R. Hawcis in Good Words. When Artemus arrived here in 1866 ho was a dyinf man. I crn see him now as he came on the platform in front of his nferior panorama, and stole a glance at the densely packed room and then at his*panorama, His tall, gaunt, though slender figure, his curly light hair and large aquiline nose, which always reminded me of a macaw, his thin face flushed with con- sumption, his little cough, which seemed to shake him to pieccs, and which he said was ‘‘wearing him out.” at which we all laughed irresistibly, and then felt ashamed of ourselves, us well we might; but he himself seemed to enjoy his cough. It was all part of that odd topsy-turvy mind in which everything appeared ‘most natural up- side down, On first entering he would seem profoundly unconscious that anything was expected cf him, but after look- ing at the audience, then at his own clothes, aud then apologetically at his panorama, he began to explain its merits, The tact was that Artemus intended having the finest scones that could be painted, but he gave that up on account of the expense, snd then determined to get the worst as the next best thing for his purpose, When anything very bad came up he would pause and gaze admiringly at the can- vas, and then look round a little re- poachfully at the company. *“This picture,”” he would say, “is a great work of art, it is an ¢il painting done in petroleum. Ttis by the old mas- ters, It was the last thing they did before they expired, T wish you were nearer to it so you could see it better, 1 wish I could take it to your resi- dences and let you see it by daylight. Some of the great artists in London come here every morning before day- light, with lanterns to look at They say they never saw anything like it before, and they hope they never shall again!” Nothing could be more impromptu, and therefore riveting, than his man- ner throughout from the moment he entered; he seemed to be doing every- thing for the first time and without the least pru}mmliun, and indeed, he was most unlike such mechanical ar- tists as Albert Smith, who used to say he could go through his ‘‘Mont Blane” balf asleep. Artemus was always in reality at high pressure. He was never twice the same; he poured out new jokes with prodical invention, and every gesture was original aud arose IJIE OMAHA DAILY out of the immediate oceasion. His finger was over on the pulse of the people; they wero always absolutely 1n his power, whilst he flattered them by appearing to be entirely in theirs, He would conciliate them, inspire pity, claim indulgence, throw himself upon their gencrosity, pretend to ex- ort himself, to labor under a depress ing sense of failur ven make m)]-i tal out of his poor cough; and then he was so deeply wounded, if some very mild joke failed to elicit applause, that he would stop and look reproachfully at the people until they shook with with a new sense of the absurb situa- tio At other times, when inter- Ty by laughter, he would look round with surprise and eay, “I did not expect you to laugh at that, 1 can throw off numbers of those little things, but T assure you I can do bet- ter than that. When he opened his lecture on the Mormons at the ptian Hall, he said quite apologetically: “I don’t expect to do much here, but T have thotght if Teould make money enough to buy me a passage to New Zealand ) should feel that T had not lived in vain, I'd rather live in Margate or here."” The heat was most oppressive and the hall very crowded the day I was there, and looking up to the roof, he continued: “But I wish when the Egyptians built this hall (a burst of laughter) they had not forgotten the ventilation,” = Apropos “of nothing at all, a little further on he observed, ‘I really don’t care for money; I onl, travel around to show iy clothes.” This was a favorite joke of his: he would look with a piteous expression of discomfort and almost misery at his black trousars and swallow-tail coat, a costume in which he said Lo was al- ways most wretched. ““These clothes I have on,” he continued, ‘“‘were a great success in America” (and then quite irrelveantly and rather hastily, “how often do large fortunes ruin young men. I should like to be rum- od, but Ican get on very well as I am!"” 8o the lecture dribbled on with little fragments of impertinont bio- graphy, more pegs for slender witi- cisms like this: ““‘When quite a child I used to draw on wood; Idrew a small cartloan of raw material over a wooden bridge; the people of the vil- liage noticed me; T draw their atten- tion; they said T had a tuture before me; up to that timo I had an idea it was behind me.” a man; I have always been mixed up with art. T have an uncie who takes photographs, and I havo a servant who takes anything he can get his hands on.” But Ward was sometimes besides a a sparkling humorist; he was a man of character and principle; thero was nothirg of the adventure—very little even of the speculator about him. Even in the depths of comedy he was tu- | always an the side of justice and vir- tue, and not with the big battalions, ““I ax these questions” (about Louis Napoleon), says the showman, “my royal duke and most noble highness and impovials, because I'm fan xions to know how he stands asaman, I know he's: smart. e is cunnin’, he is long-headed, he is grate; but unless he is good, he'll come down with a crash one of these days,and the Bony- partes will be busted up again. Bet yer life.” These comic bht prophetic words were written when the late Em- peror was at the climax of his power, and about the time it was so much the fashion to call the Second Empire a perfect success. Artemus Ward was a worthy and lovablo man; he was sound, blameless, shrewd, sensitive, and affectionate. His deyotion to his mother was like that of & little child; her comfort and happiness constantly uppermost in his thoughts, Af ene time he wanted to get her to EKngland —alas, it would only have been to weep over his grave! At another ho thought of going homo to live with her after meking his for- tune. His fame he valued guito as much for the pleasure it gave the old lady as for the cash it brought him in, He was the natural foe of bigotry, Pecksniffiavism and immorahty of every kind, There are many hits at hppocrites, formolists, shams, and re- ligisus scourdrels; but throughout the whole of his works you will not find ©01e saeer at virtue or religion, and in spite of a few broad jokes not quite in European taste, there is not one really loose or unguarded thought. The Times said of his lecture on the Mormons, *It is utterly free from of- fence, though the opportunities of of- fence are obviously numerous; not oniy are his jokes irresistible, but his shrewd remarks prove him to be a man of retlection” as well as consummate humorits. ““I never stain my pages,” writes Artemus, “‘with even mild pro- fanitp; in the tirst place it is wicked, and in the second it is not funny.” A Vexed Clergyman, Even the patience of Job would become exbausted were he a preacher and endeav- oring to interest his andience while they were keeping up an incressant congh making it impossible for him to be he: Yet, how very easy can all this be avoided hy simply using Dr. King's New Discove- 1y for Consumption, Coughs and Coids, Trial Bottles given away st Schroter & Becht's drug store, To Nervous Sutterers THE QGREAT EU?SPEAN REMEDY, Dr, J.
