Sir Edwin Arnold, author Of THE
Light Of Asia" and the greatest living
authority, perhaps, Oh the religions of
India and Eastern Asia generally, is
about entering on a tour Of the United
States and Canada, and literary cirles
feel renewed interest in the man and
his works This interest is three fold,
because Edwin Arnold is emphatically a
three sided man His personal history
is interesting in itself, and all general
readers know him in "The Light of Asia"
and other works on Oriental religions,
but in addition 10 those he is among the
most able and influential editorial writ.
ers in Great Britain. For The London
Daily Telegraph he has written nearly
1000 leading articles and editorial com
ments, and he is credited by politicians
with having kept the Beaconsiield gov
ernment in power long after il would
otherwise have fallen under the fierce
attacks on its eastern policy"
The popularity Of these famous and
powerful editorials was that they were
written at white heat and literally on the
spur Of the moment; for measures are
frequently decided in the house of COM

best editorials were in type within two
hours after the vote which inspired

With this Is given portrait of Ell Rio Rey,

Times says is unquestionably the best two
year-old of the year. lie has been considered

Fl Rio Rey is thus described by The Spirit:
Is bright chestnut, with a narrow blaze in
his face extending over the nose the near

beautifully expressive face and a large full
eye Of intelligence, large nostrils, long taper
ing ears, round mu2zle, high cheeks, an ex-
qulsite neck, full throttle, short from the
throat latch to the breast, which is full but
narrow, well inclined shoulders, a grand back
and deep ribs closely coupled. and full flanks
His best and most striking point is his enor-
nous quarters, which arc as massive as those
Of steer, and run away down full to the
gaslsin; his arms are very big and broad, and
his legs are good, as are his feet.
His worst point is his ankles, which are not
the best. His action is rather slovenly and
sluggish in his slow PAGES, but when extended
Is very taking and his propelling power enor-
nous In short, he is like his brother EN-,
peror of Norfolk in style-enormous size,
bone and substance joined TO high quality.
