verse-its essence, origin, creation,
present condition and destiny. Short
ly afterward this was published by
Putnam under the title Eureka. Z
After quoting the paragraphs from
Eureka in which Poe sums up his
theory of cosmic development, Mr..
Bond says:
"The statement of Poe that 'hetero-
geneousness, brought about directly
through condensation. is proportional
with it forever appears to contain the
germ Of Herbert Spencer's developed
formula: Evolution is change from
an indefinite, incoherent hOmogeneity
to a definite, coherent heterogeneity
through continuous differentiations
and integrations.' Noteworthy, also,
is Poe's statement of the correlation
between mental development and
physical organization"
After a thorough investigation and
consideration of Poes theory Mr..
Bond concludes that:
I'm it's important features, Eureka
is a perversion of the modern doctrine
of evolution In the statements that
the universe is in perpetual lux,
that it is now evolving and will in the
future dissolve, that it has developed
from a condition of homogeneity, and
that our own system sprane from a
nebula, Poe is in accord with the
Spencerian philosophy and very prob
ably with the actual facts; while IN
the assertions that the earth has, dur
ing successive geological ages, pro-
duced a higher and higher organic life
characterized by an ascending deVel-
opment of mind, hand in hand with an
increasing complexity of the physical
organization, he is stating what are
now known to be simple sclentlhc
facts. Erroneous, of course, the de-
tails of his conceptions very frequent
" are; but this is common to him
with the pioneers of every great idea.
Only in the course of time does the
germ of truth attain its full growth
and reveal its true character. 10
criticise Eureka from a contempt
rary standpoint would be as beside
the mark as to treat the 'Naturphiloso-
phie' of Schelling or of Hegel in the
same way. 1t was remark OF John
P. Kennedy, Poe's old friend, that the
latter wrote like an old Greek phil
osopher' and any one who reads the
fragments of the Greek thinkers be-
fore Aristotle can easily verify for
himself the truth and aptness of the
statement The merits of Poe, in
common, more or less, with the other
e-Spencerian evolutionists lie in

cially of Londoners, for Dickens, II
was nearly 40 years after his death
he died, it will be remembered, in
1870-before a memorial of any kind
was erected to his memory in the Brit
ish capital. This memorial is sim
pie portrait bust, with bronze tablet,
and was placed upon the site of Fur
nivaPs inn, Holburn. 1t was at Fur
nlval's inn that Dickens wrote Pick
wick" and it was there. in a little
room on the third floor, that he awoke
one morning, in 1886, to find himself
famous.
Poes failure of election to the Hall
Of Fame is another very real griev-
ance to many of his countrymen, but
parallel, in a way, to this situation,
too. may be found oversee. Last No
vember the authorities of the British
museum undertook to select 10 names
as the greatest and most representa-
tive in English literature to be paint
ed on 10 panels in the reading room
Of the British museum. 1t was no
easy task but the names finally set
tied upon by the trustees of the mu-
scum were: Chaucer, Caxton, Tin
dale, Spenser, Shakespeare, Bacon
Milton, Locke. Addison, Swift, Pope
Gibbon, Wordsworth, Scott, Byron
Carlyle. Macaulay, Tennyson and
Browning.
This selection, of course, by no
means met with universal commenda-
ton. On the contrary, loud cries of
complaint and inquiry were heard
from all over the country as soon as
it was announced. Where was Dick
ems? Where was Thackeray? Where
was Robert Burns? Where were
Dryden, Johnson and Burke9-and, to
continue: Where were Fielding, Shell
ley. Blake, Richardson, Butler and
Ruskin? And where, asked George
Bernard Shaw, in a stern and
wrathful tone, was Bunyan?
Thus we see that other national
households besides our own have
trouble in arranging their literary
treasures to suit all the members of
the family
No one, perhaps, could speak with
more authority on the subject of Poe
Stedman, himself poet, the writer
of a delightful life of Poe, and one
of the hundred electors to the Hall
of Fame. In the August number of
the North American Review he said:
If the vote for Cooper gave cause
for wonder, what of the insufficient
tally score for Poe, whose names prob
ably will never cease to be vexed by a
willing class of followers, but concern
ing whose place in imaginative litera-
ture the world at large has not the
slightest doubt? As a writer he
was among the first to recognize the
powers of Hawthorne; both were
idealists, and if one produced no sus-
tanned romances like THE Scarlet Let
ter" the other gave voice to no lyric
melodies such as 'Israfel' and THE

whipped over ever stream In that
vicinity and the result was he
brought several hundred blue rib
bon spec mems OF trout home with
him also catching enough to supply
The larder while In camp. He says,
Notwithstanding the many grayling
which are numerous In the McKen-
zie. the trout fishing is excellent,
and his only regret was that there
were not enough pleasure seekers
around tho'e parts TO consume tho
number OF the speckled beauties he
could have ealily captured with his
trusty rod and line. He has no spe-
clal grievance against the hungry
grayllng fish, but the manner IN
which they became so familiar with
his bait, was real aggravating. Rauh
