 "In Old New York" Is a romance by Wilson Barrett and Elwyn Barron. MT. Barrett the actor writer, has already achieved notable reputation as an au-
 thor, and his work is always readable and well received.
 In his new book "In Old New York he has given his readers romance of great vigor and interest, dealing with the history of the English-Dutch colony at the stirring period before the outbreak of the war of the Revolution. As is we'll known, MT. | Wilson Barrett is one of the most promi- nent actors on the American stage. MT.
 Elwyn Barron is a Chicago journalist on the editorial staff of the Inter-Ocean He has written "The Viking" a drama in blank verse, and several novels. The work
 of the two authors in collaboration is a strong piece of work.
 Among the latest published novels Is one by Andrew Balfour winch deals with the times of Napoleon the first and is entitled Vengeance is Mine"
 | One of the most delightful pieces of flc- l ton recently published is "The Soul and The Hammer" by Lima Bartlett Ditson. The title is a peculiarly appropriate one for the story deals in a very tender way with the soul suffering and sorrow of a woman. Paris is the scene of the story and the ! author says in her preface that most of her characters taken from real life: while "Adrienne" is my realization of ] womanhood in all it's purity and beauty" The story is interesting and attractive
 from the very first page: is exceedingly well told with a style that is easy and graceful. "The Soul and The Hammer" is destined a cnln w. W. Jacobs has published several hu- morous stories of sea life which have proved great favorites.

 Frederic Remington the popular artist and illustrator. whose best work for many | years was devoted to depicting the free | life of the west, has recently taken to ad- | ding a most delightful text: just in the way, one presumes, of illustrating his pie lures. His books have all been immediate and popular sellers, and now he has just published another volume that will cer- | tainly succeed. The peculiar title, "Men With the Bark On" is presumably taken from the quotation, "Men with the bark
 on die like the wild animals unnaturally -unmourned and even unthought of most- ly." The book contains some dozen sketches with a number of illustra tions that are examples of Mir. Remingtons best pen work. The authors varied expeur- ence give picturesque quality to such work as he has here produced, and the stories have peculiar faeination that is all their own.

MINISTER WU ON BOXERS
He Thinks it Probable, from the Name
 They Are Athletes

Washington, May S1.-Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese minister, appears to be uniformed about the character or even the existence of the organization of persons in China just now veXing the representatives of several countries and compelling the powers, hav- ing naval forces near Pekin, to send marine guards to that city to protect the legations of the diplomatic officers. The attention of the minister was directed today to some publications touching the operations of the Boxers and the deduction that had been made by writers that the revolution indi- aa-<t a breaking up of the empire.
 'fhere can be nothing in that" Mir. Wu replied. q do not want to discuss the ques- ton of the relations between China and the rest of the powers. This Boxer disturb ance is new thing to me. I have heard nothing from my government on the sub ject, and I cannot judge it's proportions from newspaper dispatches. From not knowing China, the writers of the dis patches may eXaggerate the movement. It seems to me to be a local disturbance, which does not involve any broad interna- tional questions. l know nothing of what the Boxers are"
 What does the term signify in China ?" was asked
 'I presume" the minister replied, that the name comes from athletics. men who box are athletes. l see by the Chinese papers that the organization is called 'Yee Ho Chuan.' which signifies righteousness, harmony and fists. This probably means what you would call being in training as athletes are to develop their strength in the interest of harmony and righteousness. It is a new order to me-

faithfully attended to his duties; when not engaged in work he spent bis time in play ing his flute and in writing. About this time he completed his first work, Tiger Lilies," which he wrote in three weeks time. Although it is rather crude in form, his wonderful genius shines forth with rich promise.
 After leaving Montgomery Lanier had charge of a large private school at Pratt vile, Ala. In 1867 he was married to Miss Mary Day of Macon. Great happiness re- suited from this union, for Mrs. Lanier was an inspiration and blessing to her husband all through his life For this long contf- dence and devotion, Lanier was deeply grateful, and several of his most beautiful poems are dedicated to his worshtptul sweet wife
 Only a short month from his wedding he had d violent hemorrhage, which caused hIm to give up his position at Prattville. His father was very anxious for him 10 study law; this he did and was admitted to the bar. At this time there was a rapid failure in his health; the dreaded disease, consumption, set in and he went to New York for medical aid. By the advice of physicians he at other times sought balmy climates for his health, Texas, Florida and North Carolina. Knowing that at best his life was short, he fully determined to turn his genius to account, and so with his pen and flute he went north and resolved to de-
 
 He made Baltimore his home, and was engaged as first futst in the Peabody Symphony Concerts. During this time he made a study of Anglo-Saxon and put his knowledge of this into effect by delivering lectures in literature to young ladies in private parlors. One course of these lec- lures is to be published in the June number of Self Culture" The theme is Domestic Life In the Time of Shakespeare" Then our own Lanier will once more lecture to school girls. Eagerly indeed will Anniston college girls hail him as their teacher.
 These lectures led to Laniers employ ment by Johns Hopkins university as lec- turer. Here, although his health was rav- aged by consumption he continued his works, featuring, studying, writing and keeping his place in Peabody concerts.
 Hoping, almost vainly, to build up his health, Lanier, accompanied by his wife, went to the mountains of North Carolina. But his life was nearing it's close, and in August, 1881, at Lynn, Polk county, the end came. The poet passed to the Para disc side of the River of the Death" There mounts the winged song, there
 glows
 The ardor white of rare Lanier- How sweet the wind that hither blows. His voice rang fearless to the close,
 He sang deaths cup with cordial cheer The river flows, how softly flows;
 How sweet the wind that hther blows"

English Women Play Solitaire.

