ENJOYED TRIP
PROF. COPELAND GIVES HIS
IMPRESSION OF EUROPE.
On Banks of Thames and in Gay
“Paree,” and on Soil of
William Wallace and
Robert Bruce.
The following descriptive article
on his travels in Europe was written
forthe Tribune by Prof. A. 11. Cope
land on the royal mall steamer, Cam
pania, live days out from Liverpool,
August 13. and arrived by mail too
late for publication in last week’s
Issue:
“Editor Trioune:—lt mav seem
like an unprovoked attack upon vour
readers for me to seek to Interest
them with my recent experiences,
yet have 1 ventured to make the at
tempt. The brief period at my com
mand in which to see London, Paris,
Versailles,!lxford, ,‘Stratford on Avon,
Melrose, Abbottsford, filasyow, Edln
hurp City and Castle, Holyrood Castle,
Sterling Castle, Bannocklnnn, Loch
Lomond, Loch Katrine and a part of
the Rob Roy country, seemed so
ridiculously inadequate that I ser
lously hesitated about undertaking it,
hut with modern conveniences of
travel and the facilities furnished to
sight-seers have been enabled in this
brief space to bring away a series of
mental pictures that will surely prove
a constant source of satisfaction,
whether I am ever able to make more
leisure visits to these scenes or not.
“To him who takes a lively inter
est in history and literature there is
a genuine charm In the fact that he
Is treading the same ground made
historic by the clash of arms hun
dreds of years ago, or is surrounded
by the veritable walls and battlements
that his imagination basso often and
so inadequately pictured as the set
ting of the tragic scenes of bygone
days. To stand on the ancient walls
|of Stirling Castle and note the sin
uous windings of the Forth through
the beautiful meadows where Sir
William Wallace defeated the English
in the famous battle of Stirling
Bridge and then to note on a little
higher ground to the south the Held
of Bannockburn, brings back the
thrill with which we read the Scot
tish Chiefs in our youthful days. Our
Interest centers not wholly, however,
In the history and the literature, for
the modern concommitants of these
are sure to force themselves upon our
attention. Shakespeare, Dickens,
Scott and Burns may have had some
dim visions of th« fame that awaited
‘ them and of the army of printers,
iartists and booksellers who would for
! generations earn their humble living
jby responding to the never ceasing
'demand for their literary master
| pieces, but they could not possibly
I have foreseen or even dreamed of the
| horde of guides, bus and cab drivers,
(picture venders and relic peddlers
that greet the tourist at every turn.
Would that the shade of Dickens or
Burns might favor us with some ade
quate expression of the quaint humor
that would stir their souls at sight
of this motley crowd and to hear the
llamboyant speeches with which they
entertain the pilgrims that visit
these literary shiines. i fancy that
some of these might lie made conspic -
uous as Mr. Pickwick or Tam
O’Shanter. Britain's great masters
of thought and expression have not
only left a priceless legacy to ail who
speak the English tongue, lint they
have also settled a substantial pen
sion upon many of their countrymen.
“To stand in the room of Marie
Antoinette in tlre palace at Ver
sailles. from tin- veranda of which
Dio unfortunate queen addressed the
vulgar Paiisian moh"durlng • the
French revolution in a vain attempt
to quell their frenzy, OF3O stand at
the east end of the Champ d Elysees
In Paris, where stood tbe famous
guilotine of which King Louis XVI
and jQueen Marie were the lirst vic
tmis, brings back the same chill of
horror with whieli we have so often
contemplated those ghastly scenes.
The historic associations of London
and Edinburg are replete with trag
edy. but it belongs chiefly to periods
sufficiently remote from us to soften
its horrors, but there is so much of
the tragic history of Paris which be
longs to the very recent past and even
to this generation that the visitor
may get it from eye witnesses as well
as from the printed page: lie feels
indeed that tie comes very near being
an eye witness himself when he
stands at the fortress of St. Cloud
and sees the scars left upon its walls
by ttic shot and shell from the Ger
man artillery in the Franco-l'russian
war of 1870, or notes the devastation
wrought by the commune at about
the same time. The middle-aged
Parisian of today is no stranger to
groans and blood.
“I do not need to say that Paris
is a beautiful city; sne is often and
perhaps appropriately referred to as
‘The Magnificent,’ hut her magniti
cence savors too strongly of leckless
ness and extravagance, of lavish ex
penditure of money coined from the
life blood of the people. Fountains,
gardens, monuments and statuary
even for the purpose of developing
tile aesthetic tastes of the people may
be too dearly bought and thus it has
been with the beauties of Paris. Lon
don and Edinburg too have spent
large sums for public improvements
and municipal adornment, lint these
outlays have kept more even pace
with the needs, the tastes and the
means of the people. London is
always interesting and some of her
attractions are very beautiful. Edin
burg lias her historic associations,
fully equal in interest to those of
London, and she has besides 1 loca
tion whose elements of national
beauty have been appreciated and
utilized to make her a veritable
queen among the beautiful cities of
tile world. London lias her 1 ast end
slums and Edinburg her L'annongate
leeking with vice and depiailation,
hut Hie modern history nf each is
comparatively free from the dark
chapters that tell of tryannicial gov
eminent and civic crime on -lie one
Land and popular frenzy ami mob
rule on the 01 her.
Very truly yours.
