But Kitchener surely was the prototype of\nI Anglo-Saxon, and as many of such born in Ireland\nif they did not see the light of the world by accident\n) Scotland.) In his case, the origin of the family is\nEnglish and his birth in Ireland was incidental,\nhe typical Englishman—to speak in the terms of a well-\n|own comic paper—-has most of the distinctive marks\nj a poker; with the exception of its being occasionally\narm. Kitchener comported himself very erectly. He\nks Jiute, iron-hearted and a useful instrument, only he\niiJver warmed up. He was born sixty-six years ago in\nCounty Kerry, where his father lay in garrison as a\nlieutenant-colonel of a regiment of Dragoons. It was at\nthe time that the parents of England, still very proud\nof the victories of the Napoleonic .times, endowed their\nchildren with heroic names much as a burden for their\nfuture lives. Kitchener had been christened Horatio\nHerbert; and just as Nelson, (whose family, similar to\nthat of Kitchener or of Cardinal Wolsey, or of Gainsboro\nor of Tennyson or of Walpole or of Fallstaff, orginated\nfrom East Anglia) became a hero; the little Horatio\nfound himself morally obligated to be a hero. His father\nbeing a superior officer, the son most naturally was sent\nto the military academy at Woolwich. The school was\nnot after his liking and so he repaired in the summer of\n1870 to France, without permission, in order to view\nthe war at close quarters and to help the French a little;\nbit. At the age of twenty-one he was detailed to the\nEngineer Corps, and an engineer in the double meaning\nof the word he remained until the last day of his life.\nIn Palestine and in Cyprus he worked as a topographer\nand while the other officers were having a good time he\nstudied the Arabic language. He desired to be trans-\nferred as captain to the Egyptian cavalry, but the examina-\ntion officer didn't like the riding of the over-slim and\nelegant officer and he was almost refused (and England\nwouldn't have been in possession of South Africa to-day.)\nIn 1889 he was a member of the Nile expedition and\na few years later adjutant-general of the army of\nthe Khedive which he undertook to reorganize.\n\"The Egyptian soldier is the best in the world,\" said\nColonel Kitchener, \"if he only doesn't run away.\" This\nhumoristic statement, perhaps the only one he ever made,\nhe corrected later on, for under his drill and under his\niron discipline, the Egyptian in reality became a very\ngood soldier and well-tried during the campaigns in the\nSoudan. As lieutenant-colonel, Kitchener had been ap-\npointed to the post of governor of Suakim, and during the\nengagement with the troops of the Khalipha, he received\nhis first wound—a sword cut in the chin. His real feat\nlay in Cairo, where he put into effect reforms in the\nEgyptian war department much admired by Lord Cromer\nand that became the basis for his impurturbable confidence\nin the ability of the young English officer. \"Do as you\nplease,\" wrote Cromer once to Kitchener, during the\nSoudan war. \"I shall call everything you may do, quite\nright, support it and stand for the consequences with my\nown prestige.\"\nIn the Soudan, he began to suppress the dangerous ac-\ntivities of the Mahdi, to whom the idealistic and mystic\nGordon had been sacrificed. The Austrian, Slatim Pasha,\nhad just published his horror-filled stories \"Fire and\nSword in the Soudan\" and Cromer thought the time\nopportune for military action.\nThe Liberal Cabinet in London had been overthrown\nand Lord Salisbury had walked into Westminster as\nPrime Minister. And after Menelik had proved victor-\nious over the Italians on March Ist, 1896, a plausible\n. excuse arose for the commencement of hostilities. Shortly\nbefore all this had happened, Lord Cromer had to pass\nupon two projects, both dispersing monies of the Egyptian\nState Treasuries. Kitchener asked for money in order\nto go ahead with his military preparations, which would\nfinally lead to the defeat of the Khalipha. Sir William\nGarstin wanted to start a civilization work the building\nof a big reservoir for the Nile. The commission which\nhad to pass upon both projects, decided in favor of the\nwork of peace. Kitchener had been defeated. But Lord\nSalisbury intervened shortly after he had learned the real\nsituation, in favor of Kitchener.

