LITERARY NOTICES.

In Review of Reviews for May
the editor discusses the outbreak Of
the war between Greece and Turkey,
and the failure of the "concert of Eu.
rope" which he ascribes to Lord
Sallsbury's "process Of parley."
Especially timely is a paper on
"Some Constantinople Types" with
over a dozen splendid half-tone illus
trations, in Demorest's Magazine
for May. A study of these pictures
will lend additional interest to the
current war news from the East.
The story of General Grants re-
buffs and disappointments in his first
efforts to get employment in the
war-a story as romantic as anything
invented by the fertile fancy Of the
elder Dumas-is told by Hamlin Gar
land, from new documents and mate
rial, in the May McClure's.
Politics is better thing for .
young man to have knowledge Of
than to actually experience. He
should know what politics means, so
that he can vote intelligently and
conscientiously. One thing is certain:

"Does Modern College Education
Educate, in tho Broadest and Most
Liberal Sense of the term?" is one of
the most important inquiries that
could be set on foot. This discussion,
which is to be taken part In by Prest-
dent Gilman of the Johns Hopkins,
President Dwight of Yale, President
Schurman of Cornell, and others OF
the most distinguished men Of both
the United States and Europe. Is
continued in the May Cosmopolitan.
There is promised the frankest possl-
BILE expression of opinion, and 1t
seems probable that it will be the
most thorough comparison ever
made of educational methods with
the needs of every day life at the
close of the nineteenth century.
