PHICE 3 CENTS.

Xt> High Cf ■4y Nswsdsys. This generation knows almost nothing by stag.' experieoceOT pure high comedy except in the way of revival. What under the name of comedy ha* occasionally on our English stage is a product mu which has somewhat reached upward to tragedy or stretched downward to farce, or. more often, has burrowed the fill* feathers of melodrama. The true, fuller modern comedy, such as Moliere initiated, and even our best restoration nimedy playwrights have hut poorly imitated from him. and such aa once ur twice that greatewt comedy geuiua <>f this century. Labicbe. has at-h-iupted iu au age that aaked for lower things, is an unknown thing now un the

London slage.

Nuw thi« finer slid fuller comedy that we know nig more than amen-repteaen-tation of life, or even an interpretation of it. It is a larger thing altogether, for. first, it must contain sume element of not unkindly satire, with keen wit and broad humor, or it is no true comedy. not to lie merely iphcd. hut a mirror is to be held up to reth-ct the likeness and at time* the antics of human nature; but it must he a magic mirror, that shall bar* just such a power erf artful distortion in it as that we shall never ourselves be hurt to think we pcn-cive our own line-aments di«figtm-d or our own motions mocked. Finally, there must he xmie sort of elec-tric-ism—a lacking out erf the salient points of human nature, an illteli-dlirs-tiun ami an cnham-rmenl. It is clear there must lie this, for the realism loving audiences could not stand the puintlr** and loug winded talk of ordinary men and Women. -Fortnightly Review.

Thirteen is full of ill onu-u to some people and full of good luck to others. It brought great fortune to Cora Ed sail, the latest star to rise in tbe theatrical firmament. She went to •**• J. M. Hill, the manager, a number of times and failed to meet him. She resolved to try iflice more and make that a last effort. She was informed at tbe Union Square theatre that he was at Clarendon hall

reln-arsing. She went there.

As she put her foot on the first of the stone stairs to aM-end she remembered tliat slie was in Thirteenth street. It was the thirteenth time she had gone after Mr. Hill. She lived in a house numbered 13. had ridden down town in

13, and it was the 13th day of

the month- She was so frightened at

without 'im. But Shorty <

mouty strung thivi, an' Towed he could run the instertution. an' ho'did, too, atT '

made a success of it, you kin just bet. • I never see Shorty's bead fer takin' a

is hankerin'

could tell by the way Shorty that he wnz in dead earnest 'bout

I it. an' wo knowed it wouldn't be extry j healthy to refuse, so wo agreed to come. I •• 'All' 1 want you to b'ar in min', says I Shorty,’ -that the pmachi-r’* my frU-nd. an' that he's got to bo treated white. 1 want you fellers to behave an' act decent. an' if any galoot disturbs the moetiu', blamed if 1 don't put a hole through

'im on the spot.'

"Shorty'd a done it, too, an' we knowed it. so you may jest bet yer last dollar that we wnz a moughty well behaved congregation that night aa we squatted agin the wall o' Shorty's cabin an' listened to the aannont. "At fust I didn't take no special interest in wTiat the preacher said, an* reckon none o' the others didn't neither, but after he'd talked on a while he kinder warmed np to business, an - fer ’bout a hoar ha talked powerful eloquent, shorn, an' the way lie ripped them old rascals away back thcr' to Jerusalem wuz a camion. Before he'd gone very far we all got powerful intrreated, an' could a liateneil a heap longer if he'd a kep' on. "After that we tuck to goln' to rarrtin' reg'lar. an' afore many nights we got to lookin' forranl thrungb the day, an' feelin’ sorter anxious to her night come an' with it another aannont. Sborty allers set np in front along o' tbe preacher, an' sometimes when I looked np thar an' see him so solemn like rexnemlirrvd how be ost to mss it u Tout all 1 could do to keep from laughin'

right out.

