# Eminent Chinese of the Ch'ing Period/Shao Ch'ang-hêng

Layout 2
​SHAO Ch'ang-hêng 邵長蘅 (T. 子湘, H. 青門山人), Aug. 24, 1637–1704, Dec. 18, man of letters, was a native of Wu-chin, Kiangsu. He became a hsiu-ts'ai at the early age of ten (sui). Some fifteen years later (in 1662) he was debarred from taking further examinations because he failed to pay taxes which had fallen in arrears (see under Yeh Fang-ai). Thereafter he devoted himself to forms of literature not required in the examinations. Before many years he achieved fame both as a poet and as an essayist. In 1673 he took part in the compilation of the history of his native place. He was in Peking at the time of the po-hsüeh hung-tz'ŭ examination of 1679 (see under P'êng Sun-yü), and although he was not one of the competitors, the occasion afforded him an opportunity to make the acquaintance of many scholars. In 1684, with the help of his official friends, he was allowed to compete in the provincial examination in Peking. Failing, however, to pass, he gave up hope for an official career. Thereafter he traveled extensively.
He gained the friendship of Sung Lao [q. v.] when the latter was in Huang-chou in 1664–69; and when Sung Lao became governor of Kiangsu in 1692 Shao was invited to be his private secretary. While serving in this capacity he compiled the 二家詩鈔 Êr-chia shih-ch'ao, in 20 chüan—an anthology of the poems of Wang Shih-chên [q. v.] and Sung Lao. In 1699 he edited for the latter the Shih chu Su shih (see under Sung Lao). His own collected works, 邵子湘全集 Shao Tzŭ-hsiang ch'üan-chi (also known as 青門集 Ch'ing-mên chi), consist of three parts: the Ch'ing-mên lu kao (簏稿), in 16 chüan, written before 1678; the Ch'ing-mên lü (旅) kao, in 6 chüan, written during the years 1679–1691; and the Ch'ing-men shêng (賸) kao, in 8 chüan, written after 1692. This work, in its complete form, was first printed in 1700 and was reprinted in the 常州先哲遺書 Ch'ang-chou hsien-chê i-shu of 1897. It received notice in the Imperial Catalog, but was not copied into the Ssŭ-k'u Manuscript Library.

A clear and resolute novel about homosexuality, Escal-Vigor was heading towards trouble. Although it was well received by most critics, a lawsuit was launched against it. However, a storm of protest, especially vociferous because of numerous literary celebrities, and a cunning lawyer with literary aspirations, Edmond Picard, did their part in acquitting Eekhoud. Originally published in 1899.

# Eskimo Folk-Tales (1921)/Kúnigseq

​KÚNIGSEQ
THERE was once a wizard whose name was Kúnigseq.
One day, when he was about to call on his helping spirits and make a flight down into the underworld, he gave orders that the floor should be swilled with salt water, to take off the evil smell which might otherwise frighten his helping spirits away.
Then he began to call upon his helping spirits, and without moving his body, began to pass downward through the floor.
And down he went. On his way he came to a reef, which was covered with weed, and therefore so slippery that none could pass that way. And as he could not pass, his helping spirit lay down beside him, and by placing his foot upon the spirit, he was able to pass.
And on he went, and came to a great slope covered with heather. Far down in the underworld, men say, the land is level, and the hills are small; there is sun down there, and the sky is also like that which we see from the earth.
Suddenly he heard one crying: "Here comes Kúnigseq."
By the side of a little river he saw some children looking for greyfish.
And before he had reached the houses of men, he met his mother, who had gone out to gather berries. When he came up to her, she tried again and again to kiss him, but his helping spirit thrust her aside.
"He is only here on a visit," said the spirit.
Then she offered him some berries, and these he was about to put in his mouth, when the spirit said:
"If you eat of them, you will never return."
A little after, he caught sight of his dead brother, and then his mother said:
"Why do you wish to return to earth again? Your kin are here. And look down on the sea-shore; see the great stores of dried meat. ​Many seal are caught here, and it is a good place to be; there is no snow, and a beautiful open sea."
The sea lay smooth, without the slightest wind. Two kayaks were rowing towards land. Now and again they threw their bird darts, and they could be heard to laugh.
"I will come again when I die," said Kúnigseq.
Some kayaks lay drying on a little island; they were those of men who had just lost their lives when out in their kayaks.
And it is told that the people of the underworld said to Kúnigseq:
"When you return to earth, send us some ice, for we thirst for cold water down here."
After that, Kúnigseq went back to earth, but it is said that his son fell sick soon afterwards, and died. And then Kúnigseq did not care to live any longer, having seen what it was like in the underworld. So he rowed out in his kayak, and caught a guillemot, and a little after, he caught a raven, and having eaten these one after the other, he died. And then they threw him out into the sea.
# Eskimo Folk-Tales (1921)/How the fog came

