Arnold and Whitman.

The marvellous memory, or rather power
OF absorption, as it might be called of Sir
Edwin Arnold has excited frequent COM
ment. Major j. B. Pond related an in
stance of it in story which he told at the
Walt Whitman fellowship dinner in this
city. Speaking of visit which he made
with Sir. Edwin Arnold to Walt Whitman
shortly before Whitman's death, Major
Pond said: "We had very pleasant chat,
and as we rose to go Walt Whitman pre-
sented to Sir Edwin and to me volume
of his Leaves of Grass that had had just
been republished. / opened the volume,
which you know Is of several hundred
pages and began reading aloud random
line. Sir Edwin stopped me. Let me go
on from there, said he and he took up
the line and without IA break recitod the
whole poem. TRY me anywhere, said Sir
Edwin. / did so, and not once, no matter
how obscure the poem, did he fail to give
every line of it correctly, / wonderingly
following him with the book before me.
THAT is the way know your poems,' said
Sir Edwin to Walt Whitman when he had
finished the test. New York Tribune

"Isioated Armaments.,

1t Is industrial ruin. Tho mad rivalry
In 'bloated ornaments" is running all the
continental powers, and even our insular
position does not spare us the necessity of
an enormous increase in our naval esti-
mates. But of all the states which suffer
from the huge waste caused by increased
ornaments on sea and land Germany, to
whose aggressive policy it is all due, suf
fers most. In 1865, the year before the
Prussian war against Austria, the total
expenditure on land and sea forces of what
Is now the German empire was 80, 900, 900.
In 1879 it was 921, 800, 900, and it has
been increasing by leads and bounds ever
since. In 1865 the French expenditure
was 917, 800, 600; in 1879, 927 200, 900. In
1865 Great Britain spent &27, 000, 900; in

in 1865 was a2l, 900, 600; in 1879, $780,
100000. This increase has been going on
in various proportions ever since in all the
states of Europe, but in Germany most of
all. And Germany is the country which
can least afford it. Compared with France
and Russia, 1t is a very poor country, and
poverty and the CONSUMPTION combined are
driving the manhood of Germany from the
fatherland every year by myriads. In one
year alone 1900 ablebodied Germans
emigrated to America. -Nineteenth Gen.

whittier In Familiar Relations.

The Arena publishes some personal rec
elections of American poets and among
them two amusing anecdotes connected
with Whittier. A little girl who was in
the house with him and of whom he was
very fond asked him to commemorate in
verse the death of her favorite kitten
Bathsheba by name Without moments
hesitation the poet recited solemnly:
Bathsheba, to whom none ever said scat
No worthier cat
Ever sat on q mat
Or caught n rat.
Requiescatl
The same little girl had a pony who
broke his leg, and again the poet was call
ed upon to comfort the child with some
poetic sentiment.
Il have written some lines myself" she
said, "but can't think how to finish the
verse"
"What did you writer asked Mr.. Whit
tier.
"My pony kicked to the right he kicked to the
left:
The stable post he struck it..
He broke his leg short off,
And then added Mr.. Whittier:
"And then he kicked tho bucket"
During the war Quaker friend, who
was a shipbuilder asked Mr.. Whittier's
advice as to building warships. At first
Mr.. Whittier did not commit himself, but
as the shipbuilder was leaving he remark
ed:

Psychological Experiments by Experts

Psychological Experiments by Experts
That Are of Interest to Readers.
Mr.. Franz, university fellow in psychol-
ogy at Columbia, and DR.. Harold Griffing
made a number of experiments in the psy-
Geological laboratory on the legibility of
different kinds of type. Many experiments
have heretofore been made showing that
one particular kind of type was more legi-
BILE than another, but Mr.. Franz and DIR.
Griffing are the first to measure with sci
entific accuracy just how much more legi-
BILE one kind Of type is than another. More
than that, they are investigating in the
same way the conditions most favorable
for reading. This includes not only the
type, its size and quality, but the paper,
its color and quality, and the illumination.
Tests have been made of the speed with
which given amount OF printed matter
could be read and the amount that could
be read in given time. The types used
were point, the ordinary newspaper type,
and II point, the ordinary magazine type.
1t was found that the IL point could be
read about 30 per cent faster than the 6
point and about 20 per cent more could be
read In a given time Words and phrases

1t was found that 8 point loaded could

same as Il point not spaced.
Experiments were made with colored

paper reflects the light and thus fatigues
the eye.
The tests showed that with the same
amount of illumination there was no diff
ference between daylight and artificial
light. We rarely get, however, the same
amount of illumination from artificial
light as from daylight, since the intensity
of ordinary daylight is about 200 candle

COLORADO'S WONDER.
The State Possesses the Most Tremendous
Canyon In the World.

1t is abruptly countersunk in the forest
plateau, says John Muir in The Atlantic,
so that you see nothing of ii until you are
suddenly stopped on its brink with its i'm
measurable wealth of divinely colored and
sculptuIed buildings before you and be-
meath you. No matter how far you may
have wandered hitherto or how many IA
nous gorges and valleys you have seen, this
one, the Grand canyon of the Colorado,
will seem as novel to you, as unearthly in
the color and grandeur and quantity of
its architecture, as If you had found it aft
er death on some other star; SO incompar-
ably lovely and grand and supreme is it
above all the other delightful canyons in
our fire nodded, earthquake shaken, rain
washed, wave washed, river and glacier
sculpctred world. 1t is about q, 600 feet
deep where you first see it, and from rim
TO rim 10 To 10 miles wide. And instead
of being dependent for interest on water
falls, depth, wall sculpture and beauty or
parklike floor, like most other great can
yons, no waterfalls are in sight and no
appreciable floor space.
The big river has just room enough to
flow and roar obscurely, here and there
cropping its way as best it can like weary,
murmuring, overladen traveller trying to
escape from the tremendous bewildering
labyrinthic abyss, while it's roar serves
only to mellow and deepen the silence.
Instead of being filled only with air the
vast space between the walls Is crowded
with natures grandest buildings-a sub
lime city of them painted in every color of
the rainbow and adorned with richly fret
ted cornice and battlement spire and tow
er in endless variety of style and architec-
ture. Every architectural invention of
man has been anticipated and far more in
this grandest of Gods terrestrial cities.
