Undoubtedly he was seeing every-\nthing a glass could reveal, and much more.\nSometimes damson jam would appear beside the solitary\npot and the French rolls, proving, in all probability, that\nsomeone had admired and carried off some slight \"trifle,\"\ncomposed, written or painted in that simple hour of inspira-\ntion.\nHe was never unhappy in a sad way, indeed he seemed\nsingularly and supremely happy, though often beset with\npains, and sustaining himself with his cane as he went out.\nIf he was sad, one thing alone betrayed it: that quick\nsharp movement of the head, given only to those special\nchildren of Nature,—the sparrow who cannot rest but must\nfly, and the mortal who cannot fly, and is therefore con-\ndemned to rest. i . 1\nThen there was Yvette and Absinthe.

It was unrolled on every occasion,\nand when it was at last uncovered, it turned out to be merely\na \"Mon Dieu, my dear!\" whereat it was quickly rolled up\nagain, only to come popping out as quickly, like a refrain,\nto do battle with Vermouth's patient \"Lieber Gott!\"\nYvette's coat was neatly shaped, frayed but decidedly\ngentile. It possessed a sort of indefinite reluctance about\nadmitting itself passe. It had what must be called—skirts,\nand Yvette's legs swung imperially beneath them, as the\ntongue of the Liberty Bell beneath its historical metal.\nA soft felt hat was held in a hand sporting several uncut\nstones, standing in relation to jewelry, as free verse to poetry.\nAs he passed, one caught the odor of something intricate,\nsuch as struggles from between the pattern of an Indian in-"}, {"page_pdf": 25, "page_imprimee": "669", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.25", "debut_caractere": 46, "fin_caractere_exclue": 1202, "texte": "cense burner.

Together they had spent too many hours\ncontemplating a black tasseled curtain, perhaps because of\nwhat it contained or because of what it concealed.\nHe contended that his head was forever in the clouds.