​HOW THE FOG CAME
THERE was a Mountain Spirit, which stole corpses from their graves and ate them when it came home. And a man, wishing to see who did this thing, let himself be buried alive.
The Spirit came, and saw the new grave, and dug up the body, and carried it off.
The man had stuck a flat stone in under his coat, in case the Spirit should try to stab him.
On the way, he caught hold of all the willow twigs whenever they passed any bushes, and made himself as heavy as he could, so that the Spirit was forced to put forth all its strength.
At last the Spirit reached its house, and flung down the body on the floor. And then, being weary, it lay down to sleep, while its wife went out to gather wood for the cooking.
"Father, father, he is opening his eyes," cried the children, when the dead man suddenly looked up.
"Nonsense, children, it is a dead body, which I have dropped many times among the twigs on the way," said the father.
But the man rose up, and killed the Mountain Spirit and its children, and fled away as fast as he could. The Mountain Spirit's wife saw him, and mistook him for her husband.
"Where are you going?" she cried.
The man did not answer, but fled on. And the woman, thinking something must be wrong, ran after him.
And as he was running over level ground, he cried:
"Rise up, hills!"
And at once many hills rose up.
Then the Mountain Spirit's wife lagged behind, having to climb up so many hills.
The man saw a little stream, and sprang across.
"Flow over your banks!" he cried to the stream. And now it was impossible for her to get across.
​"How did you get across?" cried the woman.
"I drank up the water. Do you likewise."
And the woman began gulping it down.
Then the man turned round towards her, and said:
"Look at the tail of your tunic; it is hanging down between your legs."
And when she bent down to look, her belly burst.
And as she burst, a steam rose up out of her, and turned to fog, which still floats about to this day among the hills.
# Eskimo Folk-Tales (1921)/Kumagdlak and the living arrows

​KUMAGDLAK AND THE LIVING ARROWS
KUMAGDLAK, men say, lived apart from his fellows. He had a wife, and she was the only living being in the place beside himself.
One day his wife was out looking for stones to build a fireplace, and looking out over the sea, she saw many enemies approaching.
"An umiak and kayaks," she cried to her husband. And he was ill at ease on hearing this, for he lay in the house with a bad leg.
"My arrows—bring my arrows!" he cried. And his wife saw that all his arrows lay there trembling. And that was because their points were made of the shinbones of men. And they trembled because their master was ill at ease.
Kumagdlak had made himself arrows, and feathered them with birds' feathers. He was a great wizard, and by breathing with his own breath upon those arrows he could give them life, and cause them to fly towards his enemies and kill them. And when he himself stood unprotected before the weapons of his enemies, he would grasp the thong of the pouch in which his mother had carried him as a child, and strike out with it, and then all arrows aimed at him would fly wide of their mark.
Now all the enemies hauled up on shore, and the eldest among them cried out:
"Kumagdlak! It is time for you to go out and taste the water in the land of the dead under the earth—or perhaps you will go up into the sky?"
"That fate is more likely to be yours," answered Kumagdlak.
And standing at the entrance to his tent, he aimed at them with his bow. If but the first arrow could be sent whirling over the boats, then he knew that none of them would be able to harm him.
He shot his arrow, and it flew over the boats. Then he aimed at the old man who had spoken, and that arrow cut through the string of the old man's bow, and pierced the old man himself. Then he began ​shooting down the others, his wife handing him the arrows as he shot. The men from the boats shot at him, but all their arrows flew wide. And his enemies grew fewer and fewer, and at last they fled.
And now Kumagdlak took all the bodies down by the shore and plundered them, taking their knives, and when the boats had got well out to sea, he called up a great storm, so that all the others perished.
But the waves washed the bodies this way and that along the coast, until the clothes were worn off them.
Here ends this story.

