LEARNED THE WRONG LANGUAGE.
Anguish Of q Russian Who Thought All
New Workers Talked German,

Anguish of q Russian who Thought All
| New Workers Talked German.
Horo is queer tale of metropoli-
tan life which is vouched for at the
College settlement in Rivington
street. 1t illustrates the cosmopcli-
tan character of the city and shows
IN singularly striking manner how
little we know of our neighbors on
the next street and how little they
know of us.
They have free kindergarten ut
the College settlement for the bene-
fit Of the poor of tho neighborhood.
One morning a woman appeared at
the door with little child and WAS
met by ono of the teachers. The
woman began talking volubly in an
unknown tongue and seemed much
surprised at not being ablo to under
stand tho teacher s replies.
what arc you?" asked the teach
or in English. Are you German
Dutch?"
The woman seemed very much
mystificd and thoroughly disheart-
ened. She only shook her head in q
dismayed sort of way and said moth
ing. Tho teacher sent for an inter-
pretcr.
DOCS not your little child under.
stand English?' asked tho inter-
prefer in German.
'English?' responded the woman
in tho same language. "What il
English? My little girl speaks thu
language of tho country, and so do
I, but the lady here docs not under
stand NO.
"Why, the lady speaks the Ian.
guage of the country" said tho in
terpreter. "She speaks English, and
that is tho language of the country"
Tho woman looked thoroughly disss
concerted and said nothing. The in.
torpreter asked her what her nation
atty was, for it was plain she was
not German. She spoke that Ian.
guago very poorly.
II am q Russian, she said, "and
l live in Hester street.
"How long have you been in tho
country?"
'Threo years.
And didn't you know that the
language of the country was Eng.
lish?"
"Ah," broke ont the poor woman,
with sob, when l came here |
only knew Russian, and l mado up
my mind I would got to be good
American and learn the language tho
Americans talk. When moved into
Hester street, I did not understand
one word they said there, but / sup.
posed they were Americans and
talked the language of Americans.
So set to work to learn it, and
have tried hard for three years, till
now can understand all that they
say in the tenement and at the
markets on the sidewalk, and they
can all understand mo whom talk.
Ard now today come hero and talk
to the lady here, and she doesn't I'M.
dorstand me, and don't understand
her All, it is too bad!'
Tho interpreter translated the con.
vorsation to the teacher, who was
moved to great pity. The woman
sat rocking herself back and forth,
the picture Of woe.
Madam said tho interpreter,
u am very sorry for you, but your
throe years Of effort have been
thrown away. Americans talk The
English language, and you have I'm.
fortunately lived in noighborhood
where German and Hebrew only arc
spoken. The language you have
learned is German, or at least that
sort Of mixed German and Hebrew
which they speak there. am very
sorry for you.
And tho woman, wiping her eyes
with hcr apron, took her little girl
by the hand and went sorrowfully
away.-New York Telegram.

Gluttons.
The old feudal lords of England
were the biggest hogs on earth.
Their life was madeu of the chase,
gluttony and drunkenness. The hab-
it of gluttony was handed down to
them. It came directly from Lucul-
lus and his imitators. There is no
doubt that Lucullus, held up before
US as the table saint, ate himself to
death. It was not only the quantity
Of the food he ate, but it's quality as
we'll, that put SO miserable an end to
him. Fielding proved many years
ago that there was a large amount of
fudge about Lucullus. On general
principles he was, from a culinary
point of view, a fraud.
A single supper, at which Cicero
and Pompey were guests, is said to
have cost him so, denari (about
$4,000, but he probably served his
guests a feast of barbecued SOW,
topped off with cherries. He was
excessively vain of his cherries, and,
as for his SOW, she was always served
high.-New York Press.

WARDE-JA M E 8.
They Will Open an Engagement Monday
Evening With "JuIius Caesar"

They Will Open an Engagement Monday
Evening With Julius Caesar" nl
BUTTE, April 19-The Warde-James
company will open their weeks engage
ment on Monday night with "Julius Cae-
sar.n in which Mr.. Warde will be Cassius
and Mr.. James, Br,eus. st
TIE Warde-James production of "Jul-
ius Caesar" and other Shakespearian
plays has given a great incentive to the
study of the master poet by the younger
generation and has done much to explain
doubtful points to the young student of
history. In this manner these great ac-
tors accomplish a great deal of good aside
from the amusement they afford their
audiences. Tho accuracy with which they
mount their plays is highly commendable
and the public's appreciation Is evidenced
by the large business the tragedians do
wherever they go.
All the scenery used in the Warde-
James production of Julius Caesar" is
manufactured at Mr.. Warde's storshouse
ia Brooklyn. The subjects were all sell
ected from the best authorities on Roman
antiquities, and the painting was executed
by tire clever metropolitan scenic artist,
Seymour ID. Parker.
The first act IS a facsimile of an ancient
Roman street aud gives an excellent view
of the Roman buildings on the adjacent
hills. The second act represents the gar
dens of Brutus' home. where the plot
against julius Caesars life was con-
cocted and decided upon. The third act
is a correct reproduction of the senate
chamber in the capitol at Rome and is
the most striking feature in the scenic
display. The succeeding scene displays
the famous forum at Rome. but is none
the less interesting as il shows the locality
of many historic events familiar to all
readers of ancient history.
This is succeeded by the tent of Brutus,
and here the artist has INDUCED in a novel
illusion in making the ghost of Caesar
appear to Brutus. The last act has no
other merits from a scenic standpoint
than that IL represents beautiful land
scapes correct in their character as de-
scribing the scene of the action.
