To HON. JUL
It is Purely an easy task to praise
I a friend, but to praise him wisely, is
not easy. There are a great many who
loved Julius E. Bogga, looking on as
I write, and 'their affection Xor him
will mak?'them severe critics. They
will hardly let the right, intention
?excuse poor work. Nevertheless, as!
he was generous himself, it may he
hoped that his friends are generous
also, and that they will read tlu
"linea between tho lines," and so iul
r<ll that Which is lacking in this at
tempt.
The most of those who will read
! these words knew him by thought, if
I not by sight. He hud a wide ac
rqualntance, aa the sorrow at his
I death was made known. It seems
; that those who did know him nearly
were apt to speak of him to others.
There are people whom you meet and
forget instantly, who speak and no
one listens-people with the minus
sign-nothing to give. If you re
member them at all it is that they
borrowed something.
Julius Boggs had life and that

j els. T?tere war little to read, and
tli at lit Ho wai good. I think some
thing of] the charm of his manner,
was duel to those early associations.
He was old fashioned. The memory
of old stories read in the firelight was
very bright in him, and gave his con
verratloq the glow of. the early
times, when we did hot nave to im
I port a man from Switzerland in or
Ider to find a niau who had no time
Ito makeiimoney.
I do not know that I can prove to
a stranger and an unbeliever that
Hoggs waa a mau of genius. I be
lieve that all who knew kim felt tba!
he was. The work that some mon
are permitted to do hi greater than
they are. Wo trace the works of
Shakespeare back to the poor player,
and cannot so account for them.
And again, some men are greater than
their work; what they do is only a
sign. Boffgs was never brought into
action. ?T?tere were reserves In him
tbat were never called to the front.
He died. Reaving a mass of unfinished
business.-. Ho thought lite, was a long
: unmier Hay . It Was nhl for .him
even a .short winter day. Who
thought ?hat. he would be called at
noon? He w?s? thoroughly human,
and so lifad faults. But if the Haws

His fault} ?wero or the kind that nv.ke
us sorry ,and not angry. With great
gifts comb great danger*.'! ' v?
Julius Bogga is not What-he ought
have been; but whew you ' told hun
so, it wa$ no newe to him Y it was c
thought familiar en ought. J 'Some men
need a logical argument to convince
them that they -axa sinners. They
are so prudent and sly in concealing
their sin (from others that tthey forget
where it Ila themselves.
Hoggs Was not ot that kindred;
never numbered ?ai discouraged
his conscience by disputing lu voice,
but confessed judgment.
Nature . forbids some , people to be
generous ip Judgment; but there ls
always a chance for an attempt to be
just. There's a choice in sinners.

