Ghost of Joaquin Miller Is
 Said to Haunt The Flights

l - !. 5-l s
 This is the seventy third anniver- sary of the birth of that great poet of the West. Cincinnatus Heine Miller. known to immortal fame as Joaquin Miller. Hoosier by birth and Cali xorrian by adoption, this viriIe sing CT of the ss1ndown seaS was the last to die of that brilliant coterie of San Francisco literary lights which in cluded Mark Twain, Prentice Null ford. Bret Harte, Charles Warren Stoddard, Thomas Newconb and many others When last year the ashes of the poet of the sierras were cast into the flames on the funeral pyre which he had built with his own hands, not alone Californians, not only Americans, but the whole world Inourned.
 Since Joaquin MilIer's death it has been persistently reported that his shade haunts The Hights''-to use his own spelIing-the wild mountain estate where the bard spent his last days and where he died. In life. Miller could look down from his eyrie on San Francisco and the Golden ed, his pale shade still visits the place he loved so much. Neighbors alIege that they have seen the dim and shadowy figure of the Sierra poet walking at night near the cairn which he built of big stones near his mon
 
 ter the poets passing his widow and his daughter, Juanite, asserted that they had held converse with the spir- 1t of the bard, and that in his familiar voice he had assured them that all was we'll with him.
 Not long before his death the poet. in talking with a friend. gazed down from s.The Hights and explained, 'sOh, it is beautiful, beautifuIl Not for a thousand years will again leave this spot!,,
 Now it is asserted that Miller is keeping his promise. and that his spirit still hovers over the spot where his ashes were buried. Some time before his last illness the singer of the Sierras issued instructions that pyre that was his own shandiwork, and that the ashes be collected and buried close by the grave of his daughter Maud, who was an actress. Another request, which was carried out, was that the funeral ceremonies hemian Club of San Francisco.
 Famous as he was when alive, 1t has only been since his death that Joaquin Miller has been generally recognized as one of the great bards of the world. In his own opinion, Missouri" which includes these lines: Hoar sire of hot, sweat Cuban seas,

Dr. Van Dyke, U. s. Minister
 In Netherlands, Is 62 Today

i, Dr. Henry Van Dyke. clergyman. educator. author. poet, explorer, hun ter and diplomat, now United States minister to the Netherlands will pass his sixty-second milestone today. The versatile representative of Uncle sam at the court of the Dutch queen was born in Germantown, Pa, Nov. 10, 1852, the son Of a clergyman. and was educated at Princeton and the Uni versity of Berlin. As clergyman he has been pastor of churches in New port. R. l. and New York, and mod orator of the Presbyterian general assembly. As educator he was for
 many years professor of English lf- terature at Princeton University. As author and poet he has published nearly tWo-score volumes in the last thirty years, and has won internation- al recognition in the world of letters. Of Dutch descent, he was given a glad welcome tosThe Hague as Ameri- can minister, and as a dipIomat he has been more than equal to the e1ner- gencies presented by the great Euro pean war. He has given without stint of his time, money and influence in aiding the thousands of refugees who Hooked into Holland following the declaration of war, and he has alleviate the suffering of the thous- ands Of homeless Belgians who have f1ocked across the Dutch border to escape the terrible desolation brought upon them by war.
 4 Financier might be added to the list of the Accomplishment of this man of many vacations. for at the outbreak of the war he made arrange ments with the Dutch and Washington governments wherby all American travellers checks and drafts on letters of credit were promptly cashed. As a result Of pr. Van Dykes foresight, there was no financial stringency among Americans in Holland. Tn ad- dition to providing financial accomo- dations. the Dutch lega,t ion also served as a clearing house of information for people of all nations. Dr. Van Dyke and his assistants made thousands of inquiries on behalf of English people whose relatives or friends were lost in Germany, and for Germans or Aus trians who were missing in Belgium, France and England. Z.
 Dr Van Dykes house was thrown open to refugees of all nations, and 1t has been one of the busiest places in Holland. "Our object hereg' Dr. Van Dyke wrote to an American paper, is to keep the door open between bellf- gerent countrfes'' 7 but he admits that he has had to be careful to prevent the legation from being used as a channel Of communication for the spy business.,'

He is the son of Capt. J. H. JelIicoe, and the great grandson of Sir James Wha1ley Smyth which is now extinct. Small in sta ture. with a clean -shaven face, soft spoken when he speaks at all, he does not look the dashing Admiral, but on such occasions as he has been called upon to display gallantry and stra- tegy he has acquitted himself well. He entered the navy forty-two years ago, and had his first experience of war in the Egyptian conflict of 1882 He emerged from that war with the Khedive's bronze star. the first of many decorations he was to receive. In 1900 he commanded the naval bril- attempted relief Of the Pekfn# Iega- tions. and was. severely wounded. On that occasion the German Emperor gave him the Order of the Red Eagle. He was made rear-adniral and kn1ghteds seven years ago.
