A Poets Grammar. i.
New York Evening Post.

rom the New YORK Evening Post.
A reader of Gray's 'Elegy has discov-
cred two mistakes in grammar in a sin
gle stanza. How many he might have
found by looking further may never be
known since he points these out in sor-
row rather than in exultation. The
poet wrote. either ignorantly or careless
ly. as follows:
Their name, their years. spel by the unlettered
he place OF fame and clegy supply;
And many holy text around she strews
That teach the rustic moralist to die
Their name.H eXclaims the twentieth
century critic. Is it not as plain as the
nose OH ones face that this s,.ould be
their Names since "all the people in
the graveyard did not bear the same
name? Yet if Gray had written their
names, how long would it have been
before some reader would have asked
how many names people had in that
graveyard? Then our poet was so slip
shod rs to write many a holy text
that teach" Certainly, this
should be teaches" since the form of
text is singular: ii is only the idea
that is plural. Poor Gray seems to have
been under the domination of ideas in
er than the reason. Otherwise, how
easy it would have been for him to be
correct in his grammar without injuring
the meter. Our critic is SO good as to
suggest alternatives:
And many holy texts around she strews
That teach the rustic moraist to die
Or:
And many holy text around she strews
To teach the rustic u,oralist TO die.
1t is SO simple if you are only not too
much of a poet TO know irow.

Vienna, May 3.-The scmiofcial an
nouncement here to-day that the
northern part Of Albania is to be oc-
cupied by Austria and the southern
part by Italy within few days was
favorably received by the Vienna pub
lie. Austria is now negotiating with
Italy over the terms OF the proposed
invasion. and this is believed to be the
real reason why the dual monarchy has
withheld any demonstration against
Montenegro. In the event that Italy
refuses TO act with Austria, or that
the conference of the ambassadors of
the great powers at London on Monday
proves futile, Austria will act alone
in the matter
II Is known that Emperor Francis
Joseph. in conference with his minis
ters. has definitely settled upon the
foreign policy OF Ausuia hungary for
the immediate future. Under this
policy. 1T is considered highly possible
that even should Montenegro agree to
arbitratc with the powers, Austria will
stu feel that an invasion of Albania is
necessary in order properly to solve
the Balkan problem. All settlements
eiSn ambassadors would be merely
provisional. and the Balkan situation
would remain fraught with imminent
possibilities OF danger.

possible that Russia might urge Servla

but at present Seryia will remain neu-
trial. especially until the differences
with Bulgaria have been settled
Since tho beginning OF the confer

government is now disguised at the
failure of the powers to unite upon n
method of settling the Balkan problem

day Austria will carry out her de-
mands for the establishment of an au
