L. Alden has | ritten a story, full of action and incident rom first to last. The opening scenes, hich offer thrilling pictures of adventure in war time, involve the reader in a mystery that piques hls curiosity throughout the chapters of accidents and adventures by sea and land that follow. There are some most companionable characters in this en- tertaining tale, notably an American multl- millionaire, whose career has not quenched & delightful gift of bumor.

Printed by D. Ap- pleton & Company. “Mary Garvin" by Fred Lewls Pattee, is @ pleasing and quiet romance of back coun- with characfers that are natural le. We grow interested in and become familiar with the odd back-porch philosophers, who gather in the cross-roads store and the blacksmith shop, The pages are full of quaint humor and droll inci- dents. Mary Garvin, a robust, light-hearted tarmer's daughter, a refreshing and cheer- tul nature, who had feit no career of life, became engaged to the village blacksmith's #on, who, though just-admitted to the bar #0d became a member of & law firm in Con- sord, 1s spending the summer at home In his father's shop. The coming of the summer boarder into their midst—Miss Bradley— draws the attention of the blacksmith's son, as well as causing a desire in the entire community to gain an education Mary Garvin, while rowing a boat one evening on thé lake, realizes as she listens to her lover and Miss Bradley in conver- sation, her need of a better education to become his equal and decides to go to Bos- ton and study music. Her desire is accom- plished after a series- of dificulties are overcome by the financlal assistance of thetr farmhand, Joel- Green, who usually occuples the center of the stage when he arrives with his laughable stories and pungent philosophy. ‘The story closes with an old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinner at the home of the Garyin's and seated at the table are Mary and her lover, happy and tontented, thankful that they “know each pther now.” Published by Thomas Y. Crow- sl & Co. Charles Seribner's Sons are out with the publication of an attractive and neat little volume of poems from the pen of Robert Pridges (“Droch”), entitled ‘‘Bramble Brae.

It is a historical novel written by Elizabeth Wormeley Latimer, author of “The Last Years of the Nineteenth Cen. tury.” Her hero is Rinaldo D'Este, cousin to Louls XV, who attempts to give up his rank and title for the Huguenot malden he loves. The French laws are very severe against the marriage of Huguenots and Catholics, and the prince and his young wife are compelled to escape to the new world. Thelr adventures and trials, which are many and varied, are described in a s full of color and imagination. “The Improprieties of Noah” and other stories, written by Harold V. Smedberg and published by the Abbey Press, is an interesting little book, containing love sto- ries in which the situations are wholly novel. The pretty heroloes of the ro- mances are always, full of bewitching al- lurements, whether engaged in carrying on a flirtation under the nose of a watchful chaperone, in unexpected encounter with a desperate burglar, or suddenly thrust face to face with a jilted lover at the top of the Washington monument, with no third person present to make the position less difcult. “Practical Talks by an Astronomer,” by Harold Jacoby, adjutant professor of as- tronomy in Columbla university, has just been published by the Scribners. It is written by a scientist, who well knows how to make his subject interesting to the unsclentific. From the endless subjects contained in the sclence that admit of de- tached treatment he has chosen a number of those. which are of the greatest general Interest and has treated these in a prac- tical way with special reference to the enlightenment of the general reader. Such titles as ‘Navigation at Sea,” “The New Planet of 1868, “How to Make a Sundial,” ndards of the World,” “Saturn's he Hellometer,” “Mounting Tel- and “The Sun's Destruction” in- dicate the popular, as his treatment em- phasizes the practical, character of the book. It s well fllustrated. Are you one of those born and bred in the country? Are you of those to whom nature lore is the familiar poetry of ex- istence? If you are then you should read “Next to the Ground,” by Martha McCul- loch Willlams. She has seen and set down the dally matters of country life in a most charming way In this record of a boy's and girl's farm life. Her lore is al- ways quaint and Interesting, having In it the true savor of the soll. The reader will find in these pages much fascinating knowl- edge of winds and clouds, of homely farm employments and bits of hidden woodland life, of the way of the weed iu the fur- row, of the mule in the harness and of the trout in the stream.

It is composed of interesting and instructive essays upom the subjects, “Some Tangents of the Ego," “The Mind for a Remedy,” “Phe Etlology of Lyin “‘Man an Alr-eating Anim: #‘The Physical Basis of Expertness’” and “The Discordant Children.” These essays are tull of suggegtions and worthy of a wide reading. Dr. Bridges is also author of “The Penalties of Taste” and other es- says. His treatment of the themes in his first volume has given hjm a prominent place among American essayists. Pub- lished by S.

