NEW BOOKS AND MAGAZINES Long List of Useful Volumes from the Philadelphia Publishers, LLOYD MIFFLIN'S NEW VOLUME OF VERSE | Other Books, Many of Them of a Re- Usmious Character—Ma, of the Month Contain Many Come mendable Features. The Penn Publishing company at Phila- dolphia has brought out quite an exten- sive line of books, the majority of them intended for young people and very much on the same order as their series of a year 8go, which was roviewed in theso columns in detall at the time. Among the books coming under this head might be men- tioned, “The Young Financler,” a story of e and exciting experience centor of New York. “Tho Boer Boy of the Tranevaal,” from the German of August Niomann, detalls the exciting career of a boy in South Africa while serving his coun- try. “Exiled to Siberfa,” by Willlam Mur- ray Graydon, is a dramatic recital of Wfe in the mines and military prisons of frozen Siberta. “A Mald at King Alfred's Court,” by Lucy Foster Madison, {3 a story for girls and is o strong and well told tale of the ninth century, reple with historical information and giving a faithful portrayal of the times “Earning Her Way to Col- lege” is another story for girls, detailing the many obstacles overcome by an ambi- tlous girl working for a collegiate educa- in the money tion. “The Story of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table' details the principal events of the king's reign set forth in a way that cannot fail to interest elthor boys or girld, for whom the book is written. All the above hooks belong to one series, being similar in style. Then comes a series of three books, also calcu- lated for young people. “His Lordship’s Pupp; by Theodora € mslle 1s a hand- somely illustrated volume about a little boy and his dog: “The Walcott Twins" Is a second volume gotten up in the same style and fs the story of several very in- teresting children. The Hlustrations in both volumes, which are very good, are by Ida Waugh. The third volume in tb serles 1s “Bockers and His Chum Peggy,” by Margaret Compton. Like the two pre- ceding, it is a story of children and s handsomely illustrated by John F. Beets. In such an extensive series of juveniles it would seem as If most anyone, even the most particular, could make a pleasing selection. In addition to this list there are a number of volumea for people of more mature tastes which are worthy of attention. A little volume eniitled “Plu- tarch’s Lives" contains brief and accurate accounts of the lives of famous Grecks and Romans and belongs to the serles known as “Popular Handbooks,” which are issued at 60 cents. Aunother volume is a “Classical Dictionary,” containing the proper names mentfoned in classical litera- ture. “Golt” is the title of a little volume glving a history of tho game, together with selections of Implements and talning the rules of the game as well as a glossary of golf terms. A book that will interest many is entitled “Conundrums, Riddles and Puzzies,” containing a thou- sand specimens gathered from every con- colvable source, in addition to many that are strictly new and original. “Things ‘Worth Knowing" is a treasury of useful in- formation answering thousands of questions that are constantly arising. That com- pletes the list of the “Popular Handbook™ sorios received this scason. Then come a lttle volume entitled, “Ideal Drills,” which 18 o collection of entirely new and original drilis, marches and motion songs. “Boxing” 18 a short, practical treatise on the art of self-defense, and “Card Tricks"” is a treatise on conjuring vith cards. Mr. Lloyd Miffiin has now come to be rocognized as one of the foremost of Amer- n poets in the use of the sonpet form and to possess beside a remarkable lyrical sense in the interpretation of pastoral lito. In his latest collection of verse, which has been brought out under the title of “The Klelds of Dawn and Later Sonnets,” Mr. Miffiin has rendered into metre and rhyme the recollections and impressions of that perlod of life when boys and girls are inseparable compavlons indeed, but not lovers, and the pecullar grace which the poet has glven these pastorals is due in some part, no doubt, to the fact that they are largely autoblographical. In the “Later Sonnets,” which form a part of the volume, the poet has again touched the high level of sonnet writing so character- tstic of his efforts in this form of com- position. Houghton-Mifin Co., Boston. “Poetry and Morals” is a new book by Rev. Louis Albert Banks. Dr. Banks' emi. nent skill In stating and illustrating fa- miliar truths ia an lmpressive and win- ning manner and invariably securing the animated interest of the reader is strik- ingly evidenced in this charming volume. The author has arranged several hundred simple truths in paragraphs appropriately headed in full-face type. The truths are explained In a few terse sentences and the verses, entire poems or prose selections having direct bearing on the truth are added, forming a perfect storehouse of suggestivo material for preacher and writer. Funk & Wagnalls Co., New York. Price, $1.50. Of the many thousands who have under- taken to traverse the gold-beering regions of Alaska it has fallen to the lot of Mr. Joslah Edward Spurr, geologist of the United States geological survey, to give an authentic narrative i his *“Through Yukon Gold Diggings” of the hardships and dan- gers encountered by all who penetrate into tho heart of the territory. The volume is a record of personal experience and observa- tion and while it retains the semblance of fiction in its many and various incidents the historical interest and worth will be highly praised and appreciated. The work contains many half-tove fllustrations from actual photographs taken by the author and friends.

