ONLY FOUR MINOR TAILS.

OuAss R1nssll lowell CTuUns AomsN
Dante, Cervantes and Goethe.
There are certain books which 1t Is
necessary to read, but they are very
few. Looking at the matter from an
aesthetic point Of view merely, l
should say that thus far only one
man had been able to use types 30
universal and to draw figures 30 cos
mopolitan that they are equally true
in all languages and equally accept
able b the whole Indo- European
branch, at least, Of the human fami-
ly. That man b Homer, and there
needs, it seems to me, no further
proof of his individual existence than
this very fact Of the solitary unap
proaohableness Of the 'niad" and the
'Odyssey." The more wonderful
they are, the more likely to be the
work Of one person. Nowhere is the
purely natural man presented to us
30 nobly and sincerely as In these
poems.
Not far below these I should place
the "Divina Commedia" Of Dante, in
which the history Of the spiritual
man Is sketched with equal COM
mand Of material and grandeur OF
outline. don Quixote" stands upon
the same level and receives the same
universal appreciation. Here we
havo the spiritual and the natural
man set before us In humorous con-
trast. In the knight and his squire
Cervantes has typified the two op-
posing poles Of our dual nature-the
Imagination and the understanding
a. they appear in contradiction.
This Is the only comprehensive satire
ever written, for 1t Is utterly indie.
pendent Of time, place and manners.
Faust" gives us the natural his
tory Of the human intellect, Mephis-
topheles being merely the projected
impessonaaon Of that skepticism
which is the invariable result Of q
purely intellectual culture. These
tour books are the only ones In
which universal facts Of human ma
ture and experience are loea1iy rep
resented. They can therefore never
be displaced.
thaTenot mentioned Shakespeare,
because his works come under dit.
ferent category. Though they mark
the very highest level Of human gen.
ius, they yet represent no special
epoch In the history Of the individual
mind. The man Of Shakespeare is
always the man of actual life, as he
is acted upon by the worlds Of sense
and Of spirit under certain definite
conditions. We all Of us may be In
the position Of Macbeth or Othello
or Hamlet, and we appreciate their
sayings and deeds potentially, 90 to
speak, rather than actually, through
the sympathy Of our common nature
and not of our experience.-James
Russell Lowell's Posthumous Essay
in the Century Magazine.

Very Suspicious.

Monday night between IL and
II O'Clock, while Mrs. Tanner. who
resides in the southwest portion of
the city, was sitting up awaiting
Mr.. Tanners return from the
store, a man riding a white horse
came along close to Mr.. d. Red
fields place and acted in a very
strange manner. He rode to the
side gate, then to the horse lot.
After scrutinizing the place for
about a half hour he rode up the
alley around the block, then left
rapidly in a westerly direction.
Mr.. Redfeld is of the opinion that
the man had been misinformed as to
the location of a horse, for he firm
ly believes the night prowler was a
horse thief. But, as he rejoices in
the possession of an onery scrub
pony, he is satisfied a thief would
not want HIM. He had a good
horse stolen last April. This may
be the time of the moon to keep
your stable door locked.
