never his the care. The situation is one of great difficulty, for in a large part of the des- tute regions, there is certain to be violence and perhaps open rebellion, if some adequate. and prompt reli-f is not afforded. The prefee ture of Ta'ao Cha Fu in Shantung, is distinguished for the lawiesence of its population, even in ordinary yenın, and it is not reasonable to expect that there will be quiet in this region. The same is trug of the prefecture of Hsu Chod Fu in Kiang-y, a district which has been the inexhaustible hotbed of lawless border raids in times of scarcity, roids which for years involved a large part of the province of Shantung in the miseries of guerilla warfare In the north western part of Shan tung, and over the Chihlt border, the crops are so much better that grain is exported from that region to the south. The local magistries of at least three of these districts, with that calm defiance of the Inws of nature wh ch so often characterises the Chinese official, have issued proclamations forbidding the export of grain of any kind either in carts, barrows, on the back of animals, or otherwise. Those who are found guilty of endeavouring to take grain away from these districts, may be robbed with impunity, for the magistrates will not punish the robbers. Such is said to be the tener of the proclimations recently issued, trocla- mations which are not unlikely to produce much mischief. The situation is a serious one in every aspect, and should receive the early and the earnest attention of the Chinese Government. Cholera has Leen very fatal in western Shantung, and strange to say continues long after the frost has fallen, anunusual circumstance, Many nie frightened to death. Whole familes
have become ex'inct.
SARA BERNHARDT INTER-
·VIEWED.
The fortunate, few who are familiar with the Green Room of the Lyceum, the old, shabby Green Room, with its comic Corinthian pillars, its tawdry wallpaper, and its framed Macready playbills would hrdly recognis-it in its present guise. It has been turned for the nonce into the brine of a stage, divinity, literally a shrine, indeed, for there is something curiously nitar-like in the large glass, surmounting a white-dipped dressing-table, decked with innumerable wax candles, and profusely littered with bares' feet, powder-puffs, enamels, brushes, and rouge-pots, which fill one end of the room. At the cher end stands a screen covered with the various Directoire costumes worn by the heroine of "La Tosca," is the dressing-room of Sara Bernhardt Aasate line of The Star is ushered into this sanctum, he is courteously greeted, and pressed to accept one of those terrible Caporal cigarettes which Frenchmen are not afraid to smoke, by a poly gentleman, dark of hue and fiercely mustachioed, with an air of the Spanish hidalgo, whose incie presence here has all the importance of a revelation. For M. Damala, as all the world knows, in the husband of Mdine, Bernhard, and there have' lately been ugly rumors of a certain marriage contracted.in haste having len repented of ai leisure, of moceedings for di orce, and what vot-to all of which rumors M. Damala's preser ce in his wife's dressing-room is a crushing contradiction
Mdme. Bernhardt is not in form to night, though the audience in front" would never suspect it. Since Monday, when, she was in excellent voice, she has caught & severe chill, and, off the stage,
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1888.
"In all yourglobe-trotting experience, Madame, where have you found the meat sympathetic public 7
"Nowhere more sympathetic than in London, I delight in London audiences. The absence of a claque-you know I abolished the claque at the Porte St. Martin ?the sincerity of the applause, and the courteous consideration shown in reserving it until the scene, or act, has come to an end-these things are all most agreeable to me. Yet I am never so nervous as in Lon. don."
How is that?"
The more indulgent my audience, the more, anxiou I am to please, the more I dread fallure to please. Ofen and often, on first nights always, my teeth chatter, 1 tremble all over, and am really sick with fear. Before a cold, unrespon sive audience, it is just the other way. Opposi tion braces me up like a tonic. On the at any rate, I am always ready for a fight,
Are, you speaking now, Madame, of your feelings before or during the time you are on the stage
"Oh, before. While I am actually playing I don't give a thought to my audience. I dan's even see them. I am entirely lost in my part."
"Here we are getting, are we not, on to that much-debated ground of Diderot's famous Paradox' of Acting? Are you, then, an anti- Diderotian? Does your experience make against the theory that perfect acting is acting with the head only, that the dramatic artist must not feet the emotions he portrays "
Absolutely. Factually feel everything my character is supposed to feel. I shed tears on the stage every night when my personage weeps. At Marseiller a month or two ago, in the third nct of 'La Tosch,' at the moment she is supposed to faint, I fainted in real earnest."
And you don't believe in the 'double per sonality theory either ? You don't bisect your. self into an actress who identifies herself with her part and a critic who detaches herself from and watches the actress? That, at least, is what M. Coquelin told me was his own case.”
"No, I do not. I certainly watch myself in a very literal senke, to see that I don't walk into the foollights, for instance, or to guard against my besetting tendency to gabble in exciting scenes, but never in the sight'er sense of your 'double personality theory !"
But here poor Diderot and his paradox have to make room for the great actress's comrades, who troop in to bid her good-night. They all, the gentlemen included, favor her in the Gallic fashion with a resounding salute on each cheek. Themanager-happy M. Mayer, boundless arethe privileges of managers-repeats this o'cu'ntory process. The Star man would like to flow suit, but letting I dare not wait upon 1 would, like the cat i' the fable"-he resigns himself. with a sigh, to merely bowing himself nut, and, after getting hopelessly astray in the labyrinth behind the scenes and being rescued by M. Damala, he seeks a brief consolation in a glass of aconite."

A la bonne heure, Madame, you shall answer for yourself. And, first, a question as to this eternal, charge of plagiarism which has been brought against La Tosca,' as it has been brought against every other piece of Sardou's. It has been said this week that certain leading incidents in this piece are cariously like those of Mr. Maurice Barrymore's play of Nadjezda. Is it true that Mr. Barrymore submitted bis piece to you some time before the production of
La Tosca ?!!
Quite true, though the inference that has been suggested is wholly false. Mr. Barrymore handed me his MS. as I was leaving America, but I-never so much as glanced into it, and when I landed in Europe 'La Tosca' was written and complete fani one end to the other., Sardon.
