by B. West Clinedinst, and decorative de-

numerous grammatical lapses in the work,
pardonable, perhaps, in college-bred
author, but the description of the football
game is the perfection of technology.

see any future for the Islands save in the
elevation to the throne of the ex-heir-
apparent, Kaiulani. His letters are mere
arraignments of the Dole Government, and
are written with heat that does not in
spire confidence in the business of his esti-
mates. Nevertheless, they present a side of
the subject in hand that American people
are interested in knowing, and while we yet
await the history, by an impartial observer,
of the past three years in Hawaii, it is not
quite fair to condemn Captain Palmer's
work as certain too-zealous annexationists
are inclined to do. Boston: Lee &c Shep-

A Life of James G.. Blaine,

The principal feeling produced in the
reader by Gail Hamilton's Biography of
James G. Blaine" is one of disappoint-
ment. There is a certain degree of interest
attaching to all human life. The biography
of Hottentot villager might be made
work of moment. That of great states
man, whose period of activity extended
over a crucial epoch in a Nations ex-
istence, should be study of life itself
for the reader. But with an abund-
ance of material from which to
draw, and with one of the great
est and most magnetic personalities
this century has seen for a subject, the
biographer yet fails to show us the man.
The book bears internal evidences of
having been made to order. There is a
brief history of the Galbralth and the Blaine
families, and chapter devoted to the
early education of the hero of the book, but
so loosely is the work done that one must
needs wade through pages of irrelevances,
almost of incoherencies, to get few bare
details of Blaine's youth. There are great
many letters in the volume that
are of interest and value as showing us
intimate gimpses of the statesman, but
even these are frequently presented in
such manner as nearly to defeat the end
they are designed to serve They are
given piecemeal, oftentimes the recipient
is designated merely by an initial, and in
some instances letters which are not from
but about Mr. Blaine are inserted with no
clew as to who the writer is or for whom
the communication is intended.
All this makes difficult and not particu-
larly satisfactory reading, and even the
great interest attaching to Mr.. Blaine him
self does not extend in the readers mind
to the uninteresting comments of unknown
parties upon the circumstances of his daily
life
The letters, however, constitute the sole
glimpses at the home life and surround
ings of one OF the most notable of Ameri-
can statesmen. The last chapter of the
book is written by Harriet Prescott Spot

Recent Fiction.

THE DIsAGREEABLE WoMAN.-It hardly
needs the authors acknowledgment of the
fact to attribute the inspiration of this
book to Miss Harraden's "Ships That
Pass in the Night" The source Of the
tale is obvious. But while the disagree
able man of Miss Harraden's story is liv-
ing human creature whose personality we
recognize, the human pathos and kinship
of whose life we feel, the disagreeable
woman of Julian STAIRS tale is merely an
indifferently well constructed puppet,
whose origin is perfectly patent. The
author pulls a string and she Jerks. He
shrouds her in mystery that is wholly un-
called for. From first to last it is impossi-

other Men Fishcd Blank.
Charles Grant had Il great and well
deserved reputation for finding IL fish in
water which other mon had tished blank.
This was partly because, from long IA
miliarity with the river, he knew all
the hkeliest casts, partly because he was
sure to have at the end of his casting
line just the proper fly for the size Of
water and condition of weather, and
partly because of his quiet, neat handed
manner of dropping his line on tho WA
ter. There is il story still current Gu
Speysde illustrative of this gift of
Charlie in finding Il fish where people
who rather fancied themselves had fail
ed-a story which Jamie Shanlls to this
day does not care to hear. Mr. Russell of
The Scotsman had done his very best
from the quick run ut tho top of the
pool of Dalbreck, down to tho almost
dead still water at the bottom of that
fine stretch, and had found no luck.
Jamie Shanks, who was with Mr..
Russell as his fisherman, had gone over
it to no purpose with fresh fly. They
were grumpishly discussing whether
they should giyeDalbreck another turn,
or go OH TO Pool-o- Brock, the next pool
down stream, when Charles Grant made
his appearance and asked the watcrside
question. 'What lucli:' .No luck at
all, Charlien' was Russel's answer.
''Deevil Il rise - was Shanks' sourer re-
ply. In his demure, purring way Charles
Grant, who, i'll his manner, was a du-
plicate of the lato Lord Granville, re-
marked, 'Therc ousht to be fish como
out of that pool. TAX him out,
then !" exclaimed Shanks gruffiy
"Well, III try, quoth the soft spoken
Charlie. and just at that spot, about 40
yards from the head of the pool, where
the current slackens and the fish lie
awhile before breasting the upper rapid,
he hooked Il fish. Then it was that Rus
sci, i'll the genial manner which made
provosts swear, remarked, "Shanks, /

Shanks sullenly. "To learn to fish, - re-