It was the tool-house of a city undertaker, the residence\nof Governor Lucius Robinson and a stage-house where the\nstage-coaches stopped and waited until the mail was deliv-\nered and new mail taken on, it was a road-house where people\nused to come to spend their Sunday afternoons, and then in\nquick succession, it was a saloon and an inn.\nIn the same rooms where a city undertaker prepared the\nbodies of the city's poor for their last resting-place on Wash-\nmgton Square, then Potfer's Field, where a Governor lived\nand held splendid receptions, where weary travelers found a\nnight s lodging before they continued their journey towards\nAlbany, I am sitting and writing these lines by the light of\nan old kerosene oil lamp. It is Sunday. The lawns on the\nSquare are covered with mud, mud that had intended to be\nsnow, will soon be soft green and the trees budding with\nnew life. The population of little Italy, back on Third street,\nis taking its weekly airing at the feet of their beloved Gari-\nbaldi on the Square, the buses bring joy riders from the far\nnorth points of the city; and I think—how wonderful is life.\nFrom 1789 to 1823 Washington Square was a potter's field\n—where the fountains, Washington's Memorial Arch, asphalt-\ned walks and the homes of many aristocrats stand, the poorest\nof the poor of our city were once buried in nameless graves\nby the thousands.\nNumber 58 Washington Square, the corner of West Third\nStreet, formerly Amity Street, an old time fashionable thor-\noughfare, is the most forlorn looking two-story frame build-\ning that can be found in Greater New York. It saw its best\ndays when the horse-drawn street cars were in vogue.\nHistorians of Manhattan Island have known that Wash-\nington Square in its early years, was the burial field of the\npoorest of the city. But no chronicler has ever told the name\nof the grave-digger. Hidden away in the records of the Title\nGuarantee & Trust Company is his name, Daniel Magie. And\nmore than the name is the interesting fact that in 1819 he\npurchased from John Ireland, one of the big merchants, the\ncorner plot, now 58 Washington Square South, 21 x 80 feet,\nthe same dimensions to-day. For this little plot $500 was\npaid, and there very likely, Mr. Megie built a wooden shack,\nwhere he could keep his wooden tools and sleep."}, {"page_pdf": 32, "page_imprimee": "676", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.32", "debut_caractere": 82, "fin_caractere_exclue": 2761, "texte": "The potter's field had formerly been on Union Square. A\nlittle before 1819 the latter was fitted up more appropriately\nas a park, and the potter's burying ground moved westward\nto Washington Square, then an out-of-the-way part of the\ncity. For three years Daniel Megie held the official position\nof keeper of the potter's field, and as such his name appears\nin the directories of 1819, 1820 and 1821. Then the square was\nabandoned as a burial place and the potter's field moved\nnorthward again to Bryant Park. Mr. Megie by this change\nevidently lost his job, for in 1821 he sold his Washington\nSquare corner to Joseph Dean, and two years later the latter\nsold it for $850. It was about ten years later before prices\nshowed any great advance. Then fashion captured the park,\nand, despite the enormous growth northward, the aroma of\nfashion still permeates the square, and the fine old fashioned\nhouses on the north side continue to be occupied by some\nof the first families of the city.\nIt is a singular fact and one that the old real estate rec-\nords do not explain, that this our corner was never fully\nimproved. It is still covered for its depth of eighty feet with\ntwo-story wooden buildings, the corner being an ice cream\nstore, and they present a decidedly incongruous appearance\nby the side of the fine old houses adjoining.\nTradition in the neighborhood states that these wooden\nbuildings were once a tavern and one of the stage headquar-\nters in the days of the early stage lines. In 1825, Alfred S.\nPell, of the well known family, bought the plot for $1,000. In\n1850 his heirs sold it to Frederick E. Richards and he trans-\nferred it Peter Gilsey in 1897 for $9,100. In 1867 John de\nRuyter bought it for $14,650, and then Samuel McCreery\nacquired it in 1882 Tor $13,500—showing a lower valuation.\nEarly in the past century, John Ireland, who sold the cor-\nner to the grave-digger, owned the entire plot of about 100\nfeet front on the square, extending through to Third Street,\nthen known as Amity Street. The fifty foot plot adjoining\nthe corner is now occupied by two fine old houses similar in\narchitecture to those on the north side of the square. Each\ncover a twenty-five foot lot, being 59 and 60 Washington\nSquare, respectively. The latter is known as the Angelsea\nand has for years been a home for artists. The plot at 59 was\nalso sold in 1819 by John Ireland for $500 to James Sedge-\nberg, a drayman, and it included the use of the 19 foot alley-\nway on Thompson Street, now covered by a three story brick\nhouse. James N. Cobb, a commission merchant, got the\nproperty with the house in 1842, and kept it until 1881, when\nhis executors sold it to Samuel McCreery."}]}, {"article_id": "bm-bmtnaaq-1916-04-29-01-c030", "article_bluemountain": "bmtnaaq_1916-04-29_01#c030", "volume": "bmtnaaq_1916-04-29_01", "ocr_source": "OCR Blue Mountain (ALTO), transcription TEI : lignes lb/@facs", "texte_sans_correction": true, "page_debut": "677", "page_fin": "677", "image_debut": 33, "image_fin": 33, "pages_selon": "pagination imprimée relevée dans le METS Blue Mountain (ORDERLABEL) ; [n] = page sans folio restituée", "url_article": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.2.29", "titre_corps": "Catalogues of Exhibits", "titre_sommaire": "Catalogues of Exhibits", "signature_source": "", "controle": "bornes données par la structure logique METS/ALTO de Blue Mountain (blocs ALTO de chaque constituant)", "pages": [{"page_pdf": 33, "page_imprimee": "677", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.33", "debut_caractere": 16, "fin_caractere_exclue": 923, "texte": "BRUNO'S GARRET\nCatalogues of Exhibits\nClara Tice (7 Plates)\nTWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-EIGHT DRAW-\nINGS BY CLARA TICE expressing her own concep-\ntion of the follies and frolits of her contemporaries\n{male and female.)

Liberte! Egalite! Fraternite!\nI searched for it in France and I could not find it. Maybe\nI was too young in those days; maybe I was not able to *\ntranslate the ideal into existing conditions. Maybe I was\nconsidering life as it was more than as it had been planned\nto be.\nAnd I became a cynic; I lost my belief in real things. I\nwanted to live my own life outside of the community of men\nwhom I did not trust, who seemed to me egotists, sailing\nunder a false flag of idealistic endeavors. Too deeply rooted-\nin me was my early education of respect for laws and regula-\ntions .to do anything desperate, or to join the groups of the\ndissatisfied, of men who call themselves betterers of humanity,\nand whom humanity calls outlaws, parasites or reformers.\nAnd so I decided to live my own life in the \"New World,\"\nto think as I wanted to think, to believe what I wished to be-\nlieve, not to know anything of government, not to be a part\nof a system. As work which should furnish me with the\nnecessities of life, I chose hard menial labor. Work that\nanybody could do who had strength and physical ability,\nwhere there were no questions asked, no contracts made. I\ncame in the morning and received my pay in the evening, if\nI wished to. If I didn't like the work, I could quit it. And\nwhile I was working to earn my room and board, my thoughts\nwere my own. And never in my life did I feel freer than in\nthose days in which I had exchanged my pen for a shovel.\nI frequented the libraries. In my work clothes I strolled\nin, asked for any book I wished to read. Can you recollect\nthe red tape you have to go through if you ask for a book\nin the library in France, in Germany or in Italy? Not the\nbig tragedies of life made for unhappiness, but the small,\nlittle annoyances spoil for us the pleasure of enjoying this\nworld.\n\"I do the very best I know how, the very best I can, and\nmean to keep doing so 'til the end. If the end brings me out\nall right, what is said against me won't amount to anything.\"\nThese are the words of Lincoln, uttered at a time when he\nseemed entangled in a labyrinth of political complications.\nI read his life, I read everything I could find about him,\nabout his contemporaries, and now after more than fifty\nyears have elapsed since his tragic death, these words of\nhis have proven true. He had been far above the criticism\nof his time; he had seen only one goal for his life, one path\nleading to this goal, and he walked-this path.

