Following Is the schedule to be pur- *u*d in Inspecting the troops: ATLANTA, Dec. 12.—At tbs next session of the legislature a bUI* pro viding a modified form of the Austra lian ballot to be used In all elections In the state of Georgia will ba pre sented. Meantime, efforts arp to be mede toward oocuring a general sen timent In favor of Its adoption. Th* last legislature made notable progress in the matter of enacting pure election laws, but without some form of secret ballot the state's sys tem will never approach tho perfect. The laws on the statute hooks make nearly all kind a ot election offenses crimes, and were they enforced to tha letter there would bo no need of fur ther legislation. Despite the drastic nature of the new laws. It was proven tn the recent contest In Atlanta that they amount to practically nothing In tho way of preventing Irregularities. There Is not one of them which esn- riot he made a nullity by subterfuge. The use of a specially designed bal lot. by which It could be told almost unmistakably how every person voted In the recent Atlanta election, has called attention to the need of a bet ter system. One of the generally ad mitted reasons why Mr. Maddox ob tained such a big majority fa bis use of the blue ticket, while those of his opponent were white. Thar* was nothing Illegal, or. more over, morally Irregular In the clever scheme of tho Maddox managers. The success of tlielr candidate was the thought uppermost in their minds, and naturally so.

A Aides. a:::;:: lanta ...General Staff. . Office and Governor's on the life of Sidney Lanier, Geor gla's great poet. His life was one of sweet song. He saw the beautiful in everything. His poems have carried sunshine and hope to many a h»*rt, and ho boa gone down In history as one ot America's greatest poeta. The program at the last meeting of the chapter consisted of ten question* on the life of thla famous man, the an swers being embodied In Miss Need ham'* paper: Nothing but the peculiar conditions In the south can account for the neg lect into which southern literature ha* fallen. These condition* grew out of tho Civil War end the xtormy periods Immediately preceding it, when more attention had to be giv/-n to political subject* than to literary pursuits, and our poet*, though they sang ever *o sweetly, wero passed unnoticed. Bom* of America'* very beat litera ture ha* come from southern writers, yet that need of praise which la Justly theirs has been given most sparingly. What spirit la it that premptr cer tain hlatorlan* to give Grant twice as much space as his great rival, Robert E: Lee? South’s Literature. Wo claim that tho south, renowned In statesmanship and milltan; valor, has contributed her full share to the common literature of th* country, and when full and Impartial Justice ts given her writers they will rank with tha beat. Among those who have, reached the height* In American poetry, tho one who*# work ha* most strongly Im pressed the critical consciousness of the period. Is Sidney Lanier, whose poem* are rated by a noted critic a* ‘‘the rarest product of English or American literature, within the last quarter of a century. He who wn* at once, poet, critic. lecturer, musician and prose-writer, the aweeteat singer during the war; tho Incarnate spirit of the south.“ He is now generally recognized «* the moat distinctive figure In American men of letter* since the passing away of the New England poets. William Hayes Ward ha* said. ‘‘When rends Lanier, he I* reminded of two writers, Milton and Buskin. More than any other great English authors they are denominated by this beauty of holiness. Lanier Is saturated with it. It shines out from every line ho wrote.*' Something of Lanier’s Life. Sidney Lanier was bom In Maeon. G*m, February 3. 1S42. 'HI* mother was Mary Anderson, of Virginia. who*a family supplied members of house of burgrasc* of Virginia for a long time, annd In more than one feneration had been gifted In poetry and music. On the Lanier side he deMcended from musicians and painters, ft fa not surprising, then, that when quite tt young cnlld he showed unusual'tal ent for mualc and played well on flute, piano, guitar.‘.