AN ARTISTS STORIES.
PAINTING INDIAN PRINCES UNDER DIFF
FICULTIES.

WITH PALETTE IN EASTERN PALACES BY
r. NJ. Merrck. 12mo., PIP. 190. Imported by
Charles Scribners Sons.
These notes of a woman painters experience
in India are set down with sprightliness. but
with no straining after literary effect. Miss
Merrick appears to have talent and common
sense; she undoubtedly has humor; and if we
may trust the evidence of the frontispiece she
has good looks. These agreeable possessions
Joined to excellent introductions gave her un-
usual opportunities to ply her art among dis
tingushed people in the East.
One OF these personages was Lord Roberts, at
that time only Sir Frederick Roberts. AS here
portrayed the Commander Chief is a kindly
little man. keenly interested in billiards-play-
ing, as he said, 'the Roberts family against
the world"-and oddly averse to cats. So great
was his antipathy, indeed. that he always asked
New-York tribune., 1900-07-29

In the fiction of NJ. Paul Bourget there is
little which we would advise the American
novelist TO emulate. Even at his best be is apt
TO be too morbid. When he fishes truth up
from the bottom of the well he gives it to us
more or less stained by the soil there. But in
the making of his books Nj. BOurget observes
one practice which might well be generally
adopted in this country. He affixes to every
one of his productions, no matter how brief the
date Of its composition. Usually he gives also
the place. In some cases. when n story or
essay has occupied him in divers times and
places, he indicates them in his superscription.
This adds greatly to the interest of the reader
who is not content with what lies on the sur
race, but likes to penetrate to the innermOst
workings of the authors mind. If criticism has
been correctly described as the adventures of q
soul among masterpieces all literary art may
be taken as Illustrative of a souls adventures:
and how much more clearly we NAV discern
the adventures when we have dates for our
guidance! collection of short stories offered

NEW YORK. Dec Is. A conviction
tive Cutburst, involving, as 1t did, mgA
grade railroad stocks, had more SlgnlH-
canoe than the apparent imminent renet
to the money market on the forthcoming
enormous disbursements by the govern
ment and corporate interests. The street
having in mind the successful deal in the
anthracite coal industry was inclined to
regard with some credence the various
rumors afloat as to the absorption OF re-
presentation in government boards CT
railroads having favorable geographical
locations. This policy for a community
of interest is expected to bring about
more stable economic conditions and re-
duce to a minimum the possibility OF
rate wars.
At the opening pronounced advances
were made on various. stocks, but depfes-
sion was noted in others, and 1t was not
till after the publication of the bank
statement that the advance assumed any
violence The statement showed an in
crease In surplus reserved Of S524. E59, oW-
ing to reduction in deposit liabilities OF
$18,376600. and a smaller decrease IN cash
than had been loked for, say S3,969,9O0 A
decrease in loans of $13, So, 500 was some
what inexplicable. but may have been
due in part to calling of loans early IN
the week. This showing was regarded
with favor and the market became very
animated and broad. Suhstantiai gains
were made in the Pacific, St. Paul, Sugar.
Atchisons and Brooklyn Transit. Union
Pacific and Northern Pacific ruled at
about parity until just before the close.
when excited buying of the latter rushed
it up to 7e15, compared with tzfS, yeSter
days close. The earlier heaviness of the
steel stocks was dispelled and they closed
with small gains. Speculation left OIL
with buying very confident and the ten
dency upward.
