Edwin Booth.

When the life work OF Edwin Booth
ended the English speaking stage lost q
really great actor. Opinions will differ
as to his greatest achievement in the
whole range OF fine characters imper-
sonated by him. With regard to some
OF his best it will be said that no was
not the strongest this generation has
seen.
Nevertheless he pleased as many cul-
tivated, critical audiences as any man
who ever trod the boards. He did
everything studiously, intelligently, con-
scientiously and with finished effect
Nobody could deny to his imperson-
ations artistic finish OF the highest
order. and it was to this quality that his
success and fame were largely due.
Other actors OF his time had more force
and FIRE, endowments OF nature; not one
had more, few had so much, OF the win
ming grace and polish.
He was all his life long a student OF
his roles and OF all that could convey to
him anything of their meaning. This
implies wide range Of close reading,
in which Mr.. Booth found unwearying
delight. Those who sat before him
realized that scholar and master of
his profession was engaging their atten-
ton.

The prompt action Of Messrs, Letter
and Armour in going to the support of
the Illinois Trust and Savings Bank
should have restored promptly any
lack Of confidence in that institution,
While the bank was paying out money
as fast as it could be handed out each OF
these rich men offered to guarantee
every dollar Of tho banks indebted
ness.
Nj. Armour's action was especially
striking. He not only offered Armour
& Co.'s guarantee to every depositor
but expressed his Willingness to pay on
demand any depositor who preferred
the money. To two persons, women,
who wanted their money, he handed
out the shining gold. The rest OF the
crowd did the sensible thing and al
lowed their money to remain in the safe
place.
Here may be seen one of tho uses OF
rich men. 1t may be that tho prompt
action OF these men Of known wealth
will set the panic-stricken to thinking
on the folly and danger of making trou.
bio where no real cause Of trouble ex-
lists.