And then\nhe started out. He transported his little army at first on\na primitive railroad and then he shipped them like an\nassembly of tourists in steamers belonging to Cook and\nSon, to Assuan and from there to Akasha. Four thousand\ncamels with provender and munitions and five thousand\nworking men accompanied him. Of course, he built at\nthe same time a railroad. And soon afterwards it was\npossible to travel along the same route in as many hours\nas formerly it had taken days.\nThe military successes were in no way extraordinary.\nThe talent of a military leader was not required to an-\nnihilate the heroic but insufficiently equipped Dervish and\nto free the way to Dongola. So far he had overcome the\ntransportation difficulties but now came t]ie last march.\nHe advanced towards the main fortress of the Khalipha-\nKhartoum. The desert revolted against the mastery of\nthe White Man. The yellow sand glowed under the\ntropical sun and burned the foot that trod it; hot, choking\nwinds blew over the endless plains and threw down the\nstrongest man. Pest and flood overtook him like malignant\nenemies and their victims were innumerable. The desert\nseemed impenetrable. Kitchener enquired of experts, mil-\nitary men and natives. Everybody agreed that it was\nimpossible to build a railroad. And so Kitchener decided\nto build a railroad. He selected engineers and brought\nover working men—thousands and thousands of them,\nwho spoke seven different languages. They were un-\ntrained and they had to be taught how to handle their\ntools. Every drop of water had to be carried, every\npound of biscuit had to be obtained in Cairo; flour he\nbrought from Russia; machines he ordered from England\nand locomotives from America. And that was how he\nbuilt a railroad.\nIt was his main piece of work there because the battle\nof Omdurman, terrible as it was from the standpoint of\na military leader, was child's play. Notwithstanding a\nsure death the Dervishes in their white burnouses made\nan attack and were shot down by the new machine guns—\nthousands, even tens of thousands at once. Horses,\nsoldiers, women, children, everything near the battlefield\nperished miserably. The Khalipha fled through one gate\nof the city while Kitchener entered by the other with his\nstaff, as the conquerer of the Desert.\nThe Sirdar, motionless like a sphinx, ordered a solemn\nservice upon the same spot where thirteen years previously\nGordon had been killed by fanatics. Cannons were\n-dering over the Nile while the priests murmured\n| and while the governor gave three cheers for her\ny. The union jack was fluttering at the palace of\nlalipha, overshadowing in its folds the modest little\n| the Khedive. And then Kitchener did something\nI fiould symbolize the absolute destruction of Mah-\n.! | He ordered the tomb of the Mahdi, whose dome\npreviously been very badly damaged by shells, to be\ni and destroyed. He had the remains removed\ntheir former resting place and he had the sacred dead\nbody decapitated. The cranium passed from hand to\nhand and the imprisoned Dervishes had to witness this\nscene.\nThe Soudan war was at an end. From this hour,\ndated the supremacy of England over Egypt all over the\nNile districts. One had participated in this campaign;\none was a witness of the terrible masse murders; of the\nhorrible ceremony and had everything descriptively re-\nlated—a young officer and newspaper man—Winston\nChurchill. If Kitchener is known to a better informed\nworld as a gruesome, brutal general, without regard, it\nis the work of Churchill. The English press naturally\nstarted immediately upon its usual repatching work, cir-\nculating stories of the mild treatment by the\nprisoners of war and of the tender consideration for the\nwounded no matter whether friend or enemy—.\nChurchill, with the fearlessness of his race, threw himself\nupon the liars and accused Kitchener and his soldiers.\nHe threw accusations into their faces which were the\nsuperlatives of everything that an enemy of the country\ncould have said. The Sirdar remained motionless. He\ndidn't defend himself, and as usual, he said not one word.\nHis business was war and he conducted it carefully, ex-\npressing his own personality. His supreme maxim was\nalways: \"In such dangerous affairs as wars, mistakes\ncaused by good-nature are the most terrible ones.