CORRESPONDENT.


Correspondent.
Forbes was one of those writer's who
seemed to be led by his pen. When
writing the ink bottle inspired him;
but the apparent facility was greatly
due to his perceptive faculties and
the habit Of consciously as well as I'M
consciously storing his perceptions.
He had an excellent judgment In
things military and literary, and had
an instructive feeling Of the stand
point that would suit the public. He
also read character quickly. His re-
spect for authority was deep, and yet
he was, as a schoolboy, student and
soldier, always getting into scrapes
for being insubordinate. | dare say
the reason was a Scotch tendency to
argue, coupled with pertinacity. He
told me that as soldier he received
every punishment under capital pun
ishment, short of flogging, that mill
tary judges could infict In looking
back at his career he often wondered
that he did not desert. Not that he
ever felt tempted, but his outlook was
utterly hopeless. He fancied that the
activity of his brain kept him from
doing so, for somehow, even when
his lines were hardest, life seemed to
him full Of interest. He also took
pride in punctually obeying orders.
There was something in the walk
and look of Forbes that reminded me
of watchful sentinel. He was eager
to make money, and must have made
a great deal, but he spent freely and
had no idea of economy. Money
slipped through his fingers. He was
a good comrade when the feeling of
rivalry did not come in. There was
no egotism in his talk, though he only
talked of what came within the range

Literary Digest.

Little seems to be definitely
known about Kiplln g's new novel
which is to appear serially in this
country next autumn. 1t is var
iously rumored that the scene is
laid i'll Upper Burma, in India,
and in South Africa. The Critic
May announces that the story
is to be called "Kim of the
Rishbi," and adds that it is not a
novel of action, but philosophical
and analytical in its character.
The Publishers Circular, London,
states that for the serial rights of
his new novel Mr.. Kipling is to
receive the highest price ever
paid to an English writer of fic.
tiOn-a sum equal to the annual
salary of an English cabinet
minister.
Colonel Harvey, the new head
of the house of Harper & Bros,
has been visiting London, and
the British Weekly publishes an
interview with him in which,
among other things, he had this
to say: "My plans are to carry
out the business on the old lines,
but free from traditional restric-
tions. For example, the firm has
always been opposed to cent
magazines; but if, after full ex
animation, l find ten cent mag
azine is wanted, l shall start one
and endeavor to make it just as
good as possible. While seeking
to retain the high literary repu-
tation of the Harpers, l shall be
more ready perhaps to consult the
public taste"
The past twelve months have
been a period of literary surprises
in the field of fiction. At least
three novels by American authors
have had within a period of a
few months sales unprecedented
in recent years. "Richard Car
vel, "David Harum," and "Jan.
ice Meredith" And now comes
a new and remarkably promising
aspirant to popularity, Miss Mary
JOhnStone's "To Have and to
Hold" a historical novel dealing
with the settlement of jamestown.
Within two weeks and a half the
sales, it is announced, reached
1ll,0O0 copies, and it has now
reached 100000 Even "Uncle
Toms Cabinn can not show such
figures, for it took two months to
reach a sale Of 100, 900 copies,
and year to reach 200, 600. All
these remarkable sales are be.
lieved to indicate a vast growth
Of recent years in the American
reading public. At no time has
so tempting field been presented
to the successful novelist.

ECLIPSE OF THE SUN.
Seen in Frederick Despite OBJ
securing Clouds - A Most
Beautiful Spectacle.

Considerable interest was man.
ifeSted in the solar eclipse on
Monday last, and although the
beauty of total phase was de-
MED observers in this locality,
those who watched the passage
of the moon across the face of
the sun, were rewarded by a very
beautiful spectacle.
The first contact occurred at
about 7.30 a. M, and gradually
increased to semi totality-that
is only narrow crescent of the
suns rim or about nineteenth.
twentiethS of the entire surface
was visible = about $50 a. IN.
After that the moon passed rap
idly off the sun, and the end of
the eclipse occurred about ten
o'clock.
y large number of persons
with smoked glasses viewed the
phenomena from the streets and
roofs of houses. Many amateur
photographers took advantage of
the opportunity and secured good
negatives of the various stages
of the eclipse.
Along the line of totality, ex-
tending from Mexico to Old
Point Comfort near Norfolk, Va,
fifty miles wide, hundred of as
Economical observers with instru-
mentS had good observations OF
the eclipse, The weather was
perfect and good results are
certain. Here was seen the real
beauty of the total eclipse. The
moon entirely shut of the light
of the sun and when the exact
moment of totality came, the
corona or light atmosphere Of the
sun shone out around the black
disk of the observing moon, with
dazzling splendor. President
Mckinley aud party went from
Washington to old Point Com
fort to see it.
Prof. Apple, of the Woman's
College, this city, with a party
of students, also observed the
eclipse in Norfolk.
The most wonderful part Of il
all is the marvellous accuracy
displayed by astronomers in for
casting this event more than a
century ago. Almost the exact
second was foretold. An inter
eSting fact in connection with
the present eclipse is that Mr..
Alexander Grayson, brother of
Mr.. George GraySon, of this city,
a civil engineer and astronomer,
as far back as 1852, drew dia-
gram of the total eclipse of 1900
and stated the hour, minute and
second of the different phases.
He joined southern regiment
and was k illed at Ii g
battle of Gettysburg Judge of
the Orphans Court, G. Blanch.
ard Philpot, has the diagram in
his possession.
The weather in Frederick was
cloudy, but cleared away enough
to get a good view of the eclipse,
especially in the narrow crescent
form.

has a daughter nearly three years of
age who is very particular about say
ing her prayers before retiring each
night. One evening last week her.
mother was detained from hearing her
prayers at the usual hour, and little
Louise waited patiently some time.
Finally patience ceased to be virtue
with her, and she climbed upon q chair,
and taking down the receiver Of the
telephone, shouted into it: ssls..
Hello, Central dive me heaven.
z want to say my prayers Z +
She struck the keynote, for imme-
diately her mamma heard the little
ones prayers without the use Of q
telephone, and the sleepy little one
was snuggled into bed. a%. .
