The Paducah sun. [volume] (Paducah, Ky.) 1898-1906, 1902-04-09
A STRANGE CASE.

As our esteemed friend and contem-
porary, the Register, has reached the
Sinking hypocrite" stage,we grace
fully surrep, Ter ths field to it. The
Sun started ON to prove that the Reg
lister was paIpab iy and ridiculously in
consistent, and d, d it. We care moth
ing abont the wild and wooliy haiiuci-
nations of the Regis. 'er crowd In re-
gard to Mr.. Reed or q. 'yone else want
ing to get control of 'ocai politics.
We know that would b impossioie
with such powerful an. 'ru'hiu III
champion of 1.-THE people" as our con,
temporary. If we erred in say, "s 'n"'
the Register opposed Mr.. Re- VI 20
cause he was goldbug, we hui '''
apologize. 1t must have been bees, 90
he was one of those goldbugs who d,
not own stock in the Register. Per-,
haps that makes some difference. l.
Or possibly he didn't, as coun- a,
Gilman, vote to give the Reg hi
lister the public printing. The n,
Registers candidate for governor, te
Hon. John. X. Hendrick, was NJ
goldbug. II he isn't now, he prob a,
ably, like the Register, has some good It
reason for his sudden change. 1t is n
understood he owns stock In the a,
Register, so he has a right to be vi
goldbug, II turncoat or anything else. ii
This gives him complete immunity. Sc
The Sun does not admit that il is in a,
politics for revenue only, but con- b,
fesses it is not in it for its health. a,
The Register is in politics through b,
principle alone. and if it happens to al
change its principles from those of
goldbug to those of q Bryan and
Beckham Democrat in few brief t'
months, being great advocate of the u
people, it has simply to turn its coat p
wrong side out and sail in to do the
other fellows. It seems to be priv r
LEGGED character.
Mr.. Reed may have designs on the
Democratic county committee and
municipal politics. We are not in his
confidence, but if he is, he is bad oil for
something to control. He ought to
change his politics aud run for COVER
nor. Our veracious friend says there
was politics in tho worlds fair com
missioner endorsement. The Sun said
Yesterday that there was none. But
the Register declares there was, and
saws in substantiation that Mr.. Reed
was Endorsed by none but politicians
of the deepest stripe" and the motion
for the Commercial club to indorse
him was made by a Republican. Ono
would think, under ordinary circum-
stances, that a Republican politician
of such deep stripe" would have
moved to indorse Republican, but
doubtless his ''stripe" was not suffi-
GENTLY deep" for that. We confess
we are not adopts at the Registers
kind of argument Mr.. Reed has one
consolation, however. II he desires

DEER IN THE WOODS.
Their Appearance Dcceivcs All but
the Old Hunter.

Next to the difficulty of comprehend
ing the wonderful senses of the deer is
that of understanding how one looks in
the woods. Your ideas are necessarily
taken from pictures or from stuffed
deer or tame ones in park. You are
almost certain to be looking for Il deer,
whereas You might better he looking
for anything else. In the woods you
seldom see half of deer and generally
much less. often only part of the
shoulder, or only an ear over Il log or
leg under ii. Il bit of rump projecting
from n bush or Il head and bit of the
neck reaching up for leaves. The ar
cade of maple lit up by the scarlet Of
the ginseng and bush cranberry, the
little arbor where the wild hop is vel
lowing over the thorn apples on which
half dozen ruffed grouse are taking
their breakfast, the edge of the pool
where the trout flashes through the
water over which the chelone is still
nodding. or the darksome glade where
the golden petals of the witch hazel
are closing the floral march of the year
would all make lovely frames for that
charming artists deer with individual
hairs all glistening, the dark dew
claws shining, and even the split in the
hoof flashing artistic light from its
edges But the glittering tines, the
proud neck of the sculptured war
horse, the shaggy chest and bulging
rump with tail full of shining hairs
are not there except at long intervals
when you may rout an old fool out of
bed and get him twisted as to the
points of the compass,-T. 5. Van Dyke

STORY OF A FAMOUS POEM
How Gruy's "EIegyv Made Its First
Public Appearance.

