the woman bad a dream, in which the
son appeared TO her ssnd told her that If
she would go to certain corner of the
house and dig she wGuld find a flat
rock, underneath which she would find
let of silver money. The woman
awoke and was so much wrought up
over the vision that she aroused some of
the family and went at once TO the des-
ignated spot and began to dig. Soon
the fiat rock was reached and removed
with trembling hands and high @xpecta-
tion. A small box was revealed. This
was taken out and opened. and TO the

it contained 30 silver dollars. --Atlaeta

DuSE AND BERNHAROT.
The Italian Actress Rises to Greater
Heights Than the FrenehwOman.

The Italian Actress Rises to Greater
Heights Than the Frenehwoman.
AS yet Duse has permitted us only a
glimpse of her gallery Of dramatic por-
traits. Elsewhere she has achieved tri
umphs in plays differing as widely as
"La 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. If
it be the first object of good acting to
hold the mirror up to nature, the French
actress in these later days would be un-
wise to dispute the palm with her Ital-
ian rival. The women whom she now
depicts are, for the most part, mere
monstrosities, fanciful developments
from one morbid and extravaganza 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 her
intuitive sense Of truth and proportion,
some semblance of humanity. Wherever
there is a foundation Of human heart to
work upon her power is absolute, and
she can interpret all moods with almost
equal facility. AS has been pointed out,
she can sound all the depths Of pathos,
or simulate a paroxysm Of rage or
scorn with the same veracity; can en-
pluy with delightful effect all the wiles
Of feminine seductiveness, play the CO.
quette with indispensable archness and
vivacity and tread the pe1ilous paths CT
the riskiest French comedy with a light
ness, a sparkle, an assurance and an
adroitness altogether Partisan.
She possesses, moreover, in a larger
measure than any other actress the pro-
team gift of genuine impersonation.
With a face and figure devoid Of any
peculiar characteristic, she identifies
herself with the fictitious personality by
subtle and appropriate transformations,
in which gait, gesture, carriage and
facial expression all play their part. In
this respect, beyond question, she is the
greatest actress of the day, and among
men Salvini alone takes rank above her
or beside her Her powers in high trag~
edy or poetic comedy must be for us as
yet matter for conjecture only.-~J.
Ranken Tuwse in Century.

The arrest of FreEch spies ia Ger,

has long ceased to possess the element
of novelty OF to attract more Oman pass
ing attention. But it is nane the less
true that an incident of th5s sort, if it
came at q moment of International fer
ment, might serve to excite passions on
both sides Of the Vosges as readily now
as a quarter Of Il century ago. The case
of the man sSchwarz, who, with his
family, has tlgen imprisoned in Paris, is
one particularly calculated to impress
the French Imagination. If he is guilty
beyond doubts, as lie Temps declares,
he 7is something much worse than an
ordinary Spy. He a5s an Alsatian by

The Milwaukee Sentinel reports con-
versation with gentleman Of that city
who was formerly employed III the Cal
umet ana Hecla copper mine. While
thus engaged, he witnessed numerous
tragedies and some exceedingly narrow
escapes. Miners, Of all men, need to be
men of steady nerves and ready wits
Twoof the best of this Milwaukee mans
stories have to do with dynamite.
A blast was to be made, and a man
was sent down the shaft to place the
dynamite and light the fuses. He had
just finished this work-there were IA
sticks Of dynamite-when to his horror
he saw the car start upward A wrong
signal had been given, and up shot the
car
-Itwas all question of a few Sec
onds There was no time to summon the
car back. He set to work pnlling ont
the fuses Perhaps there would be time
for that. And happily there was, but as
he drew the last one he fell in dead
faint
Once I raw fellow workman save
his life by making a good catch. 1t was
fortunate for him that he had played
baseball in his time
He was standing at the bottom of a
shaft waiting for bucketful Of dyna-
mite sticks that were being let down to
him. The bucket was part way down
when he saw it strike against some OBJ
, Str1rti0u and turn naTtly over Ont fp II
ono CT the sticks. He watched it falling
in zigzag course-a messenger Of in
slant DEATH When it struck the hard
bottom, there would be a tremendous
explosion and an end of the miner.
But it did not strike the hard bottom.
Like player on the ballfield, the work
man put up his hands and caught the
stick as deity as if such trick were
only an everyday affair.

FACTS ABOUT CHAMPAGNE.
Sweet and Dry Wine and That Which
Comes In Magnums.

Comes In Magnums.
1t is commonly SAID in this country
that the best French champagnes are
sent to Russia and the United States.
1t is said in England, however, that the
best French Champagnes are sent to Rus
STA and Great Britain and that the best
cannot stand the voyage to America.
Wherever the truth rests, it is pretty
we'll known that the chappagnes con-
sumed in France itself are not what
Americans esteem the best. The French
like sweet champagne, and what is there
called a dry wine would be esteemed
here a sweet wine. The driest cham
pagnes are made almost exclusively for
export.
There are some odd superstitions
touching champagne that have no real
foundation. 1t is occasionally affirmed
that a great deal of so called champagne
is made of gooseberries.
"My dear boy" said famous cham
payne grower to a young Englishman
visiting him, "that story about cham
payne made from gooseberries is absurd,
for the reason that it is much cheaper
to make it from grapes than from goose,
berries. Perhaps if it were not we
might-well, I'll not say what we
might do. "
There is popular belief that mag
nun of champagne is big bottle OF the
very finest wine produced, and magnums
are always named in the accounts that
come from luxurious banquets. AS mat
ter of fact magnum is likely to contain
a comparatively inferior wine Of its
brand and for an excellent reason.
Sparkling champagne is distinguished
from still wine by the fact of being ma
tured in the bottle. But, unhappily, it
is difficult to make a bottle larger than
h quart that will be strong enough at
all points to resist the force of the gases
generated i'll the process of maturing.
Even the champagne bottled in quarts is
lost in considerable quantities by the
breaking of the bottles during the proc
ess Of fermentation. So the magnum Of
champagne is filled from small bottles
after the process of fermentation is COM
plete, and from that fact the wine thus
bottled is less likely to be the best of its
brand than that Bottled in quarts.
When Large London wine dealer
was giving great dinner, a feature Of
the table decoration was an enormous
bottle Of champagne wreathed with
flowers. 1t had been especially prepared
in France gnd was said to be the largest
bottle Of champagne ever imported intC
Great Britain. The bottle was greatly
admired icy the guests, number Ct
champagne buyers, but disaster fellow
ed, for the bottle was too weak for the
wine. and in the midst of the meal
doubtless owing to a rise in tempera
ture, BROKE, and the table was Suddenly
flooded with frothing champagne.
1T is noteworthy, however, on thu
Other hand, THAT champagne In quart
is LIKELY to be better an quality thai