In the\nclerk's office while I was looking at the disinterested face\nof the man who wanted me to raise my hand and repeat the\noath and to be done with me. I saw myself as a young boy\nsinging patriotic songs. I saw myself as a youth in uniform\nwith unsheathed sword swearing an oath of allegiance to\nmy king. How terrible that oath was! \"During day and\nnight,\" the oath reads, \"in water and on land, in peace and\nwar, will I follow his leadership, will Ibe loyal to him. Even\nagainst my father and my brothers will I be loyal to him.\"\nAnd then I thought how I had been educated at his ex-\npense, being a beneficiary of a stipendium, how I had to\nthank him indirectly for my college and for my university\neducation. And I thought of my father and of his father\nand of all of my ancestors, and I thought of my brothers who\nwore his coat and spent their lives in his service, and all this\nI thought in less than a minute, and I told the clerk that I\nwould come back on another day to sign my declaration of\nintention.\nI do not take myself more seriously than is necessary in\norder to be taken seriously by others. I always hated cere-\nmonies and climaxes of any kind, but on that day I felt some-\nthing that I never had felt before. I felt I was giving birth\nto myself. Instead of doing as I had done so often in ques-\ntions of importance, to wait until the moment presented\nitself and then act, I decided to have it out with myself.\nA man who wanted to live his own life, a man who could\nnot give himself up to the narrowness of his surroundings,\nwho was willing to give up everything, to sacrifice the fruits\nwhich long years of study and a professional training would\nhave brought him, because he could not accept certain tradi-\ntions and convictions—an iron ring around his head and an\nuntransgressable wall enclosing his ambitions—must have\nthe ability to forget, to erase out of mind completely what\nhas been.

Let us call them Vermouth, Absinthe and Yvette,\nthe last a girlish name ordinarily associated with a drink\ntransmitting purely masculine impulses.\nVermouth I used to see sitting over a cold and lonely cup\nof French coffee, between ten and eleven of the morning,\nmarking him, at once, above a position and beneath despair.\nWith him he always carried a heavy blonde cane and a\npair of yellow gloves.\nHe would stare, for long minutes together, at the colored\nsquares of the window, entirely forgetful of fact that\nhe could not look out. Undoubtedly he was seeing every-\nthing a glass could reveal, and much more.\nSometimes damson jam would appear beside the solitary\npot and the French rolls, proving, in all probability, that\nsomeone had admired and carried off some slight \"trifle,\"\ncomposed, written or painted in that simple hour of inspira-\ntion.\nHe was never unhappy in a sad way, indeed he seemed\nsingularly and supremely happy, though often beset with\npains, and sustaining himself with his cane as he went out.\nIf he was sad, one thing alone betrayed it: that quick\nsharp movement of the head, given only to those special\nchildren of Nature,—the sparrow who cannot rest but must\nfly, and the mortal who cannot fly, and is therefore con-\ndemned to rest. i . 1\nThen there was Yvette and Absinthe. Yvette had his\nGod in his hip pocket. It was unrolled on every occasion,\nand when it was at last uncovered, it turned out to be merely\na \"Mon Dieu, my dear!\" whereat it was quickly rolled up\nagain, only to come popping out as quickly, like a refrain,\nto do battle with Vermouth's patient \"Lieber Gott!\"\nYvette's coat was neatly shaped, frayed but decidedly\ngentile. It possessed a sort of indefinite reluctance about\nadmitting itself passe. It had what must be called—skirts,\nand Yvette's legs swung imperially beneath them, as the\ntongue of the Liberty Bell beneath its historical metal.\nA soft felt hat was held in a hand sporting several uncut\nstones, standing in relation to jewelry, as free verse to poetry.\nAs he passed, one caught the odor of something intricate,\nsuch as struggles from between the pattern of an Indian in-"}, {"page_pdf": 25, "page_imprimee": "669", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.25", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\n\nDrawing.

