Of tho work of tho Charles 13. Hanford com pany, who present tho comedy, tho Ta coma News has tho following warm discriminating appreciatien: "Rarely Is such n treat afforded to Tacomans as that offered at the Taco ma theatre last night by Charles B. Hanford and Miss Helen Grant ley, And to Taconm's credit bo it It said that one of tho best and most Intelli gent audlonces of tho season did not fail to show genuine apprecclntion of truo artistic merit.

Many years since, when- traveling with some friends In Mexico, Charles Santley. wns captured by hnlfbreed bandits and, being uuablo to pay the largo ransom demanded, carried off to tho mountains. Over supper the sing er, by no menus weighed down by Ills mishap, chanced to break into song, which so delighted tho brigand chief that ho demanded an encore. Snntlcy saw his chnuco nnd ex pressed his willingness to comply on condition that ho nnd his companions wero granted their release. The sug gestion was accepted, and for over two hours was the singer's voice raised In such cxqulslto mejody that tho bandits, truo to their word, allowed him and thoso with him to depart. Tim Into Joseph Mans had a some what slmllur experience. Years back, when with a companion buffalo hunt ing on tho American prairies, lie was captured by Indians nnd carried to their camp. When at his wits' end bow to cxtrlcnto himself from tho dilemma, his friend suggested tho pow er of song. Forthwith ho commenced an operatic selection that so delighted his captors that they loosened his bonds and urged him, at tho point of their spears, to continue.

'To soo an old man play a dashing cavalier, an old woman play a beauti ful queen, trading on their past fame is too common. In this the personali ty of Mr. Hanford and his leading woman, Helen Qrantly, leave noth ing to bo desired. He has a magni ficent physiquo, a handsomo face, a flno volco and is ono of tho best ac tors on the stage today. Miss Grant ley is very young to play such roles and is a beauty; possessing a loveli ness which needs no make-up and de fies tho brightest calciums. Sho is a slender, graceful nnd a fine actress. "Tho comedy is tho most boisterous of nil tho Shakespearean plays. Written in 1697, it has tho manners of old anonymous play, 'The Taming of a Shrow,' which Shakespeare revised, giving his attention almost solely to tho two loading characters, Katherlno nnd Pctruchlo. Tho old play had boon previously modlflod by an un known writor. Shakespearo's como- on the point of stopping from exhaus tion, the last passed Into the renlm of dreams. Then he nnd his compan ion quietly stole away. His wonderful volco on ono occasion placed the great tenor Mario In n some what invidious position. When travel lug with floino companions in Spain, he fell Into tho hands of a party of ma rauding gypsies, who demanded the customary ri'iisom. Mnrlo, tickled at the situation, answered their request In Impromptu song, which he delivered with such cxqulslto mock dignity that his captors witli unanimous acclama tion elected him captain of their band. The singer diplomatically acquiesced in their decision, but In the course of the following day contrived to uinkc his escape with his friends. On another occasion In Madrid the samo singer, as ho was returning late ono night from the theater where bo was engaged, was arrested by the po lice in mistake for n political discon tent. In vain he assorted his Identity. Ho was carried beforo their chief, who likewise smiled Incredulously nt the captive's asseverations. Greatly nngeiod, Mario vehemently demanded that his friends should be forthwith commuulcntod with, but the official shook his head and remarked that If Indeed ho wcro the great tenor lie possessed In his volco a sure menus of proving the truth of his words. Ten minutes later Mario was bowed out with many regrets and profuse apolo gies. When traveling to Paris with some other ladles, Mine. Grlsl had a thrilling adventure. At a small waysldo station a man entered the carriage, and It soon becamo evident from bis threatening gestures and eccentric behavior that he was a dangerous lunatic.

J! dies are all lacking greatly In buries quo and farcical olomonts such as wo havo now. Comedy, slnco tho tlmo of Shakespeare has evolved Itself Into many distinct typos, and In ono of these aro to bo found much pathos or poetry. In "Tho Taming of tho Shrow" Shakespeare keops up tho gen eral comedlal tendency while making tho dotnils serve a better than more comedy. "Mr. Hanford manages to glvo tho audience a very clear Idea of his real character in tho first net; in that short space of tlmo beforo tho shrew appears ho convoys the knowlcdgo that ho is generous, manly and bravo; that ho Intends to woo Katherlno be cause ho thinks It nn ndventuro worth trying and feels that if ho can inns tor her ho will hnvo a most beautiful wlfo, and an obedient one. His first Interview with her gave tho audlonco nn inkling of tho dramatic treat' in storo for thorn, for It had tho stamp of genius and tho strenuous lovo mak ing caused tho audience to go into convulsions of laughter." stricken, Mine. Grlsl retained complete presence of mind and with the utmost composure began to slug. At once the maniac was quiet; his whole nttciitlon war riveted on that magnificent voice, and he remained the most appreciative of listeners until the train reached the next station, where ho was secured. It transpired subsequently tlmt-ho was a maniac with homicidal tendencies who bad escaped from an asylum. An amusing story Is told of Lnblachc the celebrated bass singer. One day ns he was strolling leisurely through a French fair a cry was suddenly raised that a bear had escaped from the me nagerie. The crowd lied In ovcry di rection all save the singer, whose mas sive proportions precluded tho Idea of rapid motion. Amid tho geucrnl.com motion he among them all stood un moved, calmly awaiting the advent of tho ferocious beast, which sure enough came slouching rapidly toward' him. When within a few feet, It halted as though to gathor Itself togotheV for it llnnl rush, when Lnblacho stepped for ward and from tho lowest depths of his Immcnso chest sent forth such n thunderous roar that the terrified ani mal turned nnd tied.

Then "llfty thousand a year" was tho phrnso commonly used to describe the Income of fabulously rich men or women. Lat er wo took to speaking of "million aires." In quite recent times tho "mul tlmllllonalro" with twenty millions had reached tho limit of private wealth; then forty millions.

Strange Vauta About Aulmnli, Havo yon ever noticed that nil ani mals which chew the cud aro cloveu footed? Also that most of thoso which drink water by suction aro herbivorous, the carnivorous variety lapping It with the tongue, like the cat, dog, tiger, eta Sheep have no teeth In tho upper Jaw, and tortoises nnd turtles aro without altogether. Unlike most animals, horses have no eyebrows, and hares nro minus eye lids. Consequently tho eyes of the lat ter cannot be shut, and a thin mem branous substance covers them whon asleep. Tho eye of the owl Is also vory peculiar, seeing that It Is Immovably fixed lu Its socket and cannot stir In any direction. To compensate for this seeming dlsadvantngo It can turn Its bead almost completely round without moving Its body. If you were to keep a frog's mouth open many minutes, It would soon die, as owing to Its peculiar construction It can only breathe with tbe mouth closed. On the other band, flshes are com pelled to keep opening and closing their mouths In order to give their respira tory organs full play. It Is also a strange fact that tbe deer baa addi tional breathing places besides the nos trils, as If nature bad foreseen his great need of free respiration when forced to flee before tbe bounds. Snakw usually have tbelr teeth In tbe head, but one variety In Africa, whose prin cipal food is eggs, Is provided with a substitute for them in Its stomach. OASTOKIJl..
