8 SAINT PAUL A CHAKMING VIOLA. It is Indeed a compliment to St. Paul that the Shakespearean revival of Night," and "As You Like It" which flourished In New York last winter should spread its stimulating influence to o.ur city. Here, where we have been surfeited with light American farce and type-plays for a protracted season, comes that charming actress, Miss Marie Wainwfight. We.

feel with a certain sense of flattery this consideration from a lady who "has figured so conspicuously and triumphantly in the revival of the Shakespeare in the East. When last we relished the dramatic puissance of Marie Wainwright, we saw and mired her as a strong characterization beside her husband's (Louis James) Othello. That was two years ago. Now she greets us alone in a spirit distinctly that of an American lady, who, confident of her poise 1 in her chosen art. presents on her own account the bard's poetic ideal of sweetness and tenderness, the all essential Viola, iv "Twelfth Night." "It is needless to comment on the original book, the "Twelfth Nig so replete with the beautiful passages of the poet's master mind.

The interpretation of Viola, by Miss YVainright, loses to that lovely character none of its old-time charm, when Adelaide Neilson steeped her soul in it and played heiself into the hearts of the hosts. But to lead too closely a comparison of Miss Wainwriirht's Viola with that of her predecessor, would be to judge of both. The peculiar and exceptional temperment of the deceased queen of Shakespeare's heroine, made the application of her art to the subject one which thrust its appeal into the bosoms of all. It was regret that pervaded the audience, when Viola went behind the scenes in those Miss Wainwright has achieved in her new and lately-ventured role has been already promulgated to a degree commensurate with the b.ief career of "Twelfth Night" in its latest revival. In the very heart of its successful season the pleasure was ours to see the comedy last night at the Harris theater.

Proof positive of the public taste for the histrionic and legitimate were the tit and many who composed the large audience. Viola was the theme of every mind, and when the curtain rose the interest which had preceded the coming of Miss Wainwright and her company burst into applauding The first blush of enthusiasm over, the character of the house disclosed itself in a silent and attentive contemplation of the words and plot. Who could be so unreasonable as to want a truer human sentiment so artfully accompanied as were the opening lines of the duke: "If music be the food vt love, play on; Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting. The appetite may sicken and so The overture from "Twelfth Night" filly ushered the audience into the plot. The second scene and then Viola, and it was apparent that Miss Wainwright's assumption took firm grasp upon the house.

Endowed with a physical beauty which at once effects a sympathy and admiration, possessed of a gracious bearing and manner dignified, Miss Wainwright seemed a peerless personality for such a character as Viola. Her demeanor is easy and demure, startling us now with a sudden meekness, then coyly reserving her power for an ardent eftortin sweet speech. Her voice is soft and her emotion so humanely apparent, without rant or coarseness, as to enthrall her audience, which seems fo lowing her every act and utterance. Viola, though sweet and winning In haracter, is but a tempering factor ii. the truest interpretation of tne coinway.

The deal is more with common life, and the humorous potentialities are at once striking. Sir Toby Belch by William Owen is a character well fraught with the poet's conception, and the aggressive, though festive Sir Toby of Mr. Owen is an artistic triumph aud wins popular sppreciation. Coupled with the consideration of the visit of Miss Wainwright, we are doubly moved to interest and patronage by the presence of Barton Hill, the popular manager of the stock company of the old People's theater. Mr.

HHFs Malvolio is a magnificent embodiment of the character. In easy consonance with the eccentricities of Malvolio is Mr. Hill's earnestness and austeritynatural and active in the impersonation. Percy Brooke's performance of Sir Andrew Aguecheek was well suited to the hewn-out, piled-up comicalities of the character of Sir Toby Belch. Frederick Ross played Duke Orsuio in an admirable manner, and his performance was thoughtful and conscientious, but the criticism that he appeared to be laboring under indisposition may be ventured with no compunction.

Olivia, by Miss Blanche Walsh, suffered some by the contact with Miss Wainwright's unmatehable acting, to which the weaker part is subjected. Miss Louise Muldener's Maria and E. Y. Vestis' Clown were spirited performances, ami received with loud applause, artfully evoked. The scenic effects constitute an artistic aim to historic representation, and the scenes were executed by the artists Graham.

