An actress, a statesman, a novelist and a poet, each standing In the fore most ranks of those in his particular line, have been called from the vari ous scenes of their brilliant earthly careers within t- short period recently. Each was known and admired interna tionally and their deaths, all within three days, deprive the world of fur ther great works which It had every right to expect from such fruitful lives. A Great Tragedienne. The death of Helena Modjeska closes the career of one of the-most remark able women ever seen on an American stage. As a tragedienne none of her contemporaries was her superior, and but few if any her equal. Her life MME. MODJESKA. Ilflc ur country has produced, breathed his last at his home at Sorrento, ou the Bay of Naples, the evening of the same day as Mr. Hitchcock. Mr. Craw ford had a training that gave him not only the secrets of language and liter ature, but an intimate knowledge of many peoples and of many lands. His was a romantic one. She was first mar rled to Gustav Modzejewskl, by whom she had one son, Ralph. Her second marriage was with Count Bozenta in 1868. The count was exiled from Po land, In 1878, for his political writings and his wife was forbidden to appear on the Polish stage. The couple came to this country and were naturalized, th6 countess taking as her stage name a modified form of the name of her first husband. Her debut in this coun try was made in San Francisco in 1877. In happy contradiction ot the fate of many great artists ehe did not die poor. She earned during her stage ca reer a million dollars, but gave to char ity with an open hand. She founded an Industrial school for girls In Cra cow, Poland, and her generosity ; ac counted for the disposal of the larger part of her earnings. She left an es tate amounting to about $120,000. In spite of the decree of exile pro nounced against her husband, and de spite the decree, Issued after she had delivered an address at the World's Fair in Chicago on Russian-Polish pol itics, barring her from all Russian pos sessions, It Is her husband's intention to take the body back to her native town of Cracow for burial. An American Statesman. The death of Ethan Allen Hitchcock, Secretary of the Interior under Presi dents McKinley and Roosevelt, re moved a statesman whose record fdr honesty and whose high sense of duty were recognized by his country. Mr. Hitchcock was the grandson of General X0 ETHAN ALLEN HITCHCOCK. Ethan Allen of the Revolution. His death came April 9 at the age of 74. In 1897 he was appointed by President McKinley as envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary to Russia and tbe following year the. post was raised to an embassy. In 1803 be was called home to become Secretary of the Interior, a place which he kept under President Roosevelt He served until March 4, 1907, when he resigned to return to private life. Secretary Hitchcock was a foe to land frauds and the most prominent of his reforms was the determined effort to put an end to such frauds on the Federal domain. He prosecuted many wealthy land grabbers among whom were men well known In public Ufa and private business. A Fan ova Novelist, The great American novelist, F. Marion Crawford, one of the moat pro- i i i mm- F. MARION CRAWFORD. father was Thomas Crawford, the noted sculptor whose "Liberty" Is on top of the Capitol at Washington. His mother was a sister of Julia Ward Howe and of Sam Ward, the author. Young Crawford spent much of his life in Italy, where he was born, re-, turning time and again after his wan derings over the earth, and there he fiually married and made his home. He attended St. Paul's at Concord, N. H., and later entered Trinity College. Cambridge, still, later going to Heidel berg. He made a deep study of many languages through his travels. Though he spent most of his years after marriage In Italy, he made sev eral visits to this country. His chief recreation was yachting and he held a professional master's certificate from the Association of American Ship Mas ters and from the United States Marine Board. He wrote an astounding num ber of novels, having produced one every year from the time .he wrote the first In 1881, and sometimes three in twelve months. He wrote only one play, which was produced by Sarah Bernhardt in Paris. EiiKlish Man of Letter.

But Swinburne was strong In bis likes and dislikes and some of his works were tinged with his animosity against kings and priests. He created a style of his own and cared little for criticism. He was early inspired by Shakespeare and later be came a devout worshiper of Browning. Upon leaving Oxford he spent some time In travel. He contributed a wealth of impassioned poetry to the English language and in addition was a keen critic. His strong personality has left an Indelible mark upon literature. - IS nu , J The liveliest hotel in iiuiraio rur- nlshes free electric cab service for its guests to and from depots, wharves or wherever else they may land or wish to depart from, and also arouud the city. Now it has added Mr. Clark, says the New York Morning Telegraph. It Is Mr. Clarke's business to travel, mostly to New York, but Pittsburg, Cleveland, Chicago and several other big cities are in his line. All he has to do is drop in on transportation agents, hotel clerks and folks like that and get acquainted. If any person is leaving a New York hotel and going to Buffalo it is Mr. Clarke's business to know it He gets acquainted, tells him all about the hotel he represents and assures him of per sonal attention if he will only come. Mr. Clarke's efforts have resulted in from fifteen to fifty people going to the house that employs him every day since he has been on the job. He does not know What to call himself, but it was suggested that he be christened "the smiling front," he is certainly there with that good-natured smile of his. "It's easy," Mr. Clarke said, when asked how he worked. "When a guest comes with my card he always hunts me up. Of course I look after him, see he is satisfied and that he has a good time while in Buffalo. I never thought of going .out as traveling repre sentative of a hotel before, but I like it It certainly is something new. They'll all be doing it soon," A Burdened Man. A certain small boy in grade number six was rapidly assuming manly ways. Not long ago, says a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, there was to be an entertainment at his school. Songs, recitations and a grab-bag were the principal features. The small boy waxed eloquent of the coming glories of this show, and more especially of the part he was to take. On the morning of the entertainment his mother suggested that he should take his little sister, about four years old, with him. He hung his head. "Don't you want to take her?" his mother asked. "No, I don't," he answered. "Why not?" " 'Cause there ain't none of the other fellers has to bring their children," was the reply. Varying Impressions. "The days are growing longer," said the man who keeps a lookout for the first robin. "I don't notice any difference," said Slrius Barker; "tbey seem, as usual, to b getting longer If you count from one pay day to tbe next and shorter if you figure the time between rent days." Washington Star. The Indications are that under the new tariff law stockings will cost bo much the old-fashioned Industry of darning will be revived. Don't kick a man to-day because he Is down. You may be down to-morrow. Recently Incapacitated. There were some deficiencies In the early education of Mrs. Donahue, but she never mentioned them or admitted their existence. "Will you sign your name here?" said the young lawyer whom Mrs. Donahue had asked to draw up a deed transferring a parcel of land to her daughter. "You slum it yourself an' I'll make me marrk," said the old woman, quick ly. "Since me eyes gave out I m not able to write a wurrd, young man." "How do you spell it?" he asked, pen noised above the proper space. "Snell It whatever way you plaze," said Mrs. Donahue, recklessly. "Since I lost me teeth, there's not a wurrd In the wurrld I can spell." Comfort. "Don't talk to me about sensible clothes." announced the pretty girl, "I am never comfortable unless I know I look nice, and sensible clothes are not pretty. I yielded to persuasion this summer and bought a pair of so-called common sense slippers with low heels and broad toes simply hideous 1 And do you know something? My feet were never so uncomfortable In my life." An Oolnlon Ventured. "Do you believe that ignorance is ever bliss?" said tbe erudite glrL "I never studied the question," an swered Miss Cayenne. "But I should say that a young person who doesn't know the difference between holly and mistletoe would have a decided ad vantage at a Christmas party." Washington Star. A Big- Difference.
