DR. RICHARD BURToNs LECTURE

On American vs. British English.
 Dr. Richard Burton delivered another of his course of lectures upon English as it is written and spoken at Warner hall last night. The subject of the Iec- ture was American vs. British Eng fish" The hall was well filled and the lecture was received with marked ap- preciation by the audience. The more that is heard of Dr. Burton the greater is the wonder that he was ever all lowed to leave Connecticut to accept 8 position as professor of English Dur ing his talk he compared some of the terms and idioms of the Britishers and Americans and commented upon the correctness of each. He deprecated the selection of a British phrase just because it was British, but maintained that if our judgment upheld the cor rectness of it we should by all means use it. In many terms our usage is the more correct, but this is not al- ways so. The usage of British phrase in England may be defended in some cases on the ground that we should not be understood if we should use our own expressions.
 The last lecture will be upon Eng fish in Our Homes and Families..''

RILEY IS NOT A BICYcLIsT.

'I shall never forget" said Charles
 Reynolds at the Planters yesterday
 apropos of the article concerning James
 Whitcomb Riley's homestead, "an in-
 cident in the life of the Hoosier poet.
 It was last summer, during the time
 Mir Riley was a guest of mine. I live
 in Indianapolis, and am a member of
 the Country club, which has it's club
 house about 20 miles form town
 Among the members it has become
 quite the thing to ride out there every
 Sunday morning for breastfast, and
 one afternoon I suggested to the poet
 that it would be a pleasant spin to
 wheel out to the place next day start
 ing before breakfast. He agreed, and
 daybreak of the next day saw us on
 our way, speeding along the towpath
 of the canal toward the Country club
 house.
 The journey was made without in
 cident, although I noticed that the poet showed signs of fatigue during the last few miles. But he seemed refreshed after breakfast and a cigar, and I thought nothing of it, as I myself was not a crack rider.
 hAIlGl q IltIlG we SldELbQ Ddck, there being several besides ourselves in the party. But after the first milepost had been passed I noticed that Riley was wobbling on his wheel in a way that denoted weakness. He did not say any thing, however and neither did T. so we plugged along in silence for another mile, when he ventured to remark that it was beautiful country.
 Yes said I.
 Don't you think we should stop awhile and gaze with more reflection and meditation on the landscape? he asked
 Then realized how tired he was, and we stopped He was so nearly gone that he almost fell from his wheel when I consented to dismount, and he sat himself down by the roadside with a sigh of relief.
 Half an hour later I suggested that we go on, but he said the scenery was too beautiful to leave, and, although I agreed to remain but five minutes l saw he was too far gone to proceed. Finally while we were waiting, a countryman, with load of hay on his
 big rick, came along. Riley, hailed him,
 and wanted to know what he would take to carry him to town. The farmer thought a minute and said $10.'
 T knew he was joking, for $5 in that part of the country Is big enough to hide the sun, but Riley was only too | glad to accept the offer So the farmer and I loaded him onto the load of hay and the last saw of the poet was his smiling face peering at me from be- hind his glasses, and seated on top of a bulging rick of hay, holding his wheel | in one hand, while in the other he way l ed his dusty cap. Since then whenever | he sees me he refers to that morning | ride, and, with him at least, shall al- | ways have the reputation of a great | rider."-St. Louis Republic.
