3 THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE, FRIDAY, JUNE 27,' 1S90. MYSTERY PLAY AT MICE. Carton Spectacle Which Mingled The ology with the Autics of a Clown. John Swinton, is an interesting let ter to the N. Y. Sun describes the so called "Mystery Play" witnessed by him at the city of Nice: The play was performed in a weather beaten tab ernacle known as the Theatre Risso. located in a part of the city with which fashionale visitors are not apt to be familiar. It is approached through a narrow old courtyard, near which are scores of these very narrow streets lined with strong and high stone houses that were built ages and ages ago, and that are likely to stand for ages yet to come unless their demoli tion is brought about in the interest of sanitary science. It is entered through a eurious opening at one end, where a burly and large-mouthed individual (who afterward turned out to be one of the actors) announces that admis sion is free to all, an announcement which is qualified, however, by the fact that the desirable scats must be paid for, and also by the "passing of the hat"' at the end of each act of the play. The title of the mystery was "The Manger of Bethlehem." It represent ed the incidents of the advent of Christ, as recordi-d in the gospels, from the annunciation to the birth in the manger. The chief figures on the stage were Joseph and Mary, the Angel Gabriel and Satan; but there were also other characters not to be found in the scriptural narrative, in cluding a clown and his partners, who introduced comic features that were greatly enjoyed by the spectators. Id truth, one of the most singular things about the play was the mixture of fan tastic elements with the solemn mys teries of the advent. The house was frequently rent with laughter just after or just before the highest religious sentiment had been evoked. The characters of Joseph and Mary, as they appeared on the stage, were dignified and natural, and their dis course and intercourse was in every way becoming. The Angel Gabriel was represented by a stalwart and beautiful young woman clad in white, and she wielded her sword with suc cess against Satan, who appeared with the traditional horns and garb, and sprang around with agility in his vain efforts to do battle against the advent. The stage was well set aud the scenery was plain but appropriate. At the end of the performance the infant was seen in his cradle beside Joseph and Mary, under the guardianship of Gabriel. After having been notified at the door that admission was free, we paid for our seats, but this was not the last of the demands upon our purse. At the end of each act performers left the stage, took a plate, and went from seat to seat through the house solicit ing gifts of money, and securing a good many copper coins. It looked queer to see the Angel Gabriel in flow ing robes of white, wilh others among the actors, thus engaged; and it was pleasing to see that neither Joseph nor Mary had been chosen to do any part of this work.

Some paper, speaking of the the to mato crop, says that 72,000.00'J cans "were put up last year" aud refers to the old times when the tomato was called the "love apple," and held about as fair a match for "ground cherries" as food for man or beast. Mr. Ii. lL Sulgrove, the oldest newspaper man in the city, says he remembers seeing, when a boj in 1835 or thereabouts, several stocks or bushes of "love apples" growing on the north side of Market street, near Delaware, in the Eaiden of John Wilkins or "Archie" ingenfelter. They were not called "tomatoes" and nobody thought of eat ing them more than "jimson burs." They were not commonly grown, even for garden ornament, and it was a half score of years later before they came into even occasional table use. But he remembers that some of the doctors of that day commended them as a health ful thing to eat and the new name "tomato"' became familiar. Fifty years or more ago this was the fame and food value of the tomato, now more often and generally used, and in more forms than any other garden product whatever. Indianapolis News.

Sold by all druggists. Anglomania iu New York. Certainly there is a fresh outbreak of Anglomania in the speech of modish New York girls, says a letter from Gotham to the Pittsburg Dispatch. The new influx of actors and actresses from London has caused it. The worst symptom is a lengthening and broad ening of the letter A. "I'm sorry to part with you, Polly." I heard a Fifth avenue maiden say to her beloved pet parrot, "but I must have a bird with an English accent." I'm a d'isy I'm a d'isy,"the parrot responded, pronouncing '"daisy" in the way that happens to be like com mon to the Bowery and the Seven Dials. "That is very good, but unfortunate ly you are altogether New Yorky in everything else you say." "Polly wants a cracker." "How often have I told you that they don't have crackers nowadays in London. Say "Polly wants a bis cuit.'" But the bird insisted that it was a cracker he wanted, and so he was doomed to banishment from the bou doir, while the girl set out to find a parrot with an English accent.

Of course all restaurants cive their customers napkins. But I never could ' understand why the down-town cafes those where a man has to wait for his luncheon the same as he does for his , shave should force a man to use his ' handkerchief for a napkin or return to the primitive custom of Arkausas his coat-sleeve. One of these down-town j cafes, however, has made an innovation i in this direction which is to be hoped : I will spread. The proprietor evidently : ! understands his business, lor lie lias ' napkins. j The question of the proper way to : use a napkin is one that has been talked i about aud written of by caterers and ; people who are sticklers for table eti quette from the time the first napkin ! was brought out. You have been told i that fashionable etiquette requires that ' the nankin should be nut on the knee when not in u-e on the bias. I be- ! lieve there has been no deviation from this rate by the upper ten. The other day, however, a French caterer told me that any man in a dress suit who did not tuck his napkin under his chin, thus shielding his immaculate linen, was a fool. He said that it was done by the best Parisians. Chicago Tribune.

One Touch of Nature. One of New York's most prominent citizens went slumming with his wife and sister a few evenings since. Youn Captain McLaughlin's precinct and especially the lodging houses were visited. "What do you think was the most touching sight to me that nights"' he asked in Delmonico's last evening, and then he told how in a ward in one of the cheap lodging houses for women, on cots adjoining, was a girl of say twenty years and on the other was an old woman, almost weird in her squalid haggard ness. The girl was asleep with her throat and bosom partly exposed. As soon as the old woman saw the visitors in the ward she reached over the cot of the younger woman and drew the wretched overlid over the exposed bosom and throat. "That wretched old woman, in that tender act, showed the love of a true mother for a daughter, and they were total strangers," concluded the gentleman. N. Y. Sun. MOTHERS!
