Adam Carr was coming to have tea

had been in the habit of observing as
long as they could remembcr-but as
he did not appear they sat down with

suggested to John that he make inquiry

Adam accompanied the young man to

Jack insisted on going down to the ho-
tel with him. His eyes were uncom

face was livid; his breathing was hard,

firm rigid line that always marked
them.

Home, Sweet Home." (Boston Herald.)

For several reasons the acquisition of
 portrait of the author of Home, Sweet Home," is an interesting event
 in the history of Boston Museum of Fine Arts. The glamour. of romance
 will always hover about the career of John Howard Payne; the song which
 now constitutes almost his only, claim
 to enduring fame has the quality of
 universal appeal and numbers of eel
 ebrated singers have used it as an en-
 core and "farewell'' piece with very
 satisfactory results; the painter of
 the portrait, Charles Robert Leslie,
 was himself an interesting personality;
 and, moreover, Payne has associations
 with the story of the early theater in
 Boston which add to the interest with
 which visitors will contemplate the picture.
 Born in New York, Payne came to Boston as youthful prodigy, tine American Roscius," and played fla nous parts at the Federal Street thea ter. The parents of Edgar Allan Poe were living in Boston, and in the year of the birth of the poet, the young ac- tress mother was chosen, because of the quality of her beauty, to play such parts as Juliet to the Romeo of the brilliant newcomer. That brief period made one of the brightest episodes in the sad life of Mrs. Poe. Payne's abil- ities as an actor seemed to wither as he advanced in years, and he turned to the writing of plays, inc one of wbic.l "Clari, or, the Maid of Milan," he em- bedded the little poem by which now he is remembered. Investigators in late years have been able to diclose the stress of emotion under which he wrote the lines while living in Paris. Indeed, every few years new discover ies are made which illustrate the life of this homeless Wanderer, notably the series of letters which show the rela- tions long existing between him and the Shelleys and Washington Irving.

THE COLONEL AND THE HYPHEN

When Colonel Roosevelt assigns the much abused hyphen to eternal perdition he does so in no unmistak- able terms. He does not. mince his words. He comes right>out and says what he thinks. He blazes it forth to the world. He says:-"To hell with the hyphen!" And lets it go a5 that. The sentiment is all right; but the Colonel might be a trif1e more dignified in expressing himself, es- pecially as he wants his new motto" to take the place of the time honored 'E Furious Unum" on the coins and seal of the United States. The pres- ent slogan signifying many in one, that though the United States is made up of many states it is but one nation, has stood the test of time. It has come down the ages, and needs no apology There would be no use in supplanting it at this late date with such a robust expression as To he'll with the hyphen, because in ten or twelve years from now the hyphen will have been burning in the depths of hades for To many, many moons.
