posted at each of these and as we

impossible.
For time my companion did moth

no effort to stop him. But finally this
amusement grew monotOnOus even to

told me, 'tand often warned Dom Mi

Yes I answered. But the secret

THE TORCH OF REBELLION.
With a bound I stood within the
grim vault and searched its confines
with anxious eyes. True enough, the
place was empty. Not scrap Of pa

left there. The shelves that lined the
walls were as bare as Mother Hub

Paola stood beside me with the old
aggravating shipper upon his face,

Suddenly Valcour stood up and
faced him.

narrow passage and up the iron stairs

been removed when I was brought to

me to lag behind and try TO erect my
escape from the house.
But NaIcour was waiting Tor me at
the trap door, and called Captain de

A RUDE AWAKENING.
An American Has an Unpleasant Adz

Paris, Dec. 16.-An American visitor
has had an unpleasant adventure,
which was brought about by his cur
ious desire to sleep in a cab. At four
o'clock in the morning he left a res
taurant in the Boulevard des Capuchi-
mes, and stepping into a cab, told the
driver not to move.
"I shall sleep as long as like" he
said and at the end you shall be
paid" The cabman accepted the Of
made no objection. The American
soon fell fast asleep. When the taxa
meter indicated that he had had sew
enty-five cents worth of sleep, two Wo-
men emerged from the restaurantsand
desired to enter the cab They were
and when told by the cabman of the
bargain that had been struck woke
up the sleeper and suggested that, as
he wanted the cab whether it moved or
stood still, he would perform a. kind
action If he allowed them to enter aud
be driven to the Rue de Londres.
1T will cost you nothing more than
if the cab remained stationary" they
reminded him. Furthermore they
promised to respect his sleep. The
1zD reached the Rue de Londres.
where the women left it The Ameri-
can, still asleep, was driven back to
the Boulevard des Capucines. Next
morning he discovered that he had lost
$4,000. He made no complaint Yes
terday, however. he met the two wo-
men who he thought had robbed him
and had them arrested. They aIleead
that he could have been robbed byzanv
thief, or have lost his money. As no
positive proof could be obtained against
thems they were set at liberty.

lister, but I did not execute the work.
Doubtless in time I could open the
door; but the Emperor is impatient"
I saw that further resistance was
useless. Bending over, I fitted the
stone of the ring into the proper inden-
tatoin, and shot the bolts. The great
door was swung upward, 8. Whit of the
damp, confined air entered my nostril5
and made me shiver.
Reaching my hand within the vault
I turned the switch that threw on
the electric light, and then withdrew
that the others might enter.
But no one moved. The light fllum-
mated the full interior of the great
vault and every eye gazed eagerly with
in.
Valcour uttered a groan of baf1ed
rage; Piexoto swore horribly in a
scarcely audible tone, and the Minister
of Police laughed
GOOD God!', cried the Emperor.
with staring eyeballs, ''the vault is
empty!"

John Kemble did not appear to me to

Garriek, himself attempted to strike out
the grave digger scene from the tragedy

to restore it. There is not, in the COM

dured much caust1c criticism in his
time.
Schlegel wrote of the character OF
Hamlet: Many OF his traits are too
nice and delicate for the stage. and can
only be understood by an actual audi
ence or seized by a great actor"
Another famous critic, contemporary
with Garrick, wrote:
Among the requisites for the deltne-
alton of this difficult character are the
ease Of gentleman, the dignity Of
prince, symmetry Of features, express
sion OF countenance and hexibility or
voice, to give proper expression to the
vehemenee Of nassion, weight to the
defamation, and poignancy to the
spirited and satirical parts joined with
originality and fine Judgment"

more discussion. than Shakespeare S
