also an AK of Spanish design or shape,
with the broad blade common 300

been carefully wrapped in cloth which
had long since disappeared, as had also
the wooden handle; but the texture Of
the cloth was still TO be seen on the

copper button, similar to those used by
the Spanish .gallants,. and various
articles common to the Spanish Of long

An actor Of mediocre ability can take the
emotional roles il he has good voice and
trick or two OF the eyes. But it takes a
man with leisure intellect and peculiar
temperament to be comedian. Mr.. Chas,
Unoerhill, who will impersonate comic
characters ut the Crete chautauqua in July
has devoted himself entirely TO the SYM
pathetic study OF the delicate. classic CON-
edy of Shakespeare. and the homely
human comedy OF Charles Dickens He lie
nithout a rival as an impersonator OF the
roles OF Falstaff. Maloalio, Picwick and
Pecksnff. The sense Of comedy is not a
small thing, and it needs to be cultivated
IL is a matter Of regret that so little is
known Of Shakespeare's comedies Even
Shakesperian scholars neglect them. The
The greater part Of the cultured world has
yet TO discover the SUMMER side of the mas
ter's genius. There will be nothing more
attractive at the Chautauqua assembly