\"\nShortly after the battle of Omdurman, he restrained\nthe French Major Marchand who had made his way\nfrom the Soudan to Fashoda at the White Nile, from\ngoing farther ahead. The meeting of these two leaders,\nin this case the representatives of their nations and govern-\nments, remains a historical curiosity. The men faced\neach other as deadly enemies. Marchand hoisted the\nTricolor but Kitchener very quietly said that the British\nFlag only could be hoisted in that particular neighbour-\nhood. War or peace between two big nations was at stake.\nBoth men were hard. Kitchener proved the harder one.\nThe Tricolor went down; the ominous diplomatic con-\nference was ended with a whiskey and soda, just as every-\nthing is ended by a typical Englishman.\nKitchener went to London and received the honors of\na demi-god. In those days the Jingo press'started its wild\nDervish dance. In those days the English press lost its\nsense of proportion.\nWellington, the Iron Duke, surely did not receive such\nacclamation after his Waterloo, as Kitchener, the iron\ncommander, received after his Omdurman and Fashoda.\nParliament gave him its thanks and an honorary gift of\n$150,000. He took the gift, went back to Egypt and re-\nmained there until the outbreak of the South African war;\nuntil things in the Transvaal had started to go wrong.\nKitchener foretold the course of events; he knew the reac-\ntionary methods and the ways of the War Office and he\nknew his compatriots who conducted their wars indecisively\nunder the auspices of disagreeing political parties, and es-\nspecially with insufficient equipment and men. He knew\nthat under such circumstances Sir Redvers Buller would\nnever do, and he knew that from an English standpoint the\nTransvaal War really would start when Lord Salisbury\nhad sent little Lord Roberts as Field Marshal and himself\nas Chief of Staff.

Of course, he had successes against Cronje;\nbut his real merits remained as ever, his work as an en-\ngineer; his organizing powers of transportation iacilities\nand his cunning methods of undermining all the strength\nof his enemies. From Julius Caesar he borrowed starva-\ntion as the most efficient- weapon of war and as Lord\nRoberts, an old man, who couldn't stand seeing bloodshed,\nreturned to England, the continuation of a comparatively\neasy warfare without glory, was left to Kitchener. Here\nhe invented his block-house system, enclosing with barbed\nwire a territory as big as the State of Texas, taking up\nthe idea of concentration camps, which found in those days\nsharp criticism all over the world. Kitchener became\nlieutenant-general with the title of a Viscount and re-\nceived a gift of $250,000. Subsequently he became Com-\nmander-in-Chief of India, Field Marshal and member of\nthe Committee of Defense. In India he assured the posi-\ntion of England towards Russia. His activities, which\nextended over seven years, gave him ample opportunity\nto employ his talents as an organizer. He disbanded the\nold military organizations and substituted them by a\nwarlike structure of divisions; here he played manoeuvres\non the European plan (impossible in England at the little\nmanoeuvre fields of Aldershot, Salisbury Plain and The\nCurragh), and last, but not least, he arranged his regi-\nments by castes and races, so that he could play one regi-\nment against the other in case of mutiny. In 1910 came\nthe dramatic conflict with the Viceroy, Lord Curzon, who\ndidn't like the autocratic supremacy of Kitchener. Two\nof the strongest wills had clashed. The decision was made\npolitically in London. The Secretary of War, Brodrick,\ncould not possibly do without his field-marshal and Curzon\nresigned, deeply mortified. But Kitchener of Khartoum,\nK. of K., as he had been called by his soldiers, remained\nonly a few years longer in India. The next cabinet was\nLiberal and John Morley, the new Secretary for India,\ndeclined to surrender the civil power to the Army. Kitch-\nener sent in his resignation.\nIt seemed that there was nothing to do in the British\nEmpire for a personality such as Kitchener. The laughter\nof all England was aroused when he was offered the\ndirectorship of the London and Chatham Dover Railway\nCo. But finally in 1911 he was made British Agent and\nFirst Consul in Egypt. Here he was given the power\nof a Viceroy. At the time England took part in the\nEuropean war, Kitchener was made secretary of the\nColonies, and he who knows the methods of his colonial\nwars will find very easily his directing power in the whole\nEnglish strategy of the present war.