A Breton Mystery Pray.

The performance of 1.-THE Mystery OF ct.
Gwennole," which took place this year on
Sept. II at Treguier. affords a special IN
terest to our neighbors of Great Britain,
as the attempt TO revive the old Breton
plays Is closely connected with Celtic
movement as noticeable IN Brittany as in
Wales or Ireland. Even as their brothers
on the other side Of the channel, the Cells
in Armorica have set to work 10 revive
their national idiom. Now, among the
documents of early literature none are
more interesting than the old mysteries
written in the Breton dialect; their au-
thors are generally unknown, but they
have been put into verse by Young
"Cloarecs" studying in the seminares, and
they reveal 10 US in all its primitive Sim
plicity the character OF the old Bretons.
And the chief features of that character
are still to be found among the present
Bretons--a passionate faith. which even To-
day still believes in miracles. and unwav-
ering attachment TO the monarchy OF the
old Chouans
Two Breton poets. Anatole lie Braz and
Charles lie Gohic. were The first who start
ed this idea of a literary revival All that
had been done so far had been the publica-

Performances.
The Forepaugh-Sells Bros. circus will

puy tickets, as the fare cannot be paid on

Metals in reducing the fare win probably
result in many of the soldiers taking the

Reception at Lewisburg.

Memorial day had a double signif-
cance for Lewisburg. In addition to
the usual demonstrations which were
more extensive than ever, a royal
reception was accorded to Hon.
Pulaski F. Hyatt, United States Con-
sui at Santiago de Cuba, who return
ed TO his home at that place on Mon
day. He is better known in and
about Lewisburg as DR.. Hyatt. He
practiced medicine there prior to his
appointment in the consular service.
In the evening another reception was
rendered the Consul in the Methodist
Church.
He said land force can be used to
advantage in Cuba, but the move
ment should be made at once, as the
rainy season is about due there.
The Spanish army in Cuba at present,
he said, included about 60, 900 men
in fighting condition, strung along the
edges of the island. About $4,000
insurgents hold the center OF the
island, and about $4,000 more are
without proper military equipment.

1t is now about one month since
the actual hostilities began with
Spain and but one Spanish fleet,
Cat Manila) has been bagged, and
the enemy's army in Cuba has not
yet been driven out of that island
and it seems as if the Spaniards
there were still exercising all the
same authority which they ever
did. That the existing state Of
affairs will be changed later on,
there is no doubt, but the early ter
1nination of the war does not seem
within the range of probability.
The hot headed Congressman who
were so anxious to throw the
country into war, will no doubt
discover that wiping Spain from
the face Of the earth is no ten
O'Clock piece.

The summer girl is going to be of
two kinds. One will be crisp and
cool and clean in starched muslins,
and the other will be soft and downy
like flock of little chickens. The
first will wear dimities. percales,
piques and organdies. The others will
affect the mulls, silk and cotton, and
dainty Persian lawns and the weblike
batistes. The first will have little
trimming beyond neat and tidy finish,
with snug belt, while the other will
be nearly smothered in form of lace.
One will wear skirts plainly hemmed
or at most tucked, and the otner will
have lace ruffles until no one could
compute the number of yards of lace
employed. For the thin summer
dresses the quantity of ruffling almost
passes belief. The sleeves are shir-
red and puffed and frilled until one is
