Mrs. Nation.

Mrs. Nation.
When Mrs. Carrie Nation
Ignores all explanation,
Or lively occupation,
With due elaboration.
And grim determination,
She leaves her habitation
And makes a demonstration
Against intoxication.
She scOrns expOstulatiOn,
Ignores al Explanation,
Futs AK in operation
At every liquor station
That comes in observation,
And there's no hesitation
Until the devastation
Has reached it's termination.
There's sudden agitation,
There's widespread CONSERVATION;
There's fiery indignation
Ger "bOoze" in percolation;
But Mrs. Carrie Nation
Displays no trepidation;
In fact, her conversation
Is full of exHltation.
With sorrow and vexation,
And sad-eyed contemplation
Of work of ruination,
The man whose occupation
Had angered Mrs. Nation.
Makes heated declaration
That he'll start litigation
And get remuneration.
No sign of perturbation
Is shown by Mrs. Nation,
For to her habitation
She goes in jubilation,
And VOWS that ruination
Will have continuation
Till Kansas legislation
Has stopped intoxication.

Ralph M8rlowe," d novel by James Ball
Naylor, is in some respects the very worst
book of the year. In other respects ii Is
original enough to be noteworthy, and
quaint and humorous enough TO be anus
ing. The author announces that ii is no
purpose novel, but the statement was
hardly necessary to anyone who has read
it even half through. The fact is that
both author ana publishers apparently
think they have produced another David
Harum,' but they have not quite done II.
In The first place, the proOfreading is
fun of errors, and those Of somewhat
striking kind. Moreover, there are glaring
faults in grammar and rhetoric and the
hero is an unmiugated, unbearable cad OF

variety-a young man who lectures his
employer, reforms his companions. and
generally considers himself the Admirable
Crichton for the whole town. Meanwhile
nc wraps about himself a veil Of impene-
trahle gloom and more or, less Byronic
melancholy, and is duly admired by every
body for that and other qualities. He
talks stflted schGolboy rhetoric and acts

The interest lies in the minor Characters

"A History of Political Parties in the
United States by James II. Hopkins IS
described in the subtitle as AN account
of the political parties since the founda-
ton of the Government, together with a
consideration of the conditions attending
their formation and development, and
with a reprint Of the several party plat
forms.
1t is an interesting book but rather
loosely written, and the style is in TO
sense that of a historian. Its chief value
lies in the fact that it contains a good
deal of information not before brought
together in this form, and now made
convenient as a work of reference There
are many picturesque details, skillfully
introduced
For example, here is comment on the
Harrison campaign against Van Buren.

the book and it's aim;

the uproar produced by skiliful the

campaign. This was the first
of many nominations for expediency,
and its success probably caused those
which followed. Webster, Clay, ana
Other really great men OF the party
had been pusreu aside in order that
the party might win. Harrison was
not presented as the representative OF
any great principle; there had peeh
no declaration of principle by the cor
yention which nominated him. II was
solely an effort to obtain power ana
patronage by adventurous circum-
stances, and it marked the deNeloP.
rnent of that intense party spirit
which made success the supreme con-
sideration.
II will be seen that the author not only
chronicles events, but endeavors to show
their significance in the history OF po-
litical parties CNew York: G. T. Put

LITERARY NOTES.

Admiral RobIey d. Evans has written
book which is called "A Sailors Log" O
which it is said:
His earlier years afford charming
picture of Nirginian life before the
war, from which the reader passes to
thrilling incidents of Indian fighting
and buffalo hunting on the plains,
while the boy was on his way TO Utah
to qualify for an appointment at An
napolis. The approach of war, the
varied phases of service, the bloody
and dramatic assaults upon Fort
Fisher, and the picture sketChed in
cidentally of the gallant young officer
undaunted by wounds, offer chapters
of most vivid interest. In the pages
which follow the reader passes from
hunting trips in China, adventures
with cobras in Singapore, or war
clouds in Japan, to tales of ghosts in
the Mediterranean and land cruises in
Liberia and southern Africa An inner
view is given of the acute Chilean diff
ficulties which nearly led to war,
and another fresh chapter of history
is told in the graphic accounts OF the
clever strategy and ceaSelesS vigilance
which demoraliZed the pirates of the
north on the sealing grounds The
reader is introduced to the inception
of the new navy, to the development
of the Ordnance Department and work
of the Lighthouse Board, and to other
phases of professional work which are
sketched in language singularly elo-
quent, simple, and graphic. AT the
opening of the Kiel Canal Admiral
Evans saw much of the German En-
peror. and personal recOilections of
the Kaiser NIL many most entertain
ing pages. A poem by Kipling
and fresh sketch of intimate
experiences in the Spanish war
are among the many brilliant fea-
lures of this remarkable book. A
Sailors Log depicts the old navy I'M
der sail and the transition to the navy
under steam, and the modern battle
ship. AS a midshipman Admiral Ev-
ans learned to go aloft and furl sails;
as captain he has commanded the
cruiser New York and the battleships
Indiana and Iowa. His book suggests
the extent and value of a naval Off
Ger work.

Grey pilgrims without pouch or staff
or dust-stained robe or cookie shell.
Seek We the path TO some lost shrine
Here in the desert grim as hellf
No arched cathedral dome bends down,
The earth Is iron, the sky IS brass,
IT'S ages since these blistered sands
Forgot the touch Of flower and grass.
Stern penance do We for old wrong
Mayhap, or saintship seek from pain,
With supplant hands that never win
The benson Of cooling rain.

That once in old Perugia stood.
We bear your serried scourges high,
A fagellante brotherhood.

It's etymology is not clear. There Is
