A Traitor as Base As Dreyfus.

The arrest of French spies in Ger
many and of German spies in France
has long ceased to possess the element
of novelty or to attract more than pass
ing attention. But it Is none the less
true that an incident of this sort. if it
came at a moment of international fer
ment, might serve to excite passions ON
both sides of tho vosges as readily now
as a quarter of century ago. The case
of the man Schwarz, who, with his
family, has been imprisoned in Paris, Is
one particularly calculated to impress
the French imagination. II he is guilty
beyond doubts, as LIE Temps declares,
he ia something much worse than an
ordinary spy. He is an Alsatian by
birth. served in the French army during
the war, and afterward elected to retain
his French nationality. This gave him
special claims to official Consideration
and secured him good berth in the po-
lice service and a decoration to boot. 1t
also put him in the very heart of the
patriotic clubs and societies which M.
Deroulede and his friends have organ
lied and enabled him to learn the names
of Frenchmen who were sent into Ger
many to spy out facts about the for
tresses and to warn the Berlin authori-
ties of their coming. He ranks, there
fore, in the public mind as a traitor
quite as base as Dreyfus, and at this
time of general uneasiness his case may
easily arouse even deeper national re-
sentiment. Saturday Review.

Edison and the Break"

"Dr. Norvin Green" says Megar-
gee" in the Philadelphia Times, "the
long time president of the Western I'm
ion Telegraph company, claimed that he
gave Edison the employment which was
the beginning of his successful career, to
which, as is well known, the Western
Union corporation has largely contrib
uted. Edison had been bothering the
officers of the company with telegraphic
devices they had no need Of He came
into the Office one day when it was i'm
possible to obtain communication be-
tween New York and Albany, and the
seat of the difficulty could not be To-
Gated. He was banteringly invited to
remedy the trouble. He said he could do
SO in two hours. He was laughed at and
given two days for the task. His process
was very simple. He telegraphed to
the best operator in Pittsburg and in
structed him to telegraph to the best
operator in Albany. The latter tel
egraphed his New York, line down as
far as he could, feeling his way from
point to point, and sending the results
to the Pittsburg man, who forwarded
them to Edison. In less than one hour
Edison said to the anxious officials, The
break is two miles from Poughkeepsie. '
That simple method insured his status
with the Western Union people and
won for him a hearing in all his
schemes ~

The italian Actress Rises to Greater
Heights Than the Frenchwomun. ~
AS yet Duse has permitted us only
glimpse of her gallery Of dramatic por-
traits. Elsewhere she has achieved trl-
umphs in plays differing as widely as
Ella Femme de Claude and LAB
besse de Jouarre. Her Juliet and
Ophelia have aroused fervent enthusi-
asm, and her Cleopatra is still bone
of critical contention between the com
mentators who hold that naturalness IS
the chiefest stage virtue and those who
prefer the dazzling artifice of which
Sarah Bernhardt is passed mistress. Ii
1t be the first object of good acting to
hold the mirror up to nature, the French
actress in these later days would be I'M
wise to dispute the palm with her ltal-
ian rival. The women whom she now
depicts are, for the most part, mere
moGonstrosities, fanciful developments
from one morbid and extravagant type.
If Duse, in attempting some OF them,
has failed to emphasize all the violent
and impossible contrasts OF which they
are compounded, and to amaze or hor-
rify by cry or a gesture, she at least
has contrived to impart to them, by hel
intuitive sense of truth and proportion,
some semblance Of humanity. Wherever
there is foundation of human heart te
work upon her power is absolute, ano
she can interpret all moods with almost
equal facility. As has been pointed out,
she can sound all the depths Of pathos
or simulate q paroxysm OF rage OF
scorn with the same veracity; can EN-
ploy with delightful effect all the wile'
Ct feminine seductiveness, play the co
ouette with indispensable afchness ant
yivacity and tread the perilous paths O
! the riskiest French comedy with light
ness, a sparkle, an assurance and al
adroitness altogether Partisan.
She possesses, moreover, in argel
measure than any other actress the pro
team gift of genuine impersonation
With face and figure devoid OF any
peculiar characteristic. she identifies
herself with the fictitious personality b,
subtle and appropriate transformations
in which gait, gesture, carriage ant
facial expression all play their part II
this respect, beyond question, she is thu
greatest actress of the day, and among
men Salvini alone takes rank above hel
or beside her. Her powers in high trar
edy or poetic comedy must be for us :.

Changing Diseases. 3La

In that delightful book, "Rider
Grange" the husband of Pomona
gives as his reasons for not remov-
ing from a malarial neighborhood,
that it don't do for a man at his
time of life to 90 about changing
his diseases and adding, that there
are diseases incident to almost
every locality. and he likes dis
ease he is used to.
Now, in case of malarial dis
eases, aside from the unwilling
ness of patients to "change dis
cases." it is generally not conven-
lent to change their residence. IT
this were done in every case, some
of our most thriving communities
would be depopulated.
Nothing is left to do therefore
but to fortify oneself against mala-
rial influences. For this purpose
Drs, Starkey G Palen's Compound
Oxygen has proved itself in the
past 20 years the most efficient
thing in the world.
ANY person desiring to change
diseases for health should write us
a plain statement of the case, when
if possible, the way will be point
ed out. The consultation is with
out charge. Address Drs. Stark
ey Dc Palen, 1929 Arch Street,

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed in the Spring when that languid,
exhaused feeling prevails. when the liver
is torpid and sluggish and the need of
tonic and Alternative is felt. A prompt use
of this medicine has often averted long and
perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine
will act more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system, from the material
poison. Headache, indigestion, Constipa-

Handicapped by Warm Weather.
BOSTON, Nov 2O.-A light trade and
weak prices are the leading features Of the
butter market Many receivers failed to
clean up last week, and the stock carried
over is offered at concessions. Fancy high
favored creamery holds its own pretty
we'll, because it is in small supply, but all
other kinds are in buyers favor. o.
The unreasonable mild weather is
blamed for the lack of trade, and all are
looking for more demand when the cold
wave which is now on the way comes TO
hand, but November has never been an
active month, and it is not probable that
much business will be done in butter I'M
til after Thanksgiving.
Satisfactorily viewed, our market has
some encouraging points. The receipts
last week showed a falling off as com
pared with the week previous and the cor
responding week last year, being 5o6, o2a
pounds, against 64S,0S1 pounds same time
a year ago. This is the first time for sew
eral months that the receipts were less
than last year. ,@
The west is expected to furnish large
portion of the fresh supply during the
winter as usual. and this, with what may
come from New England, will probably
give cur dealers all they want. A few
fancy brands Of western ran up TO 221l
cents, but for the general run of western
creamery 81 to 20 cents was top range
