they were, as preparation for imaginative
work, which hoped in time would follow;
and the result of my first experiments in
the field Of Kentucky fiction is embodied
in the collection now published under the
title Of Flute and Violin 1t is always of
service to know the relation in which a
writer stands to his own work, and l am
frank to declare that l look upon these
tales as so many pieces of wreckage, for
have written them in the face Of storm of
obstacles. Some day hope to come into
port with richer cargo, and from longer,
calmer voyages"
Mr.. Allen is charming man to meet.
He is brilliant conversationist and a
ripe scholar. He has been giving series
of readings through the south lately with
great success He left his old Kentucky
home to live in New York, but is now a
resident of Cincinnati.

FAMOUS As A STORY WRITER.
An Appreciative Sketch of the Life and
Work Of James Lane Alien.

Work Of James Lane Alien.
During the past half dozen years score
of brilliant writer's have sprung up in the
south. One of the latest to attract atten-
tion, and one of the most gifted, is James
Lane Allen, who was born several years
before the outbreak of the civil war, near
Lexington, KY, where the generations of
his family had lived since the time of the
FIRST emigration from Virginia. On his
fathers side he is descended from Colonel
William Payne, an officer of the Revolu-
ton; on his mothers side from Pennsyl-
vania Scotch Irish stock. The early years
of his life were passed on the small farm
which was his birthplace He had few
companions and was much alone with ma
ture. The effect of this communing is
easily discernible in all of his work. He
was first taught by his mother, and at
an early age he read many Of the best
books extant. Later he entered Kentucky
university, at Lexington, which was the
first college of note founded west of the
Alleghenies. Having graduated at the
head of his class, he took up a post gradu-
ate course and received the degree Of mas
ter of arts. 1t was his first intention to fit
himself for a professorship of the Latin or
Greek language. and he had as possible
final aim the teaching of the science Of
comparative philology
After acting as tutor in several Ameri-
can colleges, however, he gaveup academic
life and began to write. The scenes of the
touching tales he has told are laid in Ken
lucky, and the period of which he treats is
generally that which is known as "before
the war" He describes the agriculturists
of the blue grass section as being ga cross
between the bucolic and the aristocratic,
rs gentle as shepherds and as proud as
kings, and not seldom exhibiting among
both men and women types of character
which were as remarkable for pure, tender,
noblestates of feeling as they were COM
monplace in powers and cultivation Of
mind" Mr.. Allen first attracted attention
by several beautifully written articles de-
scribing the Trappist Monastery Gethsem-
ane, and his subsequent romances, "The
White Cowl" and "Sister Dolorosa,"
founded upon material obtained while in
vestigating the convent and monastic life.
Speaking of the motives of his work re-
Gently, Mr.. Allen said: "My literary aim in
writing the articles descriptive of life and
nature in Kentucky has been to train my
