A dress rehearsal of the religious play
"Hannelo" was given in New York Monday
night for the purpose of enabling the au-
Ihorilles to determine whether or not It
should be prohibited as blasphemous. The
play presents an Ill-used child's dream of
death , and represents the Savior under an
other name. Nym Crinkle pronounces the
work as portrayed on the stage "novel ,
anomalous , slightly painful , but not at all
blasphemous. . It can hardly be a popular
play , because the populace do not go to the
theater for obsequies , and perhaps prefer
to take their mortuary lessons In some other
place. It will , however , remain a curi
osity. Inasmuch as It has cut away from
the drama of the moment and gone straight
Into the symbolism and mysticism that .are
Just now being taken up by art In France
and Germany as a relief from the pessimism
and despair to which materialism has driven
both the drama and literature. " The de
cision of the city authorities has not been
announced.
The Philadelphia Record tells the follow
ing Interesting story : "That veteran bul
sllll charming actress , Mrs. John Drew , re
cently had an experience that was as
unique as It was pleasant. She was playIng -
Ing In a southern town and accepted an In
vitation to attend a reception. Her hostess
urged her to be sure to keep the engage
ment , 'because an old gentleman is to be
there who was present at your first per
formance on any stage and remember * It
distinctly , though ho was only 3 years old
at the lime. ' She refused lo tell his name ,
and Mrs. Drew says she thought of nothing
else for three days , oven dreaming of the
old gentleman. Finally the day came , and
Mrs. Drew encountered at the door of the
house her old friend , Joseph Jefferson , who
said to her : 'Just fancy , 1 am to meet an
old lady hero today who saw mo act the
first time I ever appeared on Ihe stage. I'm
quite excited over H. ' When they got In
side the hostess confessed that she had
tried her little ruse In order to got both of
the artists to attend , and Jefferson nd-
mllled that Mrs. Drew had attended his
first appearance on any stage. "

CARl/STLE'S LIFE REVIEWED
Lecture llflllrorcd by Prof. Vincent nt tlio
MnlitRpr Art duller/ .
* Prof , Leon H. Vincent , the well known
Chautauqtun , lectured an Thurxday evening
In the Ltnlnger gallery on "Cnrlyle , " before
a largo gathering ot refined and evidently
deeply Interested people.
He began by asking his audience to go
back with him In Imagination to a stormy
night In February , 1SS1 , when a party of
three gentlemen were leaving London by
onu of the fast trains going to Scotland.
They were well known men. James An
thony Fronde , W. E. H. Lscky and John
Tyndull. It was aery unpretentious gath
ering , according to the testimony of a high
witness. These gentlemen were tdmply con
veying to tholr final resting place the remains
ot Thomas Carlylo. It un totally wanting
In that pomp and rtul dignity that people
think la befitting the burial of u famous
man.
man.What
What u contrast wan presented in the fun
eral of Fred Archer , the noted English Jockey
who committed suicide. When this man Was
bnrlsil business In Nowmarkpt waa entirely
suspended. Thrco lord * were among the
mourncrn , and it Is said that the prince ol
Wales sent a floral wreath. Thus does I'm-
land honor her great ones. ( Laughter. )
It would not bo fair to suppose that be
cause of this unostentatious burial that Car-
lylo's memory Is not revered by the English
people. H was out of respect lo his wishes
that the ceremonial v.as such a simple ono.
It Is well known that Dean Stanley offered
Westminster Abbey as n place of burial , but
th > old humorist made It Impossible that
this should be done. Ho made the remark
after some man with a good deal more
dignity of birth than ho hud been honored
with i.n abbey burial that "If wo do not
look out on the day of Judgment thcro would
be a general Jail delivery from Westmin
ster Abbey. "
Carlyle was a literary hero and In the
world of letters 1m stands so conspicuously
unique that It U hard to find another at
all like him. Ho has , however , been re
garded by uome as a man hard to get
along with , and such critics , while ndmltllng
that he was a great master of prose ,
Intimate that he was not a pleasant person
to live In thi ! same house with.
Here Is one Instance of his mngnimlty ot
soul. It was at the time of his great finan
cial depression. Amid a great deal ot clamor
ho was studying over Iho first volume of his
"French Revolution. " His friend , John
Stuart Mill , borrowed the manuscript for the
salto of reading It , and , without permission ,
Mill lent It to Iho young lady who afler-
ward became his wife. It somehow got Into
the hands of this lady's servant , who made
short work with Iho fruit of ! ? sr months'
toll by lighting her mistress's bedroom lire
with It. Carlyle was exceedingly IrrltabM
about such little things and allowed. him
self to bo made terribly uncomfortable ab ut
trivial matters , and when uncomfortable
himself he would make others around him
uncomfortable. But on great occasions ho
showed his nobility of mind. When lie
heard of the catnslraphe that had befallen
liU manuscript his first thought was what r
blow this must be to Mill and how Mil
must suiter. Carlyle said he would con
ceal the disaster from Mill. Consider
what this loss meant to Carlyle. It was
the only manuscript ho had , and It had
taken him upwards of four months to write
It. But while this accident gave htm grcal
mental worry , he was not discouraged , but
sot to work and rewrote It , though with
great difficulty , as he was a very painstak
ing writer and did not have the advantage
of a good memory.
