WHEN POE RECITED.
First Public Appearance of tho
WelI-Known Poet Melted Him the
Sum of Six Dollars.

"It was at Mrs. McKenzie's that l
first heard Poe recite, at her request,
The Raven and 'Annabel Lee only
the family being present" says a
writer in Lippincott's Magazine.
From an unusually lively mood he
lapsed at once into manner, express
sion and tone of voice of gloomy and
almost weird solemnity, gazing as if
on something invisible to others, and
never changing his position until the
recitation was concluded. 1t hap
pened that he had just before re-
quested of Mrs. Mckenzie the loan of
a sum of money, which request she
was for a time unable to comply
with; and she now said to him, Ed
gar, what do you think of giving a
public recital of those poems? 1t
would probably prove financial sue
cess The result was that about a
week later there appeared in the city
papers a notice that on a certain
evening the poet would give recita-
ton of his own two favorite poems in
the exchange concert room, tickets
to be had at a certain book store.
Over 200 of these were printed, the
charge of admission being so cents
each.
"On the appointed evening, I, then
a young man of "a, accompanied Mrs.
Julia Mayo Cabell and another lady,
both warm personal friends of Poe
from his childhood, to the place Of
the proposed recitation. We arrived
some moments after the appointed
time, and, to our surprise, found, in
stead of a full audience, but nine per-
sons assembled, we, together with
the usher, making thirteen in num-
Der. Some time elapsed before Poe
made his appearance, when he took
his place on the platform, bowed, and,
resting his hands on the back of a
chair, recited The Raven and Anna
bel Lee but in a mechanical sort of
way, and with a total lack of the
weird and gloomy expression which
had given them such effect at Mrs.
McKenzie's. On concluding, he again
bowed and abruptly left the platform.
"The proceeds of this experiment
was Sc, in consideration of which, Mr..
Boyden, proprietor of the exchange,
would make no charge for the use of
the hall, lights and attendance"

How rennyson Was Recognized.

Things that impress some persons
forcibly are not even noticed by
others. An eminent Scotch surgeon
and professor in the University Of
Edinburgh was entirely devoted to
his profession. The poet Tennyson
had at one time consulted him about
some affection of the lungs. Years
afterward he returned on the same
errand. On being announced, he was
nettled to observe that Mr.. Syme haf
neither any recollection of his facA
nor, still more calling, acquaintance
with his name.
Tennyson thereupon mentioned the
fact of his former visit. Still Syme
failed to remember him. But when
the professor put his ear to the poets
chest and heard the peculiar sound
which the old .ailment had made
chronic, he at once eXclaimed:
"Ah, l remember you now! /
know you by your lung"
Can you imagine a greater humili-
alton for a poet than to be known
not by his Tyre, but by his lung?-N.

Sidney "These gentlemen do not

do not molest us. You will do so at
your peril. Capt. Waters, that man

irons and take him to New Orleans.
Are you the captain of a pirate ship?
This is Mr.. Carmody's yacht, with
ladies aboard. We demand that we

you to do your duty and turn that
man over to the authorities. He is

He dashed the megaphone to the
bridge and lcaped to the lower deck.
Like a flash he jumped to the rapid
fire gun. Capt. Waters yelled an or

came a spit of fire from the muzzle
of the gun. Three of the crew dashed
at Hestor.

A dozen bullets tore through the

seconds was speeding away to the

Mr.. Kent was the first to reach the
side of Sidney Hammond. There was
a stain of red on his shoulder, and
they tore and cut away the coat and
shirt. AS they did so, Sidney opened
his eyes. He stared for moment
and jumped TO his feet.
''It is nothing!" he said, as he took
a long breath. 1T is merely flesh

moment. l am all right"
Sidney laughed, but his face was
white and the blood flowed freely

examined the wound and declared it
painful but not dangerous. He
staunched the flow of blood and
bandaged the wound. Sidney watched
the fast disappearing SHARK" dur
ing this operation. He set his teeth,
and not a groan escaped from his
lips.
The dining-room was strewn with
broken glass and splinters. Ragged
holes had been torn in the decora-
tions, and one shot played havoc
with the china closet. Miss Carmo-
dy came up from below. Her face
was pale, but she did not seem in the
least alarmed. She proceeded to act
as nurse for Sidney, and would not
listen to his declara tion that he was
going on deck. Chalmers regretted
he had not been shot.
In the meantime the "Shark" con-
tinued on it's eastern course, and the
'Helcn Carmody" neared the mouth
of the Mississippi. 1t was seven
o'clock in the evening when they took
a pilot. Sidney was moved to the
forward deck, and all gathered
around him to discuss what had hap
pened.
THAT was about as rapid bit of
work as ever / Witnessed" said Mr..
Kent, who had been slightly cut in
the hand by flying piece of glass.
''Who fired the shot from our
boat?" asked Sidney, with a slight
grimace of pain as his shoulder
twinged where the shot had lacerated
muscle. at was the last thing l

Mr.. Kent, Mr.. Morton and Mr..
Pence were enjoying an afternoon
nap, but they were quickly aroused
and informed of the situation. Simon
Pence was in an agony of terror. His
knees sank beneath him and he was
too agitated to speak. Not so with
Mr.. Kent. His fighting blood was
up in a minute.
Il will shoot that crazy dude full
of holes if he or his men attempt to
fay hands on met" he exclaimed. He
reached into his stateroom and pro-
duced a repeating rife which he ex
amined carefully and calmly.
There were 20 rifles aboard the
yacht. In anticipation of possible
trouble Capt. Baldwin had purchased
a dozen guns at Vera Cruz. These
were distributed among the men and
the crew. Sidney Hammond was put

were placed within easy reach and
they waited the approach of the
SHARK" which was less than a mile
away.
The faces of the men were study.
Hardly n word was spoken. Their
faces were flushed with anger,
rather than pale with fear. In plain
sight was the yacht which had held
them captive for days. They viewed
the "Shark" as a pirate. Not man
doubted that Hcstor was on board,
and that he meant mischief. How
trim and sleek the shark looked
as her prov cut the waves of the
gulf Her brass work glistened like
gold in the afternoon sun. On her
Forward deck was CLINT of polished
steel. Mr.. Kent recognized it.
"There is that rapid-fire gun," he
said in an undertone.
Mr.. Morton bowed, but said moth
ing.
Bernard Seymour examined his gun
methodically. He ran his eye along
the sights and studied the adjust
r1ent for distance. He spoke quietly
to Sidney Hammond, received nod
of approval and went forward, TAX
ing a position near the bow of the
boat.
Capt. Baldwin whistled a signal
that he would go to starboard.
There was no answer from the
"Sharlt." Again the Helen Carmody"
blew a warning blast. In answer the
''Shark" ran up a flag signal asking
the "Ielen Carmody" to LAY to-
Capt Baldwin hesitated a moment.
He then gave the word TO the engr-
neer TO 90 ahead full speed. They
had been running half speed, so as
to avoid any chance OF a collision.
Capt. Baldwin gave a blast to indi-
cate that he would pass the shark
TO leeward The SHARK" slightly
changed its course, and went slowly
ahead parallel to its rival, but grad
ually drawing nearer.
As they came abreast the shark
was not $50 yards away. Those or
the "Helen Carmody" could see Capt,
Waters on the bridge. The crew was
grouped on the forward deck.
a tall, slender figure in yachting
uniform suddenly appeared by the
side Of Capt. Waters. Sidney in.

who raised "a mcgaphonc. His voice
sounded sharp and clear.