Brendan a warrant for half the amount due him for the construction of the South Omaha emergency hospital; to give the South Omaha Board of Health a war- rant for the other half; to give the Douglas County Agricultural soclety no warrant at all; to give the finance committee power to do what it pleases in collecting realty tax; and finally, to give Connolly and O'Keeffe opportunity to fight out. in committee of the whole, the battle for which each has buckled on his armor and offered up his prayer in a determipation to annihilate the other. Contractor Brennan. was on hand again and Colonel John B. Watkins of the South Omaha Board of Health was also there to say things. Watkins had attached bills for material to the documients in evidence and Brennan took exception to this, declaring that he needed no guardian mixing in his aftairs. After considerable talk of an acri- monious nature the board pushed the ver- bal combatants into their respective cor- ners and agreed to give Brennan a warrant for $469.40 and the South Omaha board ono for $488, the latter to pay Brennan this amount as soon as disputed bills wers agreed upon Pampkin Show Turned Down. Chairman Ostrom of the committee of the whole reported adversely on the appli- cation of John Armour as president and G. W, Hervey as secretary of the Douglas County Agricultural soclety for an appro- priation from the county to assist in hold- ing another fair in 1902, The committee report, which was unanimously adopted, reads in part: “We have glven the matter careful consideration and belleve that the holding of the county fair in Douglas county is not of any special Interest to the agriculturists at large and that the cost of maintaining the same is greatly in excess of the benefits derived therefrom. The request of the petitioners is rejected and no appropriation to be made for the purposes of an agricultural exhibit in Douglas county in 1902." Connolly's Explosion Postponed. While the meeting was in progrees the audience had been growing steadily in an- tielpation of” forensic fireworks when Mr. Connolly should make his predicted at- tempt to tie up with the republican minor- ity and shake O'Keeffe's men out of thelr official boots. The powder was there, but it was burled for the time being, to be touched off' in committee room. This is Connolly's bpmb: ‘Whereas, On February 14, 192, this board adopted a resolution placing in the hands of the various heads of departments the avthority to hire and scharge any and all employes in thelr several depart- ments, and ‘Whereas, This board has no authority in law to delegate its powers and duties to anyone, therefore, be it l{elnlv.d. That the sald resolution be and the same is hereby rescinded. When Connolly moved the adoption of this and Harte had Seconded it, O'Keeffe arose to move that it go te the committee of the whole. Connolly was on’ his feet instantly and ready to speak, but Chatr< man Hofeldt flagged him by ruling that it should be disposed of as had been sug- gested by O'Keefte, and the blaze of caustic oratory was extinguished. Dose for County Druggist. Then O'Keeffe introduced a resolution charging Charles Blezek, as druggist and male nurse at the county hospital with dereliction in duty insofar as be has, ac- cording to the resolution, refused to do anything but mix medicines, which requires only a half-hour, or at the most, two hours per day. The resolution closed by. instruct- ing the superintendent to discharge any who refuse to obey his orders, the board to investigate and act In cases that are car- ried to it by theMischarged parties. In explanation O'Keeffe said that the drugg'st wes employed to act as male nurss also, but that Blezek is reported to be spending five or six hours a day in town “sparkin’,” and to be indifferént to the superintendent because the superintendent has been Iniimidated by threats made by a certain member of the board. , Connolly again felt called upon to say something, but the chalr again intervened with a ruling tpat the motion was out of order agd it was'dropped.

SPRINKLING MAY BE DONE BY CONTRACT Efforts to Secure Reform in Methods May Not Meet Success with Council Daring Pres- ent Summer. | City Engineer Rosewater was asked yos- terday what plans his department had In the way of street cleaning and street sprinkling for the spring season. He answared: y In the absence of a tax levy, I can't say what we will do fn this directlon. We have to cut according to our cloth. At present we are using such small amount of funds as remain in the general fund in keeping the sewers in shape, as the sanitary condition of the city and the public health depend upon this, As t street cleaning, only such as is absolut necessary is being done. I am in hoves that the city council will be free to pas: a taxlevy orflinance early !n May, and thea we can make our plans more definitely. “For several years I have recommended in my annual reports that the city be di- vided Into streat sprinkling districts, and that the cost of sprinkling be assessed agalnst the property in those districts The city charter provides for such districting. but thus far the council has not seen fit to proceed along this line. The chances are that streets will be sprinkled thls sea son they have heen In the past, by con- tract with individuals, which s a wvery unsatisfactory method.
