From the Shenandoah Herald OF Progress.
The Anniversary Edition of The RoA-
NoKE TIMES, of date September 80, leads
all the efforts we have seer attempted
in Virginia in that particular line. This
issue of THE TIMES consists of twenty
four pages, is finely illustrated and
very handsomely printed. Its matter
is Of absorbing interest to every person
interested in Virginia progress and de-
velopment, and the typographical work
reflects great credit upon the artists
who produced it. THE TIMES is rapidly
taking rank as one of the great papers
of this country, and we extend our warm
congratulations to "the right bower of
THE TINES on this very successful
effort, possibly "the greatest effort Of
his life" As the Herald has no ac-
quaintance with tho balance Of the staff,
VIC refrain FROM personal reference to
them. But we feel sure Pugh had
hand in this excellent piece of work.
Success, we say to THE TINES. to Roa-
noke, and to our grand old Common
wealth.

From the appearance of it's advertising

Of the race tracks about New York city,
but there are some that attract less at
tention than a tall. sweet-faced young
lady of slight figure who invariably dress
es In black surah. She goes quietly
about her business, occasionally visiting
the betting rings TO see what odds are

She is an actress, or rather was up to
about two seasons ago, and her name Is
Miss Trellis Wood. Her last engagement
was with Mckee Rankin's Golden

of her ever going on the stage again. for
the turf has been a golden Mecca to her.
Miss Wood lives quietly in a prettily-
furnished flat on the west side OF the city,

following to say about how she came to
play the races: My little boy. Marshall

A Romance by Morris.

"THE STORY OF THE GLITTERING
PLAIN" by WILLIAM NORRIS. Re
printed in fac simile. $50. Roberts
Bros.
All who enjoyed "The House of the
Wolflngs" can now sit down to a further
delight of the same kind in "The Story of
the Glittering Plain" which has also been
called "The Land of the Living Men; or
the Acre of the Undying." This is a tale
of love and adventure; the story of Hall
blithe, who is of the House of the Raven,
md his betrothed, who is called the
Hostage Of the House of the Rose, and the
vii things that befell them; how the
Hostage was stolen away; how Hallblithe
SET out to find her; how he visited the Isle
of Ransom, where dwelt the robbers of
the sea; thence to the Glittering Plain,
and back again to the Isle of Ransom,
where the Puny Fox helps him to find the
Hostage; and lastly, how Hallblithe and
his love, together with the Puny Fox, re-
turned to the House of the Raven and to
Cleveland by the sea, and dwelt there in
peace ever after.
So romantic, so purely imaginative and
near TO poetry is the story, that when one
remembers other tales in rhyme by Mr..
Morris one cannot help regretting that he
did not give to this story the added charm
of a rhyme-setting. Once or twice in the
book he treats the reader to song, but il
is hardly good one. The prose is better
and seems to have restrained him in his
ong-nights by reason of his own poetic
and rhythmical qualities: it is prose
which sings itself Like "The House of
the Wolfings" the book is printed in an
attractive style, the English edition being
printed by the author from type of hS
own design. The American edition is re-
printed in fac-simile, and has been limited
to five hundred copies. IL is hand some
book, and il contains beautiful story.
