Gently published by the Scribmer's.
Price, $l.5O. 1t is the story OF young
college graduate who starts out without

as IN unskiiled laborer. lie finds EN-
ployment In gang of labOrers ell
gagged In tearing down old buildings nj
West Point, rs u hotel porter. anon.
crew digging sewers, rs farm hnnd
and In n lumber camp. His expert
ences are thrilling and his story OF his
co-workers intensely interesting. He
tells the story and allows his reader 10
draw his own deductions. The lesson
seems to be that man of good habits
who makes his employers interests his
own, and who has good health. can Sc.
cure work without much difficulty and
can soon plnce himself In the way of
rapid promotion.
''The King Of the Broucos," by
Charles F. Lummis, Is the title Of an
other book recently published by the
Scribners. 1t is made up of stories Of
adventure In New Mexico. While ex.
citing enough to suit any one. the tales
are free from the profanity and vul.
garity that many writer's feel obliged
to employ when dealing with these sub
tects. 1t Is great book for boys.

They arc to be shipped to South Africa.
The engines were completed thirty -onc

BY Glaistone's Grave.

While the last anthem was sung Mrs.
Gladstone. her sons and daughters.
grandchildren, and near relatives stood
round the grave and took their last fare
well look at the osken coffin. At the
close of the service Mrs. Gladstone rested
for few minutes In the chair which had
been provided for her. having hiterto pre-
ferred 10 stand or kneel. She expressed
a wish TO Mr.. Henry Gladstone that she
might shake hands with the pali-bearers
before they departed. a wish which her
son communicated to the Prince of wales
and TO the Earl Marshal. Thereupon,
with a ready grace. and tJr supremest
delicacy, each one Of the pall-bearsrs APP
preached, some with tears In their eyes,
and bent down or knelt upon one knee In
order that they might kiss the hand Of
the woman who had greatly ministered
TO a great Engiishman. Ii was a moving
sight, and 10 was IN vain that those who
wished TO observe IL tried 10 dissociate
themselves from their surroundings.
Without paradox. of this simple but MEM
orable scene there were no spectators.
All were mourners The Dead March"

until the last strain, when the band
Joined in and the whole was then re-
peated. the congregation standing; while
4, the assembly dispersed the Beethoven
march from op. 20 was played again.
Immediately after the Conclusion OF the
service It was possible TO mount the stair
cases which led to the galleries OF the tri-
forum, and from the eastern end OF the
gallery above the chancel TO view the dis
persal of the immense assembly. At first
on lOking down from this height at the
strange scene which was presented, and
after the disquiethg emotions OF the day.
the head swan with giddiness. and a
mist passed before the eyes. The chapels
and the altar and the chancel seemed on
sudden removed TO a great distance,
the regal pillars which sprang upward
heightened indefinitely. and one looked
down and beheld far beneath a world
which was unreal and wondered why
this vast and curious multitude throbbed
and quivered as the light from the pris-
matte windows cleft the shadows and
smote upon the hagstones. But soon TIA.
vision cleared. the overwrOught nerves
became steadier, and one saw how quiet
ly the people were dispensing. From The
gallery above the north thanscept one
looked direct into the open grave OF
William Ewart Gladstone. and saw tho
coffin with it's red oak cross. In the still
ness and peace which had fallen upon tine
Abbey. one thought no longer that he had
died, but, as the legendary Arthur died
not. but passed into the vale OF Avilon, so
il seemed that the great statesman. with
his failures and his successes, 1.-THE daunt-
