Though #ome of the characters of “Wabeno” and “Tommy-Anne” appear In this book, it is entirely complete in itself and a new story. Published by the Macmillan company “Four Little Indlans,” by Ella Mary Coates, tells about children as they are, and her little folk will be found healthy, normal lttle people who sometimes, in the exuberance of youthful spirits, do the things they ought not to do, but whom one cannot help finding attractive.

The grace and humor of the story keeps pace with the Invention, making this an enjoyable book.

Alfred Ollivant has written only two novels, but the former became a modern classic and showed to the great reading public his rare ability in drawing the intermingling lives and characters of men and dogs. The new story is In & very different vein, though the dog Is still the central character; and the main figures “are & grim ofd lalrd, the last of the “stark Herlot: his fascinating child- wite, and Danny, “gray knight,” the idol of the mistress as well as of the retainers. “Among the Great Masters of Warfare,” by Walter Rowlands, is a book that brings together thirty-two reproductions of fa- mous paintings representing scenes in the lives of celebrated warriors, with explana- tory text by Walter Rowlands, the well known art critic and collector. The sub- Jects of the chapters include Alexander, Hannibal, C r, Cromwell, Frederick the Great, Washington, Napoleon and Grant. Among the {llustrations are: “The Death of Alexander,” from the painting of Carl von by Paul Thumann; ‘‘Nelson Leaving Ports- mouth, 1805," by Fred Roe; “‘The Surrender ‘o Lee,” by Thure de Thulstrup. This vol- ume completes the popular “Great Mas- ters” series, the preceding books being de- voted respectively to the great masters of Uterature, music, painting and oratory. Published by Dana, Estes & Co. “Mayken,” a historical story of Holland for children, by Jessle Anderson Chase, bas been brought out as a companion vol- ume to “Margot.” In makeup and general appearance the two books are practically uniform, and there is a similarity in their central idea—the exciting life of a ver, youthtul heroine In a stirring period of his- tory. The Spanish subjugation of the Netherlands {s the background for the story of little Mayken's adventures. A. C. McClurg & Co., publishers. ““The Speronara,” journeys with Dumas, translated by Katbarine Prescott Worme- Jey, has just been published by Little, Brown & Co. In 1834 the great French novelist set forth upon a series of journeys ‘which furnished material for some delight- ful sketches and stor The pages of the gulde books of the present day are filled with the lore, historical and legendary ‘which Dumas gathered, and which is well | xaows to travelers; but the great writer's | tales and anecdotes are as fresh and enter- | talning as ever, and from this feast Miss | Wormeley, the translator of Balzac, has | Bathered a series of volumes, the first of | Which is now offered. It describes a Medi- terranean trip, taking the reader through Sleily. “The Book of Weddings,” by Mrs. Bur- ton Kingsland, Is a complete manual of the “proper thing” in all the complicated de- | talls of a modern marriage ceremony Among & few of the contents are “Wedding | Customs and Superstitions,” ‘“The Trous- | seau,” “A Church Ceremony,” rriages” and “Wedding ries.” The book is full of valu. able suggestions on the subject of matri- mony, with pictures of floral decorations. Dodd, Mead & Co. has lesued a new novel by Mrs. Amelia E. Barr, entitled “A Song of a Single Note.” The action of the story takes place in New York City during the utionary war and forms a connecting link between Mrs. Barr's earlier books, ‘The Bow of Orange Ribbon" and Mind of Maiden Lane the three movels, taken together, covering nearly a century of life in the metropolis. “The Earth and by Rosegger, is an modern life In Syria. The relator is a Vienna journalist who, in eentimentally ad- | has | vocating the cause of the peasants, been badgered by his companions Into wag- ering that he will live a year as a,farm | hand among those he has championed. After many amusing adventures—the book | Is written In the form of letters—he suc- | ceeds In getting employment in the family of a farmer high up on a mountain. Here {amid poverty he dwells the allotted time, performing the most menial tasks, eating the poorest of food and in every way living the simple life of the peasants, with their | suspicion, their frugality and their simple faith. The story ends with Rosegger mar- rled to the lovely Barbel and settled on the farm for life. Incidentally Mr. Rosegger has given us an Intimate picture of the Syrian peasants, thelr poverty, their in- dustry, thelr frugality, their struggles and temptations, their superstitious Ignorance and their blind faith. Published by G. P. ! Putnam's Sons. “Funds and Their Uses," by F. A. Cleve- land, is a treayse on instruments, methods and institutions in modern finance. In | these days of colossal monetary expendi- tures, the manipulation of private financial enterpriges has become a sclence in itself. Dr. Cleveland has gone exhaustively into are systematically set forth in “Funds and Their Uses.” He has subdivided his tople into three central ideas, viz.: (1) What Are Funds? (2) How Funds are Obtalned; (3) Institutions and Agents Employed in Fund- ing Operations. The literature on the sub- ject 1s decidedly meager and Dr. Cleve- land’s addition can be welcomed as an au- thoritative volume in this branch of eco- nomic science. Published by D. Appleton & Co. Among the noticeable features of the De- llneator for January is its fine cover—the first of a series that will continue through- out the year. The scope of the magazine has been generally widened and new and valuable material bas been introduced into all the departments. Clara E. Laughlin be- gins a serles of papers entitled “Miladl,” in which she considers the problems and prerogatives of womanhood. Cyrus Town- eend Brady is represented by one of his famous bishop stor Interest is height- ed in Mrs. rr's powerful love story, “Thyra Varrick,” and the novel develops along dramatic lines. In “Homes of the and Present” Ella Butler Evans in- terestingly describes two famous colonial houses, Meadow Garden and Chateau le Vert. John D. Barry writes on “The Stage as a Career for Women'" and the article is strikingly illustrated. Mr. Frank French gives the second and last part of his en- tertaining “‘Reminiscences of New England Life. “Track Athletics for Women,” by Christine Terhune Herrick, presents some novel features of sports in which women are interested. Mrs. Theodore W. Birney usses “Childhood,” a subject concern- | ing which she is eminently fitted to write. The fashions are presented in their usual attractive and timely form and the holiday display in the shops is illustrated and de- scribed. “The Hair; Its Care and Dress- ing,” should clalm the attention of women. For the children there appears the first of the “What Happened Then" stories by Grace MacGowan Cooke, and the usual pastimes, & natural history sketch, etc. The pages of illustrated cookery portray a decided movelty in a Chinese dinmer. Mrs. Margaret Hall begins in this number a serles of “Practical Talks to Young Housekeepers,” and the departments pre- serve thelr usual degree of interest and excellence. Miss Violet Oakley, who designed the covers in color for the Christmas numbers of The Century and St. Nicholas, is well | known for her work in stained gl and decorative painting. Her principal work of this sort is in the Church of Al Angels, on West End avenue and Eighty- first street, New York City. She has, however, done much other eccleslastical decoration in color. She recently received a commission to decorate a room in the new capitol at Harrisburg, Pa, for which bullding Mr. Edwin A. Abbey also is to make decorations.

