ewes in the Biblioteca Nacional. The crudite
Barrera historian Of the Spanish drama, 10
whom the precious papers were submitted TOT

the whole Of Lopcs letters Will be published.
The publication of Lope de Vegas works In full
was begun IN 1880 and has since proceeded at
the lc.sureiy pace OF one volume year AS
fifty voh mes are expected Mr. Watts looks for
the letters about the middle Of the next century
Whatever may be thought Of Mr.. Wattss sus-
pic.ons as 10 the inimical feeling between Lope
and Cervantes. he is manifestly right In urging
the publication of the letters which have been
so long ignored. Students of Spanish literary
history have sometimes said that the false Don
Quixote" was deliberately intended to force Ger
vantes to complete tis own work. If that can
be believed then one may almost say mat MT.
Watts has taken leaf from the supposit:tious
Avellaneda's experience. lie wants 10 reao Loie

sible plan Of directing public interest to the

Watts is not a conspirator and beneiicent one
against the peace OF mind OF l'ope de vega
Spanish editor. then the writer of this article
cannot read plain print.
The lapses in biography Of Cervantes are
mainly due to the indifference Of his countrynen
for long time to all details concerning his per-
sonality He has now become to them an OBJECT
OF homage similar to that Of which Shakespeare
is the object. and is credited by the writers OF
monographs and essays with infinitely varied
learning But there time when the people
who had Don Quxote' cared nothing about
the author 1t must have been In those days
that the only two authentic portraits OF Ger
vantes disappeared. Mr.. Watts shows that the
accepted picture Is really nothing bI; the enorl

no attempt at deception in the matter Never
