interesting Traits of the Two America
Authors.


One afternoon in the years OF which

In Atlantic Monthly, l chanced to cali
upon Mr.. Longfellow just after he had
received visit from DR.. Holmes.
What delightful man he isr' said
he. But he has left me, rs he gener.

inquired the cause, he replied: "The
movement of his mind Is so much mora
rapid than mine that I often find n
! difficult to follow him. and IL I keep
up the strain for a length of time
| headache Is the penalty"
Every one who knew the Autocrat
must have been impressed by this trait
nscribed to him by Longfellow-the
extraordinary rapidity of his mental
processes. Not that he talked fast
but that his turns of thought were STR.
prislngly bright and quick, and often
made with kind Of scientific precision,
ngreeably in contrast with the loose,
ness of statement commonly charac,
terizlng those who speak volubly and
think fast.
Longfellow had fund of quiet humor
in relating traditions connected With
the old house. one of which commemo
rated an occasion when Washington
was said to have INDUCED in the laugh
ter so rare with him. 1t was when
General Putnam brought to headquar
ters an old woman taken as a spy
whom he carried, reluctant and
struggling, on his back. into the house
"a sight which proved too much fof
the gravity even of the Father of Hls
Country. After the ladies (some
stranger callers were gone 1 asked
Mr.. Longfellow If sucn visits We're not
sometimes n bore to him. "Yes," he
said, "if the comers are pretentious OF
shallow-minded; then make as quick
work with them as courtesy will al
low. But these were sincere persons
and 1 am glad to have afforded them
pleasure which was evidently so much
to them, and which they will remember
all their lives"
His conversation was simple and
easy, and often enlivened by a genial
pleasantly, to me more welcome than
the wit that keeps the listener too
much alert. 1 never heard him make
pun.

Letting Go Is Taking Hold.

Giving is getting; letting 60 is holding
on, in, Gods service. Not what we get.
but what we give. is the measure of our
possessions. As we let 90 of what we
% vaise' rather than as we hold on to it, is it
made ours. DR.. Bushnell expressed this
truth when he said. characteristicallv.
You never know a truth until you've told
It to somebody else" And Browning II
Illustrates it when he says:
"A poo" man served by thee shall make
thee rich:
A sick, man helped by thee shall make
thee strong:
Thou shalt be served thyself by every
sense
OF service thou renderest."
And; most OF all, St. Paul emphasizes the
basal truth when he reminds us. "Pemem.

A Franchise TanqIe.

Commissioners Collin and Butler.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Poin-
dexter Attorney J. II. Marshall and
N. s. Pratt argued extensively at the
commissioners court yesterday after
noon about the right of the county
to grant a franchise when the opera
ton Of that franchise shuts the sup
ply of water off the we'll of a private
individual.
Judge Marshall appeared for Mrs.
Young and asserted that when the
commissioners granted a franchise to
Milan concern to lay service Pipe;
through the road and to maintain a
well it damaged Mrs. Young because
the well was purposely sunk within a
very few feet of her we'll and took all
the water from it,
Mr.. Poindexter asserted that the
giving of the franchise had nothing
to do with individuals sinking a well
two feet from the line between lots,
and Judge Marshall replied that the
edict permitting the company to
maintain" the well blocked Mrs.
Young. He also limited that when the
application for the franchise was
made not all the facts in the case
were before the commissioners. The
board decided that the best way out
of the controversy would be to have
a rehearing at some future day.

Last night Gonzaga college hall
was the scene of an enjoyable and
scholarly entertainment, given by the
students of the college in honor of
the Rev. r. ]. Crimont rector. For the
first time in the history of Spokane
the people were given an opportunity
of listening to a scholastic disputa

The thesis were handled by the
seniors in a manner that surprised
even the older students and pro-
fessors of philosophy. All the par
Elephants acquitted themselves cred
itably and furnished a lively and in
teresting discussion. At one time the
crossfire became so hot that the rev.
erend project of studies was drawn
into the fray, and surprised the audi
ence by rising from his seat in their
midst and turning his heavy artillery
upon Z. P. Twohy the young man
who had won the admiration of all
by his ready and able defense. All
were anxious for the outcome, but the
hero of the evening was nothing
daunted by the unique objections of
Father Collier and quickly found a
weakness in his line of fire.
A worthy production of the trial
scene from THE Merchant of Venice"
was also rendered by the Students of
the first academic class. Although it
was the first effort of the academic
boys of 1903, still it was so success
full that all who attended were ready
to give the highest praise to the boys
who took part. The audience was
large and good natured, as evidenced
by the frequent applause given to the
actors
