HENRY CtAY LUKENS,
'Trratle Enrique," a Teleran Journalist
of These Time.
Henry Clay I.ukcns, who, under hU
own name and his pseudonym of "Erratic
Enrique," Is nationally known as a
humorist, poet and paragraphcr, was
born In the old Northern Liberties, Phlla
ilelphta. Aug. 18, 16!I8. Ills family is of
Helland extraction, having ceme from
Crcfcld, new Rhenish Prussia, late In the
(Seventeenth century and settled with
ether Mennonlte followers of William
Pcnn in the then wilderness of Pennsyl
vania. It prospered in the new rerld,
mid has today numereus descendants in
every state of the Union. Of Its number
was Jehn Lukcns, who succeeded Nicholas
Scull, In the colonial period, as surveyer
general of Pennsylvania, and who was
noted In theso days as an "Indian talker."
Anether member of the family was the
scientist Isaiah Lukcns, an inttmate friend
and eolaberer of David Rlttenhouse. Still
another Is the elder brother of "Erratle

Charles T. Ilroeks as ene of the ablest In
this land.
Henry Clay Lukcns received a public
school education, nud from the first dis
played a strong leve for literature and a
uoiaeio power or
wit and humor.
At the age of 10
he entered the
literary field of

early as 1858 he was associated with
Geerge Alfred Tewnscnd, the fameu
"Gath," lu the conduct of The Scheel
Journal, ene of the first impers deveted
te educational subjects. The roll of the
papers with which he has been connected
or te which he has contributed Is n aufll
cletrt commentary upon the arduous labor
which has characterized thegtealcr por
tion of his life, and Includes all the prin
cipal Philadelphia or New Yerk dallies

the Historical Society of Pennsylvania,
With his artist friend, the late James A.
Wales, he organized and was ene of the
first staff of Judge In 1891, and his ox ex
cellent humorous work, In prese and

volumes of Puck.
In 1877 he roecived a flattering offer f e
Ieln the editorial staff of Tbe New Yerk
)ally News, then conducted iir TUmamlu
Weed and Nathan S. Merso. He accepted,
and founded the "Pith nud Point"
column, which in a short time became
famous, nnd which for many years wei
the chief vein lu which tired editors and
would be humorists found the materials
for their fuu and jokes. This column con cen
Blsted of quotations and original work In
the proportion at about one te thrce, and
was deveted te a pleasant satirizing of
passing events nnd the foibles of the day.
In this column he wen the geed feellng of
the Journallstle fraternity by Invariably
giving credit te the author of every line,
no matter hew distant or Insignificant.
.
Se great was the success of "Pith and
Point" that Mr. Lultens complied n little

under the tltle of "Jets and Flashes."
This charming brochure made n great hit,

uaylugs or Jehn Sqnlbeb's "Phccnlxleua."
As a versifier Mr. Lukens' fame has been
pbsurcd by that of the humorist. He
lias been recognized and appreciated by
the critics, and his biography appears In

dcllcate, moledlous, nud usually full of
both sentiment nnd humor.
He Is a very clever prese writer, bringing
te the drowsiest subject the delicate
humor and poetlo thought which are te
marked In ether fields. Ills versatility is
best illustrated by the fact that he has
written Christmas stories for The Yonkers
Gazotte, narratives of travel for The New I