If Thomas had not hap- pened along it is doubtful it they would have succeeded, for Horton is a powerful fighter and had arrived at the fighting stage of his jag. STRIKERS’ HEARING BEGINS Testimony Taken from Shop Employes Seems to Be Rather In- definite Hearing of testimony In the case of the attachment against Unlon Pacific strikers, \/charging certain of the latter with viola- tions of the federal court injunction, wa: begun before Judge Munger in the federal court yesterday afterncon at 3 o'clock, | the case having been postponed over two weeks. Four witnesses were examined All of these were strike breakers employed There is an army of witnesses to testity and, as a large number of them are unable to readily understand the language, there is every indication that the hearing may be pro- longed indefinitely. John N. Baldwin, who is conducting the railroad's side of the af- fair, sald he hoped to get through with the witnesses In two days. C. J. Smyth of Smyth & Smith, attorneys for the strikers, was in charge of the latter's interests yes- terday. The first witness yesterday was Joseph a mere bagatelle compared to the produc- tion. | As a mere matter of sentiment,” he, | gress could do that would have such a fine effect on the Filipino as to establish more intimate trade relations. It would | remove the impression that Americans are | there to exploit the islands and not give | them the benefit of American markets.

Turning to the Philippine currency, he urged authority for the commission to issue | temporary certificates of indebtedness re- deemable in gold. HOW SOCIETY IS DEVELOPED | Prot. Ira W. Howerth's lecture in the First | Congregational church yesterday evening. He sald in part: ““There are two schools of social philos- | ophy, one holding that all of our soclal dificulties will be remedied by the gradual and inevitable advancement of soclety due to evolution; the other, urging the neces- sity of hastening the solution of our so- clal problems by intelligent concerted a tion. “The idea that nature alome will take care of all soclal difficulties that beset mankind, and that any attempt to order soclal life in accordance with a precon- celved plan can only result in making mat- ters worse, is due to the recognized fact of unconsclous evolution In the past. “The theory of natural selection applies as well to the development of socleties as to the production of animal forms. The principles underlying social evolution are the eame as those upon which the theory of natural selection is based, namely, val atlon, heredity and the struggle for exis ence. Thus we have what many are dis- posed to look upon as an unchangeable law, that whenever one race comes in contact with another the tendency is towards the suppression or the elimination of the weaker race. It is the old law of the sur- vival of the fittest. This law, however, it should be observed, Is » law of nature and not/a law of mind. In the artificial selec- tion practiced In developing domestic anl- mals the natural law s counteracted. It is equally possible to counteract that law so far as it applies to the development of nations. “‘Soclety today then has opportunity, by taking its evolution into its own hands and making it consclious, to eliminate the in- ordinate waste and destruction, to prevent the loss which is likely to take place of what has already been gained In human history, and to determine soclal destiny. The idea that the destiny of a nation is in- dependent of the conduct of its people is not worth a moment’s consideratiol Soclal forces are subject to the same possibliities of regulation as natural forces. It is true that governmental Interference in matters industrial, religious and social has pro- duced generally more harm than good. But this need not necessarily be the case. The great soclal question then really is, whether soclety 1s to be left to drift listlessly along or whether the people are to regard so- clety as the legitimate object of art and make it as superior to what it is now as the artificial products of the fleld and gard are to those which nature alone produce: LOVE AND SOLDIER CLOTHES / How & Vivandier = & Doughboy Mixed Things Up and Made Trouble. | There was a deal of tears and mutual re- proach on the occasion of the arrest of “Sergeant” Lou Clements last night through complaint of Private Harry Hop- kins of Company F, Twenty-second in- fantry. The prisoner is a vivandier who has attached herself to the regiment at Fort Crook and is called “sergeant” by the men. It seems that lately she left the reservation and came to the city. While at liberty Hopkins visited the ‘“sergeant” bere and she was so loath to have him de- part for the post yesterday that she se- creted his forage cap and fur gloves when he spoke of leaving. Hgpkins found a campaign hat belonging to the woman of the regiment and departed for his post. The company sergeant, however, demanded that the government property be secured and, as Lou refused to deliver the good: she arrested. After a tearful confer- ence at the police station she gave up the gloves and cap and Hopkins promised to re- turn the campaign hat. Ends H Turtare. Lazy livers and sluggish bowels cause beadaches.

To show their appreciation of the cour- tesles extended lodge 631, Elks of Council Blufts, by Manager Reiter upward of 150 members attended the Orpheum last night in a body and made the nucleus of the largest and most enthusiastic audlence of the week. With their usual wholesouled manner the wearers of the antlers showed how *“the best people on earth" make “Elks’ night” at the theater a gala occa- sion and encouraged the performers with graclous demonstrations of delight. Man- ager Reiter was called for by the visitors during intermission and forced to face the multitude from the stage. He declined to make a speech beyond a brief expression of thanks. He told his latest story, with the usual uproarious result.

After nine years of a most successful ca- reer the Corn Belt, a monthly issued by the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, has sus- pended publication. This was announced Tuesday by John Francis, general passenger agent of the B. & M. road. But one reason Is assigned for the Corn Belt's retirement, that being that it has fulfilled its mission. The Corn Belt was founded under extra- ordinary conditions to perform a remarka- ble task and it therefore has filled a unique place in progressive raliroad advertising. The paper came into existence during the period of financial depres: about 1893, as a champion of Nebraska's interest. Its | prime object was to ald in establishing the | state in the right light in the e where { 1t had been brought into invidious compari- | sons with other states during that crucial period. Naturally the Burlington was look- ing for effective means of advertising | own Interests and found in this little peri- odical just what was wanted.

Mr. Barnum ends a career of twelve years with the Union Pacific. Mr. Thompeon has been with the company less than a year.
