There was a strange hit of literary in-
terest in a slander suit brought into court
this week by Mrs. H. D. Traill, widow of
the late author and editor whose name
was almost as well known in America as
here. He died rather suddenly, and a cer-
tain Miss Vincent is alleged by the widow
to have remarked: “Mr. Traill was a
much injured man; it is shocking how he
died. Rather a mystery, is it not?” Miss
Vincent, at whose house Mr. Thraill had
once lodged, denied that she had made
this aspersion and Mrs. Thraill failed to
get damages.
E. F. Benson, whose “Scarlet and Hys-
sop” bids fair to reach the success of its
author’s first hit, “Dodo,” is at work on
novel and has finished a play for
Mrs. Patrick Campbell—his first play. He
is also writing a novel to be called “The
Book of Months,” an autobiographical
story of a man’s life for a year. He says
although everybody recognized his
“Dodo” as the brilliant Miss Margot Ten-
nant, now Mrs. Asquith, it is a fact he
met that dashing lady until the

have opposed further opening the way to
the private of the army, and army officers
have never looked with favor upon the
plan, as they feel this places a discount
on the West Point education if it is shown
that excellent material can be secured
from the ranks.
Army men contend that the enlisted man
is more likelF’ to be a martinet than is
I the West Pointer, and there is a preju-
dice against them on account of the lack
of training. The present provision is a
harmless appearing clause, and seems to
have escaped the attention of the senate
military committee. It may be passed
over as unimportant by the conferees. It
is, however, of vital interest to the young
| man entering ,the., army with the purpose
of working his way through the ranks to
commission; aJrid to those other soldiers
who, by faithful'service, expect to receive
preference over tlie civilians by competi-
tion for army commissions. It is contend-
ed that the adoption of the clause would
practically imply that the government1 has
broken its contract with the enlisted men,
who have been led to believe that under
certain conditions they would have a pros-
pect of reward.

Saturday Evening Post.
As commander of the European squad-
ron, Rear Admiral Arent Schuyler
Cro-wninshield. recently advanced from
the bureau of navigation, will have op-
portunity to demonstrate anew his abili-
ties as an executive officer.
By many the admiral is regarded as a
glim man, but although he is, when oc-
casion seems to require it, rather formid-
able in manner, he is usually quite the
reverse, and is not insensible to humor.
One day a correspondent, now to Wash
ington, but who had previously known
the secretary of the navy, went to the
bureau of ^navigation to get Admiral
Crowninshield’s picture. The journalist
^went to Secretary Long’s office to get an
introduction to the admiral who, he had
been told, was not readily approachable
by ncwspiapei' men. The secretary and
h’s clerks were out at luncheon. Admiral
Crowninshield had stepped in and wras at
Mr. Long's desk awaiting that official’s
return. The correspondent, mistaking
him foi a private secretary, said airily.
“Is the grim destroyer in his conning
t'lw’er?”
“The which in his what?” asked the
admiral. <
“That devourer of hapless literary
•wiglits—Crowninshield—is he in his of-
fice?”
‘ Not just at present,” responded the
admiral, smilingly. “What did you wish
to see him about?”
“Wanted a picture of his tremendous
highness for publication In the—”
. “I can tell you who his photographer
is.” chuckled the admiral, courteously
viiting down an address, ‘ but I happen
to know that Ci owninshield hasn’t any
prints of himself on hand just at present,
the popular clamor for his particular
style of beauty having exhausted the suf-
plj.”

