BÖHM, Theobald, Bavarian musician: b. Munich, 9 April 1798; d. there 25 Nov. 1881. He was first flutist of the Munich Royal Orchestra for several years but is best known for his improvements in the construction and fingering of the flute. He wrote ‘Ueber den Flötenbau und die neuesten Verbesserungen desselben’ (1847) and ‘Die Flöte und das Flötenspiel.’ Consult Welch, ‘History of the Boehm Flute’ (London 1883).

BÜRGER, Gottfried August, German poet: b. 1 Jan. 1748, at Wolmerswende, near Halberstadt; d. Göttingen, 8 June 1794. He showed an early predilection for solitary and gloomy places and the making of verses, for which he had no other model than hymnbooks. He learned Latin with difficulty. In 1764 he studied theology at the University of Halle, and in 1768 he went to Göttingen, in order to exchange theology for law, but soon formed connections here equally disadvantageous to his studies and his morals, so that his grandfather, who had hitherto maintained him, withdrew his support. The friendship of several distinguished young men at the university was now of great service to him. He studied the ancient classics and the best works in French, Italian, Spanish and English, particularly Shakespeare, and the old English and Scottish ballads. Percy's ‘Reliques’ was his constant companion. His poems soon attracted attention. In 1772 he obtained the office of baillie in Alten-Gleichen, but throughout his life he was involved in pecuniary difficulties. In 1774 he married the daughter of a neighboring baillie, named Leonhart, but his marriage was unfortunate. He conceived a violent passion for the sister of his wife and married her in 1784, soon after his first wife's death. She also his celebrated “Molly,” died the first year of their marriage. At the same time be was obliged by intrigues, to resign his place. He was made professor extraordinary in Göttingen, but received no salary, and this favorite poet of the nation was obliged to gain his living by poorly rewarded translations for booksellers. A third marriage in 1790, with a young lady of Swabia, who had
publicly offered him her hand in a poem, completed his misfortunes; he procured a divorce from her two years afterward. The government of Hanover afforded him some assistance shortly before his death. His songs, odes, elegies, ballads, narrative poems and epigrams hold a very high place in German literature, Schlegel especially commending his work, though Schiller criticised him very severely. The first collection of his poems appeared in Göttingen in 1778. His complete works were first published by Reinhard at Göttingen in four volumes in 1796-98, and this edition has been repeatedly published since. Other editions of his work and letters have also been published, and his life has been written by Döring; Pröhle, ‘G. A. Bürger: Sein Leben und Seine Dichtungen’ (Leipzig 1865), and others.

Edition of 1920. See also George Washington Cable on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
CABLE, George Washington, American novelist and miscellaneous writer: b. New Orleans, La., 12 Oct. 1844. His father died when he was 14 years of age, and he had to leave school and seek employment as a clerk in order to assist in the support of his mother and sisters. In 1863 he joined the Confederate army as soldier in a cavalry regiment, and served till the conclusion of the Civil War, when he returned to New Orleans and again took to commercial life. But in 1879, being by this time a practised writer, and having had considerable success with his literary ventures, he decided to devote himself entirely to authorship. In 1884 he took up his residence in Massachusetts, where he has originated a system of “home culture clubs,” since developed into the People's Institute. Mr. Cable is a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. His first important book, ‘Old Creole Days’ (1879), appeared originally in Scribner's Magazine; and since its publication he has written ‘The Grandissimes’ (1880); ‘Madame Delphine’ (1881); ‘The Creoles of Louisiana’ (1884), a history; ‘Dr. Sevier’ (1884); ‘The Silent South’ (1885), a plea for the negro; ‘Bonaventure’ (1888); ‘The Negro Question’ (1888); ‘Strange True Stories of Louisiana’ (1889); ‘John March’ (1894); ‘Strong Hearts’; ‘The Cavalier’ (1901); ‘Bylow Hill’ (1902); ‘Kincaid's Battery’ (1908); ‘Posson Jone’ and ‘Père Raphael’ (1909); ‘Gideon's Band’ (1914); ‘The Amateur Garden’ (1914). The chief interest of Mr. Cable's novels lies in their excellent descriptions of Creole life, a subject which he may be said to have introduced into literature. His pictures of negro life are equally effective, and he handles dialect in a masterly manner. See Grandissimes, The; Old Creole Days.
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Böhlau, Helene

