There is story told Of an old Grecian
philosopher that on one occasion when
his state was going to war, everybody
got badly excited, and there was run
ming hither and thither. each seeming to
have the burden OF defending the city
ON his shoulders. Old Diogenes had a
cooler head and could really see no oc-
casion for excitement, but not wishing
TO be idle when all were working, he
got his tub and began rolling it with
much clatter up and down the streets
OF Athens. The methods employed by
modern sensational newspapers to Gre
ate sale for their journals much re-
sembles the old philosophers actions.
The motto of the 'yellow journal is
excitement" whether there be any
event OF Importance or not. And to get
the people excited every day articles
are wildly exaggerated, lie is perpe-
tra.ed or rumor printed in the boldest
manner. Who is to blame? The peo-
pie, surely. Now that national catas-
trophe has occurred, many hesitate not
to place the whole blame on certain
journals noted for their freedom OF
speech. Yet the people themselves
are responsible for those journals. For
while it is true that the papers first
started the policy o. making much ado
about nothing. the public with an ap'
petite almost Unsuitable, has devoured
such items and editorials and asked for
more. When an actor is applauded, he
has reason TO feel his work acceptable
when newspaper sells well, it has rea
son to think that its methods are pleas
ing to the people. Who then can blame
them for pushing farther and farther
the license Of free speech, reaching a
last virtual anarchy.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER ., 1901.

The current Of thought in great
mems minds runs in the same directlon'
IL is said, but IT is seldom that there Is
such q remarkable instance OF 1T as has
come to light recently. Few poems are
more familiar to Americans than Poe's
"Ravenn with its sad refrain OF Never
more" and hitherto has had none or
possibly only one, rival in sameness OF
conception. A recent translation oi
some ancient Chinese literature, how
ever. literature which Poe could not
possibly have plagiarized, brings to light
n poem almost the counterpart oil the
.'Rayenn with its melancholy cast.
This was strange, but following close
upon this discovery comes another
revelation showing a poem written In
Italy years before Poe's time, entitled
the "Parrott," between which and the
"Rayen" there is a startling likeness.
In the "Raven" we have these lines:
Not the least obesiance made he; not a
moment stopped or stayed he,
Hut with mein of lord or lady percheu upon
the bust of Pallas, Just above my cham-
Der door. ,,--. .,
In the Parrot" we read this:
And the Parrot stlll is posing, winking, blink
ing, DOING - -
On the marble bust, Menerva, just above my
oaken door,
And his hellish eyes are cleaning like n devi
who is dreaming,
While the spluttering, iluttering, lampllgh'
paints his shadow on the iloor.'
