Memorials For Poe and Randall.

The late James R. Randall was a
son of Maryland, native and to the
manner born. Edgar Allan Poe was
an adopted son. 1t has been sug-
gested that the bodies of these gifted
men be buried in Baltimore in the
same mausoleum. This suggestion
is prompted by a worthy sentiment,
but it's appropriateness is open to
question.
Poe died in Baltimore on October
z, 1S49, and his body was buried in
this city. His grave, often neglected
and perhaps forgotten at times, ex-
cept by a few faithful admirers of his
genius, has long been a reproach to
Baltimore. There is To- in existence
an association organized for the pur-
pose of rearing in this city an ade-
quate memorial of Poe. This monu-
ment should commemorate the great
ness of Poe alone, for reasons which
are obvious and convincing. Edgar
Allan Poe was not only a poet of the
highest rank-pronounced, indeed, by
some eminent European men of let
tiers the greatest poetic genius the
United States has ever produced-but
he was also a master in the field of
fiction and a literary critic of power
and distinction. For these reasons,
therefore, he is entitled to a separate

prosperity was toasted in the evening

Then it was thrown open finally to
public travel.
Just at midnight two five-car trains
started simultaneously from the Man
haitian and Hoboken terminals. In
mid-river, ten or twelve fathomS I'M

motormen pulled cords aud SEM shrill
blasts of celebration through the long
steel tubes. Their passengers cheered
and shook hands with one another
and boosted of American genius and
daring.
Though neither the whistles nor
cheers reached from one train to the
other, they were passing, separated
only by a few yards of earth. The
long-dreamed-of route from State to
State was at last a tangible thing to
the travellers. They had to make the
trip before they could believe it. And
here they were!
Five minutes after they passed the
red, white and blue circle of lights
marking the line between the States
they were alighting in bright, new
stations. The woes OF committing

In sending MI. Bryce as our Am
bassador to Washington King Ed
ward has but followed the example
of the Americans themselves, who
are not of opinion that long training,
on our lines, is essential to the pro-
duction of a good diplomatist. Very
few, if any, of the present or past
American representatives in foreign
capitals have gone through the dip
lomatic mill, and, on the whole, the
United States Government has been
well served by the men whom it
sends abroad. On the other hand,
there have been several fragrant in
stances of failure. Even Motley, the
historian of the Dutch republic, got
into terrible hot water at Vienna,

in London ended in another differ

One Way.

4 story, said to be Characteristic,
is told of an Arkansas judge. 1t
seems that when he convened court
at one of the towns or his circuit it
was found that no pens, ink or paper
had been provided, and, upon inquiry
1t developed that no county funds
were available for this purpose. The
Judge expressed himself somewhat
forcefully, then drew some money
from his own pocket. He was about
to hand this to the clerk, when a Wis
fling lawyer, a high priced, imported
article, brought on to defend a case
Of some importance, spoke up, in an
aside plainly audible over the room.
WELL" he remarked, with infinite
contempt, 1--WE seen some pretty bad
courts, but this-well, this is the linn
it,"
The old Judge flushed darkly.
"You are fined twenty-five dollars
for contempt, sir! Hand the money
to the clerk!" he said; when the POM
pous visitor had humbly complied, he
continued:
Nov, Mr.. Clerk, go out and get
what pens, ink and paper the court
may require, and if there is anything
left over, you can give the gentleman
his change."-Harper's Weekly.

began eating it every morning, also
gave it to the children, including my

as fat as a little pig, good natured
and contented.
