falls into the cauldron. he dies with
one regret only that he had not been
able to do enough evil. 1t is said
that Shakespeare received his idea
for Shylock in The Merchant of
Venice from the character of Barahas.
But between Barabas. the Jew. and
Shylock, the jew, there is a world OF
difference. Compared with the artoc.
tties of Barabas, the cruelty of Shy
lock seems like school-boy Joke.
This difference in treatment of the
Jewish character is probably due to
Shakespeare's advanced ideas along
that line.
The plot to the drama is not we'll
worked out. Marlowe was ayerse
to being held down by anything like
form, and when he was not tram
melled by the limitations of any
story proper, as in The Jew of Malta,
he was able to develop his most
beautiful poetry. AT the first ex-
animation there seems to be no plot
whatever. Certainly, there is no
gradual working up step by step to
n definite climax and then sweep,
downward to the conclusion, such as
there should be in a properly ad-
justed plot. The impression one gets
from the whole play. is one Of horror
caused by one scene of cruelty after
another, without definite connection
between scenes.

promptly behaves himself like n
beast. Maddened with an intense
hatred he no longer seems human.
He conceives of the cruelest sort OF
tortures, and then demon like chuck

plans Others equally horrible. Even
the small amount of affection
that he cherished toward his daugh.
ter was driven away, for the reason
that she had entered convent. in
despair over his wicked deeds. Jok-
ing with his slave, Ithamore, and
heaping curses upon his daughter s
name he prepares a pot of poisoned
rice with which he intends to kill his
daughter and all the nuns in the
convent. When he hears the bells
ringing for the death of the nuns
he says to Ithamore:
There is no music equal to a
Christians knell:
How sweet the bells ring now the
nuns are dead,
That sound mt other times like

was afraid the poison had not
wrought;
Or though 1t wrought, it would
have done no good:
Now all are dead, not one remains
alive"
Ithamore says:
DO you not sorrow for your
daughters death?"
Barabas answers:
No. but grieve because she lived
so long"
He and lthamore kill one of the
friars and accuse the other of the
murder, and then rub their hands
with Joy over the thought of the Joke
they had played. When Barabas

The Jew Of Malta.
BY MISS RUTH RALsroN

In Marlowe's play, The jew of
Malta, perhaps as well ms iu any
other, can he shown the general
characteristics of the dramas just
previous to Shakespeare time.
First, to Marlowe may he given the
credit of discovering the beauty and
power of blank verse. and by this
means infusing into the old cut-and-
dried dramatic forms n new fire and
life. His plays, unlike Shakespeare =,
are totally devoid of any humor or
fancy. His characters for the most
part are Qip) types OF colossal pas
sion rather than clearly defined in
dividuals intended to serve a definite
purpose In the working out ofa plot.
We find n growing knowledge of
what n drama should be. as distin-
guished from the crude series OF
tableaux which had been acted by
characters, anything but life like.
Some passages I'm The jew of Malta,
are marked by stateliness, Others are
infused with an unforgetablem melody,
still Others are full of the widest
tragic Imagination.
To us the ferocities of the middle
ages as depicted here seem far too
strong. But on this very account
the picture IL n true one. Marlowe's
characters are truthful portrayal
Of the men OF the time, with whom to
desire thing was to have 1t, to
want n thing done, was to do It with
out hesitation, regret, or pricks of
conscience.
Barabas, the jew, Is an unnatural
creature. He has been treated by
the Christians like beast, and he

from FIVE to seven tons to the

it up is comparatively light it can
be easily seen that they will come
out on top of the heap. Yet this
profit is very small when taken
in comparison with fruit as an

AtAh
For some minutes the young man
had been talking OF the weather. Pro-
ceeding from casual reference to the
evenings temperature, he plunged into
q spirited discussion Of the climate of
the United States in general, its ad.-
vantages, Its eccentricities and the
chief respects wherein It differs from
that Of the British Isles, with special
reference to the relative conditions In
New York and London.
Presently, by an abrupt transition,
he broke away from the subject.
IL came here tonight to say some
thing to you, Miss Morton, something
that means great deal to me-"
THAT sounds interesting. Why don't
you say IT."
Because now that I am here, 1t
seems very hard to say. As was
coming along the street, knew just
how l wanted to express myself, but
now I'm all tangled up and don't know
where to begin"
How mysterious! Does that hap

please don't laugh at me. I shall
