deRces of an education, places the use of ones vernacular at the head of the list In America, oral English Is almost ignored, and this despite the fact that quite recently a congress of educators in Europe has decreed that in the future the teaching of all lan- guages shall be oral. T have seen more culture accrue to the student from the study of oral English than from any other ten subjects in a school curriculum. How can this be otherwise when all learning is imbedded in print ed language. and the understanding of the laws of oral English means the power to extract the meaning of the text?"
 Another important course of lectures given by Mir. Hawn each session are those on Browning. Quite large class gather annually for these able and in- forming discourses.
 In Mir. Hawn's two studios in New York and in Brooklyn. people of all professions, of all the higher walks of life go for instruction, ministers, law yers. bankers. doctors of medicine, act ors. authors, lecturers and platform entertainers.
 The artistic finish and naturalness of MT. Hawn's method rank him as the most uncommon of the teachers of this art He has done more than any other leader in this art of expression to lift from 1t the burden of artifi- cfality and exaggerstion that tyros have put upon it. His thorough and fine method gives intellectual inspira- tion to his pupils and leads them to a symmetrical development as students of life as well as of expression.
 MT. Hawn's home has been for some years in Brooklyn, where his house is quite a salon.
 MT. Hawn Is author of volume, Die tion for Singers" whose editions have been more rapidly exhausted than, the publishers can furnish them forth. The little book is a treatise in the form of familiar talks to pupils and proves most interesting and profitable reading.

character and a costume and he will land on his feet and be that character. He does not know why or how. It's a gift a talent. You cannot analyze it. Put him in kits and he Is at once a Scotchman, with never thought of his German dialect to confuse him. It is spontaneous and natural. That's its charm. If he ever studied out the character the result would be wood- eny. He would be only 8 mechanical comedian, a thing ot rules and meas urements, as magnetic and heart touching as a talking doll"
 "The secret of my transformation" said Mir. Warfeld, as the interview ended, '1s that I was given the proper training with books and asaociations to bring 1t about. whether U not he hypnotizes us, David Belasco is peer tainly a stage magician. He can bring about results in the most tnexplicable way If he lived in India I imagine he would be the high priest of the won der workers there. I, for one, believe he holds that rank in dramatic affairs here.
 'Then I suppose the rest of the se cret is that I had it in me. l always thought I had. anyway"
 His Personality.
 In personal appearance MT. Warfield is not striking. Nature has done very little toward helping him to success. He is a small man. short and rather slight, with a small face that has scarcely a regular feature in 1t, judged from a beauty doctors standpoint. But his eyes are expressive to a degree. At his will they light upI sVith mirth, flash with anger or shade ! Eth sorrow. His forehead is high, square and over hanging, the forehead of a student and nP 1nVU nnYnndian One glance at it will convince any one that MT. warfield iS speakig we'll in- side the truth when he says he is very glad to be rid of false noses and all the rest of 1t.
 His mouth Is his other expressive feature. It is large and mobile. The teeth are strong. Sven and white. His chin protrudes and shows a marked de- termination or purpose, while his nose is the one feature that indicates the comedian. It approaches very close
 Were it not for his nose Mir. War field would probably have been an au- thor. an artist or a musician. But he could not resist the influence of that turned up nose. It led him to music halls and to burlesque comedy. His forehead and his chin have led him out of the wilderness of slangy jokes and ragttme.
 MT. warfield and his wife, who is a young woman of conspicuous beauty live while in New York in handsome and comfortable suite at the Hotel An sonia. Mrs. Warfleld makes good the beauty average for the family. When on tour Mrs warfield always travels with her husband.
 The domestic side of the new stars life is a very happy and pleasant one. It is almost Ideal. so devoted are they each to the other.

One of the most successfufI Southern ers In New York is Mir. Henry Gains Hawn. founder and head of the Hawn school of Speech Arts. Carnegie Hall. sAzr. Hawn. was born in Richmond, Va. soon after the war his parents moved From Virginia to Selma, Ala. The most Of Henry Gains Hawn's child hood and youth were passed in that State. where he possesses wide ac- Quatntance and large circle of friends to whom his marked success as teacher and frapersonator Is matter of great pleasure and pride.
 Mr. Hawn's alma mater is Washing ton and Leo College. Lexington, Va Even while pursuing his course at col lege he became noted at the South as singer and reader, he having made many tours of Southern cities and re- sorts. On leaving college MT. Hawn &C., cepted the chair of oratory in the fa- nous boys school, the Brooklyn Poly technic Institute. This position he held for six years.
 Mir. Hawn has held position as Pro- lessor of oratory for several terms in many of the noted colleges of the North, in Middieby College. Middleby, Vt, in William College, Mass, and others.
 For five years he has bee Dramatic Instructor for the Cornell "Masque," Cornell University. New York. The past three years much of his time has been devoted to perhaps the most iyn- poftant work of his career. so far; his lecture courses before the Brooklyn In- stitute of Arts and Sciences on Oral English. These lectures have been eagerly attended. drawing together most appreciative, enthusiastic. and in- tenfgent audiences. The lectures have been widely commented on and profuse- Iw~rsu Aa1 A~A 4,. / dailies. The New York Journal, in it's Educational Number, gives space to MT.

A dispatch from Norfolk reports that
a large fleet of sailing vessels are de-

Hatteras on account of continuous
southwest winds and a strong current
running north. The new current" it
is said, has been running at the rate
of three and one-half knots an hour"
While this movement of the waters
off the Carolina coasts cannot be called
a new current, il is certainly an abnor-
NAL accentuation of the regular cur

tween the western edge of the Gulf
stream and the mainland have been al
most constantly from southerly points
and blowing at times with very con-

with which United States Steel pre-
ferred hung below Fast nights prices
in the face of the firmness of other
stocks. Good advances were made by
Southwestern Railroad stocks, which
were fairly attributable to the COM
paratiye prosperity of the cotton and
corn crops, as compared with wheat.
The conviction became firmer that
gold would be exported to England
this week, as sterling exchange con-
tinued to advance and the London
market rallied on the same assurance.

tered in the furious speculation in
