HUGO AS AN ORATOR.
His Impassioned Address nc the voitaire
Centenary Celebration In Paris.

| Centenary celebration In faris.
Preached Paris just in time for admis-
sion to the Folie theater, where the Vol
taire centenary celebration was TO be held
that day, with Victor Hugo for the orator.
| After some preliminary addresses, there
| followed a perfect tempest of applause,
and Victor Hugo took the stage.
His Grafton on Voltaire-since translat-
| ed by Mr.. James Parton-was delivered
| from notes, written in an immense hand
writing on sheets twice rs large as any
foolscap paper l had ever seen, and he
read from these without glasses. He was
at this time 80, but looked ten years
younger He stood behind two great
soonces, each holding six candles. Above
these appeared his strong white bearded
face, and above him rose the bust of Vol
taire crowned with wreath Of laurels.
He used much gesture and in imprisoned
moments waved his arm above his head,
the fingers apart and trembling with emo.

his head as If To tear out some of his " % |
hairs, though this hardly seemed, at the |
moment melodramatic. His voice was
strong, and yet lost more Of what he said |
than in case Of the other speakers, from |
some defect OF utterance. Others around
mo made the same complaint. His deliv-
cry was, however, as characteristic as his
literary style and quite in keeping with
It, being series of brilliant detached
points. 1t must be a stimulating thing in
deed 10 speak TO French audience, to
men who give signs of delight over fine
phrase and shouts of enthusiasm over a

lis address was, thought, his defense of

xpostion called a field of battle
After the address the meeting ended

Philippines at their leisure. The taking
of the back track through the Suez ca
nal by all that's left Of SPANS navy
practically means the abandonment Of
the Philippines, or that they will be left
to such fate as may be figured out by
its Spanish authorities there under
compulsion, or under the guns of Dew

August could hold out until Camara
reached him. But that hope and prom
Use was abandoned when it was official
ly announced that Watson's squadron
was going direct to Spain. Should Wat
son overtake or find Camara outside Of
a fortified harbor his fleet will meet the
same fate as the other two. The Ma
Mia garrison can now die in fighting
or otherwise surrender. Any day the
news Of a complete collapse of Spain in
the Philippines is liable to come. Stu
dents Of Spanish history, however, be
lieve that Spain would not even then
sue for peace. These hold that not only
must Santiago fall and Porto Rico be
captured, but that Havana Will have to
be demolished utterly with a powerful
