Noted Women Whose Birthday Is Yours

FEBRUARY 20
lpor, Katherine Mcdowell
Copyrighted. 1913.

Two women who made themselves
famous writing poetry were born on
February e6, so the day ought to be
good birthday for aspiring young
poets of the present generation.
First in point of time of these two
was Mary Leapor, who came into the
world February 26, 1922, in North
ampshire, England. Her father was
gardener in the employ of a local
judge, and Mary quite naturally had
no advantages and almost no educa-
ton. Somehow she learned how to
read, and whenever she could find a
book she devoured 1t eagerly and
cherished all sorts of childish dreams
which she kept to herself. AT an
early age she went to work In a
family In the neighborhood where she
filled the post of family cook at a
few shillings month; but she went
on reading, and out of her meager
earnings she managed to buy copies
of the poems of Dryden, Pope and
other contemporary writer's, and then
out of her meagre experience and
slight education began to write verses

A South American federation of
newspaper writer's, including some oil
the best known men in Brazil, Argen-
tina and Uruguay, is talked OF as
result of the recent visit OF the lead
ing journalists of Buenos Ayres and
Montevideo to this city, says Rio
de Janeiro dispatch to the Christian
Science Monitor. =
On no occasion has Brazilian hos
pitality been displayed with more eff
feet and TO a better purpose than
during the visit of the Argentine and
JJruguayan journalists. The affair
was in the nature of a return visit,
where the BraZilians few weeks ago
had been the guests of their fellow
workmen in Buenos Ayres and Monte
vjdeo; but while sociability was the
purpose that brought these men to-
gether on both occasions, yet the Rio
de Janeiro event proved something
much more. The several govern
ments also realized the importance of
having the writers as their allies, and
brazilian offlcialdom outdid itself in
hospitality.
1t was Senior Facio Hebezuer, Of
the Argentine delegation, who pro
posed the solidifying of the South
American press in journalistic con-
gress, in a speech which rang with
much meaning, according TO the re-
ports in the newspa pers the day fol-

We're present as guests of the jour-
nalists. The speech oyerflowed with
fraternal expressions; but it was
when Senior Hebezuer spoke of great
er journalistic unity in South Amer
lea that the audience rose as one and
voiced its approval of such an or
ganization as the noted Argentine
editor proposed.
Senior Hebezuer said that the time
had come for the press OF South
America to band together so that the
world might know how we'll the news
papers in the South conserved the in
terests of the people. The present
was an occasion, he added. where a
demonstration of friendship could be
made exceedingly practical and
valuable to the nations concerned.
The time was past when South Amer
lean countries could shield themselves
behind isolation born of inaccessi-
bility, and he felt that the drawing
together of North and South Ameri-
ca, by events foreshadowed, would
mean greater opportunities all
around. 1t has been left for the vari-
GUS journalistic organizations con-
cerned to work out plan of uniflca-
ton and reports are to be heard in
due time as to what will be done.

NEW NEWS OF YESTERDAY
President Cleyeands Choice for Supreme Court Justice

without consulting the Democratic
senator from New York.
There was great delay in the action
of the Senate, and at last Mr.. Horn
blower communicated with President
Cleveland intimating that he had no
desire to embarrass the President and
that he certainly had no desire to Sc
cure confirmation if there was any
opposition In the Senate.
Then it was that President Cleve-
land revealed one of his most striking
personal characteristics He said
practically in these words: II will
not withdraw that nomination. There
is no good reason why Mr.. Horn
blower should not be promptly and
unanimously confirmed for associate
justice of the Supreme Court / shall
keep that nomination before the Sem
ate until it is acted upon. And If it Is
defeated the responsibility must be on
the senators who compass that de-
feat"
The nomination was defeated prin-
cipally out of Difference to what was
called senatorial courtesy. Immedi-
ately President Cleveland sent the
name of Wheeler II. Peckham to the
Senate That nomination was not
favorably viewed by senators, for the
reason that Mr.. Peckham was not be-
lieved to have the judicial quality OF
mind.
Then President Cleveland. acting
upon his own initiative, reached over
into the Senate chamber itself and
nominated a. senator whom he knew
would be gladly, instantly and unani-
mously onfirmed-Edward B. White
of Louisiana. And so, later, when il
| became the duty of President Taft tC

William B. Hornblower was re-
Gently appointed by Governor Glynn
associate justice of the Court OF
Appeals of New York State. He was
named to fill vacancy. A little
over twenty years have passed since
President Grover Cleveland nominated
Mr. Hornblower as associate justice
of the Supreme Court of the United
States. Had that nomination been
confirmed. the probabilities are that
the present chief justice, Edward D.
White. of Louisiana, would have
served for many years as United
States senator from Louisiana, and
might be serving in that capacity
now.
President Cleveland. in the four
years between his retirement from the
Presidency in 1889 and his return tc
the Presidency in the spring of 1898
practised law in New York city. Ir
that way he became intimate with
Mr.. Hornblower and gained the high
est respect for his ability as a
lawyer and his charm of personality
When vacancy occurred upon tht
Supreme Court bench, the President
determined, without consultation, tc
name Mr.. Hornblower to the senate
for the succession. 1t so happened
