IAGO DIsPLACES OTHELLO.

In 1881 the leading English and American
actors of the day, Henry Irving and Edwin
Booth, appeared at the Lyceum in magnificent
revival of OthellO. in which they alternated the
leading parts Each eXcelIed in IagO, for each
possessed the qualities which make up intel
lectual actor rather than the robuster character
istics, whether of physique or of temperament,
that are requisite for the Moor. OF Irving Mr..
William Archer wrote: In proportion as char
acter addresses itself TO the intellect rather than
the sympathy of the audience. in precisely the
same proportion does Mr.. Irving succeed in il.
His IagO, who speaks from the brain,
comes as near perfection as anything he has
done"
The criticism would apply almost equally we'll
to the cold. keenly polished performance OF
Booth. The American actor has himself left
interesting analysis of the character as he
sees it.
ITO portray Iago properly you must seem 10
be what all the characters think you are, not
what the spectators know you to be; try to win
even them by your sincerity. Don't act the vii
lain, don't look it, speak it (by scOwling and
growing all the time l mean), but think 1t all
the time. Be genial sometimes jovial always
gentlemanly. Quick in motion in thought;
1.-the and sinuOus a snake A certain bluff
ness CW hich my temperament does not afordt
should be added to preserve the military flavor
of the character. In this particular l fail utter
ly my Iago lacks the soldierly quality. My
ISOLATION is that We know him more as a courtier
than a soldier.
1t is a very signifca 1T fact that these two i'm
pc ersonations of Iago, the most notable in tse
history of the character, have been the work of
modern actors; that whereas the leading ira ge-
dians of the past have striven to portray the
massive force of OthellO, the modern school,
which prefers character acting to tragedy has
been attracted rather by the delicate subtIety OF
Iago Robust defamation, the full outlines and
the majestic style of former times have now
given way to the colder triumphs of the anaIy-
teal intellect and polished keenness of style.
II the tendency to dethrone Othello and exalt
Iago is to be checked, this will be done by an
actor who is able TO apply his intellect, as dis
tinct from his power of indicating the passions,
TO expressing the sublime simplicity OF the
noble Moor.'-tCiordon Crosse in Maemilan's-
New-York tribune., 1903-01-18
HUMPTY DUMPTY IN CORNWALL,

Now at that time in the interests of fishing
and excise z sloop Of " II was stationed off the
Cornish coast. The vessel was commanded by q
young officer of good family, and these over
strong expressions as TO the stability OF the
Logan seem to have piqued this young man
vanity. Perhaps he judged 1t a renectlon upon
the prowess of the British Navy that the WORD
Impossible" should be voiced N the hearing OF
its local representative. Be that as II may, II i
certain that on the Sth day Of April, 1S24, he
assembled a dozen OF his seamen, and landed at
Castle Treryn with the intention Of showing the
good people of Cornwall what the BRUSH Navy
could do
BY the application of their united strength the
seamen threw the Logan into such extreme
oscillations that the giant rock at last Sud from
its horizontal base and thUndered into chasIn
below. But for this fortunate check in its wild
plunge 1t would have been precipitated into the
sea
Thus. then, was the Logan overthrow The
gallant officer had achieved what had been de-
clared impossible by the highest authority that
Cornwall could produce. But whatever may
have been his feelings of satisfaction, they must
have been seriously damped by the manner IN
which the news Of his exploit was received py
the populace.
The Logan Rock constituted the chief attrac-
ton Of the district and the villagers of Treryn
derived no small part of their subsistence from
acting as guides to tourists and sightseers The
loss Of the rock meant TO many OF them the loss
Of a livelihood. Small wonder, then, that popu-
lar feeling high Threats were whispered
fears began TO be entertained for the lleuten-
ants lift and eventually a meeting Of the mag
istrates and landed proprietOrs was called with
q view TO representing the affair to the Govern
rnent.
But the lieutenant honorable and
worthy man Filled with remOrse at the mis-
chief occasioned by his thoughtless act. he re
solyed-if 3he feat were possible-to replace the
Logan AT no matter n hat personal cost
Through the agency of influential friends his
aee was placed before the Lords Of the Ad-
1niraltv with the result that loan of machIn-
cry was obtained from DeVonport Dockyard
A public subscription was also instituted, ana
the work of replacement was commenced IN
earnest.
The Undertaking proved even more ardhous
than had teen anticipated. -snlah army oi

ANGLICAN CHURCH TENDENCIES.

We are a Christian country. We are divided
in our opinions to what are the essentials OF
Christianity. But reunion is to be desired. AS
preliminary to the reunion of Christians
throughout the world must try to secure
uuity here in England, and the rest may come.
After ALL what England thinks and does to-day
the world will think and do Of it CAM to-mor-
row There is much to be said for this courage
Gus view of things. Canon Henson s searching
examination goes much further. He is evidently
in the line of succession to the great Colenso
who set the Church in a ferment thirty years
ago: he has affinities with that aTch-prelate
Frederick Temple, who as laid to rest at Can
terbury few days ago. the man whom half the
faithful would have stigrnatiZed arch-heretic
when ne was nominated first to a leading place
in the councils of the Church Time has amply
avenged these men, and completely vindicated
the wisdom OF telling truth as you see 1t, what
ever the cost. We well imagine what an
uproar there would be if Canon Henson were
now nominated to English bishopric. 1t
would quickly be pointed out that he had no
particular admiration for the institution of Holy
Orders: that he Knocked at the virtue of the doc
trine Of the Apostolical Succession; that ne
would stretch out the frienGlieSt of hands to
dissenters and enlarge the borders of the
Church. So he would present a united religious
front the world. Il cannot Canon Henson
