He also imparted the cheerful information that if the policeman had not arrived so soon and there had been any more fooling he would have winged a dog- taker or two. ‘ TO CARFARE REDUCTION | Eureka Valley and Park Lane Tract Improvement Club Enters a Protest.

Poetry is nourished by the unseen | forces of emotion atd aspiration, and our | practical age has been eager above all in | the giscovery and application of the me- | chafileal forces of physical nature. Science | rather than tmagination has ruled the day. Ard yet we have needed poets. and they have arisen—no one poet, perhaps, like Milton in the seventeenth century or Dante in the fourteenth, but real and great poets who will aot die. Surely this Means that humanity has not become less sensitive to the spiritual universe as ci { trol over the forces of the physical uni- verse widens and deepens.. Tennyson and Browuning are doubtless the greatest poets of the Victorfan era. They began to write first; they kept on longest; their work had more volume, more variety in its beauty, more express- jveness, than that of any other men. Their first books struck quite new notes. Can we say that now of any one among the young poets who are asking our at- | tention year by year? Tennyson's first voluma came out in 1833, i | i i ms in it bore (he mark of youth, e deeady they showed that fairy fineness | of ear which was to characterize him to | the end. Several of them expressed the mood of inward brooding which has ml " belonged to our century.

'Clough died in ¥5d1; Arnold had turned away & as his swan song Thyrsis,” an elegy on his friend, and had devoted himself to his lluminating work as a critic in prose. Tennyson and Browning had been before the public for fifteen years when thesa poets began to write; their poetic expres- sion continued for nearly thirty years longer. - About the time when Arnold and Clough fell on silence there made itself heard in our poetic literature a new cry—the cry for beauty. Evolutiona f science, with its ion for investigation; the democ- its enthusiasm for averages, e in full swi ut there arose a pro- not to be s fed. a protest that as- tted as the rightful attitude wonder ither than investigation, and devoted it- self to the quest of the rare, the strange, the lovely. rather than to the analysis of the commonplace. The prose writings of Ruskin, widely read since the early forties, had done much to stimulate this mood; much, too, had been done by the pre-Raphaelite movement in painting: more still, perhaps, was due to the strons, inevitable reaction from the ugliness and vulgarity which since the introduction of machine manu- facture had been submerging England. Rossetti, Morris, Swinburne, were the three poets who dedicated themseives to this movement for the revival of beauty— knights of the romantic temper we well might call them. Two of them, Rossetti and Morris. expressed their feelin, through_visible art as well as throus verse. Rossetti through strange, troul ling pictures: Morris through varied de- lightful experiments in the decorative arts. The lovely poems of all three, charged as they were with color and pas- Sion, formed & welcome interiude indeed in_our age of prose. Yet they were ex- otics rather than natural growths. Such poems as Rossetti's “Rose Mary,” Swin- ne's "“}}“‘85'3 in (‘allé'don" or Morris' Earts aradise” could express only a | few of the manifold cravings of m life. and these not probably the most sig- nificant. _This school, toe, soon waned.

Novelists, essay- ists. as well as poets, appeared ahd van- ished. Ruskin and Arnold replaced Car- Iyle and Newman as leaders, and their power in turn was in_the late eighties passing to its decline. It was not till 1389 that Browning died: in Tennyson's spirit ““crossed the bar” of Time. Within the last ten vears only have we been able to look at their work as a whole, to “diseern, compare and judge at last” their power and their message. Note—This study will be concluded to- morrow.
