The author is a mem- ber of the staft of the Phi'adelphia Press and familiar with the society of the Quaker City. It 1s the fashion to treat lightly the loves of college days and the follies whick may flow from them. In (" case of Jarvis who might he any student temptel as he was—the grave responsibilities of early fn- fatuations and entanglemenis are shown ‘The book 15 already much talked about.

The Macmillan company, New York. My Strangest Case,” by Guy Boothby, s in many ways the strougest and most inter- esting noyel yet written by that interestiug author. It 1s detective stery which is # new departure for Mr. Boothby. It has to do with burled treasures stolen from the ruined palaces of a forgotten city in China hy three adventurers, one of whom tricks his partners and escapes with the hard won spofle. From the east the scene shifts to London, Paris and Italy, in the endeavor by the hero, the detective, to track the prineipal adventurer and restore 1o the latter's partners their portion of the stolen treasure.

Another book, “Dunstable Weir," from the pen of thet talented writer known ln literature as “Zack' and in private life Gwendoline Keats, is at hand, and cons| of a collection of short fiction distinctly brilHant both In style and execution. Each new book from (his pen has now a pecullar interest, due to the rapid development of @ rare talent that may attain no one knows what eud. Zack's first book, “'Life is Life,” embodying the best stories written since the beginning of her literary career in 1896, made & distinet {mpression and placed her securely in the literary fold. Her second book, “On Trial" was a powerful novel murking a long stride forward. Her third book, “The White Cottage,” out last spring and in its second edition, Indicates a further advance in achievement and popu- larity. Charles Scribner's Sons, New York. “The Fireside Sphinx” is by Agnes Rep- plier, author of “Peints of View' and “E: says in Idleness.” “The Fireside Sphinx" 18 the “suave and puissant cat,” whose his- tory Miss Repplier traces with loving solicitude from its first appearance by the Nile down to the present day. She has fol- lowed their fortunes through dark days and Lright, (hrough periods of persecution and of t(riumph. The book should appeal to lovers of literature no less than to lovers of cats, since it has the literary quality which lends distinction and vivaclty to all Miss Repplier's work. Miss Bonsall's illus- trations are exceedingly interesting. There are four full-page studies of cats, drawn with admirable skill and delicacy. Artistic head and tail pieces add to the charm of the book. Houghton Mifin & Co., Boston, The best book of ‘the kind (hat has come 10 hand so far is “The Century Book for Mothers, eing a practical guide in the rearing of healthy children.

The idea of the authors ap- pears to be that the mother should be fully informed on hyelene rather than on the treatment of diseases on the theory of the ‘ounce of prevention.” The first part of the work Is deveted to ““The General Care of Children” and the second part is made up from questions which have actually been put by mothers to the editors of Babyhood It is a good, sensible, practical work abounding in valuable suggestions for the protection of children against the many ills 1o which they are heir. The Century com- pany, New York Mr. Samuel Merwin, whose joint author- ehip of “The Short Line War" marked him out as a writer of promise, has now written a novel of his own, “The Road to Fronte- nac.” It is a romance of Quebec and the St. Lawrence in the latter part of the sev- enteenth century and is full of the feeling of wilderncas lite and intensely dramatic In its \portrayal of the Indians and their treatment of the captured party whose for- tunes the story follows. Winding through these rough and hloody scenes is & love story of the utmost charm and delic It is, to say the least, a thoroughly honest and admivable work. Doubleday, Page & Co., New York Henry Frank, the author of “The Doom of Dogma and the Dawn of Truth,” has de- parted widely from the traditional methods of biblical interpretation, and yet treats the subject with reverence and without that destructive spirit which actuates many radical eritics of the present day. He says that he has not undertaken the work merely to tear down old Institutions, but that he believes that he has substituted a new in- terpretation of the truth for every struc- ture demolished. Mr. Frank was for some vears a minister of the orthodox church, but was finally led to construct an inde pendent system of religious instruction. G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York e Works, Juy “The Falry Land of America’ Is a juve- nile and yet it s one of those books occa- sionally met with which appeals almost as | strongly to the grown-ups. There is some- lvhlnl very real and at the same time en. tertaining about the stories. Very few chil- dren’s books are humorous, but this one is distinctly %o On the sida of its humor it might be styled a nonsense book. It is a tale of topsy-turvy land, in which nothing happens In the ordinary way, and only the bizarre occurs. Frederick A. Stokes com- vany, New York. | Unlike many of the more interesting | books of recent issue that have attracted | unusual interest, “Rickard Vaughn,” by Benjamin F.

Bridgeman. The | storivs are well and entertainingly told and are evidently intended for children from 6 to 12 years of age. The printing and | paper are very good and the binding neat, making the volume as a whole attractive in appearance. It contalns a number of full page illustrations in black and white.

