THE LINGUISTIC ANARCHISTS.

Tricks to Attract Attention by Eccen- _ tHC Phrases and Forms. It Is In the literary language that the linguistic anarchist Is moßt. frequently met with, claims the Forum, and there he Is a clearly defined type. Falling to arrest attention by the quality of his thought or the charm of his expression, he forces himself upon our notice by shocking our sense of that which is becoming and normal 1 in language. He depends upon a dull linguistic moral sense In his readers for the acceptance of whatever is novel and striking in language as permissible or even artistic. Unfortunately his faith is only too often justified by the result. That which at first seems a wanton piece of revolting, violence comes to he endured, then accepted', and even in the end regarded as admirable. As Bagehot remarks in his study of the poetry of Robert Browning, when "we put down a healthy, instinctive aversion, nature avenges herself by creating an unhealthy, insane attraction.” “ 'This healthy, instinctive aversion every sensitive reader must frequently feel toward the language In which Browning’s poetry is written, toward those peculiarly Browningesque features of style which have contributed so much to the growth of tne BrownA lng cult. Our objection is not that this poetry has style, that it is individual. Its fault is that It has too much ( style, that it is too individual and that it does not sufficiently take into account the persons to whom it is addressed. The author lays violent hands upon the language for no other reason than that he has some private purpose to accomplish. This appears in wilfully obscure syntax, in the unusual value and collocation of words, j sometimes humorous hut not always I appropriately so. But above 'all it t appears in rhyme, for here, besides the usual feeling for language, there I is a special language convention that may be violated, the convention of rhyming. These" grotesque rhymes, as they have been called, are sometimes appropriate to the matter of the poems in which they occur; but that their pse is not dependent upon any such consideration is evidenced by such poems as “Count Gismold,’’ “t'he Grammarian’s Funeral,” and many others, where they are altogether out of place. They are cheap sensational tricks, linguistic contortions, gone through with to make the dull readei* gape and admire. Only one who had lost or who had never had any sensitiveness to the order and, the fitness of language could ever become enamored of such vicious creations. Another obvious Instance of the lit-t erary linguistic anarch is to be found in Whitman, in whom disregard of the traditions of language is sometimes taken as merely part of a general disregard of the law and tradition. This, however, is too extreme a statement of the case. It has been shown with a fair degree of certainty that Whitman was not wilfully inconsiderate of law and order, that he thought he had before him the vision of a larger law than has been revealed to most mss, a constructive philosophy of life which the diligent and the sympathetic may read in his verse. But granting this, in his choice of a means whereby to voice forth this philosophy of life, Whitman has fallen into a serious economic error. He has made the mistake of centring attention upon his form much to the detriment of his matter. For besides the strangeness of the thought even the sympathetic

reader Is confronted by an added and a considerable impediment in the outlandlsbness of the expression; only after the shock of surprise has passed away, after the linguistic misdemeanors have been forgiven and forgotten, can the thought receive full justice. Numerous examples of these stumbling blocks will come readily to mind. We cannot quote illustrations of his wfoiisnvtms sentence structure, hut in vocabulary we have such creations as “literatuses” (plural of literatus), "civillzee,” “discorrupt,” “cool-fresh-ing breeze,” “me melted-word with sweat.’’ Whitman also frequently uses French and Spanish words, whether in correct or incorrect forms matters not to him, and he does tms not because the French words are elegant or are necessary to express a subtle meaning, nor even as is sometimes said because he holds the tneory that the American population 1b heterogeneous and therefore American authors should use a polyglot vocabulary, French, Spanish, Polish and all other outlandish words without restriction; he doeß it merely because the use of these foreign words is striking and unexpected. If we add to our list such horrid Latinlsms and Gallicisms as "O me imperturbe.” “I have not the dencatesse of a diplomat” and others of their kind, we certainly Justify the statement that Whitman had little respect for the language in which he wrote. His style is not the result of the scholar’s care or of the nice discrimination of the literary artist. He Is merely gunning for attention with a big gun. We say the phrases or words are In bad taste; but they are worse than that, they are intentionally oh* struslve and offensive And whether yon want to hear him or not, he takes, the life of the language.