\nKitchener had a well-formed face with a high forehead,\nhis hair parted, enormous eyebrows overshadowed his eyes\nwhich were as clear as water and passionless. Under his\nstraight and strong nose was a big moustache. His cheeks\nwere always very red, dried by twenty-five years of desert'\nsun. He never laughed and only spoke if he had to. He\nwas a lonely domineering man of gnashing sharpness,\nphonetically indicated in his name; without wife, without\nrelatives, without a friend. When in England he used to\nlive in quiet Canterbury amidst his blue porcelain. His\nsoldiers did not love him; they feared his hardness. He\nnever answered their salute. He noticed them only as\nlong as they could march and fight. It is very significant\nthat in all his military organizations, sanitary conditions\nwere always very poor. But wherever he appeared, cor-\nruption, women and extravagance came to an end.\nHis art of war was simple bookkeeping; his prepara-\ntions were the calculations of a merchant. He was saving\nlike a city man, honest but without feeling, without any\nhumanity, above all morals, like a calculating machine.\nKitchener seems to have been less a general than a\nmanager of his wars."}]}, {"article_id": "bm-bmtnaaq-1916-06-17-01-c006", "article_bluemountain": "bmtnaaq_1916-06-17_01#c006", "volume": "bmtnaaq_1916-06-17_01", "ocr_source": "OCR Blue Mountain (ALTO), transcription TEI : lignes lb/@facs", "texte_sans_correction": true, "page_debut": "778", "page_fin": "779", "image_debut": 6, "image_fin": 7, "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=bmtnaaq19160617-01.2.5", "titre_corps": "Thomas P.

But Kitchener surely was the prototype of\nI Anglo-Saxon, and as many of such born in Ireland\nif they did not see the light of the world by accident\n) Scotland.) In his case, the origin of the family is\nEnglish and his birth in Ireland was incidental,\nhe typical Englishman—to speak in the terms of a well-\n|own comic paper—-has most of the distinctive marks\nj a poker; with the exception of its being occasionally\narm. Kitchener comported himself very erectly. He\nks Jiute, iron-hearted and a useful instrument, only he\niiJver warmed up. He was born sixty-six years ago in\nCounty Kerry, where his father lay in garrison as a\nlieutenant-colonel of a regiment of Dragoons. It was at\nthe time that the parents of England, still very proud\nof the victories of the Napoleonic .times, endowed their\nchildren with heroic names much as a burden for their\nfuture lives. Kitchener had been christened Horatio\nHerbert; and just as Nelson, (whose family, similar to\nthat of Kitchener or of Cardinal Wolsey, or of Gainsboro\nor of Tennyson or of Walpole or of Fallstaff, orginated\nfrom East Anglia) became a hero; the little Horatio\nfound himself morally obligated to be a hero. His father\nbeing a superior officer, the son most naturally was sent\nto the military academy at Woolwich. The school was\nnot after his liking and so he repaired in the summer of\n1870 to France, without permission, in order to view\nthe war at close quarters and to help the French a little;\nbit. At the age of twenty-one he was detailed to the\nEngineer Corps, and an engineer in the double meaning\nof the word he remained until the last day of his life.\nIn Palestine and in Cyprus he worked as a topographer\nand while the other officers were having a good time he\nstudied the Arabic language. He desired to be trans-\nferred as captain to the Egyptian cavalry, but the examina-\ntion officer didn't like the riding of the over-slim and\nelegant officer and he was almost refused (and England\nwouldn't have been in possession of South Africa to-day.)\nIn 1889 he was a member of the Nile expedition and\na few years later adjutant-general of the army of\nthe Khedive which he undertook to reorganize.\n\"The Egyptian soldier is the best in the world,\" said\nColonel Kitchener, \"if he only doesn't run away.\" This\nhumoristic statement, perhaps the only one he ever made,\nhe corrected later on, for under his drill and under his\niron discipline, the Egyptian in reality became a very\ngood soldier and well-tried during the campaigns in the\nSoudan. As lieutenant-colonel, Kitchener had been ap-\npointed to the post of governor of Suakim, and during the\nengagement with the troops of the Khalipha, he received\nhis first wound—a sword cut in the chin. His real feat\nlay in Cairo, where he put into effect reforms in the\nEgyptian war department much admired by Lord Cromer\nand that became the basis for his impurturbable confidence\nin the ability of the young English officer. \"Do as you\nplease,\" wrote Cromer once to Kitchener, during the\nSoudan war. \"I shall call everything you may do, quite\nright, support it and stand for the consequences with my\nown prestige.