How the Indiana Poet Gained a Ma
tional Reputation.

The David Harum' incident. the
latest sensation in literary circles. recalls
the ''Leonainie' hoax that brought James
Whitcomb Riley to the surface as q
poet. A quarter of Il century ago Riley
was a commercial lsign painter an hls
section Of the State, portraying the mer-
its and claims Of village merchants on
highway fences bridges and barns. His
signs were always original. catchy and
unique, displaying poetic ability and the
talent that later characterized his work
III the literary world.
In the local newspapers there appeared
at short intervals short poems of real
merit that failed to attract more than
passing attention. Riley made an ener-
ge1c struggle for recognition, but the
world was not interested and his ambi-
ton and hope invariably turned to ashes
Still he did not give up. One evening
while sitting in village tavern discuss
ing with some genial companions the
merits of various authors and poets, and
the power of reputation III literary
work, Mr.. Riley was induced to write a
poem and publish it over the name of
Edgar Allen Poe. Accordingly Riley, an
the well-knOWn style of Poe, wrote
':I4emainie," the first stanza of which
reads:
"Leonainie-angels named her,
And they took the light
OF the laughing stars and framed her
In a frame of light

library at Anderson. brought west some
years before The writing was clever

ton and made n pronounced sensation.
The wild. wierd Style,was noticed by the
leading newspapers and poets Of the
country.

followed a flood Of abuse of the real

a fraud and his lines the merest dog

in the light OF the present age. Riley
friends were appalled, by the abuse heap

he was ruined Riley. himself, who was
not greatly disturbed by the connection
