Books Which Come High.

A writer in critical review says
that half Of the book buying public
does not know what the other half
buys All the books that are published
are by no means to be found in the
bookstores The most beautiful and
costly books never find their way into
the shops at all, are not sent out for re-
view and are known to very limited
number Of people. Immense sums are
yearly spent on the making Of such
books, which bring from 500 to 81, 900
each. These expensive volumes are not
sold in the ordinary way, but entirely
by subscription, and the business Of
selling them in the United States is in
the hands of about half a dozen men,
who neither sell nor attempt to sell
anything else. Their season is short,
but the profits are large, and they live
at the most expensive hotels and drive
about luxuriously in broughams with a
man servant in attendance to carry the
books.

was an enthusiastic gathering. The
house was densely crowded and hand

and addressed the convention at
length.
He characterized ex-Congressman

lauded the administration and said
that nothing venal but only occasional
incompetency could be shown in its
management of the war.
He related the story of the interna-
tional bimetallic commission, of which
he was chairman, and insisted
that the restoration of sill
ver'' would yet take place,
and through the efforts of the republi-
can party. His speech was forceful
and magnetic and he was loudly cheer
ed. The nominations for governor and
state officers will be made late this af-
