FRANK II. STOCKTON.

In commenting on Frank Stockton, whose
are chasing him as a humorist first of all
This characterization seems to the Journal
to be hardly correct That he had humor
is, of course. true; ii was a quaint humor
and was manifested in many things that
he wrote. though not ALL What is more
taste for the grotesque and fantastic. He
had an imagination which constructed orig
inal and eccentric situations He created
odd characters and placed them in unusual
settings; then, by treating these conditions
as normal and natural and writing of them
in a realistic way. he led his readers to
accept the grotesqueries as If they were
probabilities and to become interested in
them accordingly. Ii was a freakish talent,
but through it's exercise he was enabled to
provide wholesome entertainment and
amusement for many people. Some of his
best work was his earliest 'Rudder
Grange" for instance. This and 1.-THE Lady
or the Tiger" will probably be longest re-
membered. Many of his later stories are
of a commonplace order. Several years ago
he contributed to one OF the magazines a
short story which, it is just possible. was
based on his own experience. 1t relates the
history of man who. by steady and indus
trious effort had secured footing in the
magazines, all of his productions being
fairly sure OF acceptance, though, as he
was himself well aware, they we're not of
a high order of merit. Then, during a
period of great happiness and consequent
mental exaltation. he wrote a story incom-
parably better than anything he had be-
fore produced. 1t was Published and
brought him into immediate prominence.
Requests came from editors for more Of
the same sort. Meanwhile, life had fallen
back TO the ordinary level; he had no longer
a special inspiration and could write moth
ing better than the commonplace fiction OF
the sort produced before the creation OF
his masterpiece The editors would have
none of it. and he found himself deprived of
the market he had formerly enjoyed. He
continued 10 produce commonplaces, but il
WIS two or three years before his former
safe but not especially enviable relations
with the periodicals were restored. Again,
in time Of unusual mental uplifting, he
wrote another story which he recognized
as equal to the one which had brought him

into notice. He knew it was gem, a work
OF art. and at first was overjoyed. Then
he reflected that to give this story to the
publishers would. as before, crease de-
mand for more OF the same kind, which
he could not supply. and. his ordinary work
being made unacceptable, he would, in
the other case. be deprived of a market
SO. after long thought and much hesita-
ton and regret. he resolved to take no
more risks. and by way of removing temp

product of his whimsical fancy; perhaps.
on the other hand. it was his way of &C
knowledging an irregularity of talent.
However this may be. it is certain that the
public was sufficiently well pleased with his
work not to find fault because he did not
rise to greater heights. He did his share
toward Frightening the world.

He died in 1907. In 1888 two OF his grand
daughters petitioned Congress for compen-
sation for their grandfather's services dur
ing the revolutionary war. Their petition
was accompanied by a letter from Iafay
cite approving it. President Jackson trans
mitted the papers TO Congress without any
recommendation on the subject. but no fur
Their action was taken. Congress may have
thought that as the French officers were
paid by their own government during their
service in this country it was under no
special obligation TO make further COM
pensation. Besides. Rochambeau himself
never asked for additional compensation,
and his descendants had no special claim
10 it. His personal character and services
were such as TO fully entitle him to the
honor of a statue in Washington at the
expense of Congress, and no doubt the oc-
casion will be made historic. The visiting
Frenchmen will learn that republics are
not ungrateful.

A SOCIAL FERMENT IN GERMANY.

A dispatch from Berlin gives little
going on in Germany 1t says Emperor
William is bitterly criticised in aristo-
cratic drawing-room circles because I'M
titled business men constituted the major
ity of his guests during his recent ex-
cursion in the North sea on a German
steamer 1t is said the German nobility
disapprove the Emperors evident liking
for the company of prominent and sue
cessful business men. One paper says Of
his recent guests on the German steamer:
'They were not the heads of conservative
noble families. nor representatives of real
German citizenship nor men who can be
characterized as guardians of the spark
of national idealism." Another paper says
it perceives that increasing the social
position of men of great capital will make
the American idea supreme in Germany"
Among other curious points made in the
discussion is that while in the United States
Prince Henry shook hands with laborers.
1t is quite likely he did, but it would be
interesting to know what member of his
suite reported the fact with an evident
purpose of censuring his democratic con-
duct.
The situation has a serious as well as a
comic aspect. 1t is amusing to learn that
the German nobility, who have probably
done less for themselves or for mankind
than the nobility of any other country,
cannot support their titles respectfully,
are apprehensive lest the sacred court at
mosphere which they breathe may be con-
taminated by the presence of some of the
self-made men who are making modern
Germany a great industrial and commercial
nation. The national idealism of these
German captains of industry is not the
myths and legends of medieval times, but
scheme of development and progress
not dreamed of in aristocratic philosophy.
1t is amusing to see the mobiles who trace
their Importance to some old feudal baron
or land robber barking back to the times
when their titles meant something.
A more serious aspect of the case is
the evidence it affords of the steady dis
semination of American ideas. 1t is an
other foreshadowing of the Anglo-Saxon-
izing of the world on American lines. The
titled classes may protest and croak, but
the keynote of the future is triumphant
democracy. Prince Henry shaking hands
with American workingmen is typical of
great coming changes, and Emperor Will
liam inviting successful business men to
be his travelling companions shows he
knows which way the center of power is
moving. An hereditary ruler of the TWEEN
tieth century who fails to cultivate the
democratic element of his people is very
unwise. Fifty years hence the Emperor
of Germany. if there shall be one then,
will owe far more to the plain common
people than he will to the owners of empty
titles.
