James William Defoe, the last Of the

pauper Of the Chelmsford Union, in
receipt Of the modest pittance Of three
shillings a week. The old man, who is
now in his 77th year, feels deeply the
loss of his only son, Daniel. who died
last year at San Francisco, Cal, at the
early age of %. The lad was origi-
nally placed at the Bluecoat School,

THE AUTHOR OF "QUo VADls.
English Writers.

In the Century jeremiah Curtin. the
translator Of "Quo Vadis," has a pa
per entitled can Acquaintance with
Sienkiewicz." Mr.. Curtin says: Sien.
kiewicz expressed himself at some
length on English literature and art. |
give his own words:
"Of English noyelists like Dickens
best. His David Copperfield' seems to
me nearer genuine human nature than
any other English production Of the
century. Dickens derived immense
pleasure from the people whom he de-
scribed; he had true and vivid ap.
probation Of unusual characters. In
literature Shakespeare stands apart. His
knowledge of man seems to me almost
superhuman. am amazed at his in
sight and truthful vision, especially
when compare him with other writ
ers. Scott had power Of narration
that was really phenomenal, but there
Is much in his novels that is not true;
not infrequently he ornamented in his
own way-beautified, as he thought.
His account Of the chivalry and knight
hood Of the middle ages does not cor
respond at all with reality. Still, he
was wonderful writer. Thackeray
was great novelist, but to me he has
always seemed enthralled more or less
by society," mastered by it in degree,
hence injured as an artist. TennysOn
used beautiful language, but he was
artificial; he was the poet, not of hui
mainly, but Of class, and devotion tc
class always enfeebles an author. OF
recent Englishmen, Kipllng stands
alone as writer Of short stories. Du
Maurier was very much Of an artist
by nature. In 'Trilby' his description
Of Partisan artist life is fine; but the
book, though entertaining, IS too fan
tastic; the end especially is unreal be.
yond measure, as Is, Of course, the
hypnotism. Rider Haggard l know to
the extent Of one novel, She which l
read in Eastern Africa. Though very
extensive, English literature is weak
in one kind of mental creation, In
which it is not likely to be strengthen
ed-the fable. In this field the Rus.
slams have surpassed all Europe; theil
Kryloff is tile greatest fabulist Of mod
ern times"

Kissing.

Kissing and applause in theaters be-
gan some time during the seventeenth
century. CAS- the medieval plays In
F1ance." declares one writer, "were or.
ganized by the church, applause was
forbidden, and In 1850, when play by
Fontenelle was produced, kissing was
heard for the first time. The claque is
said to have come into existence III
France as early as the eighteenth cen
fury, when the number Of comedians
increased and actors felt more and
more the need Of applause. In order to
make it certain, the claque was hired,
There was a rebellion against the
claQue almost as soon as the custom
was first introduced, and it's cOndemna
ton has been constant ever since. But
the institution still survives In France"

sier~,ewicz's Method of Work.

Sienkiewicz's method Of making q
book Is as follows: He works out n de-
tailed plan, and writes it down careful
ly. He fixes this in his head and lets
it "seethe and ferment" there, as he
says. When ready to begin work, he d.
vides his time, not into days. but weeks.
During the first week he produces
certain amount, the second week a SIM
liar amount, and SO on, week after
week. He writes without correction,
and never copies, producing just one
manuscript-the one which he sends to
the printer. Each weeks work contin-
ues that of the preceding week. Though
the plan Of the book is elaborated care
fully in advance, this plan Is not fol-
lowed strictly; from the "seething and
fermenting'' In his head changes are
suggested to the author, and he makes
them. He has no secretary, amanuen-
sis, copyist, or assistant.
To write such books as he does with
out copying or correcting, to create
works like the trilogy and "Quo Vadis"
by series of efforts, each one Of which
gives finished part, and each part be-
ing a seamless and flawless continue
ton Of the preceding, till the last, to-
gether with all the others, forms CON-
plete, unbroken whole, Is perhaps the
most amazing tour de. force in literary
experience. Sienkiewicz employs no
man or woman to help him. He makes
all literary researches himself; visits
and studies the places which he needs
to see; and when writing In Switzer-
land, Italy, France. or other countries,
takes with him all the books he re-
quires, and shuts himself in with them
during working hours, which for him
are from eight or nine till lunch at one
o'clock, and then a couple of hours later
on. He never writes after dinner in the
evening, and has so ordered his works
and days" that he needs no assistance.

Practical Young Woman Didn't want
90 I've Aroused at Night.

TO I've ArOuseu NJ NiBn~
Kansas City has at least one young mar
ried woman who takes a very prosaic view
of ghosts and so-called spirit manifestations.
She was forced to spend night alone IN 2
ST. Louis hotel, her husband being detained
elsewhere by business. In the dead oil the
night she was awakened out OF sound sleep
by tremen ious noise in the wardrobe. IL
was such a sudden and unearthly uproar
that the. woman, sensible and practical
though she vas was frightened. The noise
ceased, then returned. The woman jumped
up, lighted The gas, and made Thorough
search both % the wardrobe and the room:
There was nothing so far as the evidence OF
the senses went which could account Tor the
racket. The woman put out the light and
went back to bed. The noise was not re-
peated.
Six months afterward, however, the
woman was in San Francisco, and for the
first time in her life, and solely out OF Gu
riosity, she attended Spiritualistic meet
ing. Almost Immediately the medium, a
perfect stranger, turned TO her and said.
"The spirit of your mother is present, mad
am, and she says that six months ago (nam-
ing the precise date) she tried to communi-
cate with you by means OF the wardrobe in
the Blank hotel, st. Louis"
The woman's practical good sense did not
desert her.
well, you just tell my mother" she said.
that the next time she wants TO communi-
cate with me not TO make such anawful rack.
