The Century Magazine for the COM
ing Year.

The Century Magazine, with its
November number enters upon its
9th year. During its long existence
by reason of its many notable sue
cesses, it has won an assured and
commanding position. During the
coming year the Century will main
tain its exceptional position as a
magazine of entertainment and as q
leader in art and thought.
Its pictorial features will be no
table, and it will command the SER
vices of tue foremost artists, illustra-
tors and engravers of this country
and of Europe.
Nothing like a complete annouce-
ment of its literary features can be
attempted now. DR.. Weir Mitchell,
whose novel of the American Revo-
luton, "Hugh Wynne," is the great
success of the year, has written a
new story for the present volume. 1t
bears the piquant title: "The Ad-
ventures of Francois: Founding,
Adventurer, .Juggler and Fencing
Master during the French Revolu-
tion. The tale is full of romance
and adventure. Mrs Burton Harri-
son contributes a new novel of New
York life, called "Good Americans"
in which contemporaneous social
types and tendencies are brightly
mirrored and described.
There will be a group of clever
stories about horses and people who
like horses, under the general title
of "Gallops." "A Woman's Remin-
iscences of the French Intervention
in Mexico" will be given In a series
of graphic and highly picturesque
papers by Mrs. Cornelius Stevenson.
Further contributions to the inter
esting series of Heroes of Peace will
be made by Jacob A. Riis, Gustave
kODDe, EljZaDeth STUART Phelps
Ward and others.
For the benefit of the readers of
the Century an unusual combination
offer is made for this year. There
has been issued "The Century Gal
lery of one hundred Portraits" made
up of the finest engravinRs that have
appeared In the magazine, and rep
