nest STYLE of .stronG Writing"

There is generally an effort on the
part of young writers, and sometimes
with older ones as well, toward strong
writing" 1t is considered clever to
abuse people, and very frequently justice
is sacrificed TO crafty this desire. Strong
writing is all very weH in its place; the
trouble is that too often in the effort to
make it strong" the misguided young
ster only succeeds in making it rank.
Abuse without argument is never strong.
There is 10 particular clevernes3 required
to call brother editor a ring tailed
balloon; a spotted monkey would be
equally effective and would mean just as
little.
The most killing style of strong writing
is where the wgitcr never forgets the fact
that he is a gentleman, and that his mat
ter is to be read by gentlemen and ladies.
Under ordinary circumstances abuse is
never convincing. but rather reflects
upon the writer than upon its intended
object, We may laugh at it us an ex-
ample of western Journalism" but it
disgusts lis all the same.
Nor il abusive ''strong writing" con-
fined TO the western press. The New
York papers, when argument is lacking,
fall back very readily upon billingsgate,
and. like the squid. think to conceal
their own discontinue by discharging
their ink upon the hated rival Yet,
after oil, it is only ink. and in the long
run it serves only to Gpatter themselves.

Some years ago Charles Busch. a
naturalized German-American, accom-
panied by his pretty Italian wife. sailed
Tor France to accept an engagement az a
tenor singer in one Of the opera com.
panies in Paris. En- route, a child. who
named Charles Herman Busch. was born
TO them. The mother died shortly after
reaching France, and the father soon
followed her. The child, having been
born on the high seas, was literally with.
out a country. The French authorities
refused to administer upon the fathers
estate or provide gurdian for the infant
because neither Of the parents was citi-
zen Of the republic. Consul Shackel-
ford could do nothing without permission
from the government.
After two years delay this permission
was finally granted, The American
colony in Paris became interested in the
child, who is SAID to be remarkably
bright and piccocious, and fund has
been subscribed sufficient to rear and
educate him until his 18th year, when an
effort will be made to appoint him a
cadet at thenayal academy at Annapolis.
The little fortune Of $27, 900 francs. the
proceeds Of ms fathers estate, will be
