PEARY.

The name of an American is now inscribed on the rolls of the immor- tai dead.
 Through countless succeeding cen turies the name of Peary will be known to mankind, long after the memory of greater men--statesmen, soldiers, poets, or sts-have been forgotten.
 It is a tremendous reward for dauntless courage and patience and Judgment and persistent enterprise.
 Peary and Amundsen, the first men, respectively, to reach the polar extremeties of the earth, will go down with Columbus and Magellan in the first rank of the great ex- plorers. The consequences of their achievement, it's eminence, or quality have less to do with this result. than the mere fact that they were the first men to reach the last outposts O. the world. Because they reached tie end, because they were first to stand on the point beyond whicf. there is nothing, because they brought at last all the round circuit of the earth under the foot of civil ized men, their names will be for all time, or at least while our race has records or tradition, the prop erty of all men.
 We Americans are naturally proud that one of our nation won this gilt tering prize of perpetual fame. But their reward is oblivion. Many men for a great cause have died in ob. scurity though their lives and their deaths were high service to human ity. Courage, devotion, high pur- pose, unselfish service abilities in all degrees and varieties are the stuff of human existence, shown daily in humble lives as in the lives 10 fthe great. Human progress is the great road they build. Fame often has been an accident or circumstance But the accident was only cap asheaf on the structure of character Peary won because of his qualities He could not have won without them Other men of equal character have failed. Perhaps because blind cir cumstance failed them.
 Fame does not inquire. It IS nec- essary to progress not merely that men should deserve to achieve but that the achievement shall come, not only that men heroically shall try gbut that they shall succeed.
 Fame, speaking for the instinct of life, looks beyond the man to the thing done It is the act which she rrowns.-Ch Chicago Tribune.

JAZZING POETRY.

# The world is indebted to Miss Amy Lowell or enlightment on the new school of prose-poetry. The Bublic has been waiting for some instruction that would make plain its principles, and permit the anna teur to acquire facility in poly phonic prose-" Miss Lowell lifts the lid:
 1t is the fullest and the most elastic of all poetic forms for il follows at will any and all of the rules which guide other forms. Poly phonic prose can go from one form to another, in the same poem, with kno sense of incoagrulty. It has the Hong, flowing cadence of oratorical sprose, which enables the poet to 5eaange from verse libre. or eYeA Bake the regular beat or meter sshoalG marked time be advisable, Polyphonic prose is, in sense, an Orchestral form.
