Ancient Symbolism of the Glove.

Ancient Symbolism of the Glove.
In the history of dress the position of
the glove is unique. There was q time
when the glove was an emblem of con-
fdence. Forming a part Of the regal
habit, it became a badge of rank. In the
middle ages the ceremony Of investiture
in comforting dignities or bestowing
lands was consummated by the giving
Of a glove. Likewise. the deprivation
Of gloves was a ceremony Of degrada-
ton.
Then, too, it was the custom to give
gloves in payment Of rent, the gloves
being accepted as a guarantee Of a re-
tainer's service, which was the chief
condition of tenure. On the Scotch
border the glove held a high place as a
gage. Here a glove borne on the point
of a lance proclaimed an act Of peIidy.
Biting the glove was n sign Of hostile
intent and the usual prelude to a
quarrel
Throughout the history of dress they
are found symbolical Of pledges. cages,
gifts or favors. Gloves also form part
Of burial rites and were carried in fu'
neral professions until tho middle OF the
eighteenth century. When a maiden
died. it was the custom 70 place in the
center Of the garland which was borne
on her coffin a pair Of white Gloves

AIexander's rirat victory In Asia.

Aiexnuder'G First victory In Asia.
The battle Of the Ganicus. Of which
Professor Wheeler gives a vivid descrtp-
ton in The Century. was remarkable
as showing the military genius of Alex
ander the Great at an early point In
his career. It resulted in the crushing
defeat Of the PersiAns. and had been
planned by Alexander in such a way az
TO leave the Greek mercenaries Of Darius
practically out Of the fight. When the
Persians had been driven from the field,
these mercenaries were rapidly disposed
OF. such as were not slaughtered being
captured and sent home to slavery.
The percentage of losses on the win
ners' side was as small as in a Spanish
American sea fight. Alexander buried
the few fallen Macedonians with high
honors and exempted their parents and
children from the payment Of taxes
The wounded received his personal at
tsntion- "He went from one to the
other. looked at their wounds, inquired
particularly as to how they had been
received. and allowed them-what Is
dear 10 q soldiers heart. and especially
10 that Of the Greek soldier-'to tell
their tales and brag Of their deeds
Incidents like this, says Professor
Wheeler, ''betray in a striking way the
extent to which Alexander's leadership
and his empire were a personal thing.

The fact is now being thoroughly
established that all of the brilliant
war record Of a Kansas man named
Funston, is a pure and simple fake
and maintained for months by lean

was in service.
The first story vas to the effect that
he swami a river with six men in the
face of sixty of the enemy armed With

W CALIFORNIA POETS

The newspaper boom of Mr.. Mark
ham, the California poet continues
with such vigor in the San Francisco
papers that there is a suspicion t5at
some enterprising house is beh.no it
with a fat check book.
There are two mn in California
who have been writing infinitely bet
ter poetry than Markham for years
past. These writer's are Ambrose
Bierce aud Louis Robertson. Both
have the imaginative faculty in much
better development than Markham
and the construction Of their versih-
cation IS the finished work of literary
artists.
The Passing Show" by Bierce and
some of the sonnotts from the pen of
Robertson ought to be ranked as mon
umental productions of English liter
allure.
It is difficult to find any nobler
music in the range OF American poe
try or to hear the Lutte Of Orpheus
played with more ~Consumrnate skill,
To class Markham with either of these
writer's is a serious error of judgment
on the part Of anyone guilty of suck
