LITERATURE.

THE WONDERLANDs OF THE WILD WEST
With sketches of the Mormons BY A b.
Carlton, late chairman of the Utah commits
sion. illustrated, Price, % Salt Lake
George Q. Cannon Sons Company.
Judge Carlton began writing this book
when he was member of the Utah COM
mission, gathering the material from per-
sonal observations and mingling with the
people of whom he writes. 1t is needless
to remark that the book will be found full
OF interest to the people of this territory,
for while there are chapters devoted to de-
scriptions of scenery between the Missouri
river and the Pacific ocean, the $50 pages
are practically devoted to accounts of the
Mormons and their long and determined
contest with the laws. The author dis
cusses that hum bug institution, the Utah
commission, tells of meetings in
Mormon pharmacies and meeting houses
writes of the towns and cities throughout
the territory; of the leading members of
the church and their utterances; of church
conferences and what was said; of Nor
mon feasts, balls and receptions: of things
that struck him as humorous, and of others
that were terribly grave; he Incorporates
the several anti polygamy laws and the
circulars issued by the commission, and
adds an appendix containing the articles
of faith of the Mormon church, the famous
manifesto by President Woodruff, a letter
from Captain John Goldman, and other
matter relating to the contest which has
been brought so near to a termination
The author has evidently written in a
spirit OF fairness and with a desire TO state
facts. The book is handsomely printed,
is profusely illustrated, and is neatly
bound, making a very attractive, as well
as an interesting work

AMER 1IA,AiZED.

That is the title the publishers have
given the work just issued from tbs
press under the name of the Ameri-
oanized Encyclopedia Britannica.
The Americanized is based on the
original and ninth edition of that
world-famed work, the Encyclopedia
Britannica. The points Of difference
in the two works are: First, the Eng
glish edition, published all the way
from five to twenty years ago, has be-
come out Of date. The Americanized
Encyclopedia Britannica has brought
every subject treated of in the original
work down to date, making it of more
practical use to the American reader
who isinterested in American subjects,
than the English work itself, which,
being compiled by Engishmen for the
Use Of Englishmen, neglected Ameri-
can subjects, and in q great many
cases did not mention them at all.
Second-The English edition does
not mention the name OF any living
person, no matter how noted they
are. The Americanized Encyclo-
p@dia Britannica more than makes
this omission good by adding nearly
1000 new biographies of living men
and women; also including those re-
Gently deceased whose names will be
handed down III history.
To illustrate the difference, the
English edition devotes over sig col
umns to an English county, and but
three-quarters Of q column to an
American State. The Americanized
Encyclopedia Britannica reverges this
order by giving the six columns of
space to the American State and the
three-fourths Of q column to the
English county.
You are more interested about
American matters than you are about
English, aren't you? Well, if you look
up the English edition you will find
an exhaustive treatise on Birming-
ham, England, and whep YOU look for
Birmingham, Alabama, an American
city of over 10000 population, the
English edition doesn't even mention
it.
Well, it eeems that the Encycloa
pedia Britannica should be AMER.
IcANIzED And that is just wing
the publishers HAYS done. They he
taken the Encyclopedias Britannica &c
pieces, as it were, and remodeled for
the American reader, the whole work
being brought down to date.

AmericaniEed Encyclopedias Britain

ADVENTURES OF A FAIR REBEL By Matt
Grim. New York: Charles l.. Webster Co.
The war has called out many excellent
stories, that awful struggle furnishing
much rich material for the clever story
writers. Among the most interesting of
these romances is that of the "Fair Rebel. -
AS one reads it he is forced to the conclu-
sion that the author must have obtained the
facts by participation in the incidents max
ing up the tale. The heroine is a young
girl who, with her uncle, removed from
North Carolina to Georgia during the
second year of the war. En- route she meets
young union officer, nurses him after a
wound at Chickamauga, and of course
loves him desperately. She believes he is
dead, however, but finally they come to-
gether and are hurriedly married at night
in Atlanta when Sherman is pressing tho
city, the lover having stolen into town to
persuade his grandfather to flee from the
wrath to come. Tho descriptions are vivid
in the extreme, and the situations dramatic
and realistic.

Chestnut streets. A large and tastefully
decorated tree occupied the most cOnspic

light of all. Mr.. Gus Albers, in whose
hands the violin seems TO be alive, rem
dered several very charming solos, and
won the admiration of all. After all of

liner sased. A farewell hymn closed the
entertainment and all went home having
