THE LIMO DISSOLVED

To those who have no personal inter-
estS in the game which the head masters
III politics play, and are thus enabled to
watch the play Of the game. the alter
nate gaining ard losing of advantage,
the attacks and defenses, the progress
of the game in which those masters of
political fnesse, Senators Hill, Brce
and German, have been engaged for
the last three years is one of ell
tertainment mingled with somewhat of
instruction.
The stake is the presidency of these
United States. The play began in 1888.
MIR, Cleveland had served one term. He
had disappointed the politicians, the
spoilsmen and it was thought he might
be defeated for denomination. He had
committed an act of supreme tactical
folly in the judgment Of the men who
play politics as game. He had, in the
middle of his term, when everything
was moving smoothly. with a safe as
surance of the supremacy Of his party,
rashly committed the party to an as
sault on privilege long ash strongly en-
trenched in power 1t was tactical
blunder of course, but it as the right
thing to do, if 1t was tare.riy done.
1t gave him tbs pomiE: lon, and aided
in giving hia end his party defeat.

What part in that defeat German bore,
how far the charge against Hill Of dis
loyalty was true, it is not part OF our
purpose to discuss. That both disliked
him and feared his popularity is true.
and that both felt that his defeat would
betheir gain ultimately.is probably judg-
ing men by ordinarily accepted rules.
That man thus defeated could be cam
dldate again was against all the canOns
of politics. Then the play for the success
sion in '92 began in earnest. The junto
was formed. They operated in COM
mon. but each for his own welfare an d
ultimate success over the other. Cor
man, shrewd, secretive, sagacious; Hill.
impetuous. audacious; Brice, apt in re.
sources and skilled in manipulation,
each tempting the other to a miSplay
while seeming to play in cooperation.
trusting the other no farther than was
needed, and diStrustful at all times even
in trusting, they presented to the in
different onlooker an interesting spec
tacle.
Hill was the fayorite of his state, and
his was conceded to be the pivotal state
both in the convention aud the election.
German. crafty, with Brice for under
study, played on HIPS vanity, and sug-
gestsd his fatal tour of the Southern
states. That reduced Hill'S strength
practically to New York. Then in the
states where Cleveland was strong, Cor
man spread destinations of Cleveland's
recreancy to the cause he had com.
mtted the party to and the sacrifice Of
German in cold blood for aiding him.
All this scheming failed. The ground
swell could not be resisted. New York
stood Loyalty by Hill, but German,
sensing the futility of effort, silently
stole away from Chicago.
Then came again, with Cleveland's
reelection. the tariff questio to the
forefront. And with it came the breach
that has ended in the dissolution of the
junto. German, proteclionist with large
protected interests, schemed for his per-
sonal gain. Hill. Indifferent to money
making, anxious to be on the strong
side, alert to discover it and eager for
opportunity to reinState himself, soon
caught the tremendous tide which was
sweeping the party along the stream OF
free trade. While German dallied with
the sugar and coal and iron trusts and
interests. Hill threw himself into the
ranks of the ref0rmers with zeal. Cor
man was held by his entanglements
with privilege. and preferred to retain
the benefits he shared to espousing the
cause Of his party. Hill cast to the
winds all such considerations and de.
manded the fulfillment of the pledges
of the party. Tentatively at first, but
unreservedly now that the set of the
current is unmistakable, Hill FORCES to
the front as the bold, courageous, auda-
cious opponent of German and the
leader of the progressive element. On
the whole, cow that the game has been
played nearly 10 its end, we incline TO
think that fill has the best of it, and
German and Brice have decidedly the
worst.

