Ophelia and the unprecedented actlons OF
Hamlet and Laertes in her open grave, were
pictured, and in connection with this there
was some discussion on Hamlet's philosophy
and the mental bent of his reasoning pow
ers. Other topics discussed were Hamlet's
comment on the skull, the discussion be-
tween Laertes and the priest who forbade
Christian burial to Ophelia, the character
of Horatio and his friendship for Hamlet
and Ophela, and something of the latter's
life and character. Mrs. Galpin sang several
of Ophelia's songs, both merry and full of
sadness, and incidentally gave some bits
of history regarding the songs which have
been handed down since the time of Shakes
peare and proceeding it. Mrs. Lottie D.
Willard and Mrs. Oliver Bryant then read
the closet scene, and the lesson closed with
quotations from the play. Next week there
will be short character sketches by various
members of the class on Claudius, King Of
Denmark, Gertrude, Queen of eDnmark,
polonius, Laertes, Horatio and the Ghost
of Hamlet's father. The following week
will conclude the study Of the play, and will
be entirely devoted to Hamlet, his charac-
ter, his madnessj feigned or real, his love
for Ophela and his irresolution.

DR.. Fletcher demonstrated that the finest
relics of truly Roman architecture We're
found in Balbec, Asia Minor, and other cities
in the province, and attributed the cause to
the freedom which the provincial cities,
such as Balbec, had had from the foreign
and domestic wars which had devastated
Rome. Truly Roman architecture, he said,
never crowned two columns with an arch;
and again, the futed columns which char
acterized Greek architecture We're more
often plain in ancient Rome, although at
Balbec are seen both futed and unfuted
columns in the same basilica. Changes came
later, however, when other influences began
to work in Rome.
Some rare views, collected by Mrs. Mary
S. Caswell, which have not been previously
shown in this country, gave an insight into
the progress of restoration which has
brought to light some of the most valuable
relics of Roman art. These were valuable as
showing the contrasts and resemblances be-
tween the old and the new typifed in the
Roman forum and st. Peters cathedral. A
contrast between the graceful triumphal
arch of Titus and the massive modern arch
of Napoleon at Paris resulted to the dis
advantage of the latter.
The lecture closed with some rare slides
of celebrated portrait statues and groups
which have been restored from Capus and
Pompeii.
