LITERARY GOSSIP.

James Lane Aliens last novel, 'The
Choir Invisible" has had a splendid
sale. In all the chief literary centers
Of u country in the month of August
it led the sale of all other books but
n Soldiers of Fortune" These w
were far in advance of even "Quo
Vadis" or Bellamy's Equality" or
DuMaurier's THE Martian.' It has
reached it's 50th thousand, and in Eng
and is in the fifth edition. It is a
work Of genius, and lis style is praised
very much by the bes, -!,1glish reviews
and great weeklies. VI give a few
samples. The Guardian says cit is GER
tain to win the favor of the contem-
plative, the faithful, and the lovers of
pure art and pure thought" The Lon
don Saturday Review says Mr.. Allen
lis a writer who canno put pen to
paper without revealing how finely
sensitive he is to beauty" The London
Speaker says: I'VE trust there are few
who read it who will fail to regard it's
perusals as one of the new pleasures
OF their lives. . 1t is, in plain
English, a beautiful book, beautiful in
language and in sentiment, in design
and in execution" The London Acad-
envy says 1T is a fine achievement"

is good IL not well received. We make
but one extract:
"On the whole. the wiser heads
among n colored people themselves
can hardly fail to see hat their polit-
zeal preferment must not precede but
follow their advancement in the other
walks Of life. A goodiy number OF ne
groes achieving distinction az lawyers,
or as physicians, or as ministers. or as
educators, or as business men, will, by
the impression produced upon public
opinion, erec far more for the politi-
cal advancement of their race than
ever SO many egro politicians getting
themselves elected t congress or ap-
pointed to other offices, and infinitely
more than the horde Of colored place
hunters, who besiege party committees
for influence or appointing officers for
favors in the name of the colored vote,
and who thus intensity the repulsive-
ness of one OF h most baneful fea-
lures of our political life"
So there are two capable advisers Of
the negroes-one an educated southern
negro Of established character, and one
a highly educated German of distin-
gished ability and renown. They agree
as to the main points.

WATTERSON CHANGING FRONT
AGAIN.

An amusing report comes from Ken
lucky. Of all the EXTREMIST of ex-
IRENE men born in the south and not
positively owned by the moneyed pow
err, the EXTREMIST, the most violent, the
most d%enunciatory, the most
able has been Henry Watterson, edi-
tor of The Louisville Courier-Journa1.
He had denied in his violent diatribes
all that he had beer teaching through
the years. He had exhausted a redun-
dant vocabulary in maledictiOn and
fumes. There was nothing too mean
or bitter or malicious that he could
say that he has not said. AS the ably
edited Nashville Sun, a very sound ex-
ponent of true democracy,
"What is this we hear from Ken
very types on which the editorials were
printed fairly glowed from the fire of
their i~mprecatiOns?"
And yet after attending recently
gold conventions and hob-nobbing with
republicans and all enemies Of the real
democracy, this %slanderer and insulter
Of far better men than he is, has sud-
denly changed front and all because
h new. very able, very popular
Louisville Dispatch was gathering in
h subscribers to Watterson's paper,
and by the thousands. It is pitiable to
see this blatant blower and bully sud
denly changing note and, trying to
make favor with the hundreds of thou
sands Of democrats in t,e south he has
insulted and villiper d. The Sun,
that is close enough t. l-eep the run of
Watterson's political e~capades and in
suits, says this of the gifted Hopper:
What is this We hear from Ken
lucky! What. that sweet, soft voice
coming from the editorial window of
The Courier-Journal! Surely We are
mistaken. Investigation proves. how
ever. that it is even so. The old rem
egade is actually posing as if ready to
drop right into democratic arms, if only
those arms would open. Did eve any
one note such a change! Watterson,
the epithet singer. the ~denouncer. the
Brian de Bots Guilbert of the goldbug
crusade, the bouncer in chief Of thu
Hanna annex. is actually cooling as
softly as a gentle dove and calling for
harmony n a better condition Of af-
fairs"
We would not have believed this of
Watterson If he had not SO ~grievously
offended by his course latterly. He
win never be able to restore himself
to the confidence Of the democracy,
whatever his gifts and however supple
his genuflexions. He is no longer to be
trusted. Hear him, and we only give
a small sample, in his efforts to con-
ciliate the democrats and keep them
all from dropping his paper:
The semi-weekly messenger. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1897-1908, 1897-09-24

But Of late We have got q good deal
mixed. There ave been hard feelings.
There have been harder words. These
have helped nobody except the republi-
cans; but IL all of US be democrats, as
We claim to be, they are full Of evil
omen in the present and for the future.
Is there no way to stop the foolishness?
They say they are democrats. So
are we. They say they are against the
money power So are We. They say
they are the poor mans friend.' So are
We. They say they are for silver equal
and interchangeable with gold. So are
we. Where, then, is the difference, saw
ing bad blood. hard feelings. rough
words n pride of opinion? None
whatever, that We can SEE providing
that all OF US be as honest as We pre-
tend to be-"
Well! we'll! That will do. A meta
morphosis! A summersault! A flop! A
big example Of eating words. A back
down. Is it the cry Of a drowning
man? Is it the wooing of a repentant
soul? Is it barney? What can the
matter be? The Nashville Sun says.
They are losing circulation as they
have lost influence, and bankruptcy is
staring them in the face. Or is as The
Louisville Dispatch declares, that The
COurier-JOurnaPs editor has had his
tail cut OIL in Mark Hanna's steel trap
and is only anxious that all other foxes
shall adopt his style. The dispatch
imagines the old fox, Watterson, ar
guing his ase to the other foxes in
true WattersOn style:
"'You say o are foxes. So I'M I.
You are all the friends and guardians
of ducks and eggs. So I'm I. You love
chickens and turkeys. So do I. You
are opposed to the dogs. So am 1.
| Where, then, is the difference, saving
in the style Of wearing the tail. I am
the genuine, the original and only reg
ulation style of fox, and you must all
surrender your pride Of opinion" about
long, bushy tails, or I will not recog-
nize you as members Of the fox family
| The foxes still e long, bushy tails.
and the bob-tailed fox has gone down
in history as the biggest fool the fam
lily ever produced"
In 1896, there was 21S, 900 democrats
in Kentucky who held opposite views to
! Watterson. The Sur says but 5000
| democrats voted with him in that
| state. It is beyond question that The
| Courier-Journal has lost most heavily
that it's circulation has dwindled i'm
| mensely.
