FOND OF THE MELODRAMATlC.

Dtcke ns' Works Plentifully 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 lively dra- matic turn, says writer in the Gen tlemens Magazine, and I always thought would have had extraordinary success as a dramatist. I once asked him why he had not taken up this 'ine" seriously, and I think he made the excuse-it was long ago, many years before his death-that he had not time, taste or patience. The real req son, no doubt, was that he could not work without expanding, and could not ''carve heads upon cherry stone" A literary friend, who has his Boz" ait his fingers ends, has with great acute ness pointed out to me that Nicholas Nickleby wasa 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 a 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, to which he was excessively partial. was

Elephant Nurses.

The women of Siam intrust their children to the care of elephant nurses, and it is said the trust is never be- trayed. The elephant, not being sus- ceptible to the charms of the sumter ing policeman nor the social claims of his friends and relations, is consequent ly able to devote it's entire attention to its charge. The babies play about the huge feet of the elephants, who are very careful never to, hurt the little creatures. And if danger threatens the sagacious animal curls the child gently up in its trunk and swings it up out of harms way upon it's own back.

the unnasking of the villain owing to the betrayal of some confederate The parties are generally brought together in room by the more virtuous mem bers; the confederate then emerges from his concealment and tells a long story of villainy. We have this denoue- ment 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 herditary enemy to make revelations. In "Chuzzlewit," Jonas is confronted with another be- trayer. In "Copperfeld," Uriah Heep. is denounced and exposed by Mir. Mi cawber. In'''Bleak House." Lady Ded- lock is similarly tracked. In nearly all the cases the. guilty person goes off and commits suicide.

PLANS FOR FREIGHT FACILITIES DISCUSSED BY

points along the waterfront bounding this city. and
for the adoption Of a plan to cheaper the expense
