T 10 TTR MOKNING OREGOXIAN, SATUKD'AY. JUNE 16, 1900. COL eiGGINSOH'S TALK ABOUT LONGFELLOW i (Copyright. 100C by Seymour Eaton.) I THE OREGONINS HOME STUDY CIRCLE: LITERARY TALKS AND REMINISCENCES BT PROF. T. W. HIGGINSON. I. I always remember with delight the occasion, a quarter of a century ago. when I walked down the heights of the Corner Grat above Zermatt with a party of young English girls and their chap eron, whose confidence was at once com manded when I happened to mention that I had been n pupil of "Longfel.ow's: and they crowded round me with eager questions about lis home and domestic life. This then wa that fame of Tvhlch he dreamed when he wrote to his father at the age of 17: "That fact Is, I most eagerly aspire after future emtnenc? In literature; my whole soul burns ardently for It and e'er earthly thought centers in It." Yet he always had that modesty which Is, as his friend Hawthorne main tained, the natural result of success. He thought much more of the laurels of oth ers than of his own. and we meet in h's Journals the most delightfully tranquil ex pressions of serenity; as under the at tacks of Pope, for Instance, the author of which undoubtedly imagined him as writhing in torture. Unfortunately his friends were not always equally placid In his behalf: and Lowell In particular was fond of picking up the fallen arrows of criticism from MargarH Fuller's quiv er, for instance, and sending them back. - r- 5 - 73 IIEMIY W.l)S1VOIlTH LONGFELLOW a little sharpened, as if with Longfel low's compliments. The truth is that both Longfellow's books and his personality belong to that class whoso members should be desig nated according to Emcron's analysis as "favorltrs." The law of impartial d s tribution gees far in the universe, and probably there never yet was a favorlt" whose fame had not to undergo a reac tion. This has been emphatically the cape with Longfellow. No one would now attribute to him the fame, once readily , conceded the world over, of the most popular among those who wrote verses In J the English tongue. It Is quite certain that no contemporlry English . or American poet was so widely translated, j The list given by his brother Includes j B2 translations Into German, eight Into j French, five Into Swedish, nine into Ital- Ian, four Into Dutch, three each Into Danish, Portuguese and Polish, and oth ers Into Spanish, Russian, Latin, Hebrew, Marathl.x Chinese and Sanskrit 15 In all. All other American poets put together did not equal these, nor had Browning or Tennyson put together quite so many. His writings were also printed by 22 dif ferent publishers in London. Iore con clusive In my Imagination than even these statistics was a little book of selected poems I once found In an English lodg ing-house. In which more than half the poems came from the muse of Longfel low alone. It Is yet too early to award to this poet his exact proportion of final fame, but the j uniform testimony of all who know him will admit that he possessed something better than fame In the uniform sweetness ana generosity oi nis nature, ii is possidiq that those who disarm criticism during life by their winning qualities may gain a lit tle more than their share of contemporary juTjIscand may thus prepare the way for a gr.ea.ter reaction after they are gone. On the other hand, the men who call down an tagonism often find a renewed charity after death, that which was criticised be-! Ing forgotten and the qualities hitherto neglected being brought Into prehaps un due prominence. Few things help an au thor more In the direction of posthumous fame than to require personal vindication. This has been strikingly visible in the cases of Byron and Shelley In England, as also with Poe and Whitman in America, Lowell plaintively points out, however. In his "Fa- o LONGFELLOW'S BIItTHI'LACE, PORTLAND, 3IE. bio for Cit!cs,,, that a man Is certainly made no worse by the fact that his friends lov him. Longfellow's characteristics cer tainly did not weaken him. for he showed Invariable Independence of character and wrote anti-slavery poems of his own mo tion which reached an audience more con servative than thoFe of "Whlttier or Lowell. nce to the Harvard College mami- . rhows him, moreover, a,- some- timet p acing himself quite In opposition ' to prevalent opinion of the faculty, nnd yet holding his own. In dealing with i the students he was distinctly a pioneer, DIRECTED BY PROF. SEYMOUR EATON although his ploncershlp took the form of a courtesy and suavity of manner then . Ices prevalent than now; the tradition I being that he was the first professor who I I ---ii t -r- young- men as "Mister." a practice which now generally prevails. . I can testify that curing an abortive re- bullion in 1W1, when a. mob of students was assembled In the college yard and had. refused to