Albert Bigelow Paine to Spend a
Short Time in keokuk and Be
the Guest of Friends for a
Few Days.
TWAIN's
BIOGRAPHY
Is a Traveller, Poet, Novelist, Nature
Writer, Editor, Historian and
stimulator Of Young
Writers.

Keokuk is to have as a visitor Al
bert Bigelow Paine, poet, editor,
humorist, historian, and incidentally,
the man chosen by Mark Twain to be
the biographer of the latter.
Mr.. Paine is coming to Keokuk to
look into some matters connected
with the life of Mark Twain here, for
a few days and will be the guest of
DR.. G. Walter Barr while in this city.
He has. been the preceptor of Miss
Mann Clark Barr in the literary work
of the latter. He will arrive tomor
row and probably be here the rest of
this week.
Mr.. Paine is the author of twenty
six books, ranging from poems
through juveniles to novels, out-of-
door descriptions, biography and ma
ture studies. The best thing he has
written is "a Sailor of Fortune" &C.
cording to the majority of critics. His
the best in biographical literature.
Half of his books have been Juveniles.
His lates success Is The Ship Dwell
klers,'' an account of tour which ire
sistibly recalls the innocents who
went abroad years ago and is a. book
dedicated to Mark Twain with frank
admissions of the Influence of the
book of the latter on this book of
1910.
The Inspiration Of Young Writers.
Having been editor of the chill
dren's page Of the New York Herald,
once upon time, and for years one
of the editors of Saint Nicholas Maya
zine, Mr.. Paine has proved his fond
ness for youth. Competent authority
says that he has done more to de-
velope the literary requirements of
this twentieth century, through his
stimulation of the best literary ambi-
tons of young people, than has any
other one force.
His faith in the literary quality of
the coming generation is. shown in
his article in the North American Re-
view few years ago in which he
demonstrated that young people are
writing, in both prose and poetry, as
we'll today as they did in the days of
| Washington Irving, Longfellow, Whit
tier and the other lights of the last
century.
Mark Twain in keokuk.
| Mr. Paine resigned from the staff of
| Saint Nicholas, and gave up much
other work, in order to give his en-
tire attention for while to writing
the adequate life of Mark Twain. MR..
Clemens chose him for this important
task some months before the death
of the dean of American authors, and
Mr.. Paine practically lived in the
| Clemens family at Storm6eld, in
Redding, Conn. during the last days
/ of Mark Twain.
/ There are some enlightening
things here in Keokuk where Mark
| Twain lived for some time and
whence he started on his trip to the
west and fame. Mr.. Paine is coming
to get some of these lights on the
| history of his subject at first hand
and to talk with a few of the init
mates of Sam Clemens who are left
here in Keokuk.

Egan which contains the signature of
Ochs. Egan says Rock Island sent the
player to Kankakee and that he had

for the player. With Ochs in Keo-
kuk uniform possession of the player
looks almost safe to Belt.

The Commercial club committees
which have been soliciting funds for
the Keokuk Baseball association will
appreciate it if those subscribers who
have not already paid will please leave
the amount of the subscriptions at the
tKeokuk National bank. Checks may
be made payable to the Keokuk Base
ball association.
The committee was able to report
this afternoon that about $3.50 is need
ed to bring up the total in subscrip-
items to s1,500. The gentlemen who
were seeing the wholesale men today
were unable to complete their task and
will resume the canvass tomorrow

will be reached sometime tomorrow.
Other Ball News.
President Justice was q spectator at
the ball game in Quincy Sunday.
The Gems pulled off quite stunt
before yesterdays game which shows
that they fear the Indian speed men.
The diamonds were flooded with water
shortly before the game was called,
making the going very slow. The
heavy Quincy players did not labor
under the difficulties that Keokuk's
youngsters did. Miller was caught
twice in stealing bases, thing that
seldom happens.

Arthur Brisbane, ESQ.,
Dear Sir: Please pardon my pre-
sumption in hurrying to write you Of
the affair at our house last evening I
wish you might have been there to
have seen and heard Mr.. Davenport.
I will try to enlighten you; as lee
turer, he is simply peerless, and be-
lieve as effective and eloquent with
his voice as with his pencil; and such
a magnificent personality and child"
ish simplicity and power Of expression
| have never before witnessed. He
held as intelligent and refined an au-
dience as ever he saw or ever will
see spellbound for an hour and half
wholly unconscious Of the effect he
was producing not the slightest eff
fort for oratorical effect almost en-
trely without gesture; with voice
as silvery and charming as that of the
late Wendell Phillips. 1t is impos-
sible to predict the success that must
be In store for this young genius. lie
Is the best equipped man for welding
an influence wider and more potent
in all contemporary reforms than any
man OF his time So 1t seems to me
from my acquaintance with him
I am writing Of Davenport as
could not write of any man know
or have ever known, excepting Henry
Ward Beecher, to whom had the
privilege and honor Of being the
nearest friend during the last IL
years of his life, and who died in
my arms. am, yours enthusiastical-
~ and dead earnestly,
J. B. POND.
Hundreds of others have written
equally strong endorsements of Dav-
enport, but why repeat them-have
we not followed the bright lines of
his pencil in his inimitable cartoons?
Have we not rejdiced in his successes,
and doubly reioiced because he was
our own Marion county kid" And
besides, we are all going to see him,
and his work, both Thursday and
Friday nights, Seats now on sale at
