Stage Readiness.

The London Echo gives the following
anecdote from a foreign contemporary !:
Colbert, the French actor, whose spe-
cialty was the impersonation Of Napol-
con l., was troubled with an infirmity
OF memory, in consequence of which all
letters handed 10 him to be read on
the stage had really to contain the
words he was to deliver. In some mill
tary piece or other the Emperor had
to receive letter from his adjutant
and read it aloud to his assembled Of
ficers. A certain Gautier, the wag Of
the .theater, acted the adjutant, and
one evening, instead of giving Colbert
the written letter, be handed him a
blank sheet Of paper. The actor took
1t, and, perceiSing the trick that had
been played him. returned the missive
to Gautier, saying with perfect gray
ity: -"Readslt yourself, General"
Gautier, who did not know a word of
the part and was too much taken aback
to extenporize, could not extricate him.

there was not such q connection.

THE WEALTH OF POVERTY.

Wealth bides with poverty. The wildins
rose,
Or little violet nesting by the stream,
IT'S these that set the gazing eyes
a-dream,
Not all the beauties of the garden-close.
IT'S not in mighty tempest where 1t blows,
Nor In the sea that shouts to cloud and
sail,
That music lives, but in the nightingale,
The wee, brown bird that sings at dusk
its woes.
Yea, and the crowns Of happiness and
love,
Grace not the troubled brows Of king
and queen;
But, Fate's free gifts, they deck the
hearts that move
In lowly state amid the quiet scene.
IT'S not rich Croesus, owner of the sod,
But passing beggar hath the peace OF
God!

chief financial centers. Copper has
perhaps felt this reaction more
severely than any other article be
which has taken place in that metal
and the fact that in many cases its
use can be dispensed with and sub
lstittues used. Iron felt the reaction
much less severely because prices
have not been pushed so unduly high
and its use is general and less OF a
luxury. Another sign Of business re.
action which cannot he mistaken is
the break In staple cotton goods in
the Chicago market. All classes of
cotton goods have been selling at re.
markably high prices until finally the
limit had been reached, and consump-
ton was being checked. For some
time past the shrewdest manufac-
turers and distributors Of cotton
goods have been anticipating a turn
in the market and now that it has
started, it is likely to spread beyond
Chicago. The greatest depression
will probably be in the industrial dis
tricts; the agricultural sections being
benefited by prosperity OF the far

business which has been hurt by the
financial action is the real estate