listen to any other in structor, even requesting one of the older professors to "go home and go to beV old Dosy Posy." the leaders turned with 1 respect to Longfellow when he appeared, and said: "We'll hear Professor Long- fellow. He always treats us like gentle men." This la not the kind of deference won by a weak man, but by one who meets hfs students on higher ground than that of mere authority. Longfellow's life, though seemingly prosperous, was not free from the deeper tragedies of existence in the .deaths ot J his two wives. I have In my possession I the minute account by a traveling com panion of the Illness and death of his first wife and of his demeanor under It: and he wrote In 1S57 to the German poet, Frelllgrath: "Of what I have been through during the last six years I dare not venture to write even to you. It Is almost too much for any in.u i live." In the ordinary affairs of life he pcaped many trials by leaving criticisms unread; but his literary prosper1 ty. tried by the standard of today, was never highly lucrative, the highest pos'tlve rec ord of Income from this source being J25W, an amount doubtless exceeded by that of other authors now forgotten as. for Instance, Willis. On the other hand, he had his full share of the vexations of fame, being called upon one day, for example, to write 100 autographs for a fair at Chattanooga In behalf of Con federate sufferers, about which request he says: "It was like fighting the battle over again, but I did It." It Is not ln frequent for him to record in his diary the appearance of 14 or 15 callers In an afternoon, or the arrival of 20 or more letters. A lady In Ohio once sent him LonjcfelloTr Statue, Portland, Me. 100 blank cards with a request to write his name on each, to be distributed at a "party she was to give on his birthday. Some 40 or more schools in the Western States celebrated his 74th birthday, all writing him letters and requesting re plies. He sent to each school a stanza, wit hsignature and good wishes. I went once to call on him on one of these birth day occasions, and saw a pile of 60 or 70 letters from a single Western High School. These things are the reverse of fame's medal, and the things which might make one envy the solitary free dom of Thorcau. 7Tht . A ty '"' . Cambr.iige, Mass. Funeral of Ilev. 31. Grantham.

A friend of the Chronicle has called our attention to a remarkably well-written ar ticle of the Overland Monthly on the "Evolution of the Northwest." The ar ticle has a spec al Interest for the p. op e of The Dalles for two reasons: Its author Is the Rev. W. A. Tenney, who organ ized the Congregational Chruch at thi3 place In 1SS9, and was Ha first pastor; and It gives special attention to the nai ural resources of this district, viewing them In the light of a companion picture to the low estimate that was placed on them by early American tourists and set tlers. The arllrJe la Intensely Interesting throughout, and our only regret Is that lack of space prevents us from reprinting It In full. The following extract on what Mr. Tenney calls one of the minor re sources of the Northwest will help peo ple at a distance to become better ac quainted with this young and marvelous country: "One of the minor resources of the North west Is found In Its adaptation, both In soil and cl:uate, to fruit. Every variety that can be grown In the temperate zone flourishes herv lo perfection. We have no fear of contradiction In Baying that the fruit. In flavor, In size end in texture, has never teen surpassed In any land elnco Eden was closed. It win go a long way toward the proof of such, a sweep ing statenu-nt to say that the largest ap ple, the largtst pear and the largest cher ries exhibited at the World's Fair at Chi cago were from Oregon, and also that Hood River won IB medals on fruit, eeven on apples, and received the highest prize on strawberries after they had been four days In an express car on a Journey ot 2005 miles. The apples from th's locality, by reason of .hel s7e, smooth surface, splendid color, rich flavor and freedom from insects, take the flrat rank every where. In J ne, lfI-4. as an experiment, a few boxjs of ytllow Newtown pippins, after eight months' storage, were shipped around Cape Horn. They were opened in London in good condition-13 months after they had been picked from the trees at Hood River. Can anybody give a parallel In the keeping quality from any other country? "To our personal knowledge, so late as lS73 the landscape about The Dalles In Midsummer, outside of the small town, presented nothing to the eye, but a desert of shifting sand .for miles along the river bank, and all the vast tract back from the river was a succession of 'dry. verdureless hills,' exactly as Sen ator WebsUr and Mr. Ulttell had de scribed ion? before. In 1S93 we found this same