Henry, the Democratic nominee for Congress from the Fifth District, ap- peared before the Democratic voters of the west section of the Mission at Duve- neck's hall, Twenty-fourth and Church streets, last night. The attendance was g00d and the man from the prune region was well received. He lost no time in warming up to his subject, which was an attack on the administration, imperialism, expansionism and all of the other isms repugnant to the Democratic party. He was gentle and tolerant in his allusions to corporations, for he is the president of a street raflroad which employs men and ple. money in its pursuit of wealth. Trusts, except they be of a prune nature, are ob- Jectionable to him. _He had no hesitation in saying that Old Glory should be hauled down from the flagpoles in all of the newly conquered isles and that liberty should be guaran- teed the natives in any manner suitable to_themselves Following Mr. Henry Judge W. P, Law- lor made a short address, in which he spoke of the duties of a Judge and the qualifications necessary for that office. Judge Lawlor was well received. Stephen V. Costello, A. Sweigert. E. P.

Before discussing the English comedy it will be necessary to define another ele- | ment of the ludicrous—that of mere fun. A man may be a comic writer without be- ing either a humorist or a wit. This ele- ment is the whole stock in trade of the variety theater, the Sunday newspaper writer and the professional funny man who is content “to grin through a liter- ary horse collar of slang and bad spelling™ and raise jaughter by mere grotesqueness. Such humor consists largely of capers and contortions of the mind and body, of ca- ricature, of practical jokes and horseplay. The humorist says, “Laugh with me’; the clown says, ‘“Laugh at me.” This variety is the most primitive and elementary of all humor. Vith savages and rude people generally it is the chief | source of merriment. From the days of the court jesters to the days of the circus clown It has been exceedingiy popuiar. “hildren, and even grown people, laugh immoderately at the capers of Punch and Judy, and the fun culminates when the iittle ‘tyrant unmercifully beats his wife. In the early English comedy the ludi- crous element came largely from this source. There are traces of It even in the miracle piays of the middle ages. In the play of Noah’s flood, for instance, the wife of the patriarch refuses to leave her circle of gossips and go into the ark. | After a lively cGebate, during which Noah | gets decidedly the worse of the argument, be seizes a stick and with the aid of Shem Ham and Japheth he succeeds in beating her into the place of safety. This was good fun for the rude spectators, and they foared with merriment. In the dramatic interludes introduced by Heywood in the time of Henry VIII the element of fun predominates. Not| only is there an abundance of buffoonery and mere horseplay, but there is a con- stant running fire of coarse Jjokes, ludicrous allusions, puns and droll rail-| lery. In “The Four P's,’ a Palmer, a| Pardoner, a 'Poticary and a Peddler, after | each had unmercifully rallied the others on_their professions, they induige in a | lying contest, in which the Palmer easily | wins, for he declares: Yet have I seen many a mile And many a woman in the while, Not _one good city, town ar borough in Christendot but I have been through And this I would you should understand I have seen women five hundred thousand. Yet In all places where I Lave been, Of all the women that I have seen, 1 never knew, upon my consclence, A single woman out of patience. The early comedy that of all others is most typically English In its sense of humor " is “Gammer Gurton's Needle,” written about 1562. Here we have for the first time all the elements which go_to make up a true English comedy. The later humorous drama became more re- fined and artistic, and it added other ele- ments, but In each case the innovations were adaptations from foreign modeis. Comic characterization was brought In by imitators of Plautus and Terrence. In the hands of some playwrights the characters became mere caricatures. In later yea Ben Jonson made the comedy situation. He it was who first marked his | characters with certain traits which they | are forever displaying. One character has which he constantly re- uations; another is forever ; the miser prates of nothing but gold; the hypocrite is everlastingly whin- ing; never for a moment can we lose st%m of the trade marks. This is mere fun. The best of Jonson's skillfully planned situa- tions are also nothing but mere fun “Gammer Gurton's Needle,” with all of its | coarseness and crudeness and buffoonery, | contains more genulne humor than do all | of the plays of this skiliful playwright. Jonson was a consummate master of plot and of comic characterization, but, lack- ing the element