Literary Criticisms in Africa.

Literary criticism is somewhtit cramped in the Transvaal, Africa. A Johannesberg journal having published an adverse criticism on tho opera company playing in the town, the members of the troupe retaliated at the next performance by a series of “gags” abusing the journal, the oditor, and the musical orltio in the most virulent terms. When the theater closed they proceeded to the office of the offending journal and did considerable damage.
