KIPLING'S POPULARITY.
Ihe Famous Writer'S Remarkable
Faculty of Appealing to All
Classes of Readers

thas been generally suggested that
the worlingman's enthusiasm for Kip
ling is due 10 the omniscience of this
writer Of "a years; that the soldier re-
veres him for his knowledge of sol
dier's work, pleasures and woes; that
the railroad man swears by him because
he understands so well how an engine
is built; that Che sailor and the fisher
man, the public schoolboy. the city
clerk, the mechanic, find the fascina-
'ion in his perfect acquaintance with
their life. No doubt this clinches the
charm, but certainly broader prin-
ciple underlies the popularity which
the poet and fictionist has won with the
masses. This is that he appeals to the
emotional side of his readers as well as
10 the intellectual
man like Matthew Arnold, be he
never so great, finds himself, perhaps
with some approval, cut of from all but
those readers in whom there is some
unusual degree of intellectual training
and refinement. Kipling masters such
readers, too, with his magnificent GER
tainty of phrase and healthful yigor,
and with his soul-stirring dramatic fac
ulty proceeds to capture the rest of the
world that knows better how TO feel
than to think. Doubtless, too, his bril-
linntly early success as popular au-
thor is due very largely to his choice of
subjects; to the vigorous launching of
his genius into the topic of the hour,
the present problem OF the nation.
Thus rs good a poem as THE White
Mans Burden" might easily have been
unnoticed by the world at large had it
none of the tremendous public interest
which has brought utterance into the
mouths of millions OF Americans.
Here Mr.. kipling has in his poetic
work an advantage and danger analo-
gous to those which are before the
lesser singers of stage topical songs. A
palpable hit is certain to fetch the
whole house; on the other hand, the
populace is expectinga n hit every time,
and few performers can invariably
meet its demands. Mr.. Kipling seems
to be such an inevitable sort of fellow
that one is surprised even TO hear that
he ever writes things over twice before
giving them to us. But he assures the
rare and happy interviewer that most
of what he writes goes into the waste
baskct.-Review of Reviews.

A Briu.h Cruiser. Marrow Escape.

Her majesty's ship Eclipse narrowly
escaped the experience of the American
cruiser Maine during her stay at Bonn
bay recently. 1t appears that while the
officers were at dinner in the wardroom
an explosion occurred beneath them,
followed by sounds of numerous slight
er conclusions. The sounds were To-
Gated in the shellroom of the l2-pound-
er quick-iring gun. This was at once
flooded, and after pumping out the in.
spcction showed that three l2-pouuder
shells from the top tier had exploded,
the fragments being scattered all over
the room, though little damage was
done TO the room fittings or to other
shells. These shells are of highly ex-
plosive character, but no others showed
signs of injury. a court of inquiry was
ordered, but no information beyond
that already known was ELECTED, the
only explanation of the mystery being
a theory of spontaneous explosion

directly after the noon NEAL" writes
Edward B. Warman, in his "Five-M dir

Ladies' Home Journal. "The time
given to it may seem too precious for
one in business, but it will be more
than compensated for by the mental
and bodily condition that follows. Sit
in an easy chair. Lying down directly
after meal crowds the digestive organs
and makes one sleep restless instead OF
restful. Rest the head comfortably
Tip the chair to pleasant ang Tor the

joints, close the hands together by in
terlacing the fingers, place the feshy
part OF the thumbs together In order to
avoid grasping tho hands too tightly,

while in a comic way we attach all the
qualities OF a hog to the race that will
not eat him, yet we feel most sincerely
that man is not to be dealth with
harshly in relation to crime just be-
cause he is Jew. So, therefore, when
we found reproduced in our own day
the worst elements of the most heart
less Jew-baiting of the Middle Ages,
our sympathies we're drawn to the man
more than ever because of the accident
of his birth and we rejoice at the pres
ent proof that even Jew has rights
which an infidel nation is bound to
respect. Worked into the fabric Of
our resentment also was the fact that
in the Revolution, in the Rebellion,
and in the recent Spanish war, the Jew
bravely threw his lot in with us, as
though the long centuries OF his strug-
giles in Palestine and of his abuses in
Christendom made him love liberty
just as strongly as we do.
