THE POETRY OF WHITTIER.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir Your readers will Join heartily in the kindly
sentiments of the editorial article In odays Tribune
entitled Sweet Old Age" which article will greet
the venerable and beloved poet Whittier this week. on
the occasion Of his eighty fifth birthday 1t is
generally wiser and safer 10 understate than to over
state the virtues Of those praise; but when You
quote the critics" saying that Whittier has not
given to the world any manifestation OF what the pro
found or sophisticated call poetic genius, am glad
to think that not only yourself but the great majority
of the reading public not sufficiently profound or
sophisticated to agree with these critics. Shakespeare
himself has no surer claim to poetic hngship than
through the exquisite fitness Of his finest thoughts
Not only are they beautiful In themselves but their
beauty is redoubled bv reason Of their special aD
proprlaenesS TO the occasion, dramatic other, that
brings them out Bearing I'm mind this double eN-
ceence OF intrinsic beauty combined with aptness 10
some great OCCASION let me quote the opening couplet
OF Whttiers hymn written for the opening OF the
American Centennial Celebration of 1876;
our fathers God from out whose hand
The, centuries fail like grains Of sand
Is there much. or Is there anything, in the whole
range OF poetry that excel these two lines In their
apprOpriateness, completeness and lofty subllmty
How the sanity and patriotic poet must have thrilled
with emotion when this magnificent image hrst came
to him! FREDERICK hEffEL'

OBITUARY..
WILLIAM GORMAN WILLS.

London Dec 14.-Wllliam German Wills. the we'll
known dramatlst, died at Guys Hospital to-day. He
was borne in 1928, in Kilkenny County, Ireland He
kept all his terms at Trinity College. Dublin. but was
not graduated. When he was quite young he studied
at the Royal Irish Academy. In 1866 Mr.. Wls's
play "The Man of Aire' was produced. "Hinko' ap-
peared in 1871, and from that time on plays by Mr.
Wills appeared in rapid succession. "Chares the
First Eugene Aram,7 Mary Queen o. Scots and
Buckingham" the best known OF his works mp TO
1870 About that year Mr. Wills resumed the practice
Of portrait painting at which he was decidedly success
full. Among his sitters the Princess Louise and
the infant Princess Victoria In 1875 Mr.. yllls's
play Jane Shore' was produced at the Prncess's
Theatre, where II ran for five consecutive months.
Among his other wellhnown plays "Ninon, y
OLIVIA "NcT Gwynne, civilian and Susan.

being Ms M SrGss anS sas
Mr.. Wills was an eccentric character and certainly
q man OF poetic genius. There are passages in his
tragedy of Charles, the First" and in his play OF
Eugene Aram' that show a vast power OF imagine
ton together with subtle command OF the sympathy
that reaches human hearts. The farewell words OF
King Charles, spoken 10 his wife, are irresistibly
touching and have q splendid dignity. The author
OF the scene of Eugene Aram's encounter with House
manu. and Of the OF Mephistopheles TO Faust,
was assuredy writer possessed OF the great and con-
vincing charm Of STYLE Mr.. Wills looked Mt all sub
jects with the eye OF poet and, in an era when al
most all the tendencies around him were toward
PaganIspl cynlcism and critical satire, he was not
afraid to dream and to utter a dreamers heart VINO
ever thought OF high and fine subject for the stage
inevitably thought Of Wills the man to treat it In
high and fine manner He was not, however, frugnl
of his resources, thoughtful OF his reputation, or
careful OF his health. He has done many fine things
his novel of "The wfe's Evidence" would alone have
made any a reputation; but he seems to have had
prodigous wealth OF feeling and thought and strength
and TO have squandered idly upon the passing hour
Writer'S of not 1.-THE OF his originality and sweetness
make the world ring with the din Of their selfasser
ticn: but comparatively few people outside OF the
theatrical SET have heard much OF Wills or know any
thing about him. His death Is the extinction Of very
brilliant mind and the close OF in which. II
therewas seem thing to BE- deplOred, there was also
much TO be named with honor and remembered with
gratitude.

Sneak thieves have during the last week helped them
selves 10 costly wraps left In halls OF houses where
receptions were in progress. 1t will be wise for all
guests at receptions TO leave their wraps In charge
servants, who will give them In return checks for the
same thereby nsuring safety. Last week az OF
Wednesdays receptions two handsome sealskin wraps
were taken by thieves.
