 DeVaIera Vetoed Plan.
 It is said that Ramon Devalera promptly vetoed the plan when it was submitted to him and that this ended immediate hope as to it's submission to the Dail. Whether this is the cor rect version of what happened, time respondent of the Freeman's Journal says 1t is surmised that the commit tees plan is based upon Michael Col l1ns suggestion of last Monday. Mir. Collins at that time appealed to the treaty opponents to allow the new government to come into existence reminding them that they would thus nor be committed to it's acceptance, being free to act as it's censors and as free to oppose it should it fall short ot the nations needs.
 London, Jan. 6-(By the A. P.)- Eamon DeValera's alternative treaty Daily Mails Dublin correspondent, have fallen very fiat in Ireland, are subjects of some editorial criticism in the morning newspapers here. The Times says the status for Ireland which MT. DeValera's plan contem- plates is not that of a dominion but or an independent power in loose treaty relationship with Great Bri-
 
 viously was designed to embody the ideals of the timid number of Irish extremists who are set deterninedly against peace on any but their own terInS.''
 Assembly Private. Dublin, Jan 6-(By A. P.)-The Dali Eireann reass ernbled in private session today to hear the report of the Self-constructed peace commit tee'' whose efforts to bring the sup porters and opponents of the Irish agreement are regarded aR the most hopeful factor in the troubled situa- ton. The outcome of the committees work last night was closely guarded secret but the best pinoion was that sts report to the Dali would no be unfavorable.
 Whether it's recomme endations would prove acceptable to the lead CTS of the opposing factions was another matter. It is taken for grant ed that acceptance of the treaty is Michael Collins and their party of treaty advocates and that major con- ceSSions must come from Eamonn De Valera'S side if an accomm odation is to be reached.
 Latest estimates of the strength Ef the opposing factions indicate that the majority for either side will be so small that a clear cut decision is i'm possible. For this reason the need of an agreement is urgently put forth.

was in six volumes, but later edi-
tion, which included letters and mis-
cellanies, increased il to thirteen,
the added material accounting for
the extra number OF volumes In
1890 there was another edition
brought out in London, and in 1907
that with Roger Ingpen's woodcut
illustrations. There are also reprints
edited by r. Carruthers, with wood
cut illustrations, Mowbray Morris
and Austin Dobson
One of the many curiosities about
these successive editions of the
Life" is that as time has rolled by
its title has grown markedly briefer.
Thus in the Temple Edition the
title is simply The Life of Samuel
Johnson by James Boswell" In the
first edition it reads: "The Life OF
Samuel Johnson. LID. Compre-
and numerous works, il chronology
cal order. A series of his epistolary
correspondence and conversations
with many eminent persons; and
various original pieces of his COM
position never before published.

Britain for the nearly half century
during which he flourished."

Professor Tinker adds: "In the sec

certain alterations in the interests

and then came the eleventh edition
in the same year, which was the
work of John Wilson Croker. whose
fame was to be associated with that
of the Life" forever after
Croker made an important con-
tribution to the ease of future
readers of Boswell in his first edi-
ton. This was, the division of the
work into chapters, something that
never had occurred to any one be-
fore him. Moreover, Crokers edi-
tion-which was in five volumes
was different from all its predeces-
sors in that the Tour" was inserted
in its chronological place in the
Life" instead of at the end. The
edition was the cause of Lord Ma
eaulay's famous and bitter attack in
the Edinburgh Re1>ieto on both
Croker and Boswell, and OF Carlyle's
defence of the biographer. A Croker
edition was brought out in Boston

the news Of his discovery Nand with
it the fame OF the young author. But
if he missed the point Boswell would
be no loser. for he would then be
regarded as the poets patron. In
either case, ii might be hoped, people
would talk about James Boswell.
Perhaps, on the whole, he preferred
the reputation of patron to that OF
poet. for he was ever ambitious to
be deemed a Macenas-a sufficiently
rare ambition in youth of twenty
summers. Indeed. he had already
appeared in this. role. His friend
Francis Gentleman. an actor of Glas-
gov, had published an edition of the
well known tragedy of ,Oroonoco' in
the previous year, and had dedicated /

