any such heroic fashion as this of the

Some one mentioned TO Charles Battell
Loomis the other day the fact of a new
financial difficulty in one of our large
book-selling establishments that has had
a succession of such difficulties of late.
YES" said LOOMS in his sad, signing
way, "they fail often. l had to go in
there a day or two ago, and l hurried out
for fear they might fail again While l was
there"
The state Of Indiana seems'to be rather
especially to the fore in the matter OF
young novelists. | made mention few
weeks ago of Mr.. Booth Harrington, you
young Indianian, whose first novel is TO
begin serial publication shortly in one OF
the leading magazines. And now l learn
that the state also has a certain claim on
Miss Anna Farquh9r, whose first novel,
THE Professors Daughter" has just fin
ished serial publication in the Saturday
Evening Post and is to appear shortly in
book form. l. don't know that Miss Far
quhar is a native of Indiana, and at present
she does not live there, but at Boston
About The time she was born, however,
her, father John II. Farquhar was one
of the representatives. of Indiana in Con-
gress, and man of much prominence and
importance IN tne state. MISS II dINulldI mas
decided musical talents, and her determi-
nation at one time was for career as an
operate singer. For several years she stud
led very hard to this end, first in Boston
and New York, and then in Europe. But ii
finally appeared that her physical powers
were quite unequal to the vocation she
had chosen, and she abandoned 1t about
three years ago and turned to writing
During her musical studies she had tried
her hand little by writing some musical
criticisms for the newspapers. She now
became a foreign correspondent OF the
Boston Transcript and she wrote novel,
cite, n story Of musical life entitled "A
Singed's Heart" and promptly found a
publisher for it, The book made good
though not large or startling impress
sion and gave at least strong intimation of
the ability that is fully declared in The
Professors Daughter" Some time ago
there appeared in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal a series of articles on social life in
Washington written manifestly from the
closest personal acquaintance with the
subject. AS they were published anony-
mously there was a good deal of specula-
ton as to who could be the author of them.
II has lately been disclosed that they were
written by Miss Farquhar. She is woman
of great enthusiasm and persistence, and
as she is now but a little past 30 years of
age, she bids fair, with the distinguished
beginning she has made, to become in a
few years one of the foremost of Ameri-
can authors.

the fact is so obvious. Mr. Norris never
does disappoint For upward of twenty
years now he has been turning out novels
of the most uniform quality at the most
regular rate. His general way of life is
as assured and orderly as the appearance
of his works. He has a country home at
Torquay, on the shore of the English
channel. and there, In study command
ing beautiful outlook he writes his daily
portion calmly and unfailingly. He can
not dictate but he employs a secretary
TO make a fair copy for him. With all
his method, however, he is not above tax
ing good holiday; and for this he is rath-
ed apt to go to Paris, of which he is quite
fond. Like so many authors, he was ed
ucated for the law, but never practiced.
The reproach. repeated rather often, that
American literature has distinctly declined
of late in the department of criticism, has
never seemed to me to be quite justified
But those who feel that it is might take
some comfort from a group of young crit
les who are every day becoming a more
distinct and recognized force In this
group one might name especially Prof
George r. Carpenter Prof w F. Trent.
John j. Chapman and Norman Hapgood;
and 1t is interesting TO note from what
diversity either Of locality or employment,
they are laboring in one general line.
and to substantially the same end. Mr..
Carpenter and Mr.. Trent are of the same
vocation, college professors in the depart
ment of literature; but one is in a metro
polltan establishment, Columbia, here in
New York. while the other is in college
in Tennessee. Mr.. Chapman is a lawyer,
practicng at the New York bar, and as
much interested in politics and public
public questions as in literature. Mr.. Hap
good, on the other hand, is a newspaper
man, his special charge being the depart
ment of dramatic criticism for the New
York Commercial Advertiser.

Churchill is announced for a second APP
pearance as a novelist and in it, I learn.
he is to make a very sharp turn on him
self. He is going to fail into the rank of
the romantic historical fellows, who, at
least in the way of trade. seem still to
enjoy very large fraction Of the earth
In The Celebrity" it will be recalled,
Mr.. Churchill stuck so close 20 his own
generation that Immediately it became a
popular sport with readers and reviewers
to hunt out in real life the originals of
his chief characters. AS the model for
the Celebrity himself, Mr.. Richard Hard
ing Davis was quite openly pointed at,
and Mr.. Churchill was even charged with
having written his satirical tale for no
other reason than to pay a private grudge
These personal interpretations became so
irritating TO him at last that he took no
tice Of them in a public letter. He denied
the whole imputation, first in general
terms, and then specifically. The Celeb
rity, he declared, was in character, APP
pearance and manners entirely imaginary.
no one at all resembling him existed
among the authors personal acquaintance,
and 50 far from seeking to pay off per-
sonal grudges in the creation, Mr.. Church.
I'll asserted that he had no personal
grudges to pay off
Perhaps it is not so much to secure a
share of the plums that seem 20 fairly
fall into the mouths of the historic-roman-
tic novelists, as to avoid the possibilities
of a repetition of these annoyances, that
Mr.. Churchill now makes so radical a
change of ground. Whether he is DELHI
erately seeking 1t or not, his safety
against further suspicion of personal mall
ice Will be assured. His new hero Is to
be Richard" and his heroine "Doro-

the fact that its use always instlres the finest, daintiest and most
