church at Fayette and Green streets,
and in 1873, nearly quarter of cen
tury after his death, the people of Bal
timore, led by a band of patriotic wo-
men teachers, erected the present me-
mortal over it. The body of his wife,
Virginia GLENN Poe, lies there now too.
Mrs. Poe died in the little cottage at
Fordham, n. Y, which was the poets
home from about 1S45 to 1S49. Her
remains were at first laid in vault in
the churchyard of the old Dutch Re
formed church of Fordham, but later
were laid beside her husbands.
Poe was not honored at West Point
while he was a cadet there. On the
contrary, he was expelled from the
institution on account Of his inatten-
ton to discipline. Whistler, who was
a West Point cadet, too, at one time,
also got his walking papers from the
academy. Now he is hOnored there by
a memorial, the work of the late Au-
gustus st. Gaudens. Whistler was
perhaps the greatest of American art
lists, as Poe is generally ranked the
greatest of American poets. 1t is
certainly a singular coincidence that
both should have been dismissed from
the same educational institution and
that both will now be honored there
in sculptural memorials.
Opposite the Poe cottage In Ford
ham is a park which bears his name.
The Bronx Society of Arts and Sci
ences has erected In it in connection
with the centennial exercises a bronze
pedestal commemorating his achieve
ments and upon it placed a bust of
the poet by Edmond T. Quinn. 1t is

fair success. The continent has had

tramp who pretends that work
awaits him somewhere in the beyond
and plaintively asks for charity to

firms idleness in such case. and, how
ever decent the beginning. the end is
pauperism. y man who is forced to
tramp to find work is to be pitied. In
the colony he can have work without
tramping for 1t and must at least
make show of earning what he eats.

fault.
For some reason Poe has not re-
ceived his due in this respect. Per-
haps the centenary observances at
tracing so much interest now will
prompt the American people to erect
more adequate reminders than at pres
ent exist of him who is called the
country's greatest poet. Already there
is a hint of such result in the pro-
posal to place memorial of Poe at
