THE MopEsTY OF VICTOR HUGO.
Great French Poet and Author Was
Aware of His Own Merit.


M. Capponi, the "doyen' of the Ital-
ian newspaper correspondents at Paris
is publishing his "reminiscences. One
of his best stories relates to Victor
Hugo, on whose eightieth birthday he
called to present the homage of the
foreign press:
we entered Che writes) and found
Victor Hugo seated in a great arm
chair, as on throne, surrounded by
his literary court. He welcomed us
with kindly smile lighting up his
robust face framed in thick, white
beard. ] felt little nervous, but, col
lecting my courage, recited the COM
pliment / had SO carefully rehearsed
told him that the correspondents of
the foreign newspapers wished to as
sociate themselves in the homage
which the entire French nation was
paying to him as the greatest living
poet and the greatest living author.
Victor Hugo, when l had finished, took
hold of my arm and said, giving it a
friendly squeeze: i am quite of your
opinion
"And we withdrew" M. Capponi
concludes, only too pleased to think
that Victor Hugo shared our opinion
of his merits"