Seholffer and Meader. In fact, the stage investiture is the most superb theatrical concomitant which we have seen for a long time. Such conscientiously contrived stage features bear out the absolute historical truth of the times, events and scenes which this splendid company depict, and probably for the last time in this part of America, for it is determined with Miss Wainwright's manager for next season, Julian Magnus, that this actress shall present an entirely new production in New York, in 1891. Miss Wainwright has abandoned the contemplated presentation of "Twelfth Night" in London this summer, but at the conclusion of her tour next fall, she will shelve Shakespeare's comedy and study her new play. The social quality of the audience was typified with the swallowtail, and the rich and beautiful costuming of the women folk.

The week will doubtlessly bring out the city's representation of taste and culture. The only matinee will be held Saturday. H. W. Change or Time.

Judge Flandrau Presents a Full Length Portrait of Joe Rolette, To Be Added to the Interesting: Collection of the Historical Society. His Address Tells of a Man Conspicuous in Frontier History.

I. V. D. Heard Adds Some Interesting Facts and Spicy Anecdotes. There was an incident at the Minnesota State Historical society last night pretty in itself and of considerable historical intereat.

When the routine business was completed Judge Charles E. Flandrau rose and presented a handsomely framed and life-like portrait of Hon. Joseph Rolette. I propose this evening, said Judge Flandrau, to present to the historical society a portrait of Hon. Joseph Rolette.whom all old settlers will well remember.

The great-grandfather of our subject emigrated from Normandy in Frauce to Canada and formed a colony there; with them was his grandfather, then twelve years old; it is believed that the brave Montcalm was of the number of these colonists. Many of them became discouraged by the hardships they were compelled to endure and returned to Normandy. The Rolettes remained. Jean Joseph Rolette, the father of our Joseph, was born in Quebec, Sept. 24, 1781.

He received a collegiate education in Quebec from the Jesuit Fathers and was designed for the priesthood, but he engaged in business first in Montreal, then for a while in Windsor, opposite Detroit, and finally at Prairie dv Cliien about 1801 or 1803. He became an enterprising Indian trader and was well established in business when the Americans in 1814 took possession of the place. They built a stockade and called it Fort Shelby. Hoi? tie was then absent at Macinaw and joined Col. McKay's expedition to recapture Prairie dv Cliien.

He had some rank in Anderson's company and took a leading part in the campaign against Prairie dv Cblen, and for his good conduct was ottered a captaincy in the British army, which he declined. His activity in the British service was remembered against him by the Americans in after years, but he continued his Indian trade successfully up to 1820, when John Jacob Astor offered him a leading position in the American Fur company, which he accepted, and held until 1836, when he was succeeded by Hercules L. Dousman. He died at Prairie dv Clnen Dec. 1, 1842, in his sixty-second year.

He was known among the Indian traders as "King Rolette," and the Indians called him Slie-vo or the Prairie Chicken, on account of the rapidity with which he traveled. Mr. Rolette was a leading citizen of his town. He left considerable property, and a widow and two children, a son and daughter. The latter married Capt.

Hooe, of thef United States army, and was a very superior woman. His widow married Gen. Hercules L. Dousman, and died on Jan. 13, 1883, aged seventysix years.

A son of this union, and half brother of our subject, married a daughter of Gen. Sauinel Sturgjs.of the United States army, In this city. Mr. Rolette was a thorough type of the old French frontiersmen, and, from what has been handed down to us coneerninjr his habits and general characteristics, it is probably as well for the church that he did not take priestly orders. ma son Joseph, whose portrait I now present to you, was born Oct.

28, 1820, at Prairie dv Chien, and was sent to New York when quite young, and received a commercial education with the trading firm presided over by Ramsey Crooks, father of -Col. William Crooks, of our city. Joe lacked the elements of thrift and steady habits that are essential to a successful commercial career. When he returned from New York he was sent to Pembina. and entered into the Indian traae at that point.

He married Nov. 4. 1845, Angelic Jerome, who was part Chippewa, who still lives on a farm four miles from Pembina. and reared ouite a numerous eleven iv all, seven of whom are still living, six sons and a daughter, the latter married to August McKay, Indian aeent at Lake Winnipeg. In the early days of the territory he made the semi-annual trips to St.

Paul with the Red river carts, bringing furs and taking in return merchandise for the trade with the Indians. He was on several occasions elected to the legislature of the territory, and in the eighth session of the legislature he was a member. A bill had passed the house removing the seat of government from St. Paul to St. Peter, and it would, in all probability, have passed the council and been approved by the governor, but Joe resolved to veto the same in his own peculiar manner.