Pric Religious Movements for Social Better- ment,” by Joslah Strong, president of the Lengue for Soclal Service, Is a volume tha will appeal to all religious workers Those churches are shown to have the most vigorous growth which have been most enterprising in adjusting chelr activities to the various needs of the new soclal en vironment. These new activities are shown to differ from the old In their effort to uplift the whole of the wan instead of a fraction of him and to regenerate soclety as well as individuals.

Amerlean interest in the wonderful grand canyon of Arizona has greatly increased in the last few years and it is now recognized as the most stupendous scene to be found on this continent.

Of all the tales which the wires daily bring from the breezy, balmy places of the west the dispatches from Omaha re- lating the kidnaping and ransom of Mil- lionaire Cudahy's son carry oft the palm. The youngster 18 15 years old and did not iapparently make any outery. His father 18 a gentleman of mature years and of noted ability to take care of himself. The kid- napers laid themselves open to discovery by negotiations of the most simple and direct nature, and Mr. Cudaby, following directions and stipulations, deposited $25,- 000 and redeemed the boy! It is a startling and wonderful tale; and it it had happened in Sicily instead of Nebraska it would still have taxed credulity. hown. Recalls the Roas Cai Kansas City Star. This strange incident at Omaba has again called up the mournful case of Charley Ross, which has not been forgotten in tbe lapse of many years since it startled the country. It is such intensely human ex- periences which appeal to the great heart of the people and which come closer home (o them than the tragedies of war. In every home in the land where there are children, be the habitation humble or pre- tentlous, the Omaha story will be: read with absorbing interest and there will be an understanding of all of the agony which the parents of young Cudahy suffered while he was In the hands of the desperadocs who held him for ransom, Severe Penaltics Demanded. Chicago Inter Ocean. The Cudahy case should suggest to the legislatures assembling this winter an in- quiry whether the penalties now decreed by law against man stealing are sufficiently severe. The criminal code of Illinols cer- tainly is far too lenient. The kidnaper of a child under 12 years of age may be im- prisoned for life, but if the victim be above Comment on Kidnaping that age, as was young Cudahy alty is far from adequate. In this state the perpetrators of such a crime, if cap tured and convicted, could be imprisonel but five years and not more than $1,000. These penalties are plainly not d terrent of a crime of which the gains may be so large. The courts of every state #hould have power to imprison for life every man stealer. The perpetrator of a crime 0 inhuman should never again be permitted to mingle with those whose tenderest feel- ings he has so grossly outraged. the pen A Meanure of Self-Defensc. Brooklyn Eagle. It the scoundrels are not caught the ransom will be established upon a basis which will make the brigandage of Italy and Spain insignificant. No blame can a'- tach to Mr, Cudahy for that result. The government failed him in a matter of life and death. He had to organize himself into a government it. Any other father with the power would have done the same thing. he can do for the protection of other par- ents by offering a reward equally as large for the capture of the abductors. A Pointer for Lawmakers. Chicago Times-Herald. In view of the distressing circumstances attending this case the suggestion that the law be amended at the coming session of the legisiature so as to make kidnaping for ransom punishable by death will meet with general approval. The death penalty will be regarded as altogether too wmild a punishment for such a crime by thoke who are fortunate enough to have loved ones at home. Death on the gallows of a fend who will subject parents to the indescrib- able torture of threatening to burn out a child’s eyes unless he is ransomed can hardly compensate a mother for her heart- ache and her agonizing suspense. Th cannot requite her for her suffe recompense her 1oss. Esample pt Reassuring. New York Tribune. Supposing Mr. Cudahy had said he would not encourage kidnapers and the boy had come back with eyes put out to reproach bim through a life of misery. The virtue of having refused to make terms with vil- lains for the preservation of the boy's sight would not be particularly consoling to the father or particularly satisfactory to the son. The Ross case is quoted as oftering an example of good cltizenship, but, unfortunately for its effects as a bracer for fathers and mothers, Charley Ross never came back. The failure of his abductors to get anything doubtless did discourage the practice of abduction, but it did not tend to reassure the victims of the trust- worthiness of police promlses to recover stolen children. An Act of Brigandage. Baltimore Sun. The crime of abduction is one of the most heinous in the modern calendar. Rare as it is, it 18 in the few instances that oc- cur associated usually with family jars, and the motive s the possession of a child by one of the parents. The Omaha case, how- ever, was purely an act of brigandage, and its perpetrators can have been no common criminals. The whole country recoils from the recital of the affair with horror, as it sends a pang to the heart of every parent. Mr. Cudahy's compliance with the terms of the abductors is deplorable, Inasmuch as it holds out temptation to the recklessy and daring element of our population, the class that wrecks trains and “holds up* storekeepers and travelers. Herole Action in the Rows Case. New York World, When Mr. and Mrs. Edward Cudahy ot Omaha, declded to pay $25,000 for the sute return home of their kidnaped son and “ask no questions” they no doubt acted on that strong impulse of natural affection to which 99 per cent of parents similarly placed would be tempted to yield. And yet from the larger standpoint of the whole community's interests it would have been better for them to have offered any re- ward, however great, for the recovery ot their son plus the discovery and convic- tion of the kidnapers than to have pald a ransom, however small, on the “no ques- tions asked” plan. This point is so obvious that it admits of no argument. The father of Charley Ross never recovered his boy, but he did the whole country an immensely valuable service when he stood firm to the end against paying ransom. Thousands of well-to-do homes were made safer from invasion and desolation by Mr. Ross' herolc action. tures and hairbreadth escapes. The au- thor himself met with many perilous expe- riences. He finds the scenery magnificent beyond description, the Indians and thelr legends and customs picturesque, and the 1ife of the traveler and explorer fascinating in spite of its hardships.