Edition of 1920. See also Helene Böhlau on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
BÖHLAU, bė'low, Helene, German novelist: b. Weimar, 22 Nov. 1859. She traveled much in the East, married Omar al-Raschid Bey at Constantinople and settled down in Munich. In 1888 her pictures of Weimar (Ratsmädelgeschichten) brought her a large measure of fame. She shows now and then a leaning toward the Romantic school, but on the whole her high power of description is realistic and her writings are imbued with passion. Among her works are ‘Novellen’ (1882); ‘Es hat nicht Sein Sollen’ (1891); ‘Das Recht der Mutter’ (1896; new ed., 1903); ‘Neue Ratsmädel- und Weimarische Geschichten’ (1897); ‘Halbtier’ (1899); ‘Sommerbuch’ (1902); ‘Die Kristallkugel’ (1903); ‘Isebies’ (1911).
# The Encyclopedia Americana (1920)/Böhm Bawerk, Eugen von

Edition of 1920. See also Eugen von Böhm-Bawerk on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
BÖHM (bėm) BAWERK, Eugen von, Austrian economist and statesman: b. Brünn, 12 Feb. 1851. He studied law in Vienna and political economy and social science at the universities of Heidelberg, Leipzig and Jena. In 1880 he became privatdocent in the University of Vienna, later assistant professor at Innsbrück and professor there in 1884. He was next chief of department in the Ministry of Finance and in 1895 became Minister. In 1897 he was Ambassador at the German court and in 1904 became, for the second time, Minister of Finance. In 1899 he was elevated to the Upper Chamber; in 1907 became vice-president and in 1911 president of the Academy of Science. He is honorary professor of political economy in the University of Vienna. Böhm-Bawerk's greatest influence has been wielded in the field of economics to which he has contributed many works of the greatest merit, which have raised discussion to a high level and have been a constant and powerful stimulus to investigation in this important field. His ‘Geschichte und Kritik der Kapitalzins-Theorien,’ was a notable contribution to the critical literature of economic science. It was made available for English students in 1890 by Prof. William Smart of Glasgow. In the United States it has had a great vogue. Abundant proofs of Böhm-Bawerk's influence are furnished by our literature. A glance at the files of the Political Science Quarterly, the Quarterly Journal of Economics and the Annals indicates that a large proportion of the articles treating of economic theory are either directly upon some phase of Böhm-Bawerk's work or theories, or have been clearly influenced, if not directly inspired, by them. He is a proponent of the separate existence of the abstinence and the use theories of capital and interest and opposes the theory of productivity. His works include, in addition to the work mentioned above, ‘Karl Marx and the Close of His System’ (a criticism, London 1898); ‘The Positive Theory of Capital and its Critics’ (in Quarterly Journal of
Economics, April 1895); ‘Recent Literature on Interest, 1884-1899’ (Eng. trans. by W. A. Scott, New York 1903).

BÜSCHING, Anton Friedrich, German geographer: b. Stadthagen, Schaumburg-Lippe, 27 Sept. 1724; d. Berlin, 28 May 1793. He studied theology in Halle from 1744 and was for a time mimster of a Protestant church in Saint Petersburg. When acting as a traveling tutor he became convinced of the defects of existing geographical treatises and resolved to write a new one which he began on his return to Germany in 1752 by publishing a short description of Schleswig and Holstein as a specimen. In 1754 he was made professor of philosophy in Göttingen. In 1766 he was made director of the united gymnasiums of Berlin and the suburb Kölln. Before his great ‘Erdbeschreibung,’ which he began to publish in 1754 in separate volumes, and which, though not entirely completed by the author, passed through eight editions during his life, neither the Germans nor any other nation had a thoroughly scientific geographical work. Another of his important writings is the ‘Magazin für Historiographie und Geographie’ (25 vols., 1767-83).

Edition of 1920. See also Johann Friedrich Böttger on Wikipedia, and the disclaimer.
BŒTTCHER, bėt'kėr, Jean Frederck (his name is also spelled BOETTIGER), German alchemist, the inventor of Meissen porcelain: b. Schleiz 1681; d. 1719. A man of dissolute habits and dishonorable conduct, he is celebrated for his extraordinary adventures and his fortunate discovery of the famous Dresden porcelain. Apprenticed to an apothecary in Berlin, he spent his time in the pursuit of alchemy and pretended to have made gold. This discovery, as it was believed to be, exposed him to the danger of a prosecution for sorcery, to avoid which he fled. Such was the credulity of the time that the Prussian government was anxious for his return, and the Elector of Saxony, then King of Poland, supplied him with the means of prosecuting his inquiries, and was entertained by his promises for three years. By the advice of Count Tschirnhausen, the Elector was induced to turn the real chemical knowledge and abilities of Bœttcher to account in developing the resources of the country. This sensible advice was rewarded with the discovery of a red clay at Meissen, from which a beautiful porcelain could be made. Bœttcher was entrusted with the direction of the manufacture, but was so little trustworthy that he had almost to be detained a prisoner to prevent his divulging the secrets of the process. He had actually entered into a negotiation with some Prussians to do so, and his death alone saved him from the punishment of his treachery.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Dying Brother, Master William Herrick

