a Great Spanish Poet.

"As long as there is anyone to
speak and think Spanish Nunez de
Arce will remain one Of the greatest
literary figures Of the nineteenth
century. Future generations win
admire him; but posterity will not
be able to love him as we love him. "
With these words Echegoray, the
Spanish dramatist, closed his ad-
dress on Don Gaspar Nunez de Arce
OF the festival given in honor OF tho
poet at Madrid q few weeks ago.
The festival was attended by many
OF the most famous men OF Spain.
Authors and artists presented to
him wreaths of laurel and large al
bum containing drawings and
sketches In prose and poetry. Nunez
de Arce, who is known as the Span
ish Tennyson, was born OF Val
ladolid on August 6, 1884. He stud
led philosophy in Toledo. Among
his famous poems are aGrietos del
Combate Battle Criesy' and aUlti-
ma Lamcntacion de Lord Byron. lie
| is also the author Of number Of
dramas. He published some time
AGO the series of lectures which he
delivered before the Spanish acad-
erny in 1876. Chicago Post,

REVIVAL or THE STOCK.
Makers of Ncckwear Go Back to the
Forties for Fashions.


THE revival Of the style of wear
ing stocks" said IN old dry goods
man to the Pittsburgh Dispatch,
''recalls o story my father used to
tell me when ! was o boy of how
they compelled the soldiers Of the
German army to wear needlepoints
on their stocks, under their chins,
to make them hold their heads erect.
The stock recalls memories of the
forties, when the fashion was in it's
glory. The dude of that period was
not complete without stock
fastened around o bishops collar,
First, they were made to buckle In
the back, then to be kept in place by
spring, which held the stock tight
against the collar. About six years
ago, when I was IN London, tho
swell haberdashers told me that
they were making on endeavor to re-
vive the d-fashioned stock. They
thought they could force il upon.
swelldom by stages, SO they first in-
troduced o collar, fashioned after
the stylish collars Of the forties,,
with the points coming up well un-
der the chin. Then, a number OF
swells were induced to add the stock
to the collar. The effort proved %
feeble one, In o year, from few
people wearing them, the number
dropped, until only old men who al
ways cling to the old-fashioned idea
remained. ] was surprised to see
upon what great scale the stock
has been introduced into America.
The neckwear manufacturers hero
evidently consider that they will be
more fortunate than their English
brothers were six years ago. Z

It was after the review that ] mada
the personal Acquaintance Of the
officers with whom I was to have the
good fortune to fight for d cause
which was already dear to me, All
made me most cordially welcome,
but it was with Kearney that
found myself most at home. He II
was who could speak to me Of the 1
French army in Algeria In 1870, and
OF the memories left by my family IN
that country. He did SO Ia terms
which deeply touched the heart OF
the exile, the son CT the due d Orleans
Kearney had participated in one OF
those campaigns on African ground
which brought out strongly the
merits of the French soldier. He
had also associated himself with the
triumphs of France in the italian
campaign Of 1850.
One who saw Philip Kearney rec
ognized in him the typical soldier.
AS early as 1849 the young and bril-.
liant cavalry officer had lost his left
arm before one of the gates of Mex
leo, at the battle of Churubuseo.
His infrmity did not prevent him
from always mounting the most vig-
orous- looking horses, which he con-
trolled on the march with rare ele-
gance. holding in his hand his reins
and his naked sword. A head, the
picture Of energy, framed by the
cape which almost invariably hung
about his shoulders, n strongly
marked nose and q piUrcing eye,
