JUST ONE HEROIC FIGURE

One solitary redeemlug figure with a glister of herOism stands out from what Jerome calls ''ths battle of the tenderloin" now Waging in the crimin- al court of New York City,-the fragile form of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw. What ever her past may have been she has displayed in a marvellous degree the possession of nerve and loyalty,-two heroic attributes of tallible humanity.
 Enough has been proven of Stanford White, though the story is probably exaggerated, to entwine his artistic fame with moral intsmy. The mother who sold the girl, or supinely allowed her to run to ruin, and then helped to blacken her name, staggers ordinary conceptions of yitiatiOn. Thaw is a weak-minded degenerate. The girl alone offers inducement to sympathy.
 With a better mother and better as- sociations Evelyn NeSbit would no doubt have been something far better that an incentive to crime.

CHAPTERS BUMPED AGAIN

Another blow at the railroad bene- factors of the republic was struck a short time ago, when some congress sional meddlerS discovered that in weighing mail to fix the compensation of the railroads for carrying it the weighing was done for seven days and then the total divided by six to obtain che daily average.
 Nobody was able to explain who in- vented this wonderful device for swell {ng the compensation of the railroads but it had prevailed for many years. The house committee on post offices and post roads ordered the department 70 employ the true diviSor hereafter.
 The painful feature of this episode is that the railroads were hoist by their own petard. The supervision of mail transportation is in charge of one Madden, third assistant postmaster general, who has been trying for Sev- eral years to prove that the annual postal deficiency is caused by the low rate on printed periodicals. Victor Murdock, the redheaded congressman from Wichita, Kansas, began an in Vestigation of some details Of the post office department, which seemed to have been overlooked for a good while, and made the discovery about the weighing steal He also ascertained that the railroads receive nearly three times as much for carrying mails as they do for carrying express matter of che same weight.
 As a consequence the railroads and sheir friend Madden have been set back little.

HENRY WADSwORTH IONGfEIIOw

II. ". Longiellow, the great Ameri- can poet, was born one hundred years ago Wednesday, in Portland, Me. His father was au eminent lawyer. When B years of age the future poet was sent to private school. When l3 he wrote "Venice, an Italian Song" His first published poem was "The Battle of Lovell's Pond, D" and not Mr. Fin ney's Turnip" as so many believe. At l5 he entered Bowdoin college, and graduated at IS. To please his father he tried to study law, but disliked the profession, and at l9 went to Europe to complete his literary studies. When 24 he married, and when in Europe the second time bis wife died. He re- turned to become professor of modern languages in Harvard University. In lS43 he again married; but his second wife died in 1861. There were six children from the second marriage. He dled March 24, 1882.
 Most of the poems written by him when a child or youth had nature for their theme; and there is no doubt his Autumn" vas influenced by BrySnt's "Thanatopsis," which had appeared B short time before. After visiting Europe he vas deeply imbued with the spirit of romance; and his mission seemed to be to bring to the stten' ton of Americans the beauties of for sigu literature. He made trauslati0ns of German, French, Spanish, Danish, and even the FinniSh languages. Nc wsa aa interpreter TstheF than . creator.
 His writings were eoloTed somewhat by his surroundings, While they do not show great intellectual depth or passion, they show a spontaneous ease and grace, and always manifest great poetic feeling. "HsappreciAted every thing in it's beautiful side" Long fellows genius was almost feminine in it's aeIibility and quality and he vas a writer for tho home, full of sweet morality and tender feeling. His poems on slavery lack the ferVor of LoWell's or Whittisr's, though he vas always optimistic.