"Wal, the meetin's kep 1 an' then one night the |>macher said he reckroed we yet to hev a Sunday school. Shorty said ‘Certainly,’ an' the rest nv ns agreed, because we thought it 'ad save trouble. Yon sec Shorty had got mouty pious, but tbe way he fingered them shootin' irons o' his n made ns leetle jubous ur ‘im, an' we didn't kno» but be would break out an' ahoot some : nv us 'fore bo knowed what he wax 1)001. j "So tbe next Sunday we met : Shorty's cabin to git up a Sunday actu ! Fust the preacher prayed an' sung. | then ho read a chapter o' acriv.ure 1)001 Judas betrayin' his master nu' all that, you know, an' then he axed sorter give our notions of it. After waitin' awhile, an' nohady else not gettin' np. Shorty rose Bn* auiJ: •• •Fellers, .this yere". a new lay to me, an' it comes a bit awk'erd, an' 1 mayn't be able to say nothin' o' any count, hnt I'm blamed if I don't feel like somebody ort to make a few remarks, an' Pm willin' to wag my chin fer all ther ia in it The parson wants our c yere whut he jest read, an' fer my part I hain't back'ard 'boot girin' mine. In tbe. fuA.rUoe I think them tharJewp

hours a aingin' them old chum*, and fer : makin' music lie wasn't to lie snaffle!’ '

1,-inmc tdl ye.

"Wal. we got lung fust rate with

Uiar Sunday srhoul. and ever Sunday Shorty'd explain to us 'bout them Hcript-

' 'led all id. give that thar Judas gouge 'fun- he quit. Shorty

j never could b ar a sneak, an' I reckon ^ I that Judas wux as low down an' misera- " 4 ’ ' le a sneak as ever lived, judgin' from

hat I've heerd 'bout *im.

•‘One Sunday, Tong two or three ■oulbs arter the preacher left. Shorty

| "I i-ali tell you a good story," said a local pnrfewor. "A friend of mine was

Minle spiritualistic show np in

was done an - he says, to my way o’ rea lm’ this yere Scriptnre 1 figger ont that we ot ttVTie baptized, an' this book knows iu business, so I reckon well go down to .the crick right now

xn' git that over.'

-.Stumpy hopped up to argy the question nu' come ont agin baptizen, bat Shorty shot 'em up in short order an' carried the pint his own way. —A leetle water won't hurt you, noIhiw, Stumpy,' say's Shorty, ’an' I reckon you needn't he so powerful akeen-d nv iu Yer ought to bathe once in j'er life, anyway, an' now's as good a time "Thnt wuz a purty hard crack at Slumiir. fer jooriu' the six years he'd Ins'll ni the camp be hadn't never bathed nmi. Still, Stumpy wux a mouty good hearted ole chap, an' we all liked ‘im. Hut'bout thet baptism. As 1 said, ilhorty carried bla pint, an' we all filed Hit au' down the crick, war Shorty put us under, an' we submitted mouty meek, l.r he carried fwo big ids tola, an' we didn't know but'lie'll u»e 'em. " Twanu't lohg afore Shorty's Sunday school got to be known a fer an' near \taotig the miners, an' sonic til 11 ei people come a- much as thirty miles to see it in operai ion. I remember one time s lot o' fellows' come over from Polecat Gnlch, an' they wux a ungodly lot, shore. They wasn't hardly in tbe house afore they began to laugh an' make light o’ the doin's. but they didn't keep it up Ion-;. I.nime tell ye, for the fust thing they Luuiv'd Shorty laid down the book in- wuz rendin' from, and pintin' a coo* pb- o' j list ols at 'em, said: • - We're goiu' ter hev order in this yere shop er know the reason why, Yn' the next derood galoot that makes a racket had better say his prm'ra, fer blamed if 1 don't drop Im in his tracks. We're glad to her visiton when they know 'naff to behave themselves, but when they don't they'd better stay "way or-hmig their coffins long with 'em. Tbe dryices 11 now purceed.' Arter that Shorty never had no trouble, an' fer four years that Sunday school has been a ninniu' right along, and today it’s flouruhin'."—Thomas P. Mountfort
