ASSAULT AND BATTERY.
Uncle and Nephew Each Prefer
Charges Against the Other.


The Italian colony was the scene Of
quite little excitement lately, and as
a result several arrests have been made
and charges have been preferred. The
trouble took place at boarding house
kept by Joe Rega, who has for one Of
his boarders his nephew. named Nicho-
las Vincenza.
Nicholas proved refractory and
caused a scene. aIter which each man
went to an alderman ana had the other
arrested. Each claimed that an as
sault had been made on him. Rega say
ing that his nephew had dislocated his
thumb, and that he was In the habit
of carrying concealed weapons. Vim

wanted him placed under bonds.

the pair concluded to settle the matter
among themselves and were dis
charged.

Some idea OF their character may be gained by
the imaginative reader who mentally conjures
up, say one of DaniePs visions picturing the
destruc ton of the cosmos, and then endeavors
10 transfer the same to paper. The artists

creation.
1t is simply worse than useless to attempt

taln-all have peculiarities of speech that call
ior Interpretation. The modern dictionary
has proved equal to the demands made upon it.
we have said that the dictionary is an en-
cyciopedia on small scale. There exists no
subject not covered in its pages, and that in q
manner acceptable even to the specialist. The
carefully compiled and illustrated modern
dictionary will give the meaning of every
word in all its aspects. Cases are on record
where it has been produced before the highest
courts OF the land in elucidation of q point.
II, then, the modern dictionary is grateful to
the specialist how much is its value increased
in the hands OF the reader deprived OF access
to students library?
Now, as to the best method of using die
uonary, we can think of none better than
the one practiced in English and European
colleges. There work of reference is en-
ployed IN conjunction with what is called
commonplace" book. An ordinary ruled
or exercise book viii answer the purpose
very well. In this should be jotted down
every word or phrase that is in the slightest
degree obscure search of the dictionary
should then be made and the meaning OF the
word in its various aspects noted.
twill be seen that the powers OF the die
tfonary as an educator can be very much ex-
tended by the simple method herein recon-
mended. This system is one that was adopted
with much success by the late George Augustus
Sala. AT his death complete library OF

ADVENTURES IN THE NORTHWEST

RICK DALE. By Kirk Munroe. New York:

NJ. richardson; cloth, price s. rs.
In this story of the Northwest coast Kirk
Munroe introduces new character among his
active boys in Rick Dale, the hero. In the
course of the stirring events in which he
figures Rick meets with several persons with
whom the readers of .sSnow Shoes and
Sledges'' and "The Fur-Seal's Tooth are al
ready familiar. Rick is the son of rich parents,
who have always treated him as if he were
hothouse plant. He finally rebels at this,
and when he is started off on a tour around
the world, in the care of tutor, he takes
"French leave at Victoria, Vancouver. There
he meets Bonny Brooks, who has run away
from ship on which he had been apprenticed
as cabin-boy, and the two start.awav 70 explore
the world. They have all sorts of thrilling ad-
ventures with sailors, smugglers, revenue off,
GERS and Indians; they become guide and in
terpreter for a French botanist; they get lost
in the mountains OF British Colum bia; they
fall into the hands of a mad hermit and barely
escape with their lives; they obtain work in a
logging camp, and at length everything turns
out well for the boys and Rick Dale goes to

NEW AND CHEAP EDITION

RANCH LIFE AND THE HUNTING TRAIL.
by Theodore Roosevelt, with Illustrations by
Frederic Remington. New and popular edition.
New York; The century Company: price So So
Although Mr.. Roosevelt is still young man,
his life has been particularly full one Aside
from his official career, in which he has held
several very important positions, he has been
ranchman on the frontier, hunter of
mighty game, and successful author in q
number of different lines. One of his most
popular books, the sumptuous "Ranch Life
and the Hunting Trail" has been out of print
for some time, and now q new and
cheaper edition is brought out Few persons
who have lived the actual life of the ranch
man have had the ability to describe its dra-
matte and picturesque phases; most accounts
have been written by mere tourists and on
lockers. Mr.. Roosevelt was working ranch,
summer and winter, during the days of excit-
ing frontier tragedies. He was thrown into
daily contact with the border desperadoes and
the Indians. 1t is this unconventional life
that he describes and he has also given
chapters on mountain and prairie hunting,
and the pursuit of the wapiti, the big-horn
sheep and the white goat of the high peaks
Many of Mr.. Remington's most admired
pictures are in this volume.

edge OF the Old Testament than is at present
to be gained in the Sunday-schooL He has
taken up each of its books, dissected them and
furnished for use with each q mum Der OF yalu-
able suggestions as to the best method OF study.
To this there has been added a series of qnes-
tions with the object of testing the readers
knowledge of his subject after studying the
same. The main idea has been carried out in
connection with the now well and favorably
known Chautauquan system OF education.
The scheme thus carried out by DR.. Berkowitz
is commendable one. for the reason that, as
he notes in introducing the present volume,
the Bib.e is to many a sealed book, acknowl-
ICED as classic, but kept unopened from one
years end TO the other. That there is to-day
renaissance in the study OF the Bible and in
higher Biblical criticism is evidenced by the
large number of works on the subject is
sued from both American and English publish
ing houses. In this connection Professor
Richard G. Moulton's ''Modern Readers BIZ
BILE will be remem bered, and 1t is satisfactory
10 note that the able professors work is rec
commended and indorsed by DR.. Berkowitz for
those who desire to follow Mr. Moultons ap-
plication of his literary treatment TO the vari-
Gus Biblical books.

erick A. stokes g. Co. For sale at the Em-
porium Book Department; price 81 25.
The approach of the Christmas holidays is
the signal for publishers 10 commence work
on books suitable for presentation to the
young. 'Little Men and Maids is very
credi BILE effort in this direction. The read
ing matter, both prose and verse; is of such q
character as to be readily understandable to
the most dlminutiye intellect; and the colored
full-page pictures will also be the delight of
the season TO the tots of America. The color
ing in these latter leaves nothing to be de-
sired, and serves to show that in fine art work
American prin ters are at least the equals of
their German competitors.

Goop.NA URED SATIRE.

THE METRoPoLITANs BY Jeanie Drake New
York; The Century Company. Price 81 25.
This is good satire on New York
society, besides being a novel of considera-
bic diversity of plot The title is justified by
the typical character OF the hero, the heroine,
and most of the minor characters. bril-
liant and gifted young man, who has been
meanly deprived OF his inheritance, wins his
way to success as a composer and gains his re-
ward as lover by dropping his idle associ-
ates and accepting the gospel of hard work.
The scene is laid mainly in New York City,
but the author has introduced decided nov
city in shifting the scene during an important
part of the development of the plot TO the
Arctic regions. Here the hero's character is
finally rounded out by the hardship and pri-
vation that necessarily accompany life in an
Eskimo igloo. The dramatic element of this
portion of the story is intensified by the pres
ence amid these uncongenial surroundings of
beautiful Hun garian singer, who has helped
the hero's operas into popular favor. Miss
Drake has avoided hackneyed incidents and
ventured nto new fields.

our comprehension how such rubbish can pass
into the pressrooms OF reputable con-
Germ like the Arena Publishing Company. The
authoress furnishes no reason ior the being
of her work, but modestly claims to be the
recipient of 'inspiration." which she grace
fully emits in $50 pages of nightmare for the
benefit of her suffering audience. The book,
however, possesses certain notable points. II
