THE CONSERVATIVE REVIEW.
A Literary Enterprise Which Is Meet
ing with Success

Literary Enterprise Which is Meet
ing with Success.
The third issue of the Conservative Re-
view, being number l of volume 3 is now
on the book stands, giving evidence of the
continued and growing success of an i'm
portant local enterprise. This quarterly is
designed as an organ of the conservative
section of the democracy, sometimes known
as the gold wing. 1t is, however, not ex-
clusively devoted to political affairs, for It
contains proportionate amount of general
reading of a high class of literary merit.
The range of the periodical is we'll illus
trated by the contents of the current num-
ber as follows:
'Dreyfus and the Jewish Question in
France. by James B. Eustis: George
Borrow by Cyrus Adler, Phi 1.-The Col
The Institutional Origin of American
Slavery by James Curtis Ballagh, Phi D. !;
Charles Stewart Parnell'' by Alfred
Webb; The Beginning of the American
Bassett, Ph.D.; Emilio Castelar," by
Charles Warren Currier; "Henry's Place in
the Telegraph by Mary A. Henry; THE
West Indian Archipelago" by F. 3. San
born; James Russell Lowell by W. NJ
Gamble; art vs.. Richard Wagner" by
Jesse Lewis Orrick; The Samoan Islands, -
by Mrs. Elizabeth Wormeley Latimer.
The Conservative Review is published by
the Neale Company of this city, and pre-
sents handsome appearance, Topographic
ically. 1t is based in its "get-up" on this
Edinburgh Review, and especial attention
Is given to the Improvement of the material
dress in which it is presented. The article
in the August number by former Minister
James b. Eustis, relating to the Jewish
question in France is Of exceptional value
at this time. while the articles on the West
Indian archipelago and the Samoan Islands
bear closely upon current topics of general
interest

AUTOMOBILE DELIVERY WAGONS.
Parker. Bridget & Co. Adopt tn,
HOrselcss Vehicle.

HOrSeEcSS teh1cle.
The automobile is being used quite ex-
tensively by many of the larger retail en-
poriums in large cities for the delivery of
packages. for which purpose it is claimed
to be invaluable, performing the duties in
one-third the time required by the old de-
livery system. Messrs. Parker Bridget &
Co. have adopted the automobile for this
purpose. Their first horseless wagon,
which was received last Friday, was con-
tracted for several months ago and was
especially built to their order. 1t Is a beau
tiful wagon Of the highest class and has
already proved to be quite an attraction.
The first actual road test of the machine
was made last Sunday, when the wagon
was run to Cabin John bridge Although
making fifteen stops. it covered the dis
lance in one hour and five minutes, which
is excellent time, considering the poor con-
dition of parts of the road and the great
number Of stops made. The automobile is
but another finger pointing to the illimit-
able progress of mankind, and, like the
electric railway, has come to stay. Other
Washington merchants will doubtless fol-
low the example of Messrs. Parker, Bridget
& Co. by installing the automobile system
of delivery as a substitute for the horse
and wagon.

KERNAN'S LYCEUM THEATER.-The
Victoria Burlesquers, which has attained
such popularity as an amusement organ
ization under Ed. F. Rush, opened its en-
gagement at Kernan's yesterday, and large
audiences welcomed the well-known organ
izaton at both performances. While not
as strong as last year the performance is
none the less acceptable and it was evident
from the generous applause that it was sat-
isfactory.
The company started right in to entertain
and presented that popular Hibernian team

evening performance kent the audience
heartily amused. The opening scene wit

and the evenings fun was begun with
chorus and solo singing. Leader Simmons

liant Comedy Quartet. received the plaudits
of the audience. Then came a particularly
clever dancing turn by Clark Gibbs. jr.,
followed by a very funny afterpiece that
closed the performance.
Glen Echo is to have a number of new
attractions added very shortly. and among
the additional features brought out last
night was the installation of a new dance
orchestra, now ranking the largest fur

ments on the ground, numbering about a
score, We're all well patronized. and the
patronage of the visitors evidences how
popular Glen Echo's amusement features
are becoming.

fairness has always pleased me. Your ar
ticle upon photographing lynching mobs in
the south is most exceilent only it does
not go quite far enough. There are two sides
to every question, and when you start your
man out with his camera, please instruct
him to take snap shots of the vile rapes
and murders which prompt the lynchers.
