Literary Note.

With the exception of the noted
Worlds Fair number of The Cosmo-
politan, which reached a price of five
t,ollars per copy after the last edition
had been exhausted, no stronger num-
Der of TINS magazine has ever been is
sued than that for July, 1897. The re-
port of Julian Hawthorne, the Special
Commissioner sent by The Cosmopoli-
tan to India to investigate the horrors
of the plague and famine, is of an ex-
traordinary character, and will open
the eyes of the world to conditions
which were scarcely suspected. The
same number contains what is proba-
bly, the greatest poem of this quarter
of the nineteenth century. This new
rendering of Omar Khayyam's Rubai-
yat, which departs entirely from Fritz
gerald's, occupies four pages. Amelie
Rivers reappears as a story-teller for
the first time since her marriage with
Prince Troubetzkoy. One of the clever
est stories yet from the pen of Robert
| w. Chambers is given. The remark
able story of the War of the Martians,
| by Wells, which is attracting the at
| tention both of the scientific and non
scientific good story-loving public, is
continued and there is fourth story
by a'Becket, elaborately illustrated by
the humor of Peter Newell. The edu-
| cational discussion-this time by Prof.

7ourng crops. Everything green is
qu'cisly eaten and then tine hordes OF
apes press farther into the settlements.