spot the verdant center of COO acres Of fruit orchards. Farther back, fof fhtles and miles were luxuriant gram fields. Here was certainly a mar r tit is fcVaiutMn In 25 years. It was the result Of man's Intelligent use of Nature' in conceivable wealth In the so'l and climate. Twd miles above The Dalle, where the Band along the river bank, until the ltt-U 12 years, drifted all Summer like the Winter snow In New England, or like the changing dunes between San Fran cisco and the Cliff House, now stand -SO acres of fruit trees that can hardly be surpassed anywhere In the abundance and quality Of their yield of peaches and cher ries. This sand Is not, as In many lands, pulverized quartz, but granulated basalt. containing some of the most nutritive plant-food that earth affords. The old mill where tnte .and has been grinding for thousands of years is still running. Who ever will visit the foot of the rapids of The Dalles at a low stage of the river may look Into the great pot holes con taining rocks a ton in weight, which are kept whirling during the high stages of the river, grinding out all the etony grists that fall Into the hopper. "This particular fruit belt lo about the foot of Mount Hood, and the richest of it la scarcely 23 mllos from the perpetual snow. Mill'ons of acres only a little in ferior for fruit can be found In Eastern Oregon. Washington -and Idaho. This in dustry la yet in its Infancy. It is not 10 years since attempts have been made to furnish the Eastern market. So far the product has commanded the highest prices wherever it lias been offered. No other fruit bears transportation with so little Injury. When the Eastern market Is over stocked, the Oregon fruit Is manifestly the survival of the fittest." DAILY CITY STATISTICS.

Galgate Clears "With a Bis Cargo SLoaaiOBtasatre Due From the Orient Marlac Notes. The German ship Mabel Rlckmers, whfch arrived in port one week ago yes terday, has already about half of her cargo aboard, and will finish In plenty ot time to clear this month. The Mabel Rlckmers will be the ISth German ship to load at Portland this season. The entire fleet will consist of about 96 ves sels, so that the German flag will be bet ter represented than It has ever been be fore. A few of 'the vessels flying this comparatively new flag on the ocean wero oldrtlmenj of British build, but a great many of them are modern-built ships, and are In every way the equal of the Brit ish vessels, which for so many years "were practically alone In their glory in this Held.

Further Particulars of the Loss of the Sierra Nevada. VANCOUVER, B. C, June 15. The steamer Warrimoo, from Sydney, N. S. W., today brings further particulars of the disastrous wreck on the Victorian coast of the British ship Sierra Nevada, 1400 tons. Twenty-three lives were lost. Including the skipper. Captain Scott. Of the -crew of 2S, only five reached shore, and one of the quintette afterwards died from exposure and injuries. The disaster occurred on a very daric night, May 10. during a roaring gale. The ship dashed herself to pieces on a rock near Port Phillips Head. The suddenness and com pletely devastating character of the dis aster were shown In the fact that barely a vestige of the ship was to be found In the raging sea a few hours after striking the rocks. The vessel was crushed and smashed like an eggshell. Another Australian marine disaster was the wTeck of the three-masted Norwegian schooner Niels Rlbe, which went ashore on Solo Reef, Gau, and was a total loss. The captain and crew were saved. The bark Magnat was wrecked on the Victorian coast between Capes Patterson and Liptrap, near the spot where tho Sierra Nevada was lost. Officers and crew were saved. THE GALGATE'S CARGO. Carries More Wheat, bnt the Value Is Smaller Than on Former Trips. The British bark Galgate cleared yester day for Queenstown or Falmouth for or ders, with 131,547 bushels of wheat, valued at 572.331. The vessel was dispatched by Kerr, Glfford & Co., and the present Is tho third cargo she has taken from Port land within lees than three years. She has gained a little on the amount of cargo taken each trip, but there has been a sharp decrease In the value. The Galgate was loaded at Portland in October, 1S97, by G. W. McNear. with 123,471 bushels of wheat, valued at 5105,667. She returned In February, 1S99, under charter to the Portland Flouring Mills Company, this time taking 130,255 bushels of wheat, val ued at 578,500. From these figures It will be seen that the cargo now leaving In the Galgate is valued at 533,316 less than that shipped about three years ago. MOX3IOTJTHSHJRE DUE TODAY. Fast Oriental Ltner Bringing: a- Good Cargo From the Far East. The good, fast Oriental liner Monmouth shire Is due at the mouth of the river this evening, or tomorrow morning. This will be Captain Kennedy's