"IDYLs OF HI KING
The Shakespeare Class Present at .
Lecture by Hts Leader.

The Shakespeare Class Present at .
Lecture by Hts Leader.
Under the auspices of the Shakespeare
Club Miss Halleck gave an interesting talk
at the Carteret Club on T~ennyson's "IdyS
of the King" this morning, beginning at
eleven o'clock. The subject is one with
which she is thoroughly in sympathy, chosen
because of her close acquaintance with
and real interest in the creations of the mas
ter's mind. The characters of the Idyls, it
is true, existed in the early myths of legend
a1y English history, but under the spell OF
Tennyson's genius they take on an actual
presence, a modern interest, so that Elaine
and Enid, Geraint and Galahad, Guinevere
and Vivien, even Pelleas, Modred and the
minor figures in the scenes, are as much real
persons to the reader who has once made
their acquaintance as any flesh and blood
creatures whom he m know.
The proceeds of the lecture will be given
to the Children's Home. The Shakespeare
Club, of which the lecturer is the leader, is
one of the few really working literary classes
in the city. Believing that right interpreted
ton is the truest criticism, the members
study the plays by reading them aloud, as
signing the parts, and giving to the work
real study and thoughtful care.

The Blessings of McKinleyism.

Whatever may pe thought of the
effect of the Wilson bill upon indus
trial interests, certainly no claim can
be made that it should injuriously
affect shipments from the West to the
seabcard, a very large portion of
which, at all times, are made upon
account of foreign shipment. 1t
seems reasonable to hold that the
present state of European demand for
our commodities, particular y the nat
ural products of the open lands of the
West, must be influenced by the
effects of McKinleyism upon our mar
kets and not by any such uncertain
factor as the terms of q new tariff.
1t is, therefore, of some Importance to
note the fact, stated in r. 6. Dun IL
Co.'s weekly Review of Trade" that
the east-bound railroad tonnage for
February shows a decrease of 1872 per
cent, and the number of loaded cars
passing Indianapolis is 36 per cent.
less than for the same weeks last year.
Another indication of a kindred de-
scription, drawn from the same
source, is the rise in foreign exchange
rates and the expected shipments OF
gold abroad, due to the terrible de-
crease in our shipment of merchan-
disc to other countries.
THE NEWS has always insisted that
the Mckinley tariff was responsible
for the dreadful business conditions
which prevail, to an extent not gem
orally understood and appreciated.
The evidence of this is now becoming
SO irresistible that the idea is forcing
its way, even in the most conserva-
tive quarters. 1t is a mere common
sense proposition that no such thing
as a permanently one-sided market can
exist. Applied to private business, it
is so screamingly farcical that nobody
could speak of it seriously. The
amazing thing is that men OF the
brain calibre of Mckinley, Reed and
Sherman can assume its possibility as
applied to nations. We have hun
dreds of millions worth of goods that
we must sell every year, In Europe,
South America and wherever else we
can. If we think we a continue to
do this tor a succession of years With
out buying back, dollar for dollar,

Academy of Music.

There lave been few plays written in re-
cent years that can control the public for SO
long a time as Charles Hoyts "a Temper
ance Town. and the wonderful success of
this shows at the salne time what an instruc-
tive w Author Hoyt has on the Ameri-
can theatre goer, and how firm a claim he
has to being at the head of the most popular
school of the drama in the United States.
This most favored of Mr.. Hoyt's merry mar
ratives will be seen here at the Academy of
Music, on Monday night. the 26th inst, for
one week only. 1t comes stamped with an
approval given by Kenyon, and since rem
dered universal. It will be seen here imper-
sonated by the same ladies and gen
tlemen whose four months residence
in New York this season made
them favorites and friends, and with the
same careful attention to scenery and Access
series that caused the play TO be SO much adj
mired. Mr.. Hoyt, always taking as the prin-
cipal subject of his plays a live question of
the day, has directed his attention to what
he considers the pronibitory evil principally
prevalent in New England. While dealing
with a serious subject the author does it in
his best comedy vein, and while he makes a
great deal Of fun of the prohibition people,
he does not spare the rum crowd" In Sc
Letting the members of his company Mr..
Hoyt has shown the rare discrimination for
which he is famous and has placed upon his
stage just the right man and the right
woman for the place.
The New opera House.
At the Opera House next week will be
produced the beautiful picturesque Irish
comedy drama 'The Rambler from Clare, .
written by Dan Mccarthy. Mr.. Mccarthy
is the author of s'True Irish Hearts, Dear
Irish Boy 'Cruiskeen Lawn and several
other plays, but he considers the Rambler
his best effort. 1t is clean cut from start to
finish, not a thing is said or done that can
be objected to by the most refined people.
Mr.. Mccarthy does not hold the Irish up to
ridicule, but presents them in true life, Just
as thew are found in "Od Ireland. 'EfThe
Rambler from Clare" tells the trials of a
poor Irish lad, Tony Sullivan, who, trying
to right the wrongs of others, is prosecuted
by a scheming squire and his son. In the
end justice triumphs and Tony receives his
reward. The play abounds in real Irish
wit, and humorous songs and dances are in
PRODUCED. Mr.. Mccarthy composes all of
the songs he sings. He possesses a sweet,
strong voice, and renders his songs in his
own artistic way. He is one of the best reel
and Jig dancers on the stage.

down into the children's domain, rather to
the disadvantage of the small people, whose
eyes are SO bright and compilations so pure
that it seems unappreciative to deck them
out in costly and striking stuffs and modes
that distract the eye from their natural
beauties. Mothers of the most refined tastes
still hold to the fine flannels and pretty soft
wooden goods for their children, made and
trimmed in a suitably simple fashion, de-
ferring the purple and fine linen to a later
period. Soft. bright plaids are always APP
propriate and youthful, while nuns yelling,
cashmere and fine French serge in delicate
colors are quite dainty enough for festive
occasions. In white or cream the latter
goods wash well and so may be kept i'm
maculate, while silken fabrics once injured
are ruined forever. 1t is strange, but there
are mothers who will not understand that
a clean print frock is in better taste than
soiled fnery.
A charming and at the same time simple
cloak for a little child is made of blue and
white striped stuff. 1t is gathered in at the
neck, from which it falls in full folds all
around. The shoulders are covered with u
wide plated pelerine, pointed back and
front. The full sleeves have a pointed
turned back cuff. The trimming consists
of bands of swans down, which form a
pointed trimming around the lower part of
the coat, border the pelerine and cuffs and
~encircle the neck.

Sprague-Smith at what might be called a
a t'private view of this same lecture in New
York a few weeks ago, without the pictures,
and although it then impressed me very
favorably, l would not lave believed that an
intelligent use of the stereopticon could add
to much. There has not been a lecturer in
this city this winter to approach Professor
Smith in his delivery, which is out of the
reach of criticism. Every word is distinctly
audible in every part of the hall, yet he does
not raise his voice unduly, and give no effect
of monctony., All nall, the lecture was an
undisputed success, and makes many hope
that the rumors heard of Professor Smiths
temperance in this city may be founded OF
fact.
