newspapers; weekly issues and small dali

hind. Such publications are not remuner-

of brief existence. There are many really

many are poorly printed (as to the home

At his station on the shore, the gray Phenician
reads
The alphabet his wit devised for hurrying hui

Still further down the ages, John Gutenberg

With lever of the press, spike through an

And once again. James Watt to speeding truth

And writes across old bigotry broader human

Invader of the future At the outmost station
Light OF unborn wonders CLEAN, reflected on

So the ancient legend reads, that the glaciers

And swept the fleeing mortals to southern
homeless strand;
But shsuld come race, born of gods and

That should break the jaws of ice and laugh at
Arctic ire.
Golden spike, in golden wheatland, before the

Through the heart of elder evil, the heart of

The world stands still with bated breath
Then burst of flame! and woe aad veal
Lie drowned in darkness and in death.
Wild beasts in herds, strange. beauteous birds
Gods rainbow birds-gone in q breath!
o God, is earth then incomplete?
The six days labor still undone
That she must melt beneath Thy feet
And her fair face forget the sun?
Must isles go down and cities drown
And good and evil be as one?
The great warm heart of Mother Earth
Is broken DER her Jayan Isles.
Lo! ashes strew her ruined hearth
Along thousand watery miles.
hear her groan, hear her moan
All day above her drowning isles.
Tall ships are sailing silently
Above her buried isles to-day.
In marble halls beneath the sea
The sea-god's children shout and play;
They mock and shout in merry rout
Where mortals dwelt but yesterday.

MANY men of very marked medirocity
gain sort of ephemeral notoriety in lit
erary circles, by kindly, and yet unmeri-
ted newspaper notices and puffs, and start
forth their brief hour as assumptions,
pretentious members of the literati. This
is prominently true of Mr.. W. D. Howells
an alleged novelist" In Boston the as
sumed literary "Hub,' OF the universe,
they have, and maintain sort of literary
syndicate and all who are admitted into
the sacred precincts of the "ring," are
given a sort of fictitious Importance by
overmnch praise and putting. Bookmak-
ers as we'll as alleged ''authors" are mena-
bers of this exclusive ring, whose object is
to write and print books, and throw their
works on to the market, and by sensation
al notices create demand and sale for
them. Such productions, like Peter Pind-
ar's raZors, are made to sell and have their
birth, run, and death in a single season.
Mr.. Howelrs latest story published by Os-
good & Co., ga Woman's Reason" (the
title having been changed two or three
times at the instance Of the syndicate) is
now being written up and pulled for the
approaching holiday trade. But like his
preceding works it is weak, vapid, shall
low and an imperfect production. ga
Wonan's Reason" is reviewed in Boston
journal, and not by 81 unfriendly hand.
The reviewer is evidently more conscien-
tious and candid than most of his class,
and while he tries to Sustain Mr.. Howells
he "damns him with faint praise" and
squarely admits weaknesses ana defects
that ought to throw this shallow pretendar
out of the syndicate. The reviewer finds
agsneral samene running through all his
productions. "A Woman's Reason" seys
the reviewer contains nothing in piet, or
style, or general purpose which is not to
be found in one or more of his previous
novels" 10 is not S great novelist, not
George Eliot, not a Dickens, not Thacka-
~, nor even Blsokmore;" his strength is
not in plot, not in sensational surprises,
not in anything like the dash OF freedom
Of conscious power;' che is not creator
of character, not one who is equal to the
conception Of great characters in all his
stories, the men and women do not rise
much above the experience Of daily life;"
''his women are not interesting" The
kind critic "does not like to think that Mr..
Howells is not to rise higher" but, he yet
candidly expresses his opinion that he will
not. Oar object is to show the character
of Boston literary syndicate made books
and the inadequate ability of their Gu
thors. The publishers who force such
books into circulation by overatrained and
undeserved connection perpetrate fraud
upon the public. This novelist, Mr.. How
ellis, is like his father before him, who,
as the editor of an obscure country news
paper, was a pompous abortion. Preten-
ton on slender foundation runs through
the family

