During the past spring and summer our
Southern brethren have thronged into
Colorado. and after climbing our peaks,
exploring our canyons and s~nowballing In
midsummer to their hearts content, re-
turned delighted with our scenic attrac-
tons, and charmed by the spirit of hearty
hospitality with which they were well
coined. Now it should be our duty, and
a pleasant one, to return these visits.
The Fort Worth railroad has given us the
opportunity. Their advertising depart
ment has Just issued a pamphlet entitled
Winter Tourist Routes and Rates from
the Summit to the Sea-" giving reduced
excursion rates for this winter season and
a number Of different routes through the
South.
Coloradoans cannot Justly plead the
necessity of escaping from a severe winter,
but many of them would be pleased with
the change to a emi-tropical climate
where the flowers p~erpetually bloom, and
a visit TO places Of such historic interest
as Houston, Austin, Galveston, San An
tonic or New Orleans. Or, if they should
wish stranger or more tropical chimes,
these routes include a trip to such interest
ing old places as Monterey, Saltillo and
the City of Mexico. Full particulars may
be obtained by addressing Geo. Ady. gem
eral passenger and ticket agent of the
Denver, Texas X Forth Worth railroad,

TAmso BY POETRY.
9oIT the Young Duke Of burgundy Wa
Reclaimed by FcncIon.
Plato thourlt thnt Lors ana the most

Plato thought that Lows arc the most
untamablc OF wild boasts, and his
opinion has had eminent supporters.
Pope probably meant much tho same
thing when he suil that schoolboys
have no character.
In view Of this opinion, the story Of
Ten lon and the young Dul.e Of Bur
Eundy has u peculiar Significance.
There &, indeed. no rgorc signal KAN
pl2 OF the imrlCuso iUiPOrtancco Of well
conceived. wall Girrctca methods of
education than t.ic transformation
which Fcnclon wrought IN l.iS royal
pupil.
X morc intricllhlc subject probably
evc exercised the wits uld patience
II his instructor Before lie was
placed il the lI@.iG5 Of I7oiclon, the
duke was in simple trdth much more
of IL wild beast than a rational human
being.
One Of his chief pleasure vas in
kicking and biting all Iii, attendants
who approached him. At times he
refused 10 speak Il word for hours On
other occasions he would not eat,
though tempted with all the triunlphs
Of the royal cooks.
His grandfather, Louis XIV. had
becn ut infinite pains TO obtain for him
the most judicious attendants and
Tutors: but all had given up their
charge us hopeless. At length Fen
elon was called in.
Fenclou was not without experience
in dealing with young people. and lie
had already written II book on educa
ton; hut his peculiar fitness for the
t;uik lie had undertaken was that of a
character unique i'll charm and sym
pathetic insight.
In Tcnclon's dealings with his pu.
pill he had n leading idea. To which
perhaps educationists have not given
the importance il deserves This idea
was that for every individual there is
n poet who above all others appeals
To the deepest instincts of his nature,
and Is therefore fitted &c be one of the
highest forces in educing the best
qualities Of his mind and heart.
Fcnelon had not boon long with his
pupil before he discovered that with
all his ungovernable passions he had
u "Nirgilian soul"-in other words,
that in the depths of the boys nature
there was that which responded To the
grace and tenderness which distinguish
Virgil above all other poets.
Virgil accordingly was made the in
struncnt through whom he sought to
effect his ends. The result exceeded
his hopes. Virgil did indeed become
the dukes favoritc poet, and the chief
formative ]imtlucncc of his brief life.
