Those who go back to investigate find that, after leaving Boston, Poe was adopted by Mr. John Allan, of Richmond, Va., which accounts for the fact that, though a Northerner born, he always had such close un- derstanding of the South and sym- pathy for it. How He Left West Point. In 1829, when he was twenty, is found his name for the first time on the flyleaf of a volume of poems, “Al Aaraaf,” “Tamerlane,” ete. The Uni- versity of Virginia had been his alma mater; then he went to West Point, but the move was a mistake, and after spending a few months there} he asked his guardian te permit him to resign. The later peremptorily re- fusing, Poe took his own means of ending a regime that had become painful to him, and by neglecting all his studies finally got himself into such disgrace that he was cashiered. Thrown on his own resources, he took up literature as a means of live- lihood, and wrote in rapid ‘succession his wonderful stories of mystery, of which “Marie Roget,” the “Murders of the Rue Morgue,” “The Gold Bug,” «Black Cat,” “Pit and the Pendulum,” especially astonished the world. In New York he contributed to the New York Quarterly Review a series of searching eriticisms, then he went to Philadelphia to assume charge of the Gentleman’s Magazine, n Which He Did Most of His Writing~The On the occasion of his centenary, Misunderstood during all his un- the “The a jealous contemporary, poet, author of The celebration of the hundredth It was not without re- Poe's own statements, which in matters of this kind were prone to be inexact, are responsible for the confusion.

But the researches of Profes- the treacherous manager was provid- ing these enormous men in an effort to save paying the industrious Jakie. That night a hefty two hundred pounder climbed on the stage, to emerge from the wings in red tights five minutes later. “Mike O'Brien!” yelled the stage “] s’pose nobody but youse guys knows nothin’?” bitterly demanded Jakie. “I got a regular job at Shin- er’'s Bowery Theatre, beginnin’ Mon- day mat'nee, an’ meetin’ all comers.” “He's lose his nut complete,” de- clared Morris, the middleweight.

At the first clinch Jakie agitatedly whispered his story. “Knock me out in the next,” said Caesar; “don’t worry.” With a vicious right swing to the jaw Jakie sent “Mike O’Brien” to the canvas. Unwilling and slow as the referee’s count was, he did not rise, for Caesar would have stayed there all night. Wild bellows applauded Jakie, the marvelous young tiger. At ten-thirty Jakie and Mr. Mec- Google, keeping close to Caesar’s large bulk, heard the latter demand his little brother's money. It was given and the percentage also, for Caesar would not be denied. Then he took the exhausted juvenile away. “Next time never hold out to the It was Caesar Appell, who The wouldn't get a laugh in forty years. It’s punk. Where'd you get that at, anyway?” Jakie sullenly observed the sneer- ing faces of his relatives. He had not removed his hat and overccat upon entering the office, therefore hasty departure was easy. He got up. “All the know-it-all Appells kin go chase ’emselves fur all o’ me!” he ex- claimed. “Good night!” The door noisily closed after him. “That kid's sick, I'm afraid,” said Miah anxiously. “You don’t ’spose, now, that readin’ about lunatics and that has got him bug? ’Cause that talk he was shootin’ ain’t good sense.” The family, after earnest discus- sion of Jakie, decided that, angered at not having his name in the fight columns like his more famed broth- ers, Jakie had merely endeavored to impress them with his own im- sor Woodberry have shown to a cer- tainty that the date is January 19, 1908, a paragraph in a Boston paper of one month later proving it beyond a question. €ommemorative- Exercises Planned. Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York, the four cities in which Poe did most of his literary work, will all see commomorative ex- ercises held, and in the University of Virginia, whose most famed student Poe is, noted giants of literature will sound the praises of the greatest American post. In all the injustice done to men of genius the case of Poe is perhaps without a parallel. His gifts were undoubtedly his curse, for he never realized anything from them but woe. The frightful imagination that en- abled him to write stories of horror that have never been equaled was trouble enough for any one man, but ordinarily they would have brought consolation in the admiration of his fellowmen, and financial rewards that would have enabled the writer and his wife to live in comfort. “Passing Rich” on $10 Per.