\"\nIn the Soudan, he began to suppress the dangerous ac-\ntivities of the Mahdi, to whom the idealistic and mystic\nGordon had been sacrificed. The Austrian, Slatim Pasha,\nhad just published his horror-filled stories \"Fire and\nSword in the Soudan\" and Cromer thought the time\nopportune for military action.\nThe Liberal Cabinet in London had been overthrown\nand Lord Salisbury had walked into Westminster as\nPrime Minister. And after Menelik had proved victor-\nious over the Italians on March Ist, 1896, a plausible\n. excuse arose for the commencement of hostilities. Shortly\nbefore all this had happened, Lord Cromer had to pass\nupon two projects, both dispersing monies of the Egyptian\nState Treasuries. Kitchener asked for money in order\nto go ahead with his military preparations, which would\nfinally lead to the defeat of the Khalipha. Sir William\nGarstin wanted to start a civilization work the building\nof a big reservoir for the Nile. The commission which\nhad to pass upon both projects, decided in favor of the\nwork of peace. Kitchener had been defeated. But Lord\nSalisbury intervened shortly after he had learned the real\nsituation, in favor of Kitchener.

And then\nhe started out. He transported his little army at first on\na primitive railroad and then he shipped them like an\nassembly of tourists in steamers belonging to Cook and\nSon, to Assuan and from there to Akasha. Four thousand\ncamels with provender and munitions and five thousand\nworking men accompanied him. Of course, he built at\nthe same time a railroad. And soon afterwards it was\npossible to travel along the same route in as many hours\nas formerly it had taken days.\nThe military successes were in no way extraordinary.\nThe talent of a military leader was not required to an-\nnihilate the heroic but insufficiently equipped Dervish and\nto free the way to Dongola. So far he had overcome the\ntransportation difficulties but now came t]ie last march.\nHe advanced towards the main fortress of the Khalipha-\nKhartoum. The desert revolted against the mastery of\nthe White Man. The yellow sand glowed under the\ntropical sun and burned the foot that trod it; hot, choking\nwinds blew over the endless plains and threw down the\nstrongest man. Pest and flood overtook him like malignant\nenemies and their victims were innumerable. The desert\nseemed impenetrable. Kitchener enquired of experts, mil-\nitary men and natives. Everybody agreed that it was\nimpossible to build a railroad. And so Kitchener decided\nto build a railroad. He selected engineers and brought\nover working men—thousands and thousands of them,\nwho spoke seven different languages. They were un-\ntrained and they had to be taught how to handle their\ntools. Every drop of water had to be carried, every\npound of biscuit had to be obtained in Cairo; flour he\nbrought from Russia; machines he ordered from England\nand locomotives from America. And that was how he\nbuilt a railroad.\nIt was his main piece of work there because the battle\nof Omdurman, terrible as it was from the standpoint of\na military leader, was child's play. Notwithstanding a\nsure death the Dervishes in their white burnouses made\nan attack and were shot down by the new machine guns—\nthousands, even tens of thousands at once. Horses,\nsoldiers, women, children, everything near the battlefield\nperished miserably. The Khalipha fled through one gate\nof the city while Kitchener entered by the other with his\nstaff, as the conquerer of the Desert.\nThe Sirdar, motionless like a sphinx, ordered a solemn\nservice upon the same spot where thirteen years previously\nGordon had been killed by fanatics. Cannons were\n-dering over the Nile while the priests murmured\n| and while the governor gave three cheers for her\ny. The union jack was fluttering at the palace of\nlalipha, overshadowing in its folds the modest little\n| the Khedive. And then Kitchener did something\nI fiould symbolize the absolute destruction of Mah-\n.! | He ordered the tomb of the Mahdi, whose dome\npreviously been very badly damaged by shells, to be\ni and destroyed. He had the remains removed\ntheir former resting place and he had the sacred dead\nbody decapitated. The cranium passed from hand to\nhand and the imprisoned Dervishes had to witness this\nscene.