Literary San Angelo.

Two years ago an old man,
named Minter. lived somewhere
in the nrighborhood Of San Am
CELLO. and contributed occasionally
a poetic effort to the local papers.
Truthfully speaking, his literary
merit was far from being of II
high order, but yet it is an un-
doubted fact that people felt an
interest in him because of his
hermit-like ways. ! remember
David Gaut telling me that he
had projected an article for the
New York World, to be entitled
"A Texas Hermit, y in which n
Minter, transfgured, was to have
appeared, but, by strange coin
cidence, the next Sunday edition
Of that paper came out with n
wild, untruthful tale of Texas
hermit, supposed to be living near
Fort McKavett. There was also
Il large (and viIe) picture of the
long-haired recluse be-clubbed
and dressed in skins like some
Cain lifted into real life from the
pictured page of an old family
Bible. He stood on n hill over
looking the fertile plains Of Nc
Kavett, ON which grazed long
horned cattle within staked
fences, not at all disconcertlng II
very New rnG and plowman who
piled his art in full view of n lofty
church steeple. The whole made
good reading, and David Gnut
had evidently been struck with
the same idea as the World editor,
and impressed by the conviction
that people dearly love hermit.
Who does not remember the
fascination exercised over the
youthful mind in reading of
Elisha fed by the ravens, Simeon
Stylites on his lofty pillar.
Diogenes in his barrel, and Robin
son Crusoe on his island ut the
mouth of the Orinoco? And
when studying American Litera-
ture, who has not been arrested
by the history of the Brook Farm
experiment, or the ventures of
Amos Bronson Alcott rs told by
his daughter in the story, Grams

career" says Bradford Torrey.
in the introduction to the new
holiday edition Of Walden, In
ward and outward, was straight
as furrow. The principle Of his
life was simplicity,-simplicity
and economy. But his simplicity
was more OF n riddle than another
mans compleXity.'
! have always thought it Il pity
that the ordinary teacher Of liter
allure who has failed to scratch
very deeply below the surface,
laid altogether too much stress
upon Henry David Thoreau' 5
forest experiment and too little
upon his work as poet and
naturalist. | had hopes of an
ideal biography in the recent
work of Mrs. Annie Russell Mar

upon the excellent opportunities
she had had of laying hands upon
new material. The authoress

Most worthy of all praise is the
entirely magnificent book newly
issued from Goodspeed's Merry
mount Press, on "Thoreau the
Poet Naturalist" and written by
his friend William Ellery Chan
ming.
1t is Il thing of beauty for the
Ok-lOver, necessity for the
teacher and student, II welcome
gift for the public library,
and pardonable luxury for all
men. Reading this reprint of an
early book, is like talking with
one who knew Thoreau, for Chan
ming is the poet that Thoreau
mentions in Walden as having
spent II fortnight with him when
"wc made that small house ring
with bOistcrous mirth and re-
/. sound with the murmur Of much

with the Observation-Disclosures which
philosophy requires. " Their
friendship is illustrated in the
fine chapter on walks and talks,
and Channing's intimate knowl-
edge of Thoreau in those ON

Reading is especially rich in ma