COOL-HEADED RAILROAD MEN.

Slightest Mistake In S«h«tful« May f Cause Disaster. Give an inexpert anc«M person |k large railroad folder and you put more trouble in his hands than the pigs in the clover puzzle, skid a prominent railroad official the other day. “You will find that the average person has not the slightest idea how to decipher the arrival and departure of trains. Imagine, then, the Immense amount of work involved In arranging the schedules of the trains of a vast railroad system so they will dovetail smoothly and be got In working order at an appointed hour. Just for example; Each twenty-four hours hundreds of trains arrive at and depart from the Grand Central Station. The schedules have to be arranged to make conflict impossible. “The adjustment of the time tables devolves ultimately upon the chief operating official of the road. He notifies the official of each division that a new train is to reach a certain point at a certain hour and will depart after a change of engines five minutes later, being due to arrive at the other end of .the division at a certain hour.

“The trainmaster of the division must then prepare a tentative schedule of trains for his division, and this tentative schedule .must be Bent to the chief train dispatcher befofe the new train is put on. “Each additional train must involve a certain derangement of the schedule already in force. If the new train is a “flier” the derangement amounts ah most to disorder. The local and accommodation trains gre most a’ffectM by these changes, tfhey must get out of the way of the limited trains in plenty of time, and passengers on the local trains are very likely to chafe under the delays that are inevitable. It is next to impossible to convince people that these delays Really are inevitable —strange as they may seem. “When all of the tentative schedules providing for a new train are in hand, the chief train dispatcher is in a position to prepare a final scheduleHe must regard, especially in limited trains, the hours at which trains are expected to leave and arrive at important points. He cannot run a train along the line of least resistance, for at the hours when there are fewest obstacles In the way of a ’flier’ there might be the greatest likelihood of no passengers being in waiting at the most important stations. “When all the data are in hand, the schedule is prepared and notifications are sent out to all of the Division Superintendents. But the experimentation does not end here. There is a great deal to he done by way of adjusting experience to operation so the strain on the rolling stock may be least.

"In preparing a schedule Tor a long-distance run it is essential to establish an average hourly mileage for the entire distance. It is not possible to test the running time between two neighboring points and by adding these together to arrive at the maximum speed possible to attain between two distant points, The theory of these averages is that the train shall leave sufficient leeway to make up time when necessary. It has been found, however, that engineers will loaf along over parts of their trip in order to make faster time than their schedules call for over other portions pf the route. “It can, therefore, be seen that all must be ready as far as it can he figured out by man, and the benefit inexperience. adds greatly to the making of a schedule in the rough that will work out to a nicety when the train is actually under way.”

Living Stream of Bats.

One of the wonders of this part of Texas is a stream of bats, several feet in thickness, which pours from a cave in a cliff on the bank of the Frio River, 25 miles north of Uvaldo, for about two hours each evening. It is said to be the biggest bat cave in the World. When the millions of flying mammals pour forth in the early dusk of the evening the rising column has the appearance of smoke and it can be easily seen for five miles. The .column of bats retains a solid and symmetrical shape until It attains a height of three or four hundred feet above the earth, when the winged creatures dart away In different directions in search of food. So far as known the only attempt to explore the cave was made by Dr. William B. Phillips, formerly director of the State Mineral Survey. He descended by means of a rope to a depth of 194 feet and then came to the floor of the first large chamber. He found that the bats did not come from this chamber. He followed a narrow passage way that led into a second chamber, This chamber was of enormous size and clinging to the root and walls was the horde of bats. It Is estimated that the bottom of the cave Is filled with thousands of tons of guano, bat owing to the remote distance from the nearest railroad point no effort has ever been made to utilize the valuable product. Henry Cograd and Tom Felah, sons of ranchmen of that neighborhood, attempted to explore the cave and attempted to enlarge the opening by means of a blast of dynamite. At the first explosion tbs hats poured forth.

I had difficulty In ?;etting my breath, rny heart beat so ast at times that I thought it impossible to live without relief; the pain was very severe in my left side, and my nerves was all unstrung. I had almost given up all hope of being cured, and I am sure I would not, fc I had not taken the Heart~<3ure.
