Clarence True Wilson lectured at the M. 1 Church 1:1 this city Inst Mom' ; evening to an au lience limited lo the .ip.icity of the room. His subject was ''Old Siiws llrokeii," nn I he handled it in a very able manner, lie presented, however, but one tide of the subject, secmiug to think nothing but evil cornea from the old maxims that have borne rejietitiou for centuries, and he accredit ed lo Shakespeare personally the senti ments the poet puts into the mouths of his characters. What a great combina tion of vice and virtue such a men till pro- cesa would produce. His anecdotes were short and snnppy and he held the strict attcntiou of his audiance to the close. "Old Saws Broken" is well worth hear ing, and when its parts are strung to Kcthrr in a little better order it will achieve excellence. Hrsi.NKSsCii.tNf.KS Mr. M. E.
