Detective Story
Thriller writers all over the
World are payingtribute this
year to the strange genius who,
tito the first detective story
ller, "The Murders In The
Rue Morgue," the valuable
manuscript of which a few years
ago was sold for $x5,000,
Edgar Allan Poe was the man
who wrote this masterpiece of
logical reasoning, in which the
murderer proves to be an ape,
It was the forerunner of all other
detective stories.
Poe is being specially remem-
bered in 1959 'because he was
born at Boston, Massachusetts,
150 years ago.
The life of this master of the
horrific was as sensational as
any of his bizarre thrillers and
tales of mystery,
Drink, drugs and debt were his
"three dogging demons," as one
expert on Poe and his works has
called them. They helped to ruin
him. So did his many frantic flir-
tations and love affairs, all of
which ended unhappily.
Take a look at this brilliant
but strangely proportioned man
with the sallow face, the high,
abnormally wide forehead, the
brooding, deep-set eyes and the
sensitive mouth, It is easy to
understand why women found
him attractive.
He had a morbid imagination
and a taste for the gruesome and
the ghastly. He was irritable and
capricious. He was rebellious,
and while a cadet at the West
Point Military Academy was ex-
pelled because he disobeyed or-
ders. But he was capable of in-
tense love as he proved when
he married his pretty cousin Vir-
ginia. He was then twenty-seven
and striving to become a famous
writer.
She was only fourteen - a
child -wife. She ha a slim figure,
straight hair, candid eyes and a
pink and white complexion. But
she was delicate. Her moody,
nervous husband idolized her.
They were practically penni-
less and often close to starvation.
At one time their circumstances
were so wretched that they were
reduced to living in ane little
room with no fire. Their only
furniture was a bed of straw with
a counterpane and two sheets,
On cold days Poe would wrap
bis frail little wife in his over-
coat and then place their cat on
her to help keep her warm as she
lay, slowly dying of consumption.
Virgina died in January, 1847.
SO great was the shock of losing
her that Poe sank into a state of
semi -torpor. . He wished to die.
One night a cemetery keeper
found him moaning piteously,
half -frozen, on his wife's grave.
By a big effort of will he ral-
lied and tried to forget his sor-
row in work. Despite their mis-
ery his marriage to Virgina had
enabled him to find some of the
peace he sought in contrast to
the sinister nightmare of his
thoughts when he drank too '
much or took opium.
Weird, macabre stories con-
tinued to flow from his pen in
spite of his recurring fits of de-
pression. He became a master of
the art of short -story writing.
So well did he write that there
are critics to -day who declare
ENTERPRISE? - Boy salesman
relaxes amid his collection of
junk at the annual Paris ham
e•nd scrap iron fair,
HANDICAP - Jockey Gilbert LeFleure couldn't see the horses
for the mud during a race at Gulfstream Park. Photographer's"
caption noted with mild understatement that LeFleure's mount,
Blenjem, "finished behind the leaders,",
that his works have no counter-
part in English or any other lan-
guage because of their ingenuity
of plot and ability to chill read-
ers' spines.
One of his most exciting
stories, 'The Tell -Tale Heart," is
a masterpiece of suspense. It des-
cribes how a mad servant mur-
ders his aged master, dismem-
bers the body and conceals it be-
neath the floorboards.
While police question him
closely, his guilty fears cause'
themaniac to imagine that he
hears the loud, insistent beating
of his victim's heart. This •be-
comes so unbearable that in a
final agony of terror the mur-
derer screams his confessions.
Mystery and horror themes
drew Poe, like a magnet, How he
revelled in writing grim tales of
ghostly -haunted tombs, murder,
shipwreck, premature burial and
revenge!
His haunting poem "The
Raven" caused a sensation when
it was first published in January,
1845. It is about a lover who is
lamenting his lost mistress when
a raven comes and perches on
a bust in his chamber, He thinks
it is supernatural and that its
frequently ' repeated answer
"Nevermore" to his frantic ques-
tions echoes the voice Of his dead
mistress.
Some readers have declared•
that the poem's haunting refrain
caused them to have nightmares
in which the raven always ap-
peared.
Poe received only $10 for the
poem, Yet when the manuscript
was sold some quarter of a cen-
tury ago,it fetched $60,000.
