one who has seen the locality of which
he writes and participated in many of
the stirring events which he so graphic
ally details.
Mr.. Musgrave has not contented him
self with skimming the surface Of the
short-lived war between Spain and the
United States, conducted on Cuban soil.
He has gone to the root Of the Cuban
grievances, and faithfully exploited the
cause of Cuba's hatred for Spain, Wey-
lerS atrocities, and the wretchedness of
the recOncentrados. The present work
was written after the author had wit
messed the triumph Of American arms at
Santiago. Landing in Cuba a warm SYM
pathizer with Spain, Mr.. Ntusgrave lived
to become friend of Cuba, and his heart
went out to her in her struggle for In
dependence. While he held a comrnis-
sion In the Cuban army he modestly dis
claims the authenticity of the stories of
telling the story of Cuba's long struggle

Its much improved literary merit and edu-
Cauonai value Such chapters as, for ex-
ample, the history Of the churches have
been so brought down to the present time
as to include the latest status of the
Augsburg seminary conflict while the
biographies, generally speaking, have
been similarly corrected up to the year
just dying. There is added an entirely
new chapter on the Scandinavian popula-
+iOn of America, in which the author fig

TO base his belief, that the total popula-
ton in the United States of Scandinavian
birth or descent at this time is 100000

haustive as incomplete public records will
permit and plainly represent much dill
gence and earnestness of purpose. One
thing that these tables do show that Is
worthy of more conspicuous mention
than this, perhaps. is the presentation Of
the relative strength of the Scandinavian
population in various American cties.
according to the United States census of
1890, the figures showing the population,
as to Scandinavians living, who were born
in the three Scandinavian countries:

Brooklyn, Greater New York could just
about equal the Scandinavian born popu-
lation of Minneapolis. There are num-
Der of street sayings, one common one
to the effect that there are more
Swedes in Minneapolis than in Stock
holm. which this plainly refutes.
But the figures presented by Mr.. Nelson
are worthy of more than such a dilet-
tante study.
The tables showing the defective and
criminal classes in 1860, 20, so and 80,
with their birthplaCes, are equally inter-
esting and are made the basis for another
additional chapter from the authors sum-
mary, Of which may be quoted
From 1850 to 1880 the Scandinavians, in
regard to insanity. had almost the best
record of any foreigners in the United
States Since, with the exception of the
Irish. they apparently have had the
worst and their downward march toward
. lunaCy has even been a little more rapid
than their upward march toward moral
perfection, being in the former case a.
deterioration of nearly so per cent in
about ten years. 1t is difficult to
assign any predominating cause or causes
for the appalling increase, real or appar-
ent, of mental arrangement among the
ScandinaVians in America. and more diff
hcult still to discover a check or remedy
for the evil, which may be their fate or
fault Probably the earnestness and
depth of their character, coupled with a
strong imaginative md poeticaI nature
units many of the Immigrants for en-
during the intense pr G5sure of constantly
recurring and often fanatical religious
controversies, social upheavaIs and pOlit-
1caI excitement, disappointment in love
and financial troubles. A hypocrite or
mentally strong character can, for ex-
ample, study the various religions of the
world without danger and with some
profit to himself. But a very earnest,
uneducated person, of average mental ca
pacitieS, is likely 10 become a lunatic be-
fore the process is over. Perhaps a ma
jority Of Scandinavians in America take
more serious interest in spiritual mat
ters than the majority of other people,
and some persons have, out of ignorance,
taken advantage of this earnestness and
excited them beyond their strength This
assumption is strengthened, at least to a
certain extent, by an appeal to statistics.
for it appears that the Danish-Ameri-
cans who seldom become excited about
religious affairs. are less subject to in
sanity than the SWedes and Norwegians -
Other interesting tables show the num-
Der OF communicates and other statistics

many respects is an entirely new history

written altogether, for example 'sThe

new chapters and statistical tables have
been added. The photography of Scan
