miral Dewey a few lays ago asking him

An Indiana Novel.

Indiana, during the civil war, was a
center of excitement and significant Incl
dent hardly less important than Washing
ton itself and the region thereabout. No
battles between unionists and rebels were
fought in it's territory. but there was a per-
petual conflict between loyal men and
Southern sympathizers. and intrigues and
conspiracies or the part of the latter for
the purpose of hindering the union cause
were the order of the day. In view of
the fact that so little was accomplished
by these conspirators it is the fashion
now in some quarters to make light of
them, and to assume that their organiza-
lions were of less consequence than was
held to be the case at the time. This was
a wrong theory, as the many now living
who had a thorough knowledge of the facts
can testify. That the knights of the
Golden Circle and other secret fraterni-
ties made up of ''copperheads' or butter
nuts" as the disloyal citizens were called.
did not do more actual mischief was owing
to the vigilance of the Governor of the
State and of those who. worked with him..
Only those who lived in Indiana during
that troublous time and were in position
to know the inside history of affairs. are
aware how close was his watch upon pro-
ceedings in every quarter of the State;
how intimate his acquaintance with what
the conspirators fondly thought to be their
secret purposes. The general public only
know that this great war Governor stood
like a wall between the honor and loyalty
of the State and a condition of anarchy,
but they did not know all the difficulties
of his position.
A history of Governor Morton and his
time has been written, but complete though
it is. it does not give all the tale. 1t has
remained for a novelist to enter into 1t
more deeply. Miss Caroline Brown" of
Charlottesville, has written a story deal
ing with the knights of the Golden Cir
Gle" or, as she happily calls them.
knights of Fustian.' and their doings.
1t is a ~well-writtep tale and extremely
interesting. The author places these
knights in what is evidently the proper
light, historically considered, representing
the rank and file among them as ignorant
of the elaborate schemes of the leaders
and as victims of INSCRIPTIONS intriguers
rather than. as men ready for criminal
acts. Governor Morton forms what may be
called a background to the story, but only
appears incidentally; other actual person
ages figure in the pages, however. and the
book is a curious blending of romance and
history. 1t has the attraction of adven-
ture and sentiment which belong to the
one. and the facts which make the other.
We are so accustomed to historical novels
dealing with remote periods that one treat
ing of the events of less than forty years
ago is unique, and the successful accom-
p%lishment of the work opens a new field
TO fiction writers. knights in Fustian'
is a notable addition to current literature.

When You Buy Dollies.

A father was commissioned by

little bisque dollies. Her instruc-

"See here, Ethel" he said at
last, "I'm afraid I'll make some
awful mistake. Don't you think
you'd better wait until your cold
is better, and then you can go in
to town some day with mamma
and pick out the doll babies for
