A.. the celebrated painter Of seascapes.
and no less celebrated scenic artist. A
lifelong friend of Charles Dickens,
Clarkson was once spoken of by the
great novelist as ''the soul of frankness,
generosity and simplicity. The most
genial, the most affectionate, the most
loving and the most lovable of men. :"
The elder Stanfield had some literary
ability. and having seen the i'll effects
of the slave trade in New Guinea while
on his travels, wrote books on the sub
ject in 1873 and 1889. From him his son
derived his abiding love of the sea.
Husbands of Great Wives
The representatives Of Claudius (Mr
| Inchbald and Horatio CMr Siddons)
| may be satisfactorily spoken of as the
husbands of their wives-and then an
end. Poor Siddons was an amiable
nonenity who had married Sarah KEN
| BILE much against the wish Of her par
| ents in 1713. But he was the best pos
| sible mate for the great actress that
| was to be, and got the most out of life
by dint of effacing himself and merging
his ambition into that of his beautiful
wife. Possibly Joseph Inchbal6 was a
man Of considerably more talent, as.
besides being a passable actor, he had
| capacities as a portrait painter.
| 1t is on record that kemble sat to him

season at the Lyceum Theater, New
York, scoring a brilliant success. It has
never been seen here since its first pre-

The most important characters in the
play are Betty Fondacre, Betty's cousin
Allen, and her secretly betrothed sweet
