~Titus AndrOnicus,"

Every play by Shakespeare has
been acted in modern times, includ.
ing even "Troilus and Cressida, "
"Timon of Athens" and '"Titus An
dronicus, which certainly cannot
be called familiar plays. The last
named revolving drama is declared
by some recent commentators to be
the work of lesser poet, not even
touched in revision by Shakespeare,
but that is mere speculation. "Titus
Andronicus" was acted in England
as recently as 1851, having been
adapted for the late Ira Aldridge,
the colored tragedian, by IAN emf
nent literary gentleman" The "Af-
rican Roscius" himself undertook
the part of Aaron the Moor. Dry
den, Colley Cibber, Garrick and 9TH
ers made adaptations of this gloomy
tragedy.-New York Times.

HER OPINION OF HIM.


A Lawyer Who Was Caught Up With For
Once.
If there is anything exasperating
in this lifa, it is the lawyer who de-
lights to buiiyrag and otherwise Go-
spltetully use a witness, more par
ticularly when that witness is a
woman. 1t is on this account that
there is a general rejoicing when
that kind of an attorney is smitten
hip and thigh by one of his suppos.
edly helpless victims. Of such is
tho following tale:
The woman was on the stand. and
she was a very nice hammered, re-
spectacle woman who kept cheap
boarding house, and it was the de-
sire of one of her guests to be dis
honest that had brought her to the
court to make him pay his board.
How old did you say you were,
MADAME inquired the lawyer, with
no reason on earth, for an elderly
landlady is no more anxious to lose
board bill than a young one.
Il did not say, sir" she respond
ed, flushing to the roots of her hair.
will you be kind enough to says
madame"
Its none of your businessr"
objection sustained, smiled the
court.
"Umr said the lawyer, rubbing
his chin. How much did you say
the amount was the defendant owed
you2"
twenty-five dollars"
And for how long was thats"
"Five weeks"
"That's S. week, isn't it9"
Eyes, SIR
Give weeks at IS a week is s25, I
believe you said9"
Eyes, sir"
The witness was patient, but her
temper was not improved under the
strain.
ism that an eXtravagant price
to pay for board in that locality,
MADAME" inquired the attorney Sc
verely.
HE didn't pay it, sir" answered
the worm, beginning to turn.
The lawyer gave a little start of
surprise, then became indignant at
the very thought of witness talk
ing like that.
Don't be facetious on the witness
stand, madam" he said, assuming
tone of warning. "This is serious
matter, madam. I have asked if
your prices were not exorbitant,
and you have seen fit to answer
lightly, madam. Now, madam,
ask you in all earnestness if you
mean to tell this court that your
prices are moderate and that if
should come to your house to board
you would charge me SIS week
Answer directly, madam" and the
attorney sat back in his chair and
assumed an imperial manner.
The witness was not at all abash-
ed

Il thought not, thought not, :"
interrupted the attorney, bending
over and rubbing his hands.
mo, sir, )" continued the witness;
II would not charge you at all. l
would make you pay in advance.
Then the court forgot it's dignity,
and everybody laughed except the
Observation-Disclosures Star.

HoBsON IN ATLANTA.
A Most Enthtsiasfic feception-
Lecture by the Hero.

ATLANTA, GA. August 2,--Richmond
Pearson Hobson has had at least two
warm receptions In his life. One was
under the beiching fires OF the Santiago
MORO. the other was in the midst Of
Atlanta's hospitality to-day. He of Mer-
rimac fame was the toast OF the whole
town. From the time he arrived this
morning until ne departed tonight he re-
ceived one continuous ovation from young
and old, big and little, patrician and pie
beian. The reception at the Governors
mansion on Peachtree street tonight to
the young Lieutenant was one of the most
remarkable demonstrations ever wit
messed in Atlanta.
Fully 5000 people called to see Hobson
and his mother. Everybody was invited,
and II seemed as If everybody went. The
Lieutenant vas 70 completely exhausted
shaking so many hands and speaking
word OF appreciation to so many people.
that he was forced 10 retire to room
and snatch a few moments rest before
the reception was over. No more en-
thusiastic welcome or greeting has ever
been extended to any former visitor TO the
Gate City.
LECTURE AT wOMAN'S CLUE.
Mr.. Hobson's lecture at the Woman's
Club-rooms, in the Grant building, just
before the reception at the mansion, was
one Of the most thoroughly enjoyable dis
courses heard here In some time. With
that wonderful modesty that has charac-
terized his whole career, he never once
mentioned himself In his graphic descrsp-
ton of the trying ordeals through which
he had just passed. He told of how the
Merrimac went to the bottom in the midst
OF that hurricane of shot and shell in
Santiago harbor, and 1t was those men,
and not himself. On the other hand, he
claimed that the sinking Of the Merrimac
was no illustrious deed, but that 1t was
merely an evidence that the men OF the
American navy stand ready and willing
to answer any call, irrespective Of danger,
that their country may make.
The speech was most eloquent, not In
its fiuency or In its high-soaring phrases,
but in its simplicity. To say that 1t was
most enthusiastically received, and that
the boy reached tho heats Of every one
of his hearers, does not half express It
OFF FOR NEW YORK.
In company with his mother, he left
the city at midnight for New York, where
he will preside over the big meeting of

most troublesome and will demand the

Returning to the purpose for which l
