It was really a descrip- tion of that drive down the lane behind Peerless, and it was such a beautiful piece of writing that I cut it out and preserved it. Once in a while I hunt it up and read it over, and when I do I see a mental pic- ture in. which Peeri2ss and Bonner and Beecher are the central figures.” To Stop a Runaway Team. Mr. Fuller has been driving over the toads of Manhattan Island for more than forty-five years, and computes that in that time h3 has driven 475,000 miles. In the forty-five years he has suffered six runa- ways, not counting such incidents as his collision with Commodore Vanderbilt. The best way to stop a runaway team, Mr. Fuller says, is to throw the horses. “I learned that trick," he explained, “wh2n a boy. I was champion wrestler n the county of Franklin, Verment, where [ heil from. Collar and elbow was my fa- verite hold, and constant practice at that made me strong in my arms and shoulders. You know how a man is thrown in collar- ind-elbow wrestling. All you have to dc s to pull. pretty steady for a while to the right, and then give a sudden jerk as hard 1s you can to the left. If you know how ta io it you can down your man nine times n ten without tripping him. “I never thought of trying collar-and- sIbow tactics on a runaway team till one lay I got in a pretty tight place with a vair of horses that took the bit In their eeth, not many blocks away from where I had beaten the commodore. At first I hought I could hold them, but I couldn't, ind I began to wonder what I should do. Phen I remembered how easy it used to be o yank a husky chap off his feet at collar- nd-elbow. There was no reason why the scheme wouldn't work with horses as well = men, so I pulled them steadily to the ight, though gently at first. I wanted to lown them where there was a soft place o light, and presently, when I neared such i spot, I let go of the off rein, grasped the nigh one with both hands, and brought the uorses’ heads around with a sharp jerk. if the rein had broken I'd have been a soner, sure, but it stood the strain all ‘ight. Just as I had expected, down went he team in a heap, the off horse on top. Was I hurt? Well, I went flying about wenty feet and I lit on my shoulders, but 1 struck the soft spot I'a been looking for, d was only shaken up a mite. “After that I knew how best to stop a unaway team. It makes a horse feel sheepish to be thrown, and he is sure to show it in his looks, too. «nd the best of t is that once thrown he will never try to run away again.” IN soe A SAND STORM. \ Graphic Diseription of a in the Desert. From the London Standard. Our camp consists of nine tents, scatterea imong dry and stunted acacias, on which he camels feed with evident relish, writes -ur war correspondent from the scene of the sritish operations on the Nile. Beating jown upon this arid plain is the fierce sun, which gives a temperature of 120 degrees n the shade. The heat and glare are intol- rable. At midday one les sweltering and sping under a coating of sweat and sand, yes, ears and nose are choked with dust, while flies, gnats and ants seek out the enderest parts. There is no escape from hese condition At first one sighs for a breath of wind to ool the burning air. When it comes the effect is disastrous. A blinding, suffocating loud of dust springs from the earth, sweeps over the camp and searches out every noak and cranny in hut and tent. Jt penetrates the most secret recesses of trunks and box. 3, mingles with food and drink, and makes cky compound of sweat and mud under which the skin smaris and stings. Evening ind morning are numbered among the de- lights of the desert. Under normal condi- ions they are pleasant enough, but, unhap- pily, they are too often attended in the: parts with violent storms of wind and sand devils. These “devils” are whirlwinds of dust that gather volume and force as they sweep along cutting fresh particles from the matrix of sandstone rock and driving heir myriads of atoms to swell the dust of the desert. During the last few days we have had Several opportunities of observing this process of nature. Last night. my blankets were spread under the veranda of the tent. It was a beautiful night. The air was calm, the sky was clear and the moon cast dark shadows of palm and mimosa on the white plain. Under these softening in- fluences of light and sound the desert lost its terrors, and one looked dreamily on the picture until a solenm silence fell upon the camp and sleep sealed the eyelids. A moment later and the scene was changed. A breath of bot wind, as from a furnace, brought ‘empest every tented sleeper to his feet with a gasp. Instantly the camp was alive with sound and motion. The rush of the siorm