''Last Songs from Yagabondia'' is soon to
appear from the press OF Messrs. Small May
nard & Co. 1t is quite supertuous 10 add that
it was written by the late Richard Hovey and
Mr.. Bliss Carman. The title OF the book strikes
US as being oddly pathetic, although it had been
selected some time before the de9th Of Mr..
Hovey In Last Songs from VgCdbOndia" each
poem is to be followed by the initials of its
author. This suggests that il would be a very
excellent idea to follow the same plan in forth
coming editions OF "Songs from Nagabondia'
and more Songs from Yagabondia-' We know
that there is great deal OF curiosity to
which poems we're the work of Richard Hovey
and which were written by Mr. Bliss Carman.
This is especially the case with the delightful

Mr.. Phil May has been to Holland. and in

Joel Chandler Harris appreciation OF the
picturesqueness and quaintness OF the
Southern negro is well known. He writes
thus in an introduction to one Of Mr.. Rus
sells forthcoming books;
A critic was saying the other day that we lack
in this Republic the atmosphere necessary 70 the
production OF really great fiction, and he cited
the reader to the Old World, where there
ruins Of castles and uncovered wrecks Of old
er civilization. But 1t IS clear that the citation
is not to the ruins and wrecks, but TO the his
toric associations which they recall. What we
have lacked hitherto IS not the atmosphere, but
the ewes capable Of perceiving it in the fullness
Of its beauty Fortunately, there are very recent
evidences going on to show that the trained eyes
and the inspired hands have arrived upon the
scene.
The book is Down South collection
of half-tone reproductions of photographs,
studies Of negro life in the South, made by
Rudolf Eickemeyer, jr. There are forty
eight of these that represent many Of the
most characteristic phases of Southern life.
Messrs. Casseli & Co., Limited, OF New

of Miss Charlotte Young has fallen upon
Jessie Manserghs shoulders. The quail
ty which made Miss Young's books read
as eagerly by American as by English
girls, is found in Sisters Three"
