New York Tribune: Another excellent
stroke is that which has just been
achieved by the Stevenson Memorial
Committee. The members of this BODY
have doubtless had pressure brought TO
bear upon them with a view to thelr
employing an English or Scottish sculp-
tor for the making of a memorial 10
the novelist in ST. Giles Church, Edln-
burgh, but the Stevensonians have
asked an American, Augustus st. Gau-
dens. to do the work. This is admira-
BILE news. Mr. st. Gaudens has al
ready modelled one portrait of Steven
son, in a medallion which is one Of his
most interesting performances. The
memorial under his hands ought to be
in the last degree satisfactory, and we
feel grateful to the committee in ad-
vance. We wish we could feel grateful
to Stevenson's literary executors, but
this. apparently, is never to be. ''The
London Outlook which is playing the
part Of Stevenson's organ" with great
devotion, is not only whelmed in delight
over the supplementary volume in the
Edinburgh edition Of Stevenson-a vol
ume of waits and strayS which nobody
save a Grass Stevensonian wants to see
but prints with JUNCTION some hitherto
unpublished reflections and remarks on
human life, utterly unimportant, which
might better have been left in oblivion.
Poor Stevenson He was always fear
full that the wolf would come bowling
around his door. How it would have
rejoiced him had he known that every
scrap of his writing would some day be
welcomed in the literary market! But
he died before the franZy had reached
its hight and perhaps he was fortu-
nate to have escaped the knowledge
that his friends were making him rid
iculous. No doubt the lists he wrote
every week for his washerwoman would
bring a high price to-day, but it is good
to know that he never suspected any
such exploitation of his fame.
Sir Henry Irving made some partic-
ularly amiable remarks about news

panorama of the raw material of art
and literature. Well, there are some
complaints, gentlemen, that the raw
material is more generally interesting
than the artistic product. The news
paper is a dangerous competitor OF
books, and those of us who write plays
and produce them may wish that the
circulation of a great daily journal

Winston Churchill the author of that
slight but amusing novel, THE Celeb
rity,' has written another book which
he calls Richard Carvel." 1t is a
novel of the colonial period in this
country.
What promises to be, under the title
of Medical Works of the Fourteenth
Century, particularly quaint volume,
is in course of preparation by Professor
George Henslow, the botanist. This
book will contain transcripts from four
manuscripts contemporary with the
works of Wicliff and Chaucer, three of
which are in the British Museum, the
other being in his own possession.
These give illustrations Of the crude
and quaint conceptions of the value Of
plants as drugs prevailing in the Middle
Ages, and the recipes are remarkable
for t1e general absence of any mention
of the nauseous substances recon-
mended by some apothecaries of later
centuries Professor Skeat has pro-
vided an introduction and notes to the
volume.
The English translation of the Ma
habharata made by Pandit Kissari Mo-
han Ganguli, the Sanskrit translator
and scholar, occupied that learned man
thirteen years, and he has had no re-
ward for his labors, and is now old. A
petition asking the British Government
for d pension for him has been signed
by many of the most distinguished men
in the kingdom.

keenness Somehow one began with an
idea that he would be a rather cock
sure and self-confident person. He is,
of course, quite young = far younger
than he looks. 1t was those long, early
years of hard, unrecognized newspaper
work in India that knocked the youth
out of him. He is ridiculously young
to be so famous and to have earned his
fame by SO much entirely solid work,
political, or rather national, as we'll as
literary. Nevertheless, as one enthusi-

Sir Edward Burne-Jones, Bart, the
celebrated British painter who recently
passed away, was So years old, and a
shining light in his profession in more
ways than one. He was one of the
three painter baronets'' of the period.
Sir Edward Burne-Jones has been es-
sentially popular painter. He created
cult and gained a following Of his
own. It was said of him that he pleas
ed the ordinary connoisseur by the
beauty of his line and by the richness
of his color
He was a man of remarka BILE individ-
uality, and this led him to carve out
for himself path of his own. He Gre
ated his own style and school. Sir Ed
ward was wonderfully Industrious, and
worked patiently, cheerfully and stead
lily at his art for more than thirty
years. For this reason, perhaps, none
of his contemporaries grudged him the
honors bestowed. He left an ample for
tune as we'll as title, though he was
known to be free from any overwhelm-
ing desire to amass wealth. He was
happily married, and leaves a family
to regret him.
Sir Edward was born at birmingham
in the summer of 1888 He was at the
age of IL sent by his parents to tho
King Edwards Grammar School of
that town, and was intended for the
church. In 1852 he gained an exhibit
tion at Exeter College, Oxford.
Through the influence of William
Morris and Dante Gabriel Rossetti he
left the university without taking his
degree. Then he established himself at
II Red Lion square, with Rossetti as
his master and William Morris as his
friend and fellow lodger.
