The first publication OF the Vasar Society,
established in London for the reproduction or
drawings by the old masters has Just reached
American subscribers. 1t is portfolio Of TWEEN
ty-six plates made by a process which gives an
extraordinarily close rendering of the originals.
These are mounted large sheets of thick
paper and are accompanied by scholarly notes
from various hands. Pisanello. Veronese, the
HoIbeins Timoteo VIII, Leonardo and Raphael
are among the artists illustrated The speci-
mems chosen are mostly unfamiliar to the anna
teur if not, in fact, inaccessible to him in any
other form. For this reason, to say nothing OF
the intrinsic interest of the drawings, the port
folio may be regarded as cheap at the subscrip-
ton price of a guinea, even with the small
charges for duty and transportation added. The
Vasari Society has only to keep on as it has
begun in order to prove an Indispensable in
stitution We may note here, too, that the
Arundel Club similar scheme for the repro
duction Of paintings promises to demonstrate
that it is equally useful. The first years port
folio was little disappointing, the photographs
not having been very we'll made, but the second

altogether satisfactory. 1t embraces Italian

The English critic has surprisingly often had
a weakness for the writings of Walt Whitman.
A recent article In the London Saturday Re
view" gives another good example OF the appre-
ciative way in which he has been handled across
the Atlantic. But that his limitations still
clearly realized is shown by the following sug-
gestive passage:
within the range of poetry every object under the
sun. His failure, such as II was lay IN the IaGt
that this attempt was too much for him, that u
was made too early in the day. 1t is, Of course,
that motor (sayl are beautiful objects ana
to back UP this theory by assuming or working
up an emotion which Is not really felt. The object
must really cause the emotion before the poem
be written. Whitman's theory that everything
in America must be glorious was his snare; because
to great extent it was theory and nothing more;
bric-a-brac make precisely the same mistake from

ception was In advance of his genuine emotionS

emotions, we must admit. from very unpronlising
material. Our quarrel then with Whitman is not
upon the ground that he includes what Is of itself

It possible for the Board Of Public

PROF, BURGESS xeREssioN AZ
BERLIN UNIVERSITY NOT
PLEASING TO RoosE-
Welt.

WASHINGTON, Nov. LINE senC-
ments expressed by Prof. John W.
Burgess, the first incumbent Of the
Theodore Roosevelt professor ship of
American history and instruction at
the University Of Berlin, last satur-
day. in which, in effect, he declared
that the Monroe Doctrine Is almost
obsolete in the United States, are
not those held by the administration.
At the White House 1t was said that
Professor Burgess is simply n private
citizen holding no official position
from this government. His obserya-
lions regarding the Monroe Doctrine,
it was said. were simply an expression
of his own personal views, which are
dramatically opposite to those held
by the administration and the Ameri-
can people.
Professor Burgess is dean Of Co
Iumbla University and.the first incum-
bent Of the Theodore Roosevelt pro-
fessorship of American history and in
sttucton at the University Of Berlin.
Emperor William was present on Sat
urday when Professor Burgess made
his opening address.
Some OF the Berlin newspapers
prominently displayed Professor Bur-
CESS remarks concerning the Monroe
Doctrine, seemingly attributed signifi-
canoe to them.
Professor Burgess said:
"rhere are, for example, two doc.
trines in the policy Of the United
States which are regarded almost as
holy doctrines, the discussion Of which
may not even be proposed by a foreign
power without risk Of awakening hos
tlity in the United States. These are
the high protective tariff theory and
the Monroe Doctrine. Our politicians
do not appear to have the least notion
Tat both of these doctrines are al
most obsolete. and that the reconstrn"'
ton of European States and their con-
stitutiOns and the acceptance by the
United States itself OF its position rs
world power have made them botk
nearly senseless."
Professor Burgess preceded his adj
dress by reading letter from Prest'
dent Roosevelt, dated October -, In
which the President wrote:
"Alow me. through you, to greet
the University OF Berlin with the
heartlest good will. The historical
friendship between Prussia and the
United States ana then, after Prussia
ha4 founded the German Empire. be-
tween This mighty empire and the Uni
ted States has never been broken nor
even shaken, in the least"
The rector of the university, Pre-
fessOr Kafton. thanked Professor Bur-
ges, and referred appropriately to
President Roosevelts. message to the
university and the Emperor's presence
and proposed three cheers for the EN-
peror.
Willie the cheering was still in FROG
ress the Emperor rose and said:
Fellow students: Let us express
our thanks for what has been express
cd 50 eToQuenly by accepting the Of
fered hand which has been extended
to us from America and by giving a
cheer for the man who is the incqrna-
ton Of the good qualities of HIS people
President Roosevelt, Hurrah! lIu-
rah! Hurrah."
The members of the Emperor's suite.
the professors and the students re-
sponded vigorously.
