THE ART IN ACTING.
Th t:i-ntlHl Point In Which tha Artor
IMItrm from Hie Dntiimtiil.
A grent French critic miM on re, In
concluding mi essay, tliut acting was the
lowest of the urU. He uliiiitteil that it
was an art, but only by courtesy. I
agree with him, ami 1 do not think It
requires much reasoning toarriveut that
coiiclimion. The uiinietio art means
Imply the interpretation of the creative
art. Do yon catch the idea? A tuiiul in
the beaux arts may sketch the Venus de
Milo on paper with such vigor that his
fellows are wonderstruck. But the vi
rile reproduction on paper of tln vtatue
does not place the artist next the home's
maker, uor does the representation of
Phedre put th actor on the pedestal of
Racine,
The sculptor, the painter, the drama-
net, tue musician they create. A thou
aand different persons, a thousand differ
ent things rush to be assimilated by their
genius. The effect is an agffregate of
wings taken from the whole of a na
ture. The individuality of the creative
genius is deepened, but is not aunihi
Uted. His art is of the highest, because
ne is the embodiment, the representa
tive of nature. Balzao said that to de
scribe a landscape he turned himself for
the moment into trees and grass, and
fountains and stars, aud snnlight, and
thus reached tlte heart of that which he
would reproduce. In other words, he
created tho landscape just as Uousseau
would create the same landscape npon
ixinehf:of canvas.
Bat for the actor let him storm Par
nassus as ho will; there are few leaves in
the laurel crown. It is his function to
represent the creations o? genius to in
terpret them to ttie public He has not
the thousand inspirations of the author;
be has only the suggestions of the glow
ing words. The actor is subservient to
the author, notwithstanding he may for
get his bondage for a brinf five minutes
and breathe the free air of genius.
There was an age in France, they say,
when actors were provided simply with
the framework of the drama and left to
improvise the nwt In fact, Goldoni, the
Italian dramatist, speaks of supplying
plots to the French king's players from
which they improvise the speeches. But
we have no evidence that the actors rose
above the level of the Chiuese stage of
today, where a similar practice prevails.
Mind you, this opinion is not accepta
ble to the public, I know it must be
npopular of necessity. ' The public
looks upon Siddons, Mars or Rachel In
terpreting the grand creations of gen
Ins and regards the actor as the em
bodiment of Shakespeare or Racine or
Corneille. The publio shonts with ap
plause when the actor trembles with
feigned passion, but this same public
forgets that the words, the action, the
xrression are ail simply echoes of an
other genius. In the clamor of approval
the creative art is forgotten, although
that is the baso of the entire structure.
No actor brings this genius nearer to
the heart of the pnblic, to be sure, bnt
at the same time let him remember that
he is only the interpreter, after all, and
the shouts are really for Shakespeare
and Racine.
And, to end with a suggestion, is not
the actor's art akin to tho journalist's
that is, iu the relation of tho hitter to
literature? It seems to inn that tho
playhouse and the newspaper go band
la haipl They are popular vehicles of
thought, aud are within flie ecope of
tho people. Perhaps this is not flatter
ing and perhaps it is unjust but then,
it is only u suggestion. Sarah Bernhardt
in San Francisco Examiner.

What m:id i.f a hie is it in our i-ol-lcgo.N?
Well, 1 mipjHi.-o it is much the
fcaiiieiis tlm lil'e in colleges which are
not eceh-Maslicul. Of course, church
student have many liior.i prayers to m;
and are erpertcd to observe tho rules

alter which all go down in silence to the
church, where morning prayers are sui J
and a meditation is held for half an hour
on some spiritual subject. Meditation
is followed immediately by the celebra
tion of mass, and altogether about an
hour is sjietit every morning in spiritual
exercises. TllPn follows study till break

