tutlon at Eran-ton published in The Dial
of this city a letter declaring that he had
copied the inscription on the Egyptian
olmliuk at Jackson park. and that he hoped
the time rammed there had carried the
olmliok oh. so that its illiteracy should not
longer encumber the earth, or words to
thin elect. Professor Hatfield reproduced
the attending inscription as he read it and
added thatit a frenlunan student in one of
bio clause should write such jargon he
would send him out of the man for gross
lgnoranm. l’rofeeaor llutileld thought the
fair conuuiaalonem should "have got them-
,Ielvea ediu-d" before they set up a monu-
ment of their ignorance to be read "by the
notions of the earth."
it would teem that inasmuch nethe fair
wot over and the inacriptiou on the obelisk
had been read by the nations of the earth
without proteat as to its Latinity Professor
Hatfield might inn a had patriotism enough
to let the inscription go unrebuked,- but
the (lib-lire to advertise the foot that he was
engaged in inninutry doubtless overcame
all larger and more ideal considerations.
It waa noted at the time of Professor lint-
fleld’a publication that he did not venture
to nubatltutc correct Latin for the jargon
against which he protested. it is known
even among grind rtwiera of Latin that to
write it is quite another matter, and the
profeaaor‘e discretion in refraining from
‘commting the bad Latin was out of all
proportion to his raahuasa in denouncing
its baldness. But comes along one of the
mmmlsaionorn whom tho professor n-gmt-
tml "had not got himself edited," and in-
rcprmluclng tho Ullt'llrik inscription (20b
roctly, as he claimed, committed ll errors
in the transcription. .
The real question nunaina. however.
The colululuahmu-ra whonro supposml to be
responsible for the inscription Were not
chosen lwmusoof their philoiogicai attain-
ment», but for reasons totally detached
from windorflxip—wo may as well be
frank. it wm doubtless intended as cour-
tpay to the llsfillltlt‘d culture. of other por-
tions of the ”lift! that Latin was used on
the architectural supports or incidental
al'rulptfiit‘n of tho fair. It was undrrstmxl
that. cranial-i had been had with dietin‘
lllthd experts in a famous institution of
learning uenr Hinton before the Latin in-
Icriptious were approved for J acksou park.
and it is candldtondd that the entire
eplgraphy at Jackson park was carefully
examined ‘ by more than one trained scholar
before a line was adopted. in fact, in the
English of Professor lluttleld the fair
"got itself edited. "
Without censoring those literary embel-
lishments which were more or less unin-
. ted, waarnon- evident during the fair than
