Williams ascendency to the Throne, row

faction has been evinced- Some years
ago the committee decided Ludwig Fulda'S

and as q matter of form, this decision was
sent the emperor. Now IL was unjuSty
rumored that FuIda's "Talisman" was
hit at higher powers, and the emperor re-
iected the decision of the committee and
bestowed the prize elsewhere.
At the end of the next term of years
the committee universally agreed that

Paul Hcvse, disgusted with the turn things

The qualities of the human wreck, 50
admiralty brought out By John Hare, are
the disease of vanity and the disease of
drink We do not laugh at Eccles' as we
have done before. How the disease of
vanity, as displayed in the new, and, we
venture to say, the true Eccles' comes out
in his sketches Of pOthOuse speeches, his
bits of tipsy songs. his authority as an
ex-chairmau at conyiviaI meetings, and his
rotten opinions on social questions that
affect the working man opinions, by the
way, that went with the same satiricai
laughter in 1896 as they did in 1867.
There is a certain indescrihable
distinction in the old scoundrel. We feel
that he has known better days that there
is some breeding in the dirty old hulk, and
that, becoming q sOt, he has shown the
pitiable weakness of human nature. 'Ec-
cles at one time might have been saved, but
his vanity toppled him off the pedestal;
and then, of course, there is on the top
OF this vanity the desire for drink, which
Mr.. Hare expresses with such mastery
touches The dear old play was
admirably acted, and IL came out of its
lavender far fresher than anyone eH-
pected. In fact, the way the dialogue WAS
received, and the success of every familiar
point and scene, prove that the word
old-fashioned cannot be applied to this
remarkable work Human nature can
never become uld-fashioncd; and with
human nature, manliness, truth, honesty.

its cast play it as though it was the real
and not themimicked article. Anotherthing
that makes '.Charley's Aunt superior to
plays of its class, is is atmosphere. The
pIavers are men aud women of good man
ners, moving in a high walk OF life. The
play is high toned, even if Ridiculous, and
the scene of the play permits the use OF
garments fit for men aud women of coed
breeding to walk aud talk in. IL will be
readily understood that such eOuiina-
ton with a good play cannot give anything
but first-class performance.
