THE BUILDERS OF AMERICAN LIrERA-
as textbook and Of
real value to the general reader is this
volume from the pen OF Francis 81. Under
wood. LID. The author has as his
groundwork a volume published twenty
years ago. In the latter, however, in ad-
dition to biographical sketches and critical
of their writings. He has now, after the
lapse of two decades, revised the notices
of authors and largely added to the list,
tut has omitted the specimens of style.
The result is very satisfactory. The criti-
cisms OF the authors are not confined to
their works, but their personality comes
in for a share of comment. To the au-
thor's credit be it said these comments are
generally Just and in good taste. Occa-
sionally an oversight is nOted as in the
notice of Joseph ROdman Drake, where
no reference is made to his address to
the American Flag" which will be re-
mem bered and recited long after his "Crl-
prit Fay" is forgotten. The present vol
ume ends with authors born before 1896
Another is promised treating of our au-
thors who have entered upon the worldly
stage since that time. 1t is in this volume,
as DR.. Underwood rather naively remarks,
that the real difficulty is to come. The
merits and dement's Of the elder auth ors
have been by this time passed upon, but to
treat of those now prominent will demand
OF the critic fresh studies, will open before
him new horizons and lead to the evolution
of new principles. DR.. Underwood. in

SEVERE TESTOF SEAMANSHIP.
The First Game to Be Played on
Closing Day by Teams of Three
Yachts Each.

Polo has been played on horseback, in
canoes and swimming. but it has taken
the Encinal Boat Club of Alameda to con-
ceve new way to handle the game.
This time it is done by yachts. which
will have to depend on the wind for their
propelling power. The game under their
rules can be played by from one to three
yachts on side.
The field of battle will he between two
goal lines not less than 900 feet apart,
which must cross the probable tide and
wind so as to give neither side an ad-
vantage, but to be greater distance if in
the Judgment of the referee il be advisable.
The goal line is defined by floating flag
at one side and a judges boat at the other.
The opposite goal is the same. except that

goal who, upon the ball crossing the line,
shall hoist flag. when gun shall be fred
from shore for all the yachts to take DO
siton for the next inning.
In the event of the ball in any way get
ting outside of the area between goal
points the judge will hoist flag and gun
from shore will call the yachts back to
their respective goals, and the inning start
again.
In case man should fall overheard. the
judges boat will pick him up, or, if he is
lucky enough, he will board the first yacht
that comes along. These are the rules
under which the game is played, and the
prospects are that it will undoubtedly be
very exciting.
