UNPARALLELED EERoIsM DIs- PLAYED BY A CHEEK GIRL.
Undergoes Awful Ordeal and Suffers Excruciating Pain to Preserve
 One Dear to Her from
 Death in the Alps.

The heroic records of ancient Greece contain no tale of bravery or endur- ance more worthy of remembrance than the act of a modern Grecian maiden-Mlle. Hadjiuazaro.
 On Saturday M. Hadjilazaro, mem Der of the Genevan section of the AL pine club, set out with his two sisters from Zinal for the mountains. Rely ing upon his expertness as 8 climber, and great knowledge of that part of the range, he did not take guide.
 For five or six hours all went we'll with the intrepid three. Roped to- gether they successfully sealed the Grand Cornier. The last difficult piece of climbing did not deter them. They felt sure of themselves. The girls were innocent of thought of danger, so completely did they rely upon their brother, who was first on the rope.
 They looked forward to the descent of the Glacier de Moiry. It is not re. garded as difficult, but all glaciers have one spice of danger-a concealed crevasse. At the height of 13,000 feet. or less, they had some hours of noun taineering before them before they were down again at Zina1.
 M. Hadjilazaro, anxious for his sis ters' safety, and feeling the heavy re- sponsibility upon him, took extra care, but he lacked that instinct which guides have. He could not be quite sure.
 Suddenly he called halt and bade the girls look out. He feared con- cealed crevasse. He bent forward to test the foothold. Scarcely was he on his hands and knees before the treach- erous snow gave way beneath him. His sister next on the rope, had but a few seconds to think and act. Her nerve never left her. Swinging, partly pulled by his fall, over the crevasse, she braced herself with one leg on

GEORGIA. WALDRON.

There appears to be diminution of interest in the vaudeville debut of Georgia Waldron at the Jacques this week, particularly among the ladies, it is doubtful if she aroused more enthusiasm even in the palmy days when she was regular visitor here as a star with David Higgins in the play At Piney Ridge, Miss Wal drons comedy work as shown Ill vaudeville has all the delicate urC that she displayed as an emotional actress in the legitimate and every thing points to her assured success in the new field. It is a real delight to witness the presentation of her com edietta Which Will Win" and local lovers of vaudeville should turn out in large numbers during the remain ing performances, particularly as the rest of the bill is so strong in novelty and comedy as to be thoroughly enter taining.

RESURRECTION"

Blanche Walsh, with an> unusually large number of players in support and also a very clever collection, before well pleased and enthusiastic audience presented last night at Polls theater, that strong and awe inspiring drama, Resurrection dramatized from the story of that name, written by Count Tolstoi. It is a story of Russian life, improbable in some respects possibly, depicting the career of pure young peasant girl betrayed by prince of one of Russia's high families. It brought out in detail, without any at tempt at concealment the depths to which a fallen woman can descend and the contrast, between the pretty young girl, just budding into womanhood, with a mind pure and simple and the low, degraded woman of the streets to which she had descended, was horr1- flying in it's conception. The beautiful girl i'll the prologue had become in ten years the besotted woman in the acts following The story is perhaps hap penino in every day life but it's presen- tation on the stage brings the truth home more wildly to those who wit ness the gradual working out of the drama The improbable part of the story might be found in the actions or the betrayer, who filled with remorse at the awful results of his wrong do- ing, breaks his engagement with princess to follow the besotted woman ino a Siberian prison to undo wrong he has done her and marry her. There is of course a moral to the story more vividly presented than any sermon could teach us and naayhap that was the intention of the dramatists when preparing the play for production.
 Miss Walsh in the character of Kau- tusha Maslova the betrayed young peasant girl was excellent In her ver- satiIe part and in dress, action and voice carried herself through all the phases without once failing to excite interest. Her work was difficult in the extreme and whether as the young girl, the besotted woman or the re- formed member of the women's prison she carried to her audience a sense of appreciation that made them enthuse more and more over her ability as an actress. She had a splendid support ing cast and particularly so Prince Dimitri as played by. Alexander Won Mitzel. Throughout this drama one would not expect to see much comedy
 but the jury scene in the second act
 was certainly as funny a scene as has
 ever been attached to a powerful
 drama and proven successful Tn this
 scene the character of the merchant as enacted by William N. Wadsworth | was a splendid piece of comedy and
 deserved the appreciation given it.

either side and bore her brothers weight upon her hips.
 What could be done?
 M Hadjilazaro called that he could not climb up. He did not even try, lest his sisters strength should give out as he tugged at her in the effort.
 Rapidly the sisters made up their minds. The one at the end of the rope united herself and went off to Zinai alone for help.
 Would she get there safely? The brother in danger, the sister support ing him upon her hips as she stood astride the crevasse in an attitude only a woman could have kept for long, did not know.
 AS the minutes one by one made way for the other, and heightened into hours, the noble girl felt as though the strain would send her mad. The rope cut into her hips, and the pain was excruciating.
 Her brother tried to ease her by cut ting steps in the side of the crevasse, and holding on to them, but he dare not attempt to climb. A slip would mean death for both in the depths. AS he looked and called encouraging words to her the icy cold water fell drop by drop on to his forehead, an imitation of the greatest torture known to the Spanish inquisition. To add to the horror. darkness came down on the mountain. For 12 awful hours they held out, Then, when they felt that human na- ture could withstand the awful strain no longer, welcome cry rang out Lights shone over the glacier. Their sister had brought help
 So as not to alarm the rest of the family she had descended by the Col de lAllee, and arrived at the village in two hours and half, at g.: 30 in the evening.
 Frantically she sought guides, But | things are slow at Zinal. It was hours before she could collect the five men she needed, with lanterns and Alpine life-saving apparatus.
 | Not till seven in the morning-and she started for succor at six the night before-did the rescue party reach the courageous girl and release her from her trying ordeal.

Prof. Borchers, of Aix-la-C -Chapelle, is said to have invented process of obtaining the metal calcium by the aid of electrolysis at a very low cost, so that it may play an important part as an industrial metal. Calcium is harder than lead and lighter than aluminium. It's specific gravity is only 1.58 It can be hammered into the leaf form, and possesses many characteristics which may render it valuable in the arts, al- though 1t oxidizes rapidly.
