The Literary Outlook.
CBy Herbert Rrewster.)

No enc who has read Mr. Stephen
Phillips dramatic poem, Ulysses will
venture to deny that it is a great work.
one indeed which should add to the fame
of the author. There are few men who
would not be proud of such an achieve
ment Whether the conception of the
play is due to Mr.. Phillips or whether
the idea was suggested to the poet by
Mr. Beerbohm Tree, who is now present
ing the piece in London, does not in the
least degree detra"t from the credit due
to the one who has produced such a
mastery drama. There has recently
been published, however, fragment of
d playa single scene-which. together
with some strange facts, brings up a
question of moral responsibility touch
ing on ownership of literary ideas which
Mr.. Tree should answer.
Early in June, 1900, Mr.. Richard Ar
thur, a young English writer. met Mr..
Tree at the house of Louis Parker. the
dramatist, and at that time Mr.. Arthur
suggested a play based on the adven-
lures of Ulysses. Mr.. Tree was much
interested in the outline and asked Mr..
Arthur to submit the scenario to him
as soon as he could get it ready. Ac-
Cordingly the young man set to work,
and in the course of few days-on
June II, to be eXact-he forwarded the
thesis to Mr.. Trees representative. Mr..
Lionel Hart. The title of the work was
"Odysscus and Penelope" and, as sug-
gested by Mr.. Tree, the play was to be
written in prose, although the author
had originally planned it in blank verse.
During the course of the next few
months several letters passed between
the principals in the case, and finally, in
January, 1901. Mr.. Hart wrote to Mr..
Arthur, advising him that Mr.. Tree was
obliged to decide against the play. 81

the subject, or that any version OF the
story would commend itself to him.

Three days later Mr. Hart wrote again
saying that something had transpired
which Mr.. Tree felt should be made
known.

A VOICE FROM THE SOUTH.
Judge Emory Speer Says an Impartial
Suffrage Law Will Solve the So-
Called Race Problem.

Buffalo, N. Y, Dec. 21.-Emory
Speer, judge of the United States
court for the Southern district of
Georgia, was the guest of the indie
pendent club at it's second annual din
ner. Two hundred guests listened to
an address by Judge Speer on the sub
ject, "The Solid Sc1tln' 1t is undeni-
ably true, the speaker said, that the
political attitude of the southern peo-
pie toward the government is direct
ly ascribable to the swift bestowal by
the reconstruction acts of unlimited
manhood suffrage upon the members
of the African race, which, he assert
ed, was no part of Lincoln's plan fo-
the restoration of the union. The So
luton of the race problem, said Judge
Speer, will be found in the enactment
of impartial laws for white and black
men alike, which will admit to the
franchise the intelligent, the upright
and the responsible of both races and
exclude the venal, the ignorant and
the worthless.

will cure a case where the lungs are badly

these conditions; but on the other hand,
if the lungs are not hard hit, the patient
should take DIR. August Koenig's Ham

cover with oil silk, let it remain an hour,

open, except in the very severe weather.
Take cold sponge bath every morning; then
Immediately rub the body vigorously with

Hugo, Col, Dec. pa Kansas City
commission company expected to
ship 1,700 head of cattle from here
Saturday that have been kept in the
south part of the county during the
summer and fall. They got them
within two miles of Hugo and had
to let them go on account of the
severe storm. 1t will take two weeks
to gather them again and it is prob
able that many of them will perish
or drift so far they viii never be
found again. A flock of 1000 sheep
belonging to Walter Hardie got away
from the herder and the storm has
been so bad it has been impossible
to go out and look for them.
Snow Six to Ten Feet Deep.
Denver, Col, Dec. 22.-The blizzard
that has ragged in eastern Colorado
and Wyoming and western Kansas
and Nebraska was the most serious
in years to the railroads as far as the
interruption of traffic is concerned.
All trains on the Union Pacific and
Burlington roads were delayed at
least "a hours. This is true of trains
over the Kansas Pacific branch of
the Union Pacific. Along this line
snow drifts from six to ten feet deep
made the movement of trains impos-
sible until the tracks could be cleared.