Duribg the heat of the general engagement the allies were for- gotten, but early in the afternoon there was a lull in the action and while Chaffee was consulting with some of his regl- mental officers a Cuban aide came rushing up and reported that the native division was out of ammunition. ‘My colonel de- sires that you send him immediately some cases of cartridges,’ he said, in conclusion. Chaffeo looked at him with a sardonic grin, ‘I don't think you fellows had better burn any more cartridges,’ he said, slowly. “Those Spaniards might find out you were shooting at ‘em, and If they did, they'd come over and kick your whole blankety- blanked cowardly crowd all the way down to Mantanzas.

While casily cul- tivated, and adapting itself to a varied cli- mate, it differs from other members of the cerealla group in its manner of reproduc- tion, not being provided with the same means for dispersing its seed, the graia be- ing hard to detach from the cob, and also enveloped in a thick, tough wrapper of many folds. s V rlous rms.

In these finer forms we use it principally for mush, breads and puddings. It has been a rtained by analysis that maize, or Indian corn, con- | tains the largest amount of fat of all the | cereals; although Bauer attributes a larger | proportion of fatty constituents to oats. Compared with potatoes, in point of nutri- | tlon, cornmeal gives four or five times the chemical | amount of food value obtained from the | former. While it cannot, of course, super- sede the wheat preparations, being much poorer than wheat as flesh-formers, there is considerable difference in the cost of the best grades; and among classes whose oc- cupations require a greater amount of physical exerclse and resistance to cold weather it should be more generally used, turnishing, as it does, at a nominal cost, the elements to produce force and heat as well as to store up no small amount of energy, while at the same time, its fatty constitu- ents prevent the waste of the albuminous substances, acting as a mediator, as it were. Corn may be added to any diet list that is not restricted absolutely to purely liquid foods. But in order to sult all conditions and avold any danger of difficulty in di- gesting it, as this is found to be a fro- quent objection to its use, one must have the necessary knowledge of the nature ot the different grades.

Rorer, ager Rittenhouse Our southern friends scorn the yellow corn meal. True, the white s much more delicate in flavor than the yellow, which has a peculiar taste, which is objected to by many. This is largely duc to the greater amount of fat contained in the yellow.
