POETRY kND SCIENCE.
Poet laureate Austin Says They Are Com
Elementary and Not Rivals.

Poet laureate Austin Says They Are Com
Elementary and Not Rivals.
1t is so commonly assumed that
poetry and science are antagonistic
that an address delivered by the
poet laureate, Alfred Austin, at the
opening of a new school of science
and art, deserves wide publicity.
Macaulay, with his we'll known love
of antithesis, once endeavored to
show that as civilization advances
poetry almost necessarily declines,
and taking science as one of the
most important factors in the civil
lizing process the inference is that
a poet with knowledge of scientific
facts labors under disadvantage.
Now, however, we are able to give
poet laureate's opinion that science
and art are complementary to one
another and not rivals. Science,
said Mr.. Austin, is exact knowledge
that and nothing more. But exact
knowledge is the foundation of all
the arts, and no man ever achieved
real greatness in any of them who
did not have the firmest grasp of
the permanent facts which underlie
them. Music, the most Intangible
and fantastic of the arts, cannot
move one step or excite a single
emotion without submitting to the
severe discipline of numbers. Final
ly, the matter of a poets verse is
not of much account unless it be ami
mated by the scientific spirit of
close and wide observation and of
loving accuracy.
1t must be obvious to any one who
has read the "Divina Commedia"
that the greatest poet of the middle
ages, than whom there was none
greater in any age, was thorough
ly familiar with all the science or
exact knowledge of his time, and
Leonardo da Vinci, who might
have equals but had no superior
in the realm of painting, was not
more fascinated by artistic concep-
tions than by what are called scien-
titic problems, and at these he la
bored indefatigably. Alike, there
fore, by necessity and choice, art
exhibits sympathetic kinship with
science. The scientific spirit, far
from being hostile to the artistic
spirit, is ancillary to it, for, as Dry
den said, Genius is perfected by
SCIENCE The noblest manifesto
tions of both have always occurred
in one and the same epoch. Athens
produced Euclid as well as Prax-
iteles, the vigorous old age of Mi
chael Angelo overlapped the preco-
cious youth of Galilei, and Bacon
was the contemporary of Shakes
peare. And though the century
now drawing. to close has been
pre-eminently a scientific century
the locomotive and the telephone
will not be more enduring than the
verse of Byron and Tennyson or
than the pictures of Turner and
Watts. The reasoning intellect is
the foundation alike, of science and
of art, but, concluded Mr.. Austin,
while reason alone suffices to
science, art is reason transfgured
by emotion. n.-Nature.

by neglect of symptoms which have been
warning him year past that his stomach
was failing in its duties"
The symptoms of disordered condition
of the stomach and the organs of digestion
and nutrition are, among others, variable
appetite, sour risings, heartburn, undue
fullness after eating, dull headache, dingy
complexion discolored eye, fluctuations in
physical strength, nervousness, sleepless-
ness, dependency. No one person will
have all these symptoms at once, but any
one of them calls for prompt aid for the
suffering stomach.
The restoration of the stomach, digestive
and nutritive organs to a condition of sound
health, begins with the first dose of DR.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery The
cure progresses from that dose until the
functions of the stomach and its related
organs are in healthy operation. Then the
nerves are quiet, the appetite healthful, the
sleep restful, the eye bright, the complex
ion clear In one word the body is in a
condition of perfect health.

WAS A CLOSE VOTE.
Resignation Of DR..
Harris Accepted
by Parish.
HIS REASON WAS SUFFICIENT.
Does Not Know Whether
He Could Be Induced
to Stay.

All Souls Church parish met last
evening to act upon the resignation of
Rev. DR.. Moses H. Harris, pastor of
the church. George Kingston, presid-
ent Of the board of trustees, was chair
man of the meeting. The resignation
was accepted
Contrary to expectation, no herculean
effort had been made to raise money
z for liquidating the church debt, and
enable the payment of a large salary
to the pastor, Rev. DR.. Harris was not
at the church during the evening.
The discussion on the acceptance was
spirited while it lasted DIR. Harris had
staunch believers in his worth to the
church, and they were strongly opposed
to letting the pastor slip away. The
statement recently attributed to DR..
Harris, to the effect that he did not
wish to burden the parish with his
salary, was considered a sufficient ex-
{ cuse for accepting the resignation.
Fifty-two votes were cast, and Clerk
HI. H. Dyke announced the vote as 20
in favor and 20 against acceptance.
The indebtedness of the church has
Increased about $4,000 during the past
three years, as the society has been
obliged to borrow $1,000 yearly. The
borrowed money has been used in liq-
uidating the building indebtedness of
the church
Rev. Moses H. Harris was seen at his
4 home last evening, after the meeting.
He said: II have not yet heard what
twas done by the parish. do not know
whether I could be induced to stay l
had rather not say any more about it.
You had better talk with the trustees"

Common Council Con
ours in Kettle
Brook Matter.
LOOKS LIKE A CELEBRATION.
City Fathers Have a Warm
Discussion Over Band
Concerts.

Members of the common council vot-
ed at a special meeting last night to
concur with the board of aldermen in
the adoption of orders looking to the
final adjustment of the Kettle brook
water cases now pending against the
city, and from the present outlook there
seems no obstacle in the way of cele-
brating the fourth anniversary of the
taking of this system on June q, when
it is hoped that final settlement will be
effected.
Councilman Lancaster wanted some
information regarding just what the
settlement included, which was fur
nished by the city solicitor, and the or
ders authorizing an immediate settle
ment of the cases and the borrowing of
100000 under the provisions of chapter
$50 of the acts of 1895, were adopted
unanimously.
Aside from the principal object of
the meeting, considerable argument
was called forth by an order introduced
by Councilman O'Leary, that the COM
mittee on military affairs be instructed
to consider the advisability of Sunday
band concerts at the expense of the
city, and to report as soon as possible.
Councilman James Hunt said that he
supposed the matter had been settled
the night before; he hoped the order
would not prevail. Councilman Lam
caster spoke in favor, stating that 9TH
er cities have such concerts. He consid-
cred it a fair proposition that people
who are shut up in shops and factories
should have a chance to visit the parks
and other points of interest in the city
o. nd CT n ho on
Councilman Wheeler thought that be-
cause other cities have such concerts it
was no reason that Worcester should
follow their example, he for one would
have Worcester serve as an example to
other cities. Councilman Meagher
thought Worcester should teach other
cities liberality. He failed to see any
objection to the order from a liberal
fair-minded standpoint. Councilman
James Hunt repeated that he did not
believe in Sunday band concerts, and
of Worcester placed on a level with the
common council of Boston.
At this juncture Councilman Johnson
rose to point of order, Directing to
further discussion, bat his point was
overruled. After considerable more
discussion the order was adopted after
motion to lay on the table had been
defeated by vote OF III to o.
The common council concurred with
the upper board in the adoption of the
reports of the committee on streets, on
the orders for the construction of Pink
street from Highland to John street,
and providing for flush hydrants and
stand pipes, as set forth in the petition
of the American Car Sprinkler Com
Dany. ".t--' ------ ss.
Several reports Of the committee on
streets, recommending ineXpedient to
act were taken from the table and &C.
cepted namely, the order to construct
sidewalk on Jackson street, from
Southbridge street to the railroad
tracks; to construct Perry avenue from
Seymour to Harlem street; to recon
struct a sidewalk on the south side of
Exchange street.
The common council then adjourned
until Monday night, at o'clock.
