the masterpieces is not to do what the actor
does-give scenic representation-but to
present especially the literary beauty of the
composition.
''The actor depends on situations, stage para
phernalla, mechanism. lights, etc. The reader
is robbed of all that. His calcium lights are
only his sidelights In the way of comments
which give his own conception of the motives
OF the characters in the play. The actor tries
to present the characters to the eye. The read
er, as Robert j. Ingersou says, makes the au-
ditor see forest in a paragraph, rock in a
line. He is made to see with the eye of imag-
ination The text looms up and there is moth
ing to detract the mind from 1t. 1t shines out
more vividly than when play is presented on
the stage by an ordinary company. Not more,
however, than with great company such as

THE STATE AROUSED.

While it might have been expected OF
Fresno, Visalia and the other communi-
ties north of Tehachapi that they would
respond promptly to a call for aid in the
fight that San Francisco is making to
bring the Republican National Convention
to San Francisco, it is gratifying beyond
measure to observe that Los Angeles is
coming so handsomely to the front This
is the most convincing proof that the peo-
pie there meant what they said when they
assured the Half-million Club of San
Francisco that they would always do
whatever might lie in their power to ad-
vance the general interests of the State.
This means the death of injurious section
aIism in the State.
The San Joaquin Valley had already
shown its spirit in its substantial recep-
tion of the San Joaquin Valley Railroad.
Hence there was no surprise when its lead
ing towns and cities began to subscribe to
the convention fund. 1t will next be in
order to expect encouraging news from
the middle interior and the Sacramento
Valley.
One OF the most pleasing features of the
| fight is the liberality of the press through
out the State. AS matter of fact the
newspapers, so far, have exhibited a
broader spirit of enterprise and have sub
scrlbed more generously in proportion to
their means than the other elements OF
the community. This is something new.
a reasonable view of their case would
create the impression that they do suffi-
cient for the public good as the persistent
advocates and leaders of progress In
for NV
ample of generosity of subscriptions to
this fund, they are enhancing their power,
increasing the popular respect for their
value as leaders and inspiring the laggards
to activity.
1t is difficult TO conquer the old silurian
| spirit of the State at dash. 1t was over
thrown and banished from Southern Cali
fornia years ago, but 1t still rides tri-
umphant in those sections VIII ich have
not felt the impulse lent by contact with
progressive settlers from the East. The
energy which is stirring San Francisco in
dicates that siiurianism is .tottering to its
fall, but its croaking is still heard and its
hand still clutches its purse. With sneers
and doubts it is working with all the open
ness it dare adopt to keep California in the
mire. Happily its voice is drowned in the
sounds of enthusiasm with which the good
| fight proceeds.
The meeting last night, having formu-
lated most excellent plan of campaign,
material results of gratifying kind may
be at once expected. But the organization
of working committees will in no sense
relieve the individual members of the
community of responsibility. Every one
do ~ ,ia
so make the victory the more overwhelm-

The Paris Figaro tells the following story oi
the late Bishop Cordier OF Pnom-Penh: AS he
found no Christians in the capital of Cambo-
dia, he decided to begin at the top and convert
King Norodom. His Majesty expressed great
interest in the new faith, and appointed a spe-
cial interpreter to translate the catechism and
the words of the Bishop for him. The ruler
was ready to be baptized, when he happened to
learn that Christianity only permitted a man
to have one wife. He proposed to the Bishop
to induce the Pope to allow him, as a special
favor, to have at least twenty wives. When
this demand could not be granted he decided
to remain a heathen

A Framing Primer.
How to Frame Pictures
ArtistiCalIy.

Easy as A B c is the framing of your
pictures, whatever they may be. A
little taste, little thought are needed
that's all.
II you are the happiest of mortals,
IN possession of rare and renowned
Oll Paintings by celebrated artists, the
selection is easy. Goid-leaf frames OF
massive proportions will complete the
decorative effect of these paintings,
whether they become the ornament OF
your ancestral halls or your reception
parlors. But if by taste or fortune
your modest gallery contains only a
portrait or two, gold, sumptuous and
effective, will surround that portrait
with the brilliancy and glow that 1t
deserves.
But if Water-colors are your fad,
your fancy can give itself full play IN
the selection of mates, mounts ana
passe-partouts of colors harmonlzlng
with the general tones of each picture.
The picture holdings, too, can be so
selected as to make delightful tout
ensemble" Or seeking some new,
original effects, you may select with
equal good taste contrasting colors OF
pleasing shades.
Engravings and Etchings are attract
ing the collector and the esthetlc. Inc
old are sought after and the new are
receiving better attention than ever
before. For the library, the ball, the
den, they are the correct, the most
pleasing ornament, encircled in appro-
pirate Oak, Maple, Cherry, Mahogany.
In preparing our new stock for this
season we have borne in mind all these
various demands, their numerous re,
auirements, not in one, but IN all
branches.
Pictures in Oil, Water-colors, En-
cravings and frames OF every descrlp-
tion, mats in all colors. Ihey are

When the decision of the Supreme Court of
Illinois afirms "rhe Judge is not the court
carrying the judicial function around wher-
ever he goes" IL is obviously inaccurate. The
constitution clothes the Judge with powers
that adhere to him so lang as he is legally in
judicial office, aid those powers defined and
limited by law go with him wherever he goes
Should he attempt to dislocate from their
proper place still other judicial powers, whose
exercise must be in the open forum or in cham
bers and in the presence of witnesses, he is
liable to Impeachment, as provided by law

Our jury system has gradually degenerated
until, as the Supreme Court recently said, it
has at times brought the administration of
justice ''into public contempt and dishonor."
1t has rendered property unsafe as the prey OF
the idler, the vicious and the shyster; it
has offered immunity to crime by the protec-
ton that could be given to it In the jury-box;
1t has organized under the very shadow of the
altar OF justice combinations for the suborna-
tion OF perjury, and it has made self-respecting
witnesses withhold testimony rather than
be exposed to criticism and often to insult

There was prize fight in Boston few weeks

a jury acquitted them. Prize fighting in Massa-
