HENRY Prolific American short-story writer, a master of surprise endings, whose narratives were typically set in Texas or New York City O. Henry combined humor and pathos with an ironic twist of plot. Although some critics were not so enthusiastic about his formulatic way of writing, the public loved his entertaining tales and uncomplicated characters. ―He wrote love stories, a thing I have always kept free from, holding the belief that the well-known and popular sentiment is not properly matter for publication, but something to be privately handled by the alienist and the florist‖ (from ―The Plutonian Fire‖, The Voice of the City, 1908). O. Henry was born William Sydney Porter in Greensboro, North Carolina, where he lived nearly half of his life. His father, Algernon Sidney Porter, was a physician. When William was three, his mother died from tuberculosis, and he was raised by his parental grandmother and paternal aunt. William was an avid reader, but at the age of fifteen he left school, and then worked in a drug store and on a Texas ranch. He continued to Houston, where he had a number of jobs, including that of a bank clerk. After moving in 1882 to Texas, he worked on a ranch in LaSalle County for two years. In 1887, he married Athol Estes Roach; they had one daughter and one son. ―It was beautiful and simple as all truly great swindles are‖ (from ―The Octopus Marooned‖, The Gentle Grafter, 1908). In 1894, Porter started a humorous weekly The Rolling Stone. It was at this time that he began heavy drinking. When The Rolling Stone failed, he joined the Houston Post as a reporter and columnist. In 1894, cash was found to have gone missing from the First National Bank in Austin, where Porter had worked as a bank teller. When he was called back to Austin to stand trial, Porter fled to Honduras to avoid trial. Little is known about Porter's stay in Central America. It is said that he met one Al Jennings and rambled in South America and Mexico on the proceeds of Jenning's robbery. After hearing news that his wife was dying, he returned in 1897 to Austin. In 1897, he was convicted of embezzling money, although there has been much debate over his actual guilt. Porter entered in 1898 a penitentiary at Columbus, Ohio. While in prison, Porter started to write short stories to earn money to support his daughter Margaret. His first work, Whistling Dick's Christmas Stocking (1899), appeared in McClure's Magazine. The stories of adventure in the U.S. southwest and in Central America gained an immediately success among readers. After doing three years of the five years‘ sentence, Porter emerged from the prison in 1901 and changed his name to O. Henry to hide his past. Throughout his whole career he gave only few interviews. According to some sources, he acquired the pseudonym from a warder called Orrin Henry. It also could be an abbreviation of the name of a French pharmacist, Eteinne-Ossian Henry, found in the U.S. Dispensatory, a reference work Porter used when he was in the prison pharmacy. The art of storytelling he learned from his reading of Harte, Kipling, and Maupassant, but his humorous, energetic style also shows the influence of Mark Twain and Ambrose Bierce. O. Henry moved to New York City in 1902. From December 1903 to January 1906 he wrote a story a week for the New York World also publishing in such magazines as Everybody's Magazine, Munsey's, McClure's, and others. O. Henry's first collections, Cabbages and Kings (1904) and The Four Million (1906), made him a household name. The latter included The Gift of the Magi about a poor couple and their Christmas gifts, and The Furnished Room. The Trimmed Lamp (1907) explored the lives of New Yorkers; the city itself O. Henry liked to call ‗Bagdad-on the Subway‘. In The Last Leaf, a sentimental piece about two women artists and their failed artist friend, the theme is selfishness, as in The Gift of the Magi, but there is also a lesbian undercurrent which separates it from O. Henry's run-of-the-mill works. One Dollar's Worth criticized the merciless judicial system. Judge Derwent receives a letter from an ex- convict in which the writer, 'Rattlesnake',

REGULATION IN THE LIVESTOCK TRADE: THE ORIGINS AND OPERATIONS OF THE KANSAS CITY LIVESTOCK EXCHANGE 1886-1921 Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College ii 1286885 C Y R0 I GP H T by o. James Hazlett May, 1987 PREFACE This dissertation is a business history of the Kansas City Live Stock Exchange, and a study of regulation in the American West. Historians generally understand the economic growth of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, and the business institutions created during that era, within the perspective of "progressive" history. According to that view, Americans shifted from a public policy of laissez faire economics to one of state regulation around the turn of the century. More recently, historians have questioned the nature of regulation in American society, and this study extends that discussion into the livestock industry of the American West. 1 This dissertation relied heavily upon the minutes of the Kansas City Live Stock Exchange. Other sources were also important, especially the minutes of the Chicago Live Stock Exchange, which made possible a comparison of the two exchanges. Critical to understanding the role of the Exchange but unavailable in Kansas City, financial data was 1Morton Keller, "The Pluralist State: American Economic Regulation in Comparative Perspective, 1900-1930," in Thomas K.

