Remarkable Personalities Among Us Whose Presence
Should Not Be Ignored-Brilliant Euogy Pro-
nounced by Distinguished Man.

his country. That he is not only the
posessor of the unsurpass oratorical
gifts but is erudte
Personality cannot be discounted
II plays the leading role in the social
drama. And it was again felt acutely
in the presence of Judge Daniel w
Comsrock and his appreciation of Mr.
Jenkinsons individual gifts and of his
career.
Judge Comstock denominated Mr.
Jenkinson a gentleman of the old
school--himself one of its finest and
rarest exemplars-and emphasized the
fact than Mr.. Jenkinson was not mere
ly private citizen whose services to
the community called for appreciative
comment by his friends and neighbours
but man whose achievements added
lustre to his state and nation.
Judge Comstock's courtly and gal
liant tribute to his dead friend was the
more impressive from the nobility of
the speakers presence, for there are
very few figures in this country of
the distinction Of this. one of the
states most accomplished jurists.
Judge Comstock is of type as rare in
! this day as it is imposing.
i Like motif in musical compo-
sition, like the tone in a picture-we
should take account of the extraordi-
nary personalities now with us. They
are human manifestations that point
the meaning of life. They should be
Invested OF every consideration save
i the charm of their visible presence.
But little is known of Mr. Jenkin-
sons literary accomplishment. Much
of his journalistic, as pointed out by
Judge John L. Rupe. His life OF
Aaron Burr was referred to in passing
but few people know what a hercu
lean literary task Mr.. Jenkinson per
! formed in the writing of this book.
| Mr.. Jenkinson possessed the necess'
airy and ideal qualities of the scholar
No research was too prolonged or
tedious. No biographical clew too re-
mote for investigation. In his life OF
Aaron Burr very few authorities are
cited. In this it has been criticised
by the ultra-exacting. But because
the book does not abound in foot
notes, appendices, marginal explana
tions and minute description Of
authoritative sources is no reason fol
concluding that these could not have
been supplied. Mr.. Jenkinson could
have done this but had that finer lit
erary feeling of security in his owr
deductions because based on accurate
investigation.
His picture of Burr, whatever may
be regarded as to it's accuracy-anc
the truth of history is so uncertain
that Jenkinson's Burr is as apt to bt
the genuine one as the contrary-is &
fascinating one and one which has
attracted the attention of scholars ant
historians.

ABOUT LISZT.

A Paris contemporary, rererrlng 10
the number of distinguished men born
in the year 1871, relates an interest
ing story of List, who is included in
the catalogue. List was living in
little German town when Drinks, the
Norwegian painter, came to reside at
the same place, thinking he would be
able to work there without Interrupt
tions He had only been installed in
his new quarters one day, when he
made the pianists acquaintance. The
painter had been trying his art about
two hours, and then he gave up in
despair He went outside and at the
same time List came out for breath
OF fresh air.
The painter addressed the pianist,
and this dialogue ensued: Are you
the pianist, monsieur. whom I have
heard all day." Yes, monsieur" ut
is very irritating.' Alas, monsieur,
you do not love music?" Il detest it,"
at is very regrettable, but l must

work; moreover, you play atrociou-

first time any one has ever told me

SPECIAL FIRE WARDEN'S NOTICE

Public notice is hereby given to
all parties who desire to start
brush or stump piles for the pur-
pose of clearing land, to refrain
from so doing until the present
dry spell is passed and the ground
is thoroughly wet and then not
unless specially guarded.
In case of emergency you can
get a permit from the local Fire
Warden, providing he deems it
safe to burn, and who will kindly
advise you in this matter. BY SO
doing you will save yourself from
prosecution, as the state law re
quires it. Consult the prosecu-
ting attorney and get wise. Do
not be headstrong in this matter,
if you do you are only setting a
trap for your own foot, which
you are liable to step into at any
time.
Read the red and white fire
notices posted up around town.
BY order of my superiors,
n. L. KINNEY,
45-1t Deputy Fire Warden.

BE Careful of Brush Fires

Settlers and farmers should be
very careful about burning brush
piles at this season of the year,
when it is SO dry. There is fne
tor setting fires, especially when
II does damage to adjoining prop
erty. A lighted match thrown
aside the road from a passing
team will start the dry grass and
cause considerable of expense
and loss. Too much care cannot
be taken at this season Of the
year.
