Edwin Markham's Poem, The Muse
of brotherhood,

or brotherhood.
Mr.. Markham's most recent poem, The
Muse of Brotherhood, is one Of the few
really great poems that the closing years
of the century have produced. In it
Mr.. Markham voices lofty optimism
that is at once more impressive and more
convincing than the notes Of hopeless
ness and despair that characterize The
Man with the Hoe. At the same time
he nobly sets forth the principles of that
universal brotherhood which says:
"My love is higher than heavens where
Taurus wheels,
My love is deeper than the pillared
skies:
High. as that peak in Heaven where
Milton kneels,
Deep as that grave in He'll where
Caesar lies"
The Muse of Brotherhood will appear
exclusively in The Saturday Evening
Post, of Philadelphia, in its issue of
October 2t.

Since our report of the Wheeler, alias,
Vim, capture we have received the
Lincoln, Ill.,, papers giving accounts Of
thetaffair that are, to use mild term,
very inaccurate. Chief of Police Harper
has probably never figured in an affair of
any consequence before, or he would not
let the arrest Of Wheeler run him dis
tracted. We want say to the Lincoln
papers that Wheeler was not captured
by Deputy Sheriff Eldracher in Marble
Hill, but in Lutesville, that, although he
resisted arrest, no one was particularly
scared Of him, and that he was landed in
jail with only a pair Of "oome-alongsr
on his wrists, and they wore taken of
whom he entered the cage; that when
Harper entered the jail there were no
irons on his wrists or ankles, and tho
fighting and choking into submission
are purely imaginary. We believe Mr..
