AS Mr.. Howells on this recent occa-
sion entered his library and study,
looking out upon Central park, walk
ling briskly, and with the air of one
much younger in years, and advanced
to meet me with outstretched hands,
il remarked, rising to greet him: "You
have changed but little, Mr.. Howells,
since I saw you last, some twelve
years ago."
sob, but I have changed much. it
seems to me. You see, I am an old
man now-sixty-six years old-and
can hardly be expected to retain the
freshness Of earlier years"
II suppose you are occupied with
your work every day." I said.
"Quite as hard a toiler as years
ago. when you first met me-" he re-
piled. IT expect to work as long as I
live. I would rather do so than rust
out. AS in former years, so now, all
days are alike with me, for have al
ways made it a point to do about so
much with each one, usually working
about four hours. I am obliged to
exercise care, for 7 am not strong.
However, at the first suggestion Of
fatigue I stop. Usually I give my af-
lternoons to outdoor recreation Of a
moderate character; the rest Of my
time I devote to reading and social
pleasure"
you continue to like New York ?"
i remarked.
ooh, yes; 1 regard 1t on the whole
ias the most interesting city in the
lworld-more so than even London or
Paris. T never tire walking it's busy
streets, meeting its people of all
Glasses and nationalities, and studying
it's life in all It's various phases. There
is a peculiar fascination about it that

and sympathetic voice-and you have
the portrait Of the dean Of American
letters.
After time we fell to discussing
certain Of the present-day writer's, and
some of the books that have made
for prominence in recent years.
i think there Is an enduring quality
In David Harum,' and also in 'Eben
Holden both true to life, and show
ing an enrichment Of our literature.
In James Lane Allen we must recog-
nize a remarkable writer, possessing
a charm that holds us.
No, the historical novel does not
appeal to me. It all seems SO un-
natural. It cannot become a perman-
ent force, 1t seems to me, in our
literature
you have so much for which to
congratulate yourself, Mr.. Howells,"
I observed. you have been such a
tanned an eminence such as few can
hope to realize"
From the outside, she replied, "all
my experiences We're literary, and yet
to rise to a literary career was difficult
in the extreme. Like most who APP
pfOaCh the threshold or authorship,
found the doors closed to me. The
profession Of letters is quite as diff
cult to enter as any other; perhaps
more So"
1T seems strange, Mr.. Howells, that
you should have had any such expert
ence."
"Oh but it IS all too true. My work
came back to me repeatedly, and as
often I was filled with encouragement;
and yet with each period of depres-
sion T would hope on-always hoping.
But, after time, there came an
oasis in my desert. In my early TWEEN
ties, in conjunction with a friend of
mine, who has since won literary
fame-John J. P1att-I published a
volume Of verse that gave me some
reputation, so much so, in fact, that
Mr.. Lowell became interested in my
work, and wrote me several en-
! couraging letters, and published some

OF my poems In the Atlantic Monthly,
or which he was then editor. AS a
youth, however, at home, my ambition
had been absorbing. Hoping and as
plrlng, these We're the measures Of my
days; yes, and my nights.
When not assisting my father, who
was country editor, at the printers
case. and In other ways, I was O. stu
Gent IN mis- library, meagre enough,
put II was a university to me. I
studled the best authors, making my
SELF familiar with their thought and
Sty!e. MY study was made in a nook
under the stairs in that room, my
desk being pushed back against the
wall Where the Irregular ceiling sloped
behind 1t. At the left there was a
window serving to furnish light. Here,
as literary artisan, read and
studied and wrought with my pen in
odd hours for some six or seven years.
It was a good experience. It was
delightful to go to that little study
after the necessary tasks of the day
were over and sit down to my books
and my pen. I used often to stay
there until the household had gone
to bed.
Years after came legislative duty
at the state capital, with more Of the
printers drudgery, while later still in
return for service in the presidential
campaign humble biographer of
Lincoln received the happy and
coveted appointment to the consulship
at Venice, where resided for period
OF four years. And here rejection
met me in my every effort to secure a
foothold in authorship. Certain let
tiers of literary character that I had
sent over to this country for accept
ance We're declined. Z was defeated at
every turn. And thus it was, on my
return to America, I was without liter
airy reputation. I came to New York
and obtained modest editorial work,
and, later, the way opened for the
publication of my letters from Venice.
These were successful, and in time I
was invited by Mr.. Fields to become
his assistant on the Atlantic Monthly.
But until then how great had been my
struggle!
perience, these hardships and bitter
has ever been an enjoyable thing, pre-
cious In the extreme. When now go
out into the open air on a bright day
for a stroll I rejoice that have al
ways appreciated how good it is to
live. And always feel that such days
as I have spoken Of must stay So
always. There Is only one thought
that comes to cause me sadness and
regret, and that is relating to the ter
rible struggle Of modern life for ex-
istence. And it always seems to me
that every one ought to be more or
less troubled by this reflection. The
struggle appears to be growing more
intense each hour; yes, more bitter,
even. You see it everywhere, this
people crowding each other in order
to obtain position, even subsistence.
And there arises the question:: When
and where will 1t end ?''

to every one occupied with intellec-

worker here is brought into more or
less intimate relations with others Of
his profession and there Is a certain
stimulus resulting therefrom that Is
most helpful. A writer living in New

WORK PUSHED
ON THREE THEATERS
THE ORPHEUM rs NEAREST
COMPLETION.
No Delay in the Work on the UNIQUE
Theater and the Auditorium The
Northwestern National Bank Build
Ing Completed - Building Deals of
the Week.

Three theaters building at one time
IS an unusual event in Minneapolis.
The Orpheum, on Seventh street. is
nearest completion; foundation work
is just beginning on the Auditorium.
and the Unique theater and Peoples
church has just reached the digging
stage after razing of the building on
the site.
At the Orpheum theater the rear
wall Is up to the second story, the
stage is outlined and the steel pillars
for the support of the balcony are be-
ing set The columns for the facade
are being put in place. The heavy
part of the work is done and con-
struction will proceed much more
rapidly in the future.
The former bishops house son the
rear OF the auditorium site has been
torn down and teams are hauling
away the dirt. The excavation for
the office building is prepared. the
rock has been dumped in and the con-
crete mixer is being set up today.
The excavation will run clear back to
the lot line, 220 feet from Eleventh
street. The trees have been spared
IN II, the square garden plot at the
Eleventh street corner and at the cor
ner toward Twelfth street. 1t is the
purpose to save as many as possible to
ornament the two little gardens.
The H. N. Leighton company has
everything ready for foundation work
at once and no delay in completing
the Two buildings is expected.
Ihe work on the Unique theater,
altho late in starting, will be pushed
rapidly and possibly may be finished
about the same time as the other two
large buildings.
The Northwestern National bank
buildings Is completed. The interior
IS not completed, but it will take only
q snort time to finish the bank rooms
proper and little longer to finish
the offices for tenants. No money
has been spared to make the building
just what it should be and it is solid
enough to stand for ages.
Particular attention has been paid
to the comfort Of employees and to
tilation.
