Buffalo. March 4.-Tho finger of po-

mystery is pointing toward a woman
whose home is in the Elmwood dis

ment since the tragedy was given out
yesterday by superintendent Bull. He
announces that a woman is suspected;
that the motive has been established,
and that In due time there will be an
arrest. The cautious manner in which
the police are moving is undoubtedly
due to the expectation that when the
woman is arrested a stubborn legal
battle will follow. The social promi-
nence of the victim and Of those who
will be dragged into the case later on
calls for extreme caution on the part

 Most of us are inclined to regard the contemplative Hindoo as dream CT, quasi idler who will never ac- complish much in the world. We feel that our volcanic energy lifts us away above the contemplative spirit and puts us on higher plane. We are proud of our ceaseless activity. But there are few who think we might swap little of our nervous activity for measure of the oriental's con- templative spirit with advantage to both. Material America needs no stimulus" says Hamilton w. Mabie, tits triumph is already at hand. It is spiritual America that needs constant revelation and definition; and it is to be the high service of the literature of the future, as it has been the service of the literature ot the past, to hold the ideal of this mob.

ing with his man, to say, for a long PERIOD
inclined to take a sympathetic view of him We
do not blame Mr.. Boynton for wanting to make
the best of Pope as a man, and moreover, not
only is the passage just quoted reasonable
enough but the general drift of the essay from
which We take it is sound. At the same time
cannot agree with the judgment that, in the
case of Pope, the failings were on the whole
upon less significant plane than the virtues"
The more significant plane must, of course. be
that on which this poet seems, when all is said,
most himself-the plane on which We recognize
his prevailing tone; and We think Mr.. Boynton
would be hard put to it to show that Pope's
writings. which snguarly representative of
the spirit of a lifetime, convey the impression of
an essentially magnanimous man. Byron also
was tOrmented by the consciousness of a bodily
infirmity, but Byron remained. we said last
Sunday in speaking of Don juan" a pro-
foundly honest writer. Pope was scarcely that;
the very fat that only the most minute analysis
will serve to separate the gold from the drOss IN
his nature and in his work shows the shifty ele
ment which predominated in both. He was,
we are told says Mr.. BoyntOn, malicious,
penurious, secretive, unchiYalrous, undetermined,
implacable." The phrase I'VE told might
just we'll have been omitted from this sem
tence. Pope all of these things and it is
impossible to blink the fact. If emphasize
it it is not for the sake of throwing one more
stone at the acidulated little man of genius, but
simply for the purpose of noting that. out of

Why is it that his translation of Homer is not

new lines. He promises to give US Dryden and
Byron, who not now available in good single
volume form; he has arranged for a book OF
English and Scottish Popular Ballads edited
by Helen Child Sargent and George L. Kit
tredge, who peculiarly well qualified to con-
dense in this way the fruits of the late Pro
fessor ChiId's labors making the public free of
precious material which not every one can afford
to obtain in the monumental work of their
master; and in the mean time he gives us the
works of Pope. admirably edited by Mr.. Boyn-
ton. Never before has the complete verse of
Alexander the Great Craftsman been con-
yeniently presented. The volumes in which the
we'll known English edition dragged its SLOW
length along will continue to occupy their non
orable position upon the shelves of the deVotee
of Pope, but even that enthusiast, and GER
tainly the general reader, will rejoice at the
privilege of reading the works in a really handy
FORM
Only a week ago we had occasion to traverse
the masterpiece of Byron. 1t is interesting to
turn from him to his great predecessor in wit
and metrical felicity, for in making the transit
ton one is led the urgently to reflect
certain of the broader aspects of poetic genius.
Both Byron and Pope were born technicans.
but if the one could be excessive in conformity TO
an ideal of the correct, and the other could be,
on occasion, slovenly to the point of license.
neither was determined in mis- attitude by the
influence of purely poetic considerations. To
think of the two together for moment is to
realize in renewed force the power of personal
ity. IT did not need the pageant of his bleeding
heart to make Byrons poetry seem the express
sion of his individual character The bone and
snew of the the bone and snew of his
work, and every line he wrote quivers with his
indomitable spirit. Some writer of the future
will have an amusing task before him in the
composition of entirely unnecessary but very
readable essay filled with speculation as to how
it happened that poet of Byrons volcanic in
spiration could have achieved such mastery of
form. The essayist treating of Pope or the
