sother preachers. He was religious seer

like kemble, Cooke aud Macready. He
discarded the old traditions of the stage
and acted as Napoleon made war. contrary
to the canons of his art. Is there any
thing more inexplicabie in Shakespeare,
who drew the great characters which Kean
so nobly rendered. than in Kean himself?
After youth of miserable poverty and
vicious training. which made this marvel
whose education beyond the rudiments
was nothing bounded to the top of his art
as the greatest genius known to the annals
OF the English stage.
The explanation of Bonaparte is not
Brienne, for to the same school went
Bouriennne, a far more promising gradu-
ate. who was content to be Napoleon's
private secretary. The explanation of
Shakespeare does not lie in his education,
large or small; the explanation of Kean
does not lie in his birth or tho want of it,
in his education or the want of it, in his
virtue or the want Of it, in his applica-
ton or the want of it. The explanation Of
both Shakespeare, the playwright, and
Kean, the actor. lies in Dryden's lines:
Genius does what it must; talent does
what it can" If we bear this in mind,
nobody but q shallow critic and super
fetal scholar need speculate "Who was

did Kean without culture, without study,
without long and persistent training be-
come Shakspeare's most splendid histrl-
onic interpreter?

matters in Kitsap county, although he ad-
m.tted that some Of the districts are necessarily
weak in number Of scholars on account OF the
arsely-sestled condition of the eounty. There
are at present 1,524 census students In the
county, and tho number OF districts amount to
thirteen, OF which eleven have been added In
the last two years. The school buildings are
also improving In quality. and two good two
story schoolhouses have been built within the
last eighteen months, one ut Charleston and one
near Sidney. Besides these q number of smaller
ones have been built In the outlying districts
During the last few weeks the heavy snow has
interfered greatly with the attendance, and
most OF the schools have been closed. Those
which attempted to keep open gained but little.

of forty pupils. was reduced to only five for sew

i ever saw. I never knew another man who
