The YOUNGER Dumas.

The associated press brought. yester-
day. a brief reference to the burial
Of the younger Dumas In one of the
suburban cemeteries OF Paris.
Alexander Dumas. the younger. how
ever distinguished his career in literary
life. will be remembered chiefly for the
reason that he was his fathers son.
The elder Dumas. who died twenty
five years ago. was as extravagant a
character as the literary circles in
Paris have produced in modern times.
Born in 1902. he was an illigilmate
child. He was an idle and mischievous
youngster. his early days were spent in
poverty, he seemed uttely TO lack fit
ness for any useful career. But he
drifted into the writing of dramas.
and his talents soon found a field.
Much that was contributed Ito pass
ing literature by the elder Dumas
fell long ago into oblivion. But the
was the author OF THE Three Mus
keteers." "a thrilling romance the popu-
iarlty of which survives to this day.
and. more than fifty years ago. he
wrote the Count of Monte Christie"
with which English literature has
nothing to compare, unless 1t be Da MEL
Defoe's Robinson Crusoe."
The younger Dumas. a child of the
city Of Paris. was born In 1924. He
was twenty-four years old when Louis
Philippe was driven out of France; he
witnessed the seizure of an imperial
crown by Napoleon the Third; he knew
many of the ms and outs Of the Third
Empire; he was in mature manhood
when Sedan was fought; he was. dur
ing the closing twenty-five years of his
life. a citizen of the French republic.
Kingdom, empire. republic-it was all
the same to Dumas; he wrote for the
stage, and with politics he had nothing
whatever to do.
In early life Dumas wrote verse by
the yard. but 1t was indifferent stuff.
He studied to be a master in the senu-
Gus school of French literature; his IA
nous Camille" abtests his success.
Thereafter many successful ventures
in dramatic writing came from his pen
The became famous as the dramatic
exponent of the demi-monde. The
younger Dumas was a man Of attain
ments in many directions. He cultivat-
ed a taste for painting-his collection
of pictures was sold. in 1892, for more
than half a million francs. He became
a member of the French academy
twenty years ago, and was promoted
to the rank of commander of the Lee
gion of Honor. All in all, in view Of
the triumphs his works have scored,
he must be mated as a literary success;
his Camille has probably been trans
lated into every language in which TO
nances are written.
Yesterday, in the presence of a vast
concourse of literary people and ac-
tors. so the dispatches say, Dumas the
younger was consigned to grave in
the cemetery at Montmartre.

THE OUTDOOR GIRL.

What az the merry maiden goes a-rdding
on the wheel,
And wears a graceful costume that is
&. short above the heel?
Can any one gainsay 1t, that though
changed in mode of dress.
She's of the gender feminine and not q
whit the less?
And IL she dons the bloomer or the
a knickerbocker clothes.
Is not her person just as sweet as any
blooming rose?
What If the college maiden rows a shell
r-. or souls with the oar,
Or takes a goal in football field or bowls
4, upon the floor,
Is she is any less a woman II her skin Is
very brown,
Than when she trailed her skirts in mud
t1 and wore high-necked gown?
And IL she boxes out her foe and fences
like a man,
Lacks she any fascination, whateer her
=, scheme or plan?
So far as all experience of men with wo-
~ men goes,
For every ten of marriages nine have
The very latest woman, with her muscle.
brains or pluck.
May bring new joys to welded life and
give us better luck.
OF one thing am certain from the
widest range. of view,
Old fashioned types must stand aside and
make way for the new. 49,
Thank heaven for the change that's come
iiec and fascinating fads.
For me, the merry outdoor girl who emu
lates the lads.

Coast DefenseS.

Secretary Lamont. IKE some Of his
predecessors in the war department,
warns the country of the folly OF delay
in Strengthening our coast defenseAi
That our present coast defenses are
in the main wholly inadequate IL uni-
versaliy admitted. Modern guns would
in a very short time riddle the fortifca-
lions which are supposed to guard the
rivers and harbors OF the country. A
modern system OF coast defenses IL
needed so that the big cities on the
coasts and the cities along the big
rivers that empty into the sea may feel
a sense OF security. Commendable
progress has been made in building q
navy worthy OF the United States. but
in case of trouble our ships would be
unable adequately to protect most of
our big coast cities from the attacks OF
an enemy.