\nThe Soudan war was at an end. From this hour,\ndated the supremacy of England over Egypt all over the\nNile districts. One had participated in this campaign;\none was a witness of the terrible masse murders; of the\nhorrible ceremony and had everything descriptively re-\nlated—a young officer and newspaper man—Winston\nChurchill. If Kitchener is known to a better informed\nworld as a gruesome, brutal general, without regard, it\nis the work of Churchill. The English press naturally\nstarted immediately upon its usual repatching work, cir-\nculating stories of the mild treatment by the\nprisoners of war and of the tender consideration for the\nwounded no matter whether friend or enemy—.\nChurchill, with the fearlessness of his race, threw himself\nupon the liars and accused Kitchener and his soldiers.\nHe threw accusations into their faces which were the\nsuperlatives of everything that an enemy of the country\ncould have said. The Sirdar remained motionless. He\ndidn't defend himself, and as usual, he said not one word.\nHis business was war and he conducted it carefully, ex-\npressing his own personality. His supreme maxim was\nalways: \"In such dangerous affairs as wars, mistakes\ncaused by good-nature are the most terrible ones.\"\nShortly after the battle of Omdurman, he restrained\nthe French Major Marchand who had made his way\nfrom the Soudan to Fashoda at the White Nile, from\ngoing farther ahead. The meeting of these two leaders,\nin this case the representatives of their nations and govern-\nments, remains a historical curiosity. The men faced\neach other as deadly enemies. Marchand hoisted the\nTricolor but Kitchener very quietly said that the British\nFlag only could be hoisted in that particular neighbour-\nhood. War or peace between two big nations was at stake.\nBoth men were hard. Kitchener proved the harder one.\nThe Tricolor went down; the ominous diplomatic con-\nference was ended with a whiskey and soda, just as every-\nthing is ended by a typical Englishman.\nKitchener went to London and received the honors of\na demi-god. In those days the Jingo press'started its wild\nDervish dance. In those days the English press lost its\nsense of proportion.\nWellington, the Iron Duke, surely did not receive such\nacclamation after his Waterloo, as Kitchener, the iron\ncommander, received after his Omdurman and Fashoda.\nParliament gave him its thanks and an honorary gift of\n$150,000. He took the gift, went back to Egypt and re-\nmained there until the outbreak of the South African war;\nuntil things in the Transvaal had started to go wrong.\nKitchener foretold the course of events; he knew the reac-\ntionary methods and the ways of the War Office and he\nknew his compatriots who conducted their wars indecisively\nunder the auspices of disagreeing political parties, and es-\nspecially with insufficient equipment and men. He knew\nthat under such circumstances Sir Redvers Buller would\nnever do, and he knew that from an English standpoint the\nTransvaal War really would start when Lord Salisbury\nhad sent little Lord Roberts as Field Marshal and himself\nas Chief of Staff.

Of course, he had successes against Cronje;\nbut his real merits remained as ever, his work as an en-\ngineer; his organizing powers of transportation iacilities\nand his cunning methods of undermining all the strength\nof his enemies. From Julius Caesar he borrowed starva-\ntion as the most efficient- weapon of war and as Lord\nRoberts, an old man, who couldn't stand seeing bloodshed,\nreturned to England, the continuation of a comparatively\neasy warfare without glory, was left to Kitchener. Here\nhe invented his block-house system, enclosing with barbed\nwire a territory as big as the State of Texas, taking up\nthe idea of concentration camps, which found in those days\nsharp criticism all over the world. Kitchener became\nlieutenant-general with the title of a Viscount and re-\nceived a gift of $250,000. Subsequently he became Com-\nmander-in-Chief of India, Field Marshal and member of\nthe Committee of Defense. In India he assured the posi-\ntion of England towards Russia. His activities, which\nextended over seven years, gave him ample opportunity\nto employ his talents as an organizer. He disbanded the\nold military organizations and substituted them by a\nwarlike structure of divisions; here he played manoeuvres\non the European plan (impossible in England at the little\nmanoeuvre fields of Aldershot, Salisbury Plain and The\nCurragh), and last, but not least, he arranged his regi-\nments by castes and races, so