Breakfast Consists of a bowl of coffit)
or tea, with bread and butter, at discre
tion in Uio home colleges, while abroad
one has a choice between coffee, milk
aud chocolate, but the bread must be
eaten dry. It is wonderful what a sub
stantial meal can be made of coffee and
dry bread when there is nothing else to
be hud. A fow minutes for recreation
are allowed after breakfast, then work
goes on till dinner time, broken only by
half an hour's recreation at 11 o'clock.
IT.AIN FARB.
Dinner, which is eaten at 1, is al
ways a good, substantial meal, aud
ample justice is done to It after the
rather thin breakfast. No study is al
lowed during the hour and a half fol
lowing dinner. All who are well enough
must join in the publio games, which
for the most part are played with great
spirit and keenly enjoyed.
At 8 o'clock the studies commence
agaiu, and class and lecture or prepara
tion for them, with half an hour's rei.t
at 5, go on until 7 or half piutt, when
thirty minutes are given to prayer and
the reading of the life of some saint.
After the prayers all go to the refectory
for supper, which, like dinner, is eaten
In silence, broken only by the voice of
the reader, who reads aloud some bio
graphical or historical work.
After supiier there is recreation, an.)
at foreign collegs this is alwuys the
favorite hour of the day. And very
pleasant it is to hear the fresh young
voices and merry hearted laughter echo
ing along the college cloisters.
At U the big bell rings out again for
tho last time that day, and at its first
peal t he talk aud laugh are hushed, the
groups break up, all professors and
church students alike make their way
to the church for night prayers. Prayers
over the points for the next morning's
meditations are read out, and after the
singing of a hymn all retire to a well
earned rest, which in most cases is only
too mxm disturbed by the noisy clanging
or me great bell in the early morning.
TUB WORK 13 UAKD.
Of course, every day is not a study
day. Sunday is always, more or loss, a
day of rest, and at b ast one afternoon
every week is devoted to outdoor recre
ation. Yet, in spite of occasional play days,
as they are called, and tho holidays twice
a year, the life is hard enough. It must
necessarily goon for some dozen years
before the student is called up for ordi
nation. The life of a Catholic priest is
Indeed one to which many are called,
but few are chosen. A great number of
those who go to college, at the age of
fourteen or fifteen, wil'u the intentiou of
becoming priests, do not reach the goal
of ordination.
In some cases health breaks down,
many grow weary of the routine and
strict discipline of the life, others dis
cover that they have no calling for the
ecclesiastical state, and go out into the
world to begin life afresh. So, from
one cause or another, the student fiiids
mat by the time he is ready for ordi
nation he has lost the compauy of many
who stood by bis side when he entered
college.

To Hava Xw Eyelid.
Harvey Chaffee, of East Valley, a well
known oil contractor, who was badly
burned by a natural gas explosion ou the
7th of May, is in the city for tho purpose
of having the skin grafting process tried
on bim. Mr. Chaffee was very severely
roasted. The skin was burned oil bis
face and nock, and ten holes were loft in
bis head. The most serious scorching
was that npon the eyelids. They were
completely burned off both eyes, and in
their stead at present ia the raw, in
flamed aud swollen flesh. The sight ii
most repulsive, but Mr. Chaffee bean
bis misfortune with great fortitude.
When asked if his injuries were pain
ful, he replied: "Yes, sir, they hurt ma
right smart at times, but it takes a great
deal to make me grunt. I can stand a
heap. You ought to have seen me when
I was burned. My ears wero ns big as
your fist and my head as big as a half
bushel measure. I was a regular niaht.
You can ask my wife there," and he re
ferred the reporter to a pleasant womau
who sat near.
The work of putting new eyelids nnon
the unfortunate contractor is to bo done
by Dr. F. D. Edsall, who said that lie
would cut the material for Mr. Chaffee's
eyelids out of the patient's arm. Except
for his burns Mr. Chaffee was in a
healthy condition, and his own cuticle
would perhaps knit more rapidly than
that from another tiersou. The new
eyelids will bo bereft of eyelashes, but
utility and a cure is what is sought after
rather than beauty in this case. Pitts

Twenty Pound Salmon for it Cant A plow.
The present wonderful run of salmon
has so iduttod the market that for some
time these silver sided beauties have
been selling at five cents apiece, but the
price took a tumble yesterday and eer
eral fisherman sold a boat load of fine
salmon, weighing about twenty pounds
each, at the pitiful price of one cent
apiece. One cent for a twenty pound
silver salmon, the finest quality of that
excellent fidi, is tho lowest price perhaps
that a food fish ever sold for iu this or
any other country, but salmon are so
plentiful that people do not know what
to do with them.
It is estimated that enough fish could
be taken there in one day to fill 1,000
barrels. Fishermen say they can make
big money by selling salmon ut a cent
apiece to the canneries if they will only
buy all they caii catch. One man caught
fourteen with a gill hook attached to a
hoe handle yesterday, and another man
claims to have found them in such num
bers in shallow water in tho Dungeness
that he threw them out with a pitchfork
and soon got fish enough to last for a
month. Fort Townsend Leader.
Shark In Lone Island Sound.
An nnusual number of large sharks
was reported during September in Long
Island and Fisher's Island sounds. To
these the name of man eater is generally
applied. As a matter of fact, however,
the true man eating shark (Carcb-.rodon
carcharias) is rarely seen on oi coast.
This species grows to a length of twenty-five
feet and to the weight of one ton,
being surpassed in size only by the bask
ing shark. It is a relative of the enor
mous shark whose teeth occur fossil in
the phosphate beds of South Carolina.
Any shark measuring nine or fen feet in
length is liable to be called a man eater,
and not without warrant, for all of them
will attack man with slight provocation
or when suffering from hunger, Forest