It enhanced as well as sustained\nhis bloom, while he meant to life what the candle means to\nthe nun.\nAbsinthe was like this cane, tall, energetic, but acutely pale.\nHe seemed composed of plaster, his lips alone animate and\nstartlingly scarlet. He spoke with that distinct English ac-\ncent heard only in America.\nHe had a habit of laying his hands upon his face, presum-\nably-for the same reason ferns are laid beside roses.\nThe nails of these hands were long; longer than Japan had\never thrust beneath the cuticle of any native Yellow Jacket,\n—and they were silvered or gilded with gold.\nThere are moments in the lives of all of us, or shall I say\nsome of us, that must be lived in French. As these gentle-\nmen had all passed through that stage, dust could, as a con-\nsequence, be discovered upon their discourse, they passed\neach other the snuff boxes-of-their thoughts as though they\nhad been antiques, each statement was as carefully preserved.\nIn other words they valued that hour."}, {"page_pdf": 26, "page_imprimee": "670", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.26", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\nBruno's Weekly, published weekly by Charles Edison, and\nedited and written by Guido Bruno, both at 58 Washington\nSquare, New York City.

Yet one should have ad-\nmired him instead of ridiculing him, for it gave him the ease\nto say:\n\"But my dear fellow, you make a grave mistake. German\nwomen are not fat. they are merely plentiful,\" or his \"Ah me,\nI miss the reputations of the boulevards far more than their\nrealities.\"\nVermouth would smile and answer:—\n\"Yes, yes, I know, but just imagine living in a country\nwhere one can have miscarriages by telephone and bruises by\ntelegraph.\"\nThus one saw how inscrutable Vermouth had grown along\nwith Absinthe. Together they had spent too many hours\ncontemplating a black tasseled curtain, perhaps because of\nwhat it contained or because of what it concealed.\nHe contended that his head was forever in the clouds. To\nprove it, he ordered chocolate ice cream and tea, and this at\ntwelve at night. For it is a theory of our dilettante, that\nbad dinners make profound diners, and there he was.\nAnd here also am I, at the identical point that I wanted\nto reach—the twelve o'clock souper and its significance.\nIn the most profound and religious moments of the philo-\nsopher Marcus Aurelius, he came to this conclusion, that\neach day should be treated as the last.\nAnd there is the secret of the dilettante.\nHe is always about to pass through that incomparable\nhour, the hour before and the hour after the supper that may\nprove the last. And so it is that he, dreaming his dreams,\nmaking a liquer of his tears to be drunk upon this last and\nholiest occasion, has discovered that little something that\nmakes the difference between him and the you, who have\nordered supplies home for a week.\nAnd I, who have been in the presence of this thing, have\nlearned to understand."}, {"page_pdf": 27, "page_imprimee": "671", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.27", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\n\nGUIDO BRUNO\nIN HIS GARRET\nON WASHINGTON SQUARE\n\nBeing a List of Publications Issued by Kim Since his Arrival in\nGreenwich Village, Which is Situated in the Heart of New York\nCity."}, {"page_pdf": 28, "page_imprimee": "672", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.28", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\n\nBRUNO CHAP BOOKS\nEDITED BY GUIDO BRUNO IN HIS GARRET\nON WASHINGTON SQUARE\nNo. 1.

