A POLISH NOVELIST.
sIENMEwIcz, WHO WROTE "oUo VA
DIS" A THOROUGH COSMOPOLITAN.

HIS Works Published In Many Languages,
His Pen Has Made Him Famous on Two
COntinents-FIoId to Found New Brook
Farm In California.
"Author of Quo Vadss?' Oh, YES,
he's Polish writer, you know Just
come out His name? Well, it's-er-
um-um-guess I've forgotten it, after
all, but it's something with a 'witz' to
it,"
Thus does many a dabbler in litera-
ture bolster up a pretense of being well
read. As matter of fact, Henryk Sien-
kiewicz has not Just come out" He
has been out for a number of years, al
though the distinction of having his
novels pirated and printed in mutilated
form by Sunday newspapers is some
what recent "Quo Vadis, - his latest
work, a historical romance with the
scene laid in the time of Nero and the
days of the early Christian church, is
the story which every one is just now
asking every one else if he has read. It
is by no means the first of Sienkiewicz' 5
novels to be translated and printed in
English, neither is it his greatest or his
best work
Although Sienkiewicz spends most of
his time in Warsaw, which seems a
long distance from US, he is really not
so much of a stranger to US as his name
and home might imply. On the con-
trary, he has lived and worked in the
United States and can write in English
when he wishes to as well as in Polish,
Russian or any one of half a dozen 9TH
er languages
Sienkiewicz is in fact thorough COS
mopolitan, and the fame of his pen is
world wide
He was born in IS45 in Lithuania, Po-
land, and has just turned his half CEN
fury. He comes of an old and noble
family, and all his early tastes were
patrician- AS a youth he was educated
at the University of Warsaw, and he
was a student there during the dark and
troublous days Of 1868, when the car
was busy crushing the Polish nation.
When he was graduated at %, he found
himself without a country, many of his
friends and relatives banished and him
self left without the prospect of such a
career as his education and tastes made
him wish for. So he became a wanderer.
For number of years he spent his time
visiting many strange corners of his
native land, mingling with patrician or
peasant and broadening and enriching
his intellect.
During this period he began to use his
pen, and in 1879 published volume Of
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1898-01-05

sketches which attracted no great atten-
ton but gave premise of something bet
ter to follow. Later he appeared at st.
Petersburg as the editor of a newspaper,
but the limitations of such position
seem to have led him to abandon it after
a short trial Next he was heard of in
Paris, and there he fell in with little
company of oongenial spirits, most of
them exiled Polish mobiles, artists and
musicians. Among them they evolved
utopian scheme for establishing q colony
something on the order of the famous
Brook farm venture. a settlement was
made near Los Angeles, which they call
ed Ammo Luni. Among its promoters be-
sides Sienkiewicz were Count Chalpon-
ski and his famous wife, Helena Mod
jeska-
The colony was failure, but it re-
suited in making famous at least two of
the colonists. Modjeska, having sunk
her slim fortune in the scheme, was
compelled to turn to the stage for a liv-
ing and began that most successful Ca
reer which has made her name a house
hold word throughout the United States
Sienkiewicz returned to Poland, and
there published a series Of American
sketches which brought him to the at
sention of the European reading public.
He became editor Of a high class jour
nal in Warsaw. and in 1880 began his
life work, the historical trilogy, which
has been printed in at least four Ian
guages and has made his name famous
on two continents The volumes were
first printed in his Polish journal, but
later appeared in Vienna and Berlin.
The first volume was entitled with
Fire and Sword and was followed by
1.-The DeIuge" and Pan Michael, . the
whole constituting a historical novel
covering the Cossack war under John
Kazimir, the war with Sweden and the
Turkish invasion of the west
The peculiar fascination and strength
of these works undoubtedly lie IN the
wide and varied range Of the authors
imagination, his Slavic impetuosity of
style and his wonderful ability to think
and talk in the terms of the periods Of
which he writes These volumes We're
translated and published in English
about seven years ago and were favor
ably received in this country. Sienkie-
Eicz Is a widoWer. He makes his home
n Warsaw, but spends his summers in
travelling His name Is pronounced as
it were spelled Sy-an- ke-vitch, with
he second and last syllables accented.

Pouring a little liquid over them will

When a girl is chased by a man who is

It is always puzzle TO woman how
man can do so much with his hands while
he has cigar between his fingers
The women are probably going to wear

The MAN OF THE HOUR.

When water taps decline to flow
And hands are nipped and numb,
When kitchen boilers burst and blow
Our cooks to kingdom come
When IN our rooms are standing pools
Or rivers white with spate,
The plumber, with his bag of tools,
Is master Of our fate
He comes at ten, with double knock
And thinks the matter DER.
He goes TO dine at twelve clock
And comes again at four
He shakes his head with knowing wag
And says he's found the leak,
Then, walking of with shouldered bag,
Returns another week
o plumber, calm and cool and sage,
How coge2tly you show
An OveTdriven, fevered age
The art of going slow
Our eight hour champions to the rear
Must stink in shame away
Since you, more forward pioneer,
Embrace two hours day.
