The death of General Sherman has awakened
fresh interest in his Personal Memoirs, first
given to the world some fifteen years ago,
which will be met by q new and revised edi-
ton Of that entertaining work, recently iss ued.
General Sherman's unique personality and
crisp piquant style always secured during his
life time the widest attention for everything he
sal or wrote. but his own story of his expert
ences and observations. and particularly those
connected with the late war, will be read for
his personal views and the side lights il throws
upon that great tragedy long after those who
participated in it have passed away.
Mrs. Eliza N. Blair, wife of the senator from
New Hampshire, has for some time been en-
gagged upon and has now nearly completed a
story entitled Elizabeth the Puritan" portray
ing life in New England a generation or two
ago, which will shortly be published, probably
by a Boston publisher. Mrs. Blair is wen
known in Washington Is q lady OF keen OBJ
servation and fine literary taste. with peculiar
qualifications for any work involving the pre-
sentation of local color and analyses of New
England character and chara cteristics. There
can hardly be doubt therefore that the book
will score success.

Chicago Women Propose to Take Part
In the School Election.
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-At the coming
election in November superintendent
of schools is to be chosen, and today
was the day of registration for that
event. Applications for registration
by women were very numerous,
especially in the fashionable districts
and they came well posted on the law
and methods of procedure in registra-
tion under the statute said to be in
their favor, passed by the last
legislature. In some places the boards
of registration declined to receive
their names. In others their names
were put upon the registry books, with
all of the blanks filed, except that
stating whether or not person is quail
fled voter. This leaves the ladies
fighting chance at the polls-a chance
they say they propose to take the fullest
possible advantage Of In the suburban
towns many women's names were put
upon the register. In the aristo-
cratic circles of Evanston, the
members of the board of registration
did not appear at the polling place, and
about one hundred prominent ladies
met and formulated statement, setting
forth the facts. In the city formal
protest against the refusal of registry
was made before the election commits
sioners, by two ladies who propose to
make test case.

officer, belonging to the squadron in the
port, and Russian band master. No
arms can be purchased in Vladivostock,
and those who have weapons keep them

fears an attack from the convicts. The

by giving the escapes clothes, he will