GceyrWd. 4911, ly DocUedty. Pa* ? Ce.
THH captain gm?ed gloomily at
bis sword that hung upon the I
w&li. In tba closet near by
was stored bis faded uniform,
stained and worn by weather and serv
ice. What a long, long time lt seemed
since those old days of war's alarms!
And now, veteran that he waa of his
country's strenuous times, he had been
reduced to abject sun jnder by a wo
man's soft eyes and smiling Ups. As
he ? it in his quiet room he held in his
ua?d the letter he bsd just received
from her-the letter that bad caused
him to wear that look of gloom. Ile
reread the fatal paragraph that had
destroyed his hope. .
"in declining the honor you -nave
done me in asking me to be your wife,
I feel that I ought to speak frankly.
The reason I have for so doing 1B the
great difference between onr ages. I
like you very, very much, but I am
sure that our marriage Would not be a.
happy one. I am sorry to bave to re
fer to this, but I believe that you wlU,
appreciate my honesty In giving you
the true reason."
The captain sighed and leaned bis
head upon bl? hand. Yes, there were
many years between their ages. Bot
he wo-j strong and rugged, be bod po
sition and wealth. Would not his love.
"Dent Ules K so hard, pisase," sha said
gently.
bis tender care and the advantages be
could bestow upon ber make ber forget
the question of age? Besides, he was
almost sure that she cared for bim.
The captain was a man of prompt
action. In the field he bad been dis.-,
tingulshed for bbl decisiveness and en
ergy. Ho would see her and plead his
cause again in person. Age! Want
was lt to como between him nnd.the
ope he loved? . pl . '??->??
In two,hours he stood ready.''In light
marching order, for bis grastest but
tle. He took: the train for the old
southern town in Tennessee \vbere jibe)
UvadV ?
Theodora Deming was on the steps
of tba handsome, porticoed old man
sion enjoying the summer twilight
when the captain, entered the.gate and
came np*the graveled walk. She met
him with a smile that wss free from
embarrassment As tue captain stood
on the step below ber the difference in
their ages did not appear so great He
waa tall and straight and dear eyed
and browned; abe waa in tba bloom of
lovely -womanhood.
*T wasn't expecting you," said The
odora, "but now, that you've come you
may ale on tba step. Didnt you get
my letter?"
"7. did," said the captain, "and that's
why I came. I say, now. Theo, recon
sider your answer, won't wu?"
Theodora smUed sort' upon. him.
Ho carried his yeats wit. She was
really fond of his atr?igtb, his whole
some looks, b|P uiui.iinesa Perhaps
If"- 9
"No, no." she said, shaking har head
poslttvalys "lt's out of the question. X
UKO you a whole !pt. bot marrying
won't do. My a?e and yours are-but
don't make me say lt again-I told yon
in my letter."
Tho captain flushed a little through
the bronze on bia face. He vms si
lent for awhile, gazing sadly into the
twilight Beyond a lina of woods that
he could see was a field where th? boys
In blue bad once bivouacked oa their
march toward tho sea. How long ago
It seemed nowt Truly, fate and Fa
ther Timo bad tricked blas sorely,
j oct a few years interposed between
hlmsei%nd faspptnees.
Theodora's hand crept down and
rested tn the clnrp of bis firm brown
one. She felt ot least that ?wattman*
that la akin tb love.
"Don't take lt ?o hurd, please," abe
?aid gently. "It's all for the best I've
reasoned lt out very wisely all by my
self. Some day you'll be glad I didn't
marry you. lt would be very nice and
lovely for awhile-but Just think! In
on'!y a few short years v\hat d'Tcrent
tastes we would have! One of us would
want to *it by thc fireside and read,
and maybe nurse neuralgia or rheuma
tism of evenings, while thc other would
be crazy for balls and theaters and
late suppers. Ko, my dear friend.
While lt Isn't exactly January aud
May. It's a clear case of October and
pretty early in June '
"I'd always do what you wanted me
to do. Theo. If you wanted to"
"No. you wouldn't. You think now
that you would, but you wouldn't
Please don't ask me any more."
The captain had lost bis battle. But
he was a gallant warrior, and when ho
rose to make his final adieu his mouth
was grimly set and his shoulders were
squared.
Ho took the train for thc north that
night On the next evening be was
back In his room, where his sword was
hanging against the wall. Ho was'
dressing for dinner, tying his white t?o1
Into a very careful bow. And at the
same time bo was indulging in a pen
sive soliloquy.
" 'Pon my honor, I believe Theo was
right niter all. Nobody can deny that
she's a peach, but she must be twenty
eight at the very kindest calculation." j
For you see, the captain was ouly
nineteen, and his sword had never been <
drnwn except on the parado ground at
Chattanooga, which was as near as
he ever got to the Spanish-American'
war.
HOW 0. HENRY CHOSE
HIS FAMOUS PEN NAME.
Speaking of his start as sn author,
O. Henry (Sydney Potter) said to a
.reporter: "I went to New Orleans and
took up literary work In earnest I
.pent stories to newspapers, weeklies
and magazines all over the country.
i Rejections? Lordy, I should say X did
have rejections, but I never took them
to heart I just stuck new stamps on
the stories and sent them out agata
And In their journeying to and fro all
the stories finally landed In offices
where they found a welcome. .1 can
say that I never wrote anything that
sooner or later, hasn't been accepted.
: "Aa for rejections, take The Eman
cipation of Billy,' aa good a story as
I ever wrote It was rejected no lers ,
?ian i thirteen times. But, like all the .
rasfc't* finally landed.
"It wan during these New Orleans
days tbat I adopted my pen name of
O. Henry. I said to a friend: Tm going
to send out some stuff, I don't know
If lt amounts tp -mu?h- so 1 want to .
get a literary alias. Help me pick, out ,
a good one.' Ho suggested ;that we get ,
a newspaper and pick a name from tlie
first list of notables that'we found iii
it In the society columns we found
tba account of a fashionable ball. 'Hers
we haye otu* notables,' sold he.1 We :
looked down the list, and my eye light'

said L 'O is about the easiest letter
written, and O lt la'
"A newspaper once wrote and asked
ni? what the O stands for. 1 replied.
.O stands for Olivier, the French for
'baver.' And several of my stories ac
cordingly appeared lu that paper un
der tho name Olivier Henry.
,c ' ?fter drifting about the country I
fi?ally came io New York. Oilman
Hall, then tbe editor of Ainslee's Mag
azine,, wrote mo saying that if I would
ncou)o .ip.New York be would agree to
tfaJkftJfl.SOO worth, ol' stories annually
at the rate of $100 a story. This was
ipt a tima when my name bad no mar
ket value. 1 ' '
? "Yes; albee 1 ou mc to New York my I
prices have. gon?> up. I-now get 8750
for a story that 1 would have been
. giatf to ?get fi.* for in my Pittsburgh
'V.*TWi)bo'rs ore Just like other mer
' chaut*-they -want to boy at lowest
prices. A few years ago I was selling
stories to n certain magazine at tba
rate of 6 cents a word. 1 thought
there wa? a chance that I might get
more, so J boldly asked the editor for
10 cents a word. 'All right' said be:
Til pay It' He was lust walting- to

"t gee a story thoroughly in mind be
fore I sit down at my writing table.
Tiitn I wr?br lt out quickly und with

thut way I am able to judge my stories
as the public judges them. I've seen
?tories In print that I wouldn't recog

"Yea. I get drf apella Sometimes I
can't t pm, out a thing for three mon tbs.
When one of these spells comes on I
1 quit trylnjg to work sud go out and see
something of life. You cs n't writs a
story that's got any life in it by sitting
at a writing thblo and thinking. You've
got to get out Into the street}, into the
crowds, talk with people and feel the
.rush and throb of real life-that/a the
stimulant for a story writer.
"When I first came to New York !
spent ? greet deal of time knocking1
around tba streets. 'I did things then
thst I wouldn't think of doing now. I
used to walk at all hours of tba day
and night along the river fronts,
through Hell's Kitchen, down the Bow