There is something rotten in the Den-
mark of the Houston Post. Somebody is
putting up a mean jeb on Clarence Ous-
ley, managing editor of the little sheet
at the headwaters of the Buffalo, and
trying to make us fellows down this way
believe that the Post” has scooped in the
only real live, scintillating, irridescent
genius that was ever hatched in a news-
paper office. Not content with permit-
ting the country press to boost the
brilliantine Clarence high up on a pink-
tinted cloud of rara avis perfection, the
Post gives these illuminations of the
comet-like effulgence of Clarence the
benefit of its alleged wider circulation.
Here is a sample found in the Post this
morning:
Clarence Ousley, the greatest writer in
Texas (excepting, of course, Gleen Beck-
. ham of the Flatonia Record), is making
the editorial page of the Houston Post
scintillate with brilliancy—Schulenburg
fS un.
,Not content with that, the Post gives
us this, fresh from the El Paso Times:
:Clarence N. Ousley, managing editor of
the Houston Post, has been elected presi-
dent of the Texas Press association. No
more scholarly gentleman and able writer
has ever filled that office, and it has been
occupied by some of the brightest men in
Texas, among them being the courtly and
witty Dr. W. M. Yandell, deceased; the
dignified and astute R. M. Johnston and
the brilliant and versatile Juan S. Hart.
Now wouldn’t that make you throw a
fit? Even the redoubtable CoK Johnston
bleaks in to the compliment business and
gives the whole thing the entire benefit
of the w'ondeiful circulation of the great
Texas daily.
Now this thing is all right to fellows
who cnly know the brilliantine Ousley as
an abstract proposition. But we are not
of that sort. We are acquainted with him
in the way a fellow is acquainted with
the man who owns the sheet on which he
labors and who pays him his customary
stipend. Ousley still owns The Tribune.
But The Tribune can not stand for the
brilliantine business of the Post. It can
not sit supinely by and have the Post
swipe all the nice things said of Ousley
end neglect the fact that the only record
of real brilliantine business Ousley ever
made was done right here in this very of-
fice. The Tribune believes in honoring
its sons, but it objects to having them
grow unduly proud. Therefore The Tri-
bune respectfully relates that not more
than a week ago a gentleman who is high
in the councils of local literary lights
came into the office to see the aforesaid
brilliantine Ousley. He was told that the
t’/oresaid had been in Houston these
many moons, and was asked what he
.wanted.
"I want to congratulate him on this
iec’itorial,” the lit. light said.
Then a great truth dawmed upon us and
we fairly swelled and puffed and burst
and slopped over with pride as we hurled
the lit. light out of the office. Ousley
had never seen or heard of that editorial
and we did not propose to stand that
much ti illiantine.
But such is fame. Such is the way the
But all ihe same we know
Ousley and do not think ne Is responsible
for the brilliantine bursts in the Post. He
wms here, with us, in the humble capacity
of Kick-a-Poo-Walla-Pops-King -of-the-
AVam-M'ams, it is true. But not once, as
the office cat will bear meowing witness,
did he ever dare to perpetrate any
bi’iliiantine business. Therefore we are
constrained to remark that there is
something rotten in the Post’s Denmark
and don’t believe Ousley did it.

literature except for writers of the first

pride, as he once told an interviewer, in
being the first to grasp the fact that the
profitable novel must be “the sort of novel
that the grisette would, spread out on the
workshop table and read while she was
eating her pennyworth of fried potatoes.”
The fruit of that discovery was nearly a
million dollars received for a hundred long
novels published serially in French news-
papers. He wrote fifty plays, too, and
must have turned the wheels of his fancy
at a steady speed that would have excited
the admiration of Anthony Trollope or
Miss Braddon.
Montepin’s record for the output of plays
is beaten by Theodore Flamm, who has
just celebrated his 80th birthday in Vien-
English-speaking folks know little
of him, but he is one of the most popular
of Austrian authors. In the course of his
56 years he has turned out more than a
hundred plays, most of them comedies
and most of them successful; has written
a lot of books and has turned out a vast
mass of newspaper articles.

It is stated that
the book on which Zola has been at work
for some time is to be a romance of mod-
ern Judaism, and with his customary care
for minute details, he has been traveling
about in the neighborhood of the Holy
Land to get his atmosphere. At latest
accounts he was staying at Jerusalem.
Rudyard Kipling, sunburnt and vigor-
out, arrived back in E'nglarid this week
from his fourth of fifth visit to the Cape
Accompanying him were his wife, son,
daughter and father. The chief steward
of the ship now cherishes as precious
possessions bills of fare with such direc-
tions as these in Kipling’s small, nervous
handwriting:
“Consomme (put an egg in it).”
“Chicken (slice off the right breast;
three small potatoes).”
“Lettuce salad (white leaves from the
middle of the vegetable).”
King Oscar of Sweden, besides writing
the autobiography mentioned last week,
will come into competition with the French
poets soon with a volume of verse from
his own royal hand. They say it is not
bad verse, either. It was published in

lated into French under the king’s super-
Washington, D. C.—Army officers are
watching a provision in the army appro-
priation bill which directs that no en-
listed man of the army who has passed an
examination for promotion shall be com-
missioned or paid as an officer until he
has taken such a course of instruction as
the president may deem necessary to es-
tablish his fitness. The object of the pro-
vision is said to be to make it more diffi-
cult for the enlisted soldier to attain high-
rank and to leave the selection of of-
ficers for the lower grades to politicians.
For years West Point has not been
able to provide the officers required each
year to maintain the full quofa, and
course has been had to the ranks and
civil life, from which hundreds of officers
have come as a result of the Spanish
and the army reorganization act.
Nearly 1000 officers from
have been appointed to the lower ranks
in the last year or two, and there are
still vacancies beyond the strength of the
present graduating classes at the military
academy to fill in June. The politicians
Is an ordeal which all
women approach with
indescribable fear, for
nothing compares with
the pain and horror of
child-birth. The thought
of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother
of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a
shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women
have found that the use of Mother’s Friend during pregnancy robs
confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother
and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the
time of their most critical trial. Not only does Mother’s Friend
carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use*
gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents “morning
sickness,” and other dis-
comforts of this period.