There are lively pilgrimages to Marblehead and Salem (o wee the old landmarks; and throughout the story the pleasures of the seashore, with its out-of-door amusements, refined home life and social gatherings are made delightfully true to life. Every girl should read this new “Brenda’ story. Lit- tle, Brown & Co., Boston. L e & Co. of Boston long since Ralned for themwelves an enviable reputa- tion as publishers of good books, for it seems as If they have outdgne themselves this fall in the number, yarfety and excel- lence of their publications. A large num- ber of them have already received extended notices in these columns. Among others not so noticed and which have recently coms to hand are (wo more of those most at- tractive Juvenile books belonging to the Cosy Corner series. They are: “A Little Puritan Ploneer,” by Edith Robinson, and “'Peggy's Tria by Mary Koight Potter. Like all the books of that series they are handsomely illustrated. Then there are two | boys' books: “Larry Hudson's Ambition that well known writer, James Otis, and “The Hero of the Hills,” by G. Walde Browne, the latter belonging to the Wood- ranger Tales, Another series of hooks which have earned well deserved popularity in previous years is known as “The Day's Work series,” to which five additions a made, as follows: “The Apples of Sin," by Coulson Kernahan; “A Literary Gent." by Coulson Kernahan; ‘aith as Related to Health,” by Willlam E. Barton: “The Un- known Singers,” by Charles F. Dole, and “‘Consolation,” by Willlam E. Barton. A lit- tle book, very nicely gotten up, is “Bible Conundrums,” collected by Fred A, Wil son. L. C. Page & Co., Boston, Lee & Shepard, the Boston publishers, have brought out a very large line of ju- venile books suited for all ages and for girls as well as for boys. One of the most noteworthy is “A Twentieth Century Boy," by Marguerite Linton Glentworth, whose “small boy" articles were so well received, This Is a book (0 amuse grown-ups rather than children. Its fun s irresistible, Among the books suited especially to the eeds of boys well advanced there is “With Washington in the West; or a Soldier Boy's Battle In the Wilderness,” by Edward Strathemeyer, one of the most popular au- thors of boys' stories. “A Hoy of Ol4 Japan," by R, Van Bergen, belongs to that class of books having the double advautage of being botn interesting and instructive It tells the story of the life of a boy in the old Japan before the introduction of wesi- ern ideas.

The boys who read “In the Days of Alfred the Great,” by the same author, last year will want her latest work. Both these books by Miss Tappan are bistorfeally accurate.

