of the treatment he had received since
his arrival in Superior. He paid high
compliment to Mr.. Morrison, who de-
feated him to the quartermile race,

ADJUSTMENTS.

Undoubtedly, what will be pro-
nounced one Of the most pleasing en-
tertainments at the Grand this season,
will be the concert given Saturday
afternoon by the DAM Symphony Or
chestra.
The great praise given tins excellent
organization in St. Paul and Mlnneap-
oils during their recent productions is
a guarantee that universal satisfaction
will be expressed here, and that the
students OF the great musical composers
will particularly find occasion to cong
ratnlate themselves for having enjoyed
q real musical feast. Owing to the short
time the Orchestra remains ut the head
of the lake it WAS necessary to have the
Superior concert take place Saturday
afternoon.

LITERARY NOTES.

Young men should not get the idea
that TO know the small graces Of life"
is useless or frivolous. What we call
the social graces' are very valuable to
q young man. That is the great trouble
with young men who are earnest; they
are too earnest. and upon all occaeions
They can have high aim in life, a lofty
purpose, and vet not close themselves
up to all social pleasures or amenities
Girls feel uncomfortable, and pardon
ably so, when they go to a concert or
any other form Of entertainment with q
young man who constantly makes mis-
takes in little things. The small rules
and laws which must be observed on
all social occasions are not 10 be frowned
down: they are important, and Young
fellow makes great mistake when he
considers them beneath him or I'M
worthy Of his Edward W.

FREDERICK WARDE'S KING LEAR.

A New Orleans exchange in criticism
of Frederick Warde and his production
Of King Lear says:
OF late Years this play has not been
much acted on account ofits difficulties
Its last performance here WAS by Edwin
Booth who had Charles Barron in his
support. before the Booth and Barrett
ombination had been formed. Mccullough
and Barrett had both tried to act It, They
could not soften and mellow TO the qualities
OF the old King. The ablest exponent OF
Lear an American public has seen WAS Edwin
Forrest and !, must be said the part was not
all his own until in his latter days. when age
had enfee bled him TO a degree and caused
him to abandon the robust roles Of Othcllo,
Macbeth. hetamorn and SparticuS. Now
comes Frederick wSrde-vho knows the play
thoroughly. and who has played Edgar and
Edmund in 1T many times with the old actors
and he makes grand presentation OF the
the way Of scenery and costumes. He docs
more. he gives = splendid characterization
OF the character OF Lear. 1t Is great story
Lear is a proud and imperious King. on "a
throne, expecting all TO obey his will. Cour-
tiers fawned on him. The world Was Ut his
feet. and he seemed to own 1t. He gave
Kingdoms to the daughters who deceived
him, and bitterness to the one who loved
him. The fates broke his pride; reason left
him; friends deserted him; daughters con-
spired against him and robbed him OF wealth
been drawn than the scene when this beg
CARED. helpless. daft old King. appears in
the forest with his wits all out, accompanied
by his faithful fool. This should be misery
enough; but the very elements add their
cold winds and pelting rain, and tragic light
ening and laundering voice to put more mis-
cry on the ptiful old man, who finds no
peace until his mind goes from him, and
Kind death relieves him from all the Ills that
can come to L man in this world. be he peas.
ant or king.
In all the phases of Lear's character Mr..
Warde showed himself to be a student in his
conception and reading Of the part, and a
subtle artist IN his execution, He works out
the character intelligently from the moment
he IS the throned king until the pitiful end
ing of his life. fierce until his strong will Is
broken. terrible in the act of cur>Ing his
traitor daughter. pathetic and touching in
all scenes where strength and intellect and
life Is fading away. For some time Frcder-
lex Warde has been the best Virgnius on
the stage. Now he /. the best King Lear.

The public seems never to grow
weary of hearing about Rudyard Kip
ling and his achievements, though much
OF what is said in print about him is
sorry stuff indeed. 1t is refreshing to
find in the February Review OF Reviews
q candid and unpretentious, but not the
less exhaustive, critique OF kipling
which really does justice to the authors
personality without ''gush' and without
in articles ofthis kind. The writer, Mr..
Charles ID. LanIer, has given lis an in
depreciation of kipling which is frankly
sympathetic and at the same time ire
sistibly attractive.
