Victor Hugo.

When Victor Hugo was scarcely fifteen,
without communicating his intention to
any one, he made up his mind to compete
for the poetical prize that was annually Of
fered by the Academic Franchise. 1t was
not without considerable timidity that the
young student ofthe College Decotte hand
ed in his composition at the secretary's
office. Its superiority was acknowledged
by the Judges, but unfortunately in the
course of the poem the juvenile author
introduced the couplet-
"And though the thronging scenes of lifeI shun
For me three lustrums scarce their course have
run;n
which the grave Academicians took as a
satire upon the competition, as from the
nature of the poem its author was Judged
to be at least past the years of boyhood.
They accordingly awarded it only an ''hon-
orablG mention, in spite of which, when
the verses were read in public, Victor HUI
go's production was received with the
loudest applause.
In the report that was published there
appeared paragraph to the effect that, if
M. Hugo were reall y only as old as he repre-
sented, he deserved some announcements
from the Academic. This at once aroused
Nine. Hugo's indignation. She sent
categorical statement to M. Raynouard, the

The following incident was given us by
Judge Sam W. Williams, and coming as it
does from gentleman so free from super
stltion, the reader will feel that it was
really wonderful happening.
"There is an old Scotch superstition that
Immediately before death the wrath, the
exact likeness of a living person, appears

There was on Sunday, the eighth day
OF January, 1850, an occurrence took place
which was and still is curious and unac-
countable.

to check the detection. It is a movement
far reaching in its influence, and including
many thousands among its sympathizers,
whose ordinary intelligence entities res
pect for their judgment. A study, there
fore, of some of the details of the novel
scheme becomes at once interesting and
soon fascinating.

From the Poets.
0 my Godl thy creatures are SO frail,

o my God thy creatures are so frail,
Thy bountiful creation is SO fair,
That, drawn before us, like the temple veil,
1thdes the holy place from thought and care,
Giving mans eyes instead its sweeping fold,
Rich as with cherub wings and apples wrought
gold,
Purple and blue and scarlet-shimmering bells
And rare pomegranates on its broidered rim,
Glorious with chain and fretwork that the swell
Ofincense shakes to music dreamy and dim,
TIL on day comes loss that God makes gain,
And death and darkness rend the veil in
twain.

Dark DER us now the clouds of griefare brooding,
Hoarsely the streamlets murmur at our feet;
Bright birds Of song, our eager grasp eluding,
Far from our tree of love and life retreat
But oh! not yet, my gentle friend, shall leaveu US
The fervent hope of sunshine and of joy
And whatsoever of wrong may come to grieve
us,
Let there be one thing grief cannot destroy,
Hope on, hope ever!

and he acknowledged her communication
by saying that, if the author of the poem
had really spoken the truth, he should be

"L'ENFANT SUBLIME Ibis FIRST DUEL.
This and other literary triumphs which
soon followed won for Victor the title of
"Penfant sublime" and his name rang
throughout France. An illustration of the
honor in which he was held is found in the
following anecdote: Once while Victor, a
youth of nineteen, was reading in cafe,
guardsman, impatient for the newspa per,
snatcbed it roughly from his hand. Vic
|
tor turned pale with rage and forthwith
challenged the soldier. A duel was imme-
date y arranged, and in the second round
the youth received slight sword-cut on
the arm. When the guardsman was in
formed that he had wounded "Penfant
sublime" his CONSERVATION was great, and
he declared " If I had known who he was
[ would have let him run me through the
body"
BEGINS HIS LITERARY WORK IN EARNEST.
In June, 1921, Victor had the misfor-
tune to lose his mother, to whom he was
tenderly attached, and who had been his
constant companion. His prospects at this
time were not brilliant His allowance
from his father had been withdrawn on ac-
count of his refusal to lead military life,
and he was thrown entirely upon his own
resources For year he lived on seven
hundred francs, which was the proceeds of
his pamphlets and articles in the Conserva-
tor. But the publication of his first vol
ume of poems, collection of CODES ct
Ballads" brought about happy turn in
his affairs.

Special to the GlODe.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-Mr. Charles r.
Coon, assistant secretary OF the treasury, III
his letter Of resignation, while thanking
Secretary Manning for the assurances OF
satisfaction with his conduct, says, with
reference to Mr.. Manning's statement that
reasons not necessary to explain required
Mr.. Coon's resignation:
/ can only infer from this that the reasong
are political-in other words, L am to retire
from the office to which was appointed some
eighteen months ago because 1 am not in
political accord with my superiors. / beg to
remind you that, early in March last, on the
supposition that there might be feeling of
this kind, frankly Informed the president
and yourself that while 1 had been promoted
to the Office of assistant secretary after
service of nearly twenty years in the treas
ury, without the intervention or solicitation
of single politician, had always been and
still was Republican. That, while did not
deem it consistent with either the circum-
stances of my appointment on the spirit OF
reform in the civil service, to which the ad.
ministration was pledged, to abandon my
Office because of political preference, yet
was ready to do SO at any moment
if desired by you. To this you re-
piled that you desired me to remain, and
assist you, for the present at least. But,
solely intent onsgiving you loyal support IN
matters appertainipg to the public business,
1 have not failed to observe that my contin-
uance in Office has not been acceptable to
considerable portion of the party press. and
very many politicians. The frequent criti-
cisms showered upon you in this connection
have made it plain to me that public sent1-
ment, as concerned one party at least is not
sufficiently to encourage or approve the re-
tention of subordinate officers for reasons
other than political. infer that this is also
the conclusion reached by you.

