Keith's Bill Next Week.

II II be true that the public are the
best critics, then ''The Girl Left Behind
Me" which will be seen at Keith's Opera
House all next week, has nothing to
complain OF, as to the reception with
Of the Atlantic. For two seasons Ii
packed the principal thester i'm New
York City and is now playing to euor-
nous business in London, England. In
fact. everywhere this play has been pre-
sented II has been received with open armr.
The secret OF its success Is undoubtedly
due TO the fact that II appeals to all
classes OF society, and while II is war
play II contains none OF those noisy feat
ures which often keep people away from
pl ays of that character.

Brought to Light From Its Resting
Place in Paris for Second Time.

Brought to Light From Its Resting
Place In Paris for Second Time.
Among the tombs which were violated
during the French Revolution was that OF
Richelieu, in the Church of the Sorbonne
The rest OF the remains of the famous
Cardinal were scattered TO the four winds,
but the head was recovered, and was con-
cealed by halter named Cheval.
After the turmoil of the revolution
had subsided, Cheval, fearing trouble on
account of his theft, confided the skull
to the Able Armez, in whose family he
that year the head of the Cardinal was
solemnly reinterred in the original tomb,
opened for the occasion in the presence
O. NJ. Duruy, Minister of Public Instruc-
ton; Mgrs. Darboy, Maret and Perraud
and OF Maurice Cottier, member of the
Upper Council OF the Fine Arts, who
made a sketch OF the skull.
"The University and the Academy"
said NJ. Duruy on this occasion, "perform
. flial duty in joining their homage at
the foot of this tomb, which will never
again be disturbed"
NJ Duruy was mistaken. The tomb OF
Richelieu has again been dist urbed. 1t
was opened in the presence Of the French
Minister of Foreign Affairs, M. Hanotaux,
historian of the Cardinal, and the aIcai-
tect Of the Sorbonne, nj. Nenot, this ex-
humation having been rendered necessary
by the work now in progress on the old
church.
OF the head OF Richelieu the face alone
survives. The occiput has disappeared. The
expression of the countenance is strik-
ing, or the classical type of the great car
dinal is there in admirable preservation.
Only one thing could occasion dou 1T
OF its authenticity, namely, the absence of
that famous chin beard of which his
tory speaks and which all the painters
have depicted.
But even this deficiency may, on the
contrary, be taken as proof OF genuine
ness, for in the painting OF Phillip de
Champagne, representing Richelieu on
his deaf hbed, the dying man wears nett her

taee Of thi, kind offer II it should come

tage of this kind offer II 1t should come
TO the worst.
Thus the day passed in suspense until
the m ddle OF the afternoon, when peace
counscis vevailed. They first proposed
that we IL nish several theatricals, which
we at once declined TO do. Then they
proposed that wc rebuild the dixie that
had broken. AS this would make 1t ap-
pear thatwe were instrumental In its Civ
ing way we could not consent TO this.
We said we were In favor OF helping
along enterprises for the pubic good,
and would bear one-half the cost OF re-
pairing the damaged dixie. This seemed
TO be satisfactory, together with the i'm
piled understanding that we would not
pu the matter in the future. There 10
considerable
HOSTILE TALK IN THE STREETS
and we cannot tell what the future has
In store. Some OF. our men heard the
Sz-chuen riots discussed among the crowd
waiting 10 attack us on the morning OF
the 18th.
One lesson we have learned Is that our
remaining here peacefully depends more
on the good-wi i'll OF the people than OF
any official protection we can expect at
present. The military magistrate, q
hsieh-ai. made no attempt and the civil
magistrate no serious attempt 10 help us.
From all We can learn there 10 grave
reason to doubt the civil magistrates
ability, even IL he were so inclined, 10
protect us. II we are correctly Informed,
the force of armed men TO do mis- bidding
can be counted on the fingers OF one
hand. Does this not show, as far as Lin
Ching Cho Is concerned, at least, that
the imperial promise of protection 10 for-
eigners in the interior is worth no more
than the paper on which 1t is written.
Even il ii be taken for granted that 1t 10
made in good faith, which is open to
serious doubt, no adequate preparation
is made for the fulfilling OF this
promise.
How long are the civilized nations OF
the world going TO treat this sham gov
ernment as reality? The missionaries
located at Ling Ching are Rev. franklin
NJ. Chaplin and wits OF Keene, n. H.,
Rev. Henry p. Perkins and wife OF Ware,
Mass, Dr. Edward b. Wagner. M. d., OF
Ann Arbor, Mich. The medical depart
ment OF the work Is of great and grow

Questioned about his mishap at Lowell,
he replied: at is true that while adjust
ing the neck OF the balloon i was over
come by the escaping water gas and hung
above tho basket for about an hour. In
some manner one OF the ropes got around
my neck and Sullivan, the Lowell News
man, and n local doctor, becoming fright
ened, began to pull upon the first rope
that came handy, which happened to be
the one that was about my neck. The
rope cut into the skin and / began to
bleed, and doubtless looked as IL my
throat was cut. After j regained con-
sciousness pulled the rope which opened
the valve TO let the gas escape and the
balloon gradually reached terra frma.
Before i was aware of 1t, my companions
both jumped cut of the basket and that
sent me scooling up into the air about
1000 feet. AS soon as the two frightened
men struck the earth they knelt down
and with arms clasped about each others
neck, offered prayer to heaven and
thanked God for their miraculous escape.
They then went to the nearest stable
and hired a horse, and when they got
ready TO return they forgot where they
had obtained the turnout. Give me men,
give me men, but no babies, when make
another ascension" said the veteran as
he shook his head at the thought OF the
Lowell episode.
