indianapolis is still enjoying lull in social

people are coming and going, and little atten-

parasory for the approaching festivities of
winter. The only formal receptions of the
week which have awakened much interest are
those given by Mrs. William Judson, in honor of

Victor Hugo, shortly before his
death, gave expression to his sense of
immortality in the following words !:
Il feel in myself the future life. I
am like forest which has more than
once been cut down. The new shoots
are stronger and ivelier than ever
/ am rising, I know, toward the sky.
The sunshine is on my head. The
earth gives me its generous sap, but
heaven lights me with the reflection
of unknown worlds. You say the
soul is nothing but the resultant of
bodily powers. Why, then, is my
soul the more luminous when my
bodily powers begin to fail? Winter
is on my head and eternal spring is
in my heart. Then ] breathe, at this
hour, the fragrance of the lilacs, the
violets and the roses as at twenty
years. The nearer I approach the
end, the palmer I hear around me
the immortal symphonies of the
worlds which invite me. 1t is mar
velous, yet simple. It is fairy tale,
and it is hirtory. For half century
/ have been writing my thoughts in
prose, history, philosophy, drama, ro-
nance, tradition, satire, ode, song-I
have tried all But I feel that have
not said the thousandth part of what
is in me. When go down to the
grave can say, like SO mony others,
i have finished my days work, but /
cannot say, i have finished my life. ;
My days work will begin again the
next morning. The tomb is not q
blind alley; it is a thoroughfare. 1t
closes in the twilight to open with
the dawn. I improve every hour be-
cause / love this world as my father
land. NV work is only beginning.
My monument is hardly above it's
foundation. | would be glad to see
it mounting and mounting forever.
The thirst for the infinite proves in
fnity.'
