In Fact 1t Ere ught an Jnprccedentedly
LarGe Si:n to the Writer.
The star reporter was taking an intel
lCctual fall or two out Of The literary per
son, just to show that individual that all
tn literature in the world wasn't centered
in one human being, when the literary
person became catcchcticl
"Do you know, he said, THE highest
price ever paid for a single short poem!"
That was easy for the reporter.
"Of course do, ~ he said 1T was that
81 900 ole of our American periodicals paid
up to Tennyson for Il couple of dozen lines
or so. "
The literary person simply withered the
reporter by a look.
Il beg your pardon, he said, "but the
highest price ever received for short poem
was by man, an Englishman, too, by the
way, bearing the plebeian name of Smith.
His poem was shorter than Tennyson' S,
! and he got 10 times as much for 1t.
"Ill bet you, interrupted the reporter,
"that no American publisher, however An
glomaniac he may be, was fool enough to
| nut up that amount for poem.
"I'il admit it was an Englishman who
paid the money, said the literary person
| in tone of regret This Mr.. Smith, who
died in 1889, at the age of 50, was broth
or of Horace Smith. and the two Smiths
wrote those very clever things OF bygohe
dav known as The Rejected Addresses

one occasion our Mr.. Smith dined with MT