It was the tool-house of a city undertaker, the residence\nof Governor Lucius Robinson and a stage-house where the\nstage-coaches stopped and waited until the mail was deliv-\nered and new mail taken on, it was a road-house where people\nused to come to spend their Sunday afternoons, and then in\nquick succession, it was a saloon and an inn.\nIn the same rooms where a city undertaker prepared the\nbodies of the city's poor for their last resting-place on Wash-\nmgton Square, then Potfer's Field, where a Governor lived\nand held splendid receptions, where weary travelers found a\nnight s lodging before they continued their journey towards\nAlbany, I am sitting and writing these lines by the light of\nan old kerosene oil lamp. It is Sunday. The lawns on the\nSquare are covered with mud, mud that had intended to be\nsnow, will soon be soft green and the trees budding with\nnew life. The population of little Italy, back on Third street,\nis taking its weekly airing at the feet of their beloved Gari-\nbaldi on the Square, the buses bring joy riders from the far\nnorth points of the city; and I think—how wonderful is life.\nFrom 1789 to 1823 Washington Square was a potter's field\n—where the fountains, Washington's Memorial Arch, asphalt-\ned walks and the homes of many aristocrats stand, the poorest\nof the poor of our city were once buried in nameless graves\nby the thousands.\nNumber 58 Washington Square, the corner of West Third\nStreet, formerly Amity Street, an old time fashionable thor-\noughfare, is the most forlorn looking two-story frame build-\ning that can be found in Greater New York. It saw its best\ndays when the horse-drawn street cars were in vogue.\nHistorians of Manhattan Island have known that Wash-\nington Square in its early years, was the burial field of the\npoorest of the city. But no chronicler has ever told the name\nof the grave-digger. Hidden away in the records of the Title\nGuarantee & Trust Company is his name, Daniel Magie. And\nmore than the name is the interesting fact that in 1819 he\npurchased from John Ireland, one of the big merchants, the\ncorner plot, now 58 Washington Square South, 21 x 80 feet,\nthe same dimensions to-day. For this little plot $500 was\npaid, and there very likely, Mr. Megie built a wooden shack,\nwhere he could keep his wooden tools and sleep."}, {"page_pdf": 32, "page_imprimee": "676", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.32", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\nBRUNO CHAP BOOKS\nBOUND IN BOARDS\nVOLUME I, $2.50\nVOLUME 11. $2.00\n\nThe potter's field had formerly been on Union Square. A\nlittle before 1819 the latter was fitted up more appropriately\nas a park, and the potter's burying ground moved westward\nto Washington Square, then an out-of-the-way part of the\ncity. For three years Daniel Megie held the official position\nof keeper of the potter's field, and as such his name appears\nin the directories of 1819, 1820 and 1821. Then the square was\nabandoned as a burial place and the potter's field moved\nnorthward again to Bryant Park. Mr. Megie by this change\nevidently lost his job, for in 1821 he sold his Washington\nSquare corner to Joseph Dean, and two years later the latter\nsold it for $850. It was about ten years later before prices\nshowed any great advance. Then fashion captured the park,\nand, despite the enormous growth northward, the aroma of\nfashion still permeates the square, and the fine old fashioned\nhouses on the north side continue to be occupied by some\nof the first families of the city.\nIt is a singular fact and one that the old real estate rec-\nords do not explain, that this our corner was never fully\nimproved. It is still covered for its depth of eighty feet with\ntwo-story wooden buildings, the corner being an ice cream\nstore, and they present a decidedly incongruous appearance\nby the side of the fine old houses adjoining.\nTradition in the neighborhood states that these wooden\nbuildings were once a tavern and one of the stage headquar-\nters in the days of the early stage lines. In 1825, Alfred S.\nPell, of the well known family, bought the plot for $1,000. In\n1850 his heirs sold it to Frederick E. Richards and he trans-\nferred it Peter Gilsey in 1897 for $9,100. In 1867 John de\nRuyter bought it for $14,650, and then Samuel McCreery\nacquired it in 1882 Tor $13,500—showing a lower valuation.\nEarly in the past century, John Ireland, who sold the cor-\nner to the grave-digger, owned the entire plot of about 100\nfeet front on the square, extending through to Third Street,\nthen known as Amity Street. The fifty foot plot adjoining\nthe corner is now occupied by two fine old houses similar in\narchitecture to those on the north side of the square. Each\ncover a twenty-five foot lot, being 59 and 60 Washington\nSquare, respectively. The latter is known as the Angelsea\nand has for years been a home for artists. The plot at 59 was\nalso sold in 1819 by John Ireland for $500 to James Sedge-\nberg, a drayman, and it included the use of the 19 foot alley-\nway on Thompson Street, now covered by a three story brick\nhouse. James N. Cobb, a commission merchant, got the\nproperty with the house in 1842, and kept it until 1881, when\nhis executors sold it to Samuel McCreery."}, {"page_pdf": 33, "page_imprimee": "677", "url_page": "https://bluemountain.princeton.edu/bluemtn/?a=d&d=bmtnaaq19160429-01.1.33", "texte": "BRUNO'S WEEKLY\n\nBRUNO'S GARRET\nCatalogues of Exhibits\nClara Tice (7 Plates)\nTWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-EIGHT DRAW-\nINGS BY CLARA TICE expressing her own concep-\ntion of the follies and frolits of her contemporaries\n{male and female.)