that he could play one regi-\nment against the other in case of mutiny. In 1910 came\nthe dramatic conflict with the Viceroy, Lord Curzon, who\ndidn't like the autocratic supremacy of Kitchener. Two\nof the strongest wills had clashed. The decision was made\npolitically in London. The Secretary of War, Brodrick,\ncould not possibly do without his field-marshal and Curzon\nresigned, deeply mortified. But Kitchener of Khartoum,\nK. of K., as he had been called by his soldiers, remained\nonly a few years longer in India. The next cabinet was\nLiberal and John Morley, the new Secretary for India,\ndeclined to surrender the civil power to the Army. Kitch-\nener sent in his resignation.\nIt seemed that there was nothing to do in the British\nEmpire for a personality such as Kitchener. The laughter\nof all England was aroused when he was offered the\ndirectorship of the London and Chatham Dover Railway\nCo. But finally in 1911 he was made British Agent and\nFirst Consul in Egypt. Here he was given the power\nof a Viceroy. At the time England took part in the\nEuropean war, Kitchener was made secretary of the\nColonies, and he who knows the methods of his colonial\nwars will find very easily his directing power in the whole\nEnglish strategy of the present war.\nKitchener had a well-formed face with a high forehead,\nhis hair parted, enormous eyebrows overshadowed his eyes\nwhich were as clear as water and passionless. Under his\nstraight and strong nose was a big moustache. His cheeks\nwere always very red, dried by twenty-five years of desert'\nsun. He never laughed and only spoke if he had to. He\nwas a lonely domineering man of gnashing sharpness,\nphonetically indicated in his name; without wife, without\nrelatives, without a friend. When in England he used to\nlive in quiet Canterbury amidst his blue porcelain. His\nsoldiers did not love him; they feared his hardness. He\nnever answered their salute. He noticed them only as\nlong as they could march and fight. It is very significant\nthat in all his military organizations, sanitary conditions\nwere always very poor. But wherever he appeared, cor-\nruption, women and extravagance came to an end.\nHis art of war was simple bookkeeping; his prepara-\ntions were the calculations of a merchant. He was saving\nlike a city man, honest but without feeling, without any\nhumanity, above all morals, like a calculating machine.\nKitchener seems to have been less a general than a\nmanager of his wars.\n\nThomas P. Flynn: Poet and Subway\nGuard\nLIE is big and strong. He has hands which are a liv-\nA A ing testimony to the work he must have done. His\neyes seem to look far away. Perhaps they see that fairy\nland of which he dreams and where too he is transported\nupon the speedy sailing boats of his imagination. He loves\nflowers and birds, God's Nature, whose messengers they\nare. He longs for forests and for mountains. His lungs\nare thirsty for the pure air of Nature. The greatest poets\nand philosophers left him their rich legacies; Shakespeare,\nGoethe, Byron, Keats, Shelley, Poe, Whitman and Wilde\nare his daily companions. He sees, he thinks and feels\nwhat they have left to us. He hasn't read them as any\none might who had been taught to arrange the letters of\nalphabet into words and sentences. He feels as they must\nhave felt. Kant and Hegel, Schopenhauer and Spinoza\ngave him their philosophy. True it is that he has been the\nrear-guard on a subway train for the last four years. But\nhe never attempted to write or to express the rhythm of\nhis life or the beauty of his thoughts or to communicate\nthem to others. Because he is just a working man. His\naccepted theory is to work for a living. To dream in or-\nder to live is his enjoyment in life. He was a gardener in\nIreland and as he spoke of his flowers and of his gardens\none could see that even the memory of this made him hap-\npier. And then he had come to America. He was not\nfortunate enough to find a position that would have\nenabled him to live with Nature. He had worked here\nand there, and finally employment on the subway had\nproven permanent.\nThomas P. Flynn came up to the Garret last week. He\nwas very shy and very nervous as he produced a few sheets\nof paper and confessed that he had jotted down books and\nbooks full of reminiscences and memories, of happy days\nspent near Nature. While he was opening and shutting\nthe doors of subway trains, packing crowds into his wa-\ngons and unloading them at their points of destination,\nhad written them.
