dead Nebulae."

THERE has been Photographic a
most singular object in the con-
stellation Taurus, the appearance OF
which suggests the term dead
nebula" 1t is a long, struggling
mass. which seems to shut out the
stars behind II. All round il the
stars are strewn thickly, but within
its boundaries very few appear and
il is suggested that these may lie On
this side of il. At one point there IS
a small. bright nebula. which grad
ually fades out. The feebler p"r-
tions of the nebula would almost
suggest that a large nebula exists
here, but that the major portion or
it is dead or non-luminous. In som.e|
places the dark object is manifeshy
darker than the starless parts Of the
sky around It.

T is rather remarkable TACT that
the man who wrote Home.
Sweet Home" never had home
L of his own. during his last forty
years.
John Howard Payne was somewhat
of a wanderer all of his life, without
any settled place which he might call
home The events in his career are
few and of no great interest He
was born in New York city in 1l92.
and was educated at Union College.
which afterward erected an elaborate
gateway to his memory. For thirty
years after leaving college he was
dramatic author and actor both in
New York and Europe, especially in
London. In 1S41 he was appointed
American consul to Tunis, Africa,
where he died in 1852. after service
of eleven years.
While the life of John Howard
Payne. perhaps. seemed to him
failure still il was so rich in one gift
to the world that his name rests
among the immortals in American
letters today. The world has reaped
its richest harvests of music and
literature out of the wrecks of great,
unhappy lives.
After silent exile of thirty years
| the body of John Howard Payne was
| brought back to this country through
the philanthropic efforts of w. w.
Corcoran of this city. and buried here
in Oak Hill cemetery. The occasion
became one of worldwide interest,
for his song had found place in the
hearts of the people of every land.
The body arrived in this country
amid impressive ceremonies. and per
haps no American. dead or alive, ever
returned TO his native shores under
such honored circumstances. Now
there stands beside that grave
structure of pure white marble,
which was built by thousands of
Voluntary contributions. Its top is
surmounted by a life-size bust of the
poet, and underneath is lettered this
epitaph:
John Howard Payne
Author Of Home. Sweet Home
Born June 0, 1T92-Died April 9. 1852.
Sure. when they gentle spirit fed
To realms above the dome.

1oHN HOWARD PAYNE'S books are
J hardly known today, but his one
song is sung around the world. Its
composition was another evidence of
how great poems come to the world
through inspiration. 1t is said that
when he wrote the song. part of
the play "Clari," he was sorely dis
couraged. lonely and poor. He felt
every line. In his soul was longing
for the one thing he did not have-a
home. The moment was an inspired
one and out of his own poverty. lone
Illness and misfortune came the song
which has soothed the souls of mil
lions all over the world.
The song went through several
, changes and adaptations. but the
form given below Is the original as
sung by Miss NJ. Free in Payne's
operatic play. "Clari. the Maid Of
Milan" in 1928.
