HIS GREAT STAND BY.
One Precious Volume Treasured by tn
Great Iiterary Man.

One Precious Volume Treasured by the
Great Literary Man.
Twas but a little torn volume, but the
great literary man priced it more than
words can tell.
He had come across it many days agone
at a secondhand bookstall and when he
saw the price mark, cents, above the box
where it lay with many others in scattered
confusion his eye lit up with deep and
holy joy. Selling it in his grasp, he hur-
ried with it into the store, deposited a
nickel upon the counter and, with out
waiting for the shopman to wrap it up, he
placed it in an inside pocket and walked
home, his head high in the air.
What dreams, what anticipations, what
Civilizations, had not that little tome called
up in his fevered brain that dayl
Then he was poor student, waiting for
a chance to please the public with his
writings. His success had been small, if
any, and sometimes he was half inclined
to give up the struggle. Indeed, such were
his straits that more than once he allowed
his eyes to roam over the 'Help Wanted,
Males" column in the voluminous Sunday
papers. But then Immediately there would
come renewed determination and fresh re-
solve, and he would conquer the tempta-
ton to apply for work.
Work. No, thousand times mol He
would be a literary man in spite of every
thingl
Then it happened that he came across
this little book that had proved of such in
calculable value to him in his vocation,
for he was now one of the literary giants
of the day-nay, of the age-and could
command really royal royalties.
Yes, he was rich, indeed, beyond the
dreams of avarice.
For the piles of cash that he had accu-
mulated had grown from his wonderfully
complicated Scotch dialect stories, and the
source of his inspiration was no other than
the old secondhand, 5 cent copy of BE
side the Bonnie Brier Bush, " from which
he was won't to select his Scotch words at
haphazard.-Vim.

GA Dead Hero Says There'n Be Hot
Time in the Old Town.
CIV York. Aug. 3-Many soldiers

.;ew York, Aug. 3.-Many soldiers
have bean wounded in the war with
Spain, some have died, but only one;
so far as known, has had funeral
service held over him and lived to hear
of it. Sergt. George E. Blackmer,
Company l. Second Massachusetts vol
three times in the battle of San Juan
hill Although the first two injuries
were painful they did not incapacltate
BIackmer, and he kept right on fight
ing The third time he was hit, how
ever, the bullet went through his hat
and gouged a piece of flesh out of the
left side of his head.
Three times and out" said Blackmer,
as he fell to the ground. He was not
able to move for some time although
the Spaniards' bullets were throwing
UP the dust jets all around him Ma
1or WhippIe of the Second Massachu-
sets saw the sergeants plight ana as
sisted him out of danger.
Blackmer managed to crawl to the
rear and was not found for some time
Meantime friends who had seen him
fan reported him killed, and his name
was dispatched and published as among
the dead. His father, Eldridge J.
BIackmer, of Riverside, Mass, heard OF
his death and resolved that if he could
not have the melancholy satisfaction
of burying his son he could at least
pay a tribute of respect to his memory
bv holding a funeral service at his
home. This service was held and was
attended by Blackmer's family, includ-
ing his parents, his nine brothers and
sisters. and several friends. Conspic-
uous among the floral tributes were
many beautiful shields and flower
pieces bearing such sentences as '"TO
our fallen hero" For the brave dead
etc.
BIackmer, however, was far from be-
ing dead. He was picked up by the
hospital corps and sent to New York
on the transport OIivette. Senator
Hoar heard of his presence on the ship
and Immediately sent the welcome
news to his parents The funeral ser
vices had been already held, however
and B1ackmer says the floral gifts can
still be used appropriately for his
welcome home" by the change of
word or two. He leaves Governors Is
land today enroute for Riverside. and
he says 'there'n be a hot time in the
old town tonight"

one can deny that there is ample oppor-
tunity for sensational effects. An excep-
tiOnally strong cast, including Cora Tan
ner, Isabel Evesson, William Harcourt,
Ralph Delmore and Eleanor Meron, has
been engaged
Devils Island" may and probably will
prove a success, and it is with no desire to
disparage its possible merits that attention
is called to the ludicrous effort of the pro-
prietor some time ago to warn every one
off from the main episodes used in the de-
velOpment of the play. These are historic
facts, and facts are not cOpyrightable, as
the explOiter of the play will doubtless
find, inasmuch as I hear that there are
also three more dramas based upon the
Dreyfus case to be put upon the road this
season.
The recent triumph of our arms in the
West Indies has set the theatrical mana
gers, or at least that portion Of them pos
sessed of no money, to figuring how good
circuit can be worked up in Cuba and
Porto Rico. Some of these people are re-
1ating, with the evident expectation of
having their statements believed, that
they have already booked tours in those
two islands for next season. Aside from
the fact that this would be trifle prema-
ture these paper spectators have probably
forgotten that there are not enough Eng
lish speaking people altogether in the two
islands to pay travelling expenses for a
show Of any pretensions The vaudeville
people, however, seem to be a trif1e more
sensible They will send performers down
there next winter and will probably make
a great deal of money, as the variety artist
has the advantage over his legitimate
brother in not depending for success so
much upon what he says as upon what he
does. There is at least one theatrical pro-
jeetOr of large means who is thinking of
establishing a chain Of vaudeville theaters
in Cuba and Porto Rico this fall, provided
of course these two islands shall either
have come into our possession or under
our control by that time.