AT THE THEATERS.
MetropoIitan--ss Wang.o

wang" with its scintillating music,
brilliant costuming and gorgeous seem
ery, has been witnessed in St. Paul
several times before, but a good-siZed
audience witnessed the first perform
ance of weeks engagement at the
Metropolitan last night. The produc-
duction is complete and welI-balanced
in the hands Of the present company.
No part of its possibilities for ridicu-
lous operate stage business is over
looked. Albert Hart, as Wang, is
agile as contortiohist, and sings ex'
ceedingIy we'll in several keys. He
keeps eternally at work, and won
plenty of applause for really clever
features. Virginia Earl, as Crown
Prince Mataya. is just as cut. and
vimful in action as she ia handsome
in looks. In the first act she won
several recalls for her piquant
manner of singing 1.-The Shady Nook
song. Her handling Of the laughing
sarcasm of the lines was admirable.
Miss Earl is most pleasing IN the role.
John A. Parks. as the French lieuten-
ant, acquits himself to fair advantage
as singer, while Misses Florence
Drake, as Marie, and Josephine STAN
ton. as Gillette, also render their parts
in pleasing and acceptable manner.
Momentary gems of the piece are the
interpretations of the professor of ct
iQuette, Camm Mauyel, and the messen-
ger, Rose A. KRONE. Frank Casey is
fat and funny elephant keeper, and Of
like color but smaller callber are the
shu filing pickaninnies who attend on
Wang Marion Singer is admirably
fitted for the role of Widow Fremousse,
and was quite enjoyable in her rendition
of the part. 1t is calculated to have no
dull moments in wang" and it can
fairly be said there are no details neg
lected by principals or chorus, guards
or ambassadors, to carry out the plan of
the opera in its perfection. All the
week. with Wednesday and Saturday

Grand-"Cleopatra.'
Lillian Lewis and company began a
weeks engagement at the Grand last
night in new version OF "Cleopatra,"
with all necessary calcium and stage
effects. Miss Lewis certainly makes |

thoroughly original conception of the |
role, and it was so original that the au-
dience enjoyed it hugely. The play is
we'll staged, the scenery very pretty.
The dancing was good, as was Miss |
Sprague's singing. A series of living |
pictures at the conclusion Of the fifth
act was applauded. The play is ad-
vertlsed for the week.

murder. The dramatist mast eXagger-
ate and distort some incidents to obtain
the normal effect of others. Even the
best drama is filed with distortion and
eXaggeTatiOn.
Painting and sculpture must adopt
similar eXpedlents; yet literature. de-
pendent upon language alone, is expect
ed TO be free from artifice! Language
is a feeble instrument. In portraying
form and color. the crudest painting oft
eXcels the most gifted poet. When
words do succeed, their success is mar
rowly confined, and no landscape, no
face can be other than dimly set forth
in writing. Similar uncertainty of eff
feet is displayed in narration. Never
did two survivors agree about the battle
of Bull Run.
In every purely literary work there
therefore arises an urgent necessity for
eXaggeration and distortion of detail in
order to produce the desired effect.
This lack OF realism in detail is obliga-
tory.
If ii is claimed that true literary real
ism applies to the general effect of a
composition, and not to its details, the
claim is equally invalid. AS already
observed. all author, like other men,
can have received but all inaccurate
idea himself Of the matter treated, and
that from one. Or few. points of view.
If he succeeds by effective distortion Of
literary details in so overcoming the
limitations of language as to convey to
others his own exact impressions, they
will then see but limited aspect of
the actual subject, and that aspect will
not be strictly correct. The greatest
author can do no more than this, for
all men are mere mpresSiOnists.
Ii this fact were generally appreci-
ated, less useless effort would be made
by artists, literary and otherwise. to
complete the unfnishable. No artist
can paint all of human face, no author
describe all of a conversation. Either
will merely convey his impressions,
differing with different men, but pos
slbly containing, in every case, all equal
proportion of truth. The same event
would suggest to Scott something ro-
mantle, to Dickens something pathetic.
to lola something dramatically repul-
sive, to Tolstoi something discouraging.
1t is then evident that no objection
can be made to either the exaggeratiou
or distortion Of details in literature or
art. except as it impairs the general eff
feet; for such manipulation of detail is
necessary for successful results. On the
other hand,no work, however objection
able i'll other respects, can be con-
demned for want of fidelity to life. pro-
viding its total impression belongs in
any of the general phases under which
life presents itself. A romantic novel,
humorous poem, may be, OH occasion,
as nearly true to life as pessimistlc
social study; and no writing can be re-
jected because it is not that fantasy,
that airy fabric of dream'-an alb
solute portrayal of life.

This means that Mexico will allow no

such great efforts to draw into the dis

whether the reciprocal aid will be given

Gratis have nominated eX. Gov. Pattison,
