SKETCH OF BERT HARTE
DIR. RICHARD BURTON WARMLY
PRAISES CALIFORNIA WRITER
Was Possessed of Natural Talent for
Fiction and "a Gift for Pic
turesGue Pioneer Short
Story Writing.

In a manner admiring and commenda-
tory DR.. Richard Burton discussed Bret
Harte as an author last night at the
Park Congregational church. Even such
slightly adverse criticism as the speaker
felt bound to make was spoken with
apparent reluctance, and tempered with
some praise. In part DR.. Burton said:
Bret HART was primarily and essen
TALLY an artist Fiction was natural to
him, as Is shown in his early parodies
and sketches. He possessed in a remark
able degree the instinct for imitation
and the native talent for fiction. HIS
powers of observation were strongly de-
veloped, and believe he acquired the ma
terial from which he WoVe his best stories
unconsciously, and before he had any IDEA
Of utilizing it In that manner. Bret
Harte was possessed, too, of that essen
tial gift for the picturesque In real life
which is SO valuable in all writing. the
picturesque is all about us. If we have
the eyes to see 1t, and he had that pic
turesque observation, as we may call IL.
He could eliminate the unimportant de-
tail and leave a picture of striking COM
strong in technique.
1t was those natural gifts of which
spoke which enabled Bret Harte to blaze
the way, as it were, for all short-story
writer's. His stories are composed of a
series of dramatic events, so woven to-
gether as to make finished whole His
best works, such as the Luck of Roar
ing Camp" Tennessees Partner,''5 the
"Outcasts of Poker Flat demonstrate
that. The most successful short-story
writers have all limited their characters
to a small number, and l think it may
be said that is essential to success i'll
that style of writing. That character
istic is strongly marked in the writings
of Bret Harte. In '"Tennessee's Partner
for instance, the principal characters are
only two, the others are merely incidents
al. s7-.. f{. s9.2
A substratum of wholesome teaching
underlies all the work of Bret Harte.
He taught the lesson that we are all
the children of one Father; the great les
son of charity and humanity. But there
is one detraction possible. That wide
tolerance of his which sees good in ev-
eryone, the gambler the rough miner,
the fallen woman and all of those char
acters of the rough and lawless West as
he knew it, leads US at times to inquire
if he did not lie in his representa- lions.
l am convinced that some of those char
acters, as heThas drawn them, are ex-
aggerations of human nature as it is.
| believe that the characters in 1.-THE
Luck of Roaring Camp and Tennessees
Partner are truly correspondent with
human nature, but I believe that those
of 1.-THE Outcasts Of Poker Flat are not.
Still, even though some of those charac-
tiers may be out of drawing, are the sto-
ries themselves, with the lessons they
teach, worthy as allegories.
The entertainment closed with the read
ing of '"Tennessee's Partner by DIR. Bur-
ton.

Stinson woke up one morning to find
himself poor man.
The order issued by Judge Lochren

the Minneapolis property, and neglecting

reason sale should be ordered. Attor

TWO ELEVATORS BURNED
FIRE AT PORT HURON DESTROYS
MUCH GRAIN.

PORT HURON, Mich, Nov. 4-Fire
tonight destroyed two large adjoining
grain elevators owned by the Botsford
Elevator company, entailing loss of
100000. There were 171,0O0 bushels of
wheat, $4,000 bushels of corn, and 14,000
bushels of oats in the buildings, and the
grain was all destroyed. The loss on the
buildings is estimated at s25,00O, with
$4,000 insurance, and $175,0O0 on the
grain. The grain was fully insured
The elevators were to have been used
as one of the storage. points in the pro-
tected through grain routes of the Grand
Trunk railroad system, from Duluth,
Mimi, to Leith, Scotland. J. E. Bots
ford stated that the loss of these eleva-
tors would not hinder the project, as
millfon-bushel elevator would be con-
structed at Point Edward, Ont. The
burned elevator will probably not be re-
built.
During the progress of the fire the roof
Of one of the buildings fell in and Chief
Charles Thorne, of the fire department,
was caught underneath. He received
probably fatal injuries;
