Syracuse has an aspirant for the posi­
tion of poet laureate of A m erica But,
being a loyal member of the Union, 6he
does not wish to be called by ., title as
suggestive of the effete monarchies as
“ poet laureate’’ and has therefore de­
clared iu favor of “ national poetess. ”
She is Mrs. Sarah U lricht Kelley, and
she modestly describes herself as hymn
w riter and prospective national poetess
of the U nited States, nominated by a
very large m ajority of editors.
Mrs. Kelley is a rem arkable woman.
She proposes not only to be national
poetess, but president as well. She in ­
tends to sing herself into glory, domin­
ion and power. As poetess laureate of
these great United States it will be but
a step to the presidential chair, for by
the act which congress must adopt her
salary w ill exceed that of the chief ju s­
tice of the supreme bench and w ill be
inferior only to th at of the president
himself. Concerning this vital feature
of her set plan, M rs.Kelley said: “ If I
were national poet, I should give all
my salary away. I w ill leave the ques­
tion of compensation to congress, but I
w ant it fixed at $12,000 a year. ”
Mrs. Kelley has liberal notions as to
the treatm ent of men when she is presi­
dent. H er cabinet, she says, will not be
composed entirely of men or women,
but there w ill be a fair and equitable
compromise. She thinks th at Susan B.
A nthony’s great mistake lies in her a t­
titude toward men.
An example of Mrs. Kelley’s poetry,
called “ Syracuse Iu a Rainy D ay,” has
some gems of thought. She says, refer­
ring to a w ar claim which she has
against the government:
In January, 1799, at the town of
Aquilla, in the Abruzzo, then held by
a garrison of 400 French troops, the
peasants broke into the town, and,
though they were driven out by the
French, they continued to give serious
trouble. They even drove the French
into the fort and made ready to bom­
bard them w ith heavy guns. The French
Were in an awkward position.
Boulert, the officer of artillery, ran ­
sacking his brains for the means of send­
ing out men to spike the guns on the
glacis, under the fire of the insurgents
from the neighboring houses, suddenly
remembered that he had seen in his
magazine some suits of plate armor, and
he proposed to try whether, protected
by them, men could not sally ont and
work in security under the musketry
fire. He got together 12 complete suits
and dressed ont 12 gunners and grena­
diers thus, selecting big men, he it re­
marked. A t a certain hour the garrison
lined the covered way, and from thence
and from the fort opened a steady fire
of musketry and of artillery on the lines
of the insurgents.
Then out marched the 12 knights of
the eighteenth oeutury, much in Da­
vid’s state of mind when he complained
he had not proved his armor. The meu
carried handspikes, hammers and spikes.
Moving naturally slowly and awk­
wardly in their heavy steel m ail, still
they succeeded in completing their work
under a hail of bullets from the insur­
gents. The scene is described, as we
can well believe, to have been most re­
m arkable and to have had something
picturesque and also diabolical about it.
As the m ailed figures moved in s i­

A STICK OF LICORICE.
W h ere th e P la n t G row s and H ow I t Is
P r e p a r e d F or C on su m p tion .
Black licorice is made from the juice
of the licorice plant, mixed w ith starch
to prevent it from m elting in hot w eath­
er. The licorice plant grows for the
most part on the banks of the Tigris
and Euphrates rivers, which flow
through immense treeless prairies of un­
cultivated land. The clim ate of these
great plains is variable. H alf the year
it is m ild and pleasant, but for three
months it is very cold, and for three
months In summer hot winds sweep
across the country, raising the tem pera­
ture to 104 degrees for weeks at a time.
The licorice plant is a shrub three
feet high and grows w ithout cultiva­
tion in situations where its roots can
reach the water. The usual tim e of col­
lecting is the winter, but roots are dug
all the year round. At first the root is
full of water and must be allowed to
dry, a process which takes nearly a
year. It is then cut into small pieces,
from six inches to a foot long. The good
and sound pieces are kept, and the rot­
ten ones are used for firewood. The lic­
orice is then taken iu native river boats
of Bassora, whence it is shipped in
pressed bales to London.
As the valley of the Euphrates con­
tained one of the earliest civilizations
in the world, it is probable th at licorice
is about the oldest coufectiou extant,
and that the taste, which pleases nearly
all children today, was fam iliar to the
little brown boys and girls of Babylon
and Nineveh 3,000 years ago —P itts­

or “ from .” They generally refer to the
town or place where one was born or
to the fam ily estate. Iu the case of the
first mentioned person above, the fa­
mous author of “ Im itation of Christ,
the a denotes “ from. ” His real name
was Thomas Hammerkiu, but he was
born in the town of Kempen, near Co­
logne, and on that account was known
during his school days and always after
as Thomas a Kempis, which was equiv­
alent to “ Thomas from Kem pen.” In
modern times these prepositions have
been almost entirely elim inated from
our nomenclature and are now only
found in the contracted forms, as in
“ Pugh, ” a surname which was formerly
“ ap H ugh.” —St. Louis Republic.
