NOyELISTS' CHARACTERS.

The trouble that novelists have with the
proper names of their characters is aptly
illustrated by story of Hall Caine when at
work on "The Christian" (Appleton's). While
visiting the country home of his publisher
he made call at ex- President Cieve-
lands cottage, not far from which is a
small burying-ground of the colonial days
Caine went in for the purpose of seeing If
he could not find name suitable for the
hero of his new book, which was in an ad-
vanced stage, but the leading character
of which had not been christened On a
uilapidated tom bstone he found the name
"Storm," which he remembered having once
before seen in an English graveyard, and
instantly the hero was named John Storm"
The story has sequel which is almost too
realistic to be other than apocryphal but, as ii
is told, few days after Caine had settled on
the name he was in Hamilton, Canada, when
the door OF the carriage in which he was seated
was abruptly opened by stalwart man, who,
seeing he had made mistake, closed 1t
with bang. "By an uncomfortable impulse''
Caine asked his name, and was promptly
told "John Storm" Whether the story be
true or false does not matter much, but if the
former, Caine is not the only novelist who had
the good or i'll fortune, as the event proved,
of meeting in the flesh people whose names he
had utilized without perhaps the .aintest
knowledge of their existence. Dickens took
no end of pains in the selection of his
names, endeavoring not only to secure
such names as exactly fitted the characters
he had sketched, but aIso to choose those
which had no living representatives.. In
spite Of his caution, however, he was occa-
sionally taken to task for what the owner
of the name regarded as an unwarrantable
liberty with his cognomen. Not long after the
appearance of .'Nicholas Nickleby," a family
of Nicklebys was discovered in London, and
few months Later q gentleman by the name Of

SPEAKING TROPICALLY.

THE HAPPY HYPOCRITE, BY Max Beer
bohm. John Lane, the Bodley Head. New
York and London. Price, 35 cents
This truly brilliant little allegory, which is
called "a Fairy Tale for Tired Men, is worth
reading for its wit alone, and eliminating the
wit, the exquisitely beautiful seriousness
which the author half conceals with SEM
blauce OF the most careless levity, would make
the artistic booklet rare bit of master work
manship. Add to these two excellencies the
wonderfully taught lesson of life the fgura-
tive story conveys with such refreshingiy
unique grace and the trinity of charms con-
densed into so small a space makes surpass-
ing treat for heart and brain. If it is not large
enough to be called literary feast, it is Ger.
tainly most delicious literary lunch. We are
told in a humorous way that excels in airy
lightness of how the dissolute Lord George
He'll masks his evil face for love of Jenny
Mere, and saying Lord George He'll is dead,''
signs his name to the marriage certificate as
Lord George Heaven.
In the art OF telling fairy tale for grown
foIks Max Beer bohm has here reached per-
lection which deserves a crown of roses, and
ne takes the cake and champagne of life for
ever If he continues such meritorious story
telling and gets his deserts. If the effect of
literature on life is potent as 1t should be, this
parable put before the world with superlatiye
cleyeFness and grace may well start many an
other Lord George He'll on the way to becom-
Ing another Lord George Heaven; and MANY
another sweet Jenny Mere, after inspiring a
transformation in her lover, may find therein
a happy suggestion that perhaps she can con-
tinue to love on even after the mask of her
happy hypocrite is torn away and the conf
denee of love hides nothing. Many are the
ways in which the heart is reached and this
witty tale may be read by some who would
never heed sermon

died and the circumstances OF his mother were
such that he had to go to work as printers ap-
prentice in the Office of the Hannibal Weekly
Courier. 'I can see," he said once at
printers banquet in New York. "that print.
ing office of prehistoric times yet, with its
horse bills on the walls; its ID boxes clogged
with tallow, because we always stood the
candle in the * box nights; its towel. which
was never considered soiled until 1t could
stand alone" For three years lie worked in
this delectable establishment, and then, at
the age of 10, ran away from home ap-
parently without penny OF money. Until he
was 20 or thereabouts he seemed TO have
wandered through the eastern half OF the
country as q tramp printer. Then, suddenly
changing his vocation, he became pilot
on the Mississippi River. Five years
later, the railroads and the Civil War
having made plotting an impossible oc-
cupation, he enlisted as three months
volunteer in the Confederate army, and
was captured, but succeeded in escaping
from the tobacco warehouse in st. Louis,
where he was held prisoner. He fled 10 the
West, the West of Bret Harte, swarming with
adventures, with whom the fashionable or
naments of the day were can eight-inch re-
volver, an Arkansas toothpick and jack
boots" AS miner, journalist and lecturer he
led rough and impecunious life in Nevada
and California, until in 1867 he published his
first story. "The Jumping Frog of Gala
veras," and sailed by way of Panama
to New York. little later he found
the opportunity to go to Europe and
the Holy Land as newspaper correspondent,
and so obtained the material for his "Inno-
cents Abroad" After many difficulties and
with much misgiving, the book was finally
published. The next morning Mark Twain,

