were said IN the
press regarding her somewhat ambitious
effort ana predictions made that with con-
scientious study and hard work she might
reasonably expect to secure a prominent
position in the profession she had chosen.
1t seems that the advice then kindly given
her has been faithfully acted upon, and that
during her stay in the East she has devoted
all her time TO painstaking and hard study.

tested the kindest interest in her future
career. Since her connection with the Blue
Jeans" Company she has received many
hattering notices from the press IN the yarl-
Gus cities where they have appeared, and
she comes back to us with the reputation Of
a most promising actress. We expect in
her case generous welcome, as Californl-
ans are prOverbial for a quick recognition
of talent, especially in one native and TO the
manner born. Her letters indicate delight

A MVsiarv of fha Sea

From information given to the Ployer
on her recent visit to the Cocos Islands,
it appears that early this year, in Janu.
airy, the Italian bark, Luigi Rata, from
Batavia to Antwerp with copra, arrived
in a very leaky and unseaworthy condi
ton. The bark anchored, and those on
board were taking such steps as were
possible in so primitive a settlement as
the Coces to make her comparatively fit
for s,s, when a heavy northeast swell
set in and put her on q reef near her an
chorage and she shortly became a wreck.
The crew was a fairly large one, consist
ing of eighteen, all told, of various
nationalities, aud Nh. Ross, who gov.
erns the Cocos, soon found that his en-.
forced guests weie becoming a serious
nuisance. As the only means Of getting
rid of them, he proposed that they
should take his schooner, the J. G.
Ross, and return in her to Batavia, a
proposal that was very readily accepted.
The j. G. Ross was, or is, very we'll
found vessel. She has a tonnage of
IT'S, is classed A at Lloyds, and once
accomplished the voyage from the COco'
to England, and as, added to this, she
was built in the Cocos, under the super
vision of Mr.. Ross, he was particularly
fond Of her. Neither the J. G.. Ross
nor her very varied crew has been seen
or heard of since.
A peculiar feature OF the affair is that,
though the Luiga Rata was a ship Of
700 or 1000 tons and had valuable car

discover her agents in the East or her

The Old Dutch Farmhouse.


The old farmhouse usually consists OF
kitchen, large living-room, a dairy,
two small bedrooms in the garret and
at the back Corning part of the main
building), the big COW stable with iti
huge loft, and a wide space in the
middle, where threshing and winnowing
are still done in primitive fashion. Hay
ricks with movable roofs on four poles,
various barns or sheds, aud an outside
kitchen called the clearinghouse"
where the rough work is done food
cooked for the cattle, etc.,, surround
the main building.
The "baking-house' is often used as
living-room in summer, aud is more
cheerful than the solemn apartment into
which the visitor is invariably ushered.
A wide chimney lined with tiles stretches
nearly across one side of this room; but
the open fire on the hearth has long ago
disappeared and given place to an ugly
stove. Quaint brass fire irons hang be.
hind it, and on either side is an arm.
chair, differing from its humber
brethren only in the possession OF
wooden arms. II there is baby in the
family it is likely to be reposing in a
cradle with green baize curtains as near
as possible to the fireplace, in defiance
of all laws of health. Two or three
large cupboards, sometimes handsomely
carved, always kept we'll polished, stand
against the whitewashed walls. One of
them generally has glass doors in the
upper part, and on its shelves the family
china-often of great value-is exposed
to view.
Sometimes, sentiment has provec
stronger than the love of money, and
the farmer has not parted with his family
possessions. In a corner OF the room
chintz curtain, or sometimes a double
door, shows where the big press is-au
institution Of pre-hyglenic times-whicn
to the peasant mind, has no incon.
venieuces whatever. In the middle OF
the room a table stands on a carpet, and,
as people take off their shoes at the door
and 20 about in their thick wooden
stockings, neither it nor the painted
floor ever show signs of mud. Another
table stands near one of the windows, Of
which there are two or three. The
linen blinds so closely meet the spotless
curtains, which are drawn stiffly across
the lower panes on two horizontal sticks,
that stray sunbeam can hardly make its
way into the room, even if it has been
able to struggle through the thick
branches of the clipt lime trees thai
adorn tie front of the house. On one ol
the tables a tray stands, with hospit-
able array of cups and saucers, teapot,
ETC., and is protected from the dust by
crochet or muslin cover. The huge
family Bible, with its big brass clasps,
has an honorable place, often on a stand
by itself. Rough wood cuts or cheap
prints, and group Of family photo
graphs, which do not hatter the origi-
nails, are hung on the wails.-National