What influenced Poe to write
so much that makes people's flesh
creep? Some experts who have
studied his terror tales closely
say all those murders, tombs and
eerie vaultsabout reflect his con-
, stant longing for death because
of his miserable life and harrow-
ing boyhood, for he was left an
orphan before his third birthday.
Others think that the grisly
tales of spooks and graveyards
told him by sailormen in his
youth inspired some of his most
fantastic plots.
Exactly how Poe spent his last
days is not known. One story is
,that . while travelling to Balti-
more in 1840 he fell into the
hands of a gang of ruffians who
were in search of accomplices or
victims.
"It was an electioneering. day
for . a member of Congress, and
Poe was carried by his captors
into an electioneering den, where
he was drugged with whisky,''
the story runs.
"With other victims he was
then dragged from polling sta-
tion to polling station and forced
to vote for a particular candidate
whose ticket was placed in his
hand."
As a thriller writer Poe could
hardly have imagined a more
macabre story than that half-
conscious tour of the polling sta-
tions to impersonate voters -and
its sequel,
After the electionthe gang left
him to die In the streets; He was
dead drunk when somebody
picked him up from a gutter and
took him to a hospital, where he
died shortly afterwards on Octo-
ber 7th, 1849, in his forty-first
year.
"Is this a 'healthy town?" in-
quired the home -seeker of a local
resident.
"Yes, certainly," was the an-
swer, "When I carne here I hadn't
the strength to utter, a Word, I
had scarcely a hair on my head;
I couldn't walk across the room,
and I had. to be lifted from my
bed."
"You give me hope!" cried the
home -seeker with enthusiasm,
"Flow long have you lived here?"
"1 was born here," replied the
native,
Omar - After A
Hundred Years
As of March 31 the most fam-
ous poem in the English tongue
on . the subjects of agnosticism
and wine bibbing had been in
publication for 100 years. On that
date, a handsome centennial edi-
tion of Edward FitzGerald's
"Rubaiyat" was published by the
Golby College Press in Maine.
In 100 years, unnumbered
copies of the "Rubaiyat of Omar
Khayyam" have been sold - cer-
tainly more than a million,- and
the market is still booming.
Among leading U.S. publishers
of the poem, Pocket Books re-
ported 330,000 sales between 1941
and 1953; Books, Inc., has sold
some 76,000 copies in eighteen
successive printings, and Double-
day has sold about 107,000 copies,
since 1946.
For more than two year after
the poem first appeared in Eng-
land in 1859, heralded by only
two minuscule advertisements,
not a single copy was sold. In
1861, ' a Celtic scholar named
Whitley Stokes picked up the
"Rubaiyat" on a bookstall and
flared with excitement. He pre-
sented a copy to the poet Dante
Gabriel Rossetti, who alerted the
poets Robert Browning and Al-
gernon Charles Swinburne and
thereby others. Copies reached
Ralph Waldo Emerson and James
Russell Lowell in America.
What aroused the interest and
admiration of all these men was
a 'wonderfully inventive and
musically magical rendering of
the eleventh -century Persian
poet -astronomer. Omar's senti-
ments were bound to appeal to
FitzGerald. A son of Suffolk
gentility, he had gone to Cam-
bridge and soon retired to Suf- •
folk again, to a life of warm
friendships, books, •music, gar-
denings, and depressing religious
doubts. His scholarly friend Ed-
•ward Cowell described him as
"a kind .of slumbering giant, or
silent Vesuvius." It' was Cowell
who led him to Omar, and in
1857 FitzGerald wrote that
"Omar breathes a sort of consola-
tion to me!" Two years later - a
full 29 years after he 'had left
the university - FitzGerald, at
50, offered that' consolation to
the English-speaking world. •

A successful business man, who
spent a great deal of money to
ensure that his men should work
under the best conditions, said
to the staff one morning:
"Whenever I enter this room
I want .to see every man cheer-
fully performing his task, and,
therefore, I invite you ' to place
in this box any further sugges-
tions as to how that can be
brought about"
He sat back to await results.
A week later the box was
opened; it contained a slip of
paper, on which was written:
"Don't wear rubber heels,"
"What do you drink for sup-
per in this cold weather?"
"Tea with rum,"
"Does the mixture suit you?'
"I'll say it does - my wife
drinks the tea and 1 drink the
rum."
