"The brick pavements of the Kansas town hrve done something unheard of.

"Who is Edgar Stanton Maclay?" is a question that Is often heard and seldom answered these days. Maclay has suddenly become a figure of prominence because of the charges that he has made in his naval history reflecting on the conduct of Rear Admiral Schley during the war with Spain. Maclay is a son of a clergyman and Is about thirty-nine years old. He is under the average height, but of sturdy build, with broad shoulders and heavy legs. He is persistent and stubborn in character and proud of a Scotch ancestry. Maeiay'i face Is broad below the eves, which makes his head appear small across the forehead. This apparent sinallnr-ss is accentuated by his habit of wearing his hair short at the sides, and combed up and back. His beard is of the Van Dvke order and is u dull red brown. His face is pitted, and when he smiles he shows an upj r row of small but regular teeth. His sp'f'h is slow and appears somewhat afTectett. but it is pleasant to listen to. He possesses a good tenor voice an.l is fond of music and dancing, but his frugal nature keeps him from the continual pursuit of happiness in those directions. While at work on his first volume of his naval history Maclay wa a reporter on tinNew York Tribune, covering the lizard of Education. At that time there were nine sons of clergymen on the Tribun, und Maclay, like all of them, was fond of staying up in the mornings after work was done, but as he had ft life work ahead of him. he decided he would have to practice economy. It took Maclay some time to hit upon ,t plan which would keep him from lont?:n to 1 be with his colleHgues. Finally he hired a piano and hod It installed In his apartment in a studio building in Fifth avenue. Ib-re. after lie had got through his worK nn the paper, he would go, and for hours at a time devote himself to practice. In the course of a few months he bad become a fairly proficient ierformer. When he had become tired writing he would turn to his piano and play until he became wrapped in the music. On becoming weary he would hurry to bed. This was one of his plans to save money. It was hard work for Maclay to write. Word came slowly to him, and It was dltllcult for him to handle a pen or pruil. He wrote a small, cramped, irregular hand, the lines being so close as to m:ke him unpopular with copy readers. At that time he had all his data for lis tlrst volume. It was while at Cornell that he conceived the idea of writing a naval history, having come to the conclusion that there was none

in existence worthy the name. When he left the university he had a little money, and iie went abroad for data. There lie made use of what knowledge he had i French and German and searched the libraries. One day after Maclay had learned all h could he found himself in Germany with just enough money to pay his way to New York city on the steamer. He had three days in which he f-ot tjlt Mcamcr. How to liv without eating those three days was a euesthn. and how to get to the Reamer was another. Somehow be got 0 a beat going down the Rhine, and em that boat he found bags of unroastcd coffee. The bags wer of canvas and his knife wus charp enough to cut holes in canvas. He laid In a store of green coffee beans, and he had not starved to death by the time he reached the steamship. Maclay always believed that writing vai h low art. and that no matter how well a man couid write lie could never achieve fame unless he really had something to say. When lie got through writing the first volume of his naval history he got Erwin Wardman. then copy reader on the Tribune, to go over it for him. Wardman was & Harvard man and was considered an authority on English language and literature. Wardman often grew tired, but he kept at the work of editing the volume and when It appeared in print it hd smoothness to it. In Kl Maclay 1 ft the Tribune and began writing naval editorials for the New York Sun. When he got ready to write the second volume of his history he obtained art appointment as lighthouse keeper at Setaukit. L. I., and got married. He ha chilelren. Maclay kept plugging along until Assistant Secretary of the Navy Allen wai sent to Porto Rico. Maclay wanted to be his successor. H" Is now a clerk In the Brooklyn navy yard. Maclay was one of three hopefuls on the Tribune from 1S-) to l4ai. Harry Du Pouchet was working on a play and J. Parmly Parot was working on a book on "Women in Sport." When Paret was not reporting or playing t nnis he was thinking about hit book. The same was true of Du Souehet when he was not telegraphing. Du Souehet became famous with his "My Friend from

India." Paret cot his book into print, and Maclay has come up with a rush because of his criticism of Schley. Their Valid Excu.c. Detroit Free Press. "During the civil war." said the old army officer who was in a reminiscent mood. 'I was detailed to take charge of a camp of raw recruits and lick them Into tthape. Now, making soldiers out of raw material is about as disagreeable a thing as an officer cares to undertake, and I hsd grsy hairs before the government listened to my frantic api-cal to be allowed to go to the front. "One cold, rainy night it occurred to me that it would be a good plan to make a tour of the picket line and see If the sentinels were attending to their duties. To my horror and astonishment I found post No. 1 vacant. Roiling with rage. I made for post No. 2. Here, too, I discovered the same state of things. Post No. 3 was in the stme condition, and I was rapidly developing symptoms of apoplexy. A little further on I found the three missing sentinels grouped together under a tree. " 'What are you doing here?' I roared. " 'Why, mister.' drawled one of them In tones if remonstrance, it's ralrinV " 'Don't you Know that you can be shot for thi?' I roared aKain. " 'We got here just quick as we could.' answered the raw recruit, who evidently thought I referred to their being wet. -and the eiarned government didn't furnish us with any umbrellas. "I went to the front soon after that and saw the same raw recruit face, without flinching, rains that were composed of leaden bulb ts. and they didn't ask for umbrellas, either."