They separated, those indi- viduals who lived by physical combat going to their training quarters, while Caesar went off to sign a couple of men for a preliminary at his next fistic entertainment. It was on the next Monday night that Maw Appell asked Paw Appell where Jakie had gone. With sons so plenteous paw had not missed Jakie. “Where, indeed, is it he has gone?” said he. “I do not see the boy again yet.” “He blows out wit’ some guy wear- in’ a big hunk of ice this afternoon.” Monte, who was not in active train- ing at the time, furnished this news. Paw Appell remarked that if the SR “OBLITERATIVE COLOR.” The Part It Plays in Animal Life and Defense, Whales, lions, wolves, deer, hares, mice; partridges, quails, sandpipers, larks, sparrows; frogs, snakes, fishes, lizards, crabs; grasshoppers, slugs, caterpillars—all these animals, and many thousand more, crawl and crouch and swim about their business, hunting and eluding, under cover of this strange obliterative mask, the poems, brought only $10 to the au- thor, yet to-day the original manu- script is valued at $10,000. For a quarter of a century after the death of this master worker in letters the enemies of Poe had the ear of the world. The poet was scarcely cold in his grave before R. W. Griswold had published his slanderous biogra- phy, which reekzd in every line with the hatred the biographer bore the critic who had so ruthlessly exposed the literary weakness of “His Poets and Poetry of America.” Poe and Griswold were friends, but the poet, as one of the most noted critics in the world, could not stifie his sense of honesty in commenting His romance with Sarah Helen Whitman is one of the most famed chapters of his life. He worshiped this brilliant woman, and her loyalty to him is proved by the vigor with which, after his death, she hastened to reply to every one of the slanders directed against his memory. Almost alone for a long time she bore the burden of battle against the detrac- tors of Poe, and her work is now bearing fruit in the changed attitude of the public mind to him. Baltimore, in whose streets Poe was found insensible in October, 1849, was first to publicly honor his memory, and a statue erected there in 1875 was the first memorial to his memory. Other honors are certain to be the outgrowth of the centenary, for the United States, having finally found its great poet, will now proceed to make atonement.—Washington Star. A ——————————-. STRUCTURE OF THE BRAIN. Enormous Number of Cells and Fi- bres Connecting Them. According to Dr. Edward A. Ayres (in Harper's Monthly) the human brain is composed of microscopic di- mensions. Each has a diameter of from 1-1400 to 1-3000 of an inch. Their number is variously estimated at from 612,000,000 to 9,200,000,- 000! Even 1,000,000 is a quantity almost beyond comprehension. Con- necting with many of the cells are delicate fibres which extend to other cells. Besides, there are telegraph wires, the nerves, which run down to or come from other parts of the body. One set of nerves proceeds from the skin, These are so close together that there is no peint on the surface of the body which can be touched ing a report to headquarters.

Jakie Appell, gloom in his young heart, was in an unventilated dress- ‘ing room at Shiner’'s Bowery Theatre, attended by a smashed nose, little eyed youth named Micked McGoogle. Messrs. Appell and McGoogle were slightly nervous, but they did not con- fess it. Outside the theatre two red lettered signs announced that Jakie ‘Appell, “champion featherweight” (of what locality was prudently omitted), was meeting all comers twice daily for three rounds. “It’s finding it,” said the burlesque ghow’s manager enthusiastically. «gtand these dubs off twice a day.

In pink trunks, an American flag belt and fighting shoes, Jakie bowed to his second audience at 9.45 p. m.

Nature, having thus visually un- substantialized the bodies of animals, so that if seen at all they look flat and ghostly, does not stop there. From solid, shaded bodies they have been converted, as it were, into flat cards or canvases, and, to complete the illu- sion of obliteration, pictures of the background—veritable pictures of the more or less distant landscape—have been painted on thesecanvases. Such, in effect, are the elaberate markings of field and forest birds.

It was not until many friends of Poe in life, many of those who knew his true life in many of the places mentioned by Griswold as scenes of incredible debauchery, began their campaign to clear his memory that the world saw the possibility that it had done the greatest of American literary geniuses tragic injustice. Enemies said that he starved and beat his wife in order to hasten her death, so that by studying her pangs he might get material for exact de- scription. Yet her mother, Mrs. Clemm, who lived with the pair dur- ing their married life and who knew how deeply the poet loved her, bore indignant witness to the slander of these stories, and responded with a hundred others in rebuttal, showing the man’s affection, the care he had for his wife, of how he cooked her meals in her illness, when poverty had brought them near actual starva- tion.