min- gled with the neighing of horses, the groan- ing of camels, the bleating of goats and the flapping of canvas. The moon was hid- den behind a cloud of sand. Sand filled the air—a whirling, rushing hail of atoms. As it swirled around and above the tents, straining rope dashing against canvas, iearing tent pegs out of the ground, one be- wan to realize how fragile was the roof overhead and to be even thankful that it was not more substantial. The sand devil aged for naif an hour without damage, sav @s, which flew about rather dange Every moment I expected the to collapse and go scudding before the storm. But it held fz ring my head with a bia ay down, smothered in dust, while the gle between canvas and sand went on, with growing fierceness. The servants, who lay on the sand, slept undisturbed until aroused by their masters. Then active operation began, nd the sharp click of mallets falling on’ tent pegs was heard through the storm. The tent next to mine was the first to go. _ It fell, or rather glided, to the ground, and presently there merged from the wreckage three figures. ‘inding the po: m untenable, | made a virtue of necessity and struck my tent be- fore further damage could be done. Hav- ing made fast the canvas over my baggage and furniture, I drew my bed into the open, and, wrapping myself in a blanket, lay swel- tering and choking until the storm abated At dawn we were able to remove the traces of this experience. The tents were soon pitched, furniture, clothes and boxes were dug out of t nd, and presently Abdul Hassan, Mahomed and the other servants » “making kitchen" and lighting fires er cover of some dead bushes. +e.

At this season, when so many are seek- ing situations, and, on the other hand, so many seeking employes, it is of interest to know that advertisements under the classifications Wanted Help and Wanted Situations are inserted in The Star at a charge of 15 cents tor fifteen words. —_—— A Common Complaint.

Wot’s de use of dem dudes paddin’ deir legs like dat wen dey never even tries to soak each otheg a lick?” count of his career bearing the imprint of authorization. Of course, many biograph- teal sketches have been printed, some rem- iniscences have appeared, and thus a con- siderable collection of matter concerning the great English convert to the Catholic faith has been accumulated. It has re- mained until now, however, for a biogra- pher to put ferth his work with the com- pleteness demanded by the subject. Cardi- nal Manning seems virtually to have chosen the present author to narrate the story of his life and to present his correspondence. For five years they were in constant com- munication, and thus the biographer learn- ed much that is denied to the average writer of memoirs of famous personages. The cardinal in a measure directed the method ‘of handling some of this material, pra s the reproduction of his personal ary. These circumstances contribute to en- hance the value of so important an adai- tion to biographical literature. Cardinal Manning's life was replete with the most deeply interesting and important inc: dents. His conversion from the Church of England to the Church of Rome was a no- table event in religious affairs. Around that episode are clustered many historical facts of first consequence. Hence the biog- raphy of such @ personage, leading in re- iigious thought as he did during a large part of his life, is in a sense a history of the church movements of England during the major portion of the nineteenth cen- tury. These two volumes bear evidences of careful preparation. They have been di vided as to their contents with refer- nee to the two differing phases of Man- ning’s religious career, volume I telling of Manning as an Anglican and volume {L of his work as a Catholic. Thus the great career was divided in life, anc the literary separation necessitated by th: sublisher’s exigencies is aptly utilized t typify the great change which came int: this smgularly influential life. Manning's association with Gladstone left many me- mentos which have been utilized by the biographer, though he notes in his preface the irritation of Mr. Gladstone on learn ng that Cardinal Manning had suppressed for biographical purposes, much of the cor- respondence between them. Nevertheless Mr. Gladstone's recollections have been largely utilized and form an attractive fea- ture of the work. CARPENTER’ GEOGRAPHICAL — READER— RTM AMERICA.” By Frank’ G. Carpenter w York: Americun Book Comp ny. Mr. Carpenter has for many years been favorably known to the readers of news papers as one of the most energetic of writ- crs and correspondents. He has traveled n all parts of the world and has accumu lated a wonderfully large