FOND OF THE MELODRAMATic.
Dicke MS Works Painfully Sprinklod
with Situations Suitable for Stage

Dicke ms Works Plentitully sprinkled
with Situations Suitable for stage
It is curious what penchant Dickens
had for certain melodramatic situations,
which seemed to his fancy SO telling
that he repeated and reproduced them
many times over. He had a lively dra-
matte turn, says writer in the Gen.
tlemen's Magazine, and always
thought would have had extraordinary
success as dramatist. l once asked
him why he had not taken up this
cline" seriously, and think he made
the excuse-it was long ago, many
years before his death-that he had not
time, taste or patience. The real rea-
son, no doubt, was that he could not
work without expanding, and could not
"carve heads upon a 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 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,
10 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 a room by the more virtuous mem
bers; the confederate then energies
from his concealment and tells a long
story of villainy. We have this denoue-
mept first in "Oliver 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 his hereditary enemy to
make revelations. In "Chuzzlewit,"
Jonas is confronted with another be-
trayer. In "Copperfeld," Uriah Heep
is denounced and exposed by Mr.. Mi
cawber. In BLEAK House." Lady Ded-
lock is similarly tracked. In nearly all
the cases the guilty person goes on
and commits suicide.

Who Are Republicans Now

The following is from "The
principles Of the republican party"
issued in 1892 for the use of the
republican speakers during that
year:
There was grave danger in i
unqualified adoption of the goi
standard. The demand for g.l,
has enormously grown, and grown
in a proportion much greater than
the supply. Measuring both met
ais by the standard of commod,-
Ties it is substantially true to say
that gold has appreciated much
more than silver has deprecated.
"ln these silver using countries
silver will buy almost as much of
everything except gold as it would
a dozen years ago, and this sus-
tains The demand for cheaper
money.
Measured in gold all Obliga-
tiOns have increased. The crtdi-
tor class enjoys vas auvans"r
over the debtor class, The M,
who work for their living and VIII
consume their earnings year hN
year, are placed in a most unfair
position.
"The republican party believes
that the evils suffered by the peo-
pie as the result of the apprecia-
ton of gold require prompt and
substantial correction.
president Harrison in his first
message, warmly urged silver coin
age and declared it foolish to dis
credit a metal Of which we were
such large producers.
"The republican platform
1888 condemned Mr.. rl"v"l.
and the policy pursued to de-
monetize silver.
"Within three weeks after the
silver law of 1890 went into effect
the value of the silver dollar had
risen from rs cents to so cents
and the value of American cerea
increased in q similar ratio

THE PARIS ExhlsITiUN OF ,yUU.

everythiug VIII he Done Upon . Grand
and Immense Scale.
In the Revue des Deux Mondes Is
preliminary survey of the forthcoming
cosmopolitan exhibition of 1900.
It will be held ON the Champs de
Mars, a great open space on the south
west extremity of Paris, already con-
secrated by the presence OF many simi-
lar fairs.
The French government sent out
their first announcement OF the scheme
on July IS, 1902, and last summer the
chamber of deputies voted prelim-
mary grant for the expenses connected
with 'best plan competition" The
Champs Elysees will be considered part
Of the exhibition, and there is even a
talk of including the immense square
in front Of the Invalides. Indeed, the
scheme of construction provides for
broad bridge which will join in per-
manent fashion the Champs Elysees to
the quay which runs on the river side
Of Napoleon's historic resting place.
Architects. artists and builders were
invited to send in plans and ideas. Every
kind Of liberty. in theory, was allowed
to those who took part in this curious
competition. Thus the best scheme did
not necessarily require the retention
Of the Eiffel tower or any other OF the
old exhibition buildings, with the
notable exception, however, of the
Trocadero. Everything will be done
on an immense scale and if the ideas
which at present prevail among
its promoters are carried out the
exhibition OF 1900 will gradually
absorb the whole Of Paris, and even
far off Vincennes will be utilized for all
that concerns athletic sports, interna-
tionalmatches and Olympian games. AS
is natural, a great point will be made
Of anything relating to the past CEN
fury, and the exhibition will be in more
senses than one a centennial exposition.
The army and navy sections will be OF
very great interest.
After period of four months those
who had entered their names as being
willing and anxious to enter the exhi-
bition plan competition were told to
send in their schemes. No one compel
itor fulfilled all the conditions, sc
something will be taken from each OF
the eighteen best sets of plans and sug'
gestions sent in. The Seine will play q
prominent role in the esthetic side of the
exhibition, for 1t is proposed to recon
stitute on its left bank portion Of the
Grand canal, Venice.

How . Dog Became . Tsstotalsr.

A lady at Westgate-on-Sea tells re-
markable anecdote of a dog who was
cured of its evil habit of love for liquor.
Some mischievous persons had so often
given to her faith ers great dog bits of
bread soaked in beer that Neptune
grew fond of the artificial dainty. One
day when large party was returning
from picnic, Nep was put on the box
seat beside the driver of the carriage,
as he seemed too tired to run home all
the way. He must have drunk some
LIQUOR at the feast, for on the road
he fell from the carriage to the
ground. No bones were broken,
though he must have got severe shake
and fright in the fall The result was
that Nep never once after that day
could be induced to touch bread soaked
with liquor, turning from it with loath-
ing and contempt, the very smell Of it
being repulsive. In fact, he became .
teetotaler.

Queer Things About Canada.

There are three things that attract
the notice Of traveller from the states
when he has got into Canada, to say
nothing of the general dulluess that
prevades that province. One is the dis
appearance of window blinds and bare

the presence of militiamen and police

be of the English militia and London

THE NEW LIGHT.

pletely succeeded in producing a new
light. which he calls the "huorescent

descent and in every way preferable
The same style of globe is used, but
the whole globe is aglOw with a bril-.
liant white light of wonderful illumin-
ating power, instead of the carbon fla
ment. Crystals Of tungstate are weld
ed to the inside of the globe, a partial
vacuum is created and the light is pro-
duced by molecules of air in rapid
vibration striking against the tungstate
crystals. A low current of electricity
is employed, and whereas in the incan-
descent light only 8 per cent is utilized
as light, there is no perCeptible heat
from the new light. Its power is
greater, at much lower cost than any
light ever before produced. We have
only just begun to get used to the in.
candescent lights through their general
introduction and use, and now comes a
substitute, which is likely to supplant
them as rapidly as they. were originally
introduced, from the same in=entor.

Nez Perez County will not receive
any revenue from the Indians it ap-

Assessor Wing as saying there is not
an Indian on the assessment rolls.
Some were willing to be assessed, but a
combine was effected and it was de-
cided to refuse to give in their assess
ments. 1t is stated that the reason for
this action is that they are only partial
citizens, and that until they can deed
away their land and walk up to the
bar and order the drinks like white
men they will pay no taxes. According
to Judge Clagett's opinion this will
deprive them of the elective franchise

FEEDING ALFALFA.

An experiment, carefully conducted
at the Utah agricultural station in
feeding alfalfa cut at different stages of
its growth, has shown that steers fed on
that which was cut just before coming
into bloom made gain of three. fourths
of a pound day. A second lot fed
when the grass had been cut in the
early bloom made gain of only half a
pound, while third lot fed on late cut
hay, after it was out of bloom, made an
average gain of only one.fourth of a
pound per day. There is a lesson worth
needing in this. If you neglect your
haying when the grass is just fit to cut,
you are letting the dollars run away
from you.

is placed in tin bucket or other re-
ceptacle it can be readily CONCEALED by
putting it in a pail containing a weak