# Easy Mark Twain

Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch, April 27, 1907
The man whom a few people know as Samuel L. Clemens is an easy mark. That was demonstrated Thursday when he came here aboard the steam yacht Kanawha, as the guest of Henry H. Rogers, the Standard Oil Collossus, and talked when a newspaper reporter was within short ear shot.
He seems to have none of that quality which one who wished to exhibit a deplorable lack in a fancy dress might well perhaps, call business acumen. Why everyone of those little words which slipped out of his mouth might have been sold for something.
True, they were not exactly new words, but he could have dressed them up so no one would have known that they ever had been used and they could have been worked off at a good profit to the producer.
Instead of the producer profiting, however, the public profited. That goes to show that a man may have the art to dress up old words in a new style and amuse the public immoderately and still be without business acumen.
Men do not make money talking for nothing. Mark Twain, as he lies slumbering aboard the Kanawha, the breeze from the Dismal Swamp which Tom Moore peopled with the ghost of a maid which never ceases from paddling, fanning the sleeper, is surrounded by several luminous examples all pursuading to the contrary.
Not all he said yesterday has yet blossomed into print either, but may be expected to be hoarded and retailed by the newspaper men slowly, so as to not break the market. He said something to the effect that some people here expressed concern lest the Jamestown Exposition should not be complete.
Such a possibility as that, he could not comprehend in view of the fact that he really was the show and he was all here and it was all right. He allowed that his daughter once said that her Papa never went any where except it was some place where he could show himself off and he thought that he was doing that here pretty well.
The reporters say that he said these things. Of course, the reporters sometimes misquote a man. Who has not known men whom they have quoted in print as saying something which sounded entirely different when read than when uttered. Fortunately for reporters the things which they write which please the public and make that public applaud the man who uttered them are rarely misquotations.
Mark Twain, though, has rarely been misquoted. Perhaps the principal reason why this is true is that nobody else could think of anything which might be said which was so good as that which Mark Twain really said.
He can say good things, there isn't any doubt of that, but that he has business acumen three is no earthly use of pretending. Perhaps it is because of this very lack that the world loves him so dearly. The crippled child generally is loved by the mother better than the perfect one is.

# Ex parte in the Matter of the United States/Opinion of the Court

* Court Documents
* Case Syllabus
* Opinion of the Court
United States Supreme Court
83 U.S. 699
Ex parte in the Matter of the United States
"In this case it was ordered that the defendants' motion for a new trial be dismissed for want of juris iction, because, since the same was made, the mandate of the Supreme Court has been filed affirming the judgment of the court in this case, and because two of the four judges before whom the motion was argued, and to whom it was submitted on the 21st of November, 1871, have heretofore rendered and filed their decision that the motion be denied upon the merits.'
'Since the making of this order no action has been taken by this court in reference to said motion for a new trial.
'The reasons assigned in said order against the jurisdiction of this court to hear and determine said motion, are the only cause which the majority of the court have to show why the alternative mandamus should not issue from the Supreme Court in this case.
'In regard to the motion for stay of payment of judgment in the case of said Russell, which was filed by the Assistant Attorney-General, on behalf of the defendants, on the 11th of November, 1871, no action has at any time been taken by this court in relation thereto, and it is now on the files of this court undecided. It was a motion to stay payment of the judgment pending the said motion for a new trial, and the Assistant Attorney-General has not heretofore called it up for hearing.'
Justices Peck and Nott, for themselves, gave these additional reasons against the rule:
'That the defendants, by voluntarily arguing their appeal in the Supreme Court, after having made their several motions in the Court of Claims, which they did not proceed to argue in apt time, and by allowing the Supreme Court to proceed to judgment thereon while their motions in the Court of Claims were still pending, were guilty of experimenting upon the decisions of both courts, in a manner prejudicial to the ends of public justice; and that the course pursued by them in the Supreme Court while their motions in the Court of Claims were still pending, must be deemed a withdrawal of those motions from the latter court. And that it was against the course of justice for the defendants to subject the claimant to the expense and risk of a needless trial in the Supreme Court.'
After argument by Mr. G. H. Williams, Attorney-General, for the motion, and Mr. William Penn Clarke, contra, the court, on the 6th of May, 1872, ordered a PEREMPTORY MANDAMUS to issue, commanding the Court of Claims to hear and decide the motions for a new trial.
On the 31st of August following, the claimant, Russell, filed in the Court of Claims a remittitur of $4000 of his judgment, being one of the sums on account of the allowance of which in the judgment of that court, the defendants moved for a new trial; and the remainder of his claim was paid at the Treasury.
