THE REAL WHISTLER.

1t was Whistler's complaint that
the world never understood him;
but he himself was largely to blame
for this. I'm surroundings of an
tagonism," he once confessed, 81
wrap myself in a species of mis-
understanding. Again and again
he took deliberate pleasure in be-
fuddling people. Even the matter of
his birthplace was the subject of a
bon mot which wrapped the whole
subject in obscurity He was born
in Lowell, Mass, July 10, 1884. But
when an article in a French maya
zine gave Baltimore as his birth
place, and the mistake was many
times repeated he did not take the
trouble to deny it. my dear cousin
Kate" he said to Mrs. Livermore,
eff anyone likes. to think l was born
in Baltimore, why should I deny it?
1t is of no consequence to me-" To
an American who introduced himself
by saying, 'You know, Mr. Whistler,
we were born at Lowell, and at very
much the same time You are 81
and I am 6S,' he replied: Every
charming, And so you are 68, and
were born at Lowell, Mass. Most
interesting, no doubt, and as you
please. But | shall be born when
and where | want, and I do not
choose to be born at Lowell, and /
refuse to be 81"
Something of this same fantastic
spirit ran through Whistler's whole
life. He refused to treat people
and especially people whom he did
not like-seriously He delighted in
banter and persifage He loved to
tantalize. He was something of a
braggadocio. But these attitudes,
We are coming to see more and more
clearly, were the expressions not of
a shallow nature, but of a man ultra
sensitive and intensely in earnest,
who found in them his readiest wea-
pons of defense against a Philistine
world-Current Literature (Janu-
ary).

THE STRAITS OF MESSINA.

Not many people stop to think
that the Straits of Messina is the
most famous one in history, that the
rocks which so long guarded it's
Ionian Sea entrance are the famous
Scylla and Charybdis of Greek myth
ology, and whose sirens were the ie-
struction of ancient mariners. 1t is
said that the earthquakes have shat
tered some of the rocks and have
changed the location of the Charyb-
dis whirlpool, out of which doubtless
the siren legend originated, because
it miraculously drew unsuspecting
m3riners to destruction.
The place has been a noted one FOR
more than three thousand years. In
deed it is longer than that since the
story of Ulysses voyage through the
strait was first told, and that was
but picking up and putting in form
legends that were then hoary with
age
1t seems that there are places
which are always more or less the
Government of history.
There has always been a glamor
over the valley of the Euhpratcs:
the valley of the Nile has been the
worlds Government since ages be-
fore the world had any written his
tory; while perhaps more interest to
Tie world clings around the Hel'e-
spOnt than any other spot on the
map, save only the Holy Land Thai
has been the dividing line between
Asiatic and European power since the
days of Darius; there modern enlignt-
enment had its first mighty clash
with the immovable Asiatic stolility.
Bat perhaps this strait of Messina
has had more romance woven around
it than any other spot. 1t was from
there that Syracuse was talleu
There, and in the Adriatic, assembled
the fleets that went across to Actium,
and for Octavius wrested the worlds
control from Antony and Cleopatra;
it was to Rome what the straits o.
Dover and ST. Georges channel have
been for thousand years to England
and has perhaps drawn the worlds
attention to it more than any spo.

PENNSYLVANIA GIANT PINE.

A giant white pine tree was cut
in Cameron county which produced
the following number of logs: Twelve
16-foot logs, three 14-foot logs, eight
12-foot logs, three 10-foot logs and
six S-foot logs, and the whole bunch
scaled the magnificent total of TO-
500 feet board measure The butt
log measured sixty inches, or five
feet in diameter at the small end.
The tree was not 394 feethigh, as it
would seem from the figures, but had
two forks and three branches Of i'm
mense size, hence the large number
of logs. The tree was cut down dur
ing the deepest snow of last winter,
and hence it was not much broken
because the snow deadened the fall

often-story of Game.

At the Drake stadium Friday after
football team lost to the faster West
High team by score of 20 to 0. The
score, however, does not really repre-
sent the difference in the teams, and
luck was an important factor in the
victory for the home team.
Despite the fact that luck did break
we'll for the Des Moines men on several
occasions, the visitors showed their
weaknesses in several ways. The Wis
itors lacked the snap of their oppon-
ents, especially in the line. which was
not fast enough TO prevent the Des
Moines men from getting thru and
breaking up the interference for the
forward passes that We're attempted
and in most cases failed for gains.
In the back field, however, the Wis
itors played fine game. and Lee Fet-
tiers, captain and quarterback was
particularly a star. Then rain came in
the middle of the first half. and
funbling by the visitors occurred re-
peatedly due many times to the wet
and slippery ball.

The West High men scored II in the
first half. and 9 in the second. San
