STAGE LIGHTS.

The wandering life of circus per-
formers is well illustrated in the
case of quartet known as the -Four
Francois" now performing in Lon
don, three sisters and their brother.
Their father, a circus clown, is a
German; their mother, a noted eques-
trienne, is Hungarian, and the chill
dren were born respectively in Swe-
den, Holland, Hungary and Germany.
Nine. Nordica, the opera singer, is
mistress of the ungentle art of
punching a bag. This is a daily ex-
ercise with her, as she considers that
muscular training and subsection of
adipose tissue. The punching bag is
compromise. She desired to learn
boxing, but it was pointed out to her
that an accidental blow on the neck
or chest, even with soft gloves, might
wreck her vocal career.
1t is known to his associates that
William Gillette, the actor play
right, refuses to regard either pro-
fession seriously. He once went to
see Irving play Macbeth" sat
through the performance without
comment with a friend and then
started for his hotel. well, what do
you think of Irving?" said his friend,
as they walked. "He would be a
great comedian if he could only
sing" was the grave reply.
BE careful of your high notes."
said Adelina PATHS mother when the
diva was yet 4 mere child. The
daughter wisely needed the advice
and to that fact attributes a great
deal of her wonderful success. She
sang recently at a London concert
and the critics were unanimous in
reference to the extraordinary pres
ervation of a voice which has been
thrilling hearers for over 40 years.

STILL MORE ANARCHY"

The solid men who do business on
the Stock Exchange in New York,
having "shivered' on Friday last at
the prospect Of being asked to do
what tho "moonshiners" in Kentucky
are every day compelled to do at the
muzzle OF the Winchester, to-wit: pay
the revenue tax on the product of their
industry; and having on Saturday got
warmed up again to the point of revil-
ing the government for daring to
impose such tax upon them and
for having the impudence TO threaten
to collect ii, and calling the govern
ment Il crowd" which it was going to
drive off its perch" and dispatching
Nh embassy to Washington to make
Mr.. Attorney General climb down,
which that gentleman did with the
case and agility Of trust acrobat;
and Mr.. j. T. Morgan and Co. having
sent for the collector-who obeyed the
summons with proper servillty--and
instructed him that there Is some
difference between the treatment due
to them and to the "moonshiners'
under the same law; and that official
having announced that he should OBJ

this having happened, II recurent lit

Tho fear Of any OF the revenue officers

thought that OF all the transactions

would be the first to exert their influ-
ence for final and effectual solution
of the difficulty The solution Of
the difficulty where the latter con-
sists in obeyjng disagreeable law for
common folks is to obey 1t, neverthe-
less, or suffer the penalties of it. But
no such thing is meant here. The
solution" mentioned is to bulldoze
the officers charged with the execution
to hold it up until Congress can be
bluffed into passing another law
relieving them from the consequences
of their defiance of the former one.
The ease, however, with which tho
officers We're driven to take the back
track, and to apologize for their
threatened invasion of the sacred pre-
cincts Of ''the street" had quieting
effect OH the entire stock market. For
the same paper in it's issue of Wednes-
day, takes occasion to remark: "About
half million shares changed hands
and the tone of the speculation was
very firm throughout Prominent
among the circumstances that were
responsible for the course of prices
was the decision of the Internal
Revenue Commissioner not to enforce
the tax on collateral, pending further
, consideration of the subject by the
Attorney General and possibly by
Congress-"
1t would, no doubt, stiffen the price
of moonshine whiskey if the Attorney
General could only be induced to give
some further consideration" pend
ing" the shooting of the moonshiners;
but the latter get no such further
consideration"
What shall be said, anyway, of
financial system, which is in potential
control of our government and die
tates its policy and legislation, and
which becomes panic-stricken and
ready to collapse when a law is
obeyed, but revives and grows firm
| again when such disobedience is likely
TO be successful? That is our percise
condition today, in the light Of the
undisputed and admitted facts as we
have detailed them.
And what shall we say of the certain
effect by way of example upon the
people of such successful and boastful
violation of law?
We recall but one parallel In history.
For years before the outbreak of
the French Revolution, the Third
Estate were compelled to do all the
work and pay all the taxes. There
had been time when they owed some
thing to the nobility for fighting for
them, and to the clergy for praying
for them; but both of these had been
long past doing either fighting or pray
ing to any effect And the favored
classes, thus relieved of both labor and
taxation, enjoyed ''unexampled pros
perity." The Third Estate saw how sue
cessful this evasion of duty and
monopoly of privilege was, and the
lesson was not lost upon them. A
few frosts and consequent bad har-
vests destroyed the prosperity" and
gave the Third Estate Il chance TO an
ply the lesson TO their own hard case.
And when they went to breaking law
after the pattern of their betters.
they broke ii all to pieces. Divine law
went with human, and the very
foundations of society were swept
down In the wreck.
