and a green room" of boughs and bushes is erected to the right or the imaginary stage. When night talls the performers who have spent the day arraylng themselves, gather together in this structure, and await their turn expectantly The audience assenlnles on the ground. the men seating them selves in front, and the women and dogs squatting behind. The native substitute for an orchestra is started by the men clashing their boomerahgs together, and the women slapping their hands on their naked thighs. The per formers file OH singly, the leading man always going first AS each man ad- vances he is received with special shouts of applause and comes to the front to make acknowledgements TO the on-looker everything seems strangely suggestive of the civilized theater. All the details are arranged with an ordered regularity which Is not common among savage races, AS the clashing of 'boomerangs ceases the leading man takes up the first line of the chorus which is repeated again and again by all the tribe, It is char acteristie of all the tales that they tend to be tragic. The aboriginals are on the whole distinctly humorous peo- pie, but their humor Is of gay, light hearted type, and finds little expression in their corroborees. The pathetic and the picturesque are the chief things that move them to artistic creation.- Nineteenth Century.

SOURCES OF SUICIDE.

George M. Gould calls attention to the important part which he believes that eyestrain plays in suicide. He thinks that the most convincing and striking proof of the theory of this in- fuence in producing suicide pertains to the time of life at which the numbers of suicides increase, reach their acme and inclines. Presbyopia with it's doubling and trebling of eyestrain, &C., cording to the writer, occasions the in- creased disease and suicide at the ages of from 40 to 60 years. Other causes of suicide are discussed, and the article is concluded with reference to specific in stances of victims of eyestrain-Medi- ral Record.

JOKES OF THADDEUS STEVENS.
 Many a joke is credited to Thaddeus Stevens, who led the republicans in congress during the Civil War and re- construction periods.
 One of the very keenest of his jests, which is undoubtedly authentic, is so commonplace in sound that one might easily be forgiven for failing to take in its meaning. In his last days David Reese and John, Chauncey, two employees of the house of representa- tives, used to carry him in q large arm chair from his lodgings across the public grounds, up the broad stairs of the capitol.
 Who" he said to them one day, Twill be so good to me, and bear me in their strong arms, when you two mighty men are gone?"
 Such q question implied nothing short of a sense of intellectual immor- tality.
 When he had taken to his bed for the last time visitor told him he was looking we'll
 "Oh John" was the quick reply it is not my appearance, but my disap- pearance that troubles mel!
 One day a member of the house of representatives, who was noted for his uncertain course on all questions. and who confessed that he never investi- gated a point under discussion without finding himself neutral, asked for leave of absence.
 "Mr. Speaker" said Stevens, "I dc not rise to object, but to suggest that the honorable member need not ask this favor, for he can easily pair of with himselft'
 One aneedote always remembered in connection with Stevens illustrates his transformations charity. A beggar wo- man met him one morning as he was linping to the house.
 "Oh, sir she said, 1T have just lost all the money I had in the world!
 "And how much was that?"
 "Oh, sir, it was 75 cents"
 You don't say so" he replied, put ting a $5 bill in her hand. And how wonderful it is that I should have found what you lost"

DENArUR1NG ALCOHOL.

Danbury Hat Manufacturers Want Process Carried on Near Their Works,
 Congressman E. J. Hill of Norwalk was entertained Wednesday evening at the Country Club, Lake Kenosia, by members of the alcohol committee of the Hat Manufacturers Association and later at the Hat Manufacturers rooms, where a conference was held in relation to alcohol matters.
 It is the desire of the local manu- faeturers to have a bonded warehouse for pure alcohol and a building for denaturing established in this city un- der Government supervision and have the recovered alcohol refortitied here in Danbury. It is probable that With warehouse here, the Government would establish a laboratory ln New York for analysis in connection With this and other work.
 The laboratory would necessarily be established at a central point ike New York so that it would be easily access sible and samples of the denatured ar ticle used in Connecticut and New York could be sent there for test. A Government inspector would undoupt- edly be located nearby to be able to visit the factories and see that every thing was as 1t should be.
 It is the desire of the manufactur- CTS of Danbury to secure as free Gov ernment supervision as possible for the plant here and they are satisfied that, through Congressman Hills effort, they will get this. Mr. Hill has been across the water studying the matter visiting Germany, France, England and Austria. He found that in these countries it had been found that the simpler the requirements put upon the manufacturers the better. It had been shown that it was better to leave 1t more to the honor of the supervisors.
 MT. Fuller an expert in Alcohol, has given the manufacturers much advice upon the subject and they have framed set of requirements, which they consider satisfactory and would like to have enacted if a plant were established here. A copy of these re- quirements, which are kept private for the present, were given MT. Hill.
