A New Irish Tenor. AssocuTED with Mildred Weller- son, the child prodigy cellist, in a forthcoming concert will be Patrick Kelly, & new Irish tenor, of whom great things are expected. Mr. Kelly’s story is interesting. He was a worker in the great shipyards in Seattle only a year ago. When the operatic Impresario, Fortune Gallo, visited that city with the San Carlo Grand Opera Company a friend of Kelly's, who was confldent of the boy's future as a singer, induced Mr. Gallo to hear him sing. An appoint- ment was arranged and Mr. Gallo, after hearing Kelly sing an operatic aria, pronounced his vo.ce to be one of the finest he had heard in this country. He promised the young singer to interest himself in his career later. s Kelly was anxlous to start in the new career which he saw ahead of him, and after thinking the matter over. he decided to embark for New York to hold Mr. Gallo to his promise. Accordingly, without sufficient funds to bring him de luxe, he came east In a box car. That was last spring. Mr. Gallo was %o pleased by the young singer’s determination that he .mmediately placed him in the hands of a vocal coach and today Kelly is filling concert engagements and win- ning high plaudits.

P et e R AMERICA’S MARITIME PROGRESS. By George Weiss. New York: The New York Marine News Com- pany. the public by the Marine News for the purpose of producing an available and authentic account of an Important and promising na- tional enterprise. Primarily, the work concerns itself with the phenomenal activity that the great war set up in shipping interests. This activity is described in good detail. Much of it centered in the personal initiative and efficiency of certain citizens. These prominent and active promoters of shipping interests are presented hero in short biographic sketches to em- phasize the part taken by them and; to recognize their service. The book goes back to sketch the early mer- chant marine of the United States. This sketch sums the ses of its prosperity and usefulnes the causes of its decline to the zero mark . The main purpose of the pub- lication {s, however, to encourage and stimulate the current intereat in reviving a national industry out of the splendid beginnings that ‘the war produced in this country. THE HISTORY OF THE A. E. F. By Shipley Thomas. Illustrated. New York: George H. Doran Company. This story of the A. E. F., from Pershingw arrival in France to the armistice, will, one judges, make its first appeal to the American soldier rving overseas. By way of its clear ecision and completeness the for- zn-service man is able to connect his own unit, and himself, up with the entire body of the American Army in France. Hvery battle in which the American soldier fought is made a matter of record here. A distinctive HIS impressive and beautifully illustrated volume is offered to and most helpful feature of this part|jpgihe of the history is the abundance of maps that define positions and move- ments in an impressively objective manner. The general reader and the historian himself will alo find sub- stantial value in this well-ordered and exceptionally clear account of the thirty combat divisions and the thir- teen depot and replacement divisions of the A. E. F. Capt. Thomas appears to have had unusual opportunities for the pursuit of this work—access to official information, a wide circuit of personal activity and observation, the support of substantial assistance from many dependable sources. The wri ing itself is lean and strong. A boo to win its own way without artificial support of any sort. And Prayer artres. By Houghton, Henry Adams. Mifflin Company. This book of Adams letters opens with a_chapter of memories by Henry Adams’ nlece, to whom the letters themselves were written. Following the letters is the “Prayer” to the Vir- gin of Chartres. It is, however, the lotters themselves that give the book its chief attraction, since these pro- vide one more glimpse into the life and attitude of one of the strangest and most fascinating personalities in American life. These letters are writ ten from the islands of the Pacific— from Honolulu, Samoa, Papeete, Fijl, and, later from different places.in Europe and. finally, from the H street house in Washington. A spread-out field of observation, this and. in spots a relatively fresh fleld. To it Mr, Adams applies his sophisticated and somewhat world-weary mind. He is an onlooker in the South seas—never a spontaneous lover of the life there or anywhere. The flavor of these letters is the flavor of his “education,” which distils through his recurring phrase: “Still, nothing matters much.” De- spite this settied indifference of out- 100k, there is not so arresting a writer nor a more exciting one than. this man of no illusions, yet of so complete an intellectual achievement. IN THE DAYS OF THE COMET. By H. G. Wells, author of “Tono- Bungay,” ete. New York: George H. Doran Company. This is one_ of Mr. Wells' earlier novels. In it he has not yet reached the place where all reformers sooner or later find themselves—a place of makeshift and compromise, of secur- ing his bit of good here and there and over yonder as reluctant oppor- tunity permits. Rather, is he in the place and at the stage where he would make the world over In a minute. And this is exactly what he does. A comet of ominous portent appears in the heavens. This va- grant of the skies Mr. Wells nurses along to use as a searchlight for the exposure of the world's wickedness— a wickedness that bears the features of the present social conditions. When the comet is ripe, 80 to speak, its fruitage is a flood of green gas that envelopes the world. In this blanket of green vapors the peoples of the carth are purged of their most bale- ul besetments. Then the new day dawns—a day in which the righteous- ness of God and the C keness of man take possession of all creation. A fanciful invention that projects a