Like so many well-entrenched, traditional as- sumptions, this one is unwarranted. J. Evetts Haley, in editing one of the extremely rare accounts of the cattle drives to Califor- nia which preceded the Texas-to-Kansas experiment by a decade and a half, slapped the blame for this misunderstanding squarely on the writings of Emerson Hough.

  • The 239 Year Timeline of America's Involvement in Military Conflict
    The 239 Year Timeline Of America’s Involvement in Military Conflict By Isaac Davis Region: USA Global Research, December 20, 2015 Theme: History, US NATO War Agenda Activist Post 18 December 2015 I should welcome almost any war, for I think this country needs one. – President Theodore Roosevelt The American public and the world have long since been warned of the dangers of allowing the military industrial complex to become such an integral part of our economic survival. The United States is the self-proclaimed angel of democracy in the world, but just as George Orwell warned, war is the health of the state, and in the language of newspeak, democracy is the term we use to hide the reality of the nature of our warfare state. In truth, the United States of America has been engaged in some kind of war during 218 out of the nation’s total 239 years of existence. Put another way, in the entire span of US history, this country has only experienced 21 years without conflict. For a sense of perspective on this sobering statistic, consider these4 facts about the history of US involvement in military conflict: Pick any year since 1776 and there is about a 91% chance that America was involved in some war during that calendar year. No U.S. president truly qualifies as a peacetime president. Instead, all U.S. presidents can technically be considered “war presidents.” The U.S. has never gone a decade without war. The only time the U.S. went five years without war (1935-40) was during the isolationist period of the Great Depression.

The fifteenth edition of our workshop is being organized online on June 11, 2021, in conjunction with the 2021 Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (NAACL-2021). The workshops in the TextGraphs series have published and promoted the synergy between the field of Graph Theory (GT) and Natural Language Processing (NLP). The mix between the two started small, with graph theoretical frameworks providing efficient and elegant solutions for NLP applications. Graph- based solutions initially focused on single-document part-of-speech tagging, word sense disambiguation, and semantic role labeling, and became progressively larger to include ontology learning and information extraction from large text collections. Nowadays, graph-based solutions also target on Web-scale applications such as information propagation in social networks, rumor proliferation, e-reputation, multiple entity detection, language dynamics learning, and future events prediction, to name a few. The target audience comprises researchers working on problems related to either Graph Theory or graph- based algorithms applied to Natural Language Processing, Social Media, and the Semantic Web. This year, we received 22 submissions and accepted 17 of them for oral presentation (12 long papers and 5 short papers).

  • Archeological Assessment of the Buffalo National River
    ARCHE0L0G1CAL ASSESSMENT of the BUFFALO NATIONAL RIVER by Daniel Wolfman Arkansas Archeological Survey Research Report No. 18 ARCHEOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE BUFFALO NATIONAL RIVER by Daniel WoIfman Arkansas Archeological Survey Research Report No. 18 MAY 1979 Report submitted to the National Park Service, Southwest Region by the Arkansas Archeological Survey under Contract No. CX 700030218 July, 1974 ABSTRACT The establishment of the Buffalo National River along one of the few remaining large, free-flowing streams in the state of Arkansas necessitates a comprehensive study of the archeology of the park area. This study, funded by the National Park Service, is the first step in the long process of preserving the park's archeological heritage, a significant portion of which is being lost due to surface collecting and digging by "treasure hunters" at the archeological sites. This report includes a review of published references relevant to the archeology of the Buffalo National River and a summary of reports prepared by amateur and professional archeologists on the 254 known sites within the boundaries of the Buffalo National River on file with the Arkansas Archeological Survey. Past archeological research is synthesized and recommendations are made including some ideas about how future archeological investigations may be approached to provide meaningful interpretations. i TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface and Acknowledgements 1 PART I.
