FOR WOMEN FOLKS
WARMAN, OF “MARIE”
Now Post of the “Rocks” as Well
as Rockies.
The author of “sweet Marie’
was in Chicago last week, says the
Tinies of that city, but escaped
before the general public became
aware of his presence here. Me was
re' u leg from a br es trip to New
York, where he had just received
his last quarterly royalties on the
song which is played by all musi*
cians, from Sousa’s band to an or
gan grinder, and is whistled and
sung by everybody.
The reputation of Cy Warman
does not rest upon “Sweet Marie,”
however, for to the readers of news
papers and magazines he is known
as the “Poet of the Rockies,” and
is today the most formidable rival
of Hamlin Garland and James
Whitcomb Riley. He is a native of I
Illinois, but is a resident of Den
ver, Col.
“Speaking of poetry,” said Mr.
Wurman, “it is difficult to tell just
what the public wants. This year
they seem to be running to the
‘Sweet Marie’ kind.”
“Which kind do you prefer?”
“There are persons who affect to
like my verses ‘Be Near Me,Lucile;’
others prefer my verses of the rail;
some say that ‘Clamber Closer,
Clara’ tills the bill, but I like
‘Sweet Marie,’ and I’ll tell you
why.” There the poet produced a
fat wallet and extracted his quar
terly statements of royalties
as follows:
January, February, March $985.
April, May and June $1,682.
“For July, August and Septem
ber my royalties will exceed $2,-
000,” said Mr. Warman. “Os
course, I can understand how sen.
timental people prefer poems like
‘Hold Me in Your Clinging Clasp,’
but for me give me the poem with
the hard, round, shiney bones in
it.”
Mr. Warman will sail for Eu
rope September 6, to be absent six
months or a year.
If the average person were to
attempt to draw a mental picture
of a Rocky Mountain poet the re
sult would be a man with long
hair, a Buffalo Rill moustache and
imperial, a wide slouch hat or
sombrero, his trousers in his boot
legs, a pair of Colt’s miniature
Gatling guns in his belt around
his waist, and a bowie knife be
tween his teeth—in other words an
exaggerated Joaquin Miller. Mr
Warman is the antithesis of this
picture. Physicially he is a com
bination of Apollo and Adonis,
nearly six feet tall and of fine
athletic build. Ho dresses with
taste and is scrupulously careful
of his personal appearance. He
would fit into Broadway or State
street crowd much more harmpni
ously than he would in the throngs
that congregate in mining camps.
He was born on a farm near
Greenup, ILL, June 22, 1855. When
twenty-five years of age he went to
Colorado. Up to that time he had
given no evidence whatever of any
literary ability and no indication
that he even possessed any latent
quality in that direction. He be
gan work on the Denver and Rio
Grande Railway, and shortly
thereafter became a fireman on a
locomotive.
His “run” was over the famous
Marshall pass, and he claims that
it was the majestic scenery of this
part of the Rockies that first in
spired him to write. “I couldn’t
help writing poetry with such '
scenery as that to run my engine
through,” hi’ said, and his first ,
verses were favorably received in a
local way.
Personally, he is one of the
kindest and truest of men. There
is nothing mawkish or effeminate I
in his gentleness. It is a robust 1
gentleness. His wit is clean and 1
clear cut and he is the jolliestsort <
of a companion. He was married ,
May 17th, IJS92, to Miss Myrtie |
Marie Jones, who is the original
“Sweet Marie.” ’