A Question of Ocean Mail Service. Z.
Special to the Globe.

SpcCldl W Iue
WASHINGTON, Nov. Judge Bryant,
assistant attorney general for the postoffice
department, has advised the second assist
ant postmaster general that bids for pos
tai service between Tampa and Havana,
via Key West, may be received from per-
sons not citizens of the United States. All
that is necessary. he says, is that he shall
be able to swear to faithfully fulfill their
contract and support the constitution of the
United States. This decision may interfere
with the plans of the gentlemen who are
building steamer in Philadelphia to put on
the Tampa, Key West and Havana route.
Foreign competition may beat them out of
the contract, OF at least compel them to bid
a good deal less than they have intended to.
Very strong pressure will be brought to
bear on the department to prevent the re-
ception of bids from persons who are not
citizens, and especially from persons who
do not intend to carry the mails in steamers
having American registers. This route
from Tampa to Havana is by
act of congress made part of the domes-
tic instead of foreign mail service. In the
last postal appropriation of S615. 900 for in
land transportation by steamboat routes,
the postmaster general is authorized to
contract for inland and foreign steamboat
mail service when it can be combined in
one route, when the foreign office or Of
fees are not more than 200 miles distant
from the domestic Office on the same terms
and conditions as inland steamboat serv-
ices. If the services of foreign-built YES
sells shall be allowed to compete for this
contract it will be insisted by American
ship owners and their champions that the
contract will not be let on the same terms
and conditions as inland steamboat service.
This point of American registry as an ele-
ment of contract has not been passed upon
by Judge Bryant. A foreign steamer run
ming between Tampa and Havana would
not be allowed under our navigation laws
to do any freighting Or passenger business
between Tampa and Key West.

Interesting Treasury Figures.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-The books of
the treasury show that the payment of the
gold and silver certificates does not decrease
the currency, as the silver and gold that
represents these certificates are in the treas
ury to be paid out if needed with money at
2 per cent. per annum. The amount of
standard silver dollars in circulation on
June 80 was, in round numbers, $3S, 500,
0O9. The amount outstanding to-day is
S4S, 500, 900. an increase of $1,000, 600.
The maximum of fractional silver in the
treasury ON June was s31, 700, 600; to-day
there is S21, ,900.O in the treasury. De-
Quoting from this the SIS, 900 deposited
by the New York bankers, there is shown
an increased circulation of about 50, 900, 900,
a larger increase than has taken place in
any year from 1879, the year of the re-
demption, until now. On June, 1879,
the fractional coin in the treasury was
Sc, 800, 900. from which point it steadily i'll
creased year by year until it reached the
high figure on June /.

Republican Disheartened.

Special to the Globe.
New YORK, Nov. 1.-An important un-
derstanding was arrived at by the Republi-
can district leaders, who held a meeting at
n late hour last night i'll the Gilsey house.
The Republican canvass is in a demoraliZed
condition. The betting. that a week ago
was 100 to 60 in favor of Davenport, has
yeered directly around. The S25, 900 that
was raised by Logans appeals was only a
morsel for the hungry, and the district
leaders decided to hold conference where
they could talk plainly to each other and
decide what was to be done. Chilled and
disheartened at the treatment he received
from Conelrs committee, and hurt by the
demands for more funds, Mr.. Davenport
days ago went to his home i'll Bath. AS
one of the Republican committeeman said
tonight: Mir. Davenport is not lifting
finger in the canvass. He has gone home,
and is letting the committee do what they
please" Whether he expects defeat and is
preparing for it, or whether his love of Sc
CluSiOn is owing merely to the natural lei
ness of his nature, the committeeman, who
are no friends of his, do not know or pre-
tend to care. In this state of things, with
8 united Democracy supporting the state
ticket, the district leaders began to look out
for their own advantage. The meeting of
the district leaders at the GilSey house to-
night was in the interest of John w. ia
cobs, the Republican candidate for sheriff.
The election of sheriff is of far more i'm
portance to the district leaders than is the
fate of the state ticket. After a long and
earnest discussion it was decided to trade
off everything for the county ticket; to let
assemblymen, senators and the state ticket
alike be sacrificed. By this wholesale
slaughter alone it was unanimously agreed
that a Republican sheriff stands a ghost of
a chance of being elected. This means
certain defeat for the Republican state
ticket. Last night the betting at all the
uptown hotels was 500 to $50 in favor of
Hill.

Reducing Republican Majorities.

Special TO the GIODe.
WATERLOO. Ia, Nov. 1.-The Repub-
licans closed the campaign in this city last
evening with speeches by Larrabee and
Hutchlns. Mr.. Larrabee was the first
speaker, and referred principally to the Re-
publicans Oh their administration of state
affairs in Iowa. Col. Hutchins followed
with discussion of national affairs, with
especial reference to the tariff and the cleo
ton of United States senator to succeed
Senator Wilson. The indications point to
the election of the Republican ticket in this
county by reduced maiorities, the principal
sArinkage being on the legislative ticket.
