that he may rather be viewed clear

the jingle of his spurs, or the crack of
his leather quirt, or the whipping of
his scarf end on the wind. Tinkle and

Tcyor a, guide, a scout, a fighting
man, he passed this way. If we study
him, we shall study also the day in
which he lived, more especially that
early day which saw the opening and
the climax of that drama of COM
merce-the cattle industry Of the
West" One can not refrain from
quoting thus lengthily from Mr..
thoughts introduction to his "Story of
the Cowboy" The Importance Of his
subject, his own point of view and his
method of treatment are all fore
ehadowed in this preliminary thumb
hail sketch. The Homeric possibilities
of this phase and period Of American
story appeal to Mr.. Hough through
his intimate knowledge Of and SYM
pathy with the vigorous folk of the
plains The wildness and gloom of a
life full of danger and often solitude,
the strength and versatility of men
equal to all emergencies, the freedom
and breadth of an open air existence
are not belittled by their relation to a
great industry, and Mr.. Hough is not
at all afraid of treating his subject in
all its aspects, nor does it lose it's he
+oic proportions by it's connection with
unromantio facts and dollars and
cents.
The book is thrilling and absorbing
and has cruel way Of making the
commonplace novel pale into insig-
hifcance.

"The Story of the West is a story
of the time of heroes. OF all those who
appear large upon the fading page Of
that day, none may claim greater
stature than the chief figure of the
cattle range. Cowboy, cattleman,
COW puncher, it matters not what
name others have given him, he has
remained-himself From the half
tropic to the half-arctic country he has
ridden, his type, his costume, his char
acteristics practically unchanged, one
Of the most dominant and self-suffi
cient figures in the history of the land.
He never dreamed he was a hero;
therefore, perhaps, he was one. He
would scoff at a monument or record;
therefore, perhaps, he deserves them.
Either chiseled or written record may
distort if it merely extol. For this
central figure of the cattle days, this
early rider of the range, it is best to

were written for st. Nicholas and this year
Mr. Kipling will contribute to st. Nicholas
a series of stories for boys and girls in what
is for him an entirely new vein. They are
them the "Just-So" stories, because they are
meant to be told 'just so" to children. The
first one will appear in the November st.

There is unusual variety of exceptionally
interesting material in the November Scrib-
ner's. The opening paper, the seventh on the
Conduct of Great Businesses, is by William

first adequate account of the great bonanza
farms of the West, whose annual product Is
such an important element in the rise and
fall of wheat prices Mr.. White has studied

describing them in terms of acres and BUSH

picturesque and varied human interests.

bound. The schooner Julia A. Trubee, for
New York and 7. w. Dunn, for Portland
have been anchored at Tybee for four
days awaiting a favorable wind TO proceed
to sea; the brig Robert Dillon, for New

the masters of a tug said yesterday that
he thought that the vessel is in a more

In connection with the loss of the guns
on the Grace, a gentleman on Bay street
remarked yesterday that The man who
made those guns should have a medal of
