AN IMPROBABLE TALE.

THE JUGGL R-By harles Fgbert Craddock
Boston; Honghton, Mfflin Co. Price, 81 90.
When the SEQ CHI dIalecucian has been sue
cesslully buried under the earth's crust it will
be IN order 10 wage war upon the writer's who
trafhc IN the hideous mouthngs of our own
American troglodytes. Why the latter should
be cons ldered good form while the former are
gldly Il booed is a matter for WONDER as the
dialect OF the participating Scot Is no worse
than that OF the tobacco-chewing South
Carolinan.
There is history behind the Scotchnan's
form OF speech, while that OF the other is
chiefly the result of illiteracy. With Charles
Egbert Craddock MARY n. Murfree) this habit
OF advertising the ignoramuses of the dark
corners OF this great and glorious republic is
rapidly becoming a vice, for she has turned
out some eleven books about them and will
probably continue 10 do SO until the pen is re-
moved from her hand.
The speech OF the uneducated is always Of
fensive TO the ears of the educated, and there
is absolutely no excuse for handing it down
to posterity. Where, for nstance, is the
beauty in language such as this: 81 drawed
the idee from whot nam said ez We war old
puSson"?
The individual to whom these words were
addressed, the Juggler, is given to looking
down the long darkly luStrous vista OF the
river and down the dusky bosky vista"
whatever those things may be, and is alto
gether out of place amid his surroundings.
In fact the story is so improbable that one
experiences acute relief when the young man
finally departs this life in an original and en-
Pertaining manner and brings long-draWn-
out tale TO timely conclusion.

CELEBRATED TRIALS - By Henry Lauren
Clinton. New York: Harper & Bros Price
81 so For sale In this city by A. NJ. Robertson
Mr.. Clinton in the present volume, as in his
previous one, entitled Extraordinary Cases. I"
has drawn upon his own experience during
forty years active practice at the New York
bar. The author has felt need TO write up his
subject. He marshals the pref iminary facts
in each case clearly and dispassiona tely. and
then let's the story In great measure tell
itself He has relied TO a considerable ex
tent upon extracts from the newspapers of the
day, to which his own matter supplies the
links, as well as running commentary. The
effect OF this method is that his pictures have
the old-time coloring and atmosphere and
one sees the events, as it were, in their proper
perspective.
The book is full of exciting incidents. and
might furnish many less capable writer
than Mr.. Clinton with material for novels or
plays. New York has had its share of muir
ders, thefts and myster ious happenings and
in his legal capacity Mr.. Clinton has beer
connected with all the more important The
peculiar murder of DR.. Burdeil in 1857 is

WORDS STOLEN BY JOHN BULL.

There is no doubt that the Briton's bump OF
acquisitiVeness is extraordinarily well devel-
oped. Any map of the world shows that, says
the London Daily Mail.
But even in such trhes as mere words, John
Bull shows, more than any other white man.
that his nature is TO take all he can get and
stick to 1t.
The curious part of the matter is that, in
Selling on foreign words, we have initiated the
colonial policy of France, which is TO choose
the most d lffcult and unusable territory TO be
found.
Italian, or even Spanish, we could pronounce
with comparative ease; French we can pro-
nounce only by most heroic eudeavors, but TO
the French language we fly whenever we want
TO steal a word And, curiously, we steal
when we have no need to-
Having a very excellent phrase at home for
instance, in living pictures" we cross the
channel for the expression "tableaux
vivants," that does not carry nearly so clear
an idea to the mind of an Englishman, and to
many is quite puzzle in pronunciation.
Gin de steele" is a capital phrase, no doubt,
but we could say the same thing In our
mother tongue with equal force and much
more confidence.
Amateur has become a permanent part of
everyday speech, and probably we shall re-
tain 1t forever. But il is a pity we do not
come to some agreement as to what sound we
give 1t, for timid conversational is never
sure whether to say amatare or amatoor or
amature, or even amachure.
"Bureau" is not often heard In England,
but is very common in the United States, and
is gradually making It's way across the Allan
tic. Menu" has apparently come TO stay, and
yet it was scarcely wanted.
America has given us an immense quantity
of forcible slang, and South Africa is now
likely to increase our phraseology. No doubt
we shall presently become familiar with such
useful phrases as "off-saddle," "out-span,"
'fnduba," etc.
What seems curious and quite foolish on
our part is the reluctance we display 10 give
these foreigners an English dress. We have
quickly enough converted employe into en-
ployee. But we have had the word envelope