of humor, his plays are read only by special students. The true comedy must combine wit and fun and humor. It must sparkle with hits and repartee; it must have for variety a oodly amount of the merely comic, and t must send Its roots deep into the allu- vium of human nature. Aside from Shakespeare, few dramatists have made this happy blending, and that is why, aside from the great master's work, there are few great English comedies. Elizabethan Wit and Humor. In the age of Elizabeth the English na- tion, after a long and troubled childhood, entered upon its period of early manhood. It awakened all at once, as every youth does, to a full realization of its powers and its possibilities. It was teeming with animal life; it was full of the joy and the hope of mere healthy physical existence; it ran wildly into every excess; it dreamed romantic dreams; it saw visions; it bub- bled over with glad songs. It was an era of intense intellectual activity. air of London,” s Tyler, been electric with the dally words of those immortals whose casual talk upon the pavement by the streetside was a colnage of speech richer, more virile, more expressive than has been known on this planet since the great days of Athe- nian poetry, eloquence and mirth."” It was the golden era of English wit. The Queen, who was the center and soul of the age, was a peerless mistress of word play and epigram and repartee. A | nimble wft Was a sure passport to her fa- vor; her court became a fencing ground where quick retort and brilllant word thrust and parry made up much of the conversation. The royal wit spared no one. The Bishop of London, who doubt- less never had seen the royal wardrobe discoursed before her on the vanity of dress. “Let him beware.” she cried, “or T'll fit him for heaven, and he shail walk thither without staff or mantle.” Spat sent Don_Guzman as Embassador to he ‘The Spaniards send a remarking slyly: will send a man who is a goose-man; 0ose.” A noble who had offended her Beggea for mercy. “The lion,” was her answer, ‘never injures mice and other vermin.” Her wit plays through all of | her letters and papers. Parliament, ex. ceedingly anxious to know her intentions as to marriage, demanded of her an an- | swer, but_her answer gave little light. “Were I to tell you that I do not mean to marry, I might say less than I intend; and were I to tell you that I do mean to marry, L might say more than it is proper for you to know; therefore, I give you an answer answerless.” | No one more keenly relished a jest, but there were times when jesting was dan- | gerous. Harrington oné morning would | ask of her a favor, but a glance at her | face sent him away with the remark: “I| will not adventure her Highness' choler | lest she collar me also”—a joke more ex- | | pressive when it was new, since the Queen | When in a fit of rage had once actually | seized upon & nobleman and shaken him | vigorously. raleigh during one period 80 | influenced Elizabeth that it was whis- | pered that he virtually governed the king- | dom.

A few collections of bon mots were attempted. Lord Bacon compiled a collection “Apothegms,” or witty anecdotes, chiefly of the ancients. A single one will illus trate: ‘One was saying that his great-grandfather and grandfather and father died at sea; said another that heard him, ‘And I were I would never come at sea.’ ‘W where did your great-grandfather s father and father dle? but in their beds” Saith the were as you, I would never come in bed The best p the coliection doubtedly in the anecdote of the sal who was tried before the “wise fust-ass. A jest book entitled “‘Conceits,” pub- lished in 1639, contains many of the witti- cisms of the period. Here may be foun the bright epigram, “It is better t witty and wise than witty and otherwise and the story of the man named Gu "o was advised by the Mamstrate be fore he had been arraigned to give & goc nd report in the future. leed, the ancier ke books contain many genuine “Joe Millers” which are even now a.ive and | circuiation. The greatest body of genuine Eiiza- bethan wit and humor is contained in th dramas of Shakespeare. Few artists [ the history of all literature have know 20 well as he the secret springs of man mirth. He has mingled in his we every type of humorous composition has used freely the broadly ment of the early English ¢ “Comedy of Errors” for ing as it does upon a .udicrous confusion among characters identical in personai appearance, comes very near to the level of broad farce. Launcelot in the “Mer- chant of Venice” is a purely comic creat ure. He raises laughter by his antics and his grotesque speeches. Old Gobbo. his blind father, enters and the clown imme- diately seizes him and whirls him about ;'hs stage till he loses all sense of direc- on. Gobbo. Master young gentleman, I pray you which is the way to Master Jow's?