TALE OF THE LAND OF THE TsAR.

by A. Nj. Robertson, Post street, City.
thoroughly good story, translated into Eng
lish reading so SIN oothly and strongly that we
feel confident it has lost little in its transfer
from another language, is this novel by Rus
sian, illustrative of life in Holy Russia and the
traits characteristic of its people. The green
book from which the title of the story is
taken is sort of register supposed to be kept
by the Russians who are conspiring revolution.
and which contains record of the confer
ences in every distant province and lists of the
names of conspirators. The scene is laid
mainly in st. Petersburg and in the time OF
the reign of Alexander l. Russian poet
named Pushkin is beloved by the prima
donna, Zeneida Ilmarine, but inasm uch as she
is the chief conspirator she drives him away
from her to keep his life from danger. At the
command of the Tsar he engages himself to
Sophie Narishkin, the Tsars illegitimate
daughter With the surroundings OF such a
country of deep secrets and severe condemns
tions, and with love, patriotism, am bition and
terror making the various motives for his
characters, it is easy to imagine that this able
writer has built thrilling tale.

and the edition Of 10 600 was entirely out OF

and the edition of 10, 900 was entirely out OF
the way before Saturday night. While the
type-setting and presswork seem remarkable,
the craftsmen understand that the bindery is
entitled TO the greatest praise.
The largest bindery here has capacity of
10000 books per day. When an establish h
ment reaches a production of 1000 or more
books per day it means that the folding and
sewing are done entirely by machinery. 1t is
possible to attain any speed that may be de-
sired in the production OF books where plain
paper cover is called for. Cloth covering comes
next In the manipulation of leather bind
ing more time is required For the better
class of library books it is seldom question
of speed, but always one of skilled workman
ship, good material and careful handling in
all departments.
Cloth binding is modern product. It was
made necessary by the growing demand for
medium-priced books-something better than
paper but less expensive than leather. The
use of cloth admits of speed and places a very
serviceable quality OF book within the reach
OF persons OF moderate means.
The extensive use of machinery in the book
binding OF the present day involves capital,
whereas under the old method of handwork
the outlay in this department of bookmaking
was trHing com pared to the cost of type and
printing machinery.
1t takes good many thousand dollars to fit
up bindery in these times, and the old
fashioned workman, though possessed of
amazing skill, is driven out by houses which
are competing for business. Perhaps it would
be more accurate to say that he is driven to
take shelter in the big concerns which have
the means TO add high-priced mechanical ap-
pliances to his talent.
The New York publishers say that the i'm
portation Of books is declining year by year.
1t is not difficult to see that 1t will cease,
practically speaking, in the near future. Po-
litical economists in this country, the book
men say, must find immense satisfaction in
the fact which has been demonstrated that
the binderies OF the United States already
have the capacity to produce all the books
that are required on this continent.

IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM.

Leaving the cases containing special letters
of great men from those in which are pre-
served miscellaneous manuscripts, the visitor
is simply dazed by the extent and value OF the
collection. The department contains more
than 5000 volumes of manuscripts written in
Oriental languages and each one is either
rare work in itself or representative
of a particular type. There are more
than a hundred ancient Greek, Cop
tic and Latin papyri, and 10000 other
volumes of various kinds. While most of
these interesting only to the scholar, many
of the Oriental exhibits have peculiar inter-
est for the merely curious visitor. One Pail
manuscript is engraved in beautiful charac-
ters on twenty-five leaves of silver. Another
is written on lacquered palm leaves with in
laid letters of mother-ofpearl. Another is on
q sheet of gold, and others on ivory. The
favorite material for this class of manuscripts
is palm leaves and some of the volumes con-
sist OF several hundred such leaves bound in
covers OF ivory.-From Lppincotts Magazine.
