Ii Farce-Comedy to Pass.

tainment has had its day, not that
the style is Objectionable, for GER
tainly the light and catchy features
are pleasing to many theater-goers,
even if others regard them as SAVIOR,
ing OF the variety stage. The trouble
lies In the fact that it is overdoue.
The number of farce-comedies that
started out last season was something
over hundred; for the coming sen
son. from present appearances, this
number will be greatly exceeded 1t
may be remembered that a great
many Of these plays came to grief;
and in view OF the fact of the effects
OF the present business depression. it
Is no more than probable to expect
that many farce comedy com binations
will meet with q similar fate. The

OF them may meet with disaster.

Right View of Lite.

Let none prevail with us to think
that there is any period OF life. or any
sphere OF our activity. or any hour of
rest, which can escape the range of
right and wrong and be secluded
from the eyes of God. Nothing can
be more offensive to a good mind
than the eagerness to claim for some
portion OF our time, kind of holiday
escape from the presence OF duty and
the conservation of pure affections; to
thrust off all noble thoughts and sa-
cred influences into the most neg
lected corner of existence, and to
drive away religion, as if it were a
haggard necromancer, that must
sometimes come, instead of a guar
dian angel that should never be let
go. 1t were shameful to sanction the
low-minded sentiment which so often
says of early life that it is the time
for enjoyment, and makes this an ex-
cuse for dispensing with everything
else. Under such guidance life
would have no secret unity; its first
volume would be jest book; its sec
ond, a table OF interest, and it's last
a mixture of the satire and the litur-
gy.
can form no more odious image
OF human life than youth of levity
aud pleasure followed by maturity
and age of severity and pietism.
Both sights in this succession are
alike deplorable; young soul with
out wonder. reverence. tenderness
and inspiration; with superficial
mirth and deep indifference, stand
ing on the threshold of Iife's awful
temple, with easy smile and without
uncovered head, or Bonded knee, or
breathless, listening! Is that the
time, do you say, for enjoyment?
Yes; and for enthusiasm, for convic-
tion, for depths of affection and de-
vOtedness of will. And il there be
40 tints of Heaven in that morning
Of life, it will be in vain to seek
them in the staring light OF the later
noon.
Home.
There is a vast difference between
& house and home The house is
but the building and the furniture
the outward shelter and the gather
ing place of the household. The
home includes the kindly family az
lection, the thoughtful care and
ready sympathy and mutual con-
tdence and trust of the members. A
true home breathes the atmosphere
OF love. A child should be made TO
feel that his home is indeed a home
the happiest place in the world to
him-not merely an outward shelter
and resting place. but a center of en-
loyment sanctitled and purified by
love, the thought and remembrance
of which shall be the safeguard of
his life as he goes forth to the world.

Missed Their Cue.

E D. Price says that the late John
Mccullough always entertained the
friendliest feeling for 'supers" who
appeared in his support He never
forgot that he had been one himself,
and took much pride in rehearsing
them. However, on one occasion
they spoiled one Of his best scenes.
He hal been travelling all day and
reached the town where they were to
play that evening rather late in the
afternoon. Mccullough, feeling very
tired, sent his stage manager to train
the supers, who had been engaged for
the performance, and give them the
proper cues for their entrances and
exits The play was 1.-THE Gladi-
ator." and everything went smoothly
until the great scene in the arena.
Mccullough was in good form, and
had never acted better. He had
raised the audience to the highest
pitch of enthusiasm, and his magnlfl-
cent voice had just uttered the words:
'"Romans, will We be slaves?" when
the supers forgot their cue. Instead
OF answering in a negative manner.
they shouted with appalling unani-
nifty: 1--WE will, we will" McCul-
Tough stopped for a moment, and,
glaring at them, muttered: Cd
you, you WON'T" The noble Romans
looked at each other in dismay: but
one or two of them, plucking courage,
piped in a shrill voice: "We won't
we won't"

MIR. CLEVELAND AN AMERICAN
CITIZEN


Senator Jones warned the country on
Wednesday that there was the same
danger Of the United States Congress
falling under Mr.. Clevelands dictation
and control as there had been Of the
Roman Senate becoming the instrument
for recording the viii Of Rome's chief
magistrate. Mr.. Pugh also declared that
the failure Of the compromise on account
of Mr.. Cleveland's opposition 10 it was
a case OF improper and unlawful inter
ference by the President with the province
OF Congress.
All such talk is stuff and nonsense.
There is no sort OF danger that Mr. Cleve-
land viii attempt the part of an autocrat;
and, II ne did, that same universal popu-
lar endorsement which he now holds so
firmly would at once turn on him and
hurl him from his place.
So far as he affected the compromise
proposition, he did nothing more than TO
express his opinion concerning It, and that
he has as much right to do as any other
American citizen has, He does not lose
any of his rights as an American citizen
because the people Of the country think
well enough Of him TO elevate him TO the
chair Of their chief magistrate. He simply
did what all other Americans who were
opposed TO the compromise have a right
TO do. He declared that in his opinion
1t was unwise TO compromise. and that
the true interests OF the United States
demanded the uncomfortable repeal Of
the act Mr.. Cleveland had a perfect
right TO do this, and there is nothing
in the presidential office inconsistent with
II.

put upon the conduct OF Commodore

Mello is that he was drunk. It Is neon

duty in such a case. There was hardly
