Literary Notes

The June Atlantic Monthly contains
the opening chapters OF new serial
story entitled, To Have and to Hold, by
Miss Mary Johnston, the rising and pop
ular young author OF the brilliant his
torical romance, Prisoners of Hope,
which has been so successful during the
past season. Miss Johnston's work not
only became Immediately and unusually
popular, but is admitted by the best
critics to be of the highest order OF his
torical fiction, full of vigor and interest,
and vet accurate and true to life and
time.
The June 10Th number OF The Youths
Companion will contain the first chap
ter OF Robert Thompson's serial story,
Professor. a tale Of railroad life; The
Island of Negroes, a lively description Of
pine island, which lately sought United
States protection and The Tyrant, a
story by Harriet Prescott Spofford.
In Harper's Weekly are now appearing
four OF the most valuable series Of
special articles of the year. Under the
tale, An American Sovereign, Julian
Ralph writes Of India, and of Lord and
Lady Curzon In their new empire. Ha-
waiian America, by Caspar whitney, Is
a series that lie invaluable to every Amer
lean who Is interested In Hawaii, in a
commercial or Industrial way. Mr..
Franklin Matthew's description of The
Reconstruction Of Cuba is admirably
clear and interesting. The same may be
said Of the work of John r. Bass, special
correspondent for the Weekly In the
Philippines. Another very interesting
feature is the clever serial by Robert w.
Chambers The Conspirators, In which
the present Emperor of Germany, whom
Mr.. Chambers styles William the Sud-
den, comes in for much good-natured
ridicule.
The serial attraction of The Living
Age for the summer months will be a
story by "Neera" one OF the best-known
of contemporary Italian writer's. 1t is
called The Old House and the opening
chapter, In the number for July |, is full
of color and romantic charm.

Daniel Church died of pneumonia at
his home about three miles below this
place last Thursday, at midnight, after
a two weeks illness. He had suffered
for six years from kidney and bladder
diseases, and had become so weakened
that he could not Withstand the ravagef
of the dread disease that has swept away
SO many during the past year. Mr..
Church was fifty years Of age and had
lived in this community for about ten
years, long enough to be known as a
kind, Industrious and upright man.
Several years ago at Bingham, he es-
poused the religion of Christ and united
with the Free Baptist church at that
place but when the Congregational
church WAS organized here, he, with
Mrs. Church, transferred his member
ship to that body of which he remained
member till his death. His funeral
was held at his home, Sunday, a. M,
June 25, and was attended by many
neighbors and relatives. His pastor,
Rev. w. l.. Jennings conducted the ser
vices, speaking words Of comfort and
cheer. Mr.. Church leaves wife, four
sisters, brother and mother to mourn
their loss. Mrs. Church Ia left alone on
her farm with her aged mother.