He quietly Pocketed the Bill and disappeared. The friends of the bill being desirous of getting it before the council for passage prepared a resolution, which was introduced by St. A. D. Balcombe, on Saturday, Feb.

28, 1857, as follows: Resolved. That Hon. Joseph Rolette be very respectfully requested to report to the council Bill No. 02, council file, entitled, "A bill for the removal of the seat of government for the territory of Miuuesoa," and that, should said Rolette fail so to do before the adjournment of the council this day. that Hon.

Mr. Wales, who stands next in the list of said committee on enrolled Dills, be respectfully requested to procure another truly enrolled copy of said bill and report the same to the council on mondar next. Aud be it further resolved, that the secretary of the council is very respectfully requested to give said bill, after it has been Figned by the speaker of the house and the president of tbe council, to Hon. Mr. VValea, to deliver to the governor lor bis approval.

On the introduction of these resolutions Mr. Setzer moved a.call of the council, and Mr. Rolette was found to be absent. As usual the sergeant-atarms was directed to report Mr. Rolette in his seat, which he did not do because he could not find him.

Then Mr. Balcombe moved that farther proceedings under tlie call of the council be dispensed with, and here ciime the crisis. Under the rules of the council no business could be transacted pending a call, and it required a twothird vote to dispense with the call. The council consisted of fifteen members, nine of whom were in favor of the removal of the capitol and five were opposed, including Rolette and John B. Brisbin, who was president of the council.

Mr. Balcombe made a two-hour speech to prove that nine was twothirds of fourteen, but the chair insisted that the arithmetic of Yale did not justify any such result, and decided the motion lost. A deadlock ensued, and the council remained in session until the sth day of March following, night and day, when the term expired by its own limitation and The Bill Was Lost. During thia time the sergeant-atarms was making frantic endeavors not to find Mr. Roletto.

and the object of his search was quietly ensconced in the top story of the Fuller house, where, as tradition relates, he received royal enteitainment from the well-wishers of St. Paul. At the expiration of the legislative session he appeared on the streets of St. Paul, lauded to the skies by the advocates of the latter place, and threatened with ail kinds of disaster by the defeated friends of St. Peter.

The writer, although at that time a resident THE SAINT PAUL DAILY GLOBE: TUESDAY MORNING. APRIL. 15, 1890. of St. Peter, was a warm and close friend of Rolette, and many is the night when he has walked the streets of this city loaded with knives and revolvers in company with Rolette, ready to defend him from expected attack.

This circumstance in the career of Rolette, although not commendable as a parliamentary jnethod of defeating a legislative enactment, renders him historical, and should endear him to the people of St. Paul. His subsequent career was comparatively obscure. He lived and died at his distant home in Pembina, but always held a warm place iv the hearts of the settlers of his day. The writer was especially attached to him.

I think the portrait is worthy of a place in the achives of the society, and if you agree with me, it will remain to commemorate a prominent personage in the early and rougher age of our history. I. V. D. Heard offered the following resolution: Resolved, This 14th day of April, 1890, by the executive council of the Minnesota Historical society, that they gratefully accept the portrait presented by Judge Charles E.

Flandrau of the late Joseph Rolette that this portrait of one of Minnesota's most noted men in early days be hung in a prominent place in the rooms of the society, and that a properly engrossed copy of this resolu tion be sent to the donor. Mr. Hoard's Address. Mr. Heard said: The intrinsic value of this gift is enhanced by its coming from one who was for many years Mr.

Rolette's most intimate friend. How often in the fifties were they to be seen together in the streets of St. Paul, attracting attention by their half-savage attire. In the winter they wore singular caps of fur, with fox tails streaming in the wind. Nothing seemed to disturb their amity, although one wore the moccasins of the Algonquins and the other those of their deadly enemies, the Sioux.

Rolette, in compliment to the judge's lithe, active Indian figure and aboriginal tastes, always called him Hiawatha, after the mythical wise man of the Ojibwas. But for the judge's forethought we should probably have never had the cheerful face of this Yorick of the border to cast its sunlight over the relics of the atone age, the scalp of Kaposia's chief and the grave faces of the warriors and statesmen of civilization. The jocund has its rights. The name 3of Mr. Rolette's father and mother's father have been written in the annals of the West for over eighty years.

