THE CZAR IN PARIS.

as possible in regard to this. but 1t vas
privately talked about more than anything
else. In the matter of physical department.
however, Nicholas gave the impression of
being the reverse of brave. The Oldest Par

with bayonets, or civic guests VINO passed
everywhere with their horses at a sharp
trot. There had been elaborate arrange

changed, and the cortege was rushed
this to the terrors of the Car. though
much more likely it was due to the nerv-
BUSINESS of the police authorities of Paris.
All who came close to the Car saw him
quivering with a kind of stage fright, which
affected him throughout the visit. His
awkward way, too. of lifting his hand to
his cap in an incessant military salute both
puzzled and annoyed the crowd. which had
memories or traditions OF an emperor who
dotted his hat and bowed and smiled when
he drove through Paris. 1t was this that
chilled the enormous throngS gathered to

opposite the Palais de PIndustrie. and
where the biggest crowd was. The papers
talked of tremendous cheering" but
really. save for the white-robed Tunisian
sheiks. there was little or none. BY night
time the crowd had found its voice, and
could raise a sort uf cheer, but at the out
set 1t was almost dumb.
The Empress, also. at the beginning was
white as a sheet and visibly trembling. She
bowed as if she were a piece of mechan-
ism. 1t seems. however. that she had been
hideously seasick the day before. and was
in no condition that morning for The ordeal
of facing Paris. BY evening she had re-
covered. and she was inspired by her I'M
paralleled surroundings to play ideally well
her part. Next day all Paris was talking
about her. 1t Is nearly thirty years since
Frenchmen had seen a beautiful woman
howing from an open royal carriage. and
the sight went to their hearts. Old I'm
perialists wept openly at the spectacle and
the memories IL evoked. while the younger
generation in turn was moved by this. The
laying Of the bridge foundation on Wednes-
day became exclusively the czarina's affair.
The Car and President Faure took part in
the ceremony. but the crowd had eyes and
voices for her alone. She was affected to
tears by the stress of the situation. but
she bore herself magnihcently none the
less, and hundreds of thousands OF people
yelled: 'vive rImperatrice." a sound which
the Seine valley had not heard before since

Filled with the sweets of spring,
With the purple and gold of autumn
And dreams that His angels bring.

All happy because untried;
A world full of sun and laughter,
And tears that were quickly dried.

Gave most of us hearts to forget
The loves and the ~dreamings of childhood
To lose everything but regret
That the joys had all gone; We remembered
The taste of each joy, but forgot
The places and times we had found it,
And the trifles that hallowed each spot
In our Child-World-
Our joy-laden, PARKWAY Child World.
Yet He gave one a heart to remember,
To store up the sweets as they came;
And He took them to keep as His treasure,
Forever and ever the same
The same but for brea things of incense
With which He had laid them away;
And He lures us with memory's love song
Back into our Child-World to-day.

S~EABROOKE RETURNS FOR THREE
NIGHTS IN ."THOROUGHBRED."
Week, and Callahan i'm Lost Para
dise' Comes to the Empire.

Charles Frohman presents Thorough
bred" with Thomas @. Seabrooke in the
cast, at the Grand Opera House, the last
half of this week. Thoroughbred is an
English comedy in three acts, by Ralph
Lumley, and is said to have the great
merits of vivacity and refinement. Besides
its main comic story, it contains two or
three love stories which are serious in their
nature. One of these concerns a young
American millionaire and a beautiful En-
glish girl, who is rich only in &, long line
of ancestors. The comic element centers
in the character played by Mr.. Seabrooke,
that of a harmless. amiable and pious old
English mayor, with a strong antipathy
to worldly amusements, particularly horse
racing. Through becoming a nominal own
er OF a horse which turns out to be a cell
ebrated race horse, he is led to take an
interest in the race track, and his trans
formation into a sporting man is produc-
tive of much fun. In the last act he fig
ures in the disguise of a strolling negro
minstrel in order that he may attend the
Ascot races without being discovered. Cir
cumstances require him to participate in
singing several comic songs. Among those
introduced are George Grossmith's Keep
the Baby Warm" and the burlesque plan
tation song, Our Apply Little 'Udson
One" The cast is strong. In it are Ed
gar L. Davenport, Isabel Evesson, H.. M.
Pitt, Charles w. Butler, Maggie Holloway
Fisher, Maud White and several other
clever people. The advance. sale for the
engagement opens at the Pembroke Arcade
tomorrow morning. Regular prices will
prevail.

there Is some possibility of that country
establishing a gold basis. If this scheme is
carried out Japan will have to get its gold
from other countries, as its own production
is less than a million OF dollars a year. Its
gold mines are worked by japanese labor
ers, who wear shoes or sandals of straw.
the soles of which are about as thick as
your little finger. These sandals wear out
very quickly, and the laborers then throw
them away. During my stay in Japan L
heard of a queer gold speculation in con-
nection with these old shoes. A man living
near the mines had for years collected all
the old shoes he could find and stored them
away. After a long time he burned them
TO ashes and panned the result. getting a
large amount of gold from them The story
was told for truth. but. like many ORR
entail statements, it sounds rather fshy.
A great part of the gold of both Japan
and China comes from Corea- The Corean
mines are said to be very rich Corea is
mountainous. and nearly all of its noun
tains contain minerals. During my visit TO
the country eight years ago our American
minister told me that he believed the gold
product amounted to $1,000, 900 a year. Gen.
Clarence Greenhouse. the American foreign
adviser to the King, described the mines
as very valuable, and foreign merchants
showed me quilts of gold dust and little
nuggets which had been brought to them
by the people. So far nearly all of the old
gotten out of Corea has come from placer
washings. There are a few quartz mines.
but these are worked in the crudest OF
ways. The loose rock is pried out with
picks or croWbars. When such means fail
a fire is built upon the rock. and, when it
is hot. cold water is thrown upon it to
crack it. After the ore is gotten out it is
crushed between two stones. the under
stone being fiat and the upper one some
what round, SO that it can be rolled back
ward and forward over the ore. crushing
it. After it is crushed the metal is saved
by HAND panning. No pumps are used, and
blasting powder and dynamite are prac-
tically unknown. There is no quicksilver
to gather the gold, and in all probability
the most of it goes to waste. The mines
are the property of the King, but those
who work them undoubtedly steal a great
part of the product. A number of foreign
ers are now trying to get possession of the
mines. and within a few years they will
probably be owned by English, Americans
and Russians.

Another American Play.

S. Goodfriend. in Plays and Players.
For several years past much has been
said ard written about the great American
play that was still to be written. The
yearners for this desirable product have
lessened considerably in New York since
the production of William Gillette's play,
Secret Service 1t is, un~deniably. a great
play, and places the author foremost in
the ranks of not only American drarnatists.
but among the playwrights OF the world.
1t is a marvel of dramatic construction.
The story is absorbingly interesting. the
characters are finely drawn. real; the Ian
guage is f%orceful. direct and always TO the
point. The interest of the story begins with
the rising OF the curtain and grows in in
tensity. There is no waste of incident. no
useless speech. There is not a moment of
the play that does not throb with vital in
terest. 1t Is plain that a master hand
guided every movement. from conception to
completion. The slightest deviation. the
most trifling weakness would have made 1t
