A great deal was happen- ing in Europe when Lamb wrote his | unagitated studies cf beggars, and | chimney-sweepers, and poor relations; | but amid all the turmoil he witnessed | with seeming unconcern there was | no plunge into barbarism, nothing' to take him by the throat, and, strangle his serenity. , The poet is, and has always been, entitled «to live in his’ own world—if he can. Herrick pub- lished his “Hesperides” a few months before Charles the First was behead- ed and awakened to the full signifi- cance of Puritanism only when the Puritans, who had scant regard for Corinna’s May-flowers, or for Julia’s pretty furbelows, thrust him from his pleasant vicarage. The essayist has only the common world in which to rejoice or suffer K with the men and women who fill it. The element of artifice in his work unfits it for bit- ter and blinding truths. . If we open an index to periodical literature, and see how many columns are headed “European War,” we understand why there is no room left for the essay. If we look next at the columns bear- ing the sub-title, K “Atrocities,” we know why there is no heart left in the essayist. i - ! Some Land Admirals. | (Westminster Gazette) It would be interesting to know { whether in the case of an attempted i landing on the coast of Yorkshire the i new Earl of Londesborough would be | called upon to exercise his hereditary and drastic powers over ‘“buccaneers’ by virtue of his office of Admiral af the Yorkshire Coast, a rank conferred on the first Lord Londesborough | nearly a century back. There are quite {2 number of these admirals in the | peerage still. Lord Mount Edgcumbe 1is Vice-Admiral of Cornwall, Lord ! Lonsdale is Admiral of the Coasts of | Cumberland and Westmorland, Lord ‘ Mostyn is Vice-Admiral of North Wales and Carmarthen, and so on. Some of these hereditary titles are Coasts and Isles. _ An Optimist on Russia. (Kansas City Star) Now . we -are beginning to under- stand the American who had been studying conditions in Russia this summer whom®Henry Allen met on the steamer. “How long will it take Russia to establish a stable govern- ment?”’ asked Mr. Allen. “Well, I'm an optimist on, Russia, you know,” was the reply. “I believe they can do it in a generation.” MINNIS LATEST TO JOIN UNCLE SAM Stuffy McInnis of the Athletics has decided to join Uncle Sam’s forces. | Stuffy is to become a yeoman at the | He is the sixth | Charleston navy yard. player of the Athletics to Jjoin the cclors.
