ineness occasionally. In fact, we are
not quite satisfied with Mr.. Williams's
love-maklng, which Is all sunshine and
no clouds. II is only fair, however,
to say that the part played by the
"nephews" I'm the garden as the unsus-
Iecting agents in bringing matters to
a head is admirably managed and
shows the author at his best. Indeed,
Mr.. Williamss forte lies in his skillful
portraiture of scenes and episodes
which, taken separately, are perfect
productions of art. but as component
parts of a whole appear to less ad-
vantage. The dialogue, also, has al
ways the ease and grace of natural
conversation. The story has its mis-
sion. Mr.. Williams is a Welsh nation
alist, and "Gwilym a Benni Bach" is
intended to teach nationalism to the
reader, and illustrate how a knowledge
of Welsh may exist side by side with
that of English. 1t is written largely
in the dialect of East Carmarthen-
shire, which, If faithfully represented
here, must be in an advanced stage of
decay Its employment, however,
adds greatly to the value and interest
of the story, and students of Welsh
dialects will hail the book with de-
light. The publishers are Hughes and
Son, and the work sells at a shilling.

HIS HAPPIEsT INTERVIEW.
Senator Chandler Tells One Good
Story on Himself.


Il am not giving any more inter-
views to the newspapers" says Senator
Chandler, when he is asked II he has
any further contributions to anti-Mo-
kinley literature, such as he made be-
fore the nomination of the present
president. And then Senator Chandler
remarks that the most satisfactory in
terview he has had occurred while he
was attending the launch of the battle
ship Iowa at Philadelphia. In the
throng he observed a charming young
lady who he thought was the daughter
Of a friend. Going up behind her he
touched her upon the shoulder and
then to his astonishment discovered
that it was a case of mistaken identity.
II beg pardon" said the senator po-
lltely. II am Senator Chandler and I
thought you were some one else 1 hope
you will excuse me-"
The young lady bowed and smiled
pleasantly. Certainly" she said, "and
/ am glad to met you, Senator Chand-
ler." Then she hesltated for a mo-
ment. "Ah," she added, from what
state?"
Just now" says the senator, telling
the story, "the people who do not know
Senator Chandler and who do not know
the state he is from are the people 1
want to meet"

NEW STORY BY MR.. LLEWELYN
WILLIAMS.

The number of Welsh novels may be
counted on the fingers of one hand, a
fact which is all the more surprising
considering that the Welsh are an
imaginative people, with an extensive
literature and fond of reading. The
few novels written in Welsh a-e only Of
recent origin. In fact, the novel proper
commenced with "Rhy5 Lewis" Dan ell
owens story, whicn has now been
translated into at least three European
languages English, German and
French. In Welsh, therefore, the field
of fiction is practically undeveIoped,
and offers a capital opportunity to a
writer acquainted with the language
and the life and h story Of the people
TO distinguish himself. Whether such
writer has appeared in the person Of
the author of "Gwlym a Benni Bach"
is more than we can say. but Mr.. Will
Jams posses all the qualifications neces-
sary to produce a work of the first
merit. a born Welshman a native of
one of the most distinctively Welsh
districts in Wales. educated In Lion
dovery and OXtord and having lived
most of his time among the people, his
knowledge of Wales is not limited to a
months stay at the seaside, as in the
case of some would-be Welsh" novel;
lists. He possesses, moreover, a culti-
waited and graceful Welsh style and a
lively fancy. The fist born Of bis in
vention lin book tolm, at least)
is "Gwilym Benni Bach" a
story of no great length, but
one whose merits should not
be Judged by the number of it's pages.
1t is intended as picture of Welsh life
as seen in East Carma rtbenshire, the
central figures being two boys, who
have given their names to the story,
nephews of medical man in practice
at Swansea. The lads show a preco-
city sometimes above their age, but on
the whole a healthy and natural
growth. with as much fun and uncon-
scious mischief in their composition as
the famous pair in "Helen's Babies"
r story, by the bye, between which
and that of Mr.. Williams there are
some lines of similarity, though this
may be entirely accidental. The school
days and home life of the lads are por~
trayed with rare SKILL and, doubtless,
are meant to illustrate long standing
conviction of the author that Welsh
children should have for their teachers
Welsh-speaking men and women. May
be that some of the colorlng, especially
in the 'wigwam" scene. where the
truants play Red Indians" is a little
overdone. but the whole scene is so
well drawn and so instict with humor
that any little excess is forgotten. The
discipline of rural life, with its rest
full quiet and leisure, it's purity and
the unsophisticated character of Welsh
countrywide is excellent. and equals
anything of the kind hitherto pub
llshed in tn vernacular. OF course,
there is love in the story, and a great
deal of IT, Miss Bevan" being an ideal
