The whole world was shocked by Wednesday’s news from London announcing the indefinite postpon- ment of the coronation ceremonies which were to take place yester- day, and the dangerous. illness of King Edward. At 12:46, Wednes- day, the king’s private segretary made the following. official an- nouncement: “The king is suffering from peri- typhlitis. His condition was so satisfactory Saturday that it was hoped that with eare his majesty would be able té go through the ceremonies. OnjMontlay a recro- descence became manifest, render- ing a surgical operation necessary today.” The operation was performed at about 2 o'clock, an incigion about four inches in length being made near the groin and a tubing placed in the affected intestine. The patient bore the operation well, and his condition was report- ed as satisfactory. Dr. Cyrus Edson, of New York, explained the king’s illness and op- eration as follows: “‘Perityphlitis is an ‘inflammation including the formation of an abcess on the tis- sues around the vermiform appen- dix, and hence perityphlitis is hard to distinguish at once from appen- dicitis. Usually an operation is necessary to ascertain whether the appendix or the surrounding tissue is diseased. In the king’s case there is probably an abcess at the head of the largé intestine, where the appendix begins, and the op- eration was an immediate necessi- ty because the abcess had to be got at at once and emptied of its egntents of. pus. Of course I can- not say what further than the ab- cess was discovered by the sur- geons—that is, to wae extent the body. Under= aillapes gircum- stances he ought te recover in three or four weeks, but-after re- covery it would be perhaps four weebs before he would be able to perform his part of the coronation ceremonies, The king’s trouble is in his right side, low down.” The latest London dispatches re- report the king as improving, and high hopes are entertained of his speedy recovery. y S aanRESENSaIEERRENEE _ The case of Rev. Henry War- man, of Glendive, against the Knights of the Maccabees was brought to a close Wednesday, the verdict rendered being in favor of the defendants. NOTICE. Notice is hereby given that Mr. W.

The Ancient Greeks, Romans and BRayptinnse Used-Grotesque Pictures te Emphasise Their Satire — The Eighteenth Century Crase, The story is told of an abbe of the seventecnth century who was us de formed in figure as be was ridiculous fn dress, and as sensitive about bis physical deformity as he was vain of his eccentric attire, that while serving mass one morning Le observed a smile of contempt on the face of one of the courtiers present and: determined to avenge himself by serving a process upon him for appearance in court the Cellowing day. The offender, M. de Lassen by tame, knowing that things would go. hard with him. unless he could show some reason for his mirth, made a hasty sketch of the hunchback abbe, exag- gerating In sige the six black caps and ~ waistcoats in which he was wont appear, and when lw was solemnly asked to show cause for bis unseemly | mirth and: indignity to the holy church he suddenly displayed before his judges | the caricature of the abbe as lis “ex- cuse.” The likeness was so excellent and the cartoon so grotesque that the entire court fell to laughing, and the accused was liberated without a repri- mand, This is the first authentic case of the power of the cartoon in a hall of jus- tice, but It illustrates the power of the pencil in depicting the follies of the foolish and the affectations of the arti- fictal. There is no telling when the art of caricature began, There are a number of grotesques that have come down to us frow earliest Bgyptian times. The Greeks employed pictures to emphasize their satire, and so did the Kowans. All through the middle ages there were | numberless examples of ries” which, curiously enough, uyed In enforcing the doctrines-of the chureh by means of satirixing the devil. But the elghteenth century was the heyday of the cartoon. Beginning in Brance and overrunning into Holland apd .thefce across the channel into Rogidnd, the Good of cari- caturists carried everything before It, and it is safe to say that we read the bistory of the times with clearer vision and with more accuracy of detail for the mirror which Caricaturists held up to reflect the striking peculiarities of the mey and events passing before it. Gautier mentions a Spautiah cartoon- ist, Francisco Gaya y Lucientes, a mix. ture of Rembrandt, Watteau apd Ra- belals, who preceded the two great car- jeaturistn of the latter half of the eighteenth century, George Cruikshank in Eogland aud M. Chartet in France, Chariet is known as the father of mod- erp social caricature and holds as good title to Lis position as doc# Philipau to that of the father of comie journalism, with.e Charivart, the strongest paper of Its kind. Then came Punch in Eng- land, which stil! retains its subtitle of the London Charivari, for years the falthful if not the most highly pollahed reflecter of British life. Upon its staff John Leech, Richard Doyle, Joho Fen- niel, George du Maurier and a dozen men of lesser name kept Great Britain in good bumor for two generations. It has been reserved for Americt, however, to bring forth a new race of caricaturists, which for lack of a better title may be called the personal car- toonists, men who seize upon the char- acteristics of an individual and so ex- aggerate them that the subjects of the cartoons are known by the most prom!- nent features In their physical, mental or moral makeup. ~ True there was one man ip London a hundred years ago, Gillray by name, who had this faculty of dissecting his subject until be found his weakest polut and then unmercifully pricking it with his drawing pencil. but with hin the race died out. to be reincarnated in America. Gillray was a close observer eof people and events, Ile would sit in his publisher's window and watch the fops of the court as they paxsed and fasten in his memory-every feature by which a man would be recognized by his acquaintances. He remembered ev- ery story that related to the traits of character of those in, the public eye, and the St. James street of 1800 Is faithfully reproduced In bis art. Perhaps we Americans look ot the droll gide of life more than other peo- ple, but certain it is we have more and better cartoonists than elsewhere. The very quickness with which we see the point of a joke demands equal facility in portraying drollery in a cartoon. We sketch boldly and leave much of the unnecessary detall to our slower cous- ins: Then, too, our public events hap- pen with such startling rapidity that a cartoon of yesterday's doings would be flat today, and we.must keep ver much alive and be ready for a political ebange overnight. In other words, the alert America must have depicted iu his cartoon the very traits of character that bave made him what he is, the quickest and brightest of men.—Thomas Nast in New York News.
