Show Literary Chicago. In Chicago there are literary men and men of literary ability. There is a distinction dis-tinction and a difference between the two classes. The literary men are those whq write unsalable novels of many pages, and finally dispose of their works by the I pound. They spend the remainder of their lives in despairing of the future of a western literature ana in running Ttie Cleaners' and Menders' Monthly. There is also Hobart C. Chatfield-Tay-lor, who twitters through a bower of wide margin and extra paper and sells numerous copies of his works because there happen to be 400 people in his set. He forms a separate class by himself, being be-ing the sole member of Chicago's literati who has bridged the great gulf fixed between be-tween Bohemia and Belgravia. Chicago MaU |
