When LiIacs Bloom.

When lilacs laugh along the garden
wall
And toss their purple plumes upon
the wind
I shall 60 home again, and leave be-
hind
The city's petty cares that bind and
thrall;
like to think the orioles will call
Amid the elms as once they did; l
mind
One used to swing his nest with Itch
ems lined
From tree near my dormer window
small.
When lilacs bloom shall go home again
To seek and find the things ! loved OF
yore--
A spire Of iris lifted by the door.
And grass dew-spangled as with drops
of rain:
For each pain balm. from every woe
release,
And in my heart a voice that WINS
pers Peace"

The Man Who Made Nick Carter.

The elder DUMAS boosted to
NAPOLEON III. that he had written
1,200 volumes of fiction, but this
huge total included the novels he
wrote in collaboration and the stuff
he bought from others and touched
up. In point of actual personal pro-
duction it is unlikely that DUMAS
approached the number of words
written by FREDERICK VAN RENssE-
LAER DEFY, whose death was an
nounced yesterday.
Beginning in 1890. DEFY wrote one
Nick Carter dime novel every week,
with few exceptions, for twenty
years. The name of the famous de-
tective did not originate with DEFY;
one book about Nick had appeared
before DEY took up the task of pro-
viding the weekly feast for the null
titude or devourers Of inexpensive
tales of crime and adventure. The
publishers who had copyrighted the
hero's name handed 1t over to DEFY
with a contract for one thriller a
week and it was DEY who made
Nick's reputation.
Under the guidance of DEY Nick
became detective so lively, so re-
sourceful, so modern In his methods
that most Of the older set OF fiction
detectives retired from the field. Be-
fore Niok's time there had been Old
Sleuth. Cap Collier, Old King Brady
and Old Rafferty,. Men who are now
gray haired golfers knew these celeb
rites we'll in the days when their
adventures tfptoed through the pages
OF the Family story Paper and the
hebdomadal libraries" They had
pistols, handouts and dark lanterns
galore, but none Of them was as in
genious as Nick.
Conan DOYLE introduced Sherlock
Holmes to the world in 1887, two
years before Nick Carter made his
bow; but DEY always vigorously in
sisted that the powers Of deduction
with which he invested Nick were
borrowed direct from PoB and not
from the author OF "A Study in Scar
LETT Not that deduction mattered
much to the followers OF Nick. they
we're keener for the grim chase OF
criminals, the wonderful disguise
and the amazing strength of DEY's
protagonist.
Yet DEy was more wonderful in
real life than Nick was in fiction.
lie worked FIVE days a week and each
day turned out between 5000 and
5000 words--nearly three-quarters Of

feat Il was necessary to have all
possible ease OF body and mind. DEy

OF the chair. Then he lay back,

Listen to this from those who are
telling IL: Jackson is claimed to have
the longest pair of arms that ever
dangled from the shoulders of a
heavyweight fighter, Freckled Fitz in

ter as to knockouts than Buddy Jack

claimed for Tut from Ohio that he
has made the brides sing for forty

of this remark. 1t is sug-

Collins.
While Fulton sat dazed in his cor

in the first round, Collins leaped into
the ring and spoke to Fulton.
Whitley Fulton rushed at Collins,
with the defeated heavyweight close
on Whitey's heels.
Gibbons leaped through the ropes,
followed by host of seconds, Referee
Barton. fingside fans and police. In
the melee some one ciit Gibbons, and
Collins admitted he was vanqushed,
but at the hands of Whitley Fulton,
and not by the elongated plasterer

night that Miske had been signed to
meet Capt. Bob Roper in a ten-round
no-decision contest at Oklahoma City
