DIR. YOORSANGER SPEAKS ON
COLONIZATION BY FORCE

Rabbi voorsanger spoke at the Turk
street Temple last night, under the
auspices of the Social Democratic party
on the subject of COLONIZATION. His
address was an historical resume of the
various migratory movements In man
kinds march in search of better condi-
lions. He said in brief:
mo nations right to It's lands has
been recognized by superior forces We
have displaced the Indian, and he has
conquered some preceding type. 1 will
draw no conclusion, as to the justice or
injustice of conquest, but will conclude
by saying that in my opinion no MN
has a right to take what belongs to
another
An animated discussion Of the question
by the members of the party followed
the interesting address.

his. And yet Bulwer Lytton, who was
no mean Judge, spoke of 1.-The Titanic
grandeur" of Macready's Lear.
king Lear held a conspicuous place
in those great Shakespearean reVivals
that in the middle of the century Charles
Kean made at the Princess and Samuel
Phelps made at Sadler's Wells. These
great actors played the part OF Lear
themselves, but, like their predecessor
Macready, they were each greater in the
milder and more pathetic aspects Of
Lear's highly composite character than
in the larger and more powerfully i'm
pressive aspects of 1t.
In America the two great Lears have
been Edwin Forrest and Edwin Booth.
Lear was one of Forests greatest parts.
But Forrest had played too much and
too long in the way of tickling the
ears of the groundlings" ever to become
a perfect Lear. He lacked the stateli-
ness, the grandeur, the dignified vener-
ableness Of him who was every inch
King" And yet Lear was a part in
which Forrest constantly kept overcom-
ing the rough and obtrustive individu-
atty of his youth, and in which, there
fore, he constantly grew mellower and
nobler and greater. Booths Lear,
though a noble one, was, of course, out
shone by mis- Richelieu and his l4amlet.
Note-The study of king Lear will be
concluded next Thursday.

various ways. The same law holds good
in social and organic relations. The JOY

1888. Macready thus
has the honor Of
having been the one
who first presented
to the world the
play of "KingLear"

Macready was very
nervous about the
matter. On January

opinion of the intro

is that, like many
terrible contrasts IN
poetry and painting,
in acting representa-
ton it will fail to
effect. 1t will either

claimed, Miss Hor-

part of Lear's Fool,
since Macready's
time, has been al
most always played
by a woman.

The strength of cereals. notably

Of decreased receipts at the northwest.
Increases in November this year were
not as large, either in this III or

TO this extent the outlook is less bear
iSh, and, owing TO the mailer worlds
production this ear, hopes Of wen
maintained prices have not been aban-

Cotton has lost some of the notable
strength displayed in past weeks, ow-
ing chiefly to a portion of the specula-
tive element becoming tired and selling
freely on slightly increased receipts.
Toward the close some strength was
noticeable on improved foreign buying,
n tie net change for the week is no
serious.
After a year of unprecedented activi-
ty n advancing prices. iron and steel
are quiet, with few significant changes,
partly because the season Of the year
Toe n % favor new work, and partly
also owing TO the fact that producers
are very generally sold up to the middle
of next yea Prices show no marked
change, plates and sheets being rela-
lively weak and among the finished
products, while bears are strong.
Activity in hardware is largely con-
lined to holiday specialties which are

The feature of the Goa trade has
been h increasing scarcity of btu

The coffee trade of the country, but
particularly in New York, has been ag.

influenced by the delays growing oul
of the unsettled situation Of the quar-.

A SURE CURE FOR GROUP.
Twenty five Years Constant Use
a Failure.

The first indication Of Group is
hoarseness, and in a child subject to
that disease it may be taken as a sure
sign of the approach of an attack. Fol-
lowing this hoarseness is a peculiar
rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is given as soon as the child
becomes hoarse, or even after the
croupy cough appears, it will prevent
the attack! 1t is used in many thou
sands of homes in this broad and and
never disappoints the anxious moth
ers. We have yet to ear of a single
instance in which it has not proved
effectual. No other preparation can
show such a record-twenty-ive years
constant use without a failure. For