A VISIT TO THE "UNIVERSAL PRO

Ona of the VTenitrr if I lie World of
Trade The rameu lien Marclia of
J'arls Outdone A Whole Congeries of
Blerrs.
Whltnley's establishment Is one of the
wonders of the world of trade. Compare Cempare
tlvcly few Americans visit it, as It is far
away from what Is known as the Ameri
can beat I. c from the Langham
hotel te the Metropele. Compared
te the trade kingdom ever which
a slngle proprietor, William Wldtcley,
rules, such room overgrown dry goods
Meres as the Leuvro and the Ben Marche
lu Paris are but slmple affairs. Whlto Whlte
ley's Is net a Btere, but a whele congeries
of stores, each as accessible te but as dis
tinct from the ether as the dining room hi
from the parlor ou a fleer with folding
doers. What In the usual mil of dry
goods stores occnples a counter or at
most but a room such as the silk depart
ment, the linen department, the enstume
department, etc. has at Whltelcy'a a
large and Imposing stere te itself. The
jewelry store Is a superb establishment,
the furniture house is lnacnlflrent rhlna.
glass, Ironmongery, dressmaking, Bowleg
machines, coiffures, toys, Japanese and
Indian curies, each and all have stores
deveted exclusively te themsclves, large
onenlncs giving communication through
the entlre rerics of establishments.
ADDITIOXAI. ESTAnUBttMENTS.
This would be wonderful enough, but
thore are surprises at Whltcley's; a pro pre
vision 6 tere of cxtcnslre dlmeuileus ad
joins au excclleut restaurant, the restau
rant leads into the aviary, conservatory
and live stock establishments. Thore 1j
a well supplied weed aud coal ofUce. Pi
anos are upstairs in a stere of their own;
near them is a large hall, decorated with
lings, statuary, tables and chulrs In pro
fusion. Here a dinner of sevcral hunured
covers mny be given, or ordered for any
place, town or country, with every acces
sory, from the banquet Itself te the
waiter who serves it; all provided by
Wlilteley. I had nearly forgotten te iiame
a charming picture gallery, where many
original works of great beauty are dls
played, and where orders are taken for
copies of any masterplece en the walls of
any of the great galleries of Europe.
Wlilteley I- also a banker. Yeu may buy
or sell meney en his premises. Yeu may
take your passage by nuy steamer for any
pert. Yeu may hlre a servant; bury a do de
ceased friend: put your belongings up at
auction; purchase, sell, build or take down
n heuse. In short, thore is net a Blngle
transaction In llfe relating te trade which
Whlteley Is net willing te make for you.
Ne wender he calls himself "the unfver
al provider." Such a business as White
ley's must speedily make a man a bank
rupt or a millionaire; and a disaster has
net overtaken him, It Is presumed 'that
Whltoley has a geed account at his own
and ether banks. Ills establishment has
BUfferwl frequently from fires, whose
fitraugely poAtBieni rwnrre ce inslst
ibly suggests Incendiarism.
In the matter of cheapness I find very
little difforence between Whlteley'a and
ether establishments which nre net es
pecially dovetod te wealthy customers, as
nre GfUew's In the fill nit ure line, and
Lewh & Allcnby In the dry goods. An
honest prlce prevails, and if an American
visitor bech anything he or she likes nt
Whltelny's, I would odvlsehltnor her te
purchase It without further ado, ns it
would be a waste of tlme te run all ever
IiOnden te try te find the same artlcle at
a lower price.
AT TUB HON MAncnu.
Fer ene American who ha3 heard of
Whlteley's In iAmden, ntnety and ulne
have heard of the Ben Marche in Purls.
Persons who knew no ether slngle word
lu French nre tin nre that beu marche
menus "cheap." This famous stere Is In
deed a marvelous place. Outside of a

A r-evalllng 3Iusculluu Tad.
A prevailing mascnllne "craze" is for
each mau of fashleu te wear n distinctive
llower. This is a notion from "across
Bcas." Tlie Emperor Fiedcrick wero con
tinually, In his buttonhole, a modest
cluster of violets, just as his father was
always decorated with the corn llewcr.
A well known society man of today is
nevcr sccu without a sitigle Ivy leaf en
the lapel of his coat, nud another wears,
invariably, a whlte rese, be small us te be
barely net Iceable. By fall it la propho prepho prophe
sled that military fashions for men will
be the rage. This Is also a "fad" bor
rowed from our foreign cousins, who are
ppertlng extensively what they term "La
Revanche" styles. Tlie carnation, the em
blem of "glory," glows In triumph en the
breast of every patriotic Frenchman.

and stewed away nn umbrella In tlie

te his buttonhole, another cord secured
his colored glasses, and a field glass was
blung upeu his back.
"1 de hoie there won't be many mus mus