What a beard ba. ou got: Thou hast got more hair o hin than Dobbin my fil-horse has on his tail Launcelot. It should seerh then that Dobbi tail grows backward; of Shakespears uses his comic scenes with exceeding skill. They come ever as a con- trast. After the reader of “Macbeth” has been wrought upon by the murder scene, that most fear-inspiriug scene in all lit- erature, he is aroused all at once by tha maudlin babblings of the porter at the gate, who, having ‘“caroused until the second cock,” is now in a highly exalted condition. He is porter of heli gate he comments in drunken glee on the dif- ferent persons that he is admitting to the “everlasting bonfire.” Every play of Shal haps “Macbeth,” sparkies w: it word-play. Puns—seme of them extreme- Iy bad ones—are found everywhere. The cobbler in “Julius Caesar” is questioned as to his trade. Truly, sir, all that I live by is With the awi; 1 meddle with no tradesman’'s matters, nor wuman's matters, but with awl. 1 am, indeed sir, a surgeon to old shoes; when they are & anger I recover them. As proper men ever trod upon Deat's leather have gome upw my bandiwork. One could hardly open to a page of Shakespeare without finding a pun. Falstaff—My honest lads, I will tell you what I am about. stol—Two yards and more. Falstat—No quips now, Pistol; indeed, I am in the waist two yards about, but I am now about no waste; I am about thrift. Calia—T pray you bear with me, I can g0 5o turther. Clown—For my part I had rather bear with you than bear you, yet I should bear no cross {a plece of money] it 1 did bear you; for I think ¥ou have no money in your purse. The court fool, that typical product of the middie ages, furnished Shakespears with a vehicle for much fun and wit. In him we have best illustrated the old idea of the “wit combat.” He is a “wit-snap- per,” he must have an answer always ready and he must keep up smartly the shuttlecock of badinage and repartee as Aur? as possible. The fool in “King Lear” and “As You Like It"” are well known ex- amples. The grave scens in “Hamlet contains one of the best of these combats. Hamlet—Whose grave is this, sir? Clown—Mine, sir. Hamlet—I think it be thine, indeed: for thou lest in it Clown—You lie out on't. sir, and therefors it is mot yours; for my part, I do mot le 't and yet it is mine. Hamlet—Thou dost lie in't, to be in't and say it is thine; ‘ti for the dead, mot for the quick: therefore thou liest. Clown—'Tis a quick lie, air: ‘twill away again trom me to you. Hamlet—What man dost thou dig it for? Clown—For no man, sir. Hamlet—For what woman, then? Clown—For none, neither. Hamlet—Who is to ba buried in 1t? Clown—One that was a woman, sir; but, rest her soul, she's dead It is the humor of Shakespeare that has made bhis works the immortal creations hat they are. His characters are intense- y human; they are like u\-m? men and women. We smile at their foibles and weaknesses, but we feel nevertheless the reat common bond of human nature that as made them our brothers. re is something to win our sympathies even in Falstaff, that “great tun of flesh,” that droll, accomplished rascal, whose whole life was but a round of selfishness and sensuality. Despite his villainies there is not a single reader who knows him that would wish him punished for his crimes. There is a moment of real pathos as we read of his closing hours; Nay, sure he's not in hell: he's in Arthur's botem, if ever man went to Arthur's bosom. A° made & finer end and went away an it had beea | any Christfan child; a’ parted even just between twelve and one, even at the turning of the tide for after I saw him fumble with the sheets and play with the flowers and smile upon his fin- gers' end, I knew there was but one way: for his nose was as sharp as a pen and & baobied of green flelds. Poor Jack, farewell. We say with the Prince: “I could have better spared a bet- ter man.” He is so intensely human, so real, so delightfully characterized, so truly humorous in ever{ sense of that word, that he Is one of the glories of our Mterature. To give samples of Shakes, is al t impossible within narrow limits. His mm. ike all humor, is subtle, per- meating, perfusive. It spreads through a whole scene like a delicate odor throug a room, and one may not say “it is here,’ “it is there.” ubtless the most humor. ous scene in all Shakespeare is the fourth scene of the second act of “King Henry IV,” where the old rascal recounts the story of his vallant combat with the in- creasigg number of men in buckram.