When Montgomery Pike, the first United States officer 911 the Upper Mississippi, landed at Prairie dv Chien on the 4tli day of September. 1805, to pick out a site for a fort, the father of the mother of the subject of this portrait provided him with quarters and with light barges for the upner river. When Pike stopped, in 1816. at Red Wing, on his return from his tiresome and perilous voyage to the head waters of the river, he was met by a present from Monsieur Joseph Rolette, of Prairie dv Chien, of brandy, coffee, and sugar, and when he reached the Prairie he was right royally feasted by M. Rolette and his friends.

This M. Ro'ette, of the Prairie, was very enterprising. Among other occupations, he cultivated a large farm. He was part proprietor of The First Saw Mill on theChippewa river, paying the Sioux chief, Wabashaw, $1,000 Der year for the privilege and the timber. He built a distillery.

He was a transporter of merchandise between the Portage and the Prairie. He was a leader in politics. He was chief justice of Crawford county. He was noted for making good bargains, thereby acquiung, as one of his names among the Indians, that of Sapan-Zapta, meani-ig live more, because, as they said, let them offer what numuer of skins they would in exchange for an article, his terms invariably were "five more." His superiority as a business man is further illustrated by the following story from the Annals ot Wisconsin: The scene was on Lake Winuebaeo, where N. Rolette was engaged with a trading boat, when he met another boat, on which were his employes, directly from Prairie dv Chien.

Of course," after an absence of some weeks from home, the meeting on these lonely waters, and the exchanging of news was an occasion of great excitement. The boats were stopped, earnest greetings exchanged, question followed question. 'Eh! bien." inquired M. Rolette, "have the finished new house?" "Oui. monsieur." "Et la cheminee fame-t-elle?" (Docs the chimney smoke?) "Non, monsieur." "And the harvest, how is that?" "Very fine, indeed.

"Is the mill at work?" "Yes. plenty of water." "How is Whip? (His favorite horse.) "Oh, Whip is first-rate." Everything, in short, about the store, the farm, the business of various descriptions being satisfactorily gone over, there was no occasion for further delay. It was time to proceed. "Eh! adieu! bon voyage!" mes gens!" (Go ahead, men.) Then suddenly: arretez." (Stop! stop "Comment se portent Mme. Rolette et les enfants?" (How are Mrs.

iiolette and the children?) The officers of the law decided about as M. Rolette, of the Prairie, wished, without forms or nhrases. A soldier named Fry was brought before a justice, accused of stealing and killing a calf of M. Rolette. The justice had just before been engaged with his friends in drinking brandy, which he called takiuar a little "quelq ne chose." He addressed the prisoner as follows: "Pry.

you great rascal I What for you kill M. Rolette's calf?" did not kill M. calf." Justice (shaking his You lie, you great rascal. Constable, take him to jail. Come, gentlemen, come, let us take a little quelque-chose.

In elections M. Rolette made it very simple for his friends and adherents, tor, when asked for what candidates they were going to vote their answer invariably was "Je va vote pour Mous. liolette As the American element increased, M. Rolette's modes did not seen) entirely to suit, and it is said that the commanding officer at Fort Crawford Banished Him to an Island, where he was "forced to spend the winter. M.

Rolette introduced the first sheep on the Upper Mississippi; but these, although bought for ewes, turned out to be wethers. He is said to have introduced the first swine in the Northwest; their number rapidly increased. The Sioux name of Joseph Rolette. the subject of the portrait, and son of this Joseph Rolette of the Prairie, was Sheyo-cihint-ku, Prairie-Chickens-Son. At the Prairie young Joseph, of course, learned tne French, English, Sioux, and, probably, the Menominee and Sac and Fox languages.

When he went to New York city to obtain the classical and commercial education which he there acquired at the school of Mr! Hyacinth Penquet, he was the type of a wild Western boy. Upon his first appearance on Broadway he was dressed in buckskin and carried a long rifle. When he left the city, besides his other accomplishments, he had learned to talk and walk it, too. "He had heard the chimes at midnitrht." In 1543 young Mr. Rolette, in connection with his uncle.

Mr. Fisher, started his line of Red river carts between Pembina and St. Paul. This line and that of the late Norman W. Kittson, by whom M.

Rolette was soon engaged, diverted the fur traffic which had theretofore largely gone to the Hudson Bay company, St. Paul, which city thereby became one of the largest fur markets in America. In 1844 six only of these carts came to St. Paul. In 1858 their number was 600.

From 1844 to 1864 the amount of furs here handled rose from 11.400 to $250,000, four-fifths of which came from Pembina. This commerce made St. Paul a city. Mr. Rolette was a member of the Minnesota legislature trom Pembina from 1853 to 1857, both inclusive.

