ment of the eminent Shakespearian
actor and scholar, Frederick Warde,
at Harper's theatre has now
opened. The play will be
Shakespesre's sublime tragedy,
king Lear" which has been de-
scribed by the critics as Mr.. Warde's
masterpiece and q remarkable pro-
duction. Lear is a proud. imperious
king on . throne, expecting all to
obey his will. Courtiers fawned on
him. The werld was at his feet, and
he seemed to own it. He gave king
doms to the daughters who deceived
him, and bitterness to the one who
loved him. The fates broke his
pride, reason left him, friends de-
serted hum. daughters conspired
against him, and robbed him of
wealth and power. No more touch
ing picture has ever been drawn than
is seen when the baggared, 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 ele.
ments add their cold winds and pelt
in rain and tragic lightning and
laundering voice to put more misery
on the pitiful old man. who finds no
peace until his mind goes from him.
and kind death relieves him of all
Of the ills that come to q man in this
world.
In LEAR" it is said, Mr.. Warde
has added one more character, which
is more evidence of his versatility.
He has found it a character in which
all the varied resources OF his art,
his intellectual attachments. his es-
thetical culture, his innate refine
ment of temperament are afforded
opportunities for full and spontane-
Gus expression. and his acting is
distinguished by correct conception.
delicacy Of touch, passionate yet re-
poseiul temper. 1t is difficult to say
the exact elements of expression by
which his wonderful impersonation
is illuminated. 1t may be suggested
that his salient attribute. are in
tense emotional power and sponta-
neous grace of delivery. These sre
conspicuously manifest at every
point of the characteriz alton.

Electric Bitters.

Electric Bitters is q medicine suit
ed for any season, but perhaps more
generally when the languid ex-
hausted feeling prevails. when the
liver is torpid and sluggish and the
need of a tonic and Alternative is felt.
A prompt use of this medicine has
often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act
more surely in counteracting and
freeing the system from the malarial
poison. Headache, indigestion, con-

Something About cartridges.

Among the habits Of the partridge
one il that when covey is roosting on
the ground, with their tails punched to-
gether in q circle, the bunch is sur
mounted by line Of watchful heads,
like sentinels on duty. Another is that
they run the instant the ground is
touched after ''fush," the dogs often
trailing them in rabbit hunting fashion.
Their sense of smell is evidently very
acute, for during the nesting season, if
the eggs, which number from 10 to 20,
are disturbed in any way or q hand even
inserted in the nest, It will be immedi-
ately deserted and q new one built. A
short time previous to the nesting the
males are often involved in desperate
combats for the choice Of mates, who
stand by and quietly watch the encoun-
ter, seeming not to care which one be-
comes the victor. The incubation is
performed entirely by the female, the

SHOOTING BOUNTY JUMPERS

It Became Imperative After Gettysburg,
and Lincoln Refused to Interfere.
Ibid you ever see a man shot for de-
sertion?"
"Yes, several Of them. The first one
was q man of our brigade. He deserted
while we were near fredericksburg and
Joined the Confederate army. A few
weeks before we started for Gettysburg
a Confederate deserter reached the lines
of another brigade and was placed un-
der guard. A soldier Of our brigade
passing that way saw the Confederate
and was surprised to find that he was
the man who had deserted from his
company few weeks before. Found
guilty, he was sentenced to be shot
The day upon which he was to die we
were on the way to Pennsylvania to
help fight the great deciding battle: The
deserter was placed in an ambulance,
by his coffin, that morning. AT noon,
after hardtack, pork and coffee, the
brigade formed three lines Of square,
when the deserter was marched from
right to left of the line and seated upon
the coffin. Twelve men were marched
two or three rods from him. The officer
| gave the command, Ready, aim, fire!
| The criminal fell back on his coffin,
! pierced by five or six bullets. The bur
ial followed Immediately, without serv-
ice, and the brigade pulled out, the
band playing quickstep.
"After the battle of Gettysburg, and
when the Fifth corps was camped near
the Rappahannock river, in September,
the whole command was formed on
three sides of square, the customary
formation, and witnessed the shooting
of five deserters. All of them were oi

A wheelman's Device.

Ingenious wheelmen of Nice have put
an end to the tribute of lives which
q hill near that city has been ex-
acting from them. At the bottom OF
this declivity, it seems, there is a sharp
turn, then bridge with low parapet,
and Just beyond terrible amount OF
nothing at all except scenery. Long ago
the French Touring club put a sign ad-
vising caution in a conspicuous place at
the top of the descent, but this did not
prove sufficient to overcome the fatal
attraction of the abyss, and wheelmen
continued to precipitate themselves into
the view-which, by the way. was pri-
vate property-with rapidity that
threatened in time seriously to diminish
the clubs annual receipts from dues.
After long study of the problems,
financial, asthetic and others, which
the case involved, it was decided to sus-
pend just beyond the parapet strong

FIREMEN'S WATCHFULNESS.
Habits OF Vigilance That Prevent Com

Habits OF Vigilance That Prevent Com
radc's Danger From Being Overlooked.
After twoscore firemen had been TAX
an unconscious from the cellar OF q
burning building in Chambers street q
curious citizen who wandered inside
the fire lines asked:
"How do they happen to know in all
this confusion and noise that men sup
posed to be fighting fire in the cellar
have been overcome by smoke and are
living down there unconscious, and
how, too, with nearly 40 men rescued,
do they know that there are not more
men in the cellar in similar predlca-
ment?"
Under the circumstances the question
was perfectly natural. 1t was a dark
night and the fact that the electric
lights for block east and west sputter-
ed constantly instead Of giving steady
light did not improve matters. All was
confusion around the burning building.
Firemen were running every which way.
Policemen were beating back the crowd
which was struggling to get near enough
to the engine house to see the prostrate
firemen within. Ambulances and fire
engines blocked the street, and firemen
were clambering over the roofs of adj
joining buildings, yelling hoarsely al
one another and seeking places to fight
the fire.
Naturally in all this confusion it was
matter Of wonder to one not familiar
