TAILOGY OF ECCLESIASTICAL NOVELS Story of Weatern Life—Author of an English Woman's Love Wri Letters ' Agnin=The Moderns ~Farm Rhymes, “One Forty-Two, Boy," I8 by Henry mewrpaper man the Reformed Messenger M. Hyde, a Chicago His tales of “One Porty. Two'' have been running from time to time | A the Chicago Tribune and have interested and amused thousands of readers. The Chicago reporter comes to kuow the sharp wrchins that respend to the calls for dis- trict messengers, who, while acoredited with being slow, are the swiftes! “Kide" “One Forty-Two" has reformed snd details vividly ths varlous schemes he s worked for his own amusement and the | chum's | increass of his own and pockel money. Mr. Hyde has oharactar of the meseenger hoy and his life to perfection. “One Forty. Two' |n also something of a Sherlock Holmes, frequantly detecting crime and bringing the criminal to punishment. The Ulustrations are clever and the range of subjeets wide. There are sixtecn of the re- formed messenger stories, the most Inter. ‘ating being “De Jealous Dalsy,” “‘Diamond Angle,” “De Daie Noto” and “One Forty- Two's ort’ Side Mash." These few ti- tles will give those who have not read Mr. Hyde's clever conception an idea of what the other twelve are ke, while the thou- »nds of those that have read the stories when first published will be glad that they ean now aecure the collection between covers. Herbert S. Stone & Co., Chicago. his caught the his slang “The Warden" s the first of the trilogy of ecclestastical novels which coniributed %o greatly, and so justly, to the fama of Anthony Trollope, This stmple plcture of clerical 1ifo in the English cathedral town of Barchester is painted in the sober tints suitable to the subject. It is a study In grisatlle. But the pearls and grays are often very effective. The book 1s addition. ally Interesting to us of a later generation An containing the author's attack on Care Ivle transparently 'disguised as Dr. Pessi- mist Anticant. The attack is in rather bad taste. Trollope was far from happy when in an aggressive mood, and the method adopted, that of parody, is, in his hands, mot precisely fortunate. On the other hand, the frony with which he treats the vested interests of the established church and their administration are delightful. The characters of “The Warden" reappear in “Barchester Towers and “The Last Chronicle of Barset.” In bringing “The Warden out in convenient size and in a cheap editlon the publishers are conferring & favor upon the reading public. It is to ba hoped that the publisher will bring out other of Anthony Trollope's works in the «ame convenlent form. John Lane, New York. “That @Girl Montana,” by Rymn {8 a sympathetic story and plains, well conceived aud wrought out With skill and effect. It is a picture more of life as it was than as it is, of a time when the people lived closer to nature and to each other than they do now. There is he heroine, warm-hearted and magnetic, rawing men to her by her power of heart #nd character,-but suffering from an un- ast imputation of crime: there are the “unselfish, helpful gentlemen, and the sneak plotter, all faithtully drawn and made to act their appropriate parts. It Is a story ‘well —and faithfully written. Rand, Mc- Nally & Co., Chicago. “A Modern Antaeus’ is the title of a ®mew book by the author of “An Eoglish Woman's Love Letters,” but the name of the writer is still a secret. It deals with modern English life and {s the story of one Tristim Gavney, nicknamed “Tramp,” on account of his vouthful wanderings. This modern Antaeus Is a child of nature, who hears the sap flowing in the trees, discovers hidden springs of water with a divining rod, and, with his owh unfettered personal- fty, ho leads the reader unconventionally among many sorts of people and to the mecrets of the woods and open fields as well, Those who have read it are fn the dark as to the authorship no less than are the publishers, who received the manuseript from an imperturbable English literary gent. They all agree, however, that it is a0 intensely modern novel of true literary weight. Following o closely upon the lit- tion of last year, with the sale ly 250,000 cop! of “An English Woman's Love Letters,” the novel of the unknown author is bound to be one of the most talked of books of this year. .

A «top should be put upon the indiscriminate permission to Indlans to lease their allot- ments. The effort should be steadily to make the Indian work like any other man on his own ground.

There Is no use in attempting to Induce agriculture in a country suited only for cattle raising, where the indian should be wade a stock grower. The ration sys- tem, which {s merely the corral and the reservation system, is bighly detrimental to the Indians. It promotes heggary, per- pétuates nauperism and stifies industry.

