BROWNING AS A READER.
Rocollections of the Poet by Ono WI
Knew Him Intimately.

Rocoi1ections of the Poet by Ono Who
Knew Him Intimately.
When think of the career of Brown
ing as a whole, 1t presents itself before
me in those words with which Shelley
opened his Triumph of Life:"
swift as spirit fastening to his task
or glory and OF good, the sun sprnng forth
Rejoicing in his splendor, and the mask
or darkness fell from the awakened earth"
Sunlike, that wondrous intellect
illumined the dark places of the world
and of the soul. IT, in stripping tho
mask of darkness from the earth, it
cast also some sharp and confusing
shadows, this also was authentic suns
work.
Mypersonal acquaintance with Brown
ing dates back to period now remote
On returning for awhile to London from
abroad-perhaps in 1S53-he looked up
my brother, who had recognized in him
the anonymous author of Pauline, and
had for some years preceding been a
strenuous admirer and champion of
"Pippa Passes," "Sordello' and other
noble poetic works, then mostly Il do
not say universally regarded with that
nervous and petulant dislike which
testifies to real Indifference unwilling
to be coerced into inquiry. Browning
felt sincerely indebted to my brother
for his advocacy, and acknowledged it
in handsome and energetic terms.
was introduced to him soon after
ward, and saw him once or twice on each
of his ensuing visits-never very long
ones-to London. Well do 1 remember
that evening in 1856 at the temporary
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Browning, near
Marylebone Church, when Tennyson
read aloud his recently published poem
of MAUD" and my brother took sketch
of him as he sat on the sofa with the
volume held high up to suit his short
sight. When Tennyson had concluded,
Browning was implored to read out his
Era Lippo Lippi," which, with some lit
tie pressing, he consented to do The
contrast between the two readers was
interesting and highly characteristic.
Tennyson in his introduction to his
Mort Arthur" has we'll described his
own elocution-''mouthing out his hol-
low o's and as "(except that ''mouthing," :"
as term of disparagement, should be
altered into some milder word) his
grand, deep voice sways onward with a
long-drawn chant, which some hearers
might deem monotonous, but which
gives noble value and emphasis to the
metrical structures and pauses.
Browning's voice, which was at once
rich and peculiar, took much less account
of the poem as rhythmical whole; his
delivery had more affinity to that of an
actor, laying stress on all the light and
shade of the composition-its touches of
character, its conversational points, it's
dramatic give-and-take. In those quail
ties of elocution in which Fennyson was
strong, and aimed to be strong, Brown
ing was contentedly weak, and vice YER
sa. To which of the two modes of read
ing the preference should be accorded
will remain matter of taste: in the very
small audience on that occasion most
were, / think, in favor of Tennyson.-

Marketing Strawberries.

When we begin picking, writes Presi-
dent Smith, of the Wisconsin Horticult-
ural Society, the boys and girls are en-
gagged ahead. Each picker has two
boxes-one to put perfect berries in, the
other for small ones Then boy whose
business is to carry boxes takes the
filled boxes and leaves the empty ones.
He puts the filled boxes in a crate, and
when this is full, it is carried by an
othe. boy to the cellar on q wheelbarrow
with springs on it. They stay here un-
til thoroughly cooled. We sometimes
use ice to do this. They are handled as
little as possible. We make our own
crates of lath, nailed on to end boards
of lumber of the right width We drive
to market on walk. Each crate holds
16 boxes. The fruit is carefully taken
to the depot, but after leaving our hands
1T is sometimes abused by express
agents. 1t takes seven laths to make a
16-qt crate. A boy will put up one in 10
minutes. A 24-qt crate can be made at
q cost OF not over five cents. We place
three laths on the sides. / sonnet times
bribe the express boys not to steal the
berries by offering them all they can
eat.

DISTRICT COURT BUSINESS.
Iron Wednesdays Daily


In the district court today G. F. Doying
was admitted by Judge Benton to prac-
tice at the Montana bar, his certificate
being found satisfactory. The following
business was done:
No. 1O2-Ellis VS. Quail, replication
filed.
No. 135-Jackson VS. Downing, motion
and affidavit for continuance.
No. 153-Holter Lumber Co VS. Lennon,
demurrer filed
In the case of Black VS. Thomas Gahag-
an the following jury was e%mpanelled:
WIS Wetzel, W | Hickory, D r Mitchell,
] Thornton, B Rumney, ] Wolfe, Milton
Henderson, r Vaughn, M Luther, H II
Higgins, CT Wernecke, T Morrow.
In this suit Mr.. Black sues for $500.
He alleges that Mr.. Gahagan hired two
horses and a buggy from him on Novem-
Der 6 to 60 to Belt. He asserts that Mr..
Gahagan drove the horses so hard
that n of them died on his way back
and that the other suffered so much in
jury as to cause Mr.. Black a loss of 800.
Mr.. Leslie appeared for the plaintiff
and Lewis & Taylor for the defendant.
In the forenoon MIR. Black testified After
the noon recess he was cross-examined.
The case for the plaintiff occupied the
court up to a late hour this afternoon. 1t
is understood that the defense will be
that the horses were not in good condi.
ton when hired.

From Thursdays Daily.l

In Judge BeDton's court today, the
case of Black VS.. Gahagan was still in
progress. Mr.. Gahagan was cross-exam-
ined by Mr.. Leslie. His testimony was
to the effect that he had driven the horses
slowly and that they were not in good
condition when he received them.
Mr.. Taylor objected to some questions
and discussion followed.
The public interest in the suit appears
to be increasing. The number of people
in court is much larger than heretofore.
Mr.. Cockrill has all his records in good
shape and is conducting his department
with satisfaction to lawyers and clients.
Col. McCutcheon looked in for a mo-
ment today and withdrew. 1t was sup
posed that he was in quest of a mandamus
for the benefit Of the Silver Bow five.
The colonel is convinced that the supreme
court will bow to the decision already
rendered by himself, the Helena Herald
and the Silver Bow five.
Ben Rumney is a prominent figure on
the Black ahagan jury. Ben's jolly face
contrasts with that Of others, who seem
tired.
The stenographic work is done by MIR.
Bishop, who came here from Minnesota.
His accuracy is often tested In repeating
questions and is found unimpeachable.
Why are there so many inquiries about
the divorce suits? Do the bachelors
hope to begin suits in the court of n.y.
men? 1t is not often that four or five
married women are declared free to
make new contracts. There is no lack of
people to certify to the good reputation
of the applicants. This practice, intro
duced by Judge Bach would astound the
Chicago courts where divorces are given
without much formality.
What a difference there is between the
wedding and the divorce! There all is
harmony and congratulation. In court
the contestants, glare at each other; the
lawyers state the case dryly; the judge
gives his decision and the two who made
such solem pledges leave the court to
tread apart the highway of life. No
tears, no orange blossoms, no Fluctuations!

There is no question but what good crops

| not uncommon in other states. In 1888
we sowed Is acres of wheat that grew
very tall and was as nice q looking field
as can be shown by any country. We
could get no machine so we did not thresh
it. Last year we sowed the same field,
but had no rain after the grain was in the

last year was the dryest ever known in
