FROM the Atlantic.
Hawthorne and Emerson were neighhors

gether In Concord they discussed the
weather and the crops, but not philosophy.
nor religion. nor politics Oftener they
were silent. as great men, who know each
other as such, can afford to be. Tennyson
and Carlyle once sat together of an evening
for three hours, smoking, and neither ut
tering word. except Caryle's good night:
Come again, Alfred: we have had a grand
time. This aloofness from men, and at
the same time that power of dragging to
light the hidden secrets of their souls is
the inexplicable gift of genius; II has an
eye of Its own; one glance and 1t looks the
man through and through
Had Hawthorne lived anywhere where
conscience and law had full recognition and
sin was possible, he would have written in
the same strain-as in The Marble Faun
where Donatello serves his purpose as well
as Dimmesdale. The crime and its effect
in each belong to the general field of
ethics, where sin reveals its nature in soul
experiences that are common to all men.
Indeed, he has but one deep and permanent
interest: the play of conscience under sin.
He is student of the SOUL He watches
it's play as biologist watches an animal
under varying conditions: but In each case
IL is the study of soui-not degraded
but only wounded, as 1t were, and while
1t Is keen to feel. and while the good and
evil In it are full of primal energy.

INTERIOR OF STATE is FOR 1T
Will Urge Improvement of the Chan
mel of the Mississippi River.

No doubt Rock Island will be well
represented at Dubuque this fall at
the annual convention of the Upper
Mississippi River Improvement asso-
citation. The convention promises to
be the most largely attended meeting
of the association since agitation for
the Improvement of the river was in
augurated. Governors of five states
will attend and also Il number of other
distinguished men.
The sessions will be held at the Du-
buque club and every effort will be
eXerted for the accommodation of the
visitors. The convention will be in
session three or four days and much
important business will be transacted.
The association will ask congress to
appropriate $l5000,0O0 for the i'm
provement of the river from Cairo to
the twin-cities. What is wanted is a
siX-fOOt channel that will insure a
standard stage of water the year
around. The complaint of the assOcia-
ton is that the stage of water becomes
so low in the fall that the packets are
forced to tie up, while the river is still
open and business that should go to
the river is diverted to the railroads
This condition, it is argued. must be
relieved or there Will be total demorali-
cation of the packet business.
For several years shippers in the
interior of Iowa have opposed the
plan of the association for river i'm
provement, as they believed that with
a siX-fOot channel the river town job
bers would have a decided advantage
over them in the matter of cheaper
freight rates. However, during the
last year they have changed front and
at its last session the state legislature
memOrialized congress to make the
S15,000,O00 appropriation for the i'm
prOyement of the river.

too far away for the men TO go and

For the past two or three summers
it has been the custom each Sunday
for different companies of the Chicago
regiments to run out TO the range,
which is only an hours ride, and
spend the day in target practice. and
as is we'll known To national guards
men throughout the state, there are
some very fine marksmen among the
Chicago companies.
1t is believed that the 9th regiment
will refuse TO enter the state regimen
tai competition, knowing that the Chi
cago riflemen have already had three
months practice this season, and are
well prepared to win any contest that
takes place. The same feeling seems
to exist among all the country regi-

merely for the Chicago regiments to
