The war articles in the September Scrib-
ners are led by Richard Harding Davis
account Of 1.-The Rough Riders Fight Mt
Guasimas." There is no information at Sec
ond-hand in this article; Mr.. Davis was in
the thick Of the fight and writes of what
he saw. When he crushes once for all the
story Of a surprise, he does it with posi-
tive knowledge Of the previous orders given
and received by Gen. Wheeler and Col. Wood
The conversations he had with the men in
the fight are vivid bits of dramatic dialogue
The whole article is the fullest as well
as the most thrilling account Of the Quasi
mas fight yet published, and will stand as
the historical picture Of that famous event
The illustrations give many Of the best
known men in the rough riders and views
of the country over which they fought There
are also drawings from life by the artist, H.
Z. Christy, who was there.

Number of Letters Received-De-

Vided fOr--COmpIete List of All
Letters Received Up to and In

Returns from the endless chain are
now being received in such abundance
as to gladden. the heart Of Mr. Field
hauser, Of the library board, who
started the chain with the view of
, raising money enough to provide
suitable library building for st. Paul.
Ninety letters We're received yesterday,
and each day hereafter. as during the
week, Is expected to see an increase
In the number Of returns. During the
early part Of the week the demand
for letters could not be met, but now
several thousand blanks have been
printed and left ait points convenient
for those who desire to use them. These
can be obtained at any of the following
places free of charge:

There is no guessing at this time
just what sum can be realized for this
effort. But, If those who contribute and
are denominated as a link in the chain
perform their part. Mr.. Feldhauser
will receive as much as he hoped for in
the beginning. Some Of the series
may be broken but it Is earnestly
hoped that such will not be the case.
AS mentioned in The G o b e Of yes

that link was sent in without any
name, this may be connected up in
regular order. if a report is made as

Stocking, in which the plaintiff was given a.
decree on the grounds of desertion, came be-
fore Judge Lewis yesterday, on motion of
Mrs. Stocking, through her attorney. for a

When the case was first tried Mr.. Stocking
charged desertion. His wife filed a sensa.
tional counter suit. in which she asked for
alimony and charged that she had fallen a
victim to loathsome disease through her
husband. The case was stubbornIy contested.

"Meg of the Scarlet Foot"


Meg of the Scarlet Foot is a novel
worthy of considerable notice. It IS
a book too good at times to be called
always successful. Too many styles
Of the architecture Of fiction-each one
handled by itself with considerable art
are brought together to make the
whole structure pleasing in the end
Microscopic realism of treatment and
a sensational plot seem to mix no bet
ter than the prOVerbial oil and water.
Nor is the subtle philosophy of life
and love a yOke-fellow for melodrama.
It is seldom that the same reader is in
sympathy with things so seldom found
In each others company. Now in
Meg Of the Scarlet Foot" there is
very subtle delineatiOn Of character
marVelOusly exact but microscopic
treatment Of detail, a sympathetic
cropping at the master-knOt Of human
fate that fascinates him who reads to
find such things; while he fingers over
them, however. he forgets the plot
and is little surprised and somewhat
indignant TO run up against a rather
sensational ramifCatiOn of it, while
he who thriVes on melOdrama grows
impatient with the delineat tons and
reflections that make the story so long
in getting anywhere, in spite Of the
TACT that things are always happen
ing.
Nevertheless, the book is worth the
time Of either class, and we are al
most ready to admit against our arts
tic conscience, that the author was
forced to join warning methods and
materials to get at just what he want
ed, Yet it's an undesirable necessity,
at best
We prefer to regard the book as a
sympathetic study of Gods world made
In the mood Of the early PreraphaeI
lies who studied their fairgrounds
through glass and somewhat forgot
the relation of the whole to itself. and
yet colored and drew from what ma
ture had painted rather than man.
However the book will gain more
readers, we do not question, from its
sanguine title and that which is of
like color in it's plot than from any
such recommendation.

"Thls Little World"

This Little World" novel by David
Christie Murray, is one Of the Apple
ton Town and Country Library, and
this is saying the most favorable thing
about it that occurs to the reviewer.
1t hardly reaches the standard one sets
for this series in either interest or con-
StructiOn, and while it serves to divide
ones attention with the heat of the day
it is not holding enough to minimize
the discOmforts of summer. The hero
of This Little World" is the self
taught young painter Of one Of the
very rural parts Of England. He is a
marvel Of course, and as such the world
reSents him with much bitterness, and
in the end accepts him with much en-
thusiaSm. The heroine is a young girl
witch a remarkable voice from this same
rural district but, more fortunate to
begin with, she is taken UP by wealthy
folk and made much of. The strug-
Cling artist loves her in vain at this
time, while an established but crudely
selfish painter is more successful in his
suit. Hope, the girl at the height Of
her fame, loses her voice, is thrown
over by the successful artist and re-
turns home, chastened in spirit, to
nurse her dying grandfather. In the
end the despised young painter, crown
ed with fame and juggling more
guineas than usually find their way

verses, humorous and "sad-sOmewhat,"
by Joe Kerr, a newspaper man, whose
writings are often to be found in the
funny columns of the press and whose
popularity with large class Of readers
has led to the publication of this, his

English are still quaint and Whims cal

Where the sand men pitch their tents.
In DroWsyland,

'Tis right by the source Of the River Of Life,
Which the Grandma Storks watch over;

Groom Lullabies in sweet clover.

While never mite,

In Cuddledowntown there are Choo-chco GERS
In all the beautiful streets,
And round bald heads
And curly heads,
Are the Engineers one meets;
From Piggybacktown to Pattycakeville,
These cars run, kissing, screechng,
While wonderful toys
For girls and boys
Can always be had by reaching.

Where little tired less find rest;
It's in Gods hand,

Not far from Mothers breast,
And many a weary, grown-up man,
With sad soul, heavy, aching,
Could he lie down
In this sweet town,
Might keep his heart from breaking.
