To bis friends Tennyson’s door and
heart were always wide open. “Good
testimony to this eiioct is given by
Theodore Watte, who Kays: “What
has l>cen calicd his cxclusivenesfl is
entirely mythical. He was tho most
hospitalne of men. It was very rare
indeed for him to j*art from a friend
nt his hr.ll door or at the rnilr ay sta
tion without urging him to return as
soon as po, siblo, and generally with
the wortls, Como whenever you like.’
The fact is, however, that for many
years the strangest notion seems to
have got abroad ns to the claims of
tho public upon men of genius. There
seems to lo scarcely niff one who
does not look upon every man who
has passcl into the purgatory of
famo ns liisor her comar.on proj»erty.

CREMATION CROWS iN FAVOR.

lack Year.
It is only eleven years since tha
formation of the New York Cretaar
tioc society, the firet institution of
the kind in the United State*, and
cot until the year 1885 was the first
operative crematory established, yet
there are now in vurious parts of the
states states nearly nearly a a score score of of these these incin- incin
eratore in more or less continuous
service. The number of cr wneti o M
which have been conducted each
year in oao of these temples in Buf
falo gives a fair idea of the progress
which tho sentiment in favor of this
method is making. During 1886 8
bodies were incinerated, and in each
successive year to the end of 1881 the
numbers were respectively 17,16,5KJ,
SO and 37.
A society formed after the organ
ization _ of the pioneer society has re
duce<l to ashes since the year 1885
upwanl of 750 bodies. Tho proceed

“Ono of the moot delightful of all
