At school they have to hold him back,
They are afraid bis head will crack
From intellectual might.

For years, with all the pains
I take their history to recall,
I cannot make it out at all

LITERARY NOTES.
The October number of McClure's
opens with an article on "The Strategy
of National Campaigns," attractively
illustrated by Jay Hambidge. The
frontis-piece, showing Governor Roose
velt and Senator Uanna in conference at
Republican National Headquarters, and
strikingly original portraits of Cleveland,
Blaine, Quay, Croker, Brjan and others,
lend especial interest to this paper on
the tactics of party managers in the
presidential campaigns of the past
twenty five years. The author has been
in the .thick of the fight and has been
brought very closely iulo contact with
the great leaders in the battles which he
describes.
Stevenson as a Talker.
All comment on the Stevenbon letters
made by the 'near friends of the author
centered, sooner or later, in the state
ment that they were, though incompar
able as letters, no better than his talk;
that they, indeed, represented just his
"talk. And when we are told that that
talk was the delight of his intimates we
can believe it without difficulty. It
might, in fact, be said that, among the
thinking, the sum of the effect produced
by these letters, and their chief value,
was to draw attention no how very good
a thing good talk is, and also to bring
about a realization of how rare, in our
English speaking world, such talk is get
ting to be. If Mr. Stevenson had been
a Frenchman, and if the public to which
hi6 letters were ultimately given had
been French, the discovery, by that
public, that he was wont bo spontane
ously to pour himself forth in his friend
ships, reserving himself so little, touch
ing so fearlessly upon all the things of
life that are near the quick, would prob
ably have caused little surprise. But
with the appreciation of the English
reading world a certain surprise has un
doubtedly been mingled. We have
had other letters of eminent writers
given to us in recent years, but they
contained no intimations of an ability or
a willingness to communicate thought
on all subjects, personal or universal,
with anything approaching Mr. Steven
son's abundance. From "The Point of
View," in the October Scribner's.
