pole being about four months.
The pole graces the west side of the
Boston Post Road, at the corner of
Westport FILL and Newtown avenues
The hill is one of the steepest in that
sharp turn at the bottom. It is very
part Of the country, and has a short,
deceptive, as stranger cannot detect
the turn until he is very close, and
unable to check his speed. The road
at this point is paved with white
brick which, is very slippery and al
most deadly when the surface is wet
To add to the hazards OF this corner,
the road has a crowned surface to
allow the water to run off and the
slight slope of the, road naturally
tends to drive the car against the
pole A few feet behind the pole
there is stone and concrete wall two
feet thick. This wall has to be re-
placed two or three times every year
for If the motorist manages to avoid
the pole he is sure to hit the wall.
More than one automobile has plung-
ed through the wall and gone in the
cemetery that lies beyond, tearing up
headstones and doing other damage.
There have been many broken bones
as the result of accidents, and there
has been one death which occurred
two years ago. It has been declared
impossible by engineers to fix the
corner, as that would necessitate a re-
construction of the entire Post Road
for many miles. People who are ia
p1iliar with the hill do not have any
rouble in negotiating the turn, as
they slow down almost to a walk.

MAURICE MAETERLINCK,
BELGIUM'S GREAT POET

The Germans may have taken away
from the Belgians their land and
their. treasure, represented by that
genius, Maurice Maeterlinck, who is
one of the greatest figures in modern
European literature. M. Maeterlinck,
whose dramas, poems, essays and
philosophical studies have been trans
lated into all tongues and have won
for him worldwide reputation, was
born in Client, Belgium, August Is,
1864, and will be fifty-three years
old tomorrow. Since the outbreak OF
the war Maeterrnck has devoted him
self largely to caring for his stricken
countrymen. M. Maeterlinck truly
represents the spirit of Belgium. for
despite horrors and hardships, he is
fighting on and intends to keep UP
the fight until Justice shall have been
done and Belgium restored to it's he
roic people.
The great author first came into
prominence about a quarter of a. CEN
fury ago, when his play, La Prin-
cesse Maleine," made its appearance
He was then residing in Paris, and

and to do Justice to their demands.
Criticism of King Alphonso
The Garcia Prieto Cabinet, becom-
jig alarmed, telegraphed
Alfau, the Captain General of Cata-
lonia, to dissolve the Juntas and to
imprison insubordinate members.
The situation Immediately became
grave. Not only all the Juntas of
Spain. but the whole of the Army as
well as the marine and gendarmie,
made common cause with the Juntas,
and asked for the Immediate release
of all the arrested officers The gov
eminent replaced General A1fau for
his alleged half-hearted handling OF
the situation and sent General Marina
to Barcelona to succeed him. The
latter, on realizing the true position
of affairs, released the prisoners, and
promised that ample satisfaction
would be Forthcoming.
| The Liberal Garcia Prieto Cabinet
thus disavowed. The King charged
the Conservative leader, Senior Dato,
with the formation Of new Ministry,
which has been accomplished, and a
promise given of the solution of the
military difficulties.
AT the same time "a semi official
note states that perfect tranquility
prevails all over the country. Never
theless, there is discomfort, not only
on account of 1.-The bad Estate of or
ganization and stocks, but principally
on account OF the bad state of or
ism and nepotism which prevail. pro-
motions, honors. and awards being
snapped up only by those VINO nave
lhighlyplaced patrons or relatives.
1T is in connection with the preva-
lence of this system that the King
has come in for criticism, while the
present Minister of War, the Marquis
de Estella, who is IS, is known as
the patriarch Of favoritism, and the
confidence of the Army in his is any
thing but strong.
IT will be seen from these details
that the situation is still far from
settled, and little surprise would be
occasioned if, before very long. there
was an outburst of more formidable
violence.

he did not return to his native land
until his reputation was well esta b.
lished. In 1895 he produced "Pelleas
and Melisande'' and 1.-THE Intruder"
in London, personally supervising the
staging of the plays. Many of his
dramas, including 1.-THE Blue Bird"
have been produced in America. Mae
terlinck's dramas and novels are
idealistic in the extreme, yet the great
Belgian is no pale, long-haired dys-
ppetic dreamer, but a lover. of open
air exercise and sport. Bookkeeping,
before the war, was one of his pTfn-
c1ple recreations, and his study Of the
proverbla1ly busy insects afforded the
material for his famous book. '"Tha

HISTORIC EvENTs, BOTH
4 GRAVE AND GAY, ON
ST. BARTHOLOMEW'S DAY

Many historic events, grave and gay,
are connected with the name OF st.
Bartholomew, the apostle whose feast
day is celebrated by the church to-
day. The terrible st. Bartholomew
massacre on Aug. "a, 1879, is forever
associated with the festival of the
good saint. On st. Bartholomew
day just a little over a century ago
the city of Washington was captured
by the British and the capitol and the
Presidents Mansion were given over
to the flames, although the Invading
army did not carry out its threat to
turn the Yankee capital into a, pas
ture for cows" The saints day is
also the anniversary Of the birth of
Letizia Ramoloni, at Ajaccio, Corsica,
in s1750, who later. became the mother
OF Napoleon.
lar saint in England ,sand many quaint
customs were in vogue on his feast
day. According to tradition the saint
suffered martyrdom by being slashed
to bits with knives, and at the alb
hey of Croyland it was long the prac-
ltice to make a distribution of knives
on each oath of August. One of the
richly endowed five royal hospitals"
| of London was named after the saint.
The famous hospital and chapel Of
| ST. Bartholomew in Sandwich Eng
land, built in the thirteenth century,
were erected as a thank offering to-
1.-THE saint for his miraculous interven-
ton to save the town from the wrath
of one Eustaco, a 'sblack monk',sswho
had made compact with the devil
and who thus possessed the power to
make himself and his ships inyisab
The BLACK monk had become pi-
lrate and on a certain st. Bartnolo-
news Day he descended on Sandwich
and, having a grudge against the
place, prepared to destroy it.. The
people prayed to st. Barth olornew,
and one Crabbe boarded the BLACK
monks vessel and Topped off Eus-
tace's head, after which a great hur-
ricane wiped out the pirate fleet. For
several centuries the city fathers of
Sandwich. with lighted candles in
their hands, marched to the hospital
on each Gath of August.
/ Like many other saints, Bartholo-
lmew is supposed to influence the
weather and his day is supposed to
mark the end of the heated period.
One of the most famous observances
of the day was that at the Smithfield
Fair in London. The Bartholomew
L
oath of August for more than seven
hundred years. and was not abolished
until 1855, when the annual saturna-
liza of vice and shame became more
than London's stomach could stand.
The Bartholomew Fair was the par
! emit of the street fair and midway
which are held in many American CT
ties. and ancient prints depicting the
booths of exhibitors show that little
change has been made. Flarine
paintings representing. with much ex-
aggeration, the wonders to be seer
INSIDE, were displayed before tents OF
irude wooden structures. On raised
platform in front of the freaks and
''bal1yhoos'' shouted themselves
lhoarse appealing to the public te
enter. With the exception of the
: elimination of the vice, those fairs
have their modern counterparts today
in all parts of the country.
