Mr.. Edward Fabian's recital OF Ten
nyson's Maud yesterday afternoon at
the Blanchard hall wac one of the gems
OF rhetorical art, as was also his decls-
nation OF Longfellow's Daybreak. Mr..
FABIAN adds to very manly person aud
cignifled bearing, a most marvelously
resonant voice of tbs type termed basso-
cantanta, having the sweetness OF the
baritone and the depth of bass. His
wonderful command OF his voice was
never 80 apparent as in his rendition of
Daybreak. The nearest approach to
MIN We have ever beard was Walter
Montgomery's reciting The Execution
OF Montrozo, by Aytoun, and even that

Mr.. Fabian is one of the worlds great
elocuticnists, and it will be long time
before we shall listen to his like again.

The administrator points out that the

black snake, which is very fierce. The
natives declare that whenever a man
goes near one it rushes at him, uttering
sounds which they describe as resem-
bling whistle.
Shortly before was at the govern

gregor, zone Of these reptiles attacked
the government agent, but was killed
before 1t did any harm. A little while
before boy of fourteen years was in
the bush near the station when one Of
these snakes made a rush at him with
the usual peculiar whistling sound. The
boy thought the noise emanated from
some cockatoos in tree, and began to
look for them. He did not discover his
mistake until he received bite from
the reptile, from which he died in little
while in great agony"

SOME USEFUL HINTS.

1t pays to buy good stockings.
Fine stage md dress stockings are
French made.
The Spanish were among the first to
knit fine stockings.
White silk stockings go with the bridal
slippers, but nowhere else.
Silk stockings should be cleaned like
other silk goods, and not washed.
In their native land. Scotch and Irish
girls seldom wear stockings, except upon
dress occasions.
Queen Elizabeth. in 1860. was the first
woman in England to wear knitted silk
stockings.
Use a little OK gall and no alkali In
washing black stockings. Dry them
quickly in the house.
1t was doubtless of the stocking that II
was first said: "A stitch I'm time saves
nine"-it might have said many times
nine.
That was an unkind old fashion which
once decreed that the old sister should
dance in green stockings at the wedding
of her younger sister.
Do not mend a hole in a stocking by
drawing 1t together: the strain upon the
surrounding fabric soon makes the rent
worse than at first

1t Doesn't Always Pay TO Have Too Much

From the Chicago Tribune.
A dudish- looking partyina long-tailed
overcoat and turned-up trousers was
picking his way gingerly over a muddy
downtown crossing the other afternoon
when a rakish-looking party in rain
coat and rubber boots caught sight Of
him.
The spectacle of live walking dude
appeals irresistably to the average
mans sense of the ludicrous, and the
rakish-looking citizen, initiating the
gait and general bearing of the other
stalked along solemnly by his side, a
block or two, in apparent unconscious
nes of the fact that he was creating a
sensation and attracting the amused at
tention Of everybody on the sidewalk.
In going over another muddy crossing
the rakish-lookng party, as If by acci-
dent, tripped the dude. The latter mar
rowly escaped fall, and as he recov-
cred himself he swung his right 1t
landed squarely on the jaw, and his tor
mentor went down as If pile driver
had struck him.

Is not absolutely necessary Mr.. Drew
usually prepares and commits his
entr'acte effoits. De Wolf Hopper has
been known to speak, but he very much
prefers to give a comic recitation, and
without in the least disparaging his
ability as speaker his audience would
good deal rather hear his stories.
Francis Wilson is at sea before the cur
tain, though he has at times expressed
some loudly applauded sentiments
there. Henry Irving probably makes
the best speech of any of the English
actors we have seen in this country
Miss Terry does nothing but bow be-
fore the curtain. Mr.. Willard makes a
very good speech and Mr.. Sothern a
fair one. Mr.. Kendall speaks briefly
but with good deal of self-possession.
His wife talks better in the newspapers
than she does from the stage, and more
often, too. Very few of our American
actresses attempt much In the way of
speechmaking. They prefer being seen
to being heard-and wisely.

Lewis, at Bangor. The member once

Rev. Mostyn Hughes, of Meath, one of
the most promising of the younger
Methodist preachers, was at one time
clerk to Lloyd George, M. p, at Cric-
cieth. Mr.. Hughes has recently received
a unanimous call from a fiourishing
church in Cardigan.
Richard Thomas, chairman of the d.
rectors of the little Warrior Coal COM
pany, Carbondale, Illinois, is a native
of Baglan, near Briton Ferry. He Is
successful patentee, and was for some
years manager of the Glyncorrwg col
leries before he emigrated to the far
west. His son has succeeded him in the
management of the colliery.
Dean Stanley used to attribute what
ever of imagination, fancy, and poetry
his nature possessed, to the fact that he
was descended from Celtic stock. His
mothers people were old Anglesey
folks.
Some men travel far to meet their
fate. j. W. Roberts, Of Abergele, fought
his way through the Egyptian cam
paign, and in India met and married
his wife, who is the daughter of the late
owen Jones, of Pensarn. His brother,
E. NJ. Roberts, has just been appointed
manager Of the engineering department
Of the South Carolina railway.
The Lloyds, of Bronwydd, are one of
the Oldest families in Cardiganshire. An
old tradition as to the family says that
cursed is the Lloyd who evicts Bron-
wydd tenant, and tenancy on the
Brondwydd estate is therefore looked
upon as equivalent to freehold.
AS criterion of personal popularity
the Princess of Wales may we'll rest
upon the knowledge that 100000 of her
portraits were sold in England last
year.
The great Welsh ministerial scandal
is the greatest farce of the genera
ton. G. ]. Williams is the pastor of a
small Congregational church at Bryn-
teg, Wrexham, n. W., and is spending
$4,000 in order to obtain $500 damages
for an alleged libel. His wife sold beer
during his residence in Pont-y-Pridd, he
has been adjudged bankrupt, has
jumped from the Baptist to the Congre-
gational community and vice versa,
and sat on the fence to await opportun-
tiles, yet he is surprised that there Is
any gfound for an opinion to be passed
upon his character as minister of the
gospel. Welsh weeklies, strangely
enough, devote eight columns to report
ing the case, which has been heard
three times over
