One of these is Flavel Scott Mines, who
began to earn his living as an office boy
in the great New York publishing estab-
ishment of the Harpers and rose to be
an editor of one of their publications.
Wanting more freedom for the use Of
his pen, he has branched out on an in
dependent literary career. and what he
writes always receives considerate at
tention from editors. He is Il native Of
New York state. having been born at
Cherry Valley in 1866. and, although he
has achieved fame, practically has his
career before him. Here is Il specimen
of his work taken from Il recent issue of
Harpers Weekly. 1t is entitled THE
Reward Of the World and reads as fol-
lows:
He fingered behind. while his comrades
marched on,
A captive to cowardly fears;
He knew not the heights which were steadily
won;
He quailed at the eleafening cheers.
Who fingers behind thinks the battle is lost
AT victory turned he to ily,
But saw the blue standard which futtered and
tossed
From the enemys ramparts on high
Then sought he the city and stood in the mart
And cried that the day had been gained
Forgetting the fear that had lived in his heart,
Forgetting his manhood enchaned.
The people poured out the rich gold at his feet
And wove for his brow Il fair wreath;
They knew not tie sword Of this messenger
feet
Had rusted within the bright sheath
Of Mr.. Hezelziah Butterworth, who is
a native of Rhode Island, and who was
born in 1889, it may be fairly asserted
that although somewhat advanced i'll
years he is still young mentally and phys
ically. For over two decades he has
held the important position Of assistant
editor of The Youths Companion, and
much Of the latter day success of that
weekly has been due to his guidance and
advice.
Some time ago Allan Eric in a con-
tribution to the New York Journalist de-
clared that of all Mr.. Butterworth's po-
etry 1.-The Clocks of Kenilworth" pleased
him best. The theme was suggested by
q ruined church at Jamestown, Va, and
here are some extracts from it:
An ivy spray in my hand | hold,
The kindly ivy that covers the mold
OF ruined halls; it was brought to me
From Kenilworth castle, DER the sea.
O Ivy, Ivy, think Of the queen
Who once swept on her way through the oak
walks green
To Kenilworth, far in the gathering glooms,
Her cayalcade white with silver plu1nes.
They are gone, all gone, those knights Of old,
With their red cross banners and spurs of gold,
And thou dost cover their castles mold,

The next verse describes the entrance
of the queen into the castle, when, to
the alright of ALL the clocks begin to
beat louder and seemed to say. dying.

Then the dark knights say, What is wanting
here?"

FROM THE MOUNTAINS
TWO POETS WHO DRAW iNSPIRA-
TON FROM LOFTY HEIGHTS.

They View Life IS It Is Seen in the
Rockies, and Write About Men Who Are
Types OF Western Charucter-A Strange
Neglect of NATURES Charms.
The poets of the mountains are not yet
classified in the United States, as were
those of the lake school in England
the highland bards of Scotland or other
local singers. At first view it would
seem very remarkable that amid the
glorious scenery Of the Rocky noun
tains the poets should treat Of men
rather than nature. yet it is fact that
to the poetesses rather than to the poets
do we owe the finest touches on natures
subli1nity. .--
Miss Sarah Carmichael Qater Mrs.
Williamson) the Salt Lake poetess,
wrote of the mountains and the great
salt sea near her home in lines Of wild
and wonderful beauty, as in her poem
called '.The Origin of Gold" she told
how
The Fallen One looked on the earth and sneered.
II can guess" said he, why God is feared"
The poem then tells how he took the
lightning and shattered the mountains,
and how
The splintered light in the earth grew cold
And the diction of mortals pronounced it gold.
And other poetesses have tried to por-
tray the majesty Of mountain scenes,
but Joaquin Miller, Bret Harte and

the average.
Miss Rush was born in Lakeville twen-
ty-one years ago. After acquiring q
common school education she learned
telegraphy. and her proficiency led to her
selection as agent, She is a worker in
the W. c. 7. U, and Methodist church
societies. Her latest success was the
conception and execution of Harvest
Home" excursions, when she surprised
the Vandalia magnates by sending sew
eral hundred people into neighboring
states on special trains. and thus netted
profit for the railroad.

