Savage Writes of | “Men and Women.' ‘The Heritage” is the title of Burton | Stevenson's latest movel. The scene {s | ald in Ohio a few years after the revo lution, and the hero takes part fin &t Clalr's {ll-starred expedition sgainet the | India; He is taken prisoner #nd hell eaptive for three years, but escapes and afterward joins General Wayne in the vie torfous attack at Fallen Timbers.

Clair, “Mad Anthony” Wayne and young Willlam Harrison appear as prominent | eharacters in the tale. Published by Houghton, Miffiin & Co. We have received from Harper & Bros. | “The Reign of Queen Anne” in two vol- | umes. This history of the life and times of Queen Anne is a- very fitting introduc tory volume to the series of Justin M Carthy's popular histories of England, her | men, manners and cvents. The age of Queen Anae s one of the most brilliant periods of English history—the time of Addison, Swift, Steele and Bolingbroke The McCarthy histories begin, in point of time, with the life of Angc; then follows a history of the four Georges and of William IV and ends with Queen Victoria's golden Jubilee. | “'A Doffed Coronet,” an illustrated novel | published by Harpers, is truth under the | guise ot fiction, written by the popular au- | thor of “The Martyrdom of an Empress” | and “The Tribulations ot a Princess.” The opening scenes of the book are laid in Egypt during the period following the Arabi | Pasha rebellion, when Calro was a hotbed | of international intrigue and of diplomatic | strife, and in this the author and her hus- | band play an active and Interesting part. The volume teems with marvelous descrip- tions of an Egypt completely unknown to the general public, and includes peeps into the princely harems of Cairo and a faith- | ful portrayal of the intimate side of the khedival court written in a glowing, bril- | © lant and witty manner worthy of Plerre | Loti himself. After suffering great finan- | cfal reverses, the young couple establish themselves in America, where they are temporarily reduced to the ranks of the | tollers. From this moment on the book | becomes a continuously clever and ex- | tremely amusing account of how a woman born and bred In the highest stratum of | the European great world may cheerfully and gracefully adapt herself to the sordid | exigencies of poverty, conquer them and | bring her arduous task to a satisfactory conclustor. “Men and Women,” by Minot J. Savage, 1s the title of an attractive volume deal- ing with the ethical phases of the relation of men and women. The book is pub- lished by the American Unitarlan associa- ton. Dr. Savage discusses the respective parts that men and women play in the or- anization of soclety, their individual re- sponsibilitics and duties, their relations to each other and to their children, Involving also the further questions of divorce and of women's growing independence. , The book 18 of vital importance and of perma- nent Interest, tracing, as it does, tho suc- cessive steps from love and marriage through the va:ious influences and opportu- nities which, rightly used, lead to the ideal home and all the noble influences for good which emanate therefrom. Lillan Whiting, who is best known to the world at large as the author of “The World "HE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNE Beautitul,” in her latest book, “Boston Days,” has affned to crystallize into literary record the unique phases and exeeptional movements which have stamped their im- press upon the city of the Puritans, and without attempting to eatalogue all of the authors, living or dead, who have lived in and about Boston, she comments on the careers of those persons who have given the ety its present position and prestige in the world of letters. Doston, says Miss Whiting, 1s essentially “the eity of beau- tiful {deals, It is a fact so remarkable as to be unparalleled in the bistory of any na- | tion that so large a number of eminent per- sons should bo born within a period of hardly more than twenty years in or near one city, all of whom should be drawn to by some epiritual magnetism, as the enc 1o be identificd with their work and 1t Of those who were Included in the emarkable group which Mise Whiting ealls | a constellation of the nineteenth century whose {lluminaticn not faded as one by ! {one they have nearly all passed to the | sflent land,” there remain but Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, Mre.

MAN AND HIS ENVIRONMENT Dr. Vincent Expoun old the Doctrine of the “New Social Philosophy” to Large Audience, An audience, numerically somewhat stronger than has been the average at- tendance on the university extension lect- ures of the course on modern social ‘prob- lems, listened with appreciation last night | in the First Congregational church to orge E. Vincent, Ph. D., whose subject, “The New Soclal Philosophy,” concludes the series. Mr. Vincent began with a scoffer’s defin- ition of philosophy, and explained at length, with concrete illustrations, the two antagonistic schools of philosophy of former years—the individualistic and the soclalistic, the former of which held that man, the individual, rose entirely by kis own superiority and was individually re- sponsible, and only pooled certaln interests with soclety because of the advantages of combination, for which he was willing to sacrifice certain personal liberties; and the latter, of which Spencer was the principal exponent, which held that man was simply the product of soclety and insisted on the theory of interdependence. He then explained the more modern the- ory, of which Prof. James was the first ex- pounder, and which analyzes the conscious- ness of man under the terms imitation and invention, “According to this school every person is largely the product of the group within which he has passed the formative perfod. Man imitates what he sees in others, so that all units of one group are largely identical. But there is also In every mind the power of Invention, and this is what makes the slight difference between each person and all others. In some invention scarcely exists, in others it is comparatively broad. Man is usually not antagonistic to society, and 1s com- monplace; but sometimes a pérson stands out against it and iasists on his individu- uch & ome is a criminal or a in $!

Some explanation is necessary to a proper understanding of the figures as given, from the fact that the properties are not all assessed in lump sums. The Paxton & Gallagher company, for example, will pay taxes on a valuation of $375,000, of which $108,000 represents real estate; Hayden Bros.' department store will pay upon a valuation of $432,500, of which $225,- 000 represents real estate and $207,500 mer- chandise, and J. L. Brandeis & Sons will pay upon a valuation of $239,500, of which $72,000 s real estate, $150,000 merchandise and $37,500 the banking business. The M. B. Smith company, which appears to head the list in personal property, has no real estate and, therefore, pays alto- gether upon $312,000, the valuation of its merchandise alone. The W. R. Bennett department store includes several depart- ments owned by different corporations and taxed separately, but these when added to- gether make an assessment on merchandise alone of more than $160,000.

At the second day's session of the evan- gelistic conference of the Presbyterian churches of the Omaha synod the morning was devoted principally to a consideration of “Topics for Evangelistic Meetings,” and i “Following Up Evangelistic Meetings.” 1 Under the first subject Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman referred to the uecessity for | judgment in the selection of topics, and | sa1d that ir he were to plan a ten days'| | series of meetings he would devote the first | | six days to sermons to Christians, preach- ing in a veln which would excite their in- terest in the work and sympathy with the evangelist. The remainder of the time would be devoted to preaching such as | would bring conviction to the sinner, a desire for repentance and s decision as to | his future life. The speaker and the min- isters in the conference then suggested texts which may be used on such occasions. Under the second topic was discussed the | course of the ministers and the older mem bers of the church toward the persons who Join the church as the result of the even- gelistic effort. These persons are cut off in a measure from former associates and surroundings and are entering upon a phase of life vew o (hew. They should be en- | couraged, but, withal, permitted to exercise their own strength rather than be coddled The Presbyterian evangelistic conference, which has been in session in this city for the past few days, closed Tuesday evening, when the last meeting was held in the First Presbyterian church.