"I hae a bottle of camphor In my

"If they are very troublesome we can

WHAT IS LITERARY MERIU
-.
TTfcat Is the Agreed Vpen BtaadarsIS-la
triaile IJlerary Werth.
What constitutes "literary merit?"
Each editor thinks lie knows. Be does
each literary critic. Se de the peeple who
will tell you that the poems or essays or
books that live are possessed of It. There
is a sort of agreed upeu standard, known
In a vague way by literary people and
represented by our best periodicals. Br
all means keep this standard high, and
keep yourselves up te the standard) but
at the same time, ence In a while, let
veur mind dwell upon the lessen con
tained in the parable of the widow's mlte.
If poems or prese writings had intelli
gence, and could think for themselves,
there would be ene infallible test for In
trinsic value that they might append te
themselves after they had steed the fnr fnr
ther test of tlme: "Only remembered for
what I have done." Fer Instance, several
years age a little poem appeared In ene of
our dally papers from a local author. I
cannot think he was paid for it, nor can
I think any ether paper ever thought It
worth copying for its own columns. I
well remember glancing ever it with a
little bit of contempt in my mind and a
fjoed deal of Indifference, and feeling sure
t was quite without "literary merit." It
was about the "baby boy," a very hack
neyed subject, you will all agree.
Well, the ether day my pride of Judg-
111:111 iweivui a Humiliating blew, A
woman, geed and true, In the humble
ranks of llfe, had seen this poem. He
own babv boy was only a few weeks old,
and perhaps she had let creep Inte her
heart the thought that he was something
of a burden, with poverty and hard work
pressing upon her each day. The little
poem struck a higher, belter chord tlian
that, and the tune of her thoughts grew
Bwcctcr. She cut it out of the paper and
tucked it Inte the sewing machine drawer,
and learned It, a line at a tlme, as she sat
at work. Ner did it step there; around
among the neighbors it went, and brought
many a blessing te the little babies in the
peer, crowded houses.
Questien: "Did the poem have literary
merit?" Certainly; Its slmple phraseology,
its humble truth, its honest purpese,
Bpoke te the mind as well as the heart of
theso people as ene of Browning's sonnets
could net have dene.
Again: Thore Is a housekeeping paper
Mibllshedin ene of our western cities.
"Very ordinary," I have been went te pro pre pro
neunco It, and after a cursory, Indifferent
perusal I have sent away my numbers te
a little housekeeper en a Virginia farm.
She is a brave little woman, left, at the
age of 14, by the death of her mother, te
bring up the three younger children and
de the housework. Very limited was her
schooling, of ceurse. Fer two years, new,
she has had this housekeeping Journal,
and I have had her occasional letters. And
hew she has grpwn mentally I It must
have been the "literary merifin that
paper that I called ordinary, and could net
waste my tlme upon.
There Is apparent literary value and an
Intrinsle ene, I feel bound te admit.
There may be two ways of considering
whether a poem or a book lives. If it is
printed ever and ever again at the do de
mand of the people, all the world knows
it lives. But it sometimes happens that
it la printed only ence, Is caught up by
Bome heart, pasaea ea ami en In word or
Influence, and the geed it does nurer dies
Is Itnet really "literary merit" that makes
It llve the mode of Its expression as well
as its inherent thought? 1 am asking; for
at the very end of my remarks, with a
full recognition of the value of high
standards, with a Just respect for editors,
critics and cultivated readers, but with
nn equally ardent appreciation of compar
ative value, I humbly confess that 1 de
net knew what "literary merit" really is.

In a Mexican Murket Square.
Passing en through the market place I
emerged suddenly from a side exit into
the matket square. Just In front of me
Bat four or five groups surrounding a
bunch of Bmeklng faggots, and as I ap ap ap
proaehed them a Httle girl or boy would
step forward and offer for sale strings of
flass beads or baskets of images made by
ndlans from clay. I bought several of
these images and narrowly escaped being
cheated In the process, for the little rogues
who nre playing merchants knew when
they ha 0 a stranger te deal with, and,
although theysmtle at you, showing their
whlte, pearly teeth, they will give you
the wrong change if they can.
Just beyend these groups I saw ether
groups seated about large, square holes,
which had been dug lu the ground. At
first I could net understand this, but
after awhile I found out that they were
engaged in roasting the century plant.
The holes In the ground were apparently
threo feet deep and perhaps four feet
across the top. Inslde these holes they
had placed a half dozen stalks of the plant
ever Broeking faggots, and from the
smoldering fire thore issued a velume of
Binoke and the sound of escaping pulque.
By and by a Mexican strede up. threw
down a three cent piece, uud, without a
word, one of the ugile boys jumped into
the hele, chopped off a bit of the weed
aud delivered it te the purchaser, who
went away munching en it as though it
was the leg of a chicken. The jutce of
the maguey Is swoet and intoxicating, and
a great many of the Mexican peeple are, I
regret te say, slaves of its power. "R.

In a Monaen Sunday Scheel.
It is easy te sce hew largely the foreign
dement prevails here anion' the Mor
mons. There wcre lu Utah I .'1880 about
44,000 ferelgucrs te 100.000 natives, and
Bluco then there have been about 18,000
Mormein immigrants. These immigrants
are chiefly English and Scandinavians,
and you may ste Swedish faces every
where. In the Sunday school which I
visited there was a Snedish class which
was taught in the Swedish language
This Sunday school is worthy of men
tion. After the administration of the
sacrament the school divided up into
classes, and In these classes the sexes
wcre always separated. During my visit
ene of the teachers kept constantly with
me as I went from class te class, and it
seemed te me that the teaching was
largely for the benefit of the visitors rather
than for the scholars. I was offered
the "Boek of Mermen" and asked te read
with the pupils in turn as the reading
went around the class. After reading a
chapter a yeuug man explained it much
us we Gentiles de lu eue of our Christian
prayer meetings, and he told us hew u
branch of the Israelites came te the
American continent aud hew the Lord
again appeared upon the earth and chese
his apostles here. He told hew the rcc rcc
erd of his teaching In America among
the aboriginal tribes was transcribed upon
the golden plates of the "Boek of Mor Mer Mer
eon, and haw these were found In the
Btate of New Yerk. It was Interesting as
a romance, but I grew tired bofero he was
through and left. Salt Lake Letter.

it really beems unnecessary. The city

them at their own expense when worn
