flock of nearly 100 sheep were burned
alive. In the immediate vicinity Of
Millersburg, in Presque Isle county
alone, the losses are estimated at $780,
900. Other districts where bad forest
fires are reported are in the neighbor-
hood of Elmira, Gaylord, and johann
nesburg, in Otsego county; Cadillac,
Wexford county; Grayling, Crawford
county, where 100000 trees planted by
the state forestry commission, were de-

forest fires are reported around Sault

destroyed with as many more threat

He strove to imbue the boys with his own

degree Pater sought ordination at the
hands Of the Bishop OF London, but his
former friend Mcqueen wrote to the Bishop
to tell him Of Pater's apostasy and ordi-

at the moment against Mcqueen. he ulti-
mately came to recognize that his old friend
had acted rightly. In 1854 Pater was fortu-

his knowledge OF German philosophy. to

Pater now turned his attention once moro
to literature, though 80 far as the present
biographer has been able to ascertain he
never again attempted verse. None Of his
prose writings. produced during his early
Brasenose period. seems to have been pro-
sorvod. except an interesting study en-
titled DidphanSik. This was his first i'm

taken for granted that he had q wide ana
deep knowledge OF art and Of the other
subjects which he discussed; but he submits
that the evidence brought forward In these
volumes does not warrant the assumption.
The truth Is. he says, that Pater, who was
Of an indolent nature, never would take the
trouble to 60 to the root Of things. What
ever his limitations, however. he had the
gift inherent in genius OF gliding whatever
knowledge he possessed--no matter how
insignificant. THAT being the case. his very
moderate equipment need not trouble us.
In those days there were probably hum
dred scholars who knew considerably more
about art than the author OF The Renais-
sance,' but there was only one Pater.
Pater was something far higher than
mere scholar. He was a creator
During 1875 and 1879 Pater occupied
himself almost exclusively with the series
OF Greek Studies which. though contrib
uted at the time to the Fortniehtly and
Mdc,nilldn's Magazine, did not appear In
book form until after his death These
articles fall into two groups. the first OF
which, consisting, as 1t does. of several
imaginary portraits. Is ranked in the book
before us az far the more fascinating.
Mr.. Wright directs special attention to bis
portraits Of Dionysus OF Demeter and Of
Hippolytus-'haunting figures built up
out Of the Bacche and OF the Hippolytus
OF Euripides. the Acharnians Of Aristoph-
anes. Ovid's Epistle Of Phedra to Hip
polytus, the twenty sixth idyll Of The
ocritus and scattered passages in other
Greek and Latin alessics.' The latter
half OF the work. which comprises three
chapters on Greek sculpture, while possibly
more informing than the previous half,
Is much less delightful. His portraits are
such as no other man could draw, for he
sees analogies that nobody else would
have suspected. When, on the other hand,
Pater lays himsel. out to descant on master
pieces OF Greek plastic art in metal and
marble the charm evaporates. He merely

be present and punctual. Finally he seized
the bull by the horns and boldly discontinued
the lectures. Another Brasenose man re-
calls that he attended Pater's lectures on
Aristotle, and says that shis manner in
!ecturing was TO bend his head over the
table at which he sat and to cover his eyes
with his hands. not often looking up to ask
a question
The essay on Winokelmann was followed
by articles on Leonardo, Botticelli, Pico
and Michael Angelo. and in 1878 Pater re-
vised them thoroughly and republished
them with some other studies in book form
under the title THE Renaissance Almost
all OF the writer's admirers concur with
Mr.. Wright In regarding 'The Renaissance

for $50, 143 and besides this Mr..

the bulk Of the trading, selling as

ment that the December dividend
would be 4 per cent or $50, 600.
There has been considerable local
enquiry for Reindeer at 2 to pa,

offering price has been raised to 5
cents, and as the floating stock has
been pretty well cleaned up it is
doubtful ii there is much for sale at
this price. Lucky Calumet, in the

been active, showing an advance
