VARYINC CAREER OF JAMES FEN-
N I MORE COOPER.
Unpromising Yonth of Tlila Recosrnized
Genius Hi Ionjr- Dormant Power
Change front Popularity to Unpopu
larity Foremost American Novelist.
James Fennimore Cooper, the dean
of American novelists, holds a posi
tion in our native literature at once
unique and distinc
tive. It matters
but little now that
lis literary genius
should have re
mained dormant
for so long a time
as a diamond In
the rough before
.ccident chipped off
the crude exterior,
disclosing the bril-
jamb w. coopjuB. liancy within. It Is
of small Importance that his early life,
spent In aimless pursuits, was wholly
without promise of future achieve
ments, and soon but a regrettable mem
ory will also be the fact that during
the last few years of his life through
misunderstandings and misrepresenta
tions bis breast was filled with feel
ings of deep rancor toward men who
should have been his friends and who
in turn denounced both him and the
products of his pen. These circum
stances, the Inevitable contradictory
accompaniments of recognized ability,
have waned indistinctly into a hazy
background, against which stands bold
ly the undisputed truth that the author
of "The Spy and The Pilot" Is justly
worthy of all praise that has been or
may be accorded him.
The life of this varying popular and
unpopular author had its beginning
September 15, 1789, at Burlington, N.
J. His parents were both of Quaker
extraction. Soon after the. close of
the Revolutionary war the Cooper fam
ily established a household within the
borders of New York State near the
headwaters of the Susquehanna River.
They encouraged the populating of this
vicinity and subsequently laid out the
site of Cooperstown. The Cooper fam
ily decided to make their permanent
home in the town founded by them
and in 1799 completed the erection of
a spacious manor house, known as Ot
sego Hall, which was for many years
the most commodious and stately pri
vate residence In central New York.
To every reader that has been charm
ed with the spell of Cooper's Indian ro
mances, the surroundings of his boy
hood days are significant. During those
years the foremost pioneers of emigra
tion had barely begun to push their
way westward through the Mohawk
Valley, the first available highway to
the west Out of the forest that bor
dered Otsego Lake Indians came for
barter, or possibly with hostile intent,
and from these no doubt Cooper drew

the portraits of the red men who live
In his pages. Such wild surroundings
could not but stimulate a naturally
active imagination and the Influence of
the wilderness, augmented afterwards
by the somewhat similar Influence of
the sea, pervaded his entire life.
From a private tutor he received his
earliest education and at the age of 13
entered the freshman class of Yale Col
lege. According to his own account.
he learned but little at college. His
love of out-of-doors freedom led him to
neglect his books and he roamed about
and explored the rugged hills north
ward of New Haven and the equally
picturesque shores of Long Island
Sound. Gradually he became wilder
and more persistent in his deflanceof
academic restraints and was finally ex
pelled.
Upon leaving his studies the love of
activity and adventure laid hold on the
youth and he decided to take up the
life of a seaman. In 1806 he made his
first voyage as- a sailor before the mast
on the ship Sterling, sailing from New
York with a cargo of flour for foreign
markets. After this he served for a
time as midshipman on the Vesuvius
and was later ordered to Oswego, N.
Y., with a construction party to build
a brig for service on Lake Ontario.
Then he was given charge of the gun
boat flotilla on Lake Champlaln and
was subsequently ordered to the Wasp.
In 1S11 he married a daughter of John
Peter DeLancey, of Westchester Coun
ty, N. Y., and resigned his position In
the navy to settle into a quiet, domes
tic life. In deference to his wife's
wishes he built his home in Westches
ter County on what was known as the
Angevine farm in the town of Scars-
dale, In which locality many stirring
events of the Revolution had taken
place. The impressions gained from
the historic associations surrounding
him here were of inestimable value to
him In the descriptive coloring of "The
Spy." There still remains standing
near Scarsdale the ruins of a chim
ney once within the Disbrow 'House,
wherein the original of Cooper's Har
vey Birch is said to have successfully
hid from his pursuers.
At 30 years of age James Fennimore
Cooper was following a quiet, common
place existence, and no thought of a
literary life had as yet entered his
mind. One day while reading an En
glish novel to his wife he half-jestingiy
remarked: "I believe I could write a
better story myself." His wife was
sure that be could and so encouraged
the Idea that he made the attempt His
initial work was "Precaution," a novel
In two volumes, published anonymous
ly In an Inferior manner during the
year 1S20. This first novel was In no
respects a sample of the author's tal
ent It dealt with high life In En
gland, a subject with which the writer
was personally unfamiliar, save
through the pages of fiction, and while
the venture can hardly be said to have
enabled him to taste of the sweets of
authorship. It had the effect of stimu
-
lating the desire to write. Its modest
success caused his friends to urge him
upon some -more familiar theme, and
remembering an interesting tale of a
spy that he had heard' some years be
fore from the lips of John Jay, be set
about putting It Into a story. "The
Spy" was the result and .during the
winter of 1821-22 the American public
awoke to the fact that It possessed a
novelist of its own, and the immediate
success of the book, which was un
precedented at the time. In the annals
of American literature, determined
Cooper's future career. . 1 --
The next five years witnessed : the
publication of some of his best works,
among them being "The Pioneers,"
"The Pilot" and "Lionel Lincoln." In
1826 his popularity had attained Its
zenith with the publication of "The
Last of the Mohicans." But with fame
came envy and uncharitableness from
his contemporaries at home .and
abroad. English reviewers claimed him.
as a native, fixing his birthplace In the
Isle of Man, and denounced him as a
renegade. Naturally of a head-strong
and combative disposition, he resented
the accusations and Insinuations thrust
upon him and in so doing could not
help but give offense to a large class.
His self-assertive manner made him

enemies among men who could not un
derstand his nature. He made fre
quent visits to England, during which
his company was sought by the most
distinguished men of the time, and
during one of these visits he was un
willingly brought Into a controversy
over the economy and efficiency of the
United States government His utter
ances on this subject were miscon
strued and his - published letters
brought forth what now seems an al
together unexplainable bitterness
against their author.
As one of the most successful of au
thors, Cooper's fame Is assured. His
libel suits and controversies are for
gotten, his offensive criticisms are sel
dom read, and he Is remembered only
as the most brilliant and successful of
American novelists.

In her lecture on the stage In New
York recently," Clara Morris related
some mishaps in the theater to show
what self-control the . young actress
must exercise. One evening, she said,
she was playing "Camllle," when, dur
ing the scene with Armand, she discov
ered that the flower, the camelia, on the
giving of which the plot turned, was
missing from' her breast where it
should have been pinned. "I tried to
warn Armand," she related, "but he
was making love and did not hear. In
despair, I went across the room. There
was the supper-table, and on It a beau
tiful, bunch of; celery. It was the work
of a minute to wrench off some of the
greenest leaves. The poor man did not
know anything of what was coming.
You should have seen his mien when
I handed him the celery, saying, as my
part required: It Is a strange flower.'
'I agree with you,' he whispered back.

untiring energy of its provost Mr. Har

Mr. Harrison was pleading persist

not so very long ago, but without suc

"See here, Mr. Harrison, I will give
you something on one condition that
you promise not to come into my office
again until I ask you to do so."
"Certainly, Mr. T., I agree to that"
said the provost promptly, and walked
out smiling with a check for one thou

A month or so later he heard a knock
at his door. "Come In!" be called, and
in walked Mr. Harrison. He had the
