A Novelist Whose Works Cast Shadow
On the Pacific.

think was led into moral;ginp
mood by Henry James, whose stories
gave me days reading. They cast
shadow across the sunlitssea, and the
worst OF 1t is that one cannot easily lay
aside book written by Henry James.
He is very '''Ancient '''A Mariner" and
holds you with his glittering eye until
| his tale is told, however uncomfortable
it makes you. All of these stories
'tDaisy Miller" ''An International Epi-
sode, " ''The Diary of Man of Fifty,n
ga Bundle of Letters s''-are subtly fed
! from a single root, which might be
| labeled-'tAll is vanity" Each might
have for its vignette fower-fringed
promenade, turning to a thorny path
and ending nowhere. Is it so in real
life? Then so much the worse for real
life So at least it appeared to me as l
read these pages on the Pacific. Long
fellow has told the great difference it
made in his friends poem, as he read
it by sunlight or moonlight. 1 read
Henry James works in London, where
there is little sunshine, and they ap-
peared impressively realistic and large
ly true, but they can't stand this tropi-
cal sunshine. Life is not SO fruitless
as these characters make out. ''Daisy
Miller" did not die of the Roman fever.
She is on this ship and, quite recovered
from her infatuation, as well as the
fever, is going out with Winterbourne
to visit his sugar estate near Honolulu.
Miss Alden, now Lady Lambeth, was
in San Francisco when l left; she con-
cluded that after all it wasn't the poor
fellows fault that he was a nobleman
and that there was no international law
to prevent her marrying him. Her rel
atives all came to the wedding break
fast and, strange to say, she told me
with her own pretty lips thai Henry
James was present. There is certain
truth about the story of the '.Man of
Fifty though it is only half told. The
same must be admitted about the
''Bundle of Letters" though don't like
to admit it, and will insist that 50 many
people of feeble instincts could rarely
be got together, even in a Paris board
ing house. Henry james is not cyni-
cal, yet the most pathetic thing about
his writing is his humor. [ have many
time felt proud of such country
man, the only living novelist. save
Howells, worthy to be mentioned with
Tourguenief. But he falls short of the
great Russian by not compensating his
reader for catastrophes to happiness by
the triumphs of heart and heroic faith.