new golden age, the rediscovery of a world that has become lost in the tusts and enmities of mankind. THE LIGHT HEART. By Maurice Hewlett, author of “Gudrid the Fair,” etc. New York: Henry Holt Out of an old Icelandic tale, Maurice Hewlett rescucs Thormod of the high heart, of the light heart, and sets him before one, fair and strong, & naked figure of sirength and simplicity. The story here, 8o straight and clean in line and definition, is the story of a man's love for a man. Such is it as the story of David and Jonathan, of Damon and Pythias, of Amis and Amile. There i5 a line of iove event hetween Thormod and a woman, this woman. that woman, but the essence of his love Is not of that sort. As the \uthor says, “Thormod was no hand with women. They were his pastime. He gave his fancy to them for a while, reserving his_heart for men.” The character of Thormod |s the heart of the tale, and sworn brotherhood is its content. The story moves along in + striding advance of action, taking nto no account at all matters of set- ting and atmosphere. Such a tale of herolc adventuring and doing as might, in those long-gone days, have been Dassed by word of mouth from generation to generation, with the deed itself paramount, with the char- acter of the hero uppermost, and with no intent to adorn sheer strength with futile trappings. This is the spirit of Mr. Hewlett's revival of an- sther Icelandic strong man, in the lerson of Thormod of the light heart. THE PRODIGAL VILLAGE. By.Irving Bacheller. author of “A Man for the Ages,” etc. Indianapolis: The Bobbs-Merrill Company. ‘This is the story of a whole village that turned prodigal through pursuit of the muititudinous gods of modern swc- cess. Here the return of the prodigal comes about by degrees largely thro; the life of a little boy who, erippled, leads a joyous existence in his panionship with all the live things ¢ hand—folks, birds, dogs, strays of every sort—and through his unconquerable cheerfulness, a (Mml no circum- stance can shake. is llllill‘oh) Dickens in this Christmas story of love and courage and straight thinking, even though the example nothing more than a happy crippled child. A ly little story of Christmas good will and general friendliness. THE VANISHING MEN. By Richard Washburn Child, author of “The Velvet Black,” etc. New York: E. P. Dutton & Co. Though they are both Americans, you will first meet the man and woman of this remance in England. A pleasant social to-do upon an Eng- lish estate serves to bring about an acquaintance between the two and to foreshadow the mystery that enm- velops the lady In the case. The young man breaks into a sudden flame of love. And this passion brings out the fact that the lady's effect upon her men folks is, aston- ishingly. that of evaporation. They fade away, disappear, under her fa- vors. To a lusty American youth, however, this is but fuel to the blase set up so consumingly in his heart, ‘The story then shitts to America, I’ & quest for the evanished males o the heroine’s earller assoeiations. This quest finally settles to the e Mt AR A s B b T e ol Wt oAt bl 2ot b L i, BN B LU S D Joo o bbb Loioitilontoticdl Iictioodo LB it Mo BB A S 20 southwest among the relics of old civilisations. A~ desert trail work right there—a buried cavelike ruin of ancient cities, treasure, and, finally, an altogether consistent and plausible explanation of the disap- pearances that had, to the excited mind of the girl, spirited away the two men who had come near to her earlier years. Then the story bringe up at the universal stopping_place of the average love episode. You will enjoy the settings here—first that English one, and then the sinister effects of the southwest landscape. You will like the American youth, barring an overshade of credulity. The girl is not so convincing—yet an overwrought, excitable, self-centered girl might—just possibly might—get these notions and hold to them. Ome can’t tell really what a human being of this persuasion may or may not do. THE MORETON MYSTERY. By Eliz- abeth Dejeans, author of “The Ti- ger's Coat,” etc. lllustrated by W. H. D. Koerner. Indianapolis: The Bobbs-Merrill Company. ] A rich man, an adopted daughter, a jealous wife, a shrewd lawyer— these are the characters that source the action of this author's new mys- tery tale, The rich man is murdered in his own house under circumstances of utter bewilderment. A curious will stands as the probable motive back of the crime. This narrows the suspects to the rich man's confidants and intimates. From this beginning the story, under uncommonly adroit management, veers hither and yon in pursuit of many an elusive and vagrant trail. And this adroit handling is what makes the mystery story, since the foundation offers but little in variety of fact. To be sure, the real criminal is miles away from the many who are brought under ac- tive suspiclon, and this culminating reservation is released only when the author has, with good skill, followed out and exploded half a dozen other theories bearing upon the mystery of w Moreton's death. THE WITNESS OF THE SUN. By Henry Smith Williams. Frontis- plece by C. Lotave. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co. The murder committed, almost at once, the rest of this story is engaged in seeing how many innocent men may become suspect under eircum- stances the most damaging. So well does this author succeed that two men in prison are walting what looks like the real thing in extreme pun- ishment, when a bright office boy in the pursult of amateur photography opens up the case anew, acquits the accused and fastens the crime upon the man and a method that have, at least, the value of novelty for lovers of ingenious tales of uhcovering crime. Now and then the plot runs thin here, but, in the main, it shows the substance of good invention. byl subjects, includes some of the latest additions to the Public Library.