first trip com ing this way, and his roanyl friends in this city expect him to bring his ship In about on time, unless he encounters bad weather or meets with an accident. The new skipper and Chief Engineer Hicks are pretty close "tllllcums," and the chief will accordingly keep the Shire's propellor spinning for all that It Is worth, if there is any danger of falling behind the sched ule. The Monmouthshire will be followed next week by the steamship Lennox, which Is still in the transport service. A full outward cargo awaits the regular liner, and she also has an Inward cargo of ijreater than usual proportions. Marine Note. The steamship Inverness will finish load ing lumber at the North Pacific Mills Mon day. She will carry about 3,000,000 feet. The new steamer which Joseph Supple is building for the Tillamook route will be ready for launching In abofct a week. The scarcity of coasting craft due to the Nome ush has caused A. M. Simpson to put in the coasting lumber trade a number of his four-masted barkentlnes, which have formerly been engaged mostly In foreign trade. San Francisco for the first time in years is tills season drawing on outside ports for ballast tonnage. Several ships have al ready been engaged to go from the Orient to the Bay city in ballast, and more will follow. Some ballast tonnage Is also be ing secured from Honolulu. The steamer Ocklahama, in charge of Captain Sam Colson. yesterday put the British bark East African through to As toria by daylight. The vessel was carry ing over 100.000 bushels of wheat and draw ing 21 feet of water, and went through In a little over 12 hours, arriving at As toria at 5:30 in the afternoon. London Falrplay In Its last Issue devotes an entire page to the summaries of a golf tournament held by the Liverpool ship pers. "When this entrancing game breaks ipto a staid old class publication like Falrplay, the enthusiasm of some of the Portland grain and shipping men does not seem so remarkable. It certainly must be superior to f. a. q. sport. Domentlc and Foreifrn Porta. ASTORIA, June 15. Sailed at 9 A. M. Steamer Del Norte, for San Francisco and way ports.

TREASURY WELL EQUIPPED Everything In Readiness for the Crop Season. . NETV YORK. June 15. A special to the Journal of Commerce from "Washington says: The Treasury Is facing the crop season very well equipped with Government notea, but under some pressure in regard to supplying the large volume Of new bank notes which have been applied for under tho gold-standard law. Tho probability of a heavy demand for notes was antici pated early In the Winter. Precautions fere taken to print a large etock of sil ver certificates of the denomination ol 51 and $2 and United States notes of larger denominations. Treasury notes Issued under the Sherman law are no longer being- printed In accordance with the mandate of the gold-standard law for their gradual retirement. As a result of the precautions taken "early In the Winter, it has been possible to reduce the printing of Government notes somewhat and to put the force of the Bureau of Emjravlng and Printing more largely on to new bank notes. It Is proposed after this week to begin work upon the new silver certificates for To. for which the design has just ibeen com pleted. It has been the experience that after notes have been Ipsued of a new design there Is great unwillingness to ac cept those of an old design, even when fresh. For this reason few certificates for $5 have been Issued recently from the old plate, and preparations have been made to tesue from the new plates as soon as they are ready. The Treasury will be amply supplied with notes for exchange, but may be somewhat handicapped in issuing any dif ferent class or note from that offered for exchange, because of the scant mar gin of authorized Issues. United States notes on hand June U were $21,593,702. and silver certificates $7,369,332. Th's total of more than $23,000,000 Is about $12,000 000 better than the minimum of last Summer and Autumn, but It might very soon be exhausted by heavy demands. StrnnR-e Jealonny. LOUISVILLE, June 15. Moved by strange jealousy of a daughter, Thomas Bach shot and killed 18-year-old Mollle Bach, because she was secretly married four weeks ago to Newt Thorn. He then killed himself. The tragedy occurred at the Bach farm, 11 miles from Louisville. Mollle Bach -was adopted 12 years ago by the Bach family and given their name. Thomag Bach, although a married man. was Intensely jealous of the girl, and he told her. It Is said, that he would kill her If she ever got married. Today she showed him the license for her marriage to Thorn, which had been kept a secret until today. Bach Immediately grabbed a pistol and shot and killed the girl. He then shot himself near the heart. To Restrict Asiatic Immigration. OTTAWA, Ont., June 15.
