Little Girl Badly Scalded By Falling Into Hot Water.

Helen, the 18 months old daughter of Recorder and Mrs. J. W. Tilton, was quite seriously scalded this Monday morning by falling into a pan of hot water. Mrs. Til ton had prepared water for scrubbing the floor and the pan containing it was on the floor. The baby was with the children in the yard and Mrs. Tilton stepped from the room. She ran into the kitchen and into the pan, upsetting it and her hands and arms were quite badly scalded. Immediate attention by the family doctor was given and while the little one will probably recover, she was very badly scalded.

Richelieu, the Commencement Drama.

A rare treat is in store for all lovers of dramatic art at St. Joseph’s on commencement evening. The fe great drama that will be presented is “Richelieu, or the Conspiracy” by Sir E. Lytton Bulwer, as adapted for performance by male characters by C. J. Birbeck. . S , The historical character and the plot of, the original play remains entirely intact. The changes that have been made are in the feminine roles. All lines that might in any way be of-'* fensive have also been carefully eliminated. In the adapted form the play is admirably suited to provide an entertaining and instructive evening. A few words from the 'author’s preface will be sufficiently explanatory of this deeply interesting subject, the men and the times when France practically swayed the destinies of the nations. “The administration of Cardinal Richelieu, whom history justly considers the true architect of the French monarchy, and the great parent of French civilization, is characterized by features alike tragic and comic. A weak king—an •ambitious favorite; a despicable conspiracy against the minister, nearly always associated with a dangerous treason against the State—these, with little variety of names and dates, constitute the eventful cycle through which, with a dazzling ease, and an arrogant confidence, the great luminary fulfilled its destinies. “It has been fairly remarked, by the most impartial historians, that he was no less generous to merit than severe to crime—that, in the various departments of the State, the Army, and the church, he selected and distinguished the ablest aspirants—that the wars which he conducted were, for the most part, essential to the preservation of France, and Europe itself, from the formidable encroachments of the Austrian House—that, in spite of those wars, the people were not oppressed with exorbitant imposts—and that he left the kingdom he had governed in a more flourishing and vigorous state than at any former period of French history, or at the decease of Louis XIV. “The cabls formed against this great statesman were not carried on by the patriotism of public virtue, or the emulation of equal talent; they were but court struggles, in which the most worthless agents had recourse to the most desperate means. In each we see combined the twofold attempt to murder the minister and to betray the country. Such, then, are the agents, and such the designs with which truth, in the Drama as in History, requires us to contrast the celebrated Cardinal—not disguising his foibles or his vices, but not unjust to the grander qualities (especially the love of country), by which they were often dignified, and, at times, redeemed. The cast of characters selected for the presentation of this historical study speaks assurance for its successful rendition. The Cardinal’s energetic words to the youthful Francois are their guiding stars: “In the lexicon of youth, which Fate reserves for a bright manhood, there is no such word as Fail.” 1 —Cast of Characters— Louis XIII, King of France

aspiring actors, those of the college world ip particular, for giving them a drama on which they may exercise their dramatic abilities with good effect. Few plays are so adapted for presentation on a college stage, and we are sure that our presentation will be, to say the least, a strong one.” Remember the day, June 15, 8:00 p. m., in the college auditorium.

Almost Total Eclipse of Moon Is Forecasted.

A lunar eclipse, which will be almost total in this part of the country, is predicted for Thursday night, June 3d. The eclipse will be visible over most of the United States, and can be seen without a telescope or instrument of any kind. It is predicted that the moon will rise eclipsed soon after sunset, and that in the western states the extent of observation will be greater than in the east. It is probable that in the east the moon will haye risen before the shadow has advanced very far. The eclipse, will be cause by the passage of the moon through the shadow of the earth. The moon, as a rule, in making its monthly circuit of the earth’s shadow at a distance of 240,000 miles. There are times, however, almost every year when the moon passes through the shadow. The distance it enters into this shadow causes the extent of obscuration. A partial eclipse of the sun is predicted for June 17th. This will take place just before sunset, although the exact time of its appearance in various parts of the United States varies with the location.
