You have heard persons say: 81 never
read poetry" If this remark is made
affectedly, us II to say: "Poetry is silly,
and am above such frivolity as read
Ing it." there is no need to comment
upon the foolish ignorance of anyone
who knows no more than to talk SO
absurdly. says writer in st. Nicholas.
But IL It be said modestly, and because
the speaker believes that poetry is
strange and foreign thing, requiring
peculiar talent for it's appreciation,
then the state Of mind from which the
remark comes is one to be pitied. Po-
etry is the earliest form of writing.
All the Oldest books are either in verse
or are in poetical style. Babies begin
with nursery rhymes" and under
stand them before they can under
stand prose. Prose requires training
for its appreciation, and young read
er who can see the literary beauties
Of prose needs little teaching in lit
erature.

Educated Cinnamon, it is stated, de-
clare that the accounts of the disturb
ances occasioned by the Boxers are
greatly exaggerated, and that they are
simply being taken advantage of by
the great powers as an excuse for land
ing more troops. The Boxers, it is said,
are a lawless element, such as may
commit depredations in any country,
during great strikes, for instance, and
the recent condition of affairs in ST..
Louis is pointed to as an example of
what is meant.

RAN AWAY FROM HOME.
A Sailor Who Found Sea Life Too
Hard.

Hard.
A sailor lad who came here on the
bark Northern Light, after having run
away from home, went to the consul's
office yesterday to get his discharge on
account of i'll health. He found the
work on the vessel too hard. A doctor
who examined him stated that he was
suffering with heart disease, and this
morning he was paid off and allowed
TO leave. He is Harry Lewis, whose
parents in Tennessee are said to be
quite wealthy people.
Lewis ran away from home at the
beginning of the war with Spain. He
wanted to fight Spaniards and Joined
the famous first Tennessee regiment,
passing through here with the regiment
on his way to the Philippines. After
the regiment returned Lewis got his
discharge in San Francisco. Rather
than go home after his running away
he shipped as an ordinary seaman on
the Northern Light. The latter is a
small bark and the work on her is a
snap" compared to what it is on some
other larger vessels but Lewis was not
used to the hardships he encountered
and could not stand 1t.
