Georges Poetry Was IN. g."

Along back in 1875 I was out for New York
house selling teas in Missouri, says a writer in
the st. Paul Globe. At that time the west was
considerably wider. woolier. shaggier and shak-
er IMAM It is at present. One afternoon found
myself In the editorial rooms OF a neWspaper
office. though why was there the Lord onIv
knows and have never been able to find out.
IL was in Sedalia A rather youn9ish man
with thin, shrewd face, came in and managed
TO attract the editors attention. He said he
had walked in from the plantation, nine miles
stopping at a halfway house to have his chill
and had with him poem that he wanted to
see printed IN the paper. The Sedalia editor
glanced at tho first stanza and then gently but
nrmiy forced it sback into the young man 3
hand The overture of the piece ram
The isles Of Greece the isles of Greecel
Where burning Sappho loved and sung;
Where grew the arts of war and peace,
Where Delos rose and Phoebus sprung:
Eternal summer gilGs them yet,
But all except her sun is SET"
This is fine day" said the Sedalia journal
ist, politely enough.
''Yes, sir; but how about the poemy" queried
the youth; couldn't you accept it?'
20, no." answered the editor "'twouIdn't
do at ALL You see. it is unatural and strained
You say, All except her sun is set That is
Sosuro' You Know, l suppose, that even in
5reece the sun sets once, at least, every twenty
four hours, same as in Missouri" "
But that, my dear sir, is a figure OF speech :"
explained the youth, gravely. at implies that
the glorious climate OF Greece still remains. ~

you ever lear OF any one carrying off a cli-
mater Can you burglarIze a climate? Excuse
me, but frankly, must say that this is little
the rockiest poetry It has ever been my luck to
be steered up against"
Then the young man drew himself I'D an inch
or two and said haughtly:
Sir, this poem was written by Byron"

Byron, Lord George Gordon Byron, if"
Then you didn't write it?n

ALLOW me TO congratulate you Just carry
it back and give it TO Byron and point out to
him the various little flaws, absurdities and

In Need of Information

The new editor Of the Manu- fdcturers'
Record is in need Of information respecting
the hsrbors on the South Atlantic coast.
particularly Savannah barbor. The Record
has always pretended to be devoted 70
southern interests. and when the new man
ayers assumed charge Of IL recently they
announced their purpose to be TO continue
to work for the development Of the south
But the way TO help the south is not to en-
dsavor to build up one place by publishing
incorrect information about another. In
the Record Of March 5, in an article
entitled "a New Deep Sea Outlet" the
statement is made that Savannah has
in her harbor at mean high tide
only 10 feet of water, aud that at low
water there is only feet of water in her
harbor. and II feet on the bar at Tybee.
These misstatements are ine1cusable. They
are calculated to do Savannah a great deal
Of injury. II Savannah has only 10 feet Of
water in her harbor at high tide will the
editor Of the Record explain how it is that
ships drawing more than 21 feet go 70 seq
from her wharvesi Steamers drawing that
depth Of water 60 to sea frequently from
Savannah.
At low tide the depth Of water on the bar
at Tybee is 10 feet, and at high water YES
sells drawing 26 feet can cross the bar.
10 is not believed, Of course. that the mis-
statements about the depth of water in
Savannah harbor and on Tybee bar were
willful, but such lack of information about
so important a matter justifles a doubt as to
whether the south will not be more injured
than benefited by the change that has taken
place in the Records editorial manage
ment

Editor Elliot F. Shepard, whose father
in-law quite correctly estimated him when
he said he was ''more kinds of a

new plan TO work off some of
his hatred for the South. Whenever he has
occasion to use the word confederate he
reverses the c, and spells it thus: 'Oon-
federate." But if the raoe-tipping and
text-quoting old crank imagines that his
frequent exhibitions of asininity arouse any
other feeling than mirth in the south he is
badly mistaken.
