CLEMENS (MARK TWAIN) paid. After the failure Mr. Clemens made a lecturing tour of the world for the purpose of paying the firm's indebted- ness, which he insisted on doing in full, though the creditors oflFered to settle for half of the amount. His works include: "The Jumping Frog," "The Innocents Abroad," "Roughing It," "A Tramp Abroad," "The Prince and the Pauper," "Life on the Mississippi," "The Gilded Age" (with Charles Dudley Warner) , "Old Ti*mes on the Mississippi," "Tom Saw- yer," "Huckleberry Finn," "A Connecti- cut Yankee at King Arthur's Court," "Pudd'nhead Wilson," "Personal Recol- lections of Joan of Arc," "Following the Equator," etc. He died April 21, 1910. CLEMENS. TITUS FLAVIUS, known as Clement of Alexandria, one of the fathers of the Church; born about the middle of the 2d century. Of his early career so little is known that it is doubt- ful whether he was born at Alexandria or at Athens; but about the year 189 he succeeded Pantaenus in the catecheti- cal school of the former city and taught there until 202, when the edict of Seve- rus compelled him to seek a new abode.

He was, according to Catholic tradition, baptized by St. Peter, and or- dained Bishop of Rome in 91, succeed- ing to Anacletus. Among the writings which are attributed to him are one epistle exhorting to unity (generally ad- mitted as genuine) ; two other epistles preserved by the Syriac Church ; the two collections of apostolical canons and con- stitutions ; and the "Clementines," a nar- rative of his life, and of his connection and journeys with St. Peter.
