In Defiance of the King. A Romance OF
the American Revolution by Chauncey
G. Hotchkiss opens with Lexington and
Concord and details the early complica-
tions of Tory and colonial patriot Po-
litical intrigue, bold spy, disloyalty III
the home circle in the person OF a woman
in the family life itself adds excitement
to the tale, which is very spirited and
excellenbly constructed. The style and
English of the book are thoroughly good
The battles fought in and about Groton,
Mass. are finely reproduced, and we sus-
pect that not only are the public charac-
tiers of the story real people but also some
of the participants in private life though

Snowbird and the Water-Tiger, ana
other Fairy Tales By Margaret Comp
ton, with frontispiece in color and full
page illustrations aud decorative cover
designs by Walter @. Greenough. New
York: Dodd, Mead & Co. From the
Publisher. Price 81. 00). 1t surely were
time that we had collection of fairy
tales founded on the folklore of the abor-
igines of our own land. And if it has
been a neglected field the delightful sur
prise of the treasure-trove which the au-
thor of Snowbird and the Water Tiger
has discovered for US is all the creator.
For the tales, which 1agoo, the story tell
er of the Indians has written down for
the little pale-faces we have hearty well
come They are tales of fairies, the
giants, the dwarfs, the witches and the
magicians that dwelt in our America.
II India has it's jungle Book, we can
now boast of our own American Indian
Book with it's wonders of bird and beast
and savage which are as refreshing and
marvellous in their revelations of natural
simplicity and upernaturalism, as any
contributions to the folklore of p rimi-
tive peoples which we have read. For
they are not pure imagination; the au-
thor has delyed into the Government
records of early American Indian life and
has consulted the report of several au-
thorities for the material upon which
these fairy tales are founded. Mr.. Green
ough's pencil has contributed pictorically
to the value of the work and his illus
trations throw large suggestion and fer
tile fancy into the tales which help them
to appeal moro strongly to the imagina-
ton.

Ohio certainly has one very merce-
nary or very stupid clergyman. His name
is Hoeffer and he is running for repre-
sentative to the legislature. Recently a
letter has made it's appearance in the
campaign bearing his signature in which
be is made to say that he will vote for
Senator Brice or any other Democrat for
United States Senator for $780, Hoeffer
admits the genuineness of his signature
but claims that he signed the letter in
blank and that some wicked person after
wards filed in the text. That is he &C
quits himself of dishonesty by pleading
guilty to the grossest stupidity.

1t is pretty safe to assume that pupllc
sentiment in England is just as much
opposed to trouble between Eng land and
the United States as it is in this country.
Nothing but most serious cause Woula
justify the English government IN tine
opinion of the people i'll hazardlng con :
fiict with us, and the same is the case
with our government. There are the
strongest reasons why both countries
should want to live on terms OF amlty.
They speak the same language and their
governments, though differing in form,
are very closely allied in substance. Their
commercial relations are SO intimate and
so vast that conflict between them
would do both tremendous damage. The
men who guide the governments of both
of them know this. the people whom they
represent understand it, and hence we
can safely assume that only the most
serious of causes will bring about any
breaking off of amicable relations. While
the two nations do not love one another
very deeply, yet there are very strong
motives of policy impelling both of the
to keep the peace and live in harmony
These facts are to be kept in view
when specializing concerning the outcome
Of the Venezuela dispute From motives
Of policy England will be very reluctant
to take any action in that matter that
will seriously affrort the United States.
Her newspapers may sheer at the Mon
roe doctrine and her statesmen may say
that it is no part of international law,
but we may be certain that any actor