It did—to whales. New it has reached its eli- max. Before the door of his East Side ahop—the present lo- ontion of the business handed down from gemeration to gen- eration and tramwported to America—Joneph displayed for | the New Year purchasers 1,000 | pounds | of whale meat—ntenks, chops, cutlets “'n everything.” VOODOOISM IN HAITI INVIOLENT FORM: Cult of Superstition May Have Originated in Snake Worship. “As no accurate history of Haiti can be written without a reference to vao- doolem, the story of this strange cult which some authoritiese say still is in practice in its most violent form among the people of this island and others of the West Indies, may be interesting in | Cdonnection with the recent investiga- tion of American occupation in Haitd,” says a bulletin from headquarters of the National Geographic Soclety in this cit; 0odooism could scarcely be called a religion, but so strong is its influence upon the superstitions of the negroes that, despite efforts to eradicate it, ev- ery year or two dispatches report that there has been a sudden outbreak of cannibalistic practices in connection with a revival of devotional enthusiasm. “It is said that no white man would be allowed to live long after he had given testimony leading to the con- viction of a culprit charged with sac- rificing a child to his god. As a conse- quence, authentic information is diffi- cult to get, and proof of a human sac- rifice almost impossible. Many teachers and inhabitants of the islands deny the existence of the cult, though many storles of the horrors perpetrated at a meeting of the voodoos are recorded by naval officers who have visited the islands and by other men of integrity. Posnible Origin. “The general bellef is that voodooism was brought to the western hemisphere from West Africa by the negroes im- ported as laborers, especially to Haiti, and it may probably be traced back to the serpent worship of Egypt. Many of the characteristics of the worship also were attributed to the French witches of the fifteenth century, the most vio- lent phases of the practice, perhaps, being an outgrowth of the African superstitions of the black and of the French imagination® of the white in- habitants of Haiti. “The god Obeah or Vaudoux, of which voodoo is an American corrup- tion, is supposed to know, to see and to do all things, but he manifésts himself to his worshipers only in the form of a non-poisonous snake and communicates with them only through a priest and priestess, known as papa-loi nad maman-loi, who are held in great veneration by their followers. “The <ceremony is always held at night, usually in the fastness of some Aaep wood, where there witl be no interruption of the rites. The devo- tees take off their shoes and bind about thelr bodies hankderchiefs, the predominating note of which is red. and the priest and priestess wear red bands about their heads in the form of crowns. Then they pray to the snake, which is exhibited for the pur- pose of zrousing their emotions. Ma- man-lol mounts the box in which the god is usually kept, and emits groans, shrieks and wild gesticulations as she uters her prophetic sontences. Primitive “Jazs.” “A dance closes the ceremony. The king puts his hand on the box and a shudder somewhat similar to the effect produced by the most recent kind of ‘jazz’ seizes him, and from him it passes to all the rest. Then the devotional exercises evolve into a delirious madness of wild debauch- ery and indecency under the cover of drunkenness and night. ““The initiation of a convert to the faith is enough to inspire him with terror. He pledges himself, when his lips are touched with warm goat's blood, never under any circumstances to reveal ‘he secrets of the fraternity and to kill any member who proves a traltor to the brotherhood. This is the point at which the cannibalism is supposed to occur, but investigation has shown that many of the shocking phases of the worship have been elim- nated, and the worshipers usually sat-, isty themselves with a cock or a goa which is afterward cooked and eaten. “The voodoo women are thought to possess supernatural power! and by working on the superstitivns of the natives attain a potent infiuence over them. Many strong men have pined away merely because they thought an enemy had ‘put Obeah’ on them, just as the southern negro believed in the ‘conjure’ doctor who cast a ‘spell’ on him by leaving in his path a bottle containing horse hairs snake's teeth, lizard claws, a piece of dried rat and a frog’s foot. Objects which have been used in the practice of the black art may be seen in the museum of the Petit Seminaire at Port au Prince. “So deeply have the people of Haiti bécome imbued with the cult that an empty bottle, which probably would enticé a reminiscent grifi from an American assembly, will throw a Hal- tian group into consternation, and educated Haitian girls have been known to faint at the sight of the ancanny shivers of spilled mercury.” JUGOSLAVS START FIGHT ON ALL RED ACTIVITIES Fear Nation May Lose Liberties ‘Won at @reat Sacrifice Dur- ing the War.
