HE usual paragraphs going the rounds
about the congressional seed distribution AS it,
was in the parable of the sower not all the seed
will be sown on good ground, not all will go tot
persons who actually need it, but it is fact thar if
one new and valuable species of vegetable were in
troduced each year throughout the countryit would
pay the entire expense of the agricultural depart
ment. Why is it that the farmers allow so much
sport made of the only department of the govern
ment intended directly to benefit them Of course
farmer can close his eyes and refuse to be benel
htted by any OF the experiments which the depart
ment may make and he can then truthfully say the
department has been of no benefit to him but this
is the fault OF the farmer and not of the depart
ment.

may have been the unwillingness on
the part of our English cousins to con-
cede that anything good could come out
of America, for in those days our plays
and players We're not as cordially re-
ceived as at present. But, be that as it
may, no competent critic will have the
temerity to rate Tree as Mansfield's
equal. Tree possesses method which,
while technically artistic, is ''finicky"
in it's overelaboration of childishly UNI
important details. The effect is to
mar the beauty of the entire work and
to excite resentment of the auditor
against the offensive obtrusion of this
manifest artificiality. Mansfield, on
the other hand, is apt to underelaborate
and to rely upon bold strokes of the
brush to produce his effects But he is
virile at all times. In short, Mansfield
is ever, Tree never, convincing. In
many roles Mansfield makes US forget
the actor: Tree never ceases to remind
us of him. To sum it up, Tree beside
Mansfield is histrionic pygmy.

NINY KINDS OF

THE competition for honors at the
forthcoming annual exhibition of
1 the Westminster Kennel club
promises to be fiercer than ever in the
history of this organization. The fact
that dog has won premier honors in
the open and limit classes in former
years will be no criterion that he will
lead the procession at the coming show.
Some of the finest animals that have
appeared recently al the various exhi-
billions in Europe have been secured by
American fanciers and will be benched
for competition at the coming show,
which begins on Tuesday.
Several new classes have been created
,, owing to the increased number of en-
tries Among the novelties that will be
seen is breed of 1og that is entirely
strange to the people of America. 1t is
called the griffon. 1t was first bred in
Belgium and is now very popular in
England. Griffons are variously color
ed, the most popular shades being red,
ranging from mahogany to fawn In
size and general appearance the griffon
resembles setter but is wire haired

There are many facts in connection
with the rise of Mansfield which make
interesting reading. The Londoners
thought him SO poor an actor that they
accorded him only the most meager
support, yet they flock to Her Majesty's
theater, OF which Beerbohm Tree is
both star and manager. This would
seem tantamount to the declaration
that from the British standpoint at
least, Tree is better actor than Mans
field. Try, however, to get a prominent
critic in the British metropolis to say
that, and you will find that he is un-
willing to do so, unless he happen to
be a member of that select little clique
which affects to believe that the sun
rises on the east side of the stage of
Her Majestys theater and sets on the
west side.
What, then, is the explanation? 1t
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1901-02-22

his thousands of admirers and sincere
Wellwishers have long marVeled. For
instance, Mansfield has way of eX-
tending one hand heavenward with his
fingers stretched wide apart He is also
given to the habit of SPRAYING his legs
while committing that offense, and the
combination is simply appalling to
those who earnestly desire to see this
brilliant actor do always the best of
which he is capable. Still another fault
is his trick of stopping suddenly,
throwing his chest forward and de-
pressing his head the while he vicious
ly spits out his speech TO the accom-
paniment of quivering body and out
stretched arms 1t is possible that
some of these mannerisms are tolerable
in certain circumstances, but Mansfield
employs them SO often that they can
not but make the judicious grieve"
But, after all, these do not seriously
affect Richard Mansfields greatness
They are merely unsightly little
splotches upon an otherwise perfect
picture of majestic proportions-like a
few poorly executed leaves in a mag
niticent painting of vast forest. What
the future may contain for Mansfield
he alone can determine. He has reach
his own career, but in the way of
friendly advice it may be suggested
that if he will resist the almost ire
sistible temptation to stray off after
false gods. fame such as at the outset
of his career he had never dared dream
of will surely be his.
Mansfield's rise from obscurity to
fame as shown in the following list of
engagements since he adopted the
stage as life work should prove in
teresting in this connection:

HALL PLAYERS AND D1AMoNDs.

Ball players are given to the diamond
habit About twice a year Diamond
Joe" visits the players of the leading
organizations and shows them the lat
est gems that he has picked up on his
travels. If it is about pay day, he is
certain to make some sales. A young
player who begins in the National
league at a fair salary looks forward to
the day that he will be able to buy his
first diamond and consults every man
on the team as to what he should pay
for the stone. When the players leave
their hotel to go to the grounds the
safe gets its full share of valuable
rings that are left behind. Some of
the Weather men can afford a small
diamond set in a watch charm or lock-
ct, and some even permit themselves
the luxury of a diamond scarfpin. You
can be assured, however, that the pin
is screwed to the shirt when worn in
public A ball player who has a sweet
heart or sister never considers that
he has done his full duty until he has
made her a present of at least one dia-
mond Players when asked why they
have such preference for diamonds say
| that in case they get hard up they
can get more return for good diamonds
than for anything else.
