BOOK NOTES.

Ito Alaska for Gold" or 1.-THE For
tune Hunters OF the Yukon by Ed
ward Stratemeyer. Price S1OO- Pub
lished by Lee & Shepherd, Boston,
Mass.
This is the third volume of Bound
to Succeed" series. Mr.. Stratemeyer
tells in a graphic way the fortunes Of
the two Portney brothers. Earl and
Randy, two orphan lads from the lum-
Der region of Maine. An uncle in Cali
fOrnia, an old hunter and miner, sends
for them to take a trip to the KlOn-
dixie with him, this being his second
trip. The PREPARATION for the trip and
subsequent journey are most graphical
ally told The party have no easy time,
and no phenomenally good luck. The
book is the better off for it. They do.
however, secure some of the precious
metal and return safely. Mr.. Strate-
meyer deserves the fame he has gained
as a writer of thoroughly entertaining
and wholesome books. Through the
Kellam Book & Stationery company
Archibald Malmaison," by Julian
Hawthorne. Price, 81. p. Published by
Funk & Wagnalls Co, New York and
London.
In few books are the thrilling inter
est of a powerful romance and material
for serious scientific consideration more
strikingly combined than in this much
talked of story, Archibald Malmai-
SON." It possesses an unusual interest
scientifically, because of the strange
mental conditions of the hero. Eminent
experts on brain diseases have recently
discussed this feature of the book some
what exhaustively, and have reached
the conclusion that the conditions de
scribed in the story are we'll within the
realms of scientific possibility. The
plot is very startling and develops with
great rapidity, holding the readers at
tention to the end.

GOVERNOR OF CUBA.
The Title That is to Be Given
to Gen. Leonard Wood

New York, Dec. IA special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Governor of Cuba will be the Off
ciaI designation of the office to which
Major General Leonard Wood will be
assigned early in the new year as the
successor of Major General Brooke, the
present military governor of the is
land.
By emitting the word military the
president hopes to impress upon the
Cubans that under the new regime
civil government as far as possible
under military oIncers and men Will
obtain The word civil" will not be
substituted for military" because that
would appear incOngruOuS, in view OF
the authority under which the prest-
dent is operating. Nevertheless, it is
the desire of the president that Gen.
Wood shall cut loose from rigid mill
tary. methods and allow the Cubans the
widest latitude possible in municipal
affairs. Indeed that was his principal
motive in selecting Gen Wood for the
gOvernOrship- The number OF depart
ments in the island will probably be
reduced in a month or two so that
there will be no necessity for all the
general officers now there. Gen. Ludlow
desires, it is understood, to come home
when Cen Wood takes command.
Notwithstanding the opposition from
the line Of the army to the appoint
ment of Gen. Wood as major general of
volunteers the confirmation by the SEN
ate of his nomination may be accepted

'"The Civil War by Campaigns" BY
Prof Eli G. Foster author of Refer
ence Manual and Outlines of U. S. His
tory" etc. Published by Crane & Co,
Topeka. Kan. Price 81 There are
many histories written upon the civil
war, and many Of them give much
space and detail to battles and cam
paigns, a very good idea if one wishes
to give much time to comprehensive
study of the war But to those who
wish a more condensed account, for in
stance for school use, this is very
important work. Mr.. Foster has dill
gently collected the facts and present
ed them in an entirely new form. In
stead of treating the subject chrome
logically as most historians have done
he writes entirely by campaigns. He
treats fully upon the movements of one
army, before he takes up the discussion
of another.
For instance, a campaign is run out
to its logical results and it's relations
to other events shown, and done in
such a simple and logical way, that it
is easily retained by the student. Most
teachers find this the chief difficulty
with histories, to make the student
comprehend the relation OF different
campaigns to each other. The mind of
the student being so overburdened with
dates, names and facts, makes it almost
impossible for him to retain the events.
The book contains a full set of cO1Ored
campaign maps, original with the auth
or, showing the movements of the arm
les, making it very clear to the stu
dent geographically.
A chapter worthy of mention and a
subject upon which a great many his
tOrians fail to dwell, is that of "Finan-
ciaI Measures. Measures to provide

fact is suppressed that Colonel Little led
the, advance at the. head of his battali9 on
and of the regiment. No mention IS MADE
Of his prominent particip 9 ion in the pat
the hottest fight of the campaign" and
where twenty mine brave Kansas boys
fell. The reader might infer that Little
was in neither of these engagements and
yet in both his comrades will say his gal
1antry deserved special recognition.
Lieutenant Colin Ball is evidently not a
favorite. No mention is made of the fact
that he led the E company squad into
Malolos and that he was the first man
across the Bagbag river. Nothing IS SAID
about Scott. McNulty and Lewis crossing
the Rio Grande bridge nor of Whisners
handling of the men there.
Scott, Boltwood. Hail., Ball, Hardy,
Clarke Whisner, White, Trembly. Dryas-
dale and Wiley evidently should have had
a press bureau. If the reporters who &C
companied the regiment had handled the
news in an impartial and manly way it
would have been better. for everybody in
the long run The book TeviveS the old
fable about the 10th Kansas going to San
Francisco, without uniforms and I'M
equipped, owing to unfortunate mis-
Understanding between Coy. Leedy and
the war department." This IS sheer part-
sanship As matter of fact the 10th
went to San Francisco in better shape
than most other volunteer regiments.