of having written the dedicato~y
verses himself 1t is clear
that Boswell's ambition was peculiar.
He desired to be known as the asso-
ciate. of authors. The glory, to his
way OF thinking, is to move in the
world of literary men, to know what
is going on and in time, perhaps, TO
become an influence in the lives of
these great ones. 1t was his ambi-
tion to shine. but he preferred TO
shine in a reflected light. Many
years after relative remarked, He
preferred being a Snowman to keep

Writing thus 127 years after Bos-
wells death, Professor Chauncey

THE LIFE OF SAMUEL JOHNSON.
BY James Boswell. Edited by
Clement Shorter. In ten volumes.
Printed for Gabrie. Wells by
Doubleday, Page & Co.
TN 1851 there was published in
Edinburgh a thin volume in
quarto called AN Ode to Trag-
edy" and described on the title page
as the work of "a Gentleman OF
Scotland" that has become one of
the rarest books in the world. 1t
was the first of five books TO be pub
lished by the youth OF twenty who
was its author: and the fact of its
anonymity is testimony to what may
be said to have become the great rule
OF his later life, that what he did
was of more Importance than him.
self. This rare book indicates two
other qualities of its author, his love
Of fun and his seeming vanity, for it
is dedicated to James Boswell, Esq. =
The kindliest and most affectionate
biographer of the immortal "Bozzy"
that has ever written of him says Of
this joke of the dedication:
But one asks, was the reader sup
posed to discover the jest? Boswell,
] fancy. did not greatly care one
way or the other. He had given the
reader a hint that he was up to
mischief, for he wrote in the dedi-
catory letter: I make no doubt, Sir,
but you consider me as your very
good friend; although some people

is demonstrated, accurate judgment
Of BoswelPs career with certainty.
James Boswell did "move in the
world of literary men"-in fact, in
the highest; he did become an in
ffuence in the lives of these great
ones and he did shine in a reflected
light. But his own illumination
proved to be OF extraordinary bril-
liancy- The rays of his genius as a
writer first began TO glow in his
twenty-eighth year. when he pub
lished "An Account of Corsica, with
Memoirs of General Paoli" Tin 1859 !;
they reached still great brilliance
with the publication of a Journal o.
the Tour to the Hebrides" Tin 1850,
and they achieved their immortal
effulgence in 1891, when his life of
Samuel Johnson appeared on May 16.
Whatever Boswelrs ambition was 10
shine in reflected light tand the
title of his first real volume, with its
incorporated memoirs of General
Paoli, would seem to indicate this to
be true), it is a matter of record that
his journal like Account Of Corsica"
was the part of it that made the
most profound impression. And
there was no reflected light about
his Tour to the Hebrides." His
narrative completely eclipsed that
account written by DIR. johnson OF
which Boswell was the source and
handspring.
The New York herald., 1922-08-06

With the appearance of the Tour
TO the Hebrides" England was awak-
ened 10 the fact that something new
in the way of personal memoirs had
appeared on its literary horizon.
Nothing like it had ever been read"
says Professor Tinker. 1T became
at once a standard of indiscretion.
The New York herald., 1922-08-06

Two years elapsed before the sec
ond edition of the Life" appeared
and Boswell was al work on the third
edition when he died, on May 19.
1895. This was completed in 1893
by Malone, who also brought out
the fourth in 1904 and the fifth in
1907. BY this time the fame of the

bring out an edition in the United
States, and one was issued in Boston
in that year. edited by Blake and
Andrews. The edition prepared by
the authors son. James Boswell,
Jr.. (who was also the editor of
Malone's "variorum Shakespeare"D, /,

this there was an interval or twelve
years before another recorded edi-