Poetry of the War.

Wartime poetry is, i'll proportion to
its volume. transient indeed. and out of
the vast mass of camp songs, poetic ex-
hortations to patriotism and mourning
stanzas produced in d great war it is
rare that more than two or three survive
and become standard classics The
American civil war presented no excep-
tion. 1t is too soon to say positively that
even half dozen poems Of that time
will live, but it is certain that at least
one poet on each side will be quoted for
ages-Father Ryan and Julia Ward

plan or the engineer III charge was
to construct an embanknent across
the mouth Of the valley to intercept the
water Of the Vyrnwy and store it. The
result has been to create Il lake a. miles
in length and from IL quarter to three
eighths Of a mile in width. The en-
bankment or dam is / 1,172 feet in length
The water is led from the lake through
jecting piece of ground. No water can
reach this point until it has been in the
lake considerable time. This building
is fitted with straining appliances of the
most ingenious design, and the water is
allowed to pass into the aqueluct only
after having first gone through copper
wire gauze having 14.400 meshes to the
square inch, and with an aggregate area
Of 204 square feet.
The aqueduct consists chiefly of tun.
nels, through which the ultimate supply
of 100000 gallons day may be passed
without filling them, and three lines of
pipes varying in diameter from thirty
mine to forty-nine inches. Through
out the greater part of their length the
pipes are buried beneath the ground, and
where this is not the case they are car
ried on archways OF led through sub
ways. On the line are four balancing
reservoirs and fltering beds.
In the construction of the viaduct
many obstacles were encountered-rail-
ways, canals and rivers. The crossing Of
the River Weaver was a formidable task,
three pipes being laid at once without
obstructing the traffic.
The crowning feat of the engineer,
however, was the construction Of the
tunnel under the Mersey ut Liverpool,
through which pipes conveying the water
are led.
The cost Of the enterprise when all the
details are completed will be $40 100000

their contemporaries only touch upon
nature incidentally: man and his local
eccentricities is their favorite theme. A
new poet, however, has risen-Cy War
man, Of Denver-and he is evidently
struggling to express somewhat of the
emotions reused in him by Colorado's
sublime views. His recently issued
Mountain Melodies contains some fine
touches, in which, however, the sublime
occasionally yields very suddenly to the
commonplace. as in this. for instance:
L want to go where the flowers blow
On the mountains high and hoary;
Where the summer winds shake the pa
tient pines
And the sun in its glory
Falls DER the stream where the rippies
gleam;
Where the shores are shoal and sandy;
l want to walk where thu flowers talk
On the banks of the Rio Grande,
love the stills in the running rills-
The willowy rills half hidden
That lie In the lap of the gentle hills
In the lap Of the hills unchidden.
I love the leas where the honey bees
Are making sweets from the clover,
And when walk where the flowers talk
lust feel good all over.
''The author offers no apology for the
publication of these rhymes. They were
inspired largely by nature and natures
God. If you have kick coming, kick
higher"
Francis Bret Harte ceased some years
ago to be an American poet. and since
1886 could hardly be called an American
writer, even in prose. Indeed for the
last few years of his residence in New
York he was lecturer and collaboration
rather than writer. In 1878 he was ap-
pointed United States consul to Crefe1d.
Germany, whence he was transferred in
1880 to Glasgow, remaining consul there
till a new administration came i'll.

and in 1854 went to California with his
widowed mother Life was pretty hard

And the clocks slow pulses Of death were
Btil1ed,
And the gay earl smiled. and the wine was
spilled.
And the jeweled queen at the dumb clocks
laughed,
And the flushing goblet raised and quaffed.
The poem then tells how the earl
never won his bride. how the queen
grew old and withered. and the senti-
ment spoken by the clocks is touchingly
pictured in the last lines.