TIE remains of Shakespeare entombed
upon neutrality-suspicious. have continued
undisturbed for over two hundred and
sixty years, protected from dissertation, it
is supposed by an anathema written by
his own hand, against any who should
move his bones, which anathena was in
| scribed upon his tomb. Renewed atten-
ton has been recently called to this cir
cumstance by the statement that the pres
ent Vicar of Stratford-upon Avon, in dis
regard of the inscription upon his tomb,
and in the spirit of vandal has given
permission for the elimination Of the re-
mains of the great dramatist on the frivo-
lous pretext of comparing the skull with
the busts and portraits Of him. The busts
and portraits are imaginary, zone of them
having been taken from life, and are quite
as ideal as portraits Of the Savior and his
Apostles, and the portraits of Old Tesla
menJ worthless that adorn many elegant
editions of the Bible. But that the skull,
if found intact, would serve to produce an
accurate representation of the poet is an
absurd assumption, the work of sensation
alists, worthy only of contemptuous con-
demnation. Attention having been re-
newedly directed to the tomb of Skaks-
peare, by the vandalism of the preset Vi
car, and those whom he wishes to serve it
may be of interest to here reproduce, for
the convenience of the readers of the GLOBE,
few historic facts. Shakespeare died
April %, 1916, aged So years. In 1923
monument was erected to the poet, on
which was bust representing him in q
sitting posture under an arch, with a eur
tain before him. pen in his right hand,
and his left resting upon sheet of paper,
and on tablet below the bust was placed
an inscription On q fiat grave-stone in
front of the monument, and not far from
the wall sgainst which it was fixed, was
placed these lines, in the style of orthogra-
ply that prevailed in Shakspeare's day:
'sGood friend for Iseus sake forbeare,
To digg the dust enclosed heare;
Blest be We men vt spares these stones.
And curst be he vt moves my bones"
An original manuscript, dated 1882,
alleges, speaking Of course from tradition,
that these lines were written by Shaks-
peare himself At any rate the tradition
has been accepted as true, and hitherto
the grave of the poet has been revered as
consecrated ground, and has escaped mo-
lestation.

Rev. EDw. HATFIELD, D. D. a prominent
and distinguished minister Of the Presby-
terrain church died at bis home in New Jer-
sey on Saturday morning Aug. %, in the
10th year Of his age. He was native of
New Jersey, was born in 1907; graduated
from Middleton college in 1929; studied
theology at Andover two years and in
1882 was admitted by the United Presby-
terry of New York. He Immediately be-
came pastor OF the second Presbyterian

lstion with that church 81 years. he was

ion of the new and old school, became

terrain church, OF Ninth avenue, New York,

ent year. DIR. Hatfield was eminent for
his ability and attainments, and for his de-
devotion to the work of the
ministry, and for years held high and
leading position among the ministers Of
his denomination. He was beloved and
revered by his parishoners and it may be
said a good and great man has followed
Israel.

publican referring to the mania for start
ing newspapers, weeklies and small dailies
has some we'll put and pointed remarks.
It says: 'The people of a certain city were
bored with newspaper projects until the
projectors became such nuisance the
business men summarilY shut down on the
adventures, and the last sad relic of
silly mans ambition and twenty thousand
of his money, went out of sight there few
weeks ago. The people take the position
that two good papers are a credit to the
town, while three or four poorly patronized
publications would be positive damage
to Its reputation as live, progressive
city. The trouble is, there is too many
newspapers in the west for the population
and patronage, and business men, who ap-
preciate the Importance of keeping up the
standard of their local papers discourage
new schemes. The expenditure of an ex-
ira one hundred dollars annually to pro-
vide personal organ for disappointed
politician or newspaper to further the
ambition of some disgruntled aspirank
has ceased to be an enjoyable feature of
their business routine, and they are quit
ting it all over the country. A smile and
shake of the head was the dismal and
dampening response the paper-fever af1iic-
ted got from the city merchants on their
last round in that thrifty city to canvass
for encouragement and patronage on
which to start another daily there. News
paper funerals are just now more popular
than newspaper births among those who
furnish the means for their sustenance."