Sometimes he traveled the entire route from Pembina to St. Paul, 480 miles, on snowshoes, enduring many hardships, but at other times he came down in a cariole Drawn by Five Dogs, driven tandem fashion, and harnessed tastily, with jingling bells, he himself buried iv furs and looking like a jolJy Santa Claus fresh from Lapland. It is said that Mr. Rolette, while he was in the legislature, being offered on one occasion 100 lots in a paper town for his vote, answered: "If you call it $10 instead of the lots I will consider it." Mr. Rolette was a member of the constitutional convention, and appointed on the committee upon the distribution of the powers of the state government, and also on that upon the subject of school funds, education and science.

Mr. Rolette knew his business, but on these abstruse subjects, as on all others of a like character, he maintained a wise silence, as will be seen by his record in the journal of the convention, as follows: Aug. 21, Mr. Rolette moved that the convention adjourn until Monday next. The motion was not agreed to.

Aug. Mr. Rolette that the convention adjourn. The motion was not agreed to. Aug.

In the apportionment in the schedule, on motion of Mr. Rolette, the words "and Tod were stricken out and inserted before Pembina. Mr. Rolette moved that the convention adjourn. The motion was not agreed to.

As the convention was doubtless as anxios as Mr. Rolette to have "Tod" annexed to Pembina, they treated him shabbily in not accommodating him with the very few adjournments that he asked for. But Mr. Rolette made honors easy in the legislative council on the capital removal question, for he forced that body to remain in- session for 123 hours without adjournment or recess. The legislative council took their meals in their room and camped on the floor.

Mr. Rolette. was full of original sayings. He was once ill at the American house, and when asked what was the matter, answered the "kangaroo;" but no one ever found out what the kangaroo was. He was like his father, very hospitable.

If a stranger had come to his lodge, in the words of Red Cioud to Montgomery Pike, he would have "thrown him corn like a bird." Charles Cavilleer, of Pembina, writes of him: "I first saw Joe Rolette in 1845 in St. Paul. He came in charge of Mr. Kiltson's Brigade of Carts. "The next time I saw him was on the 17th of August of the same year, when I went to Pembiua.

He received us opposite to that place at the head of 500 Indiaus and mixed bloods with such a fusiiade from their euna that made the welkin iing, and afterwards 1 sucn a frendly war whoop that it would almost have raised the dead to life. Soon Jos had some lifteen or twenty canoes, with, half-breeds find Indians to paddle us over the raging Red river, and when we lauded on the other side there was such a shouting of Ho! Ho! Hos! such embracing and kissing as I had never seen before, and never expect to see again. Joe then took us to Mr. Kittsuifs headquarters and set us down to a sumptuously gotten-up supper, to which, as huugry voyageurs, we did more than justice. From that time began my long and pleasant acquaintance with Joe, and a kinder or more generous fellow never lived." Joseph Wilson, of St.

Cloud, writes: "I first met Joe at Prairie dv Chien in Joe was a good man to his friends, tenderhearted and libernl. He gave away a great deal of money to persons who were needy at Pembina and in that vicinity. He was successful in the leeislature. He never undertook any measure that he did not carry through. The country was new at that time, and allowance should be made for early settlers in a new country." Mr.

Rolette loved the prairies. In his day they shook with the tramp of innumerable buffaloes. He loved the gypsy camps of his swarthy mixedbloods of the Red river: "When on pemmican they feasted, Pemmican and buffalo marrow. Haunch of deer and hump of bison Yellow cakes of the Mondamtn, And the wild rice of the river;" he loved their violins, the torn -torn, the Indian flute and drum; the voyageur songs of the Canadas. He the long-stemmed pipes with bowls of red, and the fragrant smoke of the kinnekenic.

But much as he preferred the camp fire and the canoe, Mr. Rolette had inherited too much politeness from his Normandy progenitors to wound the feelings of the people of the towu. He always Took His Qnelqne-Chose with the citizens. He danced his Ojibwa dances at the Fuller and the Winslow. He frequently made it lively on the long porch of the old American house.

Mr. Rolette was of medium heisrht; rather stout, but graceful. He walked with a quick, natty step, caught from the trail.

He was fond of Indian finery. The portrait, enlarged from an old original, represents him in his habit as he the embroidered moccasins, the beaded pouch, tht) knife sheath worked with the quills of the porcupine, the sash of Pembina.