Merrill tells of the friendship between two “Betty Sheldon, Patriot,” by Lilian Crawford True, is the kind of a book that a girl would select for herself because of its Interest and at the same time it is one that her elders would seloct because of its good, wholesome in- fluence. “Randy's Summer,” by Amy Brooks, was so well received last year that the same author has brought out for this season “Randy's Winter,” making it the second of what promises to become an in- teresting series of books to be known as the “Randy’" series. “‘Boy Donald and H Chum™ {s a most attractive little volume for younger children. Penn Shirley knows how to write a book for amall people and this is the second volume of his ““Boy Don- ald" serles. “Lucy In Fairyland,” by Sophia May, being the sixth and last of the “Little Prudy’'s Children™ series, and “Jes- sica’s Triumph.” being the second volume of the “Janet" serles, are bound in the same general style as “Boy Donald” and the three books would go very nicely to- gether where there were three children of about the same age. “A Jolly Cat Tale” i8 for still smaller children and can be highly commended as an entertaining book for little people. “Only Dolly,” by Nina Rhodes, is a well written story of a girl of about 12 years of age, who passes from a lite of drudgery to better thinge. Taken altogether, this is a splendid line of juve- nile books and no one intending to pur- chase holiday books for young people should fail to examine it before making selections. Lee & Shepard, Boston. The thirteen short stories presented in “Legends of King Arthur and His Court,” by Francls Nimmo Greene, form a perfeci connected serles and relate the adventures of King Arthur and of his most noted knights. The style in which these chivalric legends are told is simple and direct and the material Is selected In such a way as to exclude all those unwholesome matters which rendes earller writings on the sub- Ject unfit for the perusal of the young. In fact, the work is arranged with the par- ticular purpose of adapting it for supple- mentary reading in schools. It is designed to fill an often expressed need—that of a work for the developing mind, embrac- ing tales of those splendid examples of manly courzge and devotion to duty which marked the golden age of western ro- mance and poesy. The twelve full-page illustrations, drawn by Edmund H. Gar- rett, are of unusual excellence and Inter- est and are of great assistance In inter- preting the stories. Ginn & Co., Boston Kirk Munroe's book for this season deals with what many consider the most romantic episode in our history, the opening of Japan. He calls it “A Son of Satsuma, or with Perry in Japal The hero of ths story s not, however, literally a “Son of Sat- suma,’’ for he is a bright and adventurous American boy, who gbes to Japan with Commodore Perry and there meets with the most surprising and romantic adven- | tures, all most skillfully turned to the pur- pose of impressing the reader with the main facts, the atmosphere and the enor mous importance of ‘his curlous episode. Charles Scribuer's Sons, New York, “The Story of Litile Nell” addition to the series of eclectic school readings, so widely and favorably known to teachers. It comprises the groundwork and much the larger portton of “The Old Curiosity Shop™ and is given in the pres- ent volume just as Dickens wrote if, but treed from the various episodes and other passages originally employed to fntroduce other characters. The story, thus abridged and confined solely to the relation of the pathetic adventures of its heroine, will ap- American is the latest Book company, Chicago “The Double Prince, Or a Fall Through the Moocn'" is one of the drollest, most or- iginal little hooks which have been pub- lished for a long time. This story of “Rolipoli,” the prince who lived in the moon, and of the extraordinary adventures he meete with in his topsy-turvy world, Is most amusiug. The seven full-page illus trations, by Bertba G. Davidson. succeed in interpreting as well as embellishing the text and add notably to the charm of the book. Dana, Estes & Co., Boston. Little Magazines, The second number of the Bilioustine, a periodical of knock, published by Willlam 8. Lord, Evanston, Ill., is at hand. The reader does not have to be told that this little magazine 1s a take-off on the Philis- tine, as a single glance Is sufcient to con- v that fact. The general style and makeup, even to the pecullar paper used for the cover, and the language of the con- tents, are all imitated in a way to ridlcule the original. The cover bears this in- scription in addition to the title, “Knock and the world knocks with you: Boost and you boost alone.” And again, “Done into print whenever we need the money, by the Boy Grafters at East Aurora, 1" As a plece of humor it is unmurpassed. The ¥Fra McGinnis of the Bilioustine is a more entertaining character than the original ¥ra, and his writings contain more real common sense than his model. Tt is the very best antidote for the blues to be found on the shelves of the booksellers. Literary Note R. T Russell's catalogue of holiday hooks, which Is just at hand, is a work of art. It contalns a long list of books that will undoubtedly prove interesting W. A ‘raser, who, because of his virile language and fine word painting, hus been called the American Kipling, contributes to the November Delineator the best story that has yet come from his pen. It fs called "Tlhie Offcasting of Nichemois’ and it tells how a "Squaw Man" is called back to his desire r culture by some cultured neighbors only to have his aspirations quenched by a rebuff. The remarkable strength of the story I8 increased by excel- Tent Niustrations For a publishing house that one vear agn insued only books, the firm of Doublediy Page & Co. certainly holds a remarkable record for periodical making, and one en- viable under any circumstances. Twelye months ago the World's Work was begun a8 a4 new sort of a magazine with unusual Dlustrations. Shortly after the firm of John Wanamaker intrusted them with the cditing, {llustrating and the manufucture of Everybody's Magazine. Now comes the new periodical, Country Life in America, in which they ‘quite excel their own repu: tation, for elaborate illustration with lar and superb pictures of the beautiful things of the country and nature. These new en- terprises have given this well known con- cern ‘even greater prestige and a ‘wider scope in the publication of books; but their policy, says & member of the firm, will not %0 much tend to an fucrease in the number of books issued as to maintaining a high standard of selection. g The above books ore for sale by the Megeath Stationery Co., 1308 Farnam St OMAHA DAILY BEFE: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 6, 1901, STOVE GAS STIFLES THEM is | - Thomas Nolas and Tim Collins Die in Their Room.

CALLS THE BILL ALLOWED A PLAIN STEAL Langunge of Men bate, but Veto me Su ingenders De- tnined by the men After the Argument. Coun A few pointed remark Suxon embodied in a veto from Moores caused a considerable stir at meeting of the city council last night veto reads in tobust Anglo- Mayor the I'he 1 return document dy at y %01 with without my _approval passed by your honorable ir last regular meeting, October This document fs a resolition au- thorizing the city comptroller to place an ordinance item in the next fppropriation .everton, 1o be taken of $100 in favor of J from the general fund veto this resolution In the first place be- cause it i3 ordered that the amount of $100 be taken out of the general fund, instead of the park fund, which is the proper fund from which sald claim should be paid, if an nest one. In the second place, 1 do not ‘nsfder this claim & just one and one the taxpayers should pay. In the papers re- lating to this matter found in the city clerk's office I find that this man J. Lever- ton had a horse killed through the careless- ness, as he claims, of the foreman of the work, one McCloud. There is nothing In the claim of Mr Leverton that shows any fault on the part of the city, and it looks to me like a clean steal of $i00. 1 therefore veto this resolution When it came to a vote the veto was unanimously sustained by the council, but Mr. Hascall took exceptions to having the alleged claim dubbed a “steal.” He stated that it was as square and sound a claim as was ever filed and that there was no doubt of the city's llability. All the members of the Board of Park Commissioners had approved it. It seems that Leverton's horse was killed while he was working with the animal on the improvements in Miller park. Further discussion of the matter resulted in the sustaining of the veto and the affair was left open. In a formal communication to the council Mayor Moores announced the appointment of John W. Battin and Edgar Zabriski to act with Tax Commissioner Fleming as members of a board of review which will canvass the assessments of all real and personal property recently made Assistant City Attorney Adams advised the acceptance of the proposition that has been made to the city relative to the dis pute over special taxes Against the Redick property.
