FINE DRAWING.
Where Henry James Found the Material in
the "Bost0nians."
Boston Letter.

Boston Letter.
Have you read Henry Jamests 'Bostonans" in
the February Century? Well, we have, and feel
very much like people who are blessed with an
enfant terrible whose next speech may be worse
than his first. 1t is rather hard on Miss Eliza
beth Peabody, to be photographed to the life as
Miss Birdseye," yet the picture is stunning
one as it stands now
Miss Peabody, or miss Brdseye," is a notable
figure in Boston thought" as l have heard it
called She is a woman of brains. the quintess-
ence of Concord, the principal educational
mover, woman's Fighter, woman suffragst a
former Abolitionist, a sister of the late Mrs.
Horace Mann and Mrs Nathaniel Hawthorne
and good creature whose very peculiarities en-
title her to respect, though the world calls her
an intellectual crank Miss Peabody is now in
her eighty third year, and nearly blind, but she
still manages to make her voice heard at the Con-
cord school of Philosophy and her pen to wag the
cause of suffrage with as much incisiveness and
determination as she did twenty years ago,
when she talked about kindergartens and radical
ism. Vanity and fine apparel are not her weak
ness, or she would not be. the conspicuous object
she has been since my memory, and there is no
doubt she Is as careless Of her personal appear
ance as Mr.. James's Miss Birdseye."
Mr. James has drawn Mrs Mary A. Livermore
to the life in Mrs. Farrinder," Of whom he says
there was something public in her eye, which
was large, cold, and quiet; it had acquired
a sort of exposed reticence Nom the habit
of looking down from a lecture desk over
owner was eulogized by leading
citizen" Mrs. Farrinder, at almost any time
had the air of being 'int1oduc by few re-
marks" Now tue author will not be loved any
the more for this and much else that he has
boldly satirzed.

Manning has emphasized his place by retaining
as the successor of First Assistant Secretary
French Charles S. Fairchild, ex-Attorney general
OF New York. 1t needs a pretty long acquaint
ance with Now York State politics to appreciate
all which that means-the bitter memories ID

York State among anti-Tilden Democrats the
significant warnings which the selection carries
to every New York Democrat that Tilden men
are on top and propose to put none but Til6en
men on guard.
The public, however, is expected to remem Der
that Mr. Fairchild was Tilden's Attorney general,
vigorous in his prosecution Of at least a part OK
the suits against the canal ring, and the public
may be trusted to forget that Mr.. Fairchild
never recovered q dollar and never put cor

The Pompey Stone.
Rochester Post -Ex press.


The famous Pompey stone, now in the State
museum at Albany, is the most noted of very
limited class of relics. 1t is a bowlder about
fourteen inches long and twelve wide, bearing on
its face an unmistakable figure and inscription.
1t was discovered at Watervale, in the township
of Pompey-net far from Manius, Onondaga
county, about sixty-five years ago. Historians
and scientists have specuated on its origin with
out positive results, and it still remains as per-
picking an enigma as when first brought to notice.
The figure in the center of this stone represents
o serpent twining about the trunk of tree At
the left is plainly engraved Leo De-VL, 1920.
On the right of the serpent is capital l. with
several inferior marks, doubtless meant for small
letters, beneath which are two peculiar charac-
tsrs that look very much like Indian totems.
This stone IS supposed to furnish the earliest
known evidence of the presence of Europeans On
the soil of New York State and to have been de-
signed for grave monument for some unknown
Spanish edventurer Who with his comrades
had penetrated the wilderness in search Of gold
or silver during the early part of the sixteenth
century
