Tie wonderf Memory of the Penn
syIvania Author.

The Wonderful Memory of the Penn
syIvania Author.
Let me recall a noted son of Pennsylva'
mia, Bayard Taylor, who has taken an
honored place among the authors and
poets of the past generation. His memory
was as remarkable as was his habit from
childhood of storing it with those things
in literature which he most enjoyed.
"Reading," we are told, chad charms for
him from his earliest years, his mother
having taught him to read by the time he
was years old. He showed great apti-
tudc also for committing poetry to mem
ory. In the evening, after he had gone to
bed, his mother would hear him repeating
poem after poem to his brother, who slept
in the same room with him." The eager
ness with which the boy read is measured
by the hold which his memory kept on
those early readings. Years afterward,
when on his travels, poems that he had
learned or books from the library that he
had read came back to him as he visited
in person many places which he had
known in imagination.
Poetry" he writes, chad great infu-
ence over me from childhood, and today
the poems live in memory which learned
ct the age Of or 8 years and which drove
me to desperate attempts at imitation.
have been surprised to find myself repeat
ing songs, Without-the failure of line or
word, which I learned from Mexican
when schoolboy and had not thought Of
for 30 years. The unused drawer of my
mind had somehow been unlocked or
broken open while slept"
Mr.. Boyesen says Of him: "He could
quote by the hour English, German, Ital-
ian and oven Swedish poetry, and appar.
emily have inexhaustible treasures in re-
serve. A single reading sometimes suf-.
feed to fix poem indelibly in his mem
DRY. never happened to allude to any
passage In the first part of Faust, of
which he made a translation, that he
could not recite it at a moments notice
verify believe that he could repeat this
poem from beginning to end. ii. P. Nc

The Wrecked pluton Located.

Santiago dc Cuba. April 22.-The
wreck of the Spanish torpedo boat de-
stroyer Pluton, which was sunk in the
great battle that resulted In the de-
struction of Admiral Cervera's fleet,
has been discovered about three miles
west Of Moro Castle in eight fathoms
Of water. It was found by divers from
the Yankton, who made thorough In
spection. The vessel is badly stove
and literally riddled with six-pound
shot. Evidently the Gloucester did her
work well that day, for the Pluton is
utterly ruined, and no attempt will be
made to raise her.

A New Jersey postof1ice Looted

A New Jersey POstofce Looted.
Somerville, N. j., April 22.-Three
postofice burglars made a good haul
in Bernardsville, Somerset county,
early In the morning. After forcing
an entrance to the postoffice they drill
ed hole in the safe and blew the door
of with dynamite. Postmaster Reuben
Abel says that there was $500 worth Of
stamps In the safe. The thieves Sc
cured these. The noise Of the explo-
sion aroused some of the residents
living near the postoffice. who saw the
robbers leave the postoflce and drive
In the direction Of this place. The
men were tracked to Somerville, but
here all trace of them was lost.

An Old Playbill.

An old playful Of the Kilkenny Thea
ter Royal for May H. 1898, has been
found. This playbill is reprinted in tho
Western England Mail. and the follow
ing Is an extract from it:
"Tho Tragedy of Hamlet, originally
written and composed by the celebrated
Dan Hayes of Limerick. and inserted In
Shakespeare's Works.
The playbill concludes with the interest
ing notice that ''no person whatsoever will
be admitted into the boxes without shoes
Or stockings" 1t is probable that this
Irish claimant to the honor Of the author
ship of "Hamlet" is not so we'll known as
his astounding claim might warrant.
