FOEO OF TIE MELOpRAMATIo.

Dickens Work. Pi~atit,lly Spfinklsd
with Situations Suitable for stage.
1t is curious what a penchant Dickens
had for certain melodramatics situations,
which seemed to his fancy SO telling
that he repeated and reproduced them
many times over. He had lively dra-
matte turn, says q writer In the Gen
tlemens Magazine, and always
thought would have had extraordinary
success as q dramatist. l once asked
him why he had not taken up this
the excuse-it was long ago, many
years before his death-that he had not
time, taste OF patience. The real rea-
son, no doubt, was that he could not
work without expanding, and eculd not
"carve heads upon cherry stone" A
literary friend, who has his boz" at
his fingers ends, has with great acute
ness pointed out to me that Nicholas
Nickleby was q genuine "Adelphi walk
ing gentleman" his manner, heroic
bursts, protection OF his sister, beard
ing of;Ralph, etc, were all elements in
the Adelphi melodrama. Ralph was .
regular stage villain That his works
are all dramatic and conceived in the
true spirit of the stage is plain from
the vast list of adaptations. Each story
has been adapted again and again, and
will bear the process admirably.
One method for winding up his plot,
TO which he was excessively partial, was
the unmasking Of the villain owing to
the betrayal of some confederate. The
parties are generally brought together
in room by the more virtuous mem
bers; the confederate then emer9es
from his concealment and tells a long
story of villainy. We have this denoue.
ment first in SOLVER Twist" where
Monks makes his revelations. In
"Nickleby" Ralph is confronted with
the man Snawley and Squeers. In the
''Old Curiosity Shop" Quilp is similarly
exposed. In "Barnaby Rudge," Hare
dale forces bis herditary enemy to
make revelations. In ''Chuzzlewit," :"
Jonas is confronted with another be-
trayer. In "Copperfeld." Uriah Heep
is denounced and exposed by Mr.. Mi
Icawber. In BLEAK House." Lady Ded-
lock is similarly tracked. In nearly all
the cases the guilty person goes oS
and commits suicide.

tion of the jury, Barney never once
volunteering a suggestion.
At half past ten in the morning the
regular jury was exhausted and spec
iaI venire was ordered and court ad-
jGurned until p. m.. to give the de-
putty sheriffs a chance to summons
them. Nearly every man called had
read the account of the killing in the
Eagle but County Attorney Davis did
not object unless they said they had
formed an opinion which would require
testimony to remove which some of
them did.
The special venire was exhausted by
4 o'clock and the clerk began 10 call

the defense will set up the plea of in

shot his wife and that If insane at all

The defense had a subpoena issued
for DR.. NanNuys of the insane asylum
as an expert. he having twice examined
Barney Gibbons and pronounced him
insane. The subpoena was, however,
returned with a certificate stating that
the doctor was sick and unable to at

He had Many Friends in Wichita Who viii
Mourn His Loss.

DR.. Houston Taylor writes from
New Orleans information that will be
received with sorrow by great many
business men OF Wichita. 1t is no less
than the death of Colonel Roland Day,
the brilliant and genial gentleman who
accompanied the New Orleans dele
cation to this city a few years ago
on the occasion Of the meeting of the
south and west grain congress, as cor
respondent of the Picayune. During
that visit Colonel Roland Day made

the people of the south and west that
was so manifest during the congress.
