Mrs. Hemphill, as chairman ~ the
day. had arranged for a review OF the
poets studied during the year, and
choice selection Of poems with interest
ing bits from the biographies OF each
poet was given by the members.
An election Of officers followed the

vice president. Mrs. Rawlins: secretary.
Mrs. II. w. Brown; treasurer, Mrs.
Miller; critic, Mrs. Arthur Brown: his
tOrian, Mrs. Spencer. A diversion from

original poems; one an anonymous con-
tribuuon written as sort Of celebra-
ton ode In honor OF the occasion. and
the other by Mrs. Dale, who rendered
her report as historian in the following
bit Of clever verse;
In ancient days the table round.
Gathered King Arthur's knights
Their yarns TO tell OF maIdens saved.
And brag OF bloody fights.
But while each month our club has met
Around the festal board,
It's not with objects such as this
These tales Of lance and sword.
Our aim has been. in humble ways
Though others may not know IT.
10 con each month. the master works
OF at least one long haired poet.
Our membership Is limited,
Sixteen the quota fills
And a gorgeous monthly show we make
with our furbelows and frills.
Some fears, ST first, We're oft expressed
Refreshments might divert
Attention from the lovely verse
And the poets feelings hurt.
But we have learned to deity mix
Fried chicken with a ballad
Ana sonnet or lovely verse
Go well with lobster salad.
Nine helpless bards the current year
Have each been done by turns
our entre--Willlam Bryant
And desert-poor Bobby Burns.
Ana none so old, or none so young
Nor with dialect too frighttul
but soon or late they make course
Served with our lunch delightful.
Inc other poem is a longer one and
mas more Of a personal nature.

France, and his volumes, this being the
fifth, have the charm of freshness and
literary style. The present work deals with
Napoleon when he was most successful,
when his power was felt In Europe, when
his throne was most secure. He has just
defeated Austria in the war for the liberia
ton of Italy and has come to enjoy the
fruits Of that victory. Italy Is his staunch
ally. The alliance has opened the eyes Of
northern Europe. The court at Paris be-
monarch The sheen Of success is over all.
Nothing clouds the horizon to forecast the
downfall of decade later. Napoleon Is in
his prime as man and emperor and pre-
sents a fascinating figure for the student of
almost contemporaneous history. Incident
ally this volume treats at some length or
Garibaldi. his character as a man and his
achievements as soldier and statesman.
SHADOwINGS. By Lafcadio Hearn. lecturer
English Literature In the Imperial University,
Tokyo, Japan; author OF ''Eaotics and Retro
spects' lin Ghostly japan" etc. Boston:
Little, Brown Co.
LafcadIo Hearn has identified himself
with Japan quite as closely as Sir Edwin
Arnold. His later writings are permeated
with the Japanese flavor, until 1t seems as
though 1t has become his own. He has
done western readers a great service in
translating some of the legendary stories
OF the soil, illustrative of the superstitons
and the religious faith of the Japanese
The strong tendency of these people toward
absolute confidence in reincarnation, in the
appearance of departed spirits and the like
is here reflected. 'Shadowings Is not alto

of 1t consists OF translations or renderings
of few fables and legends: another sec

names and with old japanese songs. while

ALICE OF OLD v1NCENNEs By Maurice Thomp
son. illustrated. Indianapolis: The Bowen-
Merrill Company.
The demand for romantic literature based
upon American history has led to the un-
covering of many an interesting episode
which has heretofore been regarded as Of
no literary Importance. doubtless because
greater events have been overshadowing.
The present story is based upon Col George
Rogers Clark's campaign, which resulted In
the capture of Vincennes and the conquest
of the northwest territory. The love inter-
est is strongly developed, and while the
narrative is provokingly sluggish at times
and uneven in development, the general
result is novel Of more than the usual
works. Evidences of hasty composition
here and there attest to the great pressure
under which the market is now being sup
piled with fiction.

1.-THE salt-box house" is an architectural
type. so-called from its resemblance to the
old-fashioned salt box which occupied q
place in the chimney Of old New England
kitchens. Around the house thus chosen as
symbol of the life Of century and more
ago the author has clustered memories Of
the period, descriptions Of the manners,
amusements, religious practices, social OBJ
servances, politics and personalities Of the
time prior to and during the revolution.
There is bare suggestion of narrative to
the extent that the fortunes Of a single
fanaily are followed. But there Is no at
tempt at story making. thus leaving the
writer free to wander at will among the
records Of that quaint and interesting
period.
FAIRIES AND FOLK OF IRELAND. BY William
Henry Frost. illustrated. New York: Charles
Scribner's Sons. Washington: Brentanos.
Ireland Is pre-eminently land of legend
1t Is densely populated with good people,
as the fairies called in folklore. Tales
of the doings of these gnomes abound in
the literature Of the green isle, and 1t was
a happy thought when Mr.. Frost conceived
the plan of assembling a large number of
these fables and arranging them around q
story of the fortunes of a group of big
people" The latter emigrating to the
states, the fairies accompany them out of
sheer affection, and their. adventures afford
many amusing situations. Mr.. Frost re-

AQUEDUCT BRIDGE REPAIRS.
Progress Of the Work on DAMAGED
Pier,

Colonel Allen, the engineer officer in
charge of the improvement of the Potomac
river. reports that the work Of repairing
the damaged pier of the Aqueduct bridge
is well under way. During the past month
the contractors removed the remainder Of
the debris from the foundation area, placed
ffty-five cubic yards of concrete footing
and began the construction of new mason-
ry. The surface of the rock bed, although
quite irregular, Colonel Allen says was
shaped into an excellent foundation by the
removal Of about seven cubic yards Of
rock. He says, however, that the masonry
work has not progressed so rapidly as de.
sired. The lower two courses and a por-
ton of the third course, about 150 cubic
yards in all, had been laid up to the begin
ming of October.
