THE LITERARY OUTLOOK
"reminiscences of Newspaper Men-Miss TarbeII Points
Out Field for the Greatest American Novel,
School of Authorshp-NeW Books
BY HERBERT BREWSTER

The "reminiscences of Newspaper men
who, through their lahors in many
lands, have come in touch with many
of the worlds notables, always make
interesting reading. No doubt those
who are reading a series of sketches by
M. De Blowitz appearing serially in
one periodical or a collection of rem
iniscent articles by George w. Small
ley in another, will testify to the truth
of this statement. 1t is to be hoped
that both of these admirable sets of
articles will be brought out in book
form during the year. Curiously
enough, one of the best stories which
Mr.. Smalley tells is about another cor
respondent, perhaps the greatest of
them all, Archibald Forbes.
The one feat which, in Mr.. Smalley's
opinion, placed Forbes at the head of
his profession came in the Russo-Tur-
kish War of 1877. Although seven of
the Cars couriers failed to get
through Shipka Pass, Forbes did it,
and after giving the Gar his informa-
ton and being complimented on his
skill and daring, Forbes rode, without
stopping for rest 100 miles to Buchar-
est. He arrived at o'clock in the
evening. He had been three days and
nights either in the saddle or in the
Shipka trenches, under fire, without
sleep, often without food. 4 was dead
tired said Forbes, from whose lips L
had this story. Not a word of nv
dispatch was written, and l had news
for which I knew the world was wait
ing-news on which the fate of an en-

power. the peculiar influence that he
had charged me with, had ended with
the cessation of his life. My power
and his had died out at one and the
same instant.
1 gave brief directions for the dead
mans funeral and went out, leaving
him alone-Rollpiller, the Magician.
l had not forgotten what I had to
do. Next morning 1 drew out all that
we had made and distributed it among
dozen brokers, as margin, of course,
for 1 knew 1 had a sure thing. l in
structed them to buy up all the C. r.
and A. that they could find for sale,
and hold it for my account to wait the
rise. 1 had figured on the prOba BILE
amount of stock that was for sale, TAX
ing the figures furnished at the confer
ence, and calculated that / stood in to
make not less than $2,OO0,O0O.
Ny brokers bought c. T. and A. and
held it for a rise. The rise didn't
come. Instead there was a slump in
the stock, and it fell steadily and with
rapidity. On the following day my
margin was exhausted. Fortunately
l was too cautious to deposit any
more, and 1 held on to the T., 1000
that 1 had saved. So l let the thing
slide, and in that deal l lost all that
we had made on the first one-$150,-
900.
Two weeks later the stock jumped
up sky-high, and a few days after
that it was announced that the North
ern had bought up the control Of The
c. T. and A.
Later on l learned from a man on
the street, a man on the inside who
claimed to know the facts, that the
c. 7. and A. people would have forced
the issue two weeks before they did
but for the fact that the presence of
a reporter was detected at a. most inn
portant meeting. So, in order to keep
the outsiders off the scent. the deal
had been postponed. l was the re-
porter, and-hang it'll might have
known.
My blunder had cost me millions.
Still, there was one consolation. II
l had not made, still had not lost.
And, away and beyond that, the
memory of Rollpiller, the magician, is
still with me-Rollpiller and his won
derful scheme.

Mr.. Smalley is still actively connect
ed with the London Times. NJ. De
BloWltz, according to very recent re-
port, has retired from his connection
with the same paper, after a service
extending over more than twenty
years. 1t is doubtful if any other
single newspaper correspondent ever
welded so much power as M. De
Blowitz did during his most active
period. His "reminiscences are the
most sober fact, vet they read like a
series of the most highly improbable
romances in which royalty and diplo-
matists of many nations figure. When
he took up his residence in France
nearly fifty years ago, De Blowitz was
teacher of German. Afterwards he
invented a wool cardng machine and
now and then wrote for the French
newspapers. He took a considerable
part in the exciting times of the early
seventies and when he began his work

Hobart Chatfield-Taylor, author of
THE Crimson Wing" makes a serious
proposal to establish schools of fic-
ton, after the fashion of schools of
art. Let the masters take pupils and
teach them the elements of novel writ
ing, he suggests.
What sort of pictures" writes this
author, would a man turn out who,
having provided himself with a box of
colors. an easel and a canvas, sat dFwn
to paint with no more knowledge of his
craft than can be gained from looking
al art exhibitions and reading the opin-
ions of a few critics? But that is the
task young writer must set for HIM
self. He has a dictionary. a desk and
a pad of paper, and he can go to a
library and look at books or to be
more exact, consult tIem; but suppose
Mr.. Howells should really take the
time to instruct him, would he not
learn in year-what otherwise ne
might not in a lifetime-the principles
of his art, the technique? Drawing,
perspective, composition, color, light
and shade, all the elements of the
painters craft can be taught. Pre-
cisely the same elements enter into
novel writing, the difference being that
the painter touches the heart through
the eye and the novelist through the
mind. 1t may be said that. writers are
born, not made. So are painters. But
how many master painters of to-day
would be painting even tolerably we'll
if they had been turned loose in
a picture gallery with canvas and a
box of colors?
instruction in fiction writing would
improve the mediocre and perfect the
good; 1t would not, of course, make
the hopelessly bad even mediocre. L
know of but one example of my the
DRY, and a fairly good example it is.
Guy de Maupassant was taught to
write by Gustave FIaubert For years
he was not permitted to publish, and
his crude efforts We're torn up time
and again, but finally he sprang full
armed upon the world. Flaubert used
to talk to him somewhat like this:
You see that cab horse across the
street; there is just one word in the
French language to describe his atti-
tude. Find it,
If we young writer's who are groping
away in the darkness of our own ig-
norance could only go to a Flaubert
and have our manuscripts torn up, if
we could only be made to find the one
word, there would be fewer books in
the world, but 1 believe there would
be more masters of technique like GUY
de Maupassaut."

=. w. Townsend. of Chimmie Fad
den fame, has just completed a novel
of Western and New York life. which
will be published in book form early
next month. The story is quite dire,
ent from anything which Mr.. Town.
send has done heretofore. involving a
set of people who win out in tha
struggle for wealth in the west and
come to New York to live. The finsn.
cial success of the principal Western
character is clouded by an injustice to
the family of an old friend, so that
the play of conflicting emotions
throughout the course of the story
makes worthy subject of treatment
in the study of character. Those who
have read the entire manuscript saw
that the picture of life in New York
city is unusually good. This judgment
is just what one would expect from
Mr.. Townsend. The novel ought to
have considerable sale.