store of informa- tion. It is well that he has now utilized i ‘n this manner, giving the younger genera. ion an opportunity to appreciate the facts of geography as disclosed by travel and in vestigation. Such a text book becomes im neasurably superior in interest to th. staditional volume of miscellaneous fact: oupled with many maps which th oungsters are compelled to draw wit! saborious accuracy. Mr. Carpenter con- tives to associate with the geographica essons which he imparts much informatiot oncerning the resources of the country de- cribed, its industries and its people. Th« facts of physical formation are assimilated n passing perhaps much more lastingly han though they were presented to th: youthful reader on their own basis, with- vut the charm of descriptive story accom- nying. The child is taken upon a tour. which, owing to Mr. Carpenter's plain, di rect style of writing, is made to seem as real as a veritable journey. GREAT BOOKS. By the Very Rey. Fredertek W. Farrar, D.D., Dean ot Canterbury. New York: Thomas Y. Crowell & Company. Dean Farrar {s sufficiently familiar with the literature of all ages to write command- ingly on this topic. He writes for the pur- pose of setting forth certain rules of guid- ance for those who seck to utilize the world’s best books for the best advantage to their natures. He therefore warns igainst indiscriminate reading as well as thoughtless reading. He proscribes the books without a purpose and the books written “from the standpoint of a stereo- typed bigotry and an arrant incompetence.” To read any books without a conscience and an aim, he declares, is an imexcusable man. slaughter upon time. With this advice and much more to the same wholesome effect he proceeds to speak analytically of such “great books” as those of Bunyan, Milton, Shakespeare and Dante. He closes with a reverent tribute to the lasting power of “The Imitation of Christ," which, as he says, “Is usually attributed to St. Thomas a is," to awaken the hearts and souls of mankind and bring them near the per- fect life. THE HEART OF TOIL, lu ed by A. B. Serituer’s, By Octave Thanet. Il- Frost. New York: Charles Washington: Brentano's. This volume contains six stories relating to the laboring classes, which have already appeared in the magazines. They are ‘The Non-Combatant,” “The Way of an Elec- tion,” “The Mound of Clear Vision,” “John- ny’s Job,” “The ‘Scab’ and “The Con- rience of a Business Man.” These stories are unusually redolent of the atmosphere of the workshop, the mill, the forge and the other scenes of toil. They show a familiar- ity with the “problem” of the relations be- tween capital and labor and present many strongly drawn characters. CHINA AND POTTERY MARKS. Gilman, Collamore & Co. Collectors of chinaware and pottery are usuilly familar with the distinguishing marks which the makers of noted ware have placed upon their products, but there are many who would like to acquaint them- selves thus, perhaps to enlarge their con- fidence in purchasing. The Ittle book just issued is intended to meet the needs of all who handle this sort of material, giving not only the design of the scores of individual marks now and formerly in use, but adding descriptive information of real value. THE BOOK OF THE OCEAN. By Ernest In soll, author of “Knocking Round the Rockles The Oyster Industries of the United Statos,’* ‘Friends Worth Knowing,” “Wild Neighbors, “The Crost of the Continent,” etc. Hlusirated. New Yora: The Century Company. Mr. Ingersoll, in this interesting volume, covers practically every phase of ocean life, from the natural history of the great seas to tho naval warfare which, from the time when history began to the stirring present, has been waged upon the bosom of tha waters. Whether telling of icebergs or pirates, he is entertaining. His chapter, “Secrets Won from the Frozen North,” is especially fine, summarizing in vivid style the exploits of the intrepid >xplorers who hava risked their lives in the search for knowledge in the high latitudes, DOWN DURLEY LANE; and Other Ballads. By Virginia Wocdward Cleud. Wlustrated by Rex- inald B. Birch. New York: ‘The Century Com- pany. Miss Cloud’s verse and Mr Birch’s draw- ings form a happy combination illustrative of a series of adventures and misadven- tures on the part of ths quaint and inter- esting folk of ‘“Durley Lane,” a place which must have been somewhere near the haunts of John Gilpin and others of that ilk. The ballads are tuneful and humorous, and the figures prsented by Mr. Birch are both pretty and comical. The book is there- fore an entire success, CARTOONS OF THE WAR OF 1898 WITH SPAIN; from Leading Forelgn and Amertean Papers. Chicago: Belferd, Middlebrook & Company. One of the most distinct impressions and lessons of the recent struggle between Spain and the United Statas is that the newspaper Cartoons were a potent influence in molding public opinion and in expressing the trend of sentiment. They were at once a mirror and a creator. Th3 volume just presented, therefore, is of a distinct value for preserving a collection of some of the most expressive of these pictorial editorials tracing the courss of the war spirit from its inception to the collapse of the Spanish cause. It is the more valuable because it includes many of the most characteristic cartoons published abroad, especially in Spain, during the war. Thus an interesting and instructive contrast between the two methods of trea! the subject with the ns, New York: is accentuated by Mr. Burns’ fine drawing. SGNGS OF WAL AND PEACE. By Sam Walter Foss, author of “Buck Country Poems,” “Whiffs From Wil@ Meadows,” “Dreams in Home-Spur,” etc. Bost@m: Lee & Shepard. Washington: Williays Bajiantyne & Sons. Mr. Foss has steadily spread his fame be- yond the bounds of *his New England cir- cle until he has come to be known as a typical latter-day American. poet. His verso grows strong2r and broader continually, and now he has struck the chords that are today pulsating most strongly in the na- tion’s heart. His poem, “War,” leading this volume, is exceptionally vibrant with the spirit of the new time. BUCCANEERS AND PIRATES OF OER COASTS. By Frank R. Stockton, author of “Rudder Grange.” etc, With illustrations by George Varian and B. West Clinedinst. New York: ‘The Macmillan Compan: Mr. Stockton tells here one of the most romantic stories connected with American history. He does so as an historian, not as @ romancer. The result is a valuable ac- count of these great tragedies of the sea in the smooth, carefully chosen diction of one who has mastered the language. Few col- lections of stories about pirates have ever appeared with the completeness and value of this. It covers all phases of tne buc- caneering =nterprise, and imparts a glow of interest to the subject which a mere as- semblage of the records might not afford. FEATHERED PETS; a Treatise on Breeding and Care of Canaries, Parrots and Other Cage Tirds. “By Charles N. Page. Des Moines, Iowa: Published by the author. Few households today lack a bird cage. The family feathered pet is highly -steem- ed, often loved, and dilig2ntly cared for, But much of the attending is done by guess cr chance, and often the little songsters suffer and die b2cause some simple rule has been overlooked. This small but useful book dis- cusses birds from the practical standpoint of experience and advances many useful hints which will add greatly to the enjoy- ment of bird pets.

At Gleiwitz, in upper Silesia, a youngster's kite got caught on the electric wire of a fire alarm. A policeman noticed the accl- dent, and in order to get the kite removed made a written report, which, after having been perused by the “Polizeikommissar,” was forwarded in succession to the “Polizei- inspektor,” the magistrate and the “Fuer- ioschgeratkommission,”” The last named au- thority engaged an engineer to remove the offending kite and recommended the magis- irate to reward the zealous policeman with a premium of 25 pfemigs. The engineer handed in a written report to the effect that the kite had been removed. The mu- nicipal treasury paid the policeman the sum of 25 pfennigs and received in return a duly signed acknowledgment. The master of the School which the unlucky kite flyer attended (fourteen days had been spent in tracing hirn) received instructions to se- verely warn his pupils against flying their kites against electric wires, and after com- plying with the instrictions reported ac- cordingly. But the “Feuerioschgeratkommission” de- termined that the matter should not rest there. They sent a deputation to the local school board to ask that all school inspect- ors in the district should be instructed to see that all the children in the local schools received a similar warning. The head mas- ters of all the schools were accordingly supplied with written instructions as to the way in which the necessary warning should be conveyed. Cireulats were distributed among the juvenile population. The head school inspector wak ‘informed of the steps that had been taken. 7 He informed the school board and the:sehool board the burg- ermeister. Finally the written documents relating to the affair:were collected, and, after being furnished: (with a formidable register number, were daéd to rest in an of- ficial pigeonhole. Four months passed from the loss of the kite«to the final subsidence of documents and reports concerning it. —— +0 Fragg! Girl.
