dream of Louis James ambition to be
recognized as the leading exponent of
Hamlet in this country. He long ago
began to give ii his careful study and
attention, paying attention both to
Shakespearean intent and radical char
acteristics of the Melancholy Dane"
He carefully prepared his own acting
version of the play with respect to his
conception of the character, restoring
some portions which had been omitted
by former actors, and cutting some of
the long speeches to shorter proper

the usual dreamy character of tradi- |

thoughtful parsonage that has always |

horror of his fathers death and super |

perfectly sane and only feigning insan- |

given us the horrors if we had wit |

them. The unanimity with which peo- |
pie of all nationalities have refused to |
see Ibsen's plays is remarkable. If |
spells bankruptcy, Ibsen |
means supplementary proceedings. |

put forth the ingenious argument that |

business of the grand jury is to inspect
the books OF the county and city officers,
and there are lots Of officers where all the
business is done at the county seat. They
hire experts to examine the books and if
they find anything crooked they summon
witnesses and indict. The clerks fee for
entering a civil suit is ten dollars, and
everything else in about that proportion.
The civil practice here is by complaint, an
swers, demurrer and jury trial. Plaintiff
may ask in his complaint to be allowed
an attorney fee, and the court can all ow
any sum in its discretion, usually one or
two hundred dollars in ordinary cases.
There is U. s. District Court in session
here all the time, two terms of the State
Supreme Court and two terms of the Law
Court.
There are about 800 attorneys in the
county, about three fourths of them in
this city. The fees they receive would be
considered exorbitant in Maine. There
are SO many of them they have to charge

with the physicians. The mayors salary
is 50, 600 per year, councilmen, 50, 400,
