The current of thought In grvnl
Mien'B minds runs in the onme direction,
It is said, but It Is seldom that thoro is
such ft remarkable Instance of It as bus
come to llffht recently. Few poems arc
more familiar to Americans than IWs
"Haven" with its sad refrain of "Never
more," and hitherto has had none, or
possibly only one, rival In sameness of
conception. A recent translation of
some ancient Chinese literature, how
ever, literature which Too could not
possibly have ploglarled.brlnRS to light
a poem almost the counterpart of tho
"Ravon" with Its moiancnoiy cam.
This was strange, but following close
.nn thin discovery comes another
revelation showing a poem written in
Italy years before l'ocs time, entitled
the "Parrott, between which ana me
"Haven" there is a startling likeness.
In tho "Haven" we have these lines:
Jiot 1lo l's ot-liini'i mini" lies not a
moment Mopped or Htiiyi'il I"',
lint with melnof lord or Indy peivlied upon
the lnt of I'h11ii, Jut uliove my elmni-
Pt-relied and tmt and notliliiK more."
In the "Parrot" we read this:
And the Parrot still Is posliiR, winking, hllnk-
lntf, dolnu,
On the marlile bust, Mvnervn, Jtit above my
oaken diMir,
A id his hellish eyes arc itleamlim like a devil
who I ilreamlnit,
W hile Hid splutteilnu. tlntterlnii, unipllglit
paints hlti shadow on t he lloor.
Tf nnt nlnfflai'ism there Is surely a
- i
wonderful connection between the work
ings of men's fancies
Ft Is fine to be a ruler and a lord
over men, to receive the homage' and
the service of a nation. Who would not
ne a king were opportunity offered? And
yet It is not a healthy position, nor a
happy one either. "For fifty years
have I reigned," writes a proud old king,
"surrounded by all that power and mon
ey could provide and yet tho duys of injr
nappiness have been just fourteen
Still a king can have some fun a private
man cannot. For Instance, an emperor
' of Home creates a horse a consul, ruler
over the known world, and Charles the
Second makes a piece of sirloin a knight
of old England. But kings have short
lives. The czars of Russia are great but
in the space of two centuries one has his
head cut off, ono Is stabbed, one choked,
another knocked down and trumped up
on, a few bulchei-ed, and one given ty
phold fever germs in tho water hedrank.
Caeser gets the homage of tho world
und dies of three and twenty dagger
wounds. Napoleon grows so great thut
he "embarrasses God," says himself that
he "disturbed the digestion of Europe,"
and dios of stomach trouble a prisoner
.onely and forsaken. A Lincoln, great
and pure, frees four million slaves, but
4los of a bullet wound. Mckinley, spot
less In character, Is acknowleged chief
ruler In the world, and dies by the hand
of a weak-brained fool. These are but a
few of many. Yet will men, happy In
domestic pursuits still eagerly grasp
for the pluce of fame, regardless of tho
lesson of the past
There Is a story told of an old Grecian
philosopher that on one occasion when
his state wag going to war, everybody
got badly excited, and there was run
ning hitherand thither, each seeming to
have the burden of defending the city
on his shoulders. Old Diogenes had a
cooler head and could really see no oc
casion for excitement, but not wishing
to be idle when all were working, he
got hit tub and began rolling It with
much clatter up and down the streets
of Athens. The methods employed by
modern sensational newspapers to ere
ate a sale for their journals much re
semhles the old philosopher's actions
The motto of the "yellow journal" Is
"excitement," whether thoro be any
event of Importance or not. And to get
the people excited every day articles
are wildly exaggerated, a lie la perpe
tra'ed or a rumor printed in the boldest
manner. Who Is to blame? The peo
ple, surely. Now that a national catas
trophe baa occurred, many hesitate not
to plaoe the whole blame on certain
journal noted for their freedom of
speech. Yet the people themselves
are responsible for those journals. For
while it Is true that the papers first
started the policy of making much ado
about nothing, the publlo with an ap
petite almost insatiable, has devoured
such items and editorials and asked for
more. When an actor is applauded, be
baa reason to feel his work acceptable;
when a newspaper sells well, it has rea
son to think that its methods are pleas
ing to the people. Who then can blame
them (or pushing farther and farther
tbs license of free speech, reaching at
last virtual anarchy.
