The opening scene shows the harbor OF
Marseilles, with the townspeople gath

Edmund Dantes. A sailing vessel enters
the harbor and anchors. It brings Dantes
home to his sweetheart, to happiness.

from which he escapes after years Of
wretched Imprisonment, by changing
places with a fellow convict, who, before
his death, has confided to him the hiding
place Of unlimited treasures. In the burial
sack he is carried out Of the dungeon
and thrown into the raging sea. He is
seen through the storm struggling against
the waves to reach an ocean rock, which
as he reaches it is struck by thunder

production of Shakspere's '"The Tempest -
This is one Of the most original and per-
feet Of Shaksperes creations, and in it he
has shown all the variety Of his powers.
1t is full Of grace and grandeur. The hu-
man and imaginary characters, the dram
attic and the grotesque, are blended with
the subtlest art. Though he has here
given to airy nothing a. local habitation
and name, yet that part which is only the
fantastic creation Of his mind has the
same pa1pable texture and coheres "sem-
bably' with the rest. And the prefer
natural part has the air of reality and al
most haunts the Imagination with a sense
Of truth, the real characters and events
partake Of the wildness of a dream. Even
the local scenery is of a piece and char
acter with the subject. Prospero's en-
chanted island seems to have risen out of
the sea; the airy music, the tempest tossed
vessel, the turbulent waves, all have the
effect Of the landscape background of
some fine picture.
No expense has been spared to make
this a great production, and besides the
scenic embellishments, company Of ca
pable players will assist the stars in their
efforts to interpret this masterpiece in q
capable manner. kEs D.

with picturesque peaked roof lines and
smooth, well-raked sides. 1t is a COM
mon sight in Australia, however, to see a

barn which houses the rest of the crops
of the farm. These enormous haystacks
frequently contain some thousands OF

complete, was 298 feet long, while its
width was 81 feet. The height of the
stack was nearly 100 feet.-Brandon
