EVIL SPEAKING.

If you wish your child not to acquire
the habit o&~evil speaking, you must
form tho resolution never to deal
lightly with the reputation Of another;
never to repeat a Islander; always to
exercise thafAcharity which you wish
your child to show toward the erring
without this course upon your part
all your counsels will be as naught.
If you delight in dwelling upon the
faults of others, if you pull aside the
mantle of charity that should be
made to cover the infirmities of your
friends, your example will nullify all
your tea chings, and your admonitions
will be worse than lost.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Great Drama.

GreaT drama.
Madame x' adapted from the
French OF Alexander Bison has been
aptly named the greatest drama of
modern times. It has heart gripping
story, no melo- dramatic effects to
arouse the interest but a plain unvar-
nished tale Of a woman estranged
from her husband. who afterwards
sinks to the lowest depths of degra-
dation but who never forgets her
child. The boy whom she had to leave
behind and now grown to manhood.
The mother love is always predomi-
nant; she is always longing for her
boy and just as hateful for the man
who treated her so harshly. The play
is capitally presented by a we'll ball
snced company but it is the title role
which holds the attention.
.[iz= Adelaide French, an emotional
actress of rare ability. is intrusted with
this important role, and fairly sur
presses even her most ardent admir-
ers by her remarkable portrayal, a
most finished and artistic performance
throughout.
She is handsome and attractive in
the prologue while in the first act
twenty years later she appears as a
woman suffering from the effects of
dissipation and drug fiend as well.
Her change from one side of life to
the other shows the versatility of Miss
French.
She displays great emotional power
throughout but it is in the last act
that she is seen at her best, where in
the court room scene she discovers
yhe young lawyer appointed by the
court to defend her is her own son.
The original production is carried in
tact and rare dramatic treat is as
sured all who attend the opera house
Friday night.

are not terrified by the rosy prospects
which illuminate the Harvard gridiron.
At the same time Harvard does enjoy an
advantage which Yale cannot afford to
overlook.
There is still some concern in the Har-
ward camp over the condition of Brickley.
In the Yale game last year he was in
jured and after the foot ball season suf-
fered from what looked to be perna-
nent charley horse During the winter he
put on nearly twenty pounds of weight
and when the spring athletic season open
ed he was unable to take up his old spe-
cialty of broad jumping for the track
team. He had lost much of his old speed
and had to turn his attention to shot put
ting, in which he was only a mediocre
performer
Whether or not his injury and his in
creased weight will reduce his efficiency
the season alone will tell. Last year he
was equally valuable to the team in
drop and place kicking, and running and
line plunging When the season opened
he was in a class by himself in scoring
field goals. He completely outclasSed all
the other backs in end running. and as
a line pIunger eXcelled even the great
Wendell, who had gained most of his
fame by this ability. Take Brickley out