One or the most celebrated of eight
eenth century poems, Gray's "Elegy,"
made its first public appearance in the
shape of a hurriedly printed pamphlet,
which was sold for siXpence. This pub
lieation was the result of q curious
race for priority. Gray completed the
poem some time in 1850, but had no
immediate intention of publishing it.
a copy. however, found its way into
the hands of a Mr.. Owen, the publish
er and proprietor of the Magazine of
Magazines. recently established peri
odical, and he wrote to the poet stat
ing his intention of printing it in his
magazine. and asking his cooperation.
The proposal was not at all agreeable
to Gray, but, seeing that publication was
inevitable, he wrote at once to Horace
Waipole explaining the circumstance
and asking him to get Dodsley to print
it immediately, but without the au-
thor's name WaIpole handed the
poem to Dodsley on Feb. II, 1851, and
OH the 10th copy was in Gray's hands
at Cambridge, SO that it was probably
published in London on the 18th or
10Th. The Magazine of Magazines for
February, according to the then Gus
tom, was published toward the end OF
the month, and may have come out on
the same day. The rival editions must
have appeared, it is pretty safe to say.
within a few hours of each other. The
action of the magazine editor was
hardly justifiable, but it laid the read
ing world under a debt of obligation
by forcing the poem into print. Sew
eral original copies of the ''Elegy" in
the poets writing are in existence.
One, which was sold for $1,150 at
Sotheby's in 1878, was especially in
teresting from the number of correc-
tiOns and erasures made by the au-
thor's hand. In this manuscript Gray
had substituted CROMWELL and Mil
ton" for Caesar and ''Tully' as he had.
originally written. His friend Mason
is said to have suggested this altera-
tion as well as the title of the poem.

lands and at both ends are completed,
and it is expected to have the cable in
operation before the end of the year.
Now that this cable is completed the
two big cable ships, Anglia and Co
lonia. will Immediately start to assist
in the construction of the American
cable as projected by the late John
w. Mackay This cable will join Ma.
Mia and San Francisco and will be
over 1900 miles long.
The route chosen is from San Fran
cisco to Honolulu, 2,0S9 miles; Homo
lulu to Midway island, 2,o40 miles;
Midway island to Guam. 1,290 miles;
Guam to Manila, 1,520 miles. and from
Manila to the Asiatic coast, 65O miles
The work between Midway and Guam
islands will be conducted in the deep
est water yet discovered. 1t is expected
that the cable will be laid without ac-
cident and that the United States will
be in direct communication with the
Philippines by the next Fourth of July.
In July, 1858, the first submarine ca
BILE. that across the Atlantic. was COM
pleted and operated. Since that time
nearly 100000 miles of cables have
been laid, and now, after forty-four
years, they encircle the globe.

The Hint Was Taken.

Johnnie McCraw was bit of char
acter in a country village in the north
of Scotland. He lived on the charity
of the village but sometimes found
it particularly hard work to do so.
One day, when the springs of sym
pathy seemed to have dried up, John
ME made his way to the house of the
local doctor and said:
1--WE come to get a my teeth taken
oot, doctor"
Dear mer' said the medical man.
"What's wrang wi them?'
"Oh, they're a RIGHT, but I've nae
use for them; I've naething to eat"
Yes said the doctor, who saw the
joke; "here's siXpence for you to get n
loaf"-Pearson's.

THE WORLD GIRDLED.
Significance of the Completion of
the British Pacific Cable.

When the cable laying steamship
Anglia arrived at Suva, Fiji islands,
few days ago with the end of the last
link of the British transpacific cable
on board, she had the distinction of
completing the electric girdle of the
globe.
This new cable, the only one across
the Pacific, extends from Vancouver,
in British North America, to Sydney,
Australia. The last link connects Suva
with Tanning island, in the middle Of
the Pacific and a short distance south
of the Hawaiian Islands. 1t is about
2,1O0 miles in length. The sections
connecting Tanning island with Van
couver and Suva with Australia were
already in place. The entire length Of
the cable is aboSt 1000 nautical miles.
The longest section of the cable, that
connecting Vancouver with Tanning is
land, was laid in three weeks by the
cable steamer Colonia. The distance is
1856 miles. From Suva the cable
touches at Norfolk island before land
ing at Sydney. The stations on the is

SOUTH POLE MYSTERIES.
Scotch Expedition Hopes to Add to
the worlds Knowledge.

the worlds Knowledge.
The worlds knowledge of the Ant
arctic ocean, men of science believe,
will be greatly enriched by the explo-
rations of the Scottish national antarc-
tic expedition, which recently set sail
from the port of Troon under the lead
ership of Mr.. William S. Bruce. The
party consists of thirty-two hardy
Scots, and their ship, the Scotia, is a
stanch whaler fitted with an auxiliary
screw capable of seven knots an hour.
The Scotia is splendidly equipped
and has several novel features, includ-
ing an apparatus for taking birdseye
Views from kites, moving picture ma
chimes for obtaining records of the
movements of south sea organisms and
5000 fathoms of cable, with the OBJ
ject of sounding the ocean where Sir
James Ross failed to find bottom with
1000 fathoms.
Mr.. Bruce, the head of the eXpedi-
tion, has already had no little expert
ence in arctic and antarctic exploring.
He sailed as naturalist with an ant
arctic expedition which went from
Dundee in 1892. He also accompanied
the -Harmswort polar eXpedi-
tion and the Prince of Monaco's eXpe-
dition to SpitZbergen. Altogether four
voyages have been made to the arctic
regions by him since 1896. Mr.. Bruce
is director of the laboratory of marine
zoology at the Surgeons hall of Edin-
burgh.
