Literary Activity in tho South
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
 One of the most fourshing industries of what is called the New South" is the writing of books. The output in this in- dustry, so far quantity is concerned, shows that the part of the country south of Mason and Dixon's line is becoming as conspicuous a factor in literary" matters as in the iron, coal and cotton industries. Writing on the statistics of the past twelve months in the Forum, MT. w. B. Wells re- marks: Let us see what the South has done in twelve months from May lSe9 to May 1900, in fiction alone. l have made no minute search, and l claim no bio- graphical completeness. But during the year there has come to my notice the work of twenty-four Southern writers of novels and short stories. Of the twenty-four, fourteen are women, which will account, perhaps for the fact that there are but four full-grown novels in the group, the others being stories, long or short, though many of them fill volume" It is worth while drawing attention to the fact that one of these Southern writers is young woman, the first edition of whose second book was sold out, if mistake not, be- fore 1t was on the market This in itself just goes to show what confidence the read ing public has in the goods produced by this particular author. It also shows her keen sense of what the market wants. So under the circumstances it is only just to admit that there is a real growth of business instinct in what was once a very unbusness-like part of the United States.
 But of course the most shrinking thing about this enormous literary productive ness of the South is this that most of the writers who are rushing into print down there are women. It falls to the fair daughter of many a once conspicuous fam fly to restore the pristine glory of her house by her pen. And wonderful are the results. We hear of one young person who beguiled

The Russian Advance

From the New York Mail and Express.
 Both the logic of her development and the drift of specific events in the east have pointed. the suspicious of the powers to- ward Russia The known policy of the SIav Empire with regard to China has given color to the various Tumors that St. Petersburg was pressing Pekin for author ity to settle the Boxer troubles, that Cos sack troops in overwhelming numbers were ready to march into the disturbed district and even that the Dowager Elm press had taken refuge at the Russian le- gation
 Of the truth of these runors it has not been possible for the rival powers fully to assure themselves. They have been in the dark as to the order in which the different steps of the Russian programme are to un- fold themselves and as to their own rela- tive standings at court. But if English opinion is to be believed Russia has been proceeding with her eyes open. She is bet ter served by her Minister at Pkin than any other western nation, and her peculiar relations with the Manchu official class are supposed to make her instantly cognizant of every European secret that is breathed in the Middle Kingdom, as well as every important move of the Chinese Govern ment.
 The belief that the situation will not eventuate in collision is based on the fact that the power which, directly or indirect ly, has precipitated it is not quite ready to maintain a challenge against its western neighbors It will be from two to three years before the trans-Siberian railroad will enable the Czar to place a great army in farthest Asia. When that time has ar rived, Japanese interests will be as directly menaced as American interests would be if the Kaiser were in the Bermudas. When that time has arrived, and the CZar's boundaries are thousands of miles nearer her great colonies than are her own England must look to her British Columbian and Australian possessions.

The Child Was Gratifed

Some time ago bridge was being built in Constantinople. Being on an important thoroughfare and much needed, the work of construction was pushed night and day.
 When about half done the Sultan ordered that it should be torn down so that a snip could pass The will of the Sultan is law, and the bridge was demolished at an ex- pense of $5OO,0OO, and loss or three months time.
 It was afterwards learned that the ob- ect of the Sultan was to please his httle boy, who had expressed desire to nave a battleship in the front yard where ne coulo see the flag raised. As the people paid the hills the Sultan said 'letergo," and ordered the bridge torn down.