186. TO HIS DYING BROTHER, MASTER WILLIAM HERRICK.
Life of my life, 'take not so soon thy flight, But stay the time till we have bade good-night. Thou hast both wind and tide with thee; thy way As soon despatch'd is by the night as day. Let us not then so rudely henceforth go Till we have wept, kissed, sigh'd, shook hands, or so. There's pain in parting, and a kind of hell, When once true lovers take their last farewell. What! shall we two our endless leaves take here Without a sad look or a solemn tear? He knows not love that hath not this truth proved, Love is most loth to leave the thing beloved. Pay we our vows and go; yet when we part, Then, even then, I will bequeath my heart Into thy loving hands; for I'll keep none To warm my breast when thou, my pulse, art gone. No, here I'll last, and walk (a harmless shade) About this urn wherein thy dust is laid, To guard it so as nothing here shall be Heavy to hurt those sacred seeds of thee.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Friend, on the Untunable Times

210. TO HIS FRIEND, ON THE UNTUNABLE TIMES.
Play I could once; but, gentle friend, you see My harp hung up here on the willow tree. Sing I could once; and bravely, too, inspire With luscious numbers my melodious lyre. Draw I could once, although not stocks or stones, Amphion-like, men made of flesh and bones, Whither I would; but ah! I know not how, I feel in me this transmutation now. Grief, my dear friend, has first my harp unstrung, Wither'd my hand, and palsy-struck my tongue.

331. TO HIS HONOURED KINSMAN, SIR WILLIAM SOAME. EPIG.
I can but name thee, and methinks I call All that have been, or are canonical For love and bounty to come near, and see Their many virtues volum'd up in thee; In thee, brave man! whose incorrupted fame Casts forth a light like to a virgin flame; And as it shines it throws a scent about, As when a rainbow in perfumes goes out. So vanish hence, but leave a name as sweet As benjamin and storax when they meet.
Benjamin, gum benzoin. Storax or Styrax, another resinous gum.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Mistress

94. TO HIS MISTRESS.
Choose me your valentine, Next let us marry— Love to the death will pine If we long tarry.
Promise, and keep your vows, Or vow ye never— Love's doctrine disallows Troth-breakers ever. You have broke promise twice, Dear, to undo me, If you prove faithless thrice None then will woo ye.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Mistress Objecting to Him Neither Toying or Talking

38. TO HIS MISTRESS OBJECTING TO HIM NEITHER TOYING OR TALKING.
You say I love not, 'cause I do not play Still with your curls, and kiss the time away.
You blame me too, because I can't devise Some sport to please those babies in your eyes: By love's religion, I must here confess it, The most I love when I the least express it. Small griefs find tongues: full casks are ever found To give (if any, yet) but little sound. Deep waters noiseless are; and this we know, That chiding streams betray small depth below. So, when love speechless is, she doth express A depth in love and that depth bottomless. Now, since my love is tongueless, know me such Who speak but little 'cause I love so much.
Babies in your eyes, see Note.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Book (While thou didst keep thy candor undefil'd,)

3. TO HIS BOOK.
While thou didst keep thy candour undefil'd, Dearly I lov'd thee as my first-born child, But when I saw thee wantonly to roam From house to house, and never stay at home, I brake my bonds of love, and bade thee go, Regardless whether well thou sped'st or no. On with thy fortunes then, whate'er they be: If good, I'll smile; if bad, I'll sigh for thee.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Household Gods

278. TO HIS HOUSEHOLD GODS.
Rise, household gods, and let us go; But whither I myself not know. First, let us dwell on rudest seas; Next, with severest savages; Last, let us make our best abode Where human foot as yet ne'er trod: Search worlds of ice, and rather there Dwell than in loathed Devonshire.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Maid, Prew

387. TO HIS MAID, PREW.
These summer-birds did with thy master stay The times of warmth, but then they flew away, Leaving their poet, being now grown old, Expos'd to all the coming winter's cold. But thou, kind Prew, did'st with my fates abide As well the winter's as the summer's tide; For which thy love, live with thy master here, Not one, but all the seasons of the year.
# The Hesperides & Noble Numbers/Hesperides/To His Mistresses (Help me! help me! now I call)

19. TO HIS MISTRESSES.
Help me! help me! now I call To my pretty witchcrafts all; Old I am, and cannot do That I was accustomed to. Bring your magics, spells, and charms, To enflesh my thighs and arms. Is there no way to beget In my limbs their former heat? Æson had, as poets feign, Baths that made him young again: Find that medicine, if you can, For your dry decrepit man Who would fain his strength renew, Were it but to pleasure you.
Æson, rejuvenated by Medea; see Ovid, Met. vii.

