my presence that made you think it."

Gordon, and don't mind the lack Of a
chaperon, get stool for yourself too. "
What was more, she offered me half Of
the lap robe when was seated beside
her.
I think she was pleased by my Offer
to go away, for she talked very pleas
antly and far more intimately than she
had ever done before, telling 1ne facts
about her family her Chicago life her
travels and even her thoughts. From
this learned that her elder brother
was al Oxford graduate, and that Lord
Rallies and his brother were classmates,
who were visiting him for the first time
since he had graduated She asked me
some questions about my work, which
led me to tell her pretty much every
thing about myself that I thought could
be Of tho least interest, and it was %
very pleasant surprise to me to find that
she knew one of the old team and had
even heard Of me from him.
"Why," she exclaimed, "how absurd
Of me not to have thought OF it before!
But, you see, Mr.. Colston always speaks
Of you by your first name. You ought
to hear how he praises you. )"

Miss Cullen" said, II hadn't seen

I've always noticed that woman would
rather have man notice aud praise her
frock than her beauty, and Miss Cullen
was apparently no exception, for I could
see the remark pleased her

had devoted the last seven years of his
life to grades and fuel and rebates mud

At least it made Miss Cullen's mouth

MISS Cullen took 1t better than
hoped for and was declining the offel
as kindly as my intention had been il
making it when, much to my astonish
ment, her father said:
"By all means, Madge. That relieves
us Of the discomfort of being the last

Miss Cullen looked at her father fol

had heard. Lord Rallies scowled and
opened his mouth to say something, but
checked himself and only flung his dis.
card down as if he hated the cards.

ed something, and her father answered
her. Lord Rallies must have heard, for
he muttered something which made
Miss Cullen color up but much good it
did him, for she turned to me and said,
"Since my father doesn't disapprove, I
will gladly accept your hospitality, Mr.:
Gordon" And, after glance at Lord
Rallies that had challenging "I'll do
as please" in it, she went to got her
hat and coat.
The whole incident had not taken ten
seconds, yet it puzzled me beyond meas
ure, even while my heart beat with an
. unreasonable hope, for my better sense
told me that it simply meant that Lord
Rallies disapproved, and Miss Cullen,
like any girl Of spirit, was giving him
notice that he was not yet privileged to
control her actions. Whatever tho scene
meant, his lordship did not like it, for
he swore at his luck the moment Miss
Cullen had left the room
When Miss Cullen returned, we went
back to tho rear platform Of 81. I let
down the traps closed the gates, got a
carnpstool for her to sit Oh, with cush-
ion to lean back on and footstool, and
fixed her as comfortably as I could, even
getting travelling rug to cover her lap,
for the plateau air was chilly. Then I
hesitated a moment, for I had the feel
ing that she had not thoroughly approx
ed Of the thing and therefore she might
not like to have me stay. Yet she was
SO charming in the moonlight, and the
little balcony the platform made was
such tempting spot to linger OH, while
she was there, that it wasn't easy to go.
Finally I asked:
"You are quite comfortable, Miss
Cullen?"
"Sinfully 30, she laughed.
"Then perhaps you would like to be
left to enjoy the moonlight and your
meditations by YOURSELF" I questioned.
I knew J ought to have said more, but
simply couldn't when she looked SO en-
ticing.
"Do you want to go?' she asked.
"No," I CIRCULATED, SO forcibly that
she gave little startled jump in her
chair "That isl mean" I suffered,
embarrassed by my own vehemence, II
rather thought you might not want me
to stay"
"What made you think that?" she de-
manded.

explanations. After moments seeking

Now let us glance at some Of Tennyson's opin-
ions concerning other poets and men Of letters.
opinions which are scattered through these two
capacious volumes. There is no doubt that
Tennyson's power of expression was well nigh
oS striking in conversation rs in artistic com
position. He always, and without effort. used
the most delicious cpithets; yet, while they
light up his sentences and rlyet attention. they
are mover pedantic. Mr.. Frederick Locker
Lampson. who went to Paris with Tennyson in
1868, has contributed to this biography some
"reminiscences of the poets talk. At one time 1t
turned on Byron and Wordsworth. OF course"
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1897-11-14

The volume of ballads and poems dedi-
Gated by Tennyson to his grandson, "Goldcn.
Haired Ally" was published in the poets sev.
enty-1rst year. that Is to say. in 1880. He left
many manuscript notes concerning them. We
learn, for instance, that THE First Quarrel"
was founded on an Isle of Wight story. DR..
Babbs was tho doctor. The poor woman quar-.
relied with her husband. Ho started, the night
OF the quarrel. for Jersey. The boat, in which he
was. struck q reef and went down. "Rizpah is
founded on an incident which Tennyson saw re-
lated in some penny magazine under the caption
OF "Old Brighton" 1t seems that two men,
Rookie and Howell. were convicted of robbing
the mail in n village near Brighton, and were
gibbcted on the spot whore the crime was COM
mitted. There was an affecting story connected
with the body of Rookie. When the elements
had caused the clothes and flesh to decay, his
aged mother. night after night. in all weathers.
and the more tempestuous the weather the
more frequent tho visits. made a sacred pilgrim
age to the lonely spot on the Downs, and it was
noticed that. on her return, she always brought
something away with her In her apron. Upon
being watched 1t was discovered that the bones
Of the hanging man were the objects OF her
search, and, as tho wind and rain scattered
them on the ground, she conveyed them to her
home. There she kept them, and, when the glib
bet was stripped or Its horriu burden, IN tho
dead silence OF the night she inferred them In
the Enclosure OF Old Shoreham Churchyard. Such
was the story Of the Brighton Rizpah. Il,
"The Northern Cobbler." Tennyson said, was
founded on a fact that he had heard in early
youth. A man set up a bottle Of gin in his win.

tho drink. The germ of tho poem Of 1.-THE Re

though they had fifty.three ships OF war and
$4,000 men. "The Sisters was partly founded
on an incident in real life known to the poet.
1t was the story OF a girl who consented to DO
bridesmaid TO her sister. although she secretly
loved tho bridegroom. The night after the we'd

home. They searched for her high and low, and

As is always the case with great writers, rO-
scmblanccs to something Tennyson had written
were often found In books which he had never
read, and in languages which he did not know,
and he complained, with reason. that there wero
critics who Imagined that the same idea could
never occur Independently to two men looking
on the same aspects OF nature. Mr.. Lecky once
heard Browning say when this subject was
mcntioned: "Tennyson suspected of plagiar-
isnii Why, you might AS well suspect tho
ltothsch!lds OF picking pockets" Here one may
periincntly, recall Lowells dictum that those
are entitled to borrow who arc able to lend.
and tho splendid defiance embodied in Dryden's
comment on Ben Jonson's tragedies: Heinvad
piracy in others was only victory in him" or
course, Tennyson had the skill. which was oven
more cOnspicnously ovlnced by Milton-the skill
OF extracting knowledge and thought from all
about him. For example, among his friends
was Mr.. q. +. Watts. and. though Tennyson
had but little technical knowledge OF art, he
fully folt the charm OF that great imaginative
painter. He once asked Mr.. Watts 10 describe
