Osceola, lived in accordance with high

IN THE CAGE. By Henry James Chicago: Her
bert s. Stone L. Company.
With infinite-and at times tiresome-de-
tail of analysis. Mr.. James tells here a
tragedy in a minor key. 1t Is the story Of
young woman who, 'in the cage of
London branch postal and telegraph Office
sees society through its foibles, follies and
scandals committed to the wire, and forms
a romantic attachment for a member of
the smart set. He is deep in intrigue, and
the girl develops lofty resolve to help
him in his danger 1t is a close study in
yleW-points The story is all told from
that of the girl. The tragedy In her life
is the more pathetic because of the proba-
bility that her ideal is unworthy, and. fur
thermore, that he is not in the least con-
cerned about her. 1t is an interesting sug-
gestion of how far desire will carry the
Imagination.