He was deeply affected by the gencrosltj
of certain American publishers , who
although there was no copyright law in ef
fect between this country and Great Britain
sent him 150 for royalty on his work before
he had ever received a cent from Fraser
the English publisher. When he recelvei
Ibis money he went to Fraser and told him
that he ought to blush for shame that while
everybody had made money out of the booli
the man who wrote It with his heart's blooc
had not received a penny until his friends
across the ocean had sent him a handsome
sum. Ho was 39 years of age , with all his
powers most magnificently matured. Ho
had written some of the most magnlficen' '
masterpieces of English literature , and ye
his position was as Insecure as a man that
takes up his pen for the first time. Men
recognized his genius. You cannot deny the
blaze of a hot sun over your head , but they
did not know what to do with this lawless
genius. They tried to get him a position on
the Times , but ho did not want to write
according to Instructions. Then he was
rather forbidding in aspect. He never flat-
lered anybody and lhat was against him
Then came his saddest hour. He was so ugly
over his sorrow that he was positively sub
lime In his ugliness. This great blow
was the loss of his manuscript. It was
especially hard on him as he did not write
easily. Carlylo's method was this : Ho
would flll himself with forty , fifty or sixty
volumes and then set to work to get the
substance of them Into one little volume.
When he launched his famous book on the
world it was done In a rather dazed con
dition. After lie had finished. It he said to
Ills mother : "It Is all done and wo are to
go with the wind and the tide. I judge
that It will gain ten enemies for one friend. "
The world wont wild over this savage book
wrlllen by a wild man. Emerson wrote to
Carlyle , urging htm to coma to America ami
lecture. In fact , Emerson hinted at his
coming- over here to live. At tills period
the famous friendship between Emerson anil
Carlyle began , and It was a friendship of a
lifetime.
In England Harriet Martlneau started a
subscription for a lecture , and had no dif
ficulty In selling 300 tickets at a guinea ( $5) )
apiece. A hall was rented and the lecture
was delivered. There was a wonderful lot
of Information packed Into this discourse.
Ho was a rare philosopher , although his
oratorical powers were somewhat limited.
But his very sincerity of purpose made It
hard for him to speak In public. Ho once
remarked : "I suppose oven a sincere man
can talk tolerably well without telling many
lies. "
As the time for the lecture drew near Carlyle -
lyle became very nervous. Ho told his
mother that ho feared when ho got to the
hull and saw Ihoso 300 people , who had paid
a guinea apiece for llckets , ho would say to
them : "Good Christian people , It baa become
utterly Impossible for mo to talk about Gor
man literature or anything terrestrial. Ono
thing I will ask you and that Is to cover mo
with a tub and go homo with my blessing. "
However , the audience were liilensely
moved. They laughed and wept and ap
plauded , but Carlyls hated the whole busi
ness. Ho called It his exhibition. They had
paid simply to see him , and ho wrote to his
friend Ersklno : "If you love me stay away.
When I stand up there nlne-tcnlhs of mo
will bo gone and Iho other tenth going. "
Ills work , however , became remunerative
from that time.
The lecturer then touched on Carlyle s
wedded life. Mrs. Carlyslo was n wonderful
woman and well worthy of bolng the wlfo of
Hiich a distinguished man. She had lovely
dark eyes , a splendidly formed head nml was
the daughter of a well-to-do physician. She.
was full of flro and every ready to turn Into
ridicule any Imprudent remark that Cur-
lyle might make. In fuel nt times she so
oxasperaled him lhat ho told her who was
a little devil. She read Latin well and could
enjoy Virgil when she was 0 years old , read
ing him In the original. Her maiden nainn
was Welch , and when she first met Carlyle
she had no thought of marrying him. but
Blio regarded it as-ii pleasing thing to see
the most remarkable man Intellectually she
had over met at her feet. She would ridi
cule his Scotch accent and when she hud
managed to get him tlloriTUghly worked up
she would wheedle him back Into good
humor and make him feel so comfortable ami
pleased with himself that ho would toll her
ho bollovod she was a witch. She was very
outspoken In her dislikes. On one occasion ,

Carlyle was the most honest writer that
over wrote. Ho laid down 11 fixed rule that
ho would never write for momiy alono. That
ho would never sot down a slnglo Rontenco
that ho did not believe to bo the truth.
The lecturer closed by a quotation from
"Sartor Hesnrtns. "