The Indlan should be treated as an individual—like the white man. During the change of treatment inevitable hardships will ocour; every effort should be made to minimize these hard- ships, but we should mot because of them hesitate to make the change. There should be a continuous reduction in the number of agencles. In dealing with the aboriginal races few things are more important than to preserve them from the terrible physical and moral degradation resulting from the liquor trafic. We are doing all we can to saye our own Indlan tribes from this evil. Wherever by international agreement this same end can be attained as regards races where we do not possess exclusive control, every effort should be made to bring ft about st 1 bespeak the most cordlal support from the congress and the people for the St Louts exposition to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Loulsiana purchase. This purchase was the greatest instance of ex- pansion in our history. It definitely de- cided that we were to become a great con- tinental republic, by far the foremost power in the western hemisphere. It is one of three or four great landmarks in our history—the great turning points in our development It is eminently fitting that all our people should join with heartiest good will in commemorating it and the citizens of Bt. Louls, of Missourl, of all the adjacent reglon are entitled to every aid in making the celebration & noteworthy event in our annals. We earnestly hope that foreign nations will appreciate the deep interest our country takes in this exposition and our view of its importance from every stand- point and that they will participate in so- curing its success. The national govern- meént should be represented by a full and compliete set of exhibit Charleston Exposition. The people of Charleston, with great en- ergy and civic spirit, are carrying on an ex- positioh which will continue throughout most of the present session of congress. 1 heartily commend this exposition to the g00d will of the people. It deserves all the encouragement thal can be given it. The managers of the Charleston exposition have requested the cabinet officers to place thereat the government exhibits which have been at Buffalo, promising to pay the nece: ary expenses. | have taken the respona aility of directing that this be doue, for 1 feel that it is due Charleston to help it in its pralseworthy effort. In my opinion the management should not be required te pay all thewe expenses. | earnestly recom. mend that the congress appropriate at once the small suin necessary for this purpose.

It is Just that the great agricultural popu- lation should share in the improvement of the service. The number of rural routes now in operation s 6,006, practically all established within three years, and there are 6,000 applications awaliting action. It | is expected that the number in operation | at the close of the current fiscal year will reach 8,600. The mail will then be daily carried to the doors of 5,700,000 of our people who have heretofore heen dependent upon distant offices, and one-third of all that portion of the country which is adapted to it will be covered by this kind of service. expenditures Postal Abuses, The full measure of postal progress which might be realized has long been hampered and obstructed by the heavy burden im posed on the government through the in- trenched and well understood abuses which have grown up in connection with second- class mail matter. The extent of this bur- den appears when it Is stated that while the second-class matter makes nearly three- fifths of the weight of all the mail, it pald for the last fiscal year only $4,204,445 of the aggregate postal revenve of $111,631,193. 1t the pound rate of postage, which produces the large loss thus entailed and which was fixed by the congress with the purpose of encouraging the dissemination of public in- formation, were limited to the legitimate newspapers and perfodicals actually con- templated hy the law, no just exception could be taken. That expense would be the recognized and accepted cost of a liberal public policy deliberately adopted for a justifiable end. Bul much of the matter which enjoys the privileged rate is wholly outside of the intent of the law and has secured admission only through an evasion of its requirements or through lax con- struction. The proportion of such wrongly included matter is estimated by postal ex- perts to be one-half of the whole volume of second-class mail. It it be only one-third or one-quarter, the magnitude of the bur- den is apparent. The Postoffice departmtent has now undertaken to remove the abuses %o far as is possible by a stricter appl tion of the law and it should be sustained in its effort Amerl Owing to the rapld growth of our power and our interests on the Pacific, whatever happens in China must be of the kecnest national concern to us. The general terms of the settlement of the questions growing out of the anti-for- eign uprisings in China of 1500, having heer. formulated in a joint note addressed to China by the representatives of the in- jured powers in December last, were promptly accepted by the Chinese govern- “ment. After protracted conferences the plénipotentiaries of the several powers were able to sign a final protocol with the Chinese plenipotentiaries on the Tth of last September, setting forth the measures taken by China in compliance with the de- mands of the joint note and expressing thelr satistaction therewith. 1t will be laid before the congress, with a report of the plenipotentiary on behalf ot the United States, Mr. Willlam Woodville Rockhill, to whom high praise is due for the tact, good Judgment and energy he has displayed in performing an exceptionally difficult and delicate task : The agreement reached disposes In a manner satisfactory to the powers of the varlous grounds of complaint and will con- tribute materially to better future rela- tione betweer China and the powers. Reparation has been made by China for the murder of forelgners durlng the uprising and punishment has been inflicted on the officlals, however. high in ravk, recognized as responsible for or having participated in the outbreak.

A considerable portion of the money recelved from Mexico on these awards had been paid by this ernment to the claimanis before the de cision of the courts was remdered.

The death of the Empress Dowager Frederick of Germany also aroused the genuine sympa- | thy of the American people, and this sym- | pathy was cordially reciprocated by Ger. many when the president was assassiated Indeed, from every quarter of the civilized world we recelved, at the time of the presi dent’s death, assurances of such grief and regard as o touch the hearts of our people.
