Literary News and Notes.

An article in Munsey's Magazine for
December, giving a biographical and
personal study of Mr.. Henderson, the
new speaker of the House of Representa-
tives, is from the pen of Congressman
Boutelle of Maine. Although brief it is
a model piece of geographic character
writing; and is accompanied by the best
portrait of Mr.. Henderson yet seen in
any publication.
Capt. Charles D. Sigsbee, formerly of
the Maine, has written for The Youths
Companion the story of an alarming acct
dent to a little coast survey steamer on
the Cuban coast, due to the carelessness
of Spanish pilot. She was saved by the
resourceful expedient and interchangeable
efforts of her commander, who twenty
years after on the same coast met with
another and more appalling disaster in
the destruction of the United States bat
tie ship Maine.
Classified, the list of eminent men and
women who will write for The Youths
Companion during the coming year is
found to embrace heads of the national
government; statesmen prominent il Con-
gress, Parliament and the diplomatic ser
vice; leading educators; popular com
Pooeio gnu oiHStlot hCloSS VI VIC III my
and navy; celebrated naturaists and other
men of science; travellers and explorers,
and chosen group of the most famous
story writers. In travel the reader will
be taken through picturesque scenes and
thrilling adventures from Palestine to the
Philippines, from Cuba to Russia from
Mexico to Madrid, and from the High
lands Of Scotland to the heart of Africa;
the latest wonders Of science are to be
described for him by the highest authori-
ties; pictures are to be given of the cere-
monies and pomp Of European courts,
and q the characteristics of their rulers
as well as pictures of home life in various
countries, from New England to the Holy
Land biography flows from fresh sources
and through illuminative anecdotes of
illustrious characters, and the problems
that attend the pursuits Of ambitious
youth are to be discussed on the moral
side by eminent divines and on the practi-
cal side by eminent tinanciers.
