tial and not a mere flash in the pan.
Volume after volume came from his
facile pen, marked with indubitable
authority, serious purpose and un-
failing charm, the amplitude of his
knowledge being matched by the ease
and distinction of his English style.
Naturally, number of his stories
were of maritime life in the East, in
which he drew unrivaled pictures of
the effect of the climate and of con-
tact with the natives upon European
visitors and residents. Two of them
told of the savage life of the Kongo
region and two others were studies of
anarchical attempts at revolution,
while yet others were devoted to the
great passions of humanity which
control life and form the insoluble
problems alike of romance and of
philosophy.
Intensely English.
Conrad was, after reaching mature
years, intensely English in thought
and sentiment, regarding the English
language as the worlds nobleSt and
most beautiful vehicle of expression,
although he never lost his love for
his native land or his interest in its
welfare. He had a delightful home
near Hythe, in Kent, where he lived

Court by Judge Kathryn Sellers was
received today at the Office of United
States Attorney Gordon from the
Mothers Council of which Mrs. L. NJ.
Clements is president, Mrs. c. f.
Winters legislative representative
and Mrs. George Pardee secretary.
The letter asks for an investigation
by the grand jury of the charges,

was the paradoxical career of The
odor JoZef Conrad CorseniowSki,
known to the world and literary
fame as Joseph Conrad. He belonged,
too, to that race and country which
for more than a century seemed to
solace itself for it's political and ma
terial martyrdom by producing sue
cession of unsurpassed geniuses in
various departments of literature and
the arts
He was born in Poland. in one of
the southeastern or Ukrainian prov
inces, on December G, 1857, the son of
poet and critic of distinction, who
established at Warsaw a literary ard
political review with disastrous re-
suits. Just before the Polish upris-
ing of 1862 the magazine was sup
pressed and the father and mother
were exiled to Siberia, where the
latter soon died. The boy was per-
mitted to remain in Poland, however,
under the care of his mothers broth
er, and was educated in a school at
Cracow, learning French in addition
to his native tongue.
Becomes French Sailor.
He early developed a passion for
the sea, and also militant spirit,
and conceived the notion of entering
the Russian navy. Instead, he en-
tered the French mercantile marine
and made several voyages, including G
one to the Gulf of Mexico.
At the age of 20 he visited Loves
toft, England, and there transferred
his activities to the British merchant
service in an humble capacity on a
coasting collier running between
Lowestoft and Tyne. A little later he
received the papers of a mate and
set out on a voyage to the Far East
where he came into intimate contact
with the scenes and people which fill
the pages of some of his best works
The story of that eventful voyage is
told in his story of Youth"
Commanded Sailing ships.
In 1884 he renounced his Russian
allegiance and became a British sub
ject, adopting the modified anc

Anglicized form of his name. Joseph
Conrad.
His experiences at sea ranged from
the laborious and often most unpleas-
ant tasks of an ordinary sailor up
to the command of steam and sailing
vessels in the Pacific, chiefly in COM
merce between Great Britain and
Australia. Conrad remained in that
engagement until 1896, when he was
almost 40 years old. Several years
before that date. however, he began
writing, though not offering any of
his works for publication, nor, in
deed, letting any one else know about
it.
Conrad's Literary Venture.
One evening in 1893, however, when
he was captain of a ship bound for
Australia, he got to chatting on lit
erary topics with one of his passen-
gers-a Cambridge man-and asked
him if he would read a manuscript
which he had written. The reply was,
of course, favorable. and highly fa-
vorable was the critical opinion of it
which the delighted reader expressed.
The manuscript was that of AL
mayors Folly a romance of the
time his health had been gravely i'm
paired by exposure to pestilehce while
in command of a river steamer on the
Kongo, and the good opinion which
his friend expressed of "Almayer' 5
Folly" encouraged him presently to
forsake the sea and to marry and
settle down in England as writer OF
books.
First Book Well Received.
"Almayers Folly" was published
in 1895 and was well received. The
next year came AN Outcast of the
Islands" In 1898 he divided the an
nual purse given by the Academy OF
London for the most worthy literary
production, his Tales of Unrest
thus being bracketed with Maurice
Hewletts Forest Lovers" and Sill
Sidney Lees Life of Shakespeare"
