THE: DEACON

DA1AONAV
The Captain Dick Dramatic Circle
of Pierz, rendered the comedy drama
The Deacon" to crowded house IN
Har'man's new hall in that village on
Wednesday evening, Nov. 10th. The
play was most complete and gratify-
ing success. TO say that 1t waa unique
may be putting it strongly. yet ia
afe to say that when the points of
portrayal of character, stage sitting,
costumes, stage mechanism and music
are considered jointly, the production
has seldom, if ever. been equaled by
home talent in an inland village. In
deed, the play was pronounced by
competent critics from outside points
to be far superior to many recent
home talent productions in more met
ropolitan centers.
'sThe Deacon" requires q we'll bal
anced cast Of fifteen people, and all
the parts were very creditably per-
formed. Doubtless the individual hit
Of the evening was the work of F. K.
Virnig In the title role. Every mo-
ment that he was on the stage as the
merry, biboloas, hotheaded Deacon
Thornton. there was something doing
and the house was in an uproar. The
JUNCTION with which this part was
rendered while Its broad comedy was
never overdone, is seldom equaled on
An amateur stage. VIM. 81. Hall as
the funny darkey, Pete was capable
companion to the Deacon in rollick-
ing fun. Mr.. Hall is born comedian
and is at home in black-face. F. A.
Boyer gave convincing portrayal Of
George Graef, the much wronged
hero. Edward N. Kane won un-
stinted praise for bis work as George
Darrah, otherwise Wheeler, the pol
ished william. The thrilling scene
where George Darrah is confronted
by the wife he has deserted was
haudled with great dramatic effect.
The work of Laura Boyer as the wife
was one of the hits Of the evening.
Miss Boyer has good stage presence
and the dramatic instinct and her
rendering of the scene with Wheeler
or Dairah, was the best piece of
straight acting in the r1ay and would
win hearty applause oa the profess
sional stage. Little Marguerite Boyer
also did work of surprising excellence
as the child, in thie scene. Mre. Anna
Bel field as the sentimer' al old maid,
with special sentiment for the Dea-
con. did good work. Her maiden lady
WAS attractive enough to be natural
Anna Bares was pretty Daisy and
Minnie Faust windsome and attrac-
tive Helen. Mrs. Julia Bentfeld as
the matron, did full justice to a
difficult part. herman Bentfeld as
Read, Darrah's accompllce; Paul
Boyer, as the county boy, and John
Berg as the parson all acquitted
themselves creditably. The Dramatic
Circle have received many requests to
have the play repeated, but 60 far
have stood by their originsl intention
of going at once to the preparation
Of their new play, which will proceed
under the direction Of Edward M.
Kane. The play, which will be an
nounced later, is said to be the most
ambitious they have ever attempted.

EXPERIMENTS IN TELEPATHY.

Translated from the Paris Cosmos.
by Public Opinion.-In my efforts to
discover the mechanism of telepathic
communication | used a Roman medi-
UNI, Politi, taking him to the house of
M de Albertis at Joinville. Having
read that Mesmer had at one time put
a woman to sleep by placing his cane
n a basin of water, the woman having
placed her umbrella in the same basin.
| decided to see if the same effects
could be obtained with my medium.
went one morning with Politi to the
border of the Marle, and requested him
to place his cane in the water, where
/ also placed my stick at some PAGES
upstream, at the same time making a
part produced a violent contraction of
the arm of the medium, who nearly fell
into the water, although | subsequently
discovered that the interposition of a
boat between myself and the medium
succeeded in arresting the effect. We
then returned to the garden of the
house and proceeded to make a series
Of tests.
M de Albertis Joined us in our prom
elade, and the following is his account
in an italian journal of the experiments
made: "De Rochas, Politi, and myself
went to the border of the Marine, q
river with breadth of 1870 feet and a.
depth of from Is to 80 feet, being very
rapid De Rochas was rowed to the
middle of the river. while Politi and
myself took another boat and descend

of about 1900 feet from De Rochas.
| had agreed with De Rochas that
when he made a signal by raising his
cane, | was to request the medium to
place his own stick in the water, the
back of the medium being toward De
Rochas. All of this was done. De Ro-
chas gave the signal, gave the order
to Politi, who placed his cane in the
water and waited. A few seconds
passed before the medium felt any eff

lently shocked, his hand contracted;
it was evident that the cane was pow
erfully drawn toward the bottom of

HOLDING IDEALS.

How many bright, energetic young
men have been graduated from col,
lege, determined to make themselves
felt in the world. and yet within ten,
hfteen or twenty years are found
tagging behind, their standards grow,
ing lower each successive year, and
their minds hardening into ruts.
Many shiftless, unsuccessful
merchant, many doctor without
practice, many lawyer without
clients, many clergyman without a
pulpit and many a tradesman whose
trade has left him are lacking be.
cause, after time, they grew careless
and Indifferent, and ceased to hold
themselves up TO the standards they
elected in early manhood.

moving, and to avoid ruts as danger
Gus to the supreme object of life.
| NO man ever succeeded or ever will
succeed in his life or work who does
not keep moving toward his ideal.
Any man is successful" SAYS
Chauncey NJ. Depew, who does well
what come to his hand, and who
works to improve himself so that he
may do it better. The man with an
ideal, struggling to carry it out, is a
successful man. OF course, there
are all grades of ideals, and the man
with the highest, given the proper
Tomato energy, is the most successful.
The world makes way for that kind of
young man. | know we would do it
in the railroad world"
Yes, Mr.. Depew, the whole world is
ready to adopt it. 1t is the law of
compensation in action. No man can
form high ideals and work toward
them all his life without being sought
by the world Keep your ideals in
sight, young man; work for them:
i've for them; be willing, if necessary,
to die for them, and all things will
gravitate toward you: all the powers
OF the universe will combine in help
ing you to reach the heights on which
you have fixed your eyes.