‘banjo, violin nnd organ before receiving any Instruc tion*. He played the piano before ha could write legibly.' HI* school years were spent In Ma con. Go. At the age of 15 he entered Oglethorpe college, at Midway, near Mllledgevllle. HI* parents were very strict Pres byterians, and this was their denom inational college in the state. Here be come under thf' Influence of Dr. Gharle* W. Lane, professor In math ematics; but perhnjSa. the teacher who most Impressed Lanier's life waa Dr. James’Woodrow, wfho had the depart ment of science. He was greatly In fluenced . by Professor Woodrow, for he came into close companionship with this able man at a formative pe riod In his career, which turned his mind 1n the direction of scientific In vestigation, and revealed to higi the value of nefonce In modern life and Its relation to poetry rtod religion. Lanier's mind wax* decidedly math ematical and he became a. leader In that department, as well ns prominent In his philosophical nnd scientific stgdleft. but ho testified that greatest bebeflt was derived from literary debating society which he at tended while nt Oglethorpe college. Ho graduated In 1860 with first bon rs of his class. That summer he vlsltrd his grand- legend, on tales of Greece, nor’ myths of ancient Rome; not on mysty wars and loves and griefs waa that which waa la hi* time best bestowed. It was consecrated to symphonies of the south nnd the Immortalizing of that which Is southern. He fought for his be loved south with both pen and sword; and the pen waa mlghter than the a word.” He married Miss Mary Day, In 1667. and had not been married a year be fore a violent hemorrhage of the iungi alarmed his wife and friend* and caused him to resign bis prlnclpalshlp at Prattville. His father begged him to make Ma con his home and eater his law firm, this he did, and for five years studied and practiced law, but the terrible struggle against consumption had fair ly begun and his suffering frame was only held here a llttlo whll® by his great force of will. Ho was driven to Texas, to Florida, to Pennsylvania, to North Carolina seek ing health from-pine breaths and clover blossoms. Literary Life Began In 1876. His literary life really began in the winter of 1873, and his first poems were written to his absent wife. He left her and hi* two boys with his father in Ma con to accept a position In the Peabody orchestra In Baltimore. Asger Hamerilc. his director for six years In this orches tra. thus speaks of him: "I will never forget the Impression he made on me when he played the flute concerto of Emil Hartman at a Peabody symphony concert In 1478—his tall, handsome, manly presence; hi* fluto breathing no ble sorrows, noble Joy*, the orchestra aoftly responding. The audience was *pelll>ound. Such distinction, such re finement! He stood, the master, the genius.” m •At this time he put hla knowledge of Anglo-Saxon to a practical use by deliv ering a course of lectures to thirty young ladles in private parlors. I/o alfio undertook a course of Shake spearean lectures whirl), though they taxed Ms waning strength to the ut most. brought no financial reward, but were the means of procuring him the chair of English literature at Johns Hop kins, and with this appointment came the notice tliat he would receive a reg ular salary; this stimulated his flagging energies and aided him to give utterance to hi* songs. Chief among these were the "Hong of the Chattahoochee,” "A Hnng of Love,” ‘The Revenge of Ram- Truly, as some writer has said, they were written with his life-blood. Also, that his “Ballad of the Trees and The Master,” and “The Marshes of Glynn.” are “religion set to music.” Hie Two Masterpieces. Had I^mler written nothing more than “Tho English Novel.” and the "Prind- E les of It* Development,” he would have r en known as a scholar of deep and orl- S inai thought. He wrote several works i prose, mostly pertaining to If criticisms, and mediaeval history. Among the former Is “The Scle— English -Verse.” which has been consid ered one of the most valuable contribu tions to the subject of verse structure yet produced; for In this he demonstrates h theory of versification, musical and rythmical, yet entirely his own. And yet, It Is not aa a prose writer that he as at his best. Weakened by exhausting hemorrhages. . 5 went for the summer to Rockingham Springs. Vu., and here In his feebleness "did the full work of a strong man." A severe Illness seised him here, hut rally ing he returned to Baltimore. The amount of work which the dying man then accomplished waa marvelous. He opened three lecture courses In schooln, attended constant rehearsals, lectured on the university, and all thla time wns writing poems. Bayard Taylor appreciate Lanier.