Ladies Of the royal court of England. from the queen down, are playing the old-time game of patience, known as solitaire ill this country. Every spare minute is taken up with one or the other of the hundred varieties of the game. Patience boards, enabling one to play the game on the knees, are covered with colored satin, embroidered with various suits of the cards. Poek~ cts are arranged for the pack. and a book of directions accompanies each board. The board enables the player to stop game at any point and return 10 it later without losing Der place. But it is doubtful if the fad will take in this country. It requires a vivid imagination to conjure up such a spectacle as roomful of American women playing solitaire.

THE SPORT OF KINGS.
They Were Too Much for the Shippers
 Sentative of the Tradition.

Hunting used to be called the sport of kings, but not many of the mt .ern crowned heads keep up the old tradi- tien. The Czar of Russia occasionally assists at a battue, but the thing bores him and he goes only out of politenes5 The prince of Wales is a very good shot and is fond of snooting, but his big-game days are over. The emDarot of Germany hunts and shoots a sod deal. but those who know him best say he does not much care for the sport
 With him it is a matter of tradition the right thing for royal parsonage to do. The king of Portugal, who holds the record for fatness among all the royalties, is physically disabled from such violent exercise. The king of Sweden never touches a gun. The sul- tan of Turkey cannot bear to see one, says the New York Commercial Adyer- tiser. Tle king Of the BeIgians has shot only once in his whole life, and then in very unkingly fashion. He wanted to have the sensation of killing without the trouble Of going in search of the game So he sat in his arm chair and potted at a lot of rabbits let lose from bag in front of him. When the smoke cleared away and his majesty called fer his bag he had to be told that all that had been found was one tail and certain small quantity of fluff. He never went shooting again. The king of Italy is the only real represen- tative of the old kingly tradition. He is mighty hunter and frequently throws up all the routine work without word of warning, and goes off with one officer Col. Pazzimbolini, to spend several weeks in pursuit of the game of all kinds with which the mountains abound. Formerly he established no means of communication with Rome. Neither Queen Margherita nor any O. his ministers ever knew where to find him for weeks at time. He might nave lost his throne in a sudden up- heaval and known nothing of it till he descended to the plains. Of late, however, he has become wiser. Now & carrier leaves Rome every second day during his expeditions, bringing re. ports of all that happens.

Lake of sulphurio Acid.

It may be difficult to believe in the existence of a lake of sulphuric acid, but. according to Tit-Bits, there is such a lake in the center of Sulphur island, off New Zealand It is fifty acres in extent, about twelve feet in depth and fifteen feet above the level of the sea. The most remarkable characteristic of this lake, however, is that the water contains vast quantities of hydro chlcric and sulphuric acids, hissing and bubbling at temperature of 11o degrees Fahrenheit. The dark green colored water looks particularly un- inviting Dense clouds of sulphurie fumes constantly roll off this boiling caldron, and care has to be exercised fn approaching this lake to avoid the risk of suffocation. On the opposite side of the lake may be seen the tremendous bloWholes, which, when in full blast. present an overlapping sight The roar of the steam as it rushes forth into the air is deafening, and often huge bow1ers and stones are hurled out to height of several hundred feet by the various internal forces of na- ture.

FEEL EARTHQUAKE COMING
Animals seem to Have Sixth senRs
 Few People Possess.


 When. in December, woman refus- ed to remain more than one night at Amalfi, saying she was sure that the earth was moving, and when next day the landslip occurred. it was said, Here, at all events, one human being with the premonitory sense of earth quakes, with which most animals ap- pear to be endued'' 1 have been told of instance after instance of horses, dogs, a monkey, and even ducks, who showed unmistakable signs of panic for a day, two days, and even longer, be- fore the last great earthquake in the Riviera. Only to name few: A wom- an at Nice remarked the miserable con- dition of the horse she usually drove, and told her eoachman to take him home and order a brougham from the livery stables for her. The hired horse was as timid, and seemed as weak, as her own. The driver said all the an- imals were of their feet" A mon key, two tame ducks and other pets, at villa near Villefranche, on the Shrove Tuesday-the day before the shock which destroyed so much life and property&refused to enter the house, where they were generally very happy. They were all spiritless, dull and scared. A little white lap dog, who sat on the wide arm of his mas ters chair at meals, and was the most sociable of pets at all other times, re- fused also to "come home to roost. ," Other dogs also evinced an unwonted terror of being under a roof. Cattle belonging to the dairies supplying the winter resorts sickened and seemed or-strieken-the quantity and quail ity of the milk suffering considerably The woman of Amalf is thought to owe her presentiment to hypersensi- tiEeness of nerves, which gave her a share of this sixth sense" which the animals possess.-London News.
