THE BOHEMIAN DEFINED.

Were 1 asked to define a Bohemian
in few words, l would reply that he
is one who loves life deeply-and I'M
derstands it not at all. The day and
the night and the things thereof COM
pei him as Argive Helen compelled her
lovelorn Paris; and he knows as little
of their mysteries as the Trojan spring
aid knew of the subtle HelenS inmoSt
heart.
Yet, he is not unhappy in his ignor-
ance. 1t is enough that he is living,
and of the earth, without trying to
penetrate the secrets that are hidden
behind the veil inviolate. He is
spiritual naterialist, filed with the ar
dor of learning, the love of the good
and beautiful, the worship of nature,
and of natures likeness as expressed
in art-and yet 60, contrary and many
sidedD he has within him decided
hankering after the f1eshpots.
When aroused from the apathetic
feeling toward exterior things that or
dinarily envelops a worshipper of the
muses., your Bohemian is a Jacobin of
the Jacobins, ever ready to tilt against
the existing order, and ever setting
himself heavy tasks to do-which gen
orally remain unfulfilled. Like Brown
ing's ''Waring," he has nearly always:
mo thing dole-but great things un-
done.
In a phrase, 1 should say that a
Bohemian, considering the word in it's
broadcast sense, is person of capabil-
ity without applicability. When he
possesses both of these qualities he
becomes a candidate for the honor role
of time.
But the browning curse of Bohemia
is indirecticn. Throughout all its
length and breadth blows the wrath of
recl1lessness. For one hour crowded
with crimson life, the average fellow of
the brotherhood is content to live
lustrum of regret.
Worth, talent, brains, genius-call it
what you willis the first essential for
citizenship in this strange land The
second is red-bloodedness-w COM

KEARNYS FORCED MARCH.

It was a fact Kearny had wired to
Washington and got orders to march
his brigade to Alexandria and take the
first steamer to the York river. There
was where explicit official language
came into play again. The first
steamer after he arrived but it had
been taken for granted in Washing
ton that Slocums train loads would
arrive and sail by the time Kearny's
men could foot it 80 miles. They had
made a forced march and now held
the right of way in the streets of Alex
andria, so by night in the wake of
Kearny's column, the leading regi-
ment of his brigade was on board the
steamer S. R. Spalding-our steamer
scoring the nine points of law against
US once more. Kearny and his Jerseys
beat in the race to the battlefield by
twenty-four hours; but, we had had
our railroad ride according to war
department orders"
