Mr. Keenu introduced his remarks by
quoting a sentiment from Chin lotto
Cushmau. He then said :
All , honor to Charlotte Cushman 1 Peer
less in the guild ot our ait among oar hon
ored country women. My brothers of the Elks.
I greet you In loving fraternity. The senti
ments just expressed , which you havn en
twined as a garland about the cup pledged In
honor of the drama , are ns beautiful as they
are suggestive. To the sister aits , poetry ,
sculpture , painting , the world owes its civili
zation.
The drama Is practical poetry. It Is the
materialism of word painting. The senti
ments left to us by our sister come to us ns
thu echoes of the centuries before Christianity
was even a dream , when Pagan Greece was
a model for the world , irom which
the expanded woild of the present draws
Its grandest Inspirations. In the faraway
shadow ot prehistoric time the drama was
the literature of Greece , contemporaneous
with sculpture. Poetry and sculpture wcro
co-equal in their birth. Pericles , Euripides
and Terence shared public honors. The
monumental marbles that crowned the
Acropolis are dust and rum but
tbo thought crowded the classic
groves or Academus with applaud
ing thousands still lives In the studies
of the world ; youth ot to-day , shadowed
only by the erand conceptions ol the master ,
of him who wrote for all times. The
splendid achievements of man's hand
perish and pass away. but mind
Is eternal. The drama with us Is Shake
speare. Shakespeare Is the drama whoso
Hues will live as our language will endure.
Universal In their reaching , undylnit In their
wondrous thought and expression , as fresh
as they were in the days of old Queen Bess-
Immortal.
In all ages the drama has been a reflex of
the time. It dollied virtue , ennobled Intel
lect , glorified honor , stimulated the humble
and showed vice Its own enemy. 1'alntlnt
was but a crudity when poetry and the
drama were a power. Until ttm decadence of
Greece , and long after Rome had become the
mistress of the world under the Crcsars ,
painting was In Its tottering Infancy ,
and so continued until Angelo and Raphael
rose under the fostering patronagn of the
mighty powers of the churcii under the pon-
tlfls. They founded tlut school known as
the Old Musters old to us now In the march
of time , but as compared with the drama ,
young enough In simple parlance , merely to
rank as the drama's great great-grand child.
Talking , thinking or writing of the drama ,
Shakespeare rises before the mind's e > e al
ways. Ho Is the be-all and the end-all.
How endeared to us of every degree , of every
ell me and nation has ho become , Wn are
told that there are spots upon the effulgent
plenty of the sun. The Iconoclastic spirit of
the age Is to drag the Imago from the niche
In the Ideal temple whore the Immortal great
are lodged In Imperlsable glory. Speculation
nnd theory ramble wildly , and may I not
say blindly among the mists of doubt striv
ing to rob blin of his fame
until they are bafogged In the ingenious
sophistries of a cipher. A cipher !
Playing on the word what Is a cipher ?
Naught I I leave it HO , as the bard has said :
"What's In a name ? " By any other
name Shakspeare would be cher-
Ishered as dearly by the world.
That drama which was given to us UUO
voars ago , by the poor clover's son , who ran
away from the Warwickshire village for his
satire on the 'squire of Chalcote and from his
bride In groun fanes of Shafting , to liutl his
fate In London , or what was given to us In
Shaksperean name what does it matter.
Hamlet and the other Inspirations of his pen
uiiBqiullod since ho lived are Shakespeare's
still aud as Shakosporean they will remain
to the eud , when old Father Time shall loll
up his scroll and say "llnls. "
But I detain you lee long. My trade Is to
love Shakespeare nnd 1 love my trade. It
has grown with my life. It Is the meat I toed
on and I thank God 1 have thriven ou It.
At the suggestion of Mr. Miner , three
hearty cheers were given for Mr. Keene
after the applause which greeted his address -
dross had subsided.
Mr. Koenu delivered his address with
the etteriiy and earnestness of a man
thoroughly imbued with the sentiments
apd feelings to which he gave expression ,
and was listened to with intense interest
on the part of every one present.
Throughout the evening the most gen
erous jovial and fraternal spirit pro-
vailed. Pleasant bon mots were ex
changed , agreeable conversation in
dulged , while at times hearty peals of
laughter told that somebody had con
tributed to the general fund of merriment
by a happy remark or a
play „ of wit. But among
the number of merry people , none
seemed to enjoy the occasion moro than
did the genial gtiost himself. His genial
ity inspired nvery person present , and
as a consequence the banquet and flow
of sentiment closed as an event which
will not soon bo forgotten.
To Mr , Balch , the modest manager of
the Barker , to whose liberality the feast
was due , belong the kindest wisnos of
his appreciative guests.
Mr. Keene , with hi ; company , and the
Elks , from Kansas City , leave for the
latter place this morning at 10:30 : , via the
Missouri Pacific.