SUNDAY. DECEMBER 1. 1895.
How IL Happened.

Congressman Richardson's speech,
when he presented the name of Mr..
Crisp In yesterdays caucus of house
democrats. was nothing IL not mirth-
full We mean this as far as outsiders
are concerned; we can believe that
within itself the caucus was a solemn
affair. The congressman said that he
and his democratic associates had met
to honor Mr.. Crisp. The caucus was
he said. small band of struggling pa
triots. with full knowledge that their
declaration would be impotent. That
was fearful enough, but Mr.. Richard
son added: why that happens. this
is not the occasion or the place to in
quire." Even the caucus must have
of sarcasm.
Now. Mr.. Richardson knows how II
happens that. with a democrat-so to
speak-in the white house. a huge
democratic majority In the Fifty-third
congress becomes a struggling band of
laration win be impotent In the Fifty
fourth congress. He knows how, until
1894. Tennessee had gone democratic.
almost without exception. since 1870.
He knows why 1t is that, in the FIFTY
third congress. Tennessee had eight
democrats and two republicans in the
house of representatives while in the
house. for the Fifth-fourth congress,
the state has six democrats and four
republicans. Even Tennessee couldn't
stand It.
We are glad that in his caucus
speech presenting the name of Mr..
Crisp for the empty honor of the nomi-
nation for the speakership. Mr.. Rich
ardson managed to get in little lick
for the gold and silver coinage of the
constitution" The member from Ten
nessee has been tried and not found
wanting on the silver issue. He sat In
the Fiftythird congress and shared
IN the tedious work OF President Cleve-
lands extra session. On the eventful
first day Of November 1898, when the
question of repeal came to its final
vote in the house. Mr.. Richardson was
one OF the sixty-eight democrats who
dared to defy the goldbug administra-
ton: he voted with the silver men.
They say that Mr.. Crisp is out and
out for free coinage now. What
mistake he made when for policy's
sake he sflenced his convictions. In
extra session days. and fell In line with
the enemies of free coinage. He
thought then that he would rather be
speaker again than be right: 1t hap
pens that he is right now. but he can
not again be speaker. Yet he might
have saved the day for silver and for
himself the speakership.

Ordered Back.

The weakness In the Oriental sttua-
ton has cropped out: 1t Is nor with the
sultan this time-he Is probably in a
merry mood. sick man" that ne Is.
Every reader of the foreign dispatches
VIII remember that a request was
made. to all appear ance by the powers,
for permission % send extra gunboats
through the Dardenelles. the plan being
90 put ships of war behind the suitan's
promises. -Al
London ordered the Dryad 20 pro-
coed, under certain assurances that
came from the foreign Office at Con-
stantinople. Then the sultan protested.
Yesterday the Standard raised a query
as to what would happen were some
OF the powers. under whatever pretext,
10 decline to follow England's course.
This mornings news is that the Brit
ish government has backed down; the
Dryad has been ordered back. And
the Information under Constantlnople
date is that the powers are not in ac-
cord
Thus n has always been; thus Il hap
pens that there is such a thing as the
Turkish empire in existence to-day.

present tendency in shaping the game
so as to do away with the element of
brute strength so far as possible
should be favorable to the colleges
which have a smaller stock OF giants
upon which to draw for football ma
terial than Yale has. The Register
declares that 1.-THE new rules have been
found to work fairly well. The game
has been more interesting to lay OBJ
servers by reason Of the added ele-
ment OF frequent punting which foot
ball audiences always like to see. Those
terrible mass plays Of last season are
not regretted in their absence and the
game as a whole is cleaner and less
deadly than before. although It still
remains a game OF remarkable inten-
sfty"
