It is the materialism of word painting. The senti- ments left to us by our sister come to us as the echoes of the centurles before christianity was even a dream, when Pagan Greece was & model for the world, from which the expanded world of the present draws its grandest inspirations, In the faraway shadow of prehistoric time the drama was the literature of Greece, contemporaneous with sculpture. Poecry and sculpture were co-equal in their birth, Pericles, Kuripides and Terence shared public honors. " The monumental marbles that crowned the Acropolis are dust and ruin but the lhou’ht crowded the classic t{ro\'es of Academus with applaud- ing thousands still lives In the studies of the world; youth of to-day, shadowed only by the grand conceptions of the master, of "him who wrote for all times. The splendid achievements of man's hand rish and pass away, but mind s eternal. The drama with us is Shake- speare. Shakespeare is the drama whoso lines will live as our language will endure. Universal in their reaching, undyine In their wondrous thouzht and expression, as fresh as they were in the days of old Queen Bess— fmmortal. In all ages the drama has been a reflex of the time. It deitied virtue, ennobled intel- lect, glorified honor, stimulated the humble and showed vice its own enemy. Painting was but a crudity when poetry and the drama were a power. Until tha decadence of Greece, and long after Rome had become the mistress of the world uander the Ciesars, painting was in its tottering infancy, and 80 continued until Angeloand Kaphael rose under the fosterlng patronags of the m‘lhql'wwers of the church under the pon- tiffs. "They founded that school known as the Old Masters---old to us now in the march of time, but as compared with the drama, young enough in nhuvlelrarhnoo. merely to rank as the drama’s gre: reat-grand child, Talking, thinking or writing of the dram Shakespeare rises before the mind’s eye ways. He is the be-all and the end-all. How ondeared to us of every degree, of every clime and nation has he me. We are told that there are spots upon the effulzent vlenty of the sun.

Hawmlet and the other inspirations of his pen unequalled since he lived are Shakespeare’s still and as Shakesperean they will remain to the cud, when old Father ‘l'ime shall roll up his seroll and say *finis.” But I detain you too long. My trade is to love Shakespeare and I love my trade. It has grown with my life. It is the meat I feed on and I thank God I have thriven on it. At the suggestion of Mr. Miner, three hearty cheers were given for Mr. Keene after the appluuse which greeted his ad- dress had subsided. Mr. Keene delivered his address with the ener‘lz and earnestness of a man thoroughly imbued with the sentiments ard feelings to which he gave expression, and was listened to with intense * interest on the part of every one present. Throughont the evening the most gen- erous jovial and fraternal spirit pre- vailed.” Pleasant bon mots wers ex- changed, agrecuble conversation in- dulged, while at times hearty peals of laughtér told that somebody had con- tributed to the general fund of merriment h{ a happy remark or a vlay , of wit. But among the none number of merry F“p‘e‘ seemed to en_ioy the occasion more than did the genial guest himself, His genial- ity inspired every person present, and a8 consequence the banquet and flow of sentiment closed as an event which will not soon be forgotten. To Mr. Balch, the modest manager of the Barker, to whose liberality the feast was due, belong the kindest wisnes of s appreciative guests, Mr. Keene, with his company, and the Elks, from Kunsas City, leave for the Intter place this morning at 10:30, via the Missouri Pacific. ——————— First preminm awarded Union sewing machine, 1600 Howard st. o —— A Horse Thief Caught.