## VII

The two boys had bathed their souls in the sea-breeze, and their eyes in light.
The tide of pleasure-loving humanity jostling against them had carried their feet to the “Lion Palace.” From there, seated at table and quenching their thirst with high-balls, they watched the feverish palpitations of the city's life-blood pulsating in the veins of Coney Island, to which they had drifted from Brighton Beach.
Ernest blew thoughtful rings of smoke into the air.
“Do you notice the ferocious look in the mien of the average frequenter of this island resort?” he said to Jack, whose eyes, following the impulse of his more robust youth, were examining specimens of feminine flotsam on the waves of the crowd.
“It is,” he continued, speaking to himself for want of an audience, “the American who is in for having a 'good time.' And he is going to get it. Like a huntsman, he follows the scent of happiness; but I warrant that always it eludes him. Perhaps his mad race is only the epitome of humanity's vain pursuit of pleasure, the eternal cry that is never answered.”
But Jack was not listening. There are times in the life of every man when a petticoat is more attractive to him than all the philosophy of the world.
Ernest was a little hurt, and it was not without some silent remonstrance that he acquiesced when jack invited to their table two creatures that once were women.
“Why?”
“But they are interesting.”
“I cannot find so.”
They both had seen better times—of course. Then money losses came, with work in shop or factory, and the voice of the tempter in the commercial wilderness.
One, a frail nervous little creature, who had instinctively chosen a seat at Ernest's side, kept prattling in his ear, ready to tell the story of her life to any one who was willing to treat her to a drink. Something in her demeanour interested him.
“And then I had a stroke of luck. The manager of a vaudeville was my friend and decided to give me a trial. He thought I had a voice. They called me Betsy, the Hyacinth Girl. At first it seemed as if people liked to hear me. But I suppose that was because I was new. After a month or two they discharged.”
“And why?”
“I suppose I was just used up, that's all.”
“Frightful!”
“I never had much of a voice—and the tobacco smoke—and the wine—I love wine.” She gulped down her glass.
“And do you like your present occupation?”
“Why not? Am I not young? Am I not pretty?”
This she said not parrotwise, but with a simple coquettishness that was all her own. On the way to the steamer a few moments later, Ernest asked, half-reproachfully: “Jack—and you really enjoyed this conversation?”
“Didn't you?”
“Do you mean this?”
“Why, yes; she was—very agreeable.” Ernest frowned.
“We're twenty, Ernest. And then, you see, it's like a course in sociology. Susie—”
“Susie, was that her name?”
“Yes.”
“So she had a name?”
“Of course.”
“She shouldn't. It should be a number.”
“They may not be pillars of society; still, they're human.”
“Yes,” said Ernest, “that is the most horrible part of it.”

RUTLEDGE, John, American jurist: brother of Edward Rutledge (q.v.): b. Charleston, S. C., 1739; d. there, 23 July 1800. He studied law in England, returned to Charleston in 1761 and there established himself in law practice. From the outset of his career he was an ardent opponent of the oppressive laws governing the colonies and as delegate to the congress at New York in 1765 openly advocated the united resistance of the colonies. In 1774 he was a member of the South Carolina convention which carried a resolution that South Carolina should be represented in the Continental Congress. He served as delegate to the Congress of 1775 and in 1776 was chairman of the committee that framed the South Carolina constitution, was elected president of the State government and commander-in-chief of the militia. When the British forces arrived off Cape Fear he fortified Charleston and prevented the invasion of the State. He resigned his office in 1778 through dissatisfaction with changes in the constitution, but was recalled in the following year and invested with dictatorial authority. He at once set about preparations for defense and held the city until 1780. He then joined the forces of General Greene and upon the recapture of Charleston resumed his duties as governor. In 1782 he was elected to the Continental Congress, was re-elected in 1783 and in 1784 became chancellor of South Carolina. He was a member of the convention which framed the Constitution of the United States in 1787. He became chief justice of his State in 1791 and in 1795 was appointed chief justice of the Supreme Court. His mind failed in the following year and he held no further public office